Time flies, and a night passes in the blink of an eye.

Early the next morning.

In the field of the National Pastry Chef Competition, the contestants are waiting for the draw to be held soon.

Among them, the winners stand together, and the losers stand together. The draw was not made at the same time, as the two sides played different games.

It was almost time for the draw, but to surprise there were only three players in the lower bracket, and one contestant did not come.

Wang Hua, the person in charge, asked: "What's going on?" And what about one more person? ”

A staff member replied, "We don't know, we can't get through the phone, we can't get in touch at all." ”

Wang Hua's expression was solemn, he didn't expect this to happen.

There is one less person in the game, and the key is that this person cannot be contacted!

In fact, Wang Hua doesn't feel anything about giving up the game. Whether to play or not is your own right, and you have the right to choose to forfeit the race.

But the problem is, even if you choose to abandon the race, you have to notify the organizers, right?

What's the matter with such a silent sound and still not being able to get in touch?

What Wang Hua is afraid of is not that some players will abstain, but that he is worried that something will happen!

Although the contestants are not young, it stands to reason that the probability of an accident is very low, but what if?

Accidents are unpredictable, and if they can be predicted, they are not called accidents.

"Keep calling me! Gotta get in touch with me! Wang Hua said.

"Yes!" The staff responded, and then asked, "But if he doesn't come, what will happen to the game?" ”

Wang Hua said: "Before the time comes, it will be regarded as taking the initiative to give up the game. When the time comes, the draw for the lower bracket will be canceled and a ranking match will be played in groups of three. ”

"Okay, I got it." The staff responded.

This is also a way to do it, one less, there are only three people left in the loser's group, is it possible to have one more round of matches?

So the three of them can only make up a group.

…………

In the audience, the spectators arrived one after another, and they sat in their seats, waiting for the game to begin.

Usually, Wang Zhaohua, Qin Zhuangcai and Zhong Tianhou came early.

When they watch the game, they will find the best angle of view, and they will avoid being robbed of their good positions earlier.

But today, the game is about to start, and the three have not yet entered.

Outside, Wang Zhaohua looked anxious.

Seeing Qin Zhuang walking away in a hurry, Wang Zhaohua walked up in three steps and two steps, and asked, "How is it?" Did you find someone? ”

Qin Zhuangcai shook his head solemnly and said, "No, what about you?" Any news? ”

"I don't have any news either." Wang Zhaohua said.

Qin Zhuangcai said in a deep voice: "I can only wait for Tianhou to come back and see if he has any news." ”

"That's all there is to it." Wang Zhaohua said.

Xun Yun did not come to the game.

Early this morning, the three of them got up very early and packed up to go to breakfast together.

They are brothers and sisters, and it is rare to see each other, no matter what their thoughts are, they all want to get together more.

It's just that Senior Brother and Xun Yun are going to participate in the competition, and the time for everyone to get together is very short.

After eating in the morning, it is a short time to get together, and usually the five of them will get together to eat.

But this morning, Xun Yun never came.

They waited for a while, but they didn't see Xun Yun come out.

At first, they thought that Xun Yun hadn't gotten up yet, or had already gone to the arena.

But when the four of them came to the arena, they didn't see Xun Yun's figure, and they called him, showing that the phone had been turned off.

At this point, the four realized that something was wrong.

Since Du Dawei still had to participate in the competition, he couldn't walk around, so the task of finding Xun Yun fell to the three of them.

After the three of them came out, they searched separately.

This kind of efficiency is faster, and they hope to find Xun Yun soon, after all, the game is about to start.

Soon, Zhong Tianhou hurried over.

Wang Zhaohua hurriedly asked, "Senior Brother Zhong, how is it?" ”

Zhong Tianhou said with an ugly face: "I went back to the hotel and asked the hotel staff to open the door, but there was no one inside, and the luggage was gone." ”

The two looked at each other, and the luggage was gone?

This means that Xun Yun may have left.

But why?

"What should I do?" Qin Zhuang asked.

"How do I know, now that he's leaving quietly, how do I know what to do?" Zhong Tianhou said.

Wang Zhaohua rubbed his eyebrows, looking at the situation, Xun Yun should not be an accident, he should have left by himself.

Otherwise, the luggage should still be there.

