In the noisy train station, Qin Shou was waiting for a text message from his father who seemed to have almost forgotten his son, and he didn't have much interest in the sister he had never met...

He glanced at the address book of his mobile phone, and there were only three people's phone numbers on it, one was his father's, and the other was Senior Lin Mu.

As if he didn't give up, Qin Shou dialed Lin Mu's phone again, and after a short pause, he actually connected...

Qin Shou's calm heart stirred up a little... Is the call finally going through?

The phone rang for about ten seconds, Qin Shou's face was a little disappointed, and he still didn't answer his call.

About twenty seconds later, the phone was connected.

Qin Shou opened his mouth, he should say something...

And the senior Lin Mu on the other end of the phone also remained silent, he also knew that this call would still be answered after all, and in the past three years, what he was most worried about was the appearance of the owner of this phone number.

There was silence on both sides, Qin Shou could hear the undulating breathing coming from the other end, Lin Mu didn't speak, and he didn't speak.

"I'm back."

About half a minute later, Qin Shou was the first to break the silence.

"Hmm."

On the other end of the phone, Lin Mu heard a faint answer.

The atmosphere fell silent again, whether it was Qin Shou or Lin Mu, for a while, they didn't know what to say.

Three years ago, they were teachers and friends, but three years later...

However, at this time, a game advertisement appeared on the projection screen in front of the train station, which was a promotional video for [Honor of Kings OL]...

As the protagonist, there is a person wearing the costume of a game character, wearing a white robe, holding a long sword, and it is [Li Bai]!

With a burst of extremely cool special effects scenes, the actor of Li Bai raised his head, and his young and handsome face showed a masculine smile and said: "Over the years, there have been more people who have said that they are going to defeat KING than I remember, until they forget, I haven't forgotten." My name is Sword Immortal, and I'm waiting for you in Glory of Kings OL. ”

Qin Shou looked at this promotional video, and had an indescribable feeling in his heart...

Especially when Senior Lin said the words "My name is Sword Immortal"... Qin Shou's heart is extremely complicated.

"Senior Lin, you look good on camera."

Qin Shou closed his eyes, but his fists were clenched slightly, the Sword Immortal was him... It's the ID that he Qin Shou typed!

But Lin Mu took advantage of himself to be a soldier for three years and told the world that he was a sword immortal...

There was still silence over there, and after a while, he said, "Three million, you act as if nothing happened." ”

Qin Shou didn't expect that he would wait for such a sentence.

"Do you know what you're talking about?" Qin Shou felt angry for the first time...

Even if he already knew that Lin Mu was impersonating his identity before, he just felt that he was in mixed feelings, and even after knowing that he had become the most dazzling e-sports figure in China, he still didn't have emotions like anger...

None of this is important to him, because Lin Mu is one of his few friends, these false names, as long as Lin Mu makes it clear to him, even if it is just an explanation, he gives it all to Lin Mu, so what's the matter?

But he never expected that the first thing Lin Mu said to him was...

Million? When nothing has happened?

At this moment, Qin Shou felt that his whole person was insulted!

In vain, he had always believed in Lin Mu, and until the last second, he still regarded him as the most respected senior, but this sentence completely chilled his heart.

"Five million!" Lin Mu's indifferent voice came from the other end of the phone: "Five million is enough, a number that many people can't get after a lifetime of struggle." ”

"Three years, three years, you're like this." Qin Shou sneered: "Lin Mu, don't you really think that you yourself are a sword immortal, right?" ”

"They believe I am, I am."

Hearing the change in Qin Shou's tone, Lin Mu said indifferently, "As for you saying that you are a sword immortal?" Who believes? ”

"But you're still scared." Qin Shou narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "Your heart is empty, you are afraid that you will wake up one day, everyone in the world knows that you are just an impostor!" ”

"No, who do you think you are? Will anyone believe what you say? Lin Mu's tone suddenly became excited, and Qin Shou's words poked into the deepest part of his heart!

"Really?" Qin Shou smiled, but his body couldn't stop trembling, it was a kind of anger that spread all over his body, and he felt for the first time that the friendship and faith he believed in were no match for the word profit!

"Lin Mu, four years ago, do you remember what the first thing you said to me? You want to be a pro, you want to be that legend! ”

"You said you don't have enough strength and need a companion!"

"Who will accompany you to defeat the winning streak and become the strongest king of the national server?"

"Who accompanied you to win the title of Hundred Star King in the fastest record of the king segment?"

"Who accompanied you to defeat the strongest team in the country!?"

"Who was there when you said you wanted to play professionally and needed a little fame, who stood by your side?"

