Chapter 50 Another Saint Guard?

After hearing Xino's experience, everyone was immersed in this ups and downs and legendary past, and no one spoke to break the silence. When the young Ms. Mistian stood on the podium and listened to the news from

When the entire city of Sumia cheers and applauds, will she think that many years later, her daughter will repeat this experience to prove that it is not only blood but also some innate persistence that is inherited?

However, in these two stories, in addition to the common emergence and stunning championship, there seems to be another similarity.

"Whether it was Ms. Mistian twenty years ago or Ms. Xino two years ago, although they won the championship, they seemed to have not continued on this path." Ringer's question will be Lei.

La and everyone were brought back to reality: "Is there something hidden in this?"

Yes, why?

Everyone looked at Layla, hoping to get a reasonable explanation from her.

As a good friend of Xino and the only person who knew about this past incident, Layla obviously hesitated, but finally said: "Ms. Mistian's situation is not complicated. When she was interviewed by the media, she once said

She admitted that she only participated in the competition out of interest and did not intend to turn her interest into a career. And after she won the championship, she was quickly pursued by Xino's father, Mr. Leonard, and the two quickly fell in love.

She fell in love and held a wedding at the Villiard Church. After the marriage, although the Gustave family did not restrict her freedom, Ms. Mistian still felt that family life was more important to her, so she put down her racket.

Retired from football."

"As for Xino——"

She paused, and even though she had already spoken, she still seemed a little hesitant: "She decided to put down the racket because of Claire."

Claire?

Wasn't that Xino's teammate when he won the championship? He was also her good friend in college. How good he was, Ringer and others didn't know, but if it wasn't for a very deep relationship, Xino, who was dedicated to keeping a low profile, wouldn't have agreed to her.

He received an invitation to participate in the college championship, right? Moreover, Layla also said just now that the two of them have a perfect understanding on the court, almost like they have telepathy.

Is there something hidden outside the arena that no one knows about?

Alice's eyes widened suddenly. Ringer knew what she was thinking. It was nothing more than a classic plot in some vulgar novels. The close partners turned against each other due to interests, love or other messy factors, and finally parted ways.

Sort of like that. However, the young man felt that this might not be the case, because it was difficult for him to imagine Xino betraying others, and it was also hard to imagine that with her character, she would actually have a sincere heart-to-heart relationship with a person who was not consistent with her appearance.

Leila's next words also confirmed the young man's thoughts, but the reason she gave was even heavier.

If it is not betrayal that makes a person discouraged and even helpless, then there is only another reason - death.

"After the college championship, many clubs offered Claire and Xino an olive branch. Of course, Xino did not accept it. Just like her mother, Ms. Mystian, she participated in the competition only out of interest and never considered it.

Becoming a professional player. But Claire is very happy because her biggest dream in life is to embark on a professional career. She once told us personally that only by standing on the playing field can she find the feeling of being alive.

Participating in the college championship is to take the first step towards this dream."

Layla said that she still remembers this. Although she was just an unknown little player in the club at the time and could not compete with popular players like Xino and Claire, she will never forget the faces of those two when they discussed their dreams.

With a cheerful, enthusiastic and confident expression: "Xino knew Claire's dream and encouraged her to pursue it. He even changed his usual low-key style and actively signed up for the competition in order to help Claire realize her dream.

.So after learning about this, she was very happy for Claire. I still remember that when Claire decided to sign a contract with the club, she invited the entire club to have dinner at the Azure Arc Restaurant to celebrate her.

."

"At that time, all of us felt that Claire would have a bright future. She could go further and further on the road of her dreams until her name was engraved on one championship trophy after another. She had that kind of talent, and she couldn't

Lack of effort - but sometimes, life is full of surprises."

Speaking of this, Layla's voice became extremely low, and there was a sad look on her eyebrows: "It was only half a month after the game, when Claire was busy applying for suspension of school and preparing to go to the club to report...

Suddenly she felt chest tightness, shortness of breath, started coughing and even vomited blood, and even passed out during training. She was then sent to the Central Hospital, where she was diagnosed with severe lung disease."

"Wait a minute!" Lin Ge's face changed slightly, and he interrupted Leila's story for the first time: "You mean lung disease?"

As we all know, apart from physical disabilities, lung disease is almost the biggest blow to an athlete, because no matter any sport, a healthy lung is needed for support. People with low lung capacity are out of breath even when running, how can we ask them to

What about more strenuous exercise? It can probably be said that lung disease is almost equivalent to death in the medical records of athletes - if not death in the physical sense, at least death in the spiritual sense.

But the problem is that such a serious lung disease cannot have any precursors. Half a month before the onset of the disease, Claire and Xino participated in the college championship and won the championship. Could it be said that she was dragging her down?

Did you step onto the field with a seriously injured body?

"That's right, lung disease." Layla knew what Ringer was thinking, and she showed a bitter smile to the young man: "Obviously he was so active on the field, but he didn't look like he was injured at all, right? So we were

I am as surprised as you, Mr. Ringer. He never thought that she would fight to this extent for her dream. Moreover, when she got sick, she was almost terminally ill. Even if the best doctors were invited and the most effective treatments were used,

Expensive drugs failed to save her life in the end."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! A young girl with a bright future fell on the hospital bed and could not open her eyes since then.

The atmosphere in the pavilion was silent for a while, and only Layla's voice could be heard continuing to tell: "Claire... is a very strong person, and I think so until now. From the onset of her condition to the deterioration, and finally to the end Less than a week passed before she died. It must be painful to receive treatment, right? And being unable to continue to hold on to her dream was an unbearable blow to her. But she did not complain, on the contrary, she comforted us. , let us not be too sad... If I were in her position, I would definitely not be as strong as her."

