[Han Zhang] One thought

13.

It was only after arriving in City B that Zhang Xinjie realized first-hand what "time flies like a shuttle", as if he hadn't done anything, the time passed by for several months, and in the blink of an eye, the exam was just around the corner.

At the moment, he is fully focused on preparing for the exam, and has not contacted Han Wenqing for several weeks, and Han Wenqing has no complaints, it is very simple, Tyranny's schedule is enough for him to worry about - the old and new Tyranny finally stumbled With the No.8 score in the regular season, Di barely squeezed into the playoffs. In the first round, he faced the No.1 Tiny Herb team in the regular season.

Tyranny's fans hardly dared to have any expectations for such a duel, but the whole team still planned to give it a go - winning was a gain, but losing was not a loss.

Zhang Xinjie naturally knew nothing about these things, until he went to the supermarket on the weekend to buy daily necessities, and was recognized by a fan of Tyranny, who stopped him and asked him what he thought about the schedule of Tyranny's playoffs .

"Sorry, I have already retired from Team Tyranny, is it wrong to dictate Tyranny's competition now?"

The other party was obviously stunned, but Zhang Xinjie quickly left without giving the other party a chance to ask questions.

He didn't care about this episode, and after returning, he devoted himself to the review.What he didn't expect was that in the evening of that day, a post titled "Tyranny's ex-captain ignored Tyranny after retiring" appeared on the Glory domestic official forum.After 8 o'clock, when Tyranny's public department noticed this post, it had already been promoted to the homepage of the forum, and the number of hits and replies hit a new high for the day.

"Damn, why didn't I know that Tyranny still has such a high degree of attention? Who said before that we have become a third-rate team?"

Han Wenqing was so angry that he slapped the table and cursed. The public relations department of Tyranny was more troubled than him - at this moment, no matter what they said, it was inappropriate.Saying "Tyra knows that Team Zhang has always cared about us" is undoubtedly slapping Zhang Xinjie in the face, and saying "We wish Team Zhang all the best after retirement" is pushing Zhang Xinjie into the pit of fire.

In the end, the Tyranny Club decided to deal with the matter coldly and wait for the public opinion to subside by itself, but they underestimated the influence of the Internet. In the evening of the next day, a reporter from "E-Sports Home" called Tyranny's manager, Ask Tyranny what he thinks of that popular post.

The manager was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot - Tyranny has never been good at dealing with such trap-filled questions - fortunately, that reporter was Tyranny's team reporter for many years, and responded to the manager's anxiety with the utmost sympathy. Reasonably, he tolerated the manager talking about him on the phone, and asked if he could interview Han Wenqing, who was still working in the Tyranny team.

This time the manager's head got bigger, but he still tactfully conveyed the reporter's request to Han Wenqing. At this moment, Han Wenqing was clearly out of sorts, but in order to avoid further aggravating the situation, he gritted his teeth and nodded. , and told the manager that he needed to communicate with Zhang Xinjie first.

After dismissing the manager, Han Wenqing went straight to the common room, took out his mobile phone, and after much hesitation, he still dialed Zhang Xinjie's number.

After a while, Zhang Xinjie's tired voice came from the receiver: "Hello? What's the matter?"

Han Wenqing took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said word by word: "Comrade Zhang Xinjie, congratulations, you have made a big mess."

"what?"

The other party's unaware appearance made Han Wenqing furious even more, but he couldn't find any reason for the attack, so he had to be patient and explained to Zhang Xinjie what happened in the past few days.

There was a moment of silence on the opposite side, and after a while, Zhang Xinjie said slowly: "If Tyranny needs it, I can come forward and explain..."

Han Wenqing only felt that his lungs were about to explode: "What are you worrying about Tyranny? Why don't you worry about the impact on your own reputation?"

The other party was obviously stunned, and there was another silence in the receiver.

"Why am I worrying about my reputation? I have already retired, so my reputation has no effect on me... If this has a negative impact on Tyranny, I will come forward and explain. You can call me to that Reporter, I told him myself; if there is no one, let them go."

"Zhang Xinjie, what's wrong with you..." Han Wenqing was at the end of his words, a swear word stuck in his throat, and he couldn't swear for a while.

"Wenqing, you're in a bad state right now," Zhang Xinjie said suddenly, "You've got your priorities straight—the playoffs are about to start, and you're still worrying about my reputation. What does this have to do with the game? Will people scolding affect Tyranny's morale? If this kind of thing still happens, it will only prove that I am not far enough away from Tyranny, and Tyranny is still shrouded in my influence - this is not good."

Han Wenqing was so choked by his words that he couldn't speak. After a long silence, he asked sullenly, "Then tell me, what should I do?"

The other person seemed to be silent too. The two were far away on the phone. Han Wenqing was about to speak out to persuade him, but he heard the other person lower his voice and say softly: "I'll call Tyranny's public relations department... Don't worry about it, just do what you have to do."

"Okay..." Han Wenqing replied in a muffled voice, "You—take care of your health and study hard."

"Okay, you also pay attention to your body."

"Do you want me to accompany you during your exam?"

"No need? At that time, the playoffs should not be over yet..."

"Do you think Tyranny can make it to that point? Our first opponent is Tiny Herb..."

