Chapter 14: A Visit from the Dead
"Oh, hello." Father Gu stretched out his hand and shook Ma Jialiang, "You are..."
"Mr. Gu, I came this time to visit the Mingsi players, and by the way, I would like to discuss the Asian qualifiers for the World Series in three months."
Ma Jialiang said unhurriedly.
Gu's father turned around and looked at Gu Mingsi in the ward, Mingsi was lying quietly at this time, his body was already weak, and his mood was too fluctuating just now, so he seemed to be tired and fell asleep.
"Mr. Ma, let's go downstairs." Father Gu couldn't bear to wake up Mingsi.
"Okay." Ma Jialiang replied with a slight smile.
"Ran Li, you take care of Mingsi, I'll talk to Mr. Ma."
Gu's mother nodded in response, "Okay." ”
"Mingsi is the new MVP of our HERO Athletic National Server Zone, he and his team suffered this accident, we are also deeply saddened, HERO Athletic League has decided to be responsible for the medical expenses of the RAINBOW team, be sure to invite the best doctor to treat them, so please don't worry about these things in the hospital."
Ma Jialiang looked at Gu's father quietly, and added: "This is also part of our ability, the saddest thing is Mingsi and his family, please be optimistic and work hard to recover." ”
Father Gu was silent, and after a while, he said, "Thank you." ”
Ma Jialiang nodded, and continued: "There is another problem at the moment, which may sound cruel to Mingsi players, but it is also a big deal for national e-sports people. ”
"You mean...," Father Gu thought thoughtfully.
"Well, the HERO Athletic World Cup Asian Qualifiers three months later were supposed to be played by the RAINBOW team, but due to an accident, so..."
"You mean, let them give up this opportunity to play for their country?" Father Gu looked straight at Ma Jialiang.
"Mr. Gu, don't get too excited, you can also see that the first team of RAINBOW has suffered a heavy blow, and the players still have a long recovery period, and it is beneficial for the league to take the initiative to quit the team."
"I understand what you mean, but the qualifiers are the only spiritual sustenance for Mingsi at the moment, and they are also spelled out by the children one by one, I am afraid that he will collapse when he suddenly hears the news."
Gu's father was a little emotional, he naturally understood the idea of the e-sports league, but how did this make Mingsi face it?
Ma Jialiang sighed lightly: "Mr. Gu, for the sake of the e-sports people across the country, Mingsi players, I still have to make a small sacrifice and give up this time..."
Before he could finish speaking, suddenly the door opened, and a young man said angrily: "My brother has sacrificed so much, what else to sacrifice? ”
Ma Jialiang was stunned for a moment, and saw a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy standing in front of the door, his eyebrows were somewhat similar to Gu Mingsi's, "Mr. Gu, what is this?"
"I'm sorry, this is my second son, Mingsi's younger brother, Gu Mingyi." Father Gu glared at Mingyi, "Come here, adults talk about things, children don't intervene." ”
"Dad, I believe that Brother Ming Si and Brother Wu Chen will definitely recover, there are still three months left, and although the first team of RAINBOW is damaged, the second team is still there! How can you say quit and quit? ”
Gu Mingyi is fast-talking and outgoing, which is completely different from the serious Mingsi.
Hearing Gu Mingyi say this, Gu's father also rekindled his hope, he looked at Ma Jialiang and said, "Yes, Mr. Ma, the second team of RAINBOW is still there, you can't say that the players of the second team can't participate, right?" ”
Ma Jialiang also didn't take this issue into account, and frowned at this time: "Having said that, but... The overall strength of the second team, will we lose face in our national server area if we go to the competition? ”
Gu Mingyi said: "I am a member of the second team of RAINBOW, even if our ability is not as good as that of a superstar, but it is not bad, if my brother can recover, it will be even more powerful, plus there is already a joint practice, there will be no problems in tacit understanding." ”
"En....." Ma Jialiang pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll go back and ask the board of directors, and if there is no problem, I will inform you again,"
"Oh, okay." GU'S FATHER DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO ANSWER JUST NOW, BUT IT WAS HIS SECOND SON GU MINGYI WHO WAS QUICK TO THINK AND GET A CHANCE FOR RAINBOW.
"Then we'll get in touch when I'm done asking." Ma Jialiang regained his trademark smile.
"Okay, I'll loosen you." Gu's father wanted to get up, but Ma Jialiang pressed him back to his seat.
"You also rest and rest, and it's hard to take care of Mingsi's players." With that, he nodded at Gu Mingyi and turned to leave.
Father Gu let out a sigh of relief, looked at Gu Mingyi and said, "Boy, you played well today, and you can speak well." ”
Gu Mingyi shook his head, "I just don't want to admit defeat easily, I know my brother thinks so too." ”
"Well, in a few days, we will go back to Beijing, for now your brother's recovery is the priority, as for whether he can participate, it depends on the recovery status."
