The night was dark, the moon hid in the dark clouds, and he refused to see through the light.

On a remote road in Anyang City, fifteen people appeared out of thin air. Some of them were carrying backpacks, some were light and dressed in different clothes, just like a temporary individual tour group.

But without exception, they all stood there and gasped. Some were still stiff and some were slowing down, but the pain in their eyes was still clear.

The truth or falsehood of a thing sometimes depends not on the result, but on the process.

The pain of death is more terrifying than death itself.

Han Buting was the first to straighten his body, with a sinister expression. For a moment, Xu Wang thought the other party was going to beat someone up. But in the end, Han Buting just looked at the five of them deeply, as if he wanted to engrave them in the depths of his memory, draw a red stroke and then hit a banned slash, and then turned silently and disappeared into the vast night.

Xu Wang watched the five pretending to be strong backs go further and further away. Somehow, he felt a little distressed.

The last slight sense of burning and suffocation was also scattered in the cold wind. Wu Sheng’s first thing was to take out his phone. The result was clearly shown above, Beijing time, 03:18.

Before the evil spirit appeared, he had looked at his phone once, and it was already past five o'clock at that time...

On the side of the road, Kuang Jinxin, who had just recovered, stopped a taxi and called Wei Menghan's team over there: "You guys get on first."

Wei Menghan shook his head: "Let's go and have a breeze."

Kuang Jinxin said very seriously: "Stop blowing, even vomiting and burning, let's go back early to rest."

Wei Menghan: “…”

The other party advised him sincerely, but he was too realistic and felt heart-wrenching that aroused the sad past.

"Don't worry about us," Ji Yunlei changed his captain's euphemistic style and said carelessly, "We're having a lot of fun this night, let's have some fun before returning."

"What fun do you want?" Qian Ai interrupted, his curious tone rose subtly, and he had countless mosaics in one second.

Ji Yunlei thought about it casually and said, "You can do hot pot or barbecue."

Qian Ai: "…"

For the first time in his life, Qian Ai was shaken by his food broadcast career.

Because this night, he saw faith on a plain face.

The taxi couldn't get five people, so they took Qian Ai away first, Kuang Jinxin and Qi Shan.

Wei Menghan led the team and said goodbye to Xu Wang and Wu Sheng: "Be mentally prepared, see you tomorrow, we will drag you into the secret passage."

Wu Sheng likes this kind of war book: "I wish you a complete success."

Xu Wang's heart was not on the mission line at all, and he was thinking about Ji Yunlei's fun: "Just just finished vomiting, don't eat too greasy, drink some casserole porridge or something."

Wei Menghan shook his head: "The casserole porridge needs to be from Guangdong and Fujian to be delicious."

Xu Wang: “…goodbye.”

Ten minutes later, Wu Sheng and Xu Wang finally stopped the second taxi.

They sat in the back row together, and no one spoke for two or three minutes after the car started.

Wu Sheng is sorting out the task line.

From beginning to end, I sorted out all the links, clues, npc lines and all the details I experienced tonight. I should focus on the key points and mark the question mark.

After finishing everything, he turned around and found that Xu Wang was still staring out of the car window, trance.

His eyes were serious and his expression was not in a state of vain, and he was clearly thinking about things.

Systematically considering tactics or clearance tasks is never the main item of his captain. Usually, he starts to think seriously and anyone will suffer.

"What are you going to have a bad idea?" Wu Sheng asked, his tone full of disgust, but the corners of his mouth were curled.

Xu Wang turned around and looked at him steadily, as if he had finally concluded: "Qi Shan knows Li Zijin."

"Qi Shin? Li Zijin?" Wu Sheng had no idea. Why did these two people get hooked?

"Didn't you notice that Mr. Qi Shan is watching Li Zijin?"

"..." He really didn't. He kept a close eye on the task line throughout the whole process, wanting to see how NPCs pursue love, and it's better to get some practical methods. As a result, I didn't see a little bit of beautiful love, and it was all negative energy.

"Forget it," Xu Wang found that he had chosen the wrong person to discuss. His military advisor's scientific research direction has never been in such a subtle field as people's hearts. "When I didn't ask."

Wu Sheng looked at Xu Wang's obvious "disgust" on his face, and felt a sense of "I only regret that my professionalism is wrong when I use it."

Xu Wang did not think about Qi Shan and Li Zijin along the way. Unexpectedly, when he returned to the hotel, Qi Shan sat on the first floor waiting for them.

Xu Wang was surprised and had a certain premonition, but he didn't show it on his face: "Why didn't you go back?"

Qi Shanding's hotel is not here. According to the original route, it should be Kuang Jinxin. Qian Ai got off here first and took him another section.

"I want to say sorry to you." Qi Shuang didn't go around in circles.

Wu Sheng frowned, but didn't say anything.

Xu Wang smiled, faintly, with some understanding: "Go up and say."

