New Century Basketball Frenzy

Chapter 12

On his first night in Los Angeles, Zhang Yi unexpectedly encountered a troublesome woman, and Zhang Yi was very upset.

Early in the morning, he put on his sportswear and went to the training hall alone.

Soon, a home court and training hall with a dilapidated appearance appeared in front of him.

Since the Polly Pavilion was built decades ago, it has witnessed the decline of the Bear family, a famous basketball school.

In the morning, there is no one else in the arena except an old black man who cleans.

"Sir, do you know where the training room is?" Zhang Yi asked him.

The cleaner just glanced at Zhang Yi and pointed to the bathroom.

Zhang Yi quickly shook his head and said, "I'm looking for a training room."

"Boy, I mean the training room." Following the direction of his finger, Zhang Yi noticed a small door next to the bathroom.

"By the way, you are very lucky. I don't usually have the keys to that house."

The man threw an old key to Zhang Yi who was walking towards the hut.

"Thank you." Zhang Yi nodded to him.The cleaners just put their headphones back on and went on working.

It's just that in his impression, Zhang Yi was the first child to come to training so early in recent years.

Walking into the hut, the broken equipment inside was beyond Zhang Yi's imagination.

Not only is the model old, but the most important thing is that it is dirty. There is a thick layer of floating dirt on the machine, and there are spider webs hanging in several places.

Zhang Yi sighed, then went out to find the cleaner, he wanted a bucket of clean water and a few rags.

"What's the name?" the old man asked. "Yi, what about you?" Zhang Yi replied politely.

"George." He replied, and then jokingly said to Zhang Yi, "Although it sounds like a white man's name, my real name is George."

Zhang Yi smiled slightly, "George, seriously, what's going on with this arena?"

George scratched his bald head, and said reluctantly, "This place is cursed by God."

Zhang Yi tilted his head.George saw the boy's awkward smile and knew he didn't believe what he said.

He spread his hands and continued, "I've been cleaning here for more than 20 years, and I know all the shit that happened here."

Zhang Yi sat with him in the auditorium.

"Do you know why the Bears haven't gotten good grades for so many years?"

Zhang Yi shook his head.In fact, he didn't know much about this college team except for the little information Wali disclosed to him yesterday.

George's tone suddenly became low, "It's not that the Bears haven't produced capable players over the years, although I've only seen you since you came to training so early."

Zhang Yi showed a big smile.

"But they are all cursed without exception." George's eyes fell on Zhang Yi, as if in his opinion, this yellow-skinned kid was likely to be next.

"Hey, hey, George, you don't have to scare me. I don't believe in God and the devil." Zhang Yi said indifferently.

George sighed, "You probably won't believe what happened to them when I tell you."

"The year I was transferred to clean up, the star of the team was a black guy named John. Huh, I still remember that strong guy, but he didn't play a game in the NCAA. Do you know why?"

Zhang Yi looked at George suspiciously.

"Because the officials of the college basketball league did not recognize John, saying that his identity was questionable. Can you believe it? The hapless John wasted four years like this."

"There are also a few boys after that. Some innocent people were shot before the start of the game; some lost their faith and had mental problems after a fiasco; some fucked girls and got sick...the curse has always surrounded this arena."

After saying this, George stared at the boy he had just met, and he was surprised to find that Zhang Yi's eyes did not dim because of this, but became more determined and energetic.

Seeing that his own words didn't stop the kid from continuing to play, George lifted his big butt, "I've talked too much today, give me a dollar as a tip for telling you these stories, I'll buy it A can of coffee to soothe your throat."

Just as Zhang Yi was about to take out his pocket, Wali suddenly appeared in front of them.

"Yi, don't give it to him." Wali said with his eyes wide open.

However, Zhang Yi smiled and took out a dollar and handed it to Old George, "The stories you told are very interesting, but only this time!"

George took the banknote, kissed it and winked at Zhang Yi, "God will bless you."

Wali glared at the cleaner unwillingly, implying that he would not trouble Zhang Yi again.

"If you are like this today, he will often harass you in the future."

"It doesn't matter. Having said that, you also got up quite early." Zhang Yi patted Wal-E on the shoulder, and picked up the bucket with one hand, "Are you interested in cleaning the training room with me?"

Wally nodded, and the two walked into the hut.

"Hey! This place is really disgusting. I couldn't get in because I didn't have a key when I came here a few days ago. Could it be abandoned?"

Wacker picked up the old photo frames scattered all over the place, and the photos recorded the past glory of the Bears.

Zhang Yi picked up the rag and wiped it from the inside.And Wacker is also sorting out the sundries accumulated here.

Time passed quickly, and the originally dirty training room regained a little of its former glory after the two cleaned it up.

