Catch My Little Traitor [Esports]

Lu Jing barely restrained her shock, and asked in a casual tone, "I haven't followed him, which team is he in now?"

"The Venezuelan team in the wild card division doesn't even have a chance to play." The jungler sighed, "I guess I was forced to retire."

Team Venezuela?

No chance to play?

Forced to retire?

Lu Jing was dumbfounded.

He hastily dealt with the little jungler with a few words, then said that he had something to do here temporarily, and by the way praised the little jungler for playing well.

After that, Lu Jing had no other thoughts, turned off the computer and rushed upstairs, holding the phone and searching for "Tang Xu".

After Tang Xu left LSG, Lu Jing blocked him, blocked his Weibo, chatted privately with the top IDs of local tyrants one by one, and begged them to change their names. Clear in life.

This is the first search for this name in three years.

As soon as I searched, countless news and discussions related to myself popped up. Some people posted posts to discuss whether "Xiaojing succeeded in revenge", and some people recounted the embarrassing stories of themselves and Tang Xu from being inseparable to turning against each other.

Lu Jing rarely looked at the part between herself and Tang Xu from the perspective of others, and she didn't want to watch it, even if it only caught her eyes occasionally, she felt a little uncomfortable.

He tried his best not to look at these too much, and sift through the news related to Tang Xu, and finally found an alias on Weibo, the alias ID was "a persistent little vest".

It seems to be Tang Xu's long-lasting fans. The account created after Tang Xu left the team, like a toolman, records every performance of Tang Xu, and there are a few people who reply to every Weibo.

It seems that Tang Xu didn't fall to the point where everyone shouted and beat him, Lu Jing was a little relieved.

Lu Jing turned to the last page, which was Tang Xu's record in MG, and looked ahead.

Lu Jing really didn't want to read this episode of the past, but when he saw Tang Xu and MG together, he felt annoyed.

But looking at it, it really made him feel wrong.

In the first half of that summer game, Tang Xu's performance was not bad.

But in the second half of the game, his data began to decline dramatically, probably averaging 7 kills and 1 death per game in the first half, and averaging 1 kill and 7 deaths per game in the second half.

In the three games of the summer finals, the statistics were even more appalling.

Lu Jing remembered very clearly that after the end of those three games, there was a big wave of rhythm.It is said that Tang Xu is an undercover agent sent by LSG to MG, and so on to crack down on match-fixing matches, and some people say that he is involved in gambling.

Of course, it's impossible to go undercover. Who would have nothing to do and sell their own players to go undercover for the summer split?

But to be honest, if Lu Jing hadn't been the party involved, he would have thought Tang Xu was playing a fake match. Tang Xu really played very badly in those few games.

Afterwards, Tang Xu also accepted relevant investigations, but in the end there was no evidence that he participated in the gambling game, and some good people repeatedly studied Tang Xu's performance in those few scenes, thinking that he didn't act, but simply performed abnormally, or that he was a dish.

In the end, the official investigation statement was released, stating that Tang Xu did not play a match-fixing match, and that his abnormal performance was due to a hand injury.

Fans of course don't buy this explanation, no, it should be said that fans were completely irritated by this explanation.

MG fans said that if you lose a game, you will say that you have a hand injury. You have not been injured in LSG for so many years?At first glance, it is acting and selling miserably, acting and standing at the same time.

LSG fans said, didn't you see Xiao Jing's eyes after the game?If Xiao Jing played the role, would he have that kind of look?It is an inevitable event for people with poor moral character to become rich.

The two sides quarreled fiercely, and finally LSG and MG fans blasted Tang Xu's Weibo together, scolding Tang Xu and scolding each other, and the scene was a mess.

Lu Jing knew all this, and he continued to look back.

After losing in the summer split, keeping Tang Xu on the team was a curse. MG sold him directly to the European League to free up salary space and bring in a Korean jungler.

At that time, Tang Xu's team was a second-tier team in the European League.

Tang Xu was the starter that season, and the other party called Tang Xu over to make him the savior, but Tang Xu's performance was still so-so.

Little Vest made a rare comment after the end of the season, wondering whether it was because of a hand injury, communication problems, or his own psychological reasons that Tang Xu's game fell far.

Lu Jing was quite concerned about the idea of ​​hand injury, because he remembered that Tang Xu had never been injured.

During that time, some veterans began to expose various problems such as tenosynovitis. Tang Xu said that he wanted to play for a few more years, so he paid extra attention to protecting his hands, waist and those.

Lu Jing looked at the old fans of Tang Xu who often commented, and said one by one that it was probably a psychological problem. From the world runner-up to the second-tier European team, the psychological gap must be obvious.

Lu Jing continued to look down.

After the one-year contract expired, Tang Xu was transferred again. This time, it was a third-tier team. This time, Tang Xu's salary was cut in half. Lu Jing read the comments, and there were only two people who followed here persistently.

Tang Xu's performance in the third-tier European team seems to be a little bit better, sometimes he can C, sometimes he can't.

But this team obviously didn't buy Tang Xu for the purpose of confusing him.

So in the second half of the year, Tang Xu played only a handful of games.

Later, it has become a single-player record for a small vest. Who will always pay attention to a professional player who can't even play.

