"Please call 13979... Well, just say 'Jiajia good morning'. Thank you, Jiajia, don't make a mistake."

Zhou Yao gets up every morning, washes up, and makes this phone call in the living room before breakfast.He also deliberately lowered his voice so that his parents could not hear him.If there is any thought in his mind, he will never say it.At his age, he already knows how to be shy and hide his thoughts tightly.

Breakfast consisted of milk, eggs, ham sausage and cakes, which were all laid out for him on the table, and he ate the milk himself.

He sometimes thinks, what did Qu Jia have for breakfast today?The stir-fried steamed stuffed buns, fritters and tofu nao sold by the small restaurant at the entrance of the Hutong?Those things are sold right away, steaming hot out of the pan, how delicious those are...

On the night they came back from "Jiejie", the waiter No. [-] in the karaoke bar drove the car for them.

Zhou Yao's uncle tried to back out of the parking space, and got scratched.I was so scared that little brother Bai ran out and said, sir, don't drive by yourself, you are so drunk, find a driver to help you drive back?

Where can I find a driver in the middle of the night?Zhou Yao's uncle just lay on his back on the back seat and fell asleep.Brother Bai sighed, and said kindly: "Forget it, I'll help you drive back, I have a driving book."

If Zhou Chuncheng was awake, he might still dislike a "two tail" sitting in the driver's seat of his precious car, and he would definitely be blown away.Brother Bai drove Zhou Yao and Zhou Chuncheng, sent them back with kindness, and said, "I'll take the bus back by myself."

Zhou Yao quickly thanked: "Thank you."

Brother Bai waved his hand and smiled at him: "Are you Jiajia's friend? Am I right? We've known each other for a long time?... He treats you so well and really knows how to protect you."

"He treats me well?" Zhou Yao avoided his eyes, his heart was actually quite cold, Qu Jia didn't pay attention to him at all, and said goodbye after a few words and left, without even the meaning of "we will contact and meet again next time" Express.

"Oh, mom, isn't that good enough?" Brother Bai smiled, "I stopped you from drinking again, played cards with you, and let you feed the bananas. He can let others feed that thing, so don't be impatient?"

Zhou Yao: "...Really?"

Brother Bai didn't say anything else, just smiled and waved his hands, and let's go.The two students are quite innocent, and they probably don't understand what it means to feed bananas, so what else can they say, let's just say everything.

……

Zhou Yao greeted Qu Jia every morning, but Qu Jia only replied once.

Qu Jia called him: [Don't go to the disco in the future, it's quite chaotic and often fights. 】

Zhou Yao called back and said: 【I went to your concert.If you don't go after school, I won't go either! 】

Then, the man fell silent again, dumbfounded and ignored him.Zhou Yao was furious, his self-esteem was frustrated, and he shouted again: [Our phone number is xxxx, can't we talk?Can you call me when you are free? 】

Zhou Yao then rushed to the school sports department to report.At that time, school had not yet started, but the school football team had already trained in advance, preparing for a game in the fall.

It is not easy to obtain student status in Beijing, and it is not easy to get a transfer number.This is not as easy as those children of machine tool factory workers entering the primary school attached to the machine tool factory. Chaoyang No. [-] Middle School is promoted to high school. The admission list of candidates from this school and other schools has been determined. Intruded from outside.

Why was he able to transfer to another school, and what were the conditions for him?

Several school leaders and admissions directors were looking through the files in the conference room at that time, picking and choosing, and generally they were not willing to accept transfer students from other places.

"This is okay, from the High School Affiliated to Harbin Normal University."

"The grades in the senior high school entrance examination are very good, the class leader, three pages of extracurricular activities... the boy's class leader can consider... Hey, this kid plays football?"

The school leaders immediately thought about it seriously, and the teaching director of the sports department also rushed over with bright eyes: the school team?How old are you?This is what our school wants, and we are working hard to win the honor of "Football Advanced Traditional School".

I can't pass the [-]th high school in the exam, but our school has to pass the [-]th high school to play football.

Football was so hot back then.Since [-], the A-League has been officially professionalized, and the football market has become popular all over China overnight, and it has taken over the pale and monotonous social life of young people lacking in entertainment.In the streets and alleys, men, women and children, there was no one who did not watch the football at that time.Campus football has also become popular. The city's education system has begun to organize various competitions and honorary competitions. The policy has been vigorously promoted and emphasized, and all schools have responded to the call to build teams... The great success of professionalization and the direction of the policy have determined the campus. The most popular sport in the country, everyone is swarming to follow suit.

