Stand-in king

"Ah??" Xu Ming was stunned when he heard that, "I wasn't prepared at all?"

Knowing that he was not in the starting seat, Xu Ming felt as if he had gone on vacation early. He had a great time playing for several days, and now he didn't have anything about Shennest in his mind.

Just when they were hesitating, the second round of the group arena was over, and when the three of them walked off the competition stand, they saw a gloomy cloud on their own player's stand, and the excitement on their faces faded immediately.

"What's wrong?" Sun Tianrui asked.

"Ruishen, Brother Xu just said he went to the bathroom, and he hasn't come back yet." A substitute spoke out, and said it first.

"Ah?" Sun Tianrui was taken aback.

"Are you finished?" Xu Jinghui was also stunned, "So fast? What's the result of the game?"

"Didn't you watch it?" Ge Chengyang asked, "We're tied!"

Originally, when Ge Chengyang came down, his Fengrunner opponent had more than ten percent of his HP left, and he had already given up on today's result. Who knew that Sun Tianrui played very well today, and his luck was also favored by God. After several big moves in succession of critical strikes, he actually snatched the opportunity to die with the opponent when he was behind by more than ten percent of the opponent's blood volume.

The probability of the same death happening in PK is very small, but the competition in the God's Nest has been held for nearly four years, it is impossible that it has not happened. According to the precedent, the two teams will not score points in this situation. Biggest team battles to decide the outcome.

"Is it even?" Another substitute said in surprise, "Shen Rui is amazing."

"It's okay... What do you mean that brother Xu didn't come back?" Sun Tianrui was more concerned about this.

"Literally." Xu Jinghui said, "The team match starts after 5 minutes. If brother Xu doesn't come back, we can only temporarily replace the substitute... Fortunately, this NGCC allows temporary substitutions, otherwise there is really no other way."

"No... where did he go?" Sun Tianrui felt that this matter was very unreasonable, "Brother Xu is not such a person who loses the chain temporarily? Have you looked for the toilet?"

"I've looked for it, but there's no one."

"Where's the tobacco shop nearby?"

"I went to see it too, no."

"Uh..." Sun Tianrui pursed his lips, "I'll call him."

"I've called." Xu Jinghui said, "No one answered. If you call for a while, he should run out of battery."

"I'll just call one, and I'll come back if you don't pick me up." Sun Tianrui didn't obey, but still walked to the backstage stubbornly, "Come right away."

"Uh..." Xu Jinghui resentfully put down the hand that wanted to hold him.

As Sun Tianrui walked, he recalled the little things that happened today. There was nothing unusual about Mo Xu's behavior, so he probably didn't have something to hide from him.In other words... What happened to him temporarily?

Who will it be?Meng Xun?Or Zhang Fan?

To be honest, Sun Tianrui didn't have the contact information of these two people, and he couldn't be sure if Mo Xu was called away by them, so calling rashly was just a warning.

So who else should you turn to?Erhu?

Hu Xiang is the only one he knows, Mo Xu's old friend, but this is said to be the manager of the Red Hell team, it seems that it is not very appropriate to find him.

Although the thought was long, in fact Sun Tianrui only hesitated for a few seconds after walking to a place where no one was around, and then directly dialed Mo Xu's number.

At this time, it is still most useful to find me.

"beep……"

……

"Sorry, the call you made is currently unanswered."

Sure enough, they did not answer the phone as they said.

Sun Tianrui put down his phone and began to think in distress.

He is restless.

This kind of anxiety is not only about not being able to find an important player at the beginning of the game, but also contains a kind of anxiety. He clearly knows that he and Brother Xu have a special relationship, but finds that he can't find anyone. I feel exactly the same sense of loss as anyone else.

Others couldn't guess where Mo Xu went, and neither could he.

He was really... agitated.

Suddenly, he realized that perhaps for Mo Xu, he was not very different from others.

"I thought..." he muttered to himself, "at least he would answer my calls."

"Maybe I didn't hear it..."

There was no time for him to linger any longer, there was only a 5-minute break between the team competition and the group arena, and soon he would be on stage as the starting player for the team competition.

Sun Tianrui sighed helplessly, put his mobile phone into his trouser pocket and prepared to go back.

Who knew that just as he took a step, a familiar voice stopped him, "A Rui!"

