Shadow Killer of the Restricted Zone

Chapter 1 Forced to Leave
"Li Xuan, come here, Manager Wu is looking for you."

As soon as Li Xuan finished training, he saw the assistant of the team manager Wu Qingyang standing on the sidelines to greet him.

Li Xuan's heart sank. As the main person in charge of the team, Wu Qingyang was very busy with his work every day and rarely dealt with the players directly.And it's a fringe player like me who can't even make the roster, and I only saw it a few times when I first entered the team.

Li Xuan suddenly had a very bad premonition in his heart.Looking back at the training field, those familiar and unfamiliar teammates and coaches were talking and leaving in twos and threes, and no one even looked at me.

Although it has been almost a year since I came here, Li Xuan and these teammates are only limited to say hello, they are acquaintances, that's all.

A year ago, Li Xuan joined this Chinese first team - Hongtai as a star player in the high school league.Although Hongtai is only a mid-range team in the Chinese Premier League, it is still a Chinese Premier League team.

At that time, Li Xuan was full of ambition, thinking that he would soon enter the big list, become the starter, and become the core.Then he was favored by the Chinese Super League team, became a real football star, and entered the pinnacle of life.

But the reality is cruel.Although Li Xuan has been playing football since he was a child, he has never received any professional training.At best, it was varsity-level practice, even though his high school team was a national champion.

He didn't know the difference between a real professional and an amateur until he entered Hongtai.

Not only the time of training, but also the intensity is greatly increased.There are also complicated training programs, many of which he has never been exposed to before.

Li Xuan soon became a star on the training ground, not because of his excellence, but because of his clumsiness.No one wants to team up with him, because Li Xuan will seriously slow down the training speed.

Li Xuan felt like a clown. In the eyes of his teammates, he only saw banter.

Li Xuan tried his best to train himself, but in the eyes of his teammates who had received this kind of training since childhood, he was still clumsy and full of mistakes.

Almost a year has passed, not to mention entering the big list, and I still can't keep up with the training.This made Li Xuan a little desperate, because he felt more and more that the head coach's patience was about to be exhausted.

Maybe today is the end.

Li Xuan felt a little sad.It turns out that the job is so difficult, and what I thought before was too simple.

Silently walked into Wu Qingyang's office.

Wu Qingyang looked at Li Xuan, how brilliant this young man used to be, even though he was only in the high school league.I thought it could bring hope to the team, but it seems that I still think too much.There is indeed a natural barrier between professional and amateur.

But after all, Wu Qingyang has worked hard in the workplace for many years, and he has seen and experienced too much.

Wu Qingyang quickly cleared up his mood, with a professional smile on his face.

"Li Xuan, sit down."

Li Xuan felt a little heavy, and sat silently on the sofa.

Wu Qingyang poured two glasses of water, one was placed in front of Li Xuan, and the other was placed in front of himself.

"Thank you, I'm not thirsty."

Li Xuan doesn't have the heart to drink water now, he is like a prisoner waiting to be executed, he only has fear and sadness in his heart.

"Don't be nervous, I just want to chat with you casually today."

After hearing this sentence, Li Xuan became even more nervous.A character like Wu Qingyang, how can he have time to chat with a small character like himself.

"Time flies so fast. You have been in the team for almost a year. Seeing that I am busy all day, I don't know how you are doing in the team?"

Although Wu Qingyang's words were very peaceful, in Li Xuan's ears, they seemed to be questioning.

"Mr. Wu, I'm sorry. I failed your expectations." Li Xuan's head almost fell to his chest.

"Relax, Li Xuan, I'm not blaming you. It's really not that simple to play professional games. After all, you haven't received systematic professional training before. I know you work hard, but everything needs a process, this process It can be long and difficult. Take your time and I'm sure you will succeed."

Wu Qingyang's very professional talk moved Li Xuan a little. After all, he was just a high school student.I still don't understand the difference between sincerity and politeness.

"Thank you Mr. Wu, I will work harder."

Li Xuan's touch can only be turned into a verbal guarantee, although this guarantee is only regarded as polite words in Wu Qingyang's ears.

Wu Qingyang nodded in satisfaction, no matter whether the guarantee is useful or not, the foreshadowing of this conversation is enough.Yes, the above encouragements are only the foreshadowing of Wu Qingyang's real talk this time.

"Li Xuan, I believe you will work hard. But professional players still have to participate in competitions in order to get real training and transformation."

Li Xuan couldn't believe his ears for a while, participating in the competition?Isn't this what he dreamed of?
However, he still can't keep up with his training, the head coach will let him play?Is this a pie in the sky?
Li Xuan even thought he was dreaming, so he quickly stood up and promised: "Mr. Wu, I will definitely try my best to participate in the competition. Thank you for giving me this opportunity."

