you are all star

Chapter 34 Twenty Dollars
Seeing Reddy's pensive expression, Lavender tentatively asked, "Reddy, what are you thinking about?"

Reddy was startled by Lavender's question, and immediately recovered from his reverie, smiled and shook his head: "Nothing?"

Lavender nodded slightly in doubt.

Afterwards, Lavender said goodbye to Neil and Reddy, and left with her sister.

Neil looked at Reddy, pointed at the backs of Lavender and her sisters, and said with a smile, "Reddy, why don't you go after them?"

After hearing Neil's question, Reddy suddenly seemed to be a little confused about Neil. Neil, you really know how to pretend. You are still pretending at this time.

In fact, Neil is not as nasty as Reddy thought. He really hopes that Reddy and Lavender can be good friends forever.

Reddy thought for a while, but didn't know how to answer Neil, so he couldn't match his words: "That's not necessary."

"why?"

"Because... hey, forget it, I'm going home, goodbye!"

Neil was very curious to hear Reddy's appetite so much, but he couldn't force it, so he nodded to Reddy to say goodbye.

As soon as Reddy left, Louis yelled at Neil not far away: "Neil, come back."

"Dad, what's the matter?"

"You come first."

After hearing this, Neil hurried towards his father and a large group of people surrounding Louis.

After running closer, Neil realized that the group of people surrounding his father were reporters.

Seeing Neil running towards them, they hurriedly terminated the interview with Louis, ran towards Neil with a microphone in his hand, and asked with a smile on their faces: "Student Neil, what is the last vote you voted for today?" The ball really hits the heart with an arrow. May I ask, how did you make it? Because the average child, as old as you, many of them can't even shoot two points, let alone three-point lore, and they are against it. You made it under the pressure of being behind, you are amazing!"

Neil saw that they were reporters, and Neil had also seen it on TV before. After each game, they were surrounded by gangs of journalists for interviews. This is actually a very honorable honor, but Neil Nervous, Neil was afraid that he might say the wrong thing, and he would not be able to answer the reporter’s professional and direct questions, because, on the one hand, Neil was afraid of revealing his background, that he grew up in a slum, and his mother had a have severe heart disease.

He glanced at the reporters, ran behind his father in a panic, stared at his father, and asked in a low voice, "Dad, why are they here?"

"I don't know either. I chatted with the headmaster for a while, and they came shortly after the headmaster left."

Neil scratched his head with a thoughtful expression.

Neil heard the sound of cameras clicking behind him. He thought the reporters had left, so he poked his head out from behind his father and saw that they were taking pictures with cameras, and the flash was so loud and harsh that Neil I wanted to plug my ears, then pointed at them and said, "Why are you all taking pictures of me and my father?"

Ke Neil still held back the words that were about to come out, and continued to retract his head, hiding behind his father.

When the reporters saw this situation, they knew that Neil was disgusted and rejected them, but they still smiled cheekily at Louis and asked, "Louis, what's the matter with your son?"

"Leave him alone, he may have never been on camera, he is a little nervous and scared?"

"Oh... that's what it is!"

"So, based on this situation, I'm sorry, you should go back!"

Louis originally wanted to smile and put on a friendly expression, politely saying to drive the reporters away, but Neil's last three-point shot came to mind again, and they didn't want to give up halfway, didn't want to give up, and wanted to Let go and fight for a little hope for yourself, then smiled and said: "But your son hasn't answered my question yet."

"what is the problem?"

"How did he develop his skills?"

"You should ask him this question!"

"But he's hiding behind you, we can't force it."

"It's simple. Turn your heads away, and I'll finish it by talking to him alone."

"Okay, please!"

As soon as the voice of response fell, the reporters turned their heads away.

Neil had already heard their conversation behind him, and he didn't know what kind of trick his father was playing, but he was full of curiosity.

Louis squatted down slightly, put his hands on Neil's shoulders, put his mouth close to Neil's ear, and whispered: "Boy, if you want to have a bigger stage, show your skills and realize your dreams, you You have to get used to being a reporter. Don’t be afraid, just say what you think? Even if you let them know your background, it’s okay, it’s okay, you believe me, because, for our family, it’s about being a down-to-earth person , Be honest and honest, there is no need to hide anything, tell them everything you have endured, after all, you are about to graduate soon, and the school for junior high school has not yet been found, but if we are honest and respect their hearts For them, they might be able to help our family."

After hearing this, Neil also felt that what his father said was right. He had seen it on TV before. The power of reporters is still huge. Many dark things, once they were exposed, most of them got better.

Thinking of this, Neil nodded to his father, expressing his agreement.

Seeing that Neil had already nodded, Louis patted his shoulders a few times with both hands, then stood up straight and looked at the reporters: "Okay, you can turn your heads now."

The reporters heard the hopeful voice echoing in the air, and their hearts were instantly filled with the hopeful voice. Their faces were filled with infinite joy and happiness. They turned around and stared at Neil and Louis with a slight smile. "Neil, can you answer our questions now?"

"of course."

"You tell us to listen."

"Actually, the reason why I just avoided you, avoided you, and didn't want to answer your questions is because I was born in a slum in a poor family, and my mother suffered from serious heart disease. I have been suffering from this kind of disease since I was young. She has a strange disease. Until now, she has not been checked and treated. The reason why I play basketball is to make money, treat my mother, and make the family live better; on the other hand, I like basketball. , and regarded it as a dream since I was a child. As for the reason why my golf skills are not bad, the reason is that I have a good father and a good mother. School, I have suffered all kinds of grievances again and again, and every night no matter how tired I am, I will run with me at night, do you know the night view of Alexandria?"

They listened to Neil speak so sincerely, and they kept nodding their heads in response to him.

When Neil suddenly asked about the night view of Alexandria, the reporters were stunned, shook their heads unknowingly, looked at Louis, then at Neil and said, "We don't know this, if you know, tell us Say it, it must be very beautiful!"

"I don't know how to answer you. In short, when you climb to the top of Resurrection Mountain in the night full of stars in the sky, you will know everything."

"Okay, thanks for telling us the secret."

"No. Finally, let me say one more thing. The only reason I can play well is because of hard work and twenty dollars."

When the reporters heard about twenty dollars, their curiosity plopped into their hearts. They stared at Neil and asked, "Twenty dollars? What do you mean? Can you explain to me?"

"Actually, to you, twenty dollars is nothing, but to me, twenty dollars is enough to take my mother for an examination and treatment."

When Louis and the reporters listened to Neil's explanation, tears kept rolling in their eyes, and they didn't know what to say, so they could only stare at him, rubbed their eyes, and said with relief: "Good boy, you are amazing. Already!"

Neil just scratched his head, looking at his father and the reporters with a smirk.

After a while, the reporters suddenly smiled and encouraged Neil: "Son, come on, for twenty dollars."

Neil clenched his fists, looked at them with a smile, and nodded: "I will!"

"Come on, we have confidence in you!"

Although Louis has always known that Neil is very sensible and filial, he has never seen him as sensible and filial as he is today. He is so considerate of others. Tears can no longer be held back. They suddenly overflowed and wiped them away with a smile.