Sun Tianrui turned his head in surprise and saw Mo Xu running towards him.

It was very hot, and he was running out of breath, and there was still a thin layer of sweat on his forehead.

"Sorry, I'm late." He gasped, "Why are you here? Is the second round over? How did it turn out?"

"It's a tie..." Sun Tianrui suddenly came back to his senses, "Where have you been?"

"There is something temporary, and it has been dealt with." Mo Xu smiled, "If it is a tie, no points will be scored? Then we have to work hard at the end."

"Well." Sun Tianrui was a little skeptical, but didn't ask any more questions. The match will start soon, and the important thing now is not to worry about the whereabouts of the opponent.

Once the person was found, nothing else mattered. The five of them hurriedly lined up in a simple line, walked onto the stage one by one, and under the announcement of the host, officially started the last game of the season.

This game will determine the champion of this NGCC.

Whether it is the commentator, the audience in the audience, or the players who failed to play.At this moment, there is an indescribable excitement and expectation in their hearts.

Xu Ming wiped off the sweat that didn't exist on his head, and said to the substitutes next to him with lingering fear: "Fortunately, brother Xu is back, he scared me to death."

"Look at how promising you are..." The substitutes looked at each other and smiled, "You can only be a cheerleader."

"Then I must be the best cheerleader, and my heart is with the starters!" Xu Ming said.

"Hey, do you think we will win?"

"I will?"

"We must have confidence in our team. No matter what the final result is, we must first believe that we can win!"

"Your idealistic theory is becoming more and more like Pan Hai..."

"It doesn't matter, we can win!"

……

"We can win!!" They shouted in unison at the end of the game.

This team battle lasted for an hour.In the end, Sun Tianrui's magic guide sent three big moves one after another, harvesting the two blood-skinned players on the opposite side, and thegenies won.

"Let us congratulate thegenies for successfully breaking out of the loser's bracket and winning the championship of this year's NGCC!" Xiaoxiao said excitedly, "I also applaud the Red Prison team for their hard work today, and look forward to better results in the coming year!!"

"Oh!! We won!!"

After the game, the big guys had to go on stage together to accept the award from the official representative in a dignified manner. The team members had to suppress their joy of wanting to tell the world, and pretended to be gentle to accept the award.

Although Mo Xu also served as the coach, he was neither good at this kind of speech occasion, nor had time to prepare the manuscript in advance, so he handed over this matter to Xu Jinghui, who was used to social occasions.

After finishing his beautiful speech, he was finally able to leave the stage. The players stuck in the backstage look at me, and I look at you——

"Celebrate! Let's go!"

According to the rules of the team, if you win, you have to go to the club.

A group of people walked towards the side of the road noisily, preparing to take a taxi each, and Sun Tianrui was also about to follow, but Mo Xu stopped him.

"A Rui, wait a minute."

"Huh?" Sun Tianrui looked back at him.

Unknowingly, the sky is already dark, it is the time when the green and yellow are not connected, the day has not completely faded, the night has come back, and at the darkest time, even the other party's face can't be seen clearly.

Looking back from Sun Tianrui's point of view, the only thing that can be seen clearly are Mo Xu's glass-bead-like pupils, which reflect the light of the street lamp and look extraordinarily radiant... There seems to be something different in his eyes.

"I have something for you." He said, took two steps, walked up to Sun Tianrui, touched his pocket, and took out a small box from it.

"What?" Sun Tianrui was stunned for a moment, "You didn't really go and get a diamond ring, did you?"

It was a square inch velvet box, generally speaking, it was used to put jewelry such as diamond rings and pendants.

"I'll give you a diamond ring, will you wear it?"

"will not."

"Then it's over..." Mo Xu said, "Open it and have a look?"

Needless to say, Sun Tianrui has already started. To be honest, he is also quite curious about what gift Mo Xu will prepare.

"This is...a pendant...isn't it, a keychain?"

He took the item out of the box and found that it was a silver keychain. The silver ring on the top had already explained this point, but what caught his attention was the uniquely shaped pendant underneath.

"Is this a trophy?" Sun Tianrui looked at it and found that the pendant looked exactly the same as the NGCC championship trophy. It was completely a miniature version, and he immediately laughed, "You made it?"

"Yeah." Mo Xu nodded.

"When was it ordered?"

"some days ago."