After the summer split, Lu Jing saw that Tang Xu was used as a bargaining chip by the European team and sold to the Venezuelan team in the wild card division in exchange for a 16-year-old rookie mid laner.

The former mid-season champion and runner-up jungler in the global finals was exchanged for a rookie mid laner from an [-]th-rate team.

Lu Jing felt an indescribable feeling in her heart.

In the Venezuelan team, Tang Xu only played a few games for a short time. This time his record was not bad, but the Venezuelan team lost a lot, and then Tang Xu simply didn't play again.

It is estimated that the management found that there are thighs and can't move it. It is better to change to five local people, at least they can play GG in laughter.

Until the last one, it was news some time ago.The little vest carried the news in the corner of the page at the end of a foreign language website e-sports magazine:

The former top jungler jugX has confirmed that he will not renew his contract with the Venezuelan team after not playing for a season. He is currently in a state of retaining his player qualifications but will not play without pay. It is expected that after the end of the Spring Split, the contract will be automatically terminated when it expires. .

The little vest is equipped with two tearful expressions.

After reading these messages, Lu Jing also wanted to send these two tearful emojis.

Because the person described in Weibo is completely different from the Tang Xu that Lu Jing once knew.

Tang Xu’s 20-year-old birthday wish was “to win the global championship with Xiao Jing.” When the overall strength of the LPL was sluggish, he also led LSG to win the mid-season championship and the runner-up in the global finals, which greatly boosted the morale of the entire division. .

On Weibo, this one looks like a professional player with no talent and no passion, he just waited to die, and his situation went from bad to worse, and finally he quit the professional circle logically.

Lu Jing even felt that there was something wrong.

Tang Xu and jugX in Weibo are completely two people.

But it wasn't until he went over the wall to find the high-density game video data, and recognized Tang Xu, who was obviously one size smaller than the four strong South American men in the mosaic-like picture, and looked extraordinarily thin, that he was finally convinced that everything was true .

Lu Jing was stunned for a long time.

If Tang Xu drifted all the way and finally retired in the European League simply because he didn't play well, Lu Jing wouldn't feel that way. He betrayed LSG, and he deserved it.

But the step of leaving Venezuela is not a matter of technical level, but a complete drop in price.

It is impossible to have a real strong buy and sell in the transfer, everything has to be negotiated, in other words, going to MG, going to Europe, going to the third-tier team, until going to Venezuela, all agreed by Tang Xu himself.

Even if Tang Xu was chosen for money or something else, as long as he cared about his dignity as a professional player, he would rather retire than go to Venezuela.

As an "enemy for life", Lu Jing doesn't mind seeing Tang Xu fall into the mud, but the current situation is that Tang Xu seems to be walking into the mud step by step.

What makes a good person go to a dead end without any worries.

It was raining outside the window. It doesn't rain often in winter, but once it rains, the weather will be extremely cold.

Lu Jing suddenly felt the sadness of a hero's end.

-

Tang Xu pulled up the curtains. A person's winter rainy night is really too lonely. The curtains are in warm colors. Turning on the lights will make you feel better.

This feels very much like the past few years. I lived in a single room in the corner of the base, and I couldn’t get along with foreign teammates. They sat at two tables for dinner. They chatted and laughed, and looked at him while laughing, obviously talking about him. What.

Tang Xu didn't feel it either, because he was simply out of place, and he was fine if he didn't receive any personal attacks in person.

It's loneliness, the pale loneliness with no thoughts.

When Tang Xu joined MG, he felt that he had lost something forever, but he couldn't explain it clearly, and then wandered all the way, losing more and more things.

When he was in Venezuela, he even thought that if he really died there, it would be nothing.

He is not Lu Jing's aggressive temperament, or even the complete opposite of weakness. Since he was a child, he knew that his fate was inevitable, so he went with the situation, and the most braveness in his life seemed to be in LSG.

Bravely rushing towards the seemingly unattainable peak again and again, bravely carrying a whole team, and bravely protecting the young man behind him, even if the ending is that his career is full of holes and scrapped.

come to this point.Tang Xu thought, do I regret it?

The doorbell rang suddenly.

In the sound of the rushing rain, Tang Xu was taken aback, remembering that Lu Jing said that the property management here is very warm-hearted, it must be a heavy rain day, and I have to come to each household to take care of it.

"Here we come." Tang Xu got up, walked quickly to the door, and glanced through the cat's eyes, "You..."

The words froze.

The hand opened the door uncontrollably.

Lu Jing outside the door was holding a dripping umbrella in his hand, and his body was still wet, staring at him closely, as if something was burning in his eyes.

"Why are you here?" Tang Xu asked in a daze.

Contrary to his usual unrestrained demeanor, Lu Jing rushed through the door one step at a time. When the door closed behind him, he had already asked straightforwardly, "Why did you leave back then?"

Tang Xu was taken aback again, he knew that Lu Jing cared about this, but apart from casually mentioning it the first day they met, Lu Jing never pressed him to ask why he came here in such a hurry today in the rainy night.

What's more coincidental is that he just happened to think about the past, and his mood was not calm.

"Why did you ask this all of a sudden?" Tang Xuqiang smiled calmly, "I came here on a rainy day to ask, are you in such a hurry?"

Lu Jing ignored his words and looked straight into his eyes: "You didn't want to leave then, did you?"
