Chapter 238 Chapter 230 Eight: Breaking the Court
Due to the limited capacity of the auditorium of the residence hall, the number of people on today's open day is limited. When the time for afternoon tea is approaching, the volunteer workers stationed at the entrance of the residence hall will be arranged with long tables The counter was put away, and finally the big iron door of the courtyard was closed.

There are quite a lot of visitors enjoying meals in the front yard of the residential building. The area of ​​more than 1000 square feet is almost filled by visitors, but there are still some visitors who do not choose to blindly visit the front yard, but directly walk in Inside the residential building, just take a look at the living environment of these children who have lost the warmth of their families since childhood.

The entire residential building is like a small primary school building, covering a total area of ​​more than 5000 feet. In addition to the independent auditorium built on the side, there is also a four-story multi-purpose building. The ground floor of the building is used by the staff of the residential building. The office space, the next in order, is the teaching area specially set up for the residents under the age of eight, but the residents over the age of eight are usually arranged to go to public schools outside, so this floor is often seen Just a bunch of younger kids.

Finally, the upper two floors are the canteen of the residence and the dormitory beds of the residents. The number of residents living in the residence has always been maintained at about 150. According to the operation and management capabilities of the residence, if the number If it goes any further, it will be overwhelming. Even so, the director will arrange for the children to be admitted to other welfare institutions in Marseille, and try not to give up a single child.

Although the area of ​​the dormitory is small, there are memories of Kabinet everywhere. Among them, the small playground next to the auditorium is the most memorable one. It was originally a basketball court, but since Kabinet waited for several children in previous years When the basketball court was used as a football field to play, the dean knew that the children only loved football. After a long consideration, he asked someone to transform the basketball court into a five-a-side football field, so that Kabinet could wait for a team The children playing football are more happy. . .

"I was deeply moved when the dean was looking for additional funds to renovate the playground. At that time, I still remember that I took a few friends to knock on the door of the dean's office all day long, just to know what the playground was. It's time to remodel it because I... love football so much!"

Kabinet led the Chinese girl Yan Ming to stand next to this field. Every word was full of memories, and he even expressed his respect to the dean. When he was a child, he did not understand how much thought and energy the dean had spent on remodeling the playground. Spirituality, it wasn't until he went to other countries to find his dream that he realized that the dean must have put his heart and soul into this matter.

This field is still there today, right in front of Kabinet's eyes, but seeing that the rules and lines divided by the white paint on the field are about to lose their color, this makes Kabinet lament once again that his childhood was so early. He is no longer there, he fell down countless times on this court for practice, but now he is the golden boy of Europe and he returns to this old land, but he sees how quiet it is here.

"Hey! The children living here probably don't like playing football very much, right? Otherwise, if the dean sees the white paint falling like this, she will definitely arrange for a painter to repaint the gauge line."

After Kabinet finished speaking, he lowered his head, and Yan Ming could only follow the rhythm of Kabinet's thinking and make the same expression of exclamation. It is probably because this girl doesn't know much about football, so she may not be able to fully understand it. Cabine's kind of hidden injury.

Five seconds later, Kabinet raised his head, and his eyes returned to the court. Seeing this, Yan Ming thought that although the boy in front of him had just met him, his life experience could not be explained in just a few sentences. To be clear, it is rare that he has just made some achievements in his own career. It is a pleasure to return to the old place today, but an inconspicuous broken field made the boy suddenly depressed. She was very curious. To be more precise, he wanted to communicate with Kabinet.

At this time, Yan Ming checked the time first, and knew that he would not arrive at the briefing session in a while, but wanted to comfort Kabinet with words, so after thinking about it again, she had no choice but to say: "Anyway, we have already returned here, how about Let me tell you about your past, do you mind?"

Yan Ming is also somewhat aware that it seems offensive to ask such a question, after all, asking someone who has never met his parents to tell about his past will inevitably make others feel disrespectful.

It's just that Kabinet raised his mouth slightly, and said with a half-smile: "The past? My past seems to have nothing but football. I didn't understand why I wanted to live here for a long time when I was four or five years old. In the dormitory, I still clearly remember the moment when I knew the reason, the feeling... It was very complicated and uncomfortable."

Kabini's eyeballs remained motionless for six or seven seconds, staring at the broken field. This move was also seen by Yan Ming in her heart. She knew what Kabini meant by refusing to continue on this topic. Chat, so after a deep understanding, it is the beginning of another topic.

"What about your friends when you were young? You used to play football together, and it was so happy to hear you say it. Do you still keep in touch after you leave the nursing home?"

After Yan Ming asked, he flattened his head and paid close attention to the changes in Kabyne's face.

Seeing that Kabine's face really relaxed, she was not as wrinkled as before, and she understood that this topic seemed to suit Kabine's taste.

Cabine picked up a slight smile again, but he didn't rush to reply, but took a few steps to the middle circle of the broken field, this is where he and his childhood partners kicked off every time they played. , At this time, his body was standing straight there, and he lowered his head, rubbing the white paint dot on the kick-off line in the middle circle with the toe of his right shoe.

The white paint dots have been scraped away by the passing time, and Kabinet lowered his head at this time, wondering if the children in the home are still playing football?Just like the one when he played football happily with his friends in the past.

It wasn't until Yan Ming followed up and stopped behind Kabini that Kabini chose to answer Yan Ming's question at this time: "When my age meets the regulations for leaving the nursing home, I will carry the current weight on my back." The big black backpack you saw brought the money I earned from part-time jobs during the holidays, and then went to the Netherlands. At the beginning, I also contacted other childhood friends to communicate with each other. The situation of life, but after a long time, when I called them one by one again, they disappeared one by one."

Yan Ming raised his head and gave a "hmm" and said, "There are many temptations in the outside world. If you are not firm, you will easily lose your way. You seem to be expressing this meaning? Isn't it?"

Kabinet sighed and said: "Yes! When we left the home, we agreed to work hard together for our football dream, but it was only me who stuck to it. I know they have all given up on the original one. Dream, even if they stop answering my calls, I know very well that they have given up."

Yan Ming nodded and said: "Fortunately, you told your former partners with practical actions. If you persevere, you will definitely have a chance. Look at what you have obtained now. I believe they will regret it now." Bar?"

Cabine smiled wryly, and said: "I don't know if they regret it, I just remember that we had a lot of fun in this stadium."