Liaozu has dominated Chinese football for ten years. After professionalization, Dalian Wanda continued this domineering spirit and won consecutive championships. Everyone knows.

"This kid is from Harbin Normal University's youth team, and they are sending echelons to Liaoqing. We must have this kind of kid, and he can play directly on the field when he comes. This is very useful."

"Admit this one. It's rare for a sports student whose academic performance doesn't lag behind our school's average score. Isn't this just a free one?"

"What year is your birthday? His year is a bit embarrassing."

"I'm going to be 15 soon, so I can no longer play in the amateur group u15, he can only play in u17... But playing u17 is obviously at a disadvantage at his age, many people are semi-professional, and some are not students but also participate in inter-school competitions There are also those who have changed their age, they are actually 18 or 19 and still on the court.”

"This kid hasn't changed his age? If he changed his age earlier, he would be able to play U15. Unfortunately, it's too late now."

"..."

For several years at that time, all the children who lived in other places in special years were thinking about "going back to the city" and desperately rushed to big cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Shenzhen. How could so many children come back smoothly and reunite with their families?Zhou Yao's parents have no background either. After all, they are ordinary intellectuals with limited connections.

And his parents would never have imagined that in the end, because of such factors, the times created opportunities for Zhou Yao, and his student status files overwhelmed two other equally outstanding foreign students. At the end of the day, he Gasser entered Chaoyang No. [-] Middle School.

His high school years must have been difficult, and he did not dare to let down the leaders who admitted him. The school recruited him and counted on him to play games.

Zhou Yao carried his ball bag, clothes, shoes and socks, and met the school team at the school playground to report to the coaches and teammates.The school team building of the No. [-] Middle School looks quite awesome. Yishui'er is tall and long-legged, and has a strong figure. In the hot summer weather, all of them look like black charcoal...

Zhou Yao started training with the team.A group of people have been wandering for most of the summer vacation, eating, drinking and having fun, so they haven't had much physical fitness and are lazy. They just resumed training. This is a pain in body and mind!Desperate to die!

"Raise this fat body!" Their coach kept hurting them, and carried out frustration-style education, "Look at the flesh protruding from your back, it's so bumpy...why are you sticking out when you run?...Zhou Yao, say you Well, there is a layer of fat on the stomach!"

Zhou Yao was running, and was aroused by the training, subconsciously lowered his head and touched his lower abdomen, how could I have a layer of fat——

It's only 3000 meters, and a group of people run stupidly, paralyzed on the finish line.A teammate with protruding hair, named Pan Fei, bent over and gasped wildly, and laughed at Zhou Yao coldly: "So you can't do it either?"

"You do what you want." Zhou Yao panted and sat on the cinder-paved runway, lolling his tongue.

"Look at you," the coach kicked them up one by one, "if this is a twelve-minute physical fitness test, half of you will fail!"

"Coach, that's someone who plays A-A, and it only takes twelve minutes to run." Pan Fei smiled wryly.

"I strictly demand you!" The coach sneered.

"Your name is Feifei, the coach thought you could fly." Zhou Yao smiled miserably, and then was kicked by the coach, causing them to roll with hands and feet...

The coach showed Zhou Yao a stopwatch result: 3000 meters, you ran for twelve and a half minutes in a daze!

"It's like a tortoise crawling. You climbed to the bottom of the team, and behind you there is another player who just returned from an ankle injury and also crawled back." The coach looked at him and said.

Zhou Yao lowered his sweaty eyelids, nodded, and said, "I'll practice."

Coach: "Next, practice by yourself!"

Zhou Yao: "Yes, I see."

He himself knows that his physical fitness is particularly bad, and he has inherited the fine tradition of a group of "skilled" players. Regardless of technology, he has always been poor in physical fitness.So he often loses his energy in the second half and needs to be substituted, or he just suffers from leg cramps.

Afterwards, there was special training, 3x25 meters back and forth running, four consecutive runs, and then there were three-on-three physical confrontations.

The team members all came to the playground standing up, and in the end they all lay down on the playground, unable to get up.No one came to carry them, and they crawled back after breathing enough and resting, and came back the next day to continue.

They started training after 04:30 in the afternoon, and they disbanded at [-]:[-]. They watched the sunset slowly sinking into the treetops beside the court while running. This time period was relatively cool.Zhou Yao lay down on the court for a long time, sat up when it was dark, walked slowly back to the sidelines, and picked up his equipment.

Several teammates touched his head and high-fived him, and greeted him lightly, as if they knew each other.

"Every time you touch me, your face is watered." Zhou Yao's hair was seeping water constantly, and his eyes were dull.

"You can still drip water," Pan Fei said, "I'm already dehydrated, and I've dried up in the sun."

