Chapter Ninety-Six: This Winter Is Not Too Cold (End)
"Surprisingly, China Qin and his teammates played the role of 'messenger of happiness' on the streets of London!"
"Captain Gunslinger is Cupid and brings warmth to the people of London on this snowy winter. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"China Qin helped his fans complete the marriage proposal, and the young couple said: This is an incredible day, thanks to Qin, we will send Qin an invitation at the wedding."
"It's really a touching scene, I have to say that all this Qin has done has made this New Year in London more meaningful."
"What Qin and his friends have done is amazing, and of course, as the New Year is approaching, there is also a disgraceful scene on the streets of London, yes, a public figure, running in the streets......"
"Even though it was at night, this behavior attracted countless passers-by, and we would like to say that it was a vulgar scene. It is hoped that the relevant departments will keep an eye on this matter and severely punish such uncivilized behavior. ”
"This is a blasphemy against the gentlemanly demeanor of the British Empire......"
The next day is the New Year, but there are still some dedicated media reports on the interesting things that happened in the city of London around the New Year, as in previous years, most of the newspapers are some congratulatory New Year's speeches, such as a certain celebrity on the TV station to send blessings to the whole country, and for example, a well-known company spent a lot of money to hold a New Year's celebration, and invited many celebrities to increase their influence and liven up the atmosphere.
What is different from previous years is that many newspapers and periodicals reported the interesting story of Qin Shou and his teammates playing the "messenger of happiness" on the street, and also matched a couple who were in love with each other. This makes many people feel warm in their hearts, Shakespeare is British, so British gentlemen and aristocratic ladies like such romantic episodes, and Qin Shou, who incarnates Cupid, the god of love, has naturally received a lot of praise.
Of course, this can only be counted as an interesting thing during the New Year's holiday, and there are many other things that attract the attention of the public, such as the night of New Year's Eve, a man full of red fruits running wild through the streets of London, which caused countless onlookers to watch, and finally ...... There was no end, and even though the guy with a somewhat abnormal head appeared to be a celebrity, he was taken away by the patrolling police.
Waiting for the night of the New Year, Qin Shou spent it with Jennifer, and the two attended a friend's dinner together. Diabi, the "second uncle" was unexpectedly at the bottom of the votes, so although he was very angry, he finally fulfilled his promise and invited all his friends to a big meal.
Qin Shou took Jennifer to have a good meal, and after playing with the big guy for a while, the time had come to ten thirty in the evening.
Then the two walked through the streets of London, like many couples, and finally watched the hour hand walk past twelve o'clock in the square in front of the town hall, and ushered in the new year together.
That is, in the process of waiting for the New Year to come, Qin Shou also met an old acquaintance, Mortenson holding a camera in the square, constantly taking pictures in the distance. Qin Shou greeted him, and then looked into the distance curiously—a middle-aged man with red fruits all over his body, running around under the watchful eyes of countless crowds.
Mortenson laughed happily on the side, waved goodbye to Qin Shou, and followed the Chiguo man, filming all the way.
Qin Shou shook his head helplessly, sighing that Mortenson still had such a hobby. The next day there was a newspaper report that a certain public figure was taken away by the police for his uncivilized behavior in public, and was punished by detention and a fine.
It was just a small episode of waiting, when the entire square crowd chanted "Happy New Year!" When singing and dancing happily with the people around them, Qin Shou and Jennifer also hugged each other tightly and kissed passionately.
"Happy New Year, Qin!"
"Happy New Year, Jennifer!"
………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Happy times always pass very quickly, on January 2, although he still wanted to continue to be by his lover's side, Qin Shou had to rush to the team to report and prepare for the next game.
Like Qin Shou, there are all the professional players who play in the Premier League, this is the tradition and cruelty of the Premier League, because in winter, it is the most intensive time of the league competition, and they have to leave their lovers and families behind and continue to fight on the green field.
Because of Arsene Wenger's decision to give the squad a holiday this time, the entire Arsenal squad had little time to prepare for training after the New Year, and the day after the report, they ushered in the first game of the second half of the league season.
The opponent is relegation side Cardiff City, who are currently in the middle of the league but only have 12 points, currently sitting second from bottom in the league and in the quagmire of relegation.
Arsenal are the halfway champions of the league, with countless stars in the team, and in the past half season, the whole team has been in excellent form, and no matter how the two teams compare, Arsenal is completely crushing the opponent.