The three of them went back to the standard room between Xu Wang and Wu Sheng. After entering the room, Wu Sheng sat in the corner, making a clear gesture and not participating in communication.

Although Qi Shan said he was waiting for them, Xu Wang was the captain.

All he has to do is to keep it.

Xu Wang pulled a stool for Qi Shan, handed him a bottle of pure water prepared in the hotel, and then sat down.

After his new teammates didn't go around the corner, Xu Wang went straight: "Want to withdraw from the team?"

Qi Shan held the water, didn't unscrew it, paused for two seconds, and nodded.

Xu Wang asked: "Because plums are close?"

Qi Shan was stunned for a moment and touched his nose a little embarrassedly: "Is that obvious?"

"Well," Xu Wang said the truth, "I've been worried about you rushing over all night."

Qi Shan was so happy that he didn't know how to speak, and he confessed smoothly: "He is my idol."

The word "..." Captain Xu, who has never chased the stars, needs to react for a while.

"I have been a fan of several professional e-sports players," Qi Shan generously shared his star-chasing path, "I climbed from one wall to another, and broke it here..."

"Three years ago, he was only sixteen at that time. He was very fucking and became famous in one battle!"

"His talent is absolutely overwhelming, speed, consciousness, reaction, all top, just being patient, but this can be tempered..."

"Last year and the previous year were his most brilliant time. I chased every game, watched warm-up games, and I also played the call on the spot..."

Qi Shan spoke faster and faster, and the light in his eyes became more and more fanatical, just like a true e-sports fan, Li Zi, who was over-age.

When he was reunited, Xu Wang only saw Qi Shanyang's handsome appearance.

Now, he realized the soul of this classmate.

"That..." Xu Wang wanted to say you should restrain yourself first, we have to continue talking about quitting the team, but the other party calmed down first.

"At the beginning of this year, he retired." Before the enthusiasm in Qi Shan's eyes had subsided, a hint of melancholy had already aroused, intertwined, and the taste was complicated. "Nineteen years old is the golden time for an e-sports player."

Qi Shan smiled bitterly, as if he felt sorry for Li Zijin: "I couldn't figure out the reason at that time. Nothing happened to him. At most, he didn't perform well in the last two games..."

Xu Wang knew that he had found the reason now.

It is precisely because I found it that I am unwilling to accept the replacement of Li Zijin.

He resigned himself, and Wu Sheng's company has never dared to take on new projects in a month. This is the erosion of the "owl" on real life. However, behind this erosion, there is spiritual pressure. Mao Qiping on the endless sea has completely adapted to the intertwined life of the two worlds, but when it comes to reality, he still has a deep feeling of fatigue.

What's more, Li Zijin, who is only nineteen years old.

The brief silence made the atmosphere a little heavy, and Xu Wang pulled back the original topic: "Have you agreed with their team?"

Qi Shan shook his head: "I have to withdraw from the team first to chase the new team, otherwise wouldn't it be a cheating partner?"

Xu Wang teased: "If you step back from us and join them immediately. This is called seamless connection and cheating."

Qi Shan was stunned for two seconds, laughed and admitted: "There is nothing wrong with this."

"You want to stay at this level, right?" Xu Wang unscrewed his water and took a few sips. This season, the water at room temperature is a bit cold.

Qi Shan was surprised at his keenness. He thought that this new captain was just a little more sensible.

"This is the first level that requires the five-man team," Xu Wang held the Aquarius in his hand and looked at him, "If I were you, I would choose to wait here."

Unless Han Buting team moves forward all the way, if they return to this level, they will have to add new players.

"I do want to stay here," Qi Shan confessed his selfishness, "but if you can still trust me, I will finish the love line of tomorrow's other half."

"I believe you will start and end well," Xu Wang said, "but I am afraid that when I reach the next level, there will be no single people or teams that need to be added. We still have to tie them up."

Qi Shan understood what he meant, and in an unexpected surprise, he smiled: "Are you so confident that you can hand in the paper tomorrow?"

Xu Wang glanced at Wu Sheng and nodded seriously: "Our team lacks everything, so there is no lack of confidence."

One wants to stay on June 23, and the other wants to find new teammates as soon as possible to cultivate feelings, hit it off and get together.

Before leaving, Qi Shan took out a sketch from his pocket and gave it to Xu Wang. It seemed that he had completed it in a hurry, so he used A4 paper and a water-based pen. However, in just a few strokes, Xu Wang clearly recognized which one was himself, which one was Wu Sheng, and Kuang Jinxin and Qian Ai.

A team sketch of four people, no flashes.

"I just drew whatever I drew while waiting for you on the first floor, and I borrowed all the paper and pen from the front desk. If I think it's not good-looking, it's a tool problem." Qi flicked the blame jokingly.

Xu Wang took the sketch over and suddenly felt like a breakup gift, with a subtle sense of ritual.