"Then who, Zhou Yao, you, how long have you been on vacation and haven't practiced?" Liu Chunyu said to him, "There is no time difference between Harbin and Beijing, right? You seem to have a 12-hour time difference. You haven't turned it upside down, are you still dizzy?"

This simple-looking, up-and-down kid has a bit of a tongue when he speaks, and the punctuation position of his sentences is always wrong.

"I can't breathe in my chest, it's very stuffy." Zhou Yao said with his head down.

"There is a temperature difference between the two places." Pan Fei said, "He hasn't reversed the temperature difference yet!"

"That's right." Liu Chunyu said, "It's not summer over there, is it? Has it melted for you?"

Zhou Yao had nothing to say when he was being ridiculed, he was so cowardly, let's practice hard.

His eyelashes were covered with sweat, he was really tired, and he was anxious to get angry, who would want to lose face in front of outsiders...

Zhou Yao was at a disadvantage due to his age, and his physical condition was weaker.He is considered a member of the amateur school team, but not only did he not change his age from older to younger, he also started school earlier, and he was younger than his classmates in the same grade.

When he was in preschool, he was smarter and precocious than others, so he entered school early as a matter of course, thinking it was an honor to show off.According to his birthday, he was born after September 9 of the monkey year, but one year earlier, so he went to school with many children who belong to the sheep.The result is that he is younger than everyone else.

He is also more than half a year younger than Qu Jia.His birthday is in October, and Qu Jia's birthday is in February.

Being in the team is not an advantage but a disadvantage.All the boys on the team are tall and fierce.In a three-on-three confrontation, Liu Chunyu slammed him across the body and knocked him flying!Liu Chunyu was taken aback for a moment, oh, and made an apologetic gesture: no, it wasn't intentional.

Immediately after half a minute, Pan Fei knocked Zhou Yao out again when he was fighting on the sideline, and bumped him directly from the inside of the sideline to ten meters away from the sideline.If there was a billboard in a formal venue, he would have smashed the billboard.Pan Fei made a puzzled and surprised expression, eh...

Zhou Yao changed out the shin guards and sneakers, pulled on the slippers with his bare feet, and carried his golf bag. He felt that the golf bag was heavy to death, and he couldn't carry it, which was annoying.

The playground of one of them had a school gate and a wall on the front, and it looked quite sturdy. On the back of the playground, there was a section of fence made of barbed wire, and there was a section of the fence that could be drilled in.That is a side path, and the students nearby all know to take a shortcut through the gap in the fence, and they don't have to be checked by the students on duty at the school gate.

So Zhou Yao also took a shortcut, he was so tired that he almost vomited.He bent down to get through the barbed wire, and got caught, struggling to pull himself out.

There was a sound in my ear, the "squeak" sound of the bicycle holster.He looked up again, and there were no cars or people around.The sun is setting and the evening breeze is gentle.

Behind the playground is an electric pole, lonely.Street lamps illuminate this section of sparsely populated dirt road.

Zhou Yao lowered his head and walked away, then suddenly raised his head, and the figure on a bicycle swayed behind a tree far away, and walked away.

"..." Zhou Yao was stunned, stopped, and squinted his eyes.

In fact, he has [-] degrees of myopia and astigmatism.He did not wear contact lenses in training today, but he needs to wear contact lenses for the official competition.

He squinted at three hundred degrees and was short-sighted, only seeing a pair of long legs pedaling a bicycle and very thin black jeans.

He didn't see the face clearly, but he knew those two legs.

Zhou Yao walked slowly to the electric pole, and the street lamp shone a bright light for him.On the ground, in a warm yellow circle illuminated by street lamps, there are two cigarette butts left over from smoking.

……

For one week in a row, the physical fitness, the teammates went to the school to report every afternoon full of vigor and vigor, and in the hot and humid summer evening, they hobbled home with their ball bags...

Zhou Yao quickly tanned within a few days, and the back of his neck turned red.

His mother noticed it, and came over to touch his neck and shoulders: "Is it very tired? ... We don't have to play too hard."

"Training is a matter of training. If you can train, follow it. If you can't, just stop. It's okay if you don't practice." His mother said.

"How can I just rest? I still have to play, I can't be too embarrassing." Zhou Yao said.

"Just try your best, I'm afraid you're too tired and too hard, and my heart aches when I see it..." Yu Jingzhi said, "Look at your elbow, how did you do it, knock it?"

"Fall, it's normal." There was a red, swollen scratch on the outside of Zhou Yao's elbow.

