Fox in the Penalty Area

A long time ago, it was popular to use the names of various popular songs or movies to arrange epilogues.

For example, there are seven days in a week, and every day everyone uses the name of a movie as an annotation.

Regarding Monday, I will use the classic Egyptian dubbing film "Towards the Abyss" to explain it, because the next five days of classes will be called an abyss.

Tuesday—"The Road is Long", it is still very early before the weekend, and it is indeed a long road.

Wednesday—"The Boundless Night", although two days have passed in a week, but for the five-day night, Wednesday is in the middle, and it is indeed a night.

Thursday - "Break Through the Darkness Before Dawn", two days before the holiday, dawn is in sight, but the night before dawn is often the darkest time.

Friday—"Homecoming Like an Arrow", the weekend is coming soon, everyone is not in the mood to study, just thinking about how to play on the weekend, naturally it is Homecoming Like an Arrow.

This is a meme that students like to play more than 20 years ago. As time goes by, students will not play like this anymore after more than 20 years, but the emotions and feelings are the same and remain the same.

There seemed to be more laughter on campus on Fridays than usual.

"What are your plans for Saturday?"

"Why don't we go shopping? I know there's a new milk tea shop on Chunfeng Road, and it's delicious. I just have to go early, the queue is really annoying..."

"Come to my house to play FIFA on Sunday!"

"No, I'm going to grandma's for dinner..."

...

Sounds like this can be heard in every corner of the campus.

And for those students who like football, there is one more thing to look forward to on Friday-at noon today, the school football team will post an announcement on the bulletin wall to inform who can be selected for the school team .

For them, this is the number one priority.

As soon as Hu Lai sat in his seat, a fat figure rushed up: "Hu Lai, tell me the truth!"

The poor and weak Hu Lai was firmly pressed on his seat by Song Jiajia's body, and his whole body was lying on the table, unable to move. He tilted his head and said with difficulty: "Excuse... on behalf of... what..."

"Tell me honestly what your relationship is with classmate Li Qingqing!"

"Yesterday...I said it all...she is...my...coach..."

"Coach? What coach?"

"Football coach……"

"How did she become your football coach?" Song Jiajia couldn't figure it out.

"Ahem, if you don't...don't get up...I'm going to be crushed to death..." Hu Lai's intermittent voice came from under the fat man.

Only then did Song Jiajia move her body away, releasing Hu Lai from under him.

"Cough, cough, cough..." Hu Lai coughed for a while, trying to catch his breath, and then began to explain the relationship between himself and Li Qingqing to Song Jiajia.

After Song Jiajia finished listening, her eyes widened: "You boy..."

Before he finished speaking, he covered his mouth, and then glanced in Luo Kai's direction.

Everyone knows that Luo Kai has a different attitude towards Li Qingqing, but Li Qingqing's attitude towards Luo Kai is relatively indifferent.

But no one expected that Li Qingqing would get so close to Hu Lai in private.

Song Jiajia knew exactly what Hu Lai's image was in the class.

There's nothing wrong with being a "clown".

But now, this "clown" has mixed up with the recognized "goddess"...

If Luo Kai found out, he might be going crazy, right?

Thinking of this, Song Jiajia couldn't help but cast a glance at Luo Kai, who was staring at Li Qingqing's direction.

At this time, Hu Lai hummed: "What are you thinking, our relationship is very pure!"

Song Jiajia continued to look in Luo Kai's direction,

Nodding again and again: "Yes, yes, you are pure, but Luo Kai is about to cry."

Li Zhiqun carried his schoolbag on one shoulder, tilted his upper body slightly, and limped into the campus with the flow of people, then he stopped in front of the announcement wall.

He found a space above it.

The corners of his mouth turned up when he saw this, because he knew what would appear there.

All the names that can appear on it will be selected for the school team.

This of course includes himself.

