Frenzy [football]

1950, Brazil.

In the small town of PauGrande, 50 kilometers away from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

"So, these days, you're the one who sneaks into my body while I'm taking a nap and goes to work for me in the textile mill? You mean... you've been with me for a while and you can only follow me Beside? Your name is Lei Yi? From China, born in 2021, 13 years old this year? Oh! This is unbelievable! I mean, this is so cool. You are a ghost full of imagination. It is 1950 , and this is Brazil! But for the sake of you also have one leg long and one short leg, I allow you to use my body to kick the ball when I don't want to move. Remember my name, okay my name It's long, but you can call me Garrincha like my friends!"

——Garrincha, a Brazilian, was one of the greatest players in Brazil at the same time as Pele.

In 2034, China.

A car accident happened to an unfortunate boy, and passers-by screamed at the tragedy.

"Oh my God! He's bleeding so much! Someone save him!! This boy looks very young, he may be 14 years old, or even younger!! I found his student ID card! His name is Lei Yi, This year only the second grade of junior high school!"

1951, Brazil.

In the small town of PauGrande, 50 kilometers away from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

"Haven't I told you? Garrincha is the name of a small bird in Portuguese. It can fly lightly, gracefully and swiftly in the virgin forest. My friends say that I run with the ball I was like Garrincha when I was a kid! So, how can you be unhappy just because your one leg is five centimeters longer than the other? Mine is six centimeters longer than the other! I even have my left leg It’s natural to turn your right leg outwards and turn your right leg inwards. But I can also run under the sun, and no one can play football better than me!”

In 2035, China.

A hospital closest to the accident.

"You'd better find the perpetrator of the car accident and ask him to pay compensation as soon as possible. The patient's physical injuries are serious. Although this operation was successful, he still needs to undergo more than one operation. According to your family situation , It may be very difficult to afford these follow-up medical expenses. What makes us even more regretful is that the patient's head was hit hard, and we do not rule out the possibility that he will become a vegetable."

1952, Brazil.

"Oh, please, Lei Yi, don't tell me that I will lose my job if I keep skipping shifts and slacking off. The boss won't do that, he needs me to play football for the factory team! If he can't take it anymore, I will ...I'll remember to put on my shoes and stop sneaking home early to catch the last train."

——When he was a teenager, Garrincha was encouraged by his friends to try out for big teams because of his outstanding skills.But for the first time, he was turned away for not wearing shoes.The second time, he slipped home early to catch the last train.It was not until he was 19 years old that he was reluctantly dragged by passing players to Botafogo, the Brazilian first division club.

In his first full-time game, Garrincha scored a hat-trick.

Two years later, he was selected to the Brazil national team.

In his national team career, he had 60 wins, 52 draws and only one loss in 7 games.

1958, Brazil.

"Hey! You played well in the last game, Lei Yi! No one found out that I was not playing! No, no, no, Bailey didn't, Bailey didn't find out! Okay, Bailey found out, he said I It seemed that I played very seriously in the last game. I didn't play tricks on the goalkeeper. After the ball went out of the touchline, I didn't bring someone to continue to compete with me... Oh, Lei Yi, please stop talking! Please don't be like Pele Always nagging me not to drink! Don't go to women! You know if you guys hadn't been chasing me to make me do this and that, I wouldn't spend so much time playing football every day, men should be fishing and hunting. Women, of course I like football, but I was born loose, you can't ask me to change myself for it just because I like football."

——In 1958, Garrincha, who served as a right winger, and Pele, who was only 17 years old at the time, jointly won the World Cup championship trophy.

1962, Brazil.

"Lei Wing! I'm angry!! You shouldn't have taken my body when I was dating Miss Else!! You shouldn't have taken my body when I was drunk and begged my friends to Take care of me and tell them not to listen to my nonsense as soon as I drink or even let them tie me up when they see me pick up the bottle!! This is a very serious matter! Don't expect me to forgive you!"

——In 1962, during the Intellectual World Cup, Pele bid farewell to that World Cup early due to injuries.But the Brazilian also has Garrincha.In the two crucial knockout games, Garrincha contributed two goals to Brazil's 3:1 victory over England and 4:2 victory over Intellect, leading the Brazilian team's ascension to the top.At the same time, he won two World Cup Golden Boot and Golden Ball awards that year.The World Cup that year belonged to the Brazilians, and it also belonged to Garrincha.

Garrincha's left and right legs differ by six centimeters in length.This alone is enough for him to become a third-degree physical disability in medicine.But he was born with a deformity in which his left leg turned outward and his right turned inward.

But with such a pair of legs, he became the first dribbling monster in football history.

Countless strikers want to learn his almost weird passing skills.

But it will be a century, and such a person has never appeared again.

In 2036, a shabby residential area full of poverty.

