wipe the ice and fire

Not long after Du Qingshao returned to the lounge, Pan Lishu received a call saying he wanted to go out for a while.He didn't ask curiously, nor did he pay attention to the game situation on the electronic screen. As soon as they stepped out, he immediately dug out something like an MP3 from his bag, put on his headphones and started listening.

When I came back to my senses, the short program was over.The ranking was fixed on the electronic screen, and he was ranked fourth by five points, failing to surpass the imaginary enemy Blue Coke.

But what surprised him was that Ma Jiabo's results this time were still not satisfactory, and he was almost at the bottom of the six.

Seeing the score, Du Qingshao could guess how many mistakes he had made, he felt a little bit in his heart, and ran out directly, forgetting to close the zipper of his backpack.

Having had a medical examination before the game, he walked all the way along the corridor and found the infirmary easily.Sure enough, before he knocked on the door, he heard a familiar voice from inside.

"I know, but I have persisted until now, and this season is not bad. Besides, Xiao Du is still young after all, I don't want to put too much pressure on him."

"His ability to withstand pressure has always been strong."

"However, no matter how strong he is, he is still a human being. We still have to give him some time to accept the current situation."...

Du Qingshao knew what they were discussing as soon as he heard it, as if he had been stabbed by something, and planned to reach out to open the door.

The moment his hand touched the doorknob, he was still stunned—he felt that he should respect the other party's choice, and pretended not to know.

Standing at the door and taking a few deep breaths, he adjusted his mood and walked back.When they arrived at the lounge, Dilan also came back and was packing up his things and preparing to leave.

Du Qingshao leaned against the door with his arms crossed, and glanced in coldly.

After finishing tidying up, Dylan saw him when he went out, his eyes wandered, and he greeted with a smile: "Hi, we meet again..."

Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, he was grabbed by the wrist.Taking advantage of the situation, Du Qingshao glanced sideways, and directly locked him in place by virtue of his height advantage of a few centimeters.

"What are you doing?" Dilan was stunned for a moment, shrugged his shoulders, seamlessly changed into a smile of sudden realization, and narrowed his eyes maliciously, "Miss your choreographer teacher?"

Du Qingshao gritted his teeth when he heard the words, and slowly let go of his wrist, but his back molars clenched even tighter: "In terms of technique alone, you are an athlete I admire very much. I hope you will not let me down."

"That's natural. Tomorrow's game is over, and I'll let you lose." He stretched out his hand and flexed his wrist before striding away.

Du Qingshao stood there for a few more seconds before turning his eyes away and walking into the room.

The schedule was still going on in an orderly manner, and the so-called accident did not happen.Luo Ming couldn't relax, bit his lips so white.After the men's singles ended yesterday, Di Lang immediately took him back to the room. The two had a cold war all night, so he missed the best time to remind Du Qingshao.

But having said that, he didn't know how to mention this matter to Du Qingshao.He and Durand have always maintained a delicate balance, but this time the other party would take the lead in breaking this relationship, and even bring danger to unsuspecting outsiders.

At this moment, he could no longer look directly at Du Qingshao who was warming up on the sidelines, and felt that he was not worthy of the "teacher".

Durand took him with him on purpose, but without saying a word, he contentedly admired his flustered appearance.

On the field, Ma Jiabo, who is currently ranked fifth, is competing.His free skating is selected from the domestic martial arts movie "Sui Han", which is a set of classic national style programs.

After so many years of practice, Du Qingshao can roughly see the state of the opponent.Although this program has reduced the difficulty composition, I almost fell off the ice a few times, and twisted back with an extremely incredible posture.However, the gliding is still smooth and natural, and every movement is stretched just right.

By the age of 26, the physical load no longer allowed him to have too much obsession with the gold medal, but he still hoped to leave the best side to the audience and to the 14 years of sweat from the youth group to the present.

He looked away calmly, glanced sideways at Di Lang and Luo Ming beside him, and silently clenched his fists.

