Chapter 103: Reunion in the Night of Paris

Paris is full of romance.

In particular, the squares on the streets are full of beautiful beauty with ancient sculptures and blooming flowers.

On this night, a gentle drizzle fell.

In the rain, the lovers in the square were watching under umbrellas, and Lu Fei was also watching.

But he is not watching lovers, but CS.

Whenever he encounters failure, he always likes to walk around alone, wandering around, hoping to get some inspiration in thinking.

He has watched the demos of MDK and 4K several times, and the root cause of this failure is the overall tactical problem, and he has realized that the real World Series is not as simple as he took it for granted.

He has never participated in world-class competitions before, and he always feels that if he has seen enough of the demo of the famous team, he must be sure that he can defeat, in fact, this is not the case, maybe the player must make full preparations from the beginning, and make an overall arrangement from the competition system, the game, and the opponent.

These are the things that he Lu Fei hadn't thought about yet, and now he thought about it.

He looked at the warm expressions of those lovers from all over the world under the umbrella in the square, and a smile appeared on his face.

They are all in an ordinary world, but they share a common ideal.

There are things in this world that are like dramas.

Lu Fei stood silently by a fountain in the square for a long time, then turned around and walked back.

In the distance, he saw a man.

The night rain is hazy, and the lights are on, and there is a blue figure in the rain slowly walking towards this side.

Blue clothes, blue umbrellas, a whole body of blue, flowing black hair, and a standard oriental woman's face, everything looks romantic and poetic.

The two stood silently under the umbrella, silently staring at each other.

It took a long time for Lu Fei to come up with such a sentence: "Have you eaten?" ”

Erin Yanran said, "If you want to have a treat, I am very happy to go." ”

Lu Fei let out a long sigh, of course he didn't expect that they would meet each other here again, he thought that everyone would never see each other again, but the fate between people, who can say clearly?

"How are you doing in the United States?" Erin put away her umbrella and got under the parachute.

"It's okay." Lu Fei replied lightly.

The tone is understated, but the heart is beating violently.

There was no shortage of women around him, but only Erin could make him feel his heartbeat, and instead of diluting with the passage of time, this feeling became more and more obvious, and as for the reason, even he himself could not say why.

"You know what? You are now a very famous overseas star in China. Erin said with a smile.

Lu Fei smiled bitterly: "It's a pity that during the trip to Paris, I returned with a crushing defeat in the first battle." ”

Erin's heart moved, and she found one more thing, Lu Fei was more mature than before, and in his behavior and speech, his heart was no longer overflowing, and he was more calm and calm.

"Seon lost his horse, how can he know the blessing and the curse? Falling into the lower bracket might be a good thing. Erin said.

"Oh?"

Erin smiled: "Today, more than 40 teams were brushed down in the first round, but none of the seeded teams were in the lower bracket. ”

Lu Fei's heart moved, he didn't expect Erin to pay so much attention to the competition.

According to the rules of the ESC, the first draw is relegated to the group, and the losing side falls into the lower bracket, of course, if you lose another game in the lower bracket, then you are ready to roll up and go back to your hometown. In other words, for a team to gain a foothold in the lower bracket, it cannot lose a single game, and must finish first in the lower bracket with an all-win record to face the top of the upper bracket.

The lower the bracket, the more likely it is that the seeded teams will meet each other, and the more difficult the game will be, and in the end, there will only be one team left in the upper bracket to face the first place in the lower bracket and compete for the final championship and runner-up.

Generally speaking, there are many teams in the lower bracket, and everyone is fighting to the death for that one qualifying spot, and theoretically the lower bracket matches are more fierce and cruel, more white-hot, but in fact there are many luck factors.

For example, if MDK wins the 4K game, then the next game will encounter the seeded team eoL, which is more difficult, but now it falls into the lower bracket, if the next 4K and eol game falls down casually, it may not meet MDK, simply put, the team in the lower bracket is easy to borrow the hands of others to get rid of strong opponents.

Because the lower bracket format of the ESC is borrowed from the practice of the CAL League, the results must be equal to compete in the same field, which makes the competition more fair and competitive.

Obviously, Erin is also concerned about MDK's fate, could it be that she came to Paris specifically to watch MDK fight? Or did she come to France specifically to find herself?

Thinking of this, Lu Fei's heart beat even harder, but he didn't ask.

He didn't have to ask.

The two just walked side by side on the night rain streets of Paris.

The soft figure is more hazy and warm in the rain, and it would be nice if this scene could stay for a long time.

Downstairs in the hotel, at the door of the French restaurant, a bunch of chattering people have long gathered.

Alice stared at Yu Xiao's group of girls very unceremoniously: "Hey, hey, how many times have I asked you, why don't you always tell the truth?" ”

"I said, I'm Lu Fei's classmate in China, but you don't believe it." Yu Xiao said with a smile.

"Huh, huh? You guys are such a big bunch of girls? Standing here just to wait for Lu Fei, a boy? Alice clasped her hands to her chest in dissatisfaction.

Lin Xue whispered to Xiao: "Sister Xiaoxiao, isn't this girl Lu Fei's girlfriend in the United States?" ”

Yu Xiao smiled and said, "Of course not, I inquired, she is Lu Fei's translator." ”

Lin Xue breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay." ”

Alice heard this at once.