"You knew we would win the championship?"

"I have confidence in us... Besides, even if we don't win the championship, this can still be used as a consolation prize."

Mo Xu scratched his head, found another one and shook it in front of him, "Look, this is a pair."

Sun Tianrui might not be interested in another look, but this look suits him very well.

He looked there cheerfully for a long time, then suddenly said: "Actually, I have a present for you too."

"Huh?" Mo Xu was a little surprised, when did Ah Rui...

"You didn't prepare a ring, but I prepared a ring." Sun Tianrui said a little embarrassedly, "I'm not ashamed to bring it here... I put it at home, and I'll give it to you tonight."

"Diamond ring?" Mo Xu didn't know whether to cry or laugh. Is this child determined to be a "husband"?

"No, it's just a pair of rings...it's very simple, two men's styles, without diamonds." Sun Tianrui said, "I thought...it's weird for us to wear diamonds, so let's keep it simple."

"Ah."

"Will you wear it?" He looked at him.

"Dai, why don't you wear it?" Mo Xu put his arms around his shoulders.

Now on the street, two people can only walk side by side in such a "good brother" posture, but even so, as long as there is this person around, it seems to be able to make people feel satisfied.

The two took a taxi, followed in the footsteps of the main force, and went to the shop where they used to order skewers.

"Hey, it's a holiday later, shall we go out and play?"

"Okay, where are you going?"

"I don't know...Let's think about it later. Finally, I can take a rest after busying for a while."

"Then think about it slowly. This time, maybe I can have a week off?"

"more or less."

"There's no rush... I'll watch it when I wake up. Hey, why didn't you answer the phone during the previous game? Where did you go?"

"Ah...that ah..."

……

Mo Xu didn't really want to talk about this at first, and the Sun family's parents had said that it was best not to tell Sun Tianrui, but A Rui couldn't stop asking, so Mo Xu finally said it.

Just as the parents guessed, Sun Tianrui was really angry, but at that time the two elders had already left the motherland and went on to do their work, but the sky was far away from the emperor, so they couldn't feel his son's anger.

He had always wanted to ask his parents what they had said to Mo Xu, but Mo Xu refused to answer him when he asked this question. He only knew that his parents did not object, so he had no choice but to give up and not mention the matter again.

Three months later.

After the news came out, things got worse and worse. Seeing that Meng Xun was ruined and completely stink in the circle, but Mo Xu never saw him again, Meng Xun seemed to have evaporated in place and disappeared without a trace.

Zhang Fan may have finally gotten tired of playing, so he withdrew his capital from Tianwu, and the team disbanded afterwards.Mo Xu heard from Mr. Zhao that his incompetent nephew was fascinated by a new field again, so he tossed about to his heart's content. Mo Xu smiled and didn't say anything else. Originally, he didn't think much of Zhang Fan. In my eyes, it would be best to leave the e-sports circle.

Tianwu disbanded, but the professional league of God's Nest became more and more prosperous.Ten years of feng shui has turned, the former waves have died heroically on the beach, and the latecomers have continued to rise to the top. Several teams with outstanding performances in this NGCC are expected to become the top four teams of the new generation and compete with the old teams.

After the genies won the championship, their popularity soared, and various manufacturers threw olive branches one after another. New sponsorships and new endorsements were simply softened, which made Xia Tian's tail unable to train properly.

After giving himself a period of time off, Mo Xu decided that this could not be the case. He firmly stated that the team will enter a closed training state. I would like to ask the manufacturers to adjust the time and finish the activities as soon as possible, so as to give the players enough time to prepare for the next NGCC.

As for Mo Xu and Sun Tianrui?The two of them live quite well. Today Mo Xu goes to Sun’s house for a meal, and tomorrow Sun Tianrui goes to the small room in 1102 to eat takeaway with Mo Xu. When he is full, he takes a bath and plays games comfortably. You can play with each other.

Sun Wenqiong didn't notice how they looked like no one else was there. Fortunately, school started soon, at least she could hide in school during the day, and she didn't have to be caught in the middle to make a big 3000-watt light bulb. She immediately felt much more at ease.

It's just that, one day, after asking them on a whim, who was going up and who was going down, I felt like I should be mad at my brother for not being up to date, or whether I should kick out the tenant who stole her Chinese cabbage.

Soon, it will be another winter season.