"You said you didn't continue to learn piano and vocal music well at the beginning? Boys can play the violin." Yu Jingzhi sighed, "Your mother can invite you to learn any musical instrument or any piano you want to learn." You are not interested in being taught by the best teacher in your major...you just want to play football."

"Ah—" Zhou Yao slumped directly on the sofa, and the big bug rolled over, "Mom, it's almost time for you, you are Xianglin's sister-in-law!"

"Yes, I'm Mrs. Xianglin." Yu Jingzhi looked at her son and smiled, "Oh, he looks so good-looking. It's great to learn vocal music. Isn't it tiring to play football? Wouldn't it hurt you?"

"Football is our men's sport!" Zhou Yao said loudly, "We men, pure!"

"Oh, yes, I really appreciate this attitude." Comrade Da Zhou, who just came back from work and went into the house to change shoes, continued, "When I was young, in Heilongjiang, I also played every day. At that time, we had a cement court, a basketball hoop I don’t even have a basket, just hang an iron ring, and we play basketball every day among our colleagues and comrades in arms... Yaoyao’s sportsmanship is up to me.”

"Alright, you two." Zhou Yao's mother waved.

Zhou Yao was having fun on the sofa, lying on his stomach like a big meat bug, rolling around a few times.

He couldn't even get out of bed in the morning, his joints were sore, he struggled to get up for 15 minutes, and finally got up to wash and eat breakfast.Then I looked at my watch, it was almost noon.

He almost forgot to call Xiao Jiajia, so he dialed again: "Call 13979, Jiajia, good morning, I'm so tired from training these days that I'm almost crying... delete the following sentence, delete it, don't want it, Good morning, thank you, thank you."

But the paging lady typed very quickly, so she didn't delete the last half of the sentence for him, and sent a message together: [Jiajia good morning.I was so exhausted from training these days that I was so tired that I cried. 】

……

Zhou Yao consciously practiced extra every evening, and k with himself.The big teams were all disbanded, and he ran laps on the playground under the setting sun alone.

The playground of Chaoyang No. 400 Middle School is very standard, completely different from the broken ground at the primary school attached to the machine tool factory.Now schools in Beijing are getting richer and richer, and they can get sponsors from entrepreneurs to build fully formal basketball courts, football fields and [-]-meter running tracks.

On the runway is his shadow, elongated and shortened by the sun, and then slowly elongated again.

He occasionally looked in the direction of the wire fence behind the playground, and there seemed to be a shadow swaying under the electric pole.

Every time he went out after training, no one could be found, and all he was left with was the warm cigarette butts on the ground.

Two days before the start of school, the last summer training camp, Zhou Yao ran into an acquaintance on the track of the big playground.

On the track on the other side of the playground, the track and field team of Chaoyang No. [-] Middle School is training, and it is estimated that they will also participate in municipal competitions in autumn.Zhou Yuan saw the tall man in vest and shorts on the runway from afar.

"Alas! You!!" Zhou Yao shouted, with excitement and joy on his face.

The tall man turned his head, stared at him, and was stunned for three seconds: "Damn!...Zhou Yao!!!"

The two of them were "fucking shit", shouting "When did you come out, you little idiot", pointing at each other and shouting several times.Under the harsh western sun, the eye sockets were so sore that they couldn't bear the warm sun.

Who is that person?

That is Tang Zheng.

Zhou Yao gave Tang Zheng a clap from the air, and Tang Zheng gave him a thumbs up in return: "Zhou Yao, you are awesome!"

Two days ago, he had heard his teammates mention Tang Zheng, Uncle Tang, so he was mentally prepared.The physical fitness coach of the football team occasionally asks the track and field team to help them talk about how to train their physical fitness, short-distance sprints, and endurance long-distance running, so everyone knows Tang Zheng, and this is a beast of their Chaoyang No. [-] Middle School track and field team.

Unable to speak from a distance, Zhou Yao turned his head reluctantly, and was called over by the coach again.

After a while, a hurricane suddenly blew behind me!A muscular arm strangled him and gave him a half-body hug.

Tang Zheng ran over at the speed of a [-]-meter sprint, pressed him and whispered: "I just want to tell you that we usually play in the game hall at the corner of Dongdaqiao intersection, which is the billiards shop on the left. There is a video hall on the right, the two stores are next to each other, you will find us as soon as you look for it."

"Success." Zhou Yao nodded.

Tang Zheng smiled again: "Jia is here too, he is usually there at night, come here."

"..." Zhou Yao was very grateful, and fisted with both hands, "Okay, I understand. Thank you."

Tang Zheng squinted his eyes, then quickly blinked again, with that kind of expression on his face, did he still need to say "thank you" to us?What else to say, let's say everything...

