After leaving the cafe, they walked slowly towards the base.
Xie Yuqing first spoke to the group, then glanced at the silent boy beside her and asked, "Who was that person just now?"
Shen Chen moved his lips, and there was a trace of confusion between his brows and eyes, but he couldn't hold back a word for a long time.
Xie Yuqing continued calmly, "Wan Nan, professional players like you should know about the big news two years ago."
Shen Chen gritted his teeth and said, "I know, but I can't help it."
He stopped and didn't leave.
Xie Yuqing also stopped.
"My dad owes a lot of debt, which cost all my salary! I didn't expect him to touch spinach... He said it was the man who took the initiative to find him." Shen Chen clenched his fists and spoke in the cold wind. I'm shivering, I don't know if it's the cold or some other reason.
"I can't help it...he is my dad after all!"
Xie Yuqing looked at him calmly for a long time, looking down at him before asking, "Are you involved?"
"Wha, what?"
"Have you participated?" Xie Yuqing said slowly, "For example, cooperating with them to crack down on match-fixing."
For a moment, the air seemed to freeze.
After a long time, Shen Chen lowered his head and said calmly, "I, I didn't agree."
"You didn't agree, but you did what they said?" Xie Yuqing grasped the topic, "Send one blood, one dragon. Did you follow this script in the first game?"
Shen Chen explained hurriedly, "I didn't buy it, and I didn't agree. All I wanted to do was help my dad! I didn't expect to lose the second game..."
"Let's go back first." Xie Yuqing made a decision in her heart and brushed his hand away without saying anything more.
Back at the base, Yi Yi was already waiting at the door. When he saw them coming back, Shao Sha nodded solemnly and took Shen Chen back to the office.
The training match was over. She went back to the office and had a voice call with the assistant coach, and then modified the roster to be submitted tonight, changing the top lane position back to Sean.
[Isn’t it Chen who is playing in training matches recently? Why is the junior top laner starting again...]
[The results of the training matches must have been unsatisfactory, could it be a deliberate attack? 】
[Everyone, go watch Harugami’s live broadcast. It doesn’t matter who starts, as long as you can win! 】
…
Because of the rotation, some discordant voices once again arose on the Internet.
It was still very restrained at the beginning, but it wasn't until the second day when they lost 1-2 to last season's runner-up that there was any debate.
[This is the consequence of not trusting the veteran [Bye-bye]]
[You can’t blame Chen Shen for losing the game this time, right?]
[Can certain Poisons climb up? Everyone will be at fault if they lose the game. Personally, I think the small top singles are pretty good.]
[Mainly because Artist is not in good condition today...]
[Can you not mention your A’s father? Your A’s father is leading with last hits and roaming ahead. 】
…
According to the usual practice, if you lose the game, you should make adjustments again.
However, after internal discussions within the club, Xie Yuqing decided to let the junior top laner start.
Unfortunately, The Sky still lost the next game.
At this time, The Sky Index dropped directly from the top of the list to the middle and lower reaches, and the Internet began to criticize it.
It happened that the next day, the club's official blog posted a "Thank you" Weibo, announcing the termination of the contract with Shen Chen, who was on the road, and Shen Chen became a free man.
As soon as this Weibo post was posted, the comment section was completely devastated.
After all, Shen Chen is the champion top laner with a large fan base and a lot of casual fans. When they saw the news of the contract termination, they all questioned and accused the club and asked the club to give an explanation.
You know, Shen Chen is now a free agent, which means there will be no games to play unless he joins another club.
But the top teams are not short of top laners, and the lower-tier teams cannot afford to sign him, so they can only wait until the summer transfer period.
The inside of the club knew the inside story, but the outside world didn't know. When they saw the official blog, they pretended to be dead and refused to give an explanation, so they went to the live broadcast rooms of other players to harass them, forcing the players who had been ordered to die to stop broadcasting.
At the cusp of this storm, a big fan of Shen Chen suddenly posted a few photos with the following text: This kind of mentally problematic and emotionally unstable head coach is not fired, but good players are being insulted and excluded. Why?
The photo shows Xie Yuqing entering the psychiatric department of the hospital, scolding Shen Chen on the roadside, and preaching to the team members.
Although there is no video, in the second photo, Shen Chen lowered his head in silence, while Xie Yuqing waved her hands with a cold face, as if she was going to slap him down, which really makes people think.
For a time, public opinion exploded.
[Sunny is mentally ill??? The Sky E-Sports Club, do you know? 】
[No wonder nine out of ten scenes in the documentary show him losing his temper. This kind of head coach is too scary...]
[Um, can you let the bullets fly for a while? I believe Harugami is not such a person! 】
[I have long said that Qingtian’s brain is not normal! I want to ask the club, will a mentally ill person be retained for the New Year without dismissing him? 】
[Oh my god... I feel so bad for the five treasures who are being suppressed every day. A proud and arrogant person like Chen definitely doesn't want to be oppressed. It would be a relief to leave... I hope I can get a big contract in the summer game! 】
[I just want to know how the club is going to handle this matter?]
…
The private messages exploded.
Fans from both the e-sports and entertainment circles came to question Xie Yuqing's mental condition.
Even though she has a lot of loyal fans, she is still weak in the environment that is criticized by thousands of people.
The most annoying thing in Xie Yuqing's life was the title of "mental illness", so she simply turned off the private message function, thinking that she would just survive the limelight. But at this time, Xu Feiran posted a Weibo with unknown meaning——
[People’s hearts are unpredictable, and some people’s destinations change as they walk together.]
This Weibo was deemed to be dissatisfaction with Xie Yuqing, and many people in the comment area began to scold her and comfort him.
Seeing the conspiracy theory rising to a new level, a phone call woke Xu Feiran from his sleep, and the manager scolded her. Xu Feiran was confused at first, and then realized that his metaphor for Shen Chen had been misunderstood. The head coach’s dissatisfaction.
He quickly checked on Weibo and saw that, good guys, the hundreds of thousands of forwarded comments were basically attacking Xie Yuqing.
Xu Feiran frowned, reposted his Weibo post, and commented -
[I’m not talking about Harugami! Harugami is very good to me and the team! Stop guessing!]
However, fans misinterpreted him as——
"I understand, the child still needs to eat this food."
"..."
Xu Feiran got angry. He got angry in the middle of the night. His brain got hot and he almost wanted to continue posting. Fortunately, the manager called again and he opened his mouth and said——
"Xu Feiran, don't you have a lack of emotional intelligence as a kid? Do you have to stir up trouble and write essays at this time? Do you still want Qingshen to get better?"
"I order you now! Don't talk online! Turn off the microphone! Go to sleep!"
