24. I ah me(1/2)
If you subscribe to more than 70% of the time, you will have surprises. In order to avoid the dismal situation, there is no rule that you have to have fans and sf people in a row. Instead, you will sit in a messy order and sit casually. If there are staff members interspers, it will not be so embarrassing.
Ying Nian really wanted to sit closer to Yu Linran, but unfortunately there was no chance. Yi Shen stuck to Yu Linran. When he entered the table, he sat directly next to Yu Linran, and his movements were extremely natural. The other side was occupied by Bo Can. The two of them were on the left and the other on the right, and they kept talking to Yu Linran, saying "Brother" without stopping, as if there was no one else in his eyes.
Ying Nian: "..." What can she do? She is just a weak and helpless fan!
The seats opposite Yu Linran were also occupied by another male fan quickly. Ying Nian was not able to squeeze to the stranger, so she could only sit with Xiaoxiao honestly.
During the meal, the boys chatted very well. Ying Nian held up his ears and listened without saying a word, only to regret that he was not a rabbit and did not have enough ears.
As I was eating, a slight noise came from the direction of the cash register.
Many people looked back at their table, and Ying Nian couldn't help but look up.
An old couple seemed to be foreigners. They came in and said something to the waiter, but the waiter lacked foreign language skills and was not right. Both sides were so anxious that they were sweating.
"Do you want to eat? Eat?"
"Two people?"
“Eat hot pot…”
“Our store only has hot pot…”
In the end, several waiters could only call the manager.
The old man has a bad ear and hearing, so it is difficult to communicate. In addition, his language barrier suddenly stumped the staff in the store.
Ying Nian vaguely heard a few words, and as he listened, he stopped the chopsticks in his hand.
Xiaoxiao asked: "Why don't you eat it?"
Ying Nian waved her hand and continued to listen carefully.
After they started talking nonsense again, Ying Nian frowned and thought for a moment.
"I'll go over." She whispered to Xiaoxiao, sitting away from her body.
Ying Nian didn't want to attract attention, but the store had a wide view and the counter was not far from where they sat. Soon, after her voice sounded, almost all the people in the table, including Xiaoxiao, looked at her--
Ying Nian walked to the counter, said "Sorry" to the old couple in Japanese, and asked, "Are you Japanese?"
The old couple finally understood a sentence, nodded repeatedly and asked her: "Are you too?"
Ying Nian said: "No, I am Chinese, but I know a little Japanese."
Although the two old men were a little regretful, a hint of hope still appeared on their faces.
Under the eyes of several clerks at the counter who listened to the fantasy, Ying Nian asked about the incident in a fluent Japanese language.
"Do you want to have a meal?"
"No, no. We want to ask for the way."
"Ask the way? OK, then where do you want to go?"
The old man said: "We read the hotel's recommendation manual and said that there is a tourist street nearby. We originally planned to go there, but after an hour of coming out, we couldn't find the right path."
Ying Nian asked a few questions and learned that they lived in a hotel not far from this hot pot restaurant. They found it dark in the evening and never found the street. They had to come in and ask for directions.
Perhaps because I am old and I am not familiar with many things that I have been born in the new generation. In addition to exchange coins and booking hotels during this trip to China, the old man did not understand anything like translation software.
Yingnian used an electronic map to check the route. The waiter borrowed paper and pen, drew a simple map, and then told them carefully where to go after leaving the store and where to turn at which intersection, and explain everything clearly in detail.
I was afraid that they wouldn't remember it, so I not only repeated it three times, but also wrote the entire walking process in Japanese on paper.
The destination they were going to, Ying Nian wrote it on paper in Chinese and Japanese fonts, and the specific coordinates of "xx Road xx" were written below the place name.
"If you don't know anything, you can give the paper to passers-by." Ying Nian said, then picked up his pen and drew a small arrow under the place name, adding five Chinese characters: "How to get here?"
Ying Nian handed the paper to the old lady, "If you really can't find it, show it to others and they can understand it."
The old couple thanked him repeatedly, and Ying Nian reminded him: "The door is closed at 10 o'clock there. You should pay attention to the time. If communication is inconvenient, you can try the next translation software on your phone. I don't know how to download it. After returning to the hotel, you can ask the hotel staff for help. The hotel has a very good service attitude and they should teach you how to use it."
After writing down her words, the old couple thanked her repeatedly. Ying Nian did not dare to be bowed by the old man, so they hurriedly turned to the side and sent them to the door. After they walked away, Ying Nian returned to their seats.
