As night falls, the fireplace is lit and the crackling of the wood burns to brighten the Christmas spirit. Everyone sat around the carpet and watched TV in comfort.

Lot 666， then.

(Followed by No. 666)

A chandelier in pieces.

(Scare away the ghosts from years ago)

Gentlemen?

(Guys?) ）

This is followed by a terrifying sound of the organ, which takes the scene back to Paris in 1870.

This is Qiu Jingli's favorite musical opera Phantom of the Opera, although Qiu Jingli has watched it countless times, whether it is on the scene or on TV, and even the tone and expression of every line can be imitated vividly, but I still never get tired of watching it. The TV shows the best version of the official video on the market, the 25th anniversary live version of the British Theatre Royal, when Qiu Jingli had already booked a ticket, but failed to make the trip because of the injury caused by the car accident of Hogist, which has always been a common regret in the hearts of Hougist and Qiu Jingli.

Qiu Jingli looked at it seriously, and the others were also immersed in Laiming. Callemuro and Ciella. Boggs sang soulfully. Unconsciously, everyone's eyes were a little moist and red. When the Phantom finally lets Raoul and Christine go alone and hides in an affectionate monologue, even Haugist's tear ducts begin to spiral out of control.

Masquerade! Paper faces on parade

You alone can make my song take flight

(You alone can make my song soar)

It's over no

(It's all over)

The music of the night

(Music of the Night)

In the aftermath of Lyming's singing, Zhongqiu Jingli turned off the TV, took out a tissue paper and wiped away the tears on his face. Seeing the crying faces, Hogist said with emotion: "Why is the atmosphere of this big festival so sad? Who is that, Xiao Shao children's shoes, do you understand, just cry along? ”

"Although I am a sports student in China, my academic performance is poor, but my English level is still in the past, and besides, music has no borders, although I can't understand it as deep as my mother tongue, but I can understand the feelings in their singing." Shao Jingzhu retorted.

"Yes, our big girl's emotions are very delicate, Xiaozhu can naturally understand, but you, a big man who doesn't understand anything and what is messing around?" Qiu Jingli launched a counterattack for Shao Jingzhu.

"I don't understand anything?" Haugist's eyes widened, "Can you be so happy if I don't understand anything?" ”

Qiu Jingli pursed her lips, "It's a pity that my surname is Fu, my surname is Qiu!" ”

"......" Haugist shrugged helplessly, spreading his hands helplessly, "What else can I say?" I'd better make a wish to Santa Claus! ”

Hoggist got up and went to the Christmas tree and silently made a wish, and Molise leaned in and asked, "What did you wish for, star?" ”

"If you say your wish, it won't work!" Hogist said mysteriously.

"Needless to say, I can guess your wishes, the gifts are all prepared for you!" Moriz said smugly.

"Are you so connected to me? Still know my wishes? Isn't it so magical, don't end up as embarrassingly as in the kitchen in the morning! Hougist said half-jokingly.

"Are you interesting? What are you talking about? Besides, what happened in the kitchen in the morning? How did I not know? Molise blushed, but still refused to admit it.

At this time, Shao Jingzhu also came over, "I also want to see what unfulfilled wishes the idol has." ”

Hougist's gift, opened and looked, it was a big box, it looked like a shoebox, but it didn't have any brand trademarks and logos, and there were three bills in the ziplock bag attached to the outside of the shoebox. You must have traveled thousands of miles from China to buy me a pair of fake shoes, right? ”

"What is the Putian three-piece suit? How could I possibly buy you shoes! You have a sponsor who can't wear enough shoes, and I still need to buy you shoes? And how could sneakers be your wish! Moriz shook her head, as if she remembered something again, "By the way, two days ago, Li Ning Company sent you a new sneaker for a pickup, saying that it was a Christmas war sneaker creative shortlisted work collected for you in China. I put them in the basement, 20 pairs of shoes! ”

"Why haven't I heard Li Ning mention it? But it's a great idea! All the shortlisted works were sent to me to choose by myself, and it completely eliminated the shady, which is worth a thumbs up! I thought they forgot I was going to fight the Christmas war! "Hogist has been wondering why Li Ning Company doesn't plan to give him sneakers in Christmas colors for the past two days, and today I heard Molize mention it.

"Oh, Bijeff told me about this last week, let me not tell you yet, I said it was a surprise for you, but I forgot about it because I had a bad memory of pregnancy, and Grace didn't say I didn't remember it yet!" Qiu Jingli patted her head.