Although he only played for a short time in the test match, he left due to injury, and although he has not recovered from his foot injury, he believes that judging from his overall performance throughout the test, the school team should have a place for him .

The only thing that bothers him now is his injury. He has to catch up with the school team training as soon as possible, because he knows that there is not much time left before the qualifiers for the National Middle School Football Championship.

He was worried that when he recovered from his injury, the qualifiers would be almost finished.

But it's better than that idiot Hu Lai can't make the school team at all.

Thinking of Hu Lai, Li Zhiqun's mood improved a lot.

Today is the day when the answer will be revealed, and he must pay attention to the changes in Hu Lai's expression. Thinking about how Hu Lai looked like a bereaved dog at that time, he felt much happier...

With such a good mood, Li Zhiqun walked into the classroom of Class 1 and 2 of Senior High School.

Then he saw Hu Lai who was smiling happily at a glance. How could this kid be in such a good mood?

Li Zhiqun was a little surprised, and then couldn't help but sneered: "Hu Lai, can you still laugh?"

Hearing this, Hu Lai turned his head and looked at Li Zhiqun with a sad face: "I'm sorry, my condolences, Li Zhiqun."

Li Zhiqun was stunned for a moment before he came to his senses, and said angrily, "What are you sorry for? No one died in my family!"

Hu Lai was surprised: "Why don't you let me laugh if no one is dead?"

Li Zhiqun held his breath in his throat and almost coughed. Then he tried hard to control his emotions, and turned to look at Hu Lai with a victorious smile on his face: "The school team will announce the list of candidates today, so don't cry then."

"Crying with joy? Don't worry, I'm not that easily excited."

"Hi, sister!" Li Zhiqun was really upset with Hu Lai who was so troublesome. He felt that Hu Lai was talking about him and that he didn't dare to face up to the problem, so he decided to point it out directly and hit the nail on the head to make Hu Lai completely Can't get off stage. "You can't even be selected for the school team, what are you happy about!"

But after scolding like this, he saw Hu Lai raised three fingers at himself.

"Why?" Li Zhiqun asked with a frown.

Hu Lai said calmly, "I scored three goals."

Li Zhiqun was taken aback for a moment, but then he laughed: "What am I supposed to be... You think that you will definitely be selected for the school team because of this? Are you out of your mind? Oh, I remembered, of course you have something out of your mind …Haha! I tell you, those three balls don’t mean anything at all! You just got lucky! Any coach with a normal IQ would not choose you for this reason!”

Li Zhiqun frantically exported, mocking Hu Lai, his voice became louder and louder, and finally everyone in the classroom heard it, they all stopped what they were doing and turned their heads to look over.

Li Zhiqun doesn't like Hu Lai. It's not a secret in the first and second classes of high school, everyone knows it.

However, it is relatively rare for Li Zhiqun to be so violent in front of Hu Lai as he is now.

After all, the bickering between the two before was just a sentence or two and it was over...

Li Qingqing was very dissatisfied with Li Zhiqun's targeting of Hu Lai, and this person not only targeted Hu Lai, but also targeted his father everywhere. I said before that my father should let Luo Kai enter the school team directly, otherwise he would have no vision.

She frowned, and couldn't help but want to say something for Hu Lai in front of the whole class. She leaned her body, pressed her hands on the desk, and was trying to get ready to stand up.

Luo Kai, who had been staring at Li Qingqing, looked at this scene, and the guess in his heart seemed to be confirmed.

He seemed to hear the voice of his own heart breaking.

At this moment, Hu Lai interrupted Li Zhiqun's piercing voice: "Let's bet, Li Zhiqun."

Li Zhiqun froze for a moment, he didn't expect Hu Lai to say such a thing.

Hu Lai continued: "Bet. If I make it to the school team, you give me one hundred dollars. If I don't make it to the school team, let Song Jiajia give you one hundred dollars!"

"Ha, Hu Lai, it looks like you are really confident..." Li Zhiqun stopped before he finished speaking, because he found a blind spot.