But he left too suddenly, and left without a sound, and he didn't participate in the game.

"Forget it, since Senior Brother Xun has decided to leave, it's good that we respect his choice." Wang Zhaohua said.

"And this side of the game?" Qin Zhuang asked.

Wang Zhaohua said: "Let's give up the game, since Senior Brother Xun left, it means that he gave up the game himself." We went to talk to the organizers, and said that Senior Brother Xun was not feeling well and gave up the game. ”

Hearing this, the two were silent for a while, and then nodded.

That's all there is to it.

Xun Yun left suddenly, this behavior is not good.

It wasn't a big deal to give up, but he left too suddenly.

If you don't make an excuse, I'm afraid it's hard to explain it on the organizer's side.

Besides, Xun Yun is also their fellow brother, and they still have to help with these things.

"Let's go, let's enter, look at the time, the draw will start soon." Wang Zhaohua said.

The two of them each responded and went in with Wang Zhaohua.

…………

"What? Not feeling well enough to come to the race? Wang Hua frowned and said.

Wang Zhaohua said: "Yes, he originally tried to come, but it turned out to be reluctant, so I asked him to give up today's game." I'm really sorry! ”

Wang Hua waved his hand and said: "No need to apologize, whether to participate in the competition or not is the player's own business." By the way, why don't you take him to the hospital and see what the problem is. ”

Wang Zhaohua hurriedly said: "It's okay, he may be too tired during this time, just rest for a while." ”

Hearing this, Wang Hua pondered for a while and said, "That's okay, you let him rest well, if you need anything, remember to tell me in time." ”

"Okay, okay." Wang Zhaohua hurriedly responded.

Then he took his leave and left.

Looking at the back of Wang Zhaohua leaving, Wang Hua was thoughtful.

Sick?

He didn't believe it at all, what Wang Zhaohua said just now was full of loopholes.

Even if you're sick, it's impossible to get through on the phone, right? And it's so bad that you can't even participate in the competition, but you don't go to the hospital?

But Wang Hua didn't care, he didn't care whether he was really sick or fake or fake.

All he needed was a statement, a step.

As for whether the matter is true or not, it is not so important.

Soon Wang Hua recruited people and asked them to go down to arrange.

…………

It's time for the draw.

But Xun Yun still didn't come, and a trace of worry flashed in Du Dawei's eyes.

But he was in the game, and he couldn't leave.

Gao Dian's eyes were a little puzzled, there was one less person in the loser group, and Xun Yun did not come.

At this time, the horn in the arena sounded.

"Hello everyone, due to the ill health of the contestant Xun Yun, he was unable to participate in the qualifying competition, so the qualifying draw was cancelled, and the three players competed in a group."

As soon as this notice came out, everyone talked about it.

What they regretted was that Xun Yun was actually ill and couldn't participate in the competition, which was a pity.

Of course, they didn't find it strange.

It seems that something similar happens every year, and there are always people who can't participate in the competition for various reasons.

So everyone has developed a habit of trying not to go out unless it is necessary.

But no matter how you don't go out, there are always people who can't participate in the competition for some reason.

What is more special this time is that Xun Yundu has reached this point, ranking in the top ten!

I couldn't participate in the competition because of physical reasons.

It's a real shame.

If you can't participate in the competition, Xun Yun's ranking will automatically rank ninth. Although the ninth place is already very good in the eyes of many people. But many people think that Xun Yun's level can compete for sixth.

Du Dawei didn't speak, but sighed in his heart.

Sick?

Maybe not, maybe it was sent.

For Xun Yun, or for each junior disciple, Du Dawei knows better.

At that time, he was the first to get started, and he was everyone's eldest brother.

At that time, Master was relatively busy, in addition to participating in various competitions, he also had to participate in various exchange meetings, and he also had to manage the Appreciation Building.

For the apprentices, he didn't have that much time to teach.

Therefore, many basic things for the juniors and disciples were taught by Du Dawei.

According to Xun Yun's character, he will come to the game when he is sick, but since he didn't come, he probably left.

Du Dawei did not say anything, he chose to respect Xun Yun's choice.

Just like back then, he also respected the choice of each junior and disciple.

Gao Dian was a little surprised, Xun Yun was sick.

I was fine yesterday, but why did I suddenly get sick today?

