Qi Lin knew that he had asked the wrong question and looked a little embarrassed. He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but when the words came to his lips, he didn't know how to express them.
After all, Xu Yunlong's pain is involved. Although he usually doesn't think about people that much, he is also not an idiot, and he still knows how to take into account the feelings of others. And he also knows the pain of losing a loved one. When his grandma passed away
, he and Qi Mei both cried all day long.
What's more, Xu Yunlong's parents died, so he must have felt even more uncomfortable.
"Don't talk about this in the New Year." Xu Yunlong came out to smooth things over. "We have a lot to do this year, until July next year. The goal is to enter the top 16 in the world."
"To talk about the top 16, it's too cheap."
Xuanwu's cheeks were slightly red, he was not very good at drinking.
"Then how many names do you want?"
“Number one in the world!”
"Okay! Then aim for the world's number one!" Xu Yunlong also became proud, and even felt that what he just said about the top 16 was too petty. If you want to win the TI championship, how can you not be the world's number one?
!
The night was slightly drunk, the moon and stars were sparse, and the only sounds of laughter and the clinking of wine glasses could be heard from OK's base. On this New Year's Eve, there were no games, no pressure, no annoying things, just laughter.
New year, new beginning.
After the Spring Festival, the continuous wins in second-tier small competitions gave them enough qualifications to participate in domestic first-class competitions with over a million prizes. Some foreign competitions also began to look for them and invite them to play online.
From February to May, although not every day is spent in competition, for Zhu Quehuang and Bai Hu, there is no so-called weekend.
At 8:30 in the evening, in OK's training base, Bai Hu walked out of the hot air filled with gains and losses. Wearing bare feet and slippers, he walked into the living room. At this time, everyone in the living room was passing the time, although they had already eaten.
I washed up after dinner, but it seems a little too early to go to bed now. But
Xiao Qingyue and Leng Muxue had already gone to bed. After all, they spent too much time out on business during the day and were already exhausted when they came back. The grown men were too embarrassed to bother the two girls.
It was time to cook. But fortunately, Qi Mei came to help from time to time, which eased things a bit.
"Xuanzi. Bring me this week's e-sports weekly."
"This is for January."
"Ah, there are mosquitoes!"
"Eeeeeeeee?! No! It's true! I get bitten easily! Look at me killing mosquitoes with my thoughts."
"Do you have type O blood?"
"...Huh...Huh..."
"Stupid pig, don't sleep here."
"...Eh? I-I fell asleep?"
"Wipe your saliva."
After a hard day's competition, all the skills of everyone's brains and bodies are about to stop, so the content of the conversation sounds very lazy.
During this boring conversation, Bai Hu took small steps near the edge of the carpet and sat on the sofa. He silently placed the wet towel on the table, and then took it out of the box on the table.
Nail clippers.
swish swish...
He hugged his knees and slowly polished his nails.
White Tiger's surroundings were filled with a heavy atmosphere of laziness exuded by the OK team members.
"Ah. You actually cut your nails at night."
"Lin can't cut his nails! I saw Meimei cutting them for him!"
"Nonsense, of course I will..."
"ah……"
"Xiaoqiu, what's your name? You need to increase your presence."
"God B, why are you so quiet today..."
"Is there any?"
Everyone said directly what they felt and what caught their eyes. To put it simply, they vented what was in their heads without any disguise. It was not yet nine o'clock, but the people in the living room were already like
It's the same late at night.
"Isn't the light too dim?"
"Will it?"
At this time, do they realize that they are immersed in the warm water called "happiness"? People always enjoy everything unconsciously and then regret it when they let go and say, "Fuck,
I was still happy then..." Maybe, this is what happiness really looks like.
That's right. They didn't realize that they are very happy now. They just won the game and won another championship. Although it was not a lot of bonus, it was already the third championship in a row.
.It is enough to be proud of. So now they are enjoying the feeling of happiness unconsciously.