Wacker's watch suddenly chimed. "breakfast time!"

He got up and said to Zhang Yi, "Would you like to have breakfast with me? The cafeteria on campus has a nutrition window specially set up for sports students. Your mobile phone has already downloaded the student card."

Zhang Yi nodded.The two locked the room and left the gym.

UCLA's cafeteria is not small, but there are only three windows for sports students.

"Hey, isn't this Wacker's son? Everyone, make way for the second generation of Xing!" said a tall but brainless guy.

Wali held back his temper and pretended not to hear the naked irony in the other party's words.

Zhang Yi saw that they were dressed like they were playing rugby, and wondered if the rugby team in this school was very strong?Obviously not.

Seeing them pick up the dinner plate, the man motioned for his companion to occupy the window first.

A few guys from the rugby team were choosing their meals proudly.

Zhang Yi and Zhang Yi waited for them to leave and were about to cook, when the boy from just now came over again, "What kind of rice do you eat, just eat what we have left."

"Yes!" Zhang Yi said suddenly.

The boy was a little dazed for a moment, but he immediately laughed, "Did you hear what this yellow boy said? He wants to eat our leftovers."

Everyone laughed mockingly at Zhang Yi.

"No, I haven't finished talking yet. Do you dare to compete? The loser gets leftovers!"

Zhang Yi handed the dinner plate to Wali, ignored his whispered dissuasion, walked to a dining table, and slammed his arm on the table heavily.

"What's your name?" The boy came over and asked arrogantly. "You don't deserve to know my name."

"Don't dare to compare, do you? I think your mind is full of leftovers every day?"

Zhang Yi's words detonated the boy's simple brain, and he sat down angrily and raised his thick arms!

The spectators gathered around at once.

"Hey, I'm Jack Strong! You're going to lose badly in a while!"

Zhang Yi moved his wrist and waved to Jack.

Jack's big hand snapped at his wrist.

The two strike a pose and the other football team guy serves as the referee.

Game start!Jack exerted strength instantly, and the muscles in his arms burst out with blue veins instantly. He wanted to easily kill this little yellow boy in seconds.

However, everyone exclaimed, because the wrists of the two of them did not move at all after half a day of fighting.

"What's the situation!" Jack knew very well that he had used all his strength.But is this kid's wrist made of iron?He couldn't break it!

"Jack, what are you doing? Pull him hard."

"Nonsense! I've tried my best a long time ago!" After Jack finished speaking, his face flushed instantly, and several blood vessels burst out on his forehead.

Everyone looked at Zhang Yi in surprise, his expression was still relaxed.

"Have I tried my best? Haven't I done my best yet?" Zhang Yi said with a sneer.

"Impossible!" Everyone screamed.As soon as Zhang Yi's words fell, Jack's hand was instantly snapped away.

One of Jack's teammates yelled, "The yellow guy must be cheating."

"If you are not convinced, you can line up one by one!"

Several big boys were frightened by Zhang Yi's words, because among them, Jack was the most powerful.

Lost by myself, and in front of so many people!How could Jack lose face? He clutched his aching wrist, got up and was about to leave.

"Let's go now? Do you dare to do it or not?" Zhang Yi picked up a plate of leftover food that was eaten by someone around him, and there were a few balls of toilet paper on it, which looked very disgusting.

Jack froze, a dozen pairs of eyes stared at him.It's a pity that his simple mind made him not know what to do now.

Jack yelled, "Damn it!"

In front of everyone, he took the plate from Zhang Yi's hand, and quickly took two mouthfuls of food with someone else's spoon.

A feeling of nausea surged into Jack's throat instantly, he dropped the dinner plate, covered his mouth and ran to the bathroom.

And the remaining few rugby players cut their throats towards Zhang Yi, "We'll see!"

Wally looked at Zhang Yi worriedly, who knew that the latter was completely fine and chatted with the cafeteria aunt.

Looking at Zhang Yi holding a plate with twice the amount of food and a lot of meat, he couldn't figure out what this guy was thinking at all.

"Yi, you shouldn't mess with the guys from the football team. They're all beasts. They don't have any moral values. They'll come to harass you like flies every day."

"Flies? Just kill them!" Zhang Yi didn't seem to have heard what Wall-E said before.

While eating breakfast with big mouthfuls, he continued, "Our school's nutritious meals are not bad."

Seeing Zhang Yi's indifferent attitude, Wali took a deep breath, and then whispered, "Thank you, you came out for me just now, I know."

Zhang Yi just waved his hand and made a gesture of not talking while eating.

Wally smiled knowingly. Although he was still worried about Jack and those guys, Zhang Yi's confidence seemed to be transmitted to his heart at this time.

They're all men, don't be afraid!
