Chapter 32: Late Tears
"Sophie, are you done with your summer homework?" Zhang Jun knocked on Sophie's door with his homework in hand.
Sophie handed the two homework books on the desk to Zhang Jun.
"Really! What is Lao Liang doing? With two weeks to go before school starts, he asked the team to train early! Zhang Jun copied his homework quickly, and his mouth kept talking.
"The coach is also for the team to have a better result this year."
"Humph! You don't have to be half a month in advance, right? The new team members haven't been seen yet! ”
"Stupid! Military training is required a week before the start of school! Where is there a place for us to train? Sophie tapped Zhang Jun's head with a pen.
"Oh! I forgot. Well, you can do such a rare question, what a genius! "After copying Sophie's homework, of course Zhang Jun wanted to praise Sophie.
"Humph!" Seems to be useful.

I didn't see Kaka for a summer vacation, and he was even darker.
Anke asked him enviously: "The sun in Rio de Janeiro is great, isn't it?" ”
"No, the sun in Luoyang is really poisonous!" Kaka laughed.
"Huh?"
"I worked in Luoyang during the summer vacation, delivering water to people. The sun is so sunny! Kaka put his hands on the pergola and looked up at the sun in the sky.
"Today's maximum temperature is 39 degrees." Ren Yu walked over from the side, he was dressed as if he had just returned from Hawaii, with a floral shirt, floral pants and a pair of sunglasses. "I have air conditioning at home, but I want to come here to suffer."
"Thirty-nine degrees? No wonder the feet are like they're in the oven. Yang Pan said with headphones on.
"But in Brazil, kids play barefoot." Kaka said.
"I'm used to it!" Yang Pan waved his hand disapprovingly.
"I said how can football in Brazil be so high! That's how it turned out! Anke touched her chin with a pensive expression. Suddenly, a ball flew towards him. Anke almost instinctively volleyed the incoming ball. When Anke was still lying on the ground inexplicably, he heard a pleasant voice: "Great! ”
"Sophie?"
Sophie clapped his hands and smiled: "It is worthy of being a goalkeeper, and the reaction is really fast!" ”
Anke had a feeling that he had been tricked, but it was a big beauty who played him, and it was inconvenient for him to vent, so he had to keep patting the dust on his body: "Pity my Adi ......"
Ren Yu pouted: "Stalls, thirty-five yuan a piece." Guan Lin wholesale, right? ”
"You ......"
"Alright, let's change our clothes!" Liang Ke's scream forced down the impulse of Anke's real-life PK that had just surged.

Zhang Jun looked at the lockers in the lounge, and to his left was the captain Suri. But now, the cabinet has not changed, but the owner is gone. It's been a long time since I've seen the captain, and last semester he only came to the school occasionally, and I heard that he was at home to revise. It's been more than a month since the college entrance examination, and I don't know how the seniors are doing now.
He patted the cabinet door, and if they had been changing clothes for a long time, they would have heard the captain's loud voice at the door: "What are you doing?" Hurry up for the first grade! Don't keep us waiting! ”
Zhang Junmeng turned around, but he didn't see Su Li's figure. The afternoon sun slanted in through the door, and Zhang Jun couldn't see the captain's face, but he could still feel his presence as a captain. The captain who laughed heartily; the captain who yelled loudly; a captain who will be happy just for a warm-up game; There is also the captain who tried his best in the last battle, and finally collapsed in Wang Bo's arms and cried bitterly. These memories seem to be yesterday, but time has passed in a flash. The afternoon sun was still shining quietly through the door, but the sturdy figure was gone......
※※※
Liang Ke said to the players in front of him: "Everyone knows that since Suri left the team, we have not had a fixed captain. Today, I guess the first thing is to identify a fixed captain. Liang Ke took the captain's armband left by Su Li and raised it.
"Yang Pan!" He shouted.
"Huh?" Yang Pan was stunned for a moment and didn't react.
"Come here!" Liang Ke shouted at Yang Pan.
Yang Pan stepped forward, and Liang Ke put the blue captain's armband on Yang Pan's arm, "From now on, until graduation, you will be the captain of the Shuguang football team." ”
"This ......"
Before Yang Pan could react, applause had already sounded below, it was Zhang Jun. Then there are Anke, Ren Yudi, Xie Wei, Kaka...... All the team members expressed their support for the new captain with applause.
"Zhang Jun is the second captain, and the third captain is Xie Wei. Everyone's okay, right? ”
"Nope!"
※※※
When Zhang Jun knocked on the door of Yang Pan's house, he found that Yang Pan was looking at the captain's armband in his hand.
"Why? Just look at it and eat it as a meal? Zhang Jun teased the new captain.
"I was thinking, this thing shouldn't be on my arm......"
"Say what?"
"I didn't do anything, ...... that game"
"! I didn't do anything! You've been running for 80 minutes! ”
"I ran for 80 minutes, but I still lost the race......"
"Still thinking about that game?"
"Are you willing? If you lose like that, will you be willing? Yang Pan looked up at Zhang Jun and said.
Looking at Yang Pan, Zhang Jun was also silent.

On that noisy court, he sat on the bench and watched his teammates play desperately, but he still lost.
He held his head and gritted his teeth and said:
"I'm not reconciled!"
How long has it been? It's been almost a year, and I thought I had forgotten it, but I didn't expect it to be buried deep in my heart.
When the captain patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's not your responsibility to lose. When he said this, he really believed the captain's words, and believed the words that the captain used to comfort him. Then, every day I eat, drink and have fun, and I want to forget everything that has happened. Why would he believe the captain's words? Why did he desperately want to forget that? Growing up, he was not a person who had the courage to take responsibility, he didn't play football to become a big star, he just liked to play football and sweat with his friends. He just liked it very simply, until he met Sophie, and then swore to Sophie in that teahouse, as if he were playing at home, but he did find a goal to play, and now for Sophie's smile.
But, in the final analysis, he Zhang Jun is still a coward. That's why when he blames himself for losing, he just hears a comforting word from the captain, like a drowning man grabbing a tree branch and desperately believing in the words "it's not your responsibility to lose", to desperately forget that painful afternoon, as if nothing had happened.
But can this really be the case? Can it really be as if nothing happened?
When Yang Pan shot the unusually heavy soccer ball into the far wall one by one, was the ball really just shooting at the wall? Was that loud bang just ringing out?
The captain who fell into Wang Bo's arms and cried bitterly after the game. A man who has tears and doesn't flick will cry like such a mess, is his heart really satisfied just because it ends here? Did he hope that his final battle in high school would be the result?
Why does Sophie keep her back to him after the game? Doesn't he understand yet?
It turns out that he is a complete idiot......
Yang Pan didn't wait for Zhang Jun's answer, but saw Zhang Jun's tears sliding down his cheeks. "Hey! What happened to you? Are you okay? ”
Zhang Jun wiped a handful of tears: "It's nothing, I'm fine." ”
I cried, and I thought I was a strong person. However, maybe it would be better to cry, with tears that have been late for nearly a year......;