Leila shook her head, feeling depressed: "At that time, Xino was very depressed because of her illness, and she also blamed herself a little. She seemed to take all the responsibilities on herself, thinking that it was because of herself that Ke Claire's condition has deteriorated to such an extent that I even heard her say more than once that it would have been better if she had not agreed to Claire's invitation."

Everyone was silent. With Xino's character, it is natural for her to have such thoughts. For her, the championship trophy she won after working hard is no longer dazzling, but she has pushed her friends to the top with her own hands. A dead end incriminating evidence.

It's hard to imagine that after what she experienced, she can still maintain such an optimistic and cheerful attitude today.

"But Claire didn't think so." Leila said: "At the last moment of her life, Claire was no longer willing to meet us. She said she didn't want her friends to see her in such an embarrassing state, but she only met Xi On that day, the two chatted in the ward for a long time. We don’t know exactly what they talked about. We only know that when Xino left the room, a smile reappeared on his face, although it was a very reluctant one with a smile on his face. With tears and bitter smiles. Later, we attended Claire’s funeral, and at Xino’s suggestion, we buried the championship trophy with her, hoping that she could continue to pursue her dreams even in another world. ."

"After the funeral, Xino returned to her former self. She was optimistic, cheerful, proactive, and humble and polite. She was a perfect girl in every aspect. But she never stepped foot on the court again. She never picked up a racket again, and never even mentioned anything about Feng Hua Qiu. Soon after, she applied for suspension of school with the teacher. On the surface, it was because of family reasons, but I always felt that it was also related to Claire's matter. She was in On the last day of school, she came to the football club to say goodbye to us, and hoped that the president would remove her from the membership list, because she felt that she would never have the chance to come back here. But the president refused her request and persisted in Her name was retained on the list, and since she only took a break from school and did not drop out, the school also retained her student status."

"In the past two years, whether it is me, the president, other members of the football club, teachers or professors, I have always been looking forward to her coming back one day, but as the days go by, she is always so persistent. We all know that we can't change her mind, so even if we occasionally visit her at Chatoli Manor, we don't dare to bring up this topic. As long as Xino remains the same optimistic and cheerful Xino, it's best for us News.”

After finishing this lengthy narration, Layla raised her head and smiled at Linge and others: "To be honest, when I saw Xino appearing at the registration point of the championship, I thought it was an illusion. If she

She has really stepped out of the shadow of the past and is willing to pick up the racket again. All of us will be happy for her. But even if that is not the case, it will be good. At least she does not avoid mentioning anything about Fenghuaqiu like before. I

I think this is more or less a change, thank you."

She finally thanked everyone, her tone full of sincerity and sincerity. Everyone knew why she thanked her, but her mood became even heavier. Saint Xalia shook her head gently and said: "It has nothing to do with us, Xino

She came out of this shadow on her own, because like you said - she is a strong girl."

After saying this, the green-haired girl pursed her lips slightly. What came to mind at this moment was the scene that night when Xino said to her "I am actually very afraid of death" with a melancholy and guilty expression, but she

What she was afraid of was not her own death, but the fear of others dying in front of her, but she was powerless to do anything about it.

It turned out that not only was she afraid, but she had experienced it herself, or in other words, she was afraid precisely because she had experienced it.

The girl sighed silently in her heart.

The atmosphere in the pavilion was a little silent for a while. Seeing this, Layla didn't want the guests to be immersed in the stories of the past like herself. She was about to open her mouth and change the topic to other things. At this time, a voice suddenly came from not far away.

A familiar voice: "Leila, everyone, I have completed the registration."

Everyone subconsciously raised their heads and saw the girl with burgundy eyes walking towards the pavilion with a bright smile. The snow-white ponytail behind her head swayed, almost touching the lush green grass growing on the green ground. Her

The smile looked so dazzling under the midsummer sunshine that everyone was stunned for a while.

"What's the matter, are you all here in a daze?"

Xino herself didn't have much self-consciousness. She joked after walking into the pavilion, then handed Alice's amateur certificate (fake) and a round copper sign to her, and said: "This is your grouping and competition.

Let me take a look at the number. P-1120, which is the 1120th contestant in Group P. I remember that the maximum number of people in a large group is 3,000. They will be divided into groups according to the schedule and results. This is only the first round.

.If you want to stand out from these three thousand people and participate in the next round of competition, you have to work hard, Alice."

After saying that, she turned her eyes to Layla again: "As for Layla, I don't need to worry about it. For you, getting out of the round is just the expected result. The real goal should be to place in the main competition, and you can even fight for thirty-two

A strong or top 16 ranking."

"No, no way!" Layla kept her head down and her face flushed. Just now she felt that Xino's past had been exposed and she was embarrassed to face her, but now she was a little shy after being praised by her: "

I'm not as strong as you, Xino, as long as I can get a spot in the main competition, my goal has been achieved for me!"

"Don't say that, Leila." Xino smiled and stretched out his head, rubbing Leila's head: "You have to believe that you are very powerful. After all, you are the champion of the Four Schools United Cup, not only in Sumia City

, ranked first among college students in the entire Saint-Denis province!"

"Well, that competition... is not big, so it doesn't count..."

While Leila hesitated, she rubbed her head against Xino's palm, and a cat-like expression of contentment gradually appeared on her face.

"..." Alice looked at Xino, then at Layla, and suddenly felt that this scene was inexplicably familiar. She asked curiously: "Is there someone called the Saint Guards in your Sumia University?"

Club?"

"Eh!?"