"That's it..." Zhang Xinjie's tone was completely enlightened, and Han Wenqing who was opposite him was once again inexplicably angry: "I'm cooperating with you and said that it's inconvenient for you to point fingers because you don't know anything?"

"I really don't have time to care about this right now..."

"Forget it, let's hope for the best and plan for the worst—you should prepare for the exam first, and I'll come to you when the game is over."

"Ah."

After talking with Zhang Xinjie, Han Wenqing really didn't care about this matter anymore. He declined the interview request from "E-Sports Home" and devoted himself to Tyranny's preparations for the playoffs—even though he had already decided to leave the team. development plan, but when the team asked him for help, he still couldn't sit idly by.

Two days later, Team Tyranny's official Weibo published a letter written by Zhang Xinjie. In the letter, he explained his whereabouts and plans after retiring, and also explained why he refused to comment on Tyranny's match schedule. On the one hand, he was busy reviewing Homework, no time to pay attention to Tyranny's competition; on the other hand, he doesn't want Tyranny to stop because of his influence, but hopes to be able to go into battle lightly and blaze his own path.

This letter still caused quite a stir on the Internet, and fans' comments on it can be said to be mixed. In fact, it is not uncommon for a player to completely fade out of everyone's sight after retiring. Against the backdrop of Tyranny's conscientiously working "model workers", Zhang Xinjie's actions seemed "irresponsible".

But Han Wenqing has already made up his mind not to pay attention to these public opinions. On the one hand, he can understand the mentality of the fans. He was harsh on Zhang Xinjie's retirement; on the other hand, he also believed that the players of Team Tyranny, like him, would not be shaken in their pursuit of the championship by the reputation of the outside world...

However, the faltering Tyranny team still failed to survive the first round of the playoffs, and was swept by the amazing Tiny Herb team in just two games. The record can be described as "terrible".After the game, the once subdued public opinion once again fermented to the point of horror, and some people even believed that Zhang Xinjie should be responsible for this fiasco - he retired "too early".

"What's all this mess?" Han Wenqing threw the latest issue of "E-Sports House" on the table, and the movement shocked everyone in the office.

The manager spread his hands: "This is too mean-team Zhang has been playing for 14 years, so it's too early to retire? Has no player in the same period played longer than him?"

"It's gone." The people from the public affairs department also shrugged their shoulders, with a helpless expression on their faces, "Yu Wenzhou retired a year earlier than him—the support and treatment career will be longer than the DPS players, but it's not a perpetual motion machine..."

"Maybe it's because Team Zhang was in good shape when he retired..."

"Fart!" Han Wenqing couldn't help but swear, "I don't know what state he is in? 14 years is already the limit, and he has been beaten very reluctantly in the last year. If he continues to fight hard, it will be against him, against him. Tyranny is no good!"

The manager and the people from the public department looked at each other and reached a consensus with their eyes - let's deal with this matter coldly. If we continue to entangle with the fans, I'm afraid it will never end.

However, Han Wenqing's promise of "going to City B to accompany Zhang Xinjie to take the exam" still failed to be fulfilled - Tyranny started replaying the playoffs before the end of the season, and began to plan the development of the next season.

Since Han Wenqing chose to come out of the mountain again, there was no reason for him to return to hermitage again, and he just accompanied him all the way.But this time, he didn't let his will override Song Qiying's thoughts, but only put forward some supplementary opinions on the sidelines.

And Zhang Xinjie's exam went quite smoothly. After leaving the exam room, he guessed that Han Wenqing should have finished his work, so he sent Han Wenqing a WeChat message: "Can I answer the phone?"

After a while, Han Wenqing called.

"finish exam?"

"It's over, how are you doing?"

"We lost, and we're replaying."

"Still busy now? How about I give it to you at night?"

"It's okay, the replay is over, I'm planning to go to dinner... How is your exam?"

"It went smoothly, and there should be no problem crossing the line."

"Well, do you want to come back and stay for two days?"

"I was just about to tell you - I don't plan to go back, I'm just waiting in city B to apply for volunteers and get the admission letter."

"Okay, take care, I'll find you when I'm done."

Han Wenqing's words still failed to be fulfilled—after the replay, the season came to an end, and Team Tiny Herb won the championship without any suspense; the league has also entered the offseason and summer transfer period, and the major Teams began to recruit reinforcements one after another.With the retirement of Zhang Xinjie, the last player of the "Golden Generation", the league has once again entered a cycle of alternation between the old and the new. After a season of reshuffle, the structure of the league has not yet been finalized. This transfer period is still full of wolves and few meats, and the competition is fierce.

Han Wenqing called Zhang Xinjie, and after explaining the final results of the league, he turned around and devoted himself to Tyranny's new season planning, recruiting reinforcements; He took a photo and posted it in Moments, and soon he received a bunch of likes and countless comments like "student master" and "excellent". The funniest thing is Huang Shaotian, who commented Zhang Xinjie hastily scanned through a comment of more than 600 characters, but couldn't remember anything except "I wish you success in your studies".

At around 11 o'clock in the evening, after he finished washing and fell on the bed, he finally saw a like from Han Wenqing and a short sentence of "Come on". He looked at the screen and smiled, and replied "Yeah". Words, stuffed the phone under the pillow, and closed his eyes.