"Give him a little more time, and I believe that when it's his turn, he will do better than me."

Yesterday's conversation popped up from the back of his mind, and he let his thoughts go for a moment, seeing that Ma Jiabo had returned to the sidelines, he smiled at himself.

This may be the last time they compete on the same stage, and the last time they say cheers to each other face to face.

Du Qingshao suddenly felt a burning sensation in his heart, so he took a half step forward, raised his hand and hammered his shoulder, and said "thank you" softly with his mouth.

Even he himself didn't realize that the boy in the rebellious period had become much more delicate.

The familiar music sounded, he took a deep breath, and slowly let go of the complicated emotions just now.The music gradually changed from tragic to soothing, and the few jumps he was most familiar with were all done well, but in the second half, Axel's fateful triple axel fell again.

Not only was the axis crooked, but the center of gravity was not found after falling off the ice, so he turned over naively and supported the ice with his right hand.

Fu Bing's movement wasn't too big, but it still instantly stimulated the nerve endings, making him take a light breath.

In fact, Du Qingshao is not good at blade jumps. The several quadruple jumps he has mastered so far are ice jumps. He can't explain the specific reason, but he can only guess that it has something to do with his sense of space.

Left-handers are definitely different from ordinary people in some respects, but there is no better coach in China, so he can only figure out his own way.

Temporarily changing the structure after a failed jump seems to have become his daily operation. Remembering that he is still sick, the coach outside the field and Luo Ming both became nervous at the same time.

But this time he didn't make his own claims, and co-authored the music to complete the final performance in a regular manner.

Back on the sidelines, Ye Feihong handed him the knife sheath, looked him up and down: "You didn't change it arbitrarily this time? Finally know how to cherish yourself?"

"You mean to tease me, don't you?" Du Qingshao rolled his eyes at him, then subconsciously glanced at Luo Ming who was hiding outside the court.

Ye Feihong followed his eyes without any trace, and pointed out without hesitation: "I feel that you are not very focused today."

"What?" He was stunned when he heard it, and he denied it flatly, "How could I make fun of the game."

Seeing this, the coach didn't say anything, walked to the waiting area, and suddenly raised his hand to pinch his shoulder.Du Qingshao was caught off guard by him, and avoided in disgust.

"Let Xiaopan take you to check after you go back."

"I'm really fine, don't be suspicious." Du Qingshao snapped back.

But he usually has such a daily personality, but now he suddenly restrains himself, and anyone who knows a little bit feels that something is wrong.Fortunately, the results did not fall too far. There were no obvious mistakes in the two programs. Instead, they won the best of the season with 270.93 points, temporarily ranking first.

However, if you want to compete for the top three medals in the world with this result, it still depends on the performance of your opponent.

Du Qingshao pouted, obviously not very satisfied with this result, and walked back to the lounge.

The game was still going on, and he hadn't had a long rest when he suddenly heard the staff of the game knock on the door and sent a notice for random inspection.

Post-competition random inspections generally only exist in large-scale sports events, especially competitions such as track and field weightlifting, and some will check for several rounds.Before this, Du Qingshao had never encountered such a situation.

However, he had a fever and took medicine infusion before the game, and it is not impossible for him to misuse any medicine.Seeing the sudden notice, even Pan Lishu's face turned pale.

Du Qingshao glanced at him indifferently, stood up and asked, "Isn't the ranking out yet? Or is there something wrong with my previous AB bottle?"

"It's still being inspected. Random inspection is an additional process. I hope you can cooperate." The answer given by the other party was ambiguous.

He nodded knowingly, took the list and looked at it carefully, then turned to Pan Lishu and said, "Why are you nervous, I haven't violated the rules, and it's fine to smoke a hundred times."

But now the most troublesome problem for him is - he just went to the toilet before the game, and he seems to be unable to urinate for a while.

If I stay there for a long time, I don't know if someone will worry about me.