"You are a powerful husband! I'll have to go down and pick it later, otherwise how can I be worthy of these loyal fans who have worked so hard to design sneakers for me? Hoggist picked up the shoebox again and asked curiously: "Speaking of which, this box is quite heavy, and ten pairs of shoes are probably not so heavy, so what is this?" ”

Morize smiled proudly: "This can indeed be called a three-piece suit, but it's not what you said about the Putian three-piece suit, as for what it is, you open it first and take a look, if it doesn't match your wish, I'll leave it at your disposal tonight!" ”

"It's impossible for me to fulfill my wish in time, but even if you let me do it, I can't do anything to you!" Hogist replied awkwardly.

"Don't be too confident, Sao Nian!" The confidence on Moriz's face did not waver in the slightest, "Since you said that you can't achieve it in time, then you didn't run!" ”

Hougist opened the box, which was covered with confetti that played a cushioning and fixing role, and pushed aside the confetti that floated on the upper layer, and the three-piece set in the box shone brightly under the light, "This, this, this...... O'Brien Cup? The Russell Cup? And championship rings? Where did you get that? ”

"Let's tell me if this is the wish you just made!" Moritz gave a look that I expected.

Hogist nodded, "That's right, I just made a wish to win the championship this season, but I don't dare to hope for this FMVP, I hope Kobe Bryant can get this FMVP perfect curtain call." ”

"I made it for you, how about it, do you like it?" Molise lifted the O'Brien Cup and solemnly presented it to Howgist, "Congratulations to the Lakers for winning the 2015-2016 championship!" ”

Hougist took the trophy, Qiu Jingli and Shao Jingzhu applauded together, and then Molise picked up the Russell Cup again, "Congratulations Hoggist. Hurley...... With Kobe. Bryant was named the 2015-2016 Finals Most Valuable Player! ”

Hoggist also smiled and took the trophy with his other hand and held it high, "Thank you, Kobe Bryant is a great contributor to winning this championship, I just did some small work, and it is my honor to share this honor with him!" ”

"Okay, now it's the 2016-2017 Lakers home opener, and we're going to raise the Lakers' 17th championship flag and present the team with a championship ring!" After speaking, Moriz glanced at Shao Jingzhu, who was also playful, and unfolded a small blanket printed with the Lakers logo on the sofa to show that the championship flag was raised. Morez then awarded that knockoff championship ring to Hoogist.

Hoggist put on the ring, picked up the trophy again, and cheered loudly: "Glory to the Lakers!" ”

Qiu Jingli pressed the shutter of her mobile phone and sneered: "You are so stupid like this!" ”

Hoggist didn't mind, "This shows my desire for the championship, send me this photo, I'm going to tweet!" ”

Qiu Jingli sent the photo to Hogist, with the caption: "The best Christmas gifts, I will exchange these for the real thing next summer!" Then he posted it on all social platforms, but after posting it, Haugist said to himself with some worry: "Doesn't it seem too arrogant for me to say this?" ”

"Seriously, looking at the current record rankings and data rankings, you may be the most qualified person in the league to say this, anyway, you are already the number one enemy in the league, and it is useless to keep a low profile, it is better to show your desire for a championship nakedly......"

Hoggist continued: "Show my confidence in the inevitability of the championship, let every opponent in the next use the power to deal with the championship, let us play the regular season like playing away, the playoffs like a crematorium, and the finals directly into the Shura field?" ”

"That's not it, the finals are definitely much easier than the semifinals and finals of the Western Conference!" Shao Jingzhu reminded: "If you can beat the Warriors, Thunder, Spurs, and Rockets in the Western Conference, isn't it a piece of cake to win the Eastern Conference?" ”

"Every team in the NBA should not be underestimated, who can reach the Finals without hard power? You are also a player of the Beijing women's basketball team, do you remember what the media said when the Beijing men's basketball team entered the finals for the first time? Many media predicted that the Beijing men's basketball team would be swept away, but what was the result? "Haugist always kept his mind awake.

"Idols deserve to be idols! Make no mistake at any time. Shao Jingzhu praised kindly.

"It's not that I can't make mistakes, it's that I don't dare to make mistakes, the historical process has pushed me here, since we have unconsciously played such a momentum and invincible start, then we can only continue to win, not to mention failing to get the first record in the regular season, even if it is 3:4 in the finals, the last game is unforgivable in the eyes of Lakers fans and will become a laughing stock in the eyes of fans of other teams, do you say I dare to make any mistakes?" Haugist spoke his mind.

"It's too much pressure for you to think like this, isn't it? There are a lot of impetuous fans and winning honey will only be champions, but there are still many rational fans! Shao Jingzhu, who is familiar with the fan base, said with relief.