In summer, Shanghai is rainy, the air is humid, and the sun is hidden in the clouds, which seems to be too tired to be seen throughout the month.
Gu Mingsi was lying on the hospital bed, staring out the window blankly, and the remaining rain on the leaves fell drop by drop, making a soft sound.
The situation of the HERO Athletic League, he already knows, although he is unwilling, but the current situation of the RAINBOW team and himself is not good, the first team has suffered heavy losses, and he has been bedridden for almost a month, how can such a team go to participate in the Asian qualifiers.
"The championship that has been fought hard for, but because of a car accident, the future is ruined, where does the world come from."
Gu Mingsi was not a sentimental person, but the current situation was special, and he was a little smoothed out.
"What are you thinking? My handsome old man? ”
When he was in a daze, a voice sounded from behind, Gu Mingsi didn't look back, and said, "Mingyi, you're here." ”
"Oh, you're looking at me, I've brought your favorite barbecued pork rice." Gu Mingyi is still so good.
"Oh? Thank you so much, I found that I was lying in bed this month and was the most related to each other. Okay.." Gu Mingsi turned around, but found that in addition to his younger brother Mingyi, there was another person behind him.
"Zhou... Zhou Qing? Gu Mingsi was stunned for a moment, "You came back from abroad?" ”
"Well, summer vacation..."
The one named Zhou Qing was a young woman, close to Mingsi's age. At this moment, she stared blankly at Mingsi on the hospital bed, and tears were dripping from her eyes.
"Hey, sister, didn't we say we should be happy?" Gu Mingyi also panicked.
"Who made you like this..."Zhou Qing said with a crying voice, Gu Mingsi on the hospital bed was a very handsome young man, but he was in bed for many days, and he was still tortured and lost his face, and his cheeks were deeply sunken,
His eyes were blank, and he really lost a lot of weight.
Ming Si stretched out his right hand, shook it with Zhou Qing, and said with a smile: "Don't cry, aren't I okay?" ”
Gu Mingyi's expression was embarrassed, although both families agreed to have a relationship with his brother Mingsi and Zhou Qing, it was the first time that he showed affection in front of his eyes, and his brother, who was usually very strict with himself, seemed to be a different person when he saw Zhou Qing.
"Ahem, I said two, calm down first." Gu Mingyi tried his best to lower his voice and looked more mature. "Brother, I have something important to tell you today."
Gu Mingsi was stunned, "Big deal? Isn't it a big deal that your sister is here? ”
"Well, of course it's okay, but you'll be happier when you hear it." Gu Mingyi said with a smile.
Zhou Qing wiped her tears and said, "Mingyi, don't sell it, tell your brother quickly." ”
"Two news, one bad news, one good news, brother, which one do you want to hear first." Gu Mingyi squeezed his eyebrows, looking very mysterious.
"Huh? Tell me the bad news first. Gu Mingsi didn't understand what kind of medicine was sold in his brother's gourd.
"The bad news is... Brother, your single VIP ward experience card expires, starting tomorrow, Sister Qing will take care of you instead of me, she is not as understanding and obedient as me, oops. Before Gu Mingyi finished speaking, he had already been kicked by Zhou Qing.
Gu Mingsi held back a smile and asked, "What about the good news?" ”
"The good news is that the HERO Athletic League has agreed to let the RAINBOW 2nd team participate in the Asian Qualifiers, of course, if you and Wu Chenge are both recovered and lead the team."
"Really.. Really?" Gu Mingsi was already dead set on the qualifiers, how could he not be shocked when he heard the news at this moment?
"It's true." Zhou Qing said, "I flew here from Beijing to tell you the news in person, and Dad Gu returned to Beijing earlier because of this incident." ”
Gu Mingyi felt indescribable emotion in his heart, the World Championship is a dream in his heart, and it is also the motivation for him to recover quickly, and the confidence he once lost is back at this moment.
Zhou Qing continued: "Of course, considering the current situation of the RAINBOW team, there are only two months left. TWO MONTHS LATER, THAT IS, BEFORE THE LIST OF PARTICIPANTS IS REPORTED, THE NATIONAL SERVER LEAGUE WILL SELECT THE LEAGUE ELITE TO PLAY ANOTHER MATCH WITH THE RAINBOW TEAM, AND ONLY IF THEY WIN CAN THEY FINALLY QUALIFY, OTHERWISE THE SECOND PLACE MAGIC TEAM IN THE FINAL WILL STILL PARTICIPATE. ”
"Oh..."Gu Mingsi closed his eyes and thought in his heart.
"Mingyi, how did my mother contact the hospital in Beijing before?" He asked.
"It's all in order, but you've been in a dull mood for the past two days, so you haven't mentioned it." Gu Mingyi said,
"Clean up, the day after tomorrow, go back to Beijing."
"Ah, what are you doing in such a hurry?"
Gu Mingsi smiled slightly and said, "Go back to training." ”