Wu Qingyang knew that Li Xuan had misunderstood him. Although it was cruel to puncture other people's dreams, isn't this the cruelty of a profession?

Who made me impulsively sign Li Xuan for five years.Looking at Li Xuan's situation now, it is estimated that he will not be able to play in the First Division, even if he is transferred to the second team, it is not worth it.

"Li Xuan, I am a straightforward person, I hope you don't mind. With your current situation, it is more difficult to play in the First Division."

Wu Qingyang's words caused Li Xuanru to be struck by lightning, and his heart sank to the bottom of the valley.It turned out that I was whimsical. With my own level, how could the team let me play.

Li Xuan's face was a little pale, his teeth were biting his lips tightly, his heart was ashes, like a prisoner waiting to be executed, waiting for the final sentence.

Wu Qingyang didn't seem to see Li Xuan's expression, and continued: "It's like this, now there is an opportunity. Tianyu Club has cooperated with us, and they urgently need to add a forward. I won this opportunity for you. This opportunity is right for you now. It’s hard to come by. But we still want to ask for your opinion.”

Wu Qingyang's words were very tactful. Although he was very polite, he was not so much asking for Li Xuan's opinion as he was giving an ultimatum.

The reason why the tone is tactful is that I don't want to make any trouble when signing the contract.In fact, Hongtai has completely given up on Li Xuan, and now he just wants to find someone to take over the offer, so that he can bear part of the salary and reduce some losses.

Because Li Xuan signed the contract directly back then, there was no transfer fee, so Li Xuan's salary was about the same as that of a full-time player.The second-tier team would not pay such a high salary at all, so Li Xuan could only join Tianyu on loan, and both parties would bear part of the salary each.

"Tianyu." Li Xuan knew this club was a second-tier club.When he won the high school league championship, there were also second-tier clubs looking for him.

Perhaps if there was no Hongtai back then, Li Xuan must have been looking forward to joining the second-tier team.But now that he can't get along in the first class, and is driven to the second class in despair, the feeling is naturally completely different.

Li Xuan was silent for a long time, and he didn't know what he was thinking.It seems that I have thought a lot, but it seems that I have not thought of anything.

After a long time, Li Xuan seemed to have finally made up his mind.Stand up abruptly.

"Mr. Wu, I agree to join Tianyu."

When saying these words, Li Xuan felt tears rolling in his eyes.But he gritted his teeth hard to keep the tears from flowing.

"Come on, this is your home, you are welcome back anytime."

Wu Qingyang spoke in an official tone again, and said some high-sounding words, but his eyes were already a little impatient.

"Thank you, Mr. Wu. I'll go out first if it's okay."

When Li Xuan turned around, tears could no longer stop pouring from his eyes.But it doesn't matter, no one will see, these tears flow only to myself.

Li Xuan did not go back to the dormitory, but came to the training ground again.

The entire training ground was quiet and empty.

Every day at this time, Li Xuan is practicing here alone.

But after so long of hard work, it was still a dream after all, and everything was over.

Li Xuan took out a few footballs from the training room and threw them scattered at the front of the penalty area.Then he ran casually from one side to the other, kicking the ball when he encountered it.

Each football draws beautiful arcs in the sky and runs directly to the goal.Li Xuan didn't even look at it, and continued to run forward.When I ran to the other side, I looked back, and those footballs were lying quietly in the goal, without exception.

This is Li Xuan's talent since he was a child.His sense is very accurate, he doesn't have to look at the goal at all, and he doesn't have to think about how to kick it at all. As long as he can touch the ball, he can kick the ball towards the goal.Anti-aircraft guns, misses, etc., have never appeared on Li Xuan.

It's a pity that no one in Hongtai has noticed Li Xuan's ability.Everyone only saw that his training performance was very poor.The speed is not fast, the explosive power is insufficient, the physical confrontation is poor, and the breakthrough with the ball is almost [-]% blocked by the defenders. When defending, he is even swayed by the opponent.

In short, in the words of the head coach, I don't even know where he can play.

Kicking the ball towards the goal over and over until it was completely dark.Li Xuan suddenly lay down in front of the goal, looking up at the starry sky, he didn't know what he was thinking.Just looking at the starry sky quietly, I don't know when I fell asleep.

When Li Xuan woke up, it was already dawn.He was also taken aback, he didn't expect to sleep on the court all night.But it doesn't matter, this is the last time I am in this stadium, so I said goodbye at that time.

Li Xuan jumped up and carried the ball back to the training room from the goal.Looking back at the training ground again, he strode back towards the dormitory.
