Big Eyed Thief and Little Monster

Chapter 8

Wang Jiexi put his hands behind his back, rubbed his fingertips lightly, and said, "Go back and rest." He didn't enter the training room, but walked upstairs to the dormitory.

The captain is leaving... Gao Yingjie thought to himself, the training base of the national team is in City B, the captain doesn't have to fly to gather early like professional players in other provinces, but if it is reported in the afternoon, he has to leave now anyway.

Like a soldier whose "follow" skill was clicked, he followed Wang Jiexi up the stairs.

When Wang Jiexi went upstairs, he picked up a phone call. When the two of them passed Gao Yingjie's room, he briefly put the phone away, turned around and shook his hand at him.

Gao Yingjie knew that it was the captain saying goodbye to him, so his heart ached and he felt a little uncomfortable.If I had known it earlier, I would not have gone out, and the gift I planned to buy for the captain was not bought, which made the captain angry, and even the last time we spent together before we separated was wasted.

He has an introverted personality, but he is not a timid and timid person in many things. He is so worried about gains and losses when facing the captain.

He stood in the corridor, listening to the captain's footsteps getting further and further away.

The captain's deep voice gradually became lighter.

Hearing what the captain said to the other end of the phone, Gao Yingjie's body froze suddenly, and he turned around in disbelief.The captain has already walked outside the door, holding the phone in his right hand, taking out the key from his pocket with his left hand, and turning the door lock.

click.

The captain seemed to have taken the wrong key, frowning, he put the key back in his pocket, and took out another bunch.

If you don't keep up, it will be too late.Gao Yingjie gritted his teeth, ran towards the opponent, and blocked the door frame with his hand just before the captain closed the door.

Wang Jiexi looked at him in surprise, but didn't say anything, and walked into the room assuming he was answering the phone.Gao Yingjie followed on impulse, but after entering the door, he didn't know what to say, so he stood in the corner and listened with his head down.

"No, I don't think I'm suitable for the position."

There seemed to be a moment of silence on the other end, and another question was thrown.

Wang Jiexi said without thinking, "The reason? Not suitable."

"Yu Wenzhou from Blue Rain, Han Wenqing from Tyranny, they are all qualified for this position." Wang Jiexi finally said, "That's it."

As soon as the phone was hung up, Gao Yingjie couldn't wait to say, "Captain... this call is..."

He mulled over his words for a while, "Are you invited to be the captain of the national team?"

It was precisely because he heard that the captain had rejected such an invitation that he couldn't help following up impolitely and impulsively asking questions.This is the captain's private matter, whether to agree or not is the captain's decision, he has no right to interfere, but a guess that came to his mind made him unable to dissuade himself with those words.

Since the third season, he has been the captain of Tiny Herb, why would he refuse such a position?

He couldn't help but think of the captain who no longer had to bear the weight of the entire team in the team competition at the All-Star Weekend.How can a magician who has been completely liberated perform dazzlingly?

Even if he thought of this idea for a moment, he almost couldn't help cheering.

"Yes." Wang Jiexi said frankly.

Gao Yingjie suppressed his beating heart, and asked in a trembling voice, "Captain, you...the reason for your refusal..."

Wang Jiexi looked at him, "Huh?"

"Is it because you can finally perform in the way you are most comfortable, best at, and most accustomed to?"

Gao Yingjie remembered that the captain once encouraged him like this, and he didn't have any scruples about the captain's feelings at the time, and asked, "But captain, do you always think that you are using the method you are most comfortable, best at, and most used to?"

How naive this sentence is, he already knows it now.

No captain of a team can express himself as he pleases.Even Han Wenqing, who is known for his tough personal style in the league, has made adjustments in the twilight years of his career to better adapt to the rhythm of the team.

Among the captains of all teams in the professional league, Wang Jiexi was undoubtedly the one who sacrificed the most.

Wang Jiexi has become stronger, in various senses.If professional players were to evaluate it, maybe everyone would say it was worth it.

But Gao Yingjie, who had watched all the replays of Wang Jiexi's matches from the third season till now, still had a faint sigh echoing in his heart.The magician Wang Buliuxing was sealed under the marble base, and on that icy solid stone were Tiny Herb's two championships.

In the seventh season, Tiny Herb won the championship again.

The most valuable player of the season, Wang Jiexi.

This award is well-received.But if the alliance also sets up an award speech like a certain award, then there is a high probability that there will be one sentence in the long provocative lines for Wang Jiexi-

In order to reward his contribution to the team.