"Rational fans will not speak out, and some websites will guide those impetuous fans to fight a war of words, only by picking saliva can the traffic be guaranteed, and the traffic can be profitable, in the face of interests, what is reason? So I'm just going to turn the pressure into motivation and put on a perfect season so that those who pick on saliva have nowhere to go, and I'm mad at them! Hoggist said and laughed again, "Capital wants to use me to attract traffic, I just don't let them succeed, basketball is basketball, this is the so-called savage growth, don't forget the original intention!" ”

Shao Jingzhu applauded: "Haha, isn't this a famous saying of tiger pounce!" ”

"That's right, the NBA is too big, I can't control others, I just want to start with me and make basketball pureer! Let the fans be able to enjoy pure basketball more! Hoggist pointed to the pile of gifts, "I've bought your gifts, find them yourself!" I'm going to go to the basement now to pick out the sneakers I'm going to wear tomorrow! ”

Coming to the basement, Hoggist saw a cabinet full of new shoeboxes, twenty pairs of sneakers, each pair of which came with a detailed description of the design inspiration, Hoggist first arranged these sneakers in two rows, took a photo and posted it on social media again, with the text: "This is the Christmas War sneaker design that Li Ning helped me collect, guess which pair I will choose in the end?" ”

Put down the mobile phone Haugist carefully selected, in recent years, the domestic popular mandarin duck wearing, with two contrasting colors of the same sneaker with a pair of wear out of the street, some colors are very gorgeous, and some people with very spicy eyes, these twenty pairs of sneakers are not lacking in the mandarin duck color works, the first sight of the Hougist is a pair of purple gold mandarin duck color sneakers, this is the team's color, the purple one only uses the yellow sole and laces, and the yellow one uses the purple sole and laces, although it is relatively simple, But the results are amazing.

This pair of shoes Haugist is very like, but feel that there is a lack of some Christmas elements, hesitant Hoggist set his sights on another pair of red and green mandarin duck sneakers, although China has a "red with green, dog fart" saying, but after all, red represents Santa Claus, green represents the Christmas tree, which are the two main colors of Christmas. The main colors of the two shoes are one red and one green, but the sole laces and logo are white, the red one has a red-nosed little elk painted on it, and the green one has a small white snowman painted on it, full of Christmas elements.

Both of these pairs are so beautiful, which one should I choose? Hougist was in a tangle. Or I'm going to wear a pair in each half? Suddenly, a flash of inspiration crossed Haugist's mind and a solution came to mind. But by accident, he caught a glimpse of a third pair of sneakers that he wanted to put on his feet.

These shoes are not mandarin duck color, the main color is an elegant powder blue, and the upper is also embellished with many small snowflake patterns, which looks very refreshing. Hoggist picked up the shoes and fell into a tangle again, I usually wear shoes always choose some bells and whistles colors, Christmas to change a pair of such a light color is also a different way, or I just choose another pair, a section for a pair of shoes? Hoggist's brain hole is getting bigger and bigger.

What will I choose for this fourth pair of shoes? Hoggist looked at the rest of the sneakers and began to worry, these three pairs are Hoggist at a glance, but the rest of them are not able to impress Hoggist at first sight, and there is even a pair of pure white shoes, the more Hoggist looks at it, the more he feels wrong, this pure white sneaker can also be shortlisted? How to control it on the ninth day of tomorrow? Is there any mystery in these shoes?

Hougist picked up the pure white sneakers and took a closer look at the details, which were different from other colors, using fabrics, and embroidering white snowflake patterns on the Bose upper, which was difficult to spot without a closer look.

"It's a bit creative!" Haugess nodded and turned his shoe over, "The soles of the shoes must be a bit mysterious, right?" ”

Sure enough, there is another article on the crystal outsole, the anti-slip texture of the sole is not the common herringbone pattern, water ripple or fishbone pattern, but the Xixia text, the two sides are not the same, Haojist carefully distinguished, the texture of the left foot is written Ruixue, and the texture of the right foot is written Fengnian.

"Ruixue Mega Year? It is indeed in line with the Christmas atmosphere, and it is also a perfect combination of East and West. But this Xixia Wen ......" Hogist suspiciously found the shoebox of this pair of pure white sneakers, and took out the author's information inside, the information shows that this work is a manuscript sent by the author by email, the design is very complete, and samples can be made directly by 3D printing. And the author left only one name "Eye", and the staff did not even know whether it was the name of the work or the name of the author, while the rest had no more personal information.

The explanation of the design inspiration of the work does not mention that the sole texture is Xixia, only that the anti-slip pattern of the sole has been redesigned, and the grip is very good. Or do you call this work an eyesight? What does this sight mean, literally similar to an eyewitness? Witnesses? LeBron has itness, will this guy give me a traditional Chinese version of itness? Not to mention, this is much higher than ITNESS......"
