The Strongest Demon Front

When Chu Ge, along with his Manchester United teammates, returned to Manchester with the freshly baked Europa League trophy, he was greeted by fans all over the city.

The entire Manchester Airport is full of people.

Manchester City even dispatched a large number of police to maintain order, and police cars cleared the way all the way to escort the players into the city.

When United won the league four days ago, there was no big celebration.

At that time, the team also needed to prepare for the final of the Europa League.

That was their last game of the season.

Now, they beat Ajax.

They are back.

With victory.

With a trophy.

"It's time for celebration!"

On Manchester Albert Square, facing tens of thousands of fans, Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham personally held the celebration ceremony.

His words opened the prelude to the carnival of Manchester United fans.

Albert Square is the heart of Manchester, between Deansgate St and Mosley Street, named in honor of Queen Victoria's husband Albert.

It has witnessed countless glorious historical moments.

Today, the mayor of Manchester City has witnessed the revival of Manchester United here.

Andy Burnham watched the cheering people leave Albert Square in an orderly manner, and walked in the direction of Old Trafford.

He let out a long breath of relief.

not long ago.

There has been a very nasty terrorist attack in Manchester.

American singer Ariana Grande held a concert at the Manchester Arena. After the concert, a group of thugs detonated a bomb in the venue and launched a suicide attempt. The explosion killed 22 people and injured 59, causing great trauma to the people of Manchester.

People suffer for it.

At this time, Manchester United's championship, especially the two-line championship in the league and the European arena, undoubtedly diverted people's attention to the greatest extent and helped them get out of their sad emotions.

Life itself is not happy.

It can be painful at times.

But fortunately, people can choose to face life and those sufferings with an optimistic attitude.

"A celebration of winning the championship will not save the lives lost in the disaster, but it can heal the pain and make the survivors face tomorrow with strength."

"I hope they can be happy, at least tonight."

Mr. Mayor silently sent blessings to his people.

Looking at the happy fans, he couldn't help but think of a player in Manchester United.

A very special player.

After the bombing attack, senior leaders of his country immediately expressed their condolences to England.

And that player even used his four goals in four days to keep two heavy trophies in this troubled city.

"I and the people of Manchester should thank you."

The mayor looked at Old Trafford from a distance.

...

Chu Ge and his teammates boarded the bus specially prepared for the championship celebration.

The bus is heading for Old Trafford.

On both sides of the road, there are Manchester United fans in red.

The fans sang and happily marched towards Old Trafford with the bus.

Chu Ge and his teammates stood on the roof of the car.

Looking at the happy fans, Chu Ge showed a happy smile.

This isn't your first time at a championship celebration.

last year.

In Madrid, the capital of Spain.

He and his teammates once went to the Harvest Goddess Square together to celebrate the team's eleventh Champions League trophy and the league championship.

The situation then was very similar to now.

Although the fan groups are different, the happy smiles of the fans are exactly the same.

Chu Ge looked around.

The fans wore Manchester United's home jerseys, rendering the world in front of his eyes in an overwhelming red.

Everywhere is red.

The whole city is in red.

In a trance, what Chu Ge seemed to see was not Manchester United's championship celebration, but the scene he saw when he was five years old, sitting on his father's shoulders.

Red flags are waving.

The whole city sings.

...

"Chu, what are you thinking about?"

Rooney patted Chu Ge on the shoulder, interrupting his thoughts.

Chu Ge rubbed his eyes.

He smiled at Rooney, shook his head, "No, I didn't think about anything."

"Haha!" Rooney didn't care, he stuffed the Premier League championship trophy into Chu Ge's hands, "It's your turn. The fans are shouting your name! Lift up the trophy! Now is the time for joy !"

Chu Ge laughed.

He took the trophy and raised it high towards the fans on both sides of the bus.

"Viva Chu Ge! Viva Chu Ge!"

The fans immediately applauded.

They chanted Chu Ge's name and sang for him.

Cheers immediately surrounded Chu Ge.

Such a taste of happiness is intoxicating.

After enjoying the cheers for a while, Chu Ge passed the trophy to De Gea, and he himself walked from the roof to the side and sat next to Rooney.

"Thank you, Chu!"

Seeing Chu Ge approaching, Rooney hit Chu Ge's chest with a small fist.

He took the initiative to hug Chu Ge.