Everyone on the table looked at her.
Ying Nian paused at the table, pulled her sleeve and pulled her down.
"You can speak Japanese?" Xiaoxiao asked.
Ying Nian said: "You know a little bit. My brother is studying in Japan. I studied with him before he went abroad."
“Wow, how long have you been studying?”
"More than half a year."
"Half a year?!" Xiaoxiao was stunned, "Can you say so fluently in half a year?"
Seeing her writing and drawing on paper, she probably can speak and write. Can she have this level in just half a year?
Others were still looking here, especially feeling Yu Linran's eyes that were not eager but occasionally glanced over, Ying Nian became more and more nervous.
She said modestly: "Maybe my dad hired a strict teacher."
Xiaoxiao looked at Ying Nian with a deep admiration. She was fluent in foreign languages and received scholarships. Ying Nian must be very good at school!
Just as the words stopped here, the SF coach sitting in the middle of the opposite side smiled and said, "You are speaking Japanese well."
With her poor game level, the coach seemed to remember her name alone among the ten fans.
Ying Nian was about to wave his hand and say a few humble words, Xiaoxiao nodded with Youhao and continued: "Ying Nian is not only good at Japanese, but also great at studying! When we watched the competition together for the first time, she contracted all the support fees alone, which was paid with her scholarship! It was very awesome!"
The coach was slightly surprised when he heard this, "Is that so? That's really amazing!"
Xiaoxiao nodded like pounding garlic.
The coach asked: "Have you known each other for a long time?"
"No." Xiaoxiao said, "I only met this spring. The first game we watched together was the game when SF reached the semi-finals from the quarterfinals."
"That game? Oh, I've seen the support of that game. Thank you for your hard work." The coach smiled with praise and thanks, got up and clinked with Xiaoxiao with the wine glass, and clinked with Yingnian's glass filled with Coke. When he arrived at the latter, he added an additional sentence, "Continue to work hard, study is also very important."
Ying Nian nodded to express his understanding.
Then, the dinner table was very lively and talked and laughed. Ying Nian never could speak to Yu Linran, but watching him eat slowly, he gradually felt a little satisfied.
I learned from the video of his interview by chance that this person has been known to him. As a fan who likes him, he has dinner with him at the same table. Although there are many people in the middle and can only look far away, he is still happy enough.
Ying Nian picked up the Coke and took a big sip.
A full sense of happiness is like a bubble, filling the entire atrium with boiling energy.
...
That night, Ying Nian posted a new bedtime selfie in his circle of friends that was open to his friends.
In this city where he lived for a long time, he breathed the same air and had also had close contact.
Nothing is better than this.
In the photo, she captioned:
“Happiness, satisfaction.”
...
After the visit, we welcomed the memory and returned home. We completed all our summer homework in seven days and started a life of "two points and one line". These "two points" do not refer to places, but two things.
Practice game techniques and watch live games with SF.
It is now the regular season period, with at least two games a week, which means you have to go out at least two doors a week and take four rounds back and forth.
Although busy, it is very fulfilling.
"Y Shen" has been quietly staying in Ying Nian's friend list. After she came back from the base, she did not disturb the other party. After all, they had to compete every week and were training after the competition. Ying Nian didn't want to hinder him.
Things go against your wishes. Excellence is like a greeting. When facing some powerless things, you will inevitably seek help.
For example, playing games.
Jiang Jiashu and his friends went to the ancient town for a trip. No matter when they sent him a message, they would not get his reply in two hours. Ying Nian was too lazy to find him. After thinking about it, she had the idea to "Yishen".
The group members in the group can indeed give her an answer. But Ying Nian has to be strong since childhood. No matter what she does, she must not start. Once she starts, she must strive to be the best and do her best.
No matter how well the group members in the group play games, their understanding of the game will definitely not be as good as that of professional players.
After visiting the base, I knew when the sf players were training. Ying Nian specially picked their rest time and sent a message to "Yshen":
"Excuse me."
"Can I ask a question?"
“It’s about the game.”
After sending out three sentences, Ying Nian waited nervously for the other party to reply. She waited and waited, and ten minutes passed in a blink of an eye.
Just when Ying Nian was discouraged and thought she could not receive a reply, she simply replied with a word:
"explain."
I was very happy and quickly told me about my operational problems.
"Yshen" was generous and answered her carefully.