Until those cursed words appeared...
At 10:23, a seemingly unconscious sentence uttered by one of the six people started the OK Club's descent into hell.
This sentence is...
"...I'm a little hungry."
Until now, no one knows who originally said this sentence.
"That being said, I'm hungry too."
"indeed."
"I'm craving for something to eat too! I'm not full from dinner!"
"Huzi, have you finished the fried chicken legs just now?"
"hehe."
Combining the three major elements of fatigue, joy, and bathing, everyone is currently lazily and leisurely. But as soon as this sentence came out, everyone's eyes lit up instantly, as if this sentence composed of just a few words was too early
It just lingers in their minds, just waiting for the first person to bring it up.
Having great power is like a double-edged sword, which requires people to pay attention, but now no one in this room has noticed the impact of these words, they only focus on the present.
Xu Yunlong threw the half-read e-sports magazine aside, which also said that the SG team had successfully obtained sponsorship at the beginning of the new year, and said seriously: "Okay, let's go shopping."
"Ah? Buying something?"
Zhu Quehuang woke up a little.
"Hmm. What, you want to go?" Xu Yunlong turned to look at Zhu Quehuang.
Zhu Quehuang's eyes were shining and he nodded. He originally thought that things would go smoothly, but unexpectedly, Ye Qiu showed an expression of distrust. He only raised his head, looked at the excited Zhu Quehuang and said: "
Leave it to this guy? No."
"Hey! What do you mean?" Zhu Quehuang was unhappy.
"Yeah. Indeed. If it were left to Xiaozhu, it would indeed feel like a primary school student going shopping on the street."
"Hey, hey? Why did Brother Xuan say that!"
The other three people saw Zhu Quehuang pouting, with unhappy expressions on their faces. Although they sympathized, their thoughts were no different from Ye Qiu's. Forget about the competition, even though Zhu Quehuang blinded the whole audience when he regained consciousness, saving people and moving around.
The gank is even better than Xu Yunlong's, but when he's 2, I really want someone to punch him to death. It's like a burden, and it's automatic atm.
"Then let's guess the game!" Qi Lin finally got the chance to speak.
"Hey, White Tiger, stop cutting and come to guessing."
Hearing Qi Lin's cry, Bai Hu, who was originally calm, slowly raised his head.
"Tsk."
Either because Bai Hu was not hungry or because he was interrupted from cutting his nails, Bai Hu joined the five people in a circle with a look of no interest.
"Okay, here we go~ Rock, Paper, Scissors!"
The next moment, the four people in the living room all cheered. Zhu Quehuang didn't cheer. Because he lost, and he wanted to win. Even if it was a guessing game, he didn't want to lose. Bai Hu didn't cheer, either, because he won. But he didn't do anything.
I don’t want to win in such a meaningless thing!
"Huzi, I didn't expect you to lose in the first round. You're still the only one. It's a bit impressive." Xuanwu sighed.
"It's different from everyone else's. This is a talent. Hurry up and buy a lottery ticket." Qi Lin joined in the fun.
"..." Bai Hu clenched his fist tightly, as if he wanted to break his fingers.
"I didn't expect our solo master to be an errand boy. It's really embarrassing." Ye Qiu sneered and waved his own cloth. Because in the solo competition last month, Bai Hu abused him again.
, so until now, he still holds a grudge.
"Then you go buy it. The shops outside are still open. If you really can't go to the snack street, there is a 7-11 there." Xu Yunlong patted Bai Hu on the shoulder.
"...I know." Although Bai Hu looked reluctant, he had lost after all, and he had to admit defeat.
"Then I'll take the order!" Zhu Quehuang raised his hand.
Bai Hu got up and walked back to his room, took some clothes and put them on himself.
"I want rice balls with mayonnaise and tuna! Three!" Zhu Quehuang was the first to order.
“I’d like rice bowl with tomato, egg and minced meat and beans.”