In the final analysis, this award was more awarded to the captain Wang Jiexi who led Tiny Herb to win the championship for the second time, rather than the magician who once set up a rookie wall with his unrepeatable performance and caused the big teams to smash their heads.

"No, that's why I hope you can."

This was the captain's reply to him at the time.Even thinking about it now, there is still an urge to cry.

If he could go back to that time, he would never have asked this sentence.He'll tell the captain...he'll tell him...

Wang Jiexi said calmly, "Maybe."

"I'll take a good look!" Gao Yingjie blurted out.

Wang Jiexi looked at his flushed face and said, "Just to watch?"

Gao Yingjie said firmly, "I will try my best to learn from the captain!"

Wang Jiexi responded noncommittally, walked to the window, and set up a trolley case.

Gao Yingjie's eyes were already glued to his hands, and the moment he saw the trolley case, he recalled the fact that the captain was about to leave, and his mood suddenly sank.

"Is the captain leaving?" He looked at the trolley case that had been packed long ago, and said timidly, "But I..."

Wang Jiexi looked at him without turning his eyes.

"but I……"

Still have a lot of questions to ask the captain?No, no.If you really want to ask for advice, even if the captain goes to the training camp, as long as he boards the Glory, he can talk to him, and even play a mentoring match.If the national team cuts off the net for training, Tiny Herb still has so many senior teammates who can ask for advice, and they don't necessarily have to ask the captain...

Still have a lot to say to the captain?What if the captain asked him to finish talking now?In fact, I usually stay with the captain and don't talk much.Apart from glory, the two of them don't seem to have much in common.

So what?

The rolling sound of the pulleys of the suitcase seemed to crush his heart.Gao Yingjie was extremely anxious, and for the first time envied Huang Shaotian.If it was the other party, there must be a lot of things to say to Team Yu, and even 10 minutes can be said without repetition.But Young Master Huang didn't have to separate from Team Yu... In the end, he was still not good enough to stand beside the captain.

"Does Yingjie want to give me a parting gift?" Wang Jiexi said, "I just went out and bought it."

Gao Yingjie was shocked, "Captain, what are you doing one by one?" Except for Yifan, he never mentioned to anyone else that he wanted to buy gifts, and Yifan didn't know who he was buying gifts for.

Wang Jiexi rubbed his thumb lightly on the lever, "It's a good guess."

"You don't even patronize the milk tea shop in front of you, how can you waste half a day of training time to go out for a walk. If you go for a walk, you don't need to carry a backpack."

"The peripherals issued by the manufacturer, I remember leaving a copy for you every time. You will not go to the store to collect it again at the risk of being recognized. If you don't collect it yourself, then you will give it away."

"You one by one." Wang Jiexi paused, "Yifan's birthday hasn't come yet, so it's not for him. It's for me."

The captain's tactical analysis has always hit the nail on the head, Gao Yingjie never thought that it would be so overwhelming in real life.He pinched his palm and said, "I originally wanted to give it to the captain...but before I bought it..."

He lost his voice suddenly, because he saw the captain took out a bunch of keys from his pocket, and the keychain was hanging on the Wang Buliuxing pendant exactly like him.

Wang Jiexi nimbly twisted and pressed the keychain with his fingers, took off the pendant, held it in his palm, and returned the key to Gao Yingjie. "I have accepted the gift."

"This……"

Gao Yingjie's eyes could still follow the other person's movement, but his head was actually blocked like a downtown avenue in the morning rush hour, and he couldn't even move an inch.

Wang Jiexi took out another bunch of keys from his pocket as if by magic, and there was also a small pendant hanging from the silver metal ring.

Broom, cloak, peaked hat... This is also a peripheral pendant for a magus.

For Gao Yingjie, he was as familiar as Wang Buliuxing, a sorcerer.

His kindness.

Wang Jiexi took off the pendant, put it in his palm, spread his hands forward and said, "As a reward, this is for you."

Gao Yingjie subconsciously touched his pocket.When I went out in the morning, I was in a hurry, as if I left the house key in the training room.The key that the captain just handed over should belong to him, and the so-called "gift" received was the buliuxing hanging on his key ring.Then... Whose is the second set of keys that the captain took out?Why is there a wooden pendant hanging on it?

He looked at the key lock in the captain's palm, and his eyes turned red.

Seeing that he hadn't moved for a long time, Wang Jiexi folded his palms together, took two steps forward, gently put Mu En's pendant into his pocket, and then walked out with the trolley case.

"Keep working hard, Yingjie."