The sloppy looking woman in home clothes was humming while mopping the floor.The sun shines through the blinds onto a hospital bed not far from her.

On that hospital bed that could be easily pushed, lay a young man who had fallen into a deep sleep for a year.

A year earlier, he had been involved in a car accident while running home from school.

Under the investigation and pursuit of the police, the driver who hit and ran after the accident was recovered, and the impoverished family also recovered enough compensation to pay the huge handling fee.But after the car accident, the 14-year-old boy became a vegetable.The doctor said he might wake up tomorrow, or next week, or never.

For longer-term considerations, the boy's parents decided to take him home from the hospital and not continue to pay for the hospital stay.

Moreover, in order to be able to go out to work and earn a salary for two, his parents entrusted him to a full-time housewife who took care of him during working hours, and also gave the housewife a certain amount of money every month to take care of him. cost of.

At this moment, the eyelashes of the boy who had been lying on the hospital bed for too long and hadn't woken up trembled slightly, and then opened his eyes.The unfamiliar scene in front of him made him feel a little overwhelmed for a moment.He wanted to stand up abruptly, but found...it seemed difficult.

After several attempts, he succeeded.Then... a middle-aged woman's scream sounded in this room.

This... is there?

Who is he now...?

He recalls a previous fight with an angry Garrincha after he managed to prevent him from going on a date with the sexy diva after the final match of the World Cup.Garrincha said he was angry, and this time he was really angry.

But then?

The person next to him, who made him unable to remember who it was for a while, kept talking to him, and the volume was very loud because of his excitement, which made Lei Yi feel that he had just woken up from a deep sleep. Very uncomfortable.

"Desculpe..."

Lei Yi just wanted to tell that woman, please forgive me, let me think about it calmly, but when he opened his mouth, he was speaking in Portuguese, which made him completely... froze.

"Lei Yi, what are you talking about? Auntie didn't hear clearly just now!"

"I..." This time, Lei Yi finally found his voice, he looked at the yellow-skinned and black-haired woman whom he hadn't seen for a long time, and said, "Now...how many years? "

The tone of Lei Yi's speech was a little blunt, as if a person who hadn't been exposed to his mother tongue for many years started using this language again.But the woman who was beside his hospital bed at this moment only thought it was because he hadn't spoken for a long time.

"It's 36 years now! You've been asleep for a year!" The middle-aged woman who lived in a narrow and high-rise apartment just like Lei Yi's family said this very loudly.

From the mouth of the neighbor's aunt, Lei Yi finally learned about the accidents that happened after he got into a car accident.But that made him extra confused.He even... Even his memory of the moment when he was hit by a car is already very vague.

Lei Yi, who woke up in an unfamiliar place, had a blank mind.Memories from the time I met Garrincha in Brazil in 1950 are so vivid, even... even every game he played on the football field in place of Garrincha is so clear.

Wait... Garrincha! ! ?

Lei Yi could clearly remember the last moment before he came back, it was 1962, and Garrincha had not yet passed his 29th birthday!So if all that is real, Garrincha... Even if he is still alive, he should be 104 years old! ?

"Electricity, telephone! Can you lend me your phone!"

Lei Yi's first reaction was to ask the only person he could ask for help to borrow a phone, he was so eager to call Garrincha's home.But how can a number from 75 years ago be dialed now?There was a prompt voice on the other end of the phone telling him that this number did not exist, which made Lei Yi, who had just woken up from a deep sleep, completely unable to recover, and after a daze, he suddenly asked the woman next to him: "Do you know?" Garrincha? Do you know how Garrincha is doing now?"

"What Garrincha? Lei Yi, what happened to your child?"

Seeing the indifferent and even slow attitude of the neighbor's aunt who made him pick up a little bit of memory, Lei Yi was anxious to know what happened to the Brazilian who was very special and important to him. Almost jumped up.Then he suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and in a hoarse voice he still wanted to say loudly: "Computer! Do you have a computer with Internet access here that I can lend me..."

Before he finished speaking, Lei Yi coughed violently because of his dry and hoarse throat.The woman who helped look after him quickly poured him a glass of warm water and took him to her and her husband's bedroom.

Garrincha!

Garrincha!

When he silently read this unfamiliar name in his heart, Lei Yi's fingers typing on the keyboard began to tremble uncontrollably.But in the end, he only got a bunch of words of praise and regret.

The first dribbler in football history died of liver cirrhosis caused by alcoholism at the age of 49.

When he saw this sentence, hot tears poured out uncontrollably, the boy who is actually only 14 years old finally couldn't restrain himself from crying bitterly.

Thankfully, you really did exist.

And, I also existed in your time.

But now, I am no longer the Garrincha who created countless miracles on the court with you. The deformity of my legs is the most dazzling medal worn on me.

From today onwards, I am the introverted boy who is ridiculed by people around me as having short legs and a small disability.