"I'd like two sourdough loaves."
"I want to eat caramel pudding, banana cake, eel rice balls and strawberry milk."
Bai Hu raised his eyebrows, glanced at Qi Lin, who was probably the thinnest among them, and murmured in his heart why Qi Lin was so good at eating.
"Bring me some stew." Xu Yunlong said.
"Wait a minute, let me write it down first." Bai Hu said, trying to find a piece of paper and a pen, but after looking around, there was nothing he could write down.
"Who can lend me a pen?"
"I'm in the room, I don't want to move." Xuan Wu said honestly.
"Tsk, then..." Bai Hu decided to go back to the room to get pen and paper, but was stopped by Qi Lin who suddenly jumped up.
Qi Lin showed a mischievous smile, came to Bai Hu's side, and said with a smile: "What kind of pen are you taking? I have a good idea..."
Everyone was eagerly waiting for Qi Lin's next words.
"Back it down!"
"ah?"
Bai Hu looked at Qi Lin like an idiot and walked directly to the room, but was stopped by Qi Lin again.
"Hey, hey, solo is a position that relies on IQ. You don't even have this bit of intelligence."
"These are totally two different things."
"It's all the same! The ability to memorize is very important~ How can we give such an important position as solo to someone who can't even memorize it quickly? If you can't do it, just replace me..."
Qi Lin had a triumphant expression on his face, as if he had expected the current situation when he proposed guessing. Maybe he was worried about Bai Hu, so Zhu Quehuang swallowed his saliva and stood ready.
But Bai Hu just frowned. Then he turned to look at Xu Yunlong and said, "Brother Long, tell me what you want."
Wow wow wow, Bai Hu is definitely angry! Looking at Bai Hu's stiff back, Zhu Quehuang knew that he was unhappy.
Qi Lin burst into laughter.
"Forget it. You know how to read. Ah, it shouldn't be said that you can't even read. You often make mistakes in solo. If you can't even buy something, then you really have no shame in staying here."
"You guy..."
"Did I say something wrong?"
Bai Hu and Qi Lin saw lightning and thunder.
Zhu Quehuang looked under the two of them, looking left and right, not knowing how to persuade them. Xu Yunlong and Xuanwu were just doing their own thing, while Ye Qiu watched Bai Hu and Qi Lin quarreling with interest.
.
After a brief silence, Bai Hu took a deep breath and said coldly: "Let me record it for you."
At this moment, the chandelier above the head flashed and made a hissing sound.
After listening to what Xu Yunlong wanted, Bai Hu tied up his sneakers and hurriedly walked out of the entrance. The journey from the OK club to 7-11 only takes about twenty minutes.
However, there are very few street lights in the distance from the house to the street, so the sky looks clearer than on the street. The moon, which is not yet full moon, sheds a silvery light, and the big trees planted next to the villa are blown by the night breeze.
There was a rustling sound under the breeze. The skin that had just been bathed came into contact with the cold air, making Bai Hu feel very comfortable.
To others, he might look like he was taking a pleasant walk after dinner.
But I am not so relaxed.
"Three mayonnaise tuna rice balls, tomatoes, eggs and minced beans, rice bowl, two yeast breads, one caramel pudding, banana cake, eel rice balls, strawberry, milk, egg, spinach cake, two sausages, two beef balls, two
Beef **, three tuna rice balls with mayonnaise, a rice bowl topped with tomatoes, eggs and minced beans, two yeast breads, a caramel pudding, a banana cake, an eel rice ball and a strawberry milk egg spinach cake, two sausages and two beef
Pill two bullshit..."
Bai Hu was muttering in his mouth, repeating what these five people ordered.
Although he didn't want to admit it, he was just not good at memorizing things! So he chose science! Because he only had to memorize such limited formulas. What he hated the most was memorizing texts.
