Fox in the Penalty Area

The campus after school in the afternoon was full of voices. Students left the campus in groups, but there were also many people who were not in a hurry to go home. A lot of people gathered on the basketball court, and they were all using this time to play basketball with their classmates and friends to relax.

You can see a lot of people on the football field in the past.

But today on the football field, there were not so many people, and everyone surrounded the outside of the field.

Because today is the first training session of the school football team.

After that, every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday after school in the afternoon, the court will be requisitioned by the school team for forty-five minutes of training.

Curious people, or those who are interested in football, as well as fans of some people, are standing on the side of the stadium and stands on both sides at this time, surrounding the football field, watching the first training session of the school team.

The best view is on the rostrum in the middle.

Li Qingqing and Song Jiajia are now on it, looking down at the stadium.

"Thank you for what happened at noon." Song Jiajia said to Li Qingqing who was beside her.

Li Qingqing smiled slightly: "You're welcome."

After learning about the relationship between Li Qingqing and Hu Lai, Song Jiajia also felt that this matter is not polite, but he still wanted to express his gratitude, because he wanted to take this opportunity to strike up a conversation with Li Qingqing, and there must be a reason for two people to stand here and chat what.

"By the way, did you really use your mobile phone to record the video? Did you know that Li Zhiqun would regret it?" This was the question Song Jiajia wanted to ask the most.

After Li Qingqing stood up to speak for Hu Lai at noon, Song Jiajia became very curious.

Li Qingqing, who was asked this question, suddenly laughed happily. She took out her mobile phone and shook it: "Actually, I don't have any video evidence at all..."

Song Jiajia opened her mouth wide and looked at Li Qingqing in surprise. She didn't expect Li Qingqing, a classy woman with thick eyebrows and big eyes, to lie, and she lied to help Hu Lai.

"I guess Li Zhiqun didn't dare to let me play the video of him betting with you in public. Didn't he say nothing in the end?" Li Qingqing winked at Song Jiajia.

Song Jiajia burst out laughing, then turned his gaze to the distance, where Li Zhiqun was standing.

"The only regret is that Li Zhiqun seems to be planning to renege on his debt..." Li Qingqing's tone was full of regret.

Song Jiajia, who was looking at Li Zhiqun, smiled and shook her head: "No, this is a good result. Hu Lai and I already guessed that the kid would definitely not admit it. But as long as he doesn't admit it, Hu Lai and I can call him 'raspy' Li'. He asked for it."

Under his gaze, Li Zhiqun seemed to feel something, and turned his head to look over.

The eyes of the two met in the air, Song Jiajia had a provocative smile on his face, while Li Zhiqun quickly retracted his gaze, pretending to turn his gaze back to the court naturally.

"Look! Ha!" Song Jiajia proudly showed Li Qingqing.

Looking at Song Jiajia who was smiling happily, Li Qingqing said, "You look very happy."

"Of course I'm happy!" Song Jiajia nodded vigorously.

"But don't you like football? You don't like Hu Lai playing football either. Why..."

Song Jiajia waved her big hand like a cattail fan: "That's different. Hu Lai is my friend, I absolutely can't let others bully my friend! As for him playing football..."

He looked at the same table standing among his teammates on the court.

"I still haven't given up the idea of ​​taking him to eat chicken. You said he is talented. Although I don't understand football, I also know that talent alone is not enough. What else does Hu Lai have besides talent? Look, With his small body..." At this point, Song Jiajia shook his head, "I don't believe that he can make a name for himself in football. The school team coach may really think that Hu Lai is talented, so he was recruited into the team Yes. But I think when he discovered Hu Lai's true strength,

I'm afraid I will regret it. Maybe Hu Lai will be expelled from the team..."

Li Qingqing, who had a smile on her face, gradually disappeared after hearing what Song Jiajia said.

Because she knew that this fat man who didn't know how to play had touched on the key point.

She thought about what her father had said to her that night.

In terms of football, apart from talent, Hu Lai is simply a blank slate...

Although white paper is good for painting, there is no guarantee that a good painting can be drawn on white paper.

※※※

Hou Lai stood at the edge of the crowd, keeping a certain distance from his new teammates.

When he appeared on this stadium, many of his teammates cast unexplained eyes on him.

Curiosity, doubt, puzzlement, disdain...

These Hu Lai can feel that his teammates have no intention of hiding their thoughts.

But Hu Lai doesn't care about these things. For him, being able to enter the school team has already taken the first step successfully. The most important thing is that he appeared here, instead of just standing on the sidelines to watch the training like Li Zhiqun.

Thinking of this, he turned his gaze to the rostrum, and found that wretched figure in the crowd without any effort.

Seeing this scene, he was in a good mood, and the corners of his mouth curled up.

"Hi, Hu Lai, right? I'm Mao Xiao from Class 8, Grade 1."

Just when Hu Lai was feeling refreshed, a cheerful voice sounded in his ears, and then a shadow enveloped him.

Hu Lai had to look up to see who was coming. It was the difficult central defender he encountered in the test match.

"I just said that you will definitely be able to enter the school team! Meng Xi still doesn't believe it, ha!" The big man said to Hu Lai with a big smile on his face.