Gao Dian was a little puzzled.

However, since the organizers have announced so, Gao Dian can only choose to believe it.

The lower bracket does not need to be drawn, but the upper bracket is required.

So the draw continues.

…………

On the plane, Xun Yun looked at the clouds outside the window, and his mind was chaotic.

He fainted after seeing the results of the game last night.

He couldn't stand the blow.

It wasn't until the middle of the night that he woke up.

After waking up, Xun Yun didn't sleep, he sat on the edge of the bed all night.

It wasn't until early in the morning that he packed his bags and chose to leave.

Losing to Gao Dian was something he didn't expect, and it was something he couldn't accept.

All along, he has been constantly surpassing others, and now it is his turn to be surpassed.

Xun Yun is very proud because he is very talented.

But in front of Gao Dian, his talent and his pride were all crushed.

He felt that he had no face to face Gao Dian again, and he was not in the mood to continue playing.

In the past, Xun Yun would be very interested in competing for the rankings, even if it was the loser's group, he would strive to do his best.

Now, he's out of the mind.

What competition, in his mind, no longer matters, he doesn't want to participate in the competition.

On the plane, Xun Yun's destination is not home, but far away.

He's not going to go home, he's going to go out for a walk, he's going to improve his cooking.

…………

"You say, Wang Hua believes it?" Zhong Tianhou asked.

"What if you don't believe it? Anyway, the steps have been given, and he can only come down. Qin Zhuang said.

"Yes. But Senior Brother Xun is really, isn't it just that he lost a game, and he won't leave without saying a word. Zhong Tianhou said.

"Senior Brother Xun is estimated to have been hit this time." Qin Zhuangcai said.

"Losing a game and being hit? It's too fragile. Zhong Tianhou said.

"Senior Brother Xun has always been proud, but now his pride has been crushed, and it is normal that he can't accept this blow. Let him be alone, and let's not disturb him. Wang Zhaohua suddenly spoke.

Zhong Tianhou and Qin Zhuang glanced at each other, both sighed, and finally said, "Don't worry, we all understand." ”

Wang Zhaohua answered, didn't say anything more, and looked at the field.

Xun Yun's abandonment of the game was just a small episode for everyone.

If a player gives up the game, he is still in the lower bracket, which naturally does not affect anything.

Everyone was in high spirits, looking at the players in the field, and kept discussing.

Among the contestants, the youngest is Gao Dian, and even the young ones are a little abrupt.

However, everyone did not treat him as a young man, and this young man could not be compared with many pastry chefs of the older generation.

But with their own strength, they have passed all the way to this round.

Looking closely at Gao Dian's opponents, it is actually not simple.

The first round is against the strongest pastry chef below the special level - Shao Zhiqiang!

The second round is the youngest special first-class pastry chef - Wei Qiaoyi!

The third round is against the veteran senior first-class pastry chef - Hu Zheng!

In the fourth round, the seeded players are the ones who hope to win the championship - Xun Yun!

None of the players who competed with Gao Dian were weak, and each one was very powerful when he took it out alone.

Shao Zhiqiang is known as the most powerful below the special level, although there is an exaggeration, but his level is beyond doubt. Even some first-class pastry chefs who have just been promoted may not be able to beat him.

Wei Qiaoyi is the youngest special first-class pastry chef, who has shown extraordinary talent since he was a child, and is the most dazzling pastry genius. Before Gao Dian, she was the first person of the younger generation and the most talented pastry chef.

Hu Zheng's father is pastry master Hu Dekun, he became a special first-class pastry chef in his early years, and his cooking skills are recognized as powerful.

Xun Yun was one of the most dazzling geniuses of their generation, and after entering the special first-class pastry chef, he was even more powerful, surpassing many veteran first-class pastry chefs. Now he is also a powerful pastry chef in the entire special first-class pastry chef.

To be able to win their high canon, the gold content is extremely high.

If before, there were still people who doubted Gao Dian's cooking skills, then now, no one has any doubts.

Even, many people see Gao Dian as a new seeded player with a great hope of winning the championship.

Of course, the remaining five players are all extremely powerful, and each of them has defeated a strong opponent to get to this round.

So, theoretically, all five could win the championship.

Everyone has their own support.

The draw is over......