Qin Shou said word by word: "You said that this is your dream and our dream, and in the end, you will give me a sentence of three million when nothing has happened?" ”

The other end of the phone was silent, and Qin Shou continued: "Even if I knew that you used the identity of a sword immortal on the way back, I didn't blame you for anything, but... But why should you measure everything with money? ”

"You've really disappointed me! Isn't it just an ID? Why can't you just tell me? ”

Qin Shou's last half of the sentence was almost shouted out with all his might, causing passers-by to move away from him one after another, looking at him with a strange look.

"Don't say it, five million, if you need it, come to me at any time." Lin Mu didn't seem to be willing to continue talking to Qin Shou, probably because he was weak or didn't dare to face it.

But he was not surprised by this situation, from the time he chose to impersonate the ID of [Sword Immortal], he had already foreseen the worst outcome, but he had no choice.

From the moment he first made his choice, he was doomed...

He and Qin Shou will become strangers after all.

"Lin Mu, let me ask you one last time, have you ever regretted it?" Qin Shou took a deep breath and forcibly calmed himself down.

There was a brief silence on the other end of the line.

"Nope." In the end, Lin Mu's answer was the shortest two words.

"Good." Qin Shou sneered: "Lin Mu, you have to remember that the Sword Immortal is my Qin Shou's ID, not yours, what I gave you is yours, I don't give it to you, you will never be a Sword Immortal!" ”

"No one will believe you, so be it." Lin Mu hung up the phone directly, standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window on the highest floor of the Pearl Building in Donghai City, holding the mobile phone in his hand, looking at the south with a complicated expression, he knew that his former companion had returned to Kanto.

That place where we used to fight together for our dreams.

It's just that things are not people.

Looking down at everything on the ground expressionlessly, he glanced at his office and stood in the Pearl Building, the most expensive area in the East China Sea, which was the [KING] club he created, which can be called the strongest e-sports giant club in China!

He knew very well that all of this was obtained because he announced that he was a sword immortal to the outside world.

If he had to give up everything he had now, he couldn't do it!

"Boss, the helmet is ready, and there are still four hours left before the open beta starts."

There was a knock on the door, and a girl with a beautiful figure walked in, looking at Lin Mu's back, her eyes were full of reverence.

"Okay, let's call them to a meeting." Lin Mu no longer attached to the scenery outside the window, turned around and picked up his coat, and resolutely left the office.

And in Kanto, after Qin Shou hung up the phone, he lowered his head slightly, he looked at everything around him quite distractedly, feeling that this world suddenly became so strange in an instant.

Is this what betrayal feels like? Qin Shou gritted his teeth, no! You can't just leave it at that!

Why, why, why betray yourself!?

"The brightest esports figure?" Qin Shou muttered, "Refuse to talk to me? Then I will step by step, go to your current height, and then ask you in front of everyone, why! ”

After the anger, Qin Shou had calmed down, he looked at the advertisements playing back and forth on the big screen at the train station, he fumbled in his trouser pocket, and took out a pack of cigarettes.

Flicked the cigarette case, took the cigarette in his mouth, and wanted to find the lighter, but he didn't find it, Qin Shou frowned, did he fall on the train?

"Smack"

The sound of a lighter suddenly sounded, and a dancing flame appeared in front of Qin Shou.

Qin Shou was slightly stunned, then subconsciously leaned over, lit a cigarette, turned his head and was about to say thanks, thinking that it should be a passerby next to him, and he would light a fire for himself when he saw that he couldn't find a lighter.

However, the moment he turned his head, his eyes narrowed slightly, his mouth opened slightly, and the cigarette he had just lit fell to the ground, with a shocked look on his face...

What appeared in front of him was a young girl, with a melon seed face, very delicate facial features, and with the skin that could be broken by blowing, people couldn't help but feel an urge of pity.

The girl's bright eyes narrowed slightly, like two rounds of crescent moons, and her pink red lips were slightly upturned, looking at Qin Shou.

At this moment, for Qin Shou, it was as if the whole world had quieted down, the noisy crowd and the honking cars were all like time standing still at this moment.

The dusty memories in my mind are once again opened...

"Qin Shou, let me be your girlfriend, okay?"

"Oh no, I don't have time!"

"Qin Shou, really, whatever type you like, I will try my best to become the kind you like."

"I'm going to play games, and I really don't have time for a relationship."

"Qin Shou, I've been waiting for you for two years, why do you want to refuse me?"

"Xiao Leng, I'm not suitable for you, I'm going to the army, find a boy who is good to you."

"Qin Shou, you bastard!! I'll be on your household register! You don't want to get rid of me! ”

The thoughts continued, and the pictures in his memory kept appearing, Qin Shou didn't expect that he would meet this girl again at such a time.

In his mobile phone, there are a total of three people's calls, and the last one... It's Su Xiaoleng.

"What? Surprised? ”

The corners of Su Xiaoleng's mouth turned up slightly, there was a little playfulness in his voice, his eyes narrowed like a crescent moon, looking at Qin Shou who was distracted in front of him, revealing an intriguing smile.
