After walking off the stage on crutches, Li Shuning smiled at Duan Zi and said, "Congratulations, you won the first place." It's a pity that I couldn't surpass you in the end. ”

Duan Zilian smiled: "Actually, you have done a good job, in terms of emotional pouring, you are similar to me, but there is a little gap in skills, as long as you practice your skills, you can catch up with me." ”

"It's easy to say, I'm afraid I won't have that time." Li Shuning's smile did not decrease, but this smile matched her pale face, which looked a little helpless and lonely.

"Huh? What do you mean? Duan Zilian was a little puzzled.

"Nothing." Li Shuning shook her head, didn't say anything, leaned on crutches, and turned her head away.

Seeing that Li Shuning was reluctant to say more, Duan Zilian could only suppress the doubts in his heart and did not ask questions.

The competition was completely over, and the people in the theater immediately dispersed, and Duan Zilian saw the principal waiting there at the door of the theater.

Duan Zilian won the championship in the second competition at the municipal level, and the principal was very happy, so he immediately took Duan Zilian to a big dinner and was treated by him.

However, Duan Zilian refused, because he wanted to go home now, and he didn't even want to pay attention to the interviews of those reporters.

In this regard, the principal did not force it, after all, there are only two people, and the age gap is quite large, there is a generation gap, even if you go to a big meal, there is no such atmosphere.

Therefore, the principal decided to call a few friends out to celebrate after sending Duan Zilian back.

After packing up his things, the principal returned the room at the Sega Hotel and drove Duan Zilian home.

On the way, Duan Zilian looked at his mobile phone and found that there was another video in the class group, which showed the whole process of receiving the award on the stage.

This video was posted by Xu Ying, and it is obvious that she also watched the whole afternoon game, and now, she should have gone back.

And under the video, almost all of them are congratulations from classmates.

Since the video was released, Duan Zilian quickly read all the message records of the class group, and then clicked on the chat interface with Xu Ying.

"Duan Zilian: You're still watching the game in the afternoon, I thought you had gone back in the afternoon."

After more than ten seconds, Xu Ying replied to the message.

"Xu Ying: I'm going to tell the others about the final result, so that everyone can celebrate together."

"Duan Zilian: You're like this, I can't keep a low profile. (Sigh helplessly. JPG）』

"Duan Zilian: The game is over, so have you gone back now?"

"Xu Ying: Well, it's already on the way."

Some of them chatted with Xu Ying for a while, Duan Zilian ended the chat, and was about to open the browser to see the information on it, when he saw Cui Kairui send a private message to himself.

"Cui Kairui: Pity, Niu Pi, you can win the first place in the city-level competition!"

"Duan Zilian: If I say that I haven't used all my strength, it's all other people who are too vegetable, do you believe it?"

"Cui Kairui: Believe! You are such a, I believe everything you say!'

"Duan Zi Lian: ......"

"Cui Kairui: Hehe, by the way, pity, you won the first place, I heard that there is a prize of 100,000 yuan?"

Seeing this news, Duan Zi raised his eyebrows.

"Duan Zi Lian: Well, so what? What the hell are you trying to do?'

"Cui Kairui: Well, it's nothing, I just want you to have a big dinner and celebrate.

Anyway, you have a prize of 100,000 yuan, and 10,000 yuan for the preliminary round, which is not a small amount of money, right?"

Duan Zilian thought about it and typed on his phone.

"Duan Zi Lian: Okay, I don't care. The time is set for Wednesday of the following week, three days later.'"

Although on that day, Duan Zilian was going to work at the café, he could ask for leave.

"Cui Kairui: Yay! I love you so much!'

"Duan Zilian: Get out of Dad. (Roll your eyes.) JPG）』

Then, Duan Zilian saw that Cui Kairui posted a message in the class group.

"Cui Kairui: On Wednesday of next week, I want to have a big dinner, whoever wants to come, I will deduct 1!"

So, under this news, the students deducted 1 one after another.

Duan Zilian: "......"

When did I say I was going to invite so many people?

"Forget it." Duan Zi smiled and shook his head.

At more than five o'clock, the principal sent Duan Zilian to a neighborhood not far from home, because Duan Zilian had to go to the nearby vegetable market and supermarket to buy things.

"Goodbye, Headmaster." On the side of the road, Duan Zilian waved his hand and watched the principal drive away.

After the principal drove away, Duan Zilian pulled the backpack behind him and turned into the supermarket behind him.

Half an hour later, Duan Zipian returned home with a large bag of things.

When he opened the door, Duan Zilian saw Luo Lingling sitting alone on the sofa, listening to songs on her mobile phone.

Hearing the opening of the door and footsteps, Luo Lingling turned her head expressionlessly: "Sister, are you back?" ”

"No, it's me, I'm back." Duan Zilian said as she closed the door.