And the other big man standing next to him gave Mao Xiao a dissatisfied look: "How can you sell teammates as soon as you come up?"

Then he turned to Hu Lai and said, "My name is Meng Xi, and I'm from Class 16, Grade 1. I watched that game. I'm not bragging. If I was the goalkeeper, I guarantee you can only score one goal—the last one, I really can't react."

Facing the two teammates who took the initiative to say hello, Hu Lai did not respond enthusiastically, but took a step back and returned to the embrace of the sun.

Then he smiled and said to the two people: "Hello, my name is Hu Lai, from Class One and Two of Senior High."

Mao Xiao was very surprised: "Why do you take a step back?"

Hearing his question, Hu Lai couldn't help but rolled his eyes: "This way I don't have so much pressure... Do you know that you are too tall, and keeping your neck up is not good for your cervical spine."

Looking at Hu Lai who raised his head to answer him, Mao Xiao suddenly realized, and then he smiled very honestly: "I'm sorry, I'm always with Meng Xi, I'm used to talking to people who are about my height..."

Meng Xi who was next to him pushed Mao Xiao hard: "Go to hell, push everything on my head!"

Mao Xiao hugged Meng Xi with a smile, and then explained to Hu Lai: "We are classmates in junior high school. During the high school entrance examination, we discussed getting into a class, but he secretly scored 20 points more than me in the test, so we didn't get in." A class."

"What is sneaking?" Meng Xi turned his head and glanced at Mao Xiao disgustedly, "I scored 20 points more than you in the exam, that's my strength."

Then he looked at Hu Lai: "Mao Xiao is very optimistic about you. He is very happy to see you in the school team. It is different from some people..." He pointed back to the other school teams gathered with his thumb players.

Of course, Hu Lai knew that some people would be unhappy with his joining, but he still didn't care. He turned to Mao Xiao who smiled shyly, "Thank you."

Mao Xiao waved his hand: "If you can score under my defense, of course you need a few brushes."

Meng Xi pouted: "Are you praising yourself in disguise?"

Hearing this, Mao Xiao laughed honestly again.

At this moment, a loud scream suddenly sounded from the sidelines.

Meng Xi frowned, while Mao Xiao smiled and said, "It seems that Luo Kai is here."

"Shall we go over to welcome the applause?" Meng Xi shrugged and said sarcastically.

The three cast their gazes over.

Luo Kai didn't come alone, he came with the captain Chu Yifan and the vice captain of the school team.

He and Chu Yifan chatted about this while walking, the captain of the school team had a smile on his face, and seemed to be in a good mood.

"I heard a theory." Meng Xi said suddenly. "It is said that Chu Yifan regards Luo Kai as his hope to go to the national competition. He thinks that Luo Kai can lead our team to defeat Jincheng's Jiaxiang and get a place in the national competition."

Mao Xiao pointed at Hu Lai: "Hu Lai and Luo Kai are classmates."

Meng Xi turned his attention to Hu Lai.

Hu Lai nodded: "Well, Team Chu did go to our classroom to find Luo Kai. The scene was the same as a domestic idol drama."

"Tsk tsk." Hearing Hu Lai's description, Meng Xi smacked his lips, then looked at his good friend: "Mao Xiao, can you prevent Luo Kai from scoring?"

Mao Xiao smiled and shook his head: "No. That Luo Kai is really strong..."

He told the truth, he didn't feel offended by this question, nor was he ashamed to admit the strength of others, but before he finished speaking, Meng Xi slapped Hu Lai on the back: "Congratulations, Hu Lai ! You are already at the same level as Luo Kai!"

Mao Xiao: "?"

Meng Xi ignored the bewildered expression of his good friend, and continued: "You and Luo Kai both scored goals under Mao Xiao's defense. It seems that we can also pin our hopes of going to the national competition on you. Holly!"

Hu Lai nodded vigorously: "Okay!"

Mao Xiao was very helpless: "Hu Lai, don't mess around with Meng Xi..."

Meng Xi seemed very happy with Hu Lai's cooperation, he laughed and patted Hu Lai's back vigorously.

His laughter attracted the attention of others, including Luo Kai and Chu Yifan.

When Luo Kai cast his gaze here, he immediately saw Hu Lai standing between Meng Xi and Mao Xiao.

The faint smile on his face froze for a moment at this moment, and his eyes became sharper.

But soon, in less than a second, all this feeling disappeared.

"Strange..." Meng Xi muttered. "Why do you feel that kid's eyes are not friendly... Mao Xiao, do you have a grudge with him?"

Mao Xiao denied, "I've never had any contact with him."

Meng Xi looked at Hu Lai again, but before Hu Lai spoke, he shook his head and looked away: "It's even more impossible for Hu Lai... Could it be that he came for me?"

Immediately afterwards, Meng Xi's eyes lit up: "The striker's lifelong enemy is of course the goalkeeper! Well, your opponent, I will follow!"

He also squeezed his fist and made a clicking sound.

Beside him, Mao Xiao looked at Hu Lai speechlessly, his eyes seemed to say: Don't pay attention to this psychopath.