"Tell me thank you. We are a team." Chu Ge disagreed.

Rooney pointed to the captain's armband on his arm. "That's what I said. You didn't have to give me back the captain's armband."

Chu Ge smiled, "This is originally yours, Wayne (Rooney). I just kept it temporarily. If you played in the game, you should have worn the armband. You are our captain."

"But I didn't play, did I?" Rooney laughed too.

Seeing that Chu Ge was about to speak, Rooney motioned for him to finish first.

"Now, the captain of Manchester United is me and you. And this," Rooney pointed to the captain's armband on his arm, and then pointed to the team emblem on the left chest of the jersey, "after all, it belongs to you."

"I'm lucky and my Manchester United will be lucky. You'll be a good captain, one of the best."

Rooney stared at Chu Ge, looking at Chu Ge very sincerely.

His words came from the heart.

No hypocrisy.

Chu Ge was also looking at Rooney, "Wayne, have you really decided? Are you really planning to leave here next season? You know we all like you, including the fans here, and they all support you."

Chu Ge pointed to himself, and then to the fans singing outside the bus.

He tried to persuade the old captain to stay.

Rooney smiled and shook his head.

He patted Chu Ge on the shoulder.

"My mission has been completed, and it is time to finally leave."

"You can't stay in the same place for a lifetime, and I've been here long enough. I've seen Ronaldo leave, I've seen Neville leave, I've seen Giggs, Fletcher, Van Persie, and others. Leave, and now, finally, the time has come for me to leave."

"To be honest, I never imagined that when I left this city, I would be able to complete my curtain call at Manchester United as a winner with the honors of the league title and Europa League title."

"It's a pretty perfect HE, isn't it?"

"I'm very content."

"I can't thank you enough to end everything here with such a perfect posture. At the beginning of this season, I never dreamed that when the season ended, I would still have three championship trophies. I had a fantastic season."

Rooney couldn't help hugging Chu Ge again.

He liked the young man so much.

"If I were still young, if time could go back ten years, Ronaldo was on my left and him on the right. The boss is really healthy. How wonderful it would be. The three of us can definitely start a career."

"It's a pity, time is not forgiving."

Rooney couldn't help thinking, and couldn't help shaking his head.

The rolling Yangtze River flows eastward,

Time is the most ruthless.

"One league title, one Europa League title, are you satisfied? Do you think it is the most perfect curtain call? What if we win the league title again next season? What if we win the Champions League next season?"

"Wayne, stay. We can do more miracles."

Chu Ge tried to persuade the old captain to stay in the team.

Rooney laughed.

"Young people really dare to imagine more than I do." He patted Chu Ge on the shoulder.

"We will indeed be able to participate in the UEFA Champions League next season. However, the UEFA Champions League is different from the Europa League. It is much more difficult and is not at the same level. In the UEFA Champions League, participating teams are all champion teams from various leagues. There are indeed some teams that are not as strong as the opponents we faced in the Europa League, but the average level is far beyond the Europa League."

"Especially some super teams like Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, Juventus, etc., not to mention the teams in the Europa League."

"It is undoubtedly very ambitious to make a difference in the Champions League, even to win the championship. However, things need to be done bit by bit, and a championship team cannot be built in a day or two. And I, already It's the final stage of your career."

"I have won the Champions League trophy here before, and I know what kind of happiness that is. However, I should not wait for the day when I will win the Champions League again."

"Chu, I hope you can achieve this goal as soon as possible. Together with my Manchester United."

Chu Ge still wanted to persuade.

But it is clear that Rooney has already made up his mind.

He has even contacted the team he will play for next season.

For a proud man like him, sitting on the bench to win a championship is enough. He hopes to return to the place where the dream started and re-enjoy the joy of being an indispensable role for the team.

Chu Ge couldn't convince him, so he had to give up.

...

The bus stops at Old Trafford.

Chu Ge insisted on not wanting the captain's armband, Rooney smiled and accepted it generously.

At Old Trafford, in the Theater of Dreams, Wayne Rooney was the captain of Manchester United for the last time, holding high the Premier League and Europa League, as well as the previous League Cup trophy.

The salute roared.

The audience cheers.

Chu Ge stood behind Rooney.

Witness the curtain call of an era.

This night is a festival for Manchester United and their fans.
