On the almost ten-hour high-speed train from Jingzhou back to City A, all the team members were so tired that they fell asleep on the bullet train, and it was late at night when they returned to City A. The high-speed rail meal was not full, and everyone's stomachs were drumming, so Coach Lu Zhi proposed to go to have supper, to celebrate the team's victory, and by the way, to comfort everyone, the already hungry players hurriedly nodded in agreement, so the group went to the supper stall near the school. As soon as he sat down, Coach Lu Zhi said that he would go back to the school to get some materials and ask the players to order food first, and when he came back after a while, the table was already full of food.
"Hoho, you guys ordered it pretty fast, how about it, you're hungry, eat quickly..."Coach Lu Zhi smiled and beckoned everyone to eat.
"You're welcome, coach, I'll go!" Zhang Fei was already hungry and panicked, and as soon as he heard that he could eat it, he grabbed two skewers of barbecue and stuffed them into his mouth, and everyone couldn't help but laugh when they looked at him gobbling it up.
"Eat slowly, don't rush..."Coach Lu Zhi patted Zhang Fei on the shoulder, glanced around the dinner table, and suddenly found that Guan Yu was gone. Where did Guan Yu go?" The coach asked.
"He's... He..."Zhang Fei tried to respond to the coach's words while eating desperately, but as soon as he spoke, he choked up, and kept hiccups, which caused his teammates to laugh.
"Guan Yu left the table not long after you left, packed a box of fried rice and said that he would go back to school for training, and we couldn't keep him." Liu Bei told Coach Lu Zhi.
"That's right, he's really obsessed with basketball, but without hard work and dedication day and night, he can't become the team's current ace core." Coach Lu Zhi praised it from the bottom of his heart.
"He... He... Isn't it... In order to... Fling... Cool people, boring people. Tomorrow... I... I'll be better than him... Try harder... Training... I... Yes... than him... Stronger... Hiccup..."Zhang Fei responded to Coach Lu Zhi intermittently while hiccups, and his teammates burst out laughing.
"Okay, I'll give you a glass first, thank you for your hard work, win glory for our school, thank you..."
"Awesome! The coach has a lot of alcohol, come on, cheers everyone!" The team members stood up together and drank all the beers.
Everyone kept talking and laughing at the banquet, but only one person was sullen all the time, and he didn't eat much, it was the captain Gongsun Zhan. Coach Lu Zhi saw his situation in his eyes. "Captain, Gongsun Zhan, do you seem to have something on your mind?" Coach Lu Zhi asked with concern.
"Huh? Me..."Gongsun Chan seemed to have some reaction at this time. "I'm fine," he prevaricated in response to the coach's inquiry.
"I know you must have felt that today's performance was not ideal, but it doesn't matter, everyone's performance is good and bad every day. I think you're still playing well, playing against the captain's title, the pressure is definitely not small, and I think in the next game, you can play better than today. After Coach Lu Zhi finished speaking, he raised his glass and thanked Gongsun Zhan, who reluctantly smiled and raised his glass to drink, and then said that he was tired and hurriedly left the table and went home.
"What's the matter with the captain?" There was a lot of talking.
"He may be haunted by his abnormal performance today..."Coach Lu Zhi explained slowly. The captain's burden is even greater than that of other players, and Gongsun Chan has more responsibilities, which is not something that can be borne all at once, and now he is still learning to take on this responsibility, so the pressure on him is unimaginable. ”
"Senior Gongsun Zhan..." Liu Bei watched Gongsun Zhan's figure disappear into the darkness, and his face also showed a worried expression.
"Yes... I'm sorry, everyone..."Just halfway through the supper, Kong Ming suddenly stood up, he was sweating profusely, his face was pale, his hand kept touching his forehead, and his body looked very weak.
"What's the matter, classmate Kong Ming..."Coach Lu Zhi saw Kong Ming's condition and hurriedly asked about his situation.
"I... My body is a little unwell, so, I'm sorry, I want to go home and rest..."Kong Ming's state was indeed very poor, but he still barely smiled on his pale face.
"Come home and rest, everyone, which of you will send Kong Ming back?" Coach Lu Zhi asked the players.
"Wait for me to send you home, Kong Ming..."Liu Bei stood up.
"No, no need, Ah Bei, I can, go back by myself..." Kong Ming wanted to take a step away, but found that he was almost unsteady on his feet, and he almost fell down, Liu Bei supported him with one hand.
"Don't be too reluctant, let's go..."Liu Bei couldn't help Kong Ming, said goodbye to the coach and teammates one by one, and then slowly left with Kong Ming.
Coach Lu Zhi watched them leave, and his eyes showed mixed emotions.
"Kong Ming, are you okay, what's wrong with your body?" Liu Bei asked as he walked with Kong Ming.
"Just now... After drinking a glass of beer, I felt sick to my stomach, my heart was beating fast, and my head was very dizzy..."Kong Ming replied slowly in a weak voice as he walked.
"Let's drink less beer, do I need to take you to the hospital for emergency treatment now?" Liu Bei asked with concern.
"No... No, I want to go home and take a break... It'll be fine tomorrow morning... Don't worry, Ah Bei..."Kong Ming smiled reluctantly at Liu Bei.
"Okay, go back and have a good rest, you are very good in today's competition, and it is indeed very hard, come for a morning run with me later, it will be of great help to your physical fitness..."
"Hmm..." Kong Ming nodded in agreement with Liu Bei.
Unconsciously, Kong Ming and the others had already walked to the door of Kong Ming's house.
"It's here, go back and rest..."Liu Bei smiled goodbye to Kong Ming.
"Okay, you can go home quickly, you have a hard time in today's game, see you at the school stadium on Monday morning..."
"Okay, I'll see you on Monday morning..."Liu Bei waved goodbye to Kong Ming after finishing speaking.
Kong Ming smiled and looked at Liu Bei's figure, a cold wind blew, Kong Ming felt his body tremble unconsciously, he couldn't help but take a few steps back and almost fell, but fortunately a hand happened to be on the railing outside the door. Kong Ming felt a suffocation in his chest, as if he was about to be torn apart, and his internal organs were like turning over the river and the sea, suddenly he felt a cramp in his stomach, and everything he had just eaten and drank poured up his throat, the scene in front of him was distorted, and the vision in front of him gradually became blurry...