In this evening's training, Zhou Yao was particularly energetic and his feet were very smooth.

And today is mainly tactical coordination drills, three-on-three small-scale tactical confrontation, the coach dismantled the team at will and regrouped to see the effect of the coordination.Zhou Yao is the protagonist.

He doesn't run around on the field, he can organize, he can pass the ball.

When playing two-on-two or three-on-three, he helped his teammates pass the opponent's defense with a single pass.The boy Pan Fei didn't react the first time, and he didn't expect Zhou Yao to pass the ball in that route. He was slow, and the coach scolded him, "Where are you looking when the ball passes by!"

Pan Fei glanced at Zhou Yao, and realized when he came again for the second time, he went straight to the route, the ball arrived, and the shot scored.

Then the opponent's defense directly brought Zhou Yao down, and he couldn't prevent him from passing the ball if he didn't put him down.

Even in the training session, the coach whistled a free kick.

"Feifei, I'll kick it." Zhou Yao didn't give in, and asked the ball to his feet, turned it around, and straightened it.

He didn't run up, looked up at the goalkeeper's position of their school team, kicked up, "cracked", the inner instep made a small arc, very fast, "swish", drilled the corner of the upper left corner of the door frame, and the ball scored up.

"Oh, yes..." several teammates whispered.

After a few rounds, there was another free kick opportunity, and Zhou Yao was still tripped by the violation.He's not going to give in, just today.Straighten the ball again, glance at it, change the angle of the arc, rub the upper right corner...the ball goes in again.

Later, when Pan Fei was fouled by an intruder, he directly gave the ball to Zhou Yao: "You make another penalty! I'll watch you make the penalty!"

If you are fined again, can you still enter?Their school team's goalkeeper's expression was not right, obviously tense, and he put his foot on the ball and stopped for a few seconds, and then retreated. This time he ran up and kicked hard!

The goalkeeper was stunned, the ball was powerful and had a strange arc, and it was difficult to tell whether it was turning left or right.By the time it was judged, it was already too late, and it spun into the net with a "bang".

The goalkeeper looked frustrated and stood still.The coach stared at Zhou Yao, and several teammates also applauded, it's amazing.

……

When the team was about to disband that day, the coach came over and asked Zhou Yao to practice free kicks. It depended on him kicking all angles in the midfield, including the left and right corner kicks.

The other teammates didn't leave, and sat on the sidelines from a distance to watch how he played.

"It's amazing, and the footwork is brilliant." Liu Chunyu was so surprised that his tongue became sharp.

"Let me just say, anyway, I also claim to be in the Harbin Normal University team, and it won't be too bad." Pan Fei stroked Liu's melon-covered hair curtain.

"He's in poor health, damn it, can't help bumping into it." Liu Chunyu said.

"Robert Baggio's physical fitness is also poor, and he runs slowly. This kind of person is a unique move! Just point at this kick, and he can go straight in." Pan Fei commented with his arms crossed.

Their goalkeeper was scored eight out of ten free kicks by Zhou Yao that day.Moreover, there was a "dummy wall" in front of the penalty area, which still didn't block the arc.

It's rare for the coach to boast: "The passing and footwork are good, and it's good to polish it."

"Don't run laps after you're done, and don't practice too hard at once, as it's easy to get injured." The coach said with concern, "Muscles are more active and prone to cramps. Go back and apply hot water and soak your feet."

"Oh, I understand." Zhou Yao grinned.

He breathed a sigh of relief from the bottom of his heart, walked slowly back to the sidelines, gave his teammates high-fives one by one, and then hugged their goalkeeper's neck laughingly and consolingly, don't kick your own goalkeeper into enemies.

Then he slowly packed his sneakers and bag, deliberately procrastinating, and lay down next to the bench for a few minutes.

When lying down, he was very careful and quietly aimed at the place outside the barbed wire.

Then, he turned sideways slowly, counted 1, 2, 3 in his heart, suddenly turned around, and sprinted for [-] meters!

He rushed out, got through the gap in the fence, there were people sprinting outside, running away, suddenly turned and disappeared, and plunged into the small alley of the residential building.

I—by—

Zhou Yao made a sudden stop and ran at different speeds. He turned two corners, his calf twisted suddenly, and he had a severe cramp. He was still tired from training.

That figure turned and disappeared in the distance, but it didn't show his face.

Zhou Yao was furious, annoyed and anxious, pointing in that direction and shouting: "Why are you running? I saw you!!

"Be kind, don't peek at me every day, you love to watch me so much, come out, you look, look, look openly!!"