But in the first game after the New Year, Arsenal's performance was a big failure, in this game, most of the players were not in shape, and the performance on the field was a muddy state, even Qin Shou, the body did not return to the best game condition, his performance can only be said to be average, including many passing errors.
Relatively speaking, Cardiff City have been much more prepared for this game, with only one day off on New Year's Day and the rest of the time at the training ground, so their rhythm has not been lost. During the game, they dominated the all-round defense, and from time to time they counter-attacked in a very methodical manner, creating a threat to Arsenal's half on several occasions.
The situation presented was that Arsenal took advantage of the home advantage to form a siege situation, but never converted the advantage into goals. Cardiff City, on the other hand, are the underdogs, but their quick counter-attacks are more threatening. The two teams fought in the game.
In the end, the result of this game was 0:0, both teams had chances, but no one was able to take advantage of them, and they could only exchange blanks.
Cardiff City are satisfied with a point at the Emirates Stadium. After all, on their road to relegation, this point is not in the plan, it can be regarded as a surprise.
And Arsenal didn't show much frustration, only they knew their own situation, and there was nothing to be satisfied with not losing when most of the players in the team were out of shape.
Arsene Wenger also accepted the result, which he had expected when he made the decision to give the team a holiday, which would give the players more time to rest, even if it was a defeat or two. It's better to not lose than to lose, at least a point.
After the end of this game, there was also good news in another field, that is, in the first half of the league and their biting Chelsea unexpectedly suffered Waterloo in this game, they played the same bad performance in the away game with Southampton, and they were pressed and beaten by the weak "Saints" throughout the game, and finally swallowed all the eggs, scored no goals, and lost the game 0:3.
In this way, Arsenal's lead has changed from one point to two points, the gap is not large, but they still retain their top spot in the league table.
Five days later, Arsenal travelled to Birmingham City to take on Aston Villa at Villa Park.
Aston Villa is an old powerhouse in English football, and has won many championships in various competitions in England in history, although after more than 100 years of ups and downs, their results have also fluctuated, but so far, their results in the league are not bad, although the league championship is monopolized by several giants of the Premier League, but they can still rank in the upper reaches of the league, and from time to time can create some obstacles for the team to win the championship, and even they can often be ranked high, go to the European arena to play soy sauce.
And one of the things that makes Villa fans proudest is that they still hold a record so far, which is that they have never been relegated from the top flight. This is a remarkable result, and in the current Premier League, they and Everton are the only ones who can maintain it. Although teams such as Arsenal, Manchester United, Tottenham and Chelsea have never been relegated from the Premier League, Aston Villa has never fallen out of the top league, which makes their fans feel more honored.
However, Villa's achievements this season have been like a bear market in the stock market, and their performance in the past half season has been nothing short of miserable, with only 17 points in the league at the moment, not much better than Cardiff City, and 17th out of 20 Premier League teams, although not yet in the relegation zone, but only one step away.
Villa fans are worried about the team's situation this season, and even have a vague feeling that the record they are proud of never being relegated could come to an end this season, but they still have great hopes that the team's performance will pick up in the new year.
The reality is cruel, in the first game after the New Year, Villa was beaten 4:1 away by the black cat Sunderland, and lost to the ground.
Back at home, Villa fans were expecting a resurgence of their team, but the result was still a big disappointment.
After four days of training, the Arsenal players' form gradually improved, and in this game, their performance gradually returned to the best level, without scoring in the first half, Qin Shou and Sanchez scored a goal each in the second half, and finally beat the home team with a score of 2:0.
The disappointment and pain of the Villa fans, Arsenal can't feel it, every team has its own things to chase, they can only sympathize with the opponent's situation, but they can't let them stop.
With a win, Arsenal reached 52 points in the league and continued to hold the league table top. Behind them, Chelsea continued their sluggish run after the New Year, and in this round of games, Chelsea, who were still playing away, were held to a 1-1 draw by home team Hull City, and the gap between the two teams was further widened.
The Devil's schedule has come to an end, but Arsenal's performance this winter has made their supporters feel unusually warm, and the Arsenal team that has faced tough battles and difficult situations in previous years has shown amazing tenacity, and all Gunners fans are full of confidence and hope that their team will continue to soar and go further and further.