"You, you really have bad intentions......" Alice's complaint was not finished, and the monkey next to her shouted, "Ah, it's back, it's back, Lu is back, wow, who is that girl in blue, it's like a fairy......"

"Idiot, that's not called Appearance Immortal, it's called Appearance Immortal, you stupid monkey Chinese is really too smelly." Alice's voice was still here, but the man slipped up quickly.

"Lu, where have you been, causing us all to look for you everywhere." Alice reached out and grabbed Lu Fei's shoulder, staring at Erin very unceremoniously, "Who is she?" Why are you so close? ”

Erin was slightly surprised, she didn't expect this cute American girl to have such a close relationship with Lu Fei, but she quickly smiled: "Hello." ”

"Erin, this is my friend Alice in America." Lu Fei introduced, "Alice, this is my classmate Erin in China. ”

Alice looked sideways and vertically, and no matter how she looked at it, she couldn't help but think that Erin was a huge enemy.

Her eyes were more hostile than when she first met Huo Xixian, because Huo Xixian was relatively an old woman, but compared with Erin, Alice soon found that she had no appearance advantage in front of Erin.

She Alice can only be regarded as beautiful and cute, full of vitality, but Erin is beautiful and moving, with a fresh and refined temperament, like a hollow valley orchid.

Alice hadn't had a seizure yet, but the monkey and Leon had come up to her:

"Hi, hello, I'm Lu's good teammate Leon, can I ask you to give me an autograph? If I could, I hope I had that privilege to invite you to dinner. ”

"Fool get out of the way, I can't even speak Chinese, and what kind of dinner do I have." The monkey took Leon away, posed as a very gentleman, and then said to Erin a blunt Chinese that made everyone stunned on the spot, "You, hello, my surname is Monkey, my name is Monkey Zhi, I, am I OK to be your girlfriend?" ”

***

French restaurants have always been romantic and warm and quiet, but as the group of young people rushed in, the restaurant suddenly became a mess.

The players from other countries who were dining looked at this "American team" in surprise, this American team is really large enough, because you can hardly see a few Americans, all of them are Oriental faces, and what is even more amazing is that there are all Peugeot beauties sitting at several small tables.

The group seemed to be very happy, all shouting Chinese they didn't understand.

The monkey and Leon kept getting close to Erin, and Erin answered their questions very enthusiastically, while Alice looked at the monkey with a wicked smile with disdain.

Yin Xinxuan and Luo Danlun are not good at socializing, and they can't understand Chinese, the two simply sit on the side and eat a lot, like Yin Xinxuan, who grew up in South Korea, has no moderation in food at all, just steak and foie gras She ate five portions each, which made Chris look stupid on the side, fortunately, the club has money, he doesn't care about these, if he wants to pay for it himself, then he has to shout the sky.

"Congratulations, in fact, from the first day I met Lei Ming, I knew that he liked you very much." Lu Fei said to Lin Xue.

Lin Xue Yanran said: "Lei Ming saw you in the magazine, and he said that he would take you as an example, work hard to train CS well, and fight side by side with you in the future." ”

Lu Fei smiled: "You must tell him when you go back this time, I miss him very much, I miss him very, very much." ”

"I will." Lin Xue nodded seriously.

"By the way, what about Duan Jiu? Do you have any news of him? Lu Fei asked.

Lin Xue and Yu Xiao glanced at each other, and a hint of gloom passed through their faces.

Lu Fei immediately felt bad, but Lin Xue shook his head and said, "I don't know, no." ”

Lu Fei stared at him suspiciously: "I really don't know? ”

Lin Xue still shook her head.

Yu Xiao diverted the topic and said: "Lu Fei, you have been away for more than half a year, and you have become famous in the United States, have you ever thought about returning to China for development?" ”

Lu Fei was stunned, he really hadn't thought about this question carefully, but this question hit his mind.

In his heart, of course, he hopes to return to the motherland and lead a real Chinese iron army to compete in the world arena, but the current changing situation in China is really worrying, shady, scandalous, violent, black-box methods, and commercial interests...... I don't know when these tumors will be eliminated, and China CS will usher in a new tomorrow, I don't know how many years it will take?

"Yes, sometimes I want to go back too, but ...... Alas. Lu Fei sighed and didn't finish his words, but Yu Xiao understood what he meant.

Chinese CS is a bit of an irony of Chinese football, the more thousands of people want it to get better, the more it gets worse day by day.

But CS is much stronger than football, because its foundation in the Chinese folk is quite strong, China has 300 million players, this number is very amazing, the world's CSER combined is only 800 million people, but China alone accounts for nearly half, it stands to reason that such a superpower, there is no reason not to be rich in famous team superstars.

Yu Xiao said quietly: "Lu Fei, you will come back." ”

Lu Fei smiled and said, "Oh, you look up to me like that? ”

Yu Xiao also smiled: "Whether it can be one thing, but whether it can go back is another thing, not to mention ......" Her eyes glanced at Erin over there, intentionally or unintentionally, "There are still many people waiting for you." ”

Lu Fei's heart "chuckled" and jumped away again.

Yu Xiao looked at Alice, who had been angry, and couldn't help but be secretly worried: Sister Ai, your rival strength this time is not weak, this little girl is not simple.