Unexpectedly, the person who came back was actually Duan Zipian, Luo Lingling was a little surprised, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment: "You're back, that piano competition is over?" ”

"Well, it's over this afternoon." Duan Zilian replied, looking at the relatively small, but cleanly cleaned living room, I couldn't help but feel a sense of relief.

Although the feeling of staying in a hotel is still quite good, Duan Zilian feels that it is still the most comfortable at home.

"And how did it turn out?" Luo Lingling asked curiously.

Duan Zilian smiled: "First place." So, I bought a lot of food and came back, planning to make hot pot tonight and celebrate well. ”

"Hmm." Luo Lingling nodded quietly, and just responded.

Shrugging his shoulders, Duan Zilian didn't expect Luo Lingling to react otherwise, and asked, "By the way, what about your sister?" ”

"I went out to buy groceries, I just went out, and it was only three songs, didn't you meet her when you came back?" Luo Lingling replied.

Duan Zilian shook his head: "No." ”

Seeing that the time was not early, Duan Zilian didn't talk much and went to the kitchen to be busy.

In the small kitchen, Duan Zilian had just plugged in the rice cooker to cook rice, and Luo Xinyan came back with some dishes.

As soon as she entered the door, she saw Duan Zilian, and Luo Xinyan showed a little surprise: "You're back, the game is over?" ”

"Well, it's over." Duan Zilian nodded.

"I thought you wouldn't be back tonight." Luo Xinyan was as cold as ice, and it seemed that she didn't want Duan Zilian to come back tonight.

Duan Zilian didn't care about Luo Xinyan's dislike, and stretched out his hand: "Give me all the dishes you bought, I'll cook them together." ”

Luo Xinyan walked over and handed the dish in her hand to Duan Zilian, and saw that Duan Zilian bought it back

How much to eat, he asked, "Buying so much food and coming back, is it a good ranking?" ”

"Well, number one." Duan Zilian replied.

"I heard Lingling say that if you win the first place, you will give us half of the prize money of 100,000 yuan. Don't forget about it. ”

"Don't worry, I won't forget, when the organizer transfers the money to my account, I will transfer it to your card as soon as possible. Oh, it's going to take a long time to make a big meal, I bought some cakes, as well as fruit and some other snacks, you and Ling Ling can eat some to cushion your stomach. ”

"Then again, why are you so pale?"

"I'm not used to living in a hotel, and then I don't have a good rest because I have to play."

……

After working alone for a long time, Duan Zilian prepared all the ingredients, sat at the table with Luo Xinyan and Luo Lingling, and ate steaming hot pot.

At the dinner table, Duan Zilian was eating hot pot while telling Luo Xinyan and Luo Lingling about the game.

After eating, as usual, Duan Zilian packed up the dishes and chopsticks and utensils, went to take a shower, returned to the room, and lay comfortably on the bed.

To be honest, although the environment of the hotel is much more comfortable than at home, Duan Zilian still feels that his small home is more comfortable, and when he returns home, he feels at ease.

Duan Zilian lay on the bed idlely, staring at the ceiling blankly, and unconsciously, a sleepiness came to his heart.

Due to the fact that a lot of blood was sucked away by the bat xenomorph, so that he was anemic, his body was quite weak now, and he felt quite tired when he went to compete outside.

I looked at my phone, it was still early, but Duan Zilian still went to bed directly, anyway, I have to get up early tomorrow morning to go to work, go to bed early, take care of my spirit, and let my body return to normal as soon as possible.

The next morning, without the alarm clock to wake up, Duan Zipian got up by himself.

He went to bed early last night, and now he feels very energetic, but his body is still a little weak because of anemia, and he is a little floating when he walks.

But there is no way to do it, after all, a lot of blood has been sucked away by the bat xenomorph, which is not something that can be replenished by eating a big tonic meal, and it takes time to slowly recuperate.

In the bathroom, Duan Zilian brushed his teeth and washed his face, looked at himself in the mirror, his face was still so white, and he didn't know when he would be able to recuperate.

However, thinking of the scene at that time, although he was sucked anemic by the bat xenobiotic beast, Duan Zilian felt that he was very fortunate that he could survive.

But it is precisely because of this that Duan Zilian is a little puzzled: "It's been several times, every time I was defeated, the people behind the scenes just stopped and didn't come to take my life or what, what is the purpose?" ”

This question made Duan Zilian very confused, but relying on his own conjecture alone, he didn't know the answer at all, you know, he didn't even know who was behind the scenes, how could he guess the other party's purpose and motives?

"Forget it." couldn't figure it out, Duan Zilian didn't want to think about it, held the cold water in both hands, directly hit the cold water on his face, and washed his face with cold water.

Winter has not passed, and today's weather is still quite cold, and in such a cold weather, it is very exciting to wash your face with cold water.

Anyway, the moment his face touched the cold water, Duan Zilian couldn't help but shudder, and his whole body trembled.

"Stimulus." Talking to himself, Duan Zilian wiped the water stains on his face, and then wiped his face with a towel.