Song Jiajia, who was sitting next to Hu Lai, also turned her head to look at Hu Lai in surprise: "Why should I pay you if you lose?"

Hu Lai looked at his deskmate sincerely: "Because we are friends."

"No...we are friends, and I don't need to pay for you..."

Hu Lai spread his hands: "I don't have that much money."

Seeing the two people fighting each other, Li Zhiqun laughed happily: "Hu Lai, look at the things you do all day long. You should not come to Dongchuan Middle School, but go to the hospital to see your brain! Ha! You two fight first talk later……"

With a loud bang, Li Zhiqun's laughter was interrupted.

Song Jiajia patted the table, pointed at Li Zhiqun and glared, "Okay, I'll pay the money!"

Li Zhiqun: "..."

other people:"……"

"Crazy you!" Li Zhiqun yelled after regaining consciousness. "What does this have to do with you!"

Song Jiajia held her head high and snorted, "Hu Lai is my friend!"

Standing next to Song Jiajia, Hu Lai gave him a thumbs up.

Seeing the appearance of these two people, Li Zhiqun felt that he was reasoning with two idiots, so he waved his hand: "Forget it, what are you two of me and you two of common sense doing..."

Going back to your seat.

But Hu Lai stopped him: "Bet, Li Zhiqun. Are you cowardly?"

What he did surprised the onlookers. Li Zhiqun obviously wanted to let Hu Lai go, so why did Hu Lai still refuse to let him go?

Although Li Zhiqun's attitude was rather harsh, he was right.

Hou Lai's three goals in that game were the product of obvious luck. Who's going to make the varsity team for three shitty goals? Then why does the school team still engage in such professional selection? Just let everyone buy lottery tickets and choose whoever wins the lottery, and whoever wins the largest amount will be the main player—isn’t this a joke!

But Hu Lai is so sure that he can enter the school team?

Did those three goals inflate him?

Seeing that Hu Lai was so sure, Li Qingqing thought of another possibility - she told Hu Lai so sincerely and seriously yesterday that he was talented.

At that time, she wanted to inspire Hu Lai's confidence and fighting spirit as much as possible, so as to prepare for the next year's training.

But she seems to have overlooked one point, that is, a person who has never been praised by others for his talent in football is suddenly told so sincerely that he has talent, how happy he will be...

Li Zhiqun smiled when he saw Hu Lai like this. He nodded vigorously: "Okay, bet! Don't regret it then!"

He pointed to Hu Lai and Song Jiajia, and sat down in his seat with a disdainful smile.

Seeing that the good show was over, the others withdrew their attention one after another.

After Song Jiajia sat back in her seat, she grabbed Hu Lai and asked him in a low voice: "Hey, Hu Lai, are you so confident that you will be selected for the school team? It's not that I'm reluctant to part with the one hundred yuan, I just feel that I lost to Li Zhiqun." That bastard is very upset..."

Hu Lai gave him a thumbs up: "Don't worry, Li Qingqing has already said that I have great talent!"

"That Li Qingqing?" Song Jiajia didn't quite believe it.

"She's very professional..." Hu Lai simply whispered to his tablemate what happened during this period, from Li Qingqing's super football ability, to her accurate guessing of the school team exam. content, and thus came to a conclusion: that is, what Li Qingqing said must be correct. Since she thinks that Hu Lai is talented, then the head coach of the school team must also think so, so the probability of him joining the school team is naturally high. Much taller.

Looking at the backs of Hu Lai and Song Jiajia with their heads together, Li Qingqing frowned.

She does think that Hu Lai's talent is very, very powerful, but there is still a long way to go between the great talent and the ability to realize this great talent.

Being talented doesn't necessarily mean you can become a professional player.

She has been by her father's side since she was a child, and she has seen many examples of super talents, but she didn't kick anything in the end.

She didn't want Hu Lai to become like that.