Bai Hu kept walking at a certain pace. As long as the rhythm was disrupted, he was likely to forget one or two things. Therefore, he did not look at unnecessary things or think about unnecessary things. He just repeated this.
On the way.
In any case, this purchase is related to his self-esteem as a solo artist.
Since Qi Lin arrived, he has increasingly felt the gap in talent between himself and Qi Lin.
He doesn't think he is stupid. But Qi Lin is smarter and plays better. No matter how much training time he increases every day, he will lose to Qi Lin in the weekly solo competition.
He felt that it was natural to lose to Xu Yunlong or Xuan Wu. After all, the two old men had much more experience than him. However, Qi Lin could beat him every time, which made his self-esteem as a strong solo player severely undermined.
Tortured severely.
What's more, Qi Lin has always been coveting his position. If Xu Yunlong hadn't said that Qi Lin could only be a substitute, he really felt that he would be killed by Qi Lin in minutes.
Therefore, even if it was such a small matter as buying something, he would find it unbearable if he was provoked by Qi Lin.
"Three mayonnaise tuna rice balls, tomatoes, eggs and minced beans, rice bowl, two yeast breads, one caramel pudding, banana cake, eel rice balls, strawberry, milk, egg, spinach cake, two sausages, two beef balls, two
ox**……"
Bai Hu prayed not to meet any acquaintances on the road, because once he said hello, he would lose his rhythm. Even if he nodded, the things he had memorized would be forgotten in an instant. If he could, he would not even want to breathe.
Stop so you don't forget these things.
"Three mayonnaise tuna rice balls, tomato and egg rice bowl, two yeast breads, a caramel pudding, banana cake, eel rice balls, strawberry milk and eggs..."
However, no matter how much he didn't want to be distracted, what Ye Qiu said just now would still come to his mind.
What does it mean not to trust him? Bai Hu clenched his fists in displeasure. Although he has indeed encountered a bottleneck recently, who would have such a time, right? Although he has been killed inexplicably in whatever heroes he uses recently, this does not prove that he
The strength has declined. It's just a bottleneck.
So Bai Hu decided to complete this mission perfectly and let everyone understand that he is qualified to be the solo position of the OK team.
But how long did it take Baihu to swallow his pride and go out to buy things?
In the base, the five people who were waiting for the return of the white tiger were already staggering around.
"...Xiaoqiu, do you have a Snickers bar?"
"If it's protein powder, I still have half a can..."
"Oh, oh, protein is good... but it won't fill your stomach..." Zhu Quehuang rolled on the ground uncomfortably from hunger.
"Don't go away, I feel tired just looking at it..." Qi Lin was also so hungry that he couldn't see clearly.
"Why hasn't Hu Zi come back yet? Mine is so delicious..." Xu Yunlong was almost bored.
"Who knows..." Xuanwu shrugged.
The five people sat feebly on the carpet, weakly comforting each other. A few dozen minutes ago, they were immersed in the joy of winning the championship, but now, they are only left with bitterness.
"Bai Hu must have escaped and fled back to school." Qi Lin, who was holding his knees beside him, pouted and whispered.
"No. Maybe I got lost?" Xu Yunlong's hand holding the lighter was trembling, but he still didn't light the cigarette.
"Xiao Zhu, go find him." Xuan Wu looked normal.
"Eh? Ah, oh..."
Because he was too hungry and his eyes were dull, Zhu Quehuang stood up unsteadily, put on his clothes and walked out of the base slowly.
"That guy from Baihu seems to be quite smart, but he can be confused sometimes. I didn't know he was a road fool." Xu Yunlong smiled, but it seemed that he didn't even have the strength to smile well.
"But is it okay to let Suzaku go find him? Isn't that guy a roadie?" Ye Qiu asked a very critical question at this time.
As a result, everyone fell into deep thought.
Two dog barks came from the dark window, and the tail sound lasted for a long time before disappearing, pretending to be like a wolf. (To be continued...)
