Strong Offense and Defense

Rees waited patiently for Nie Chuan for more than ten seconds, and finally turned sideways to fasten the seat belt for Nie Chuan.

The moment he lowered his head and leaned towards himself, Nie Chuan could clearly see his neck, which was completely different from the slenderness of women.

It was full of tension, as if it would break Nie Chuan's sight at any moment.

Nie Chuan gasped calmly, and turned his gaze back.

They drove away from the school. Nie Chuan was very nervous along the way. He really wanted to ask Rees where he was taking him.

Could it be that he went to some wilderness to directly destroy the corpses and wipe out the traces?

On the way from school to the city, the scenery was much the same. Nie Chuan soon became sleepy and fell asleep leaning against the car window.

The noon sun was a bit dazzling, and Nie Chuan pursed his lips. In a daze, it seemed that a hand reached out and knocked down the sun visor in front of him.Nie Chuan fell asleep comfortably.

Not long after sleeping, his stomach started to growl, and Reese parked the car at a fast food restaurant on the side of the road.

"Get out of the car and have something to eat."

Nie Chuan looked again, and they were on the highway!

Is this the rhythm of "Thelma & Louise"?

Nie Chuan has nowhere to escape now!

Nie Chuan had no choice but to follow Reese into the fast food restaurant on the side of the road.

When queuing up to order food, Rees lowered his head and asked, "What do you want to eat?"

Nie Chuan originally wanted to order one at random, and didn't want Reese to wait for him to choose, but he didn't expect Reese to say, "You can choose after you see clearly. After you choose, you have to finish eating."

Nie Chuan suddenly had a feeling that the other party seemed to say, "The path I chose is to walk on my knees."

Nearly 20 seconds passed, and the waiter who ordered the food was a little impatient, but Reese was still waiting patiently by the side.

"That... cheese bacon chicken burger with Coke."

He also wanted a lemon chicken nugget...

"Can you eat enough?" Reese raised his eyebrows.

"Lemon chicken nuggets." Nie Chuan suddenly felt that he had really become a child in front of Reese.

When they returned to the table with their dinner plates, Nie Chuan silently began to eat.

He took a bite of the burger, and the cheese squeezed out and remained on his cheek.

Just as Nie Chuan was about to wipe it with his hands, a napkin was pressed on his face by the person opposite.

As soon as Nie Chuan raised his eyes, he saw Reese lowering his eyes slightly and opening his mouth to bite the burger.

He could see the tip of his tongue looming between his lips, but the scene passed quickly, Reese chewing slowly on the burger, tearing open the packet of ketchup.

I don't know why, but it's obviously a very ordinary movement, but in Nie Chuan's eyes, it looks very grand.

Although the adjective "stylish" is a bit strange to use here.

After eating the hamburger and eating half of the lemon chicken nuggets, Nie Chuan was full.But when he thought of Reese's phrase "choose it and eat it", he felt a lot of pressure, so he could only eat another two yuan abruptly.

"You eat so much, be careful to spit it out in the car later."

Rees spoke coolly, and Nie Chuan's eyes widened.

So it doesn't have to be finished?

Reese got up, and Nie Chuan reluctantly followed.

When he passed by a mother who was holding a child, he saw that she was tearing apart the chocolate wrapper and putting the candy into the child's mouth, and he felt extremely sad.

It seemed like he hadn't eaten chocolate in two days, no wonder his life always felt so incomplete.

With his pocket in his pocket, Reese stopped and turned around. Looking at Nie Chuan who was about to swallow someone else's child, he raised his eyebrows slightly: "Let's go."

Due to Reese's force value, Nie Chuan could only keep up.

When they got back to the Land Rover, Rees suddenly stretched out his hand and took out a bag from the rear seat. When he opened it, there was a small packet of chocolate beans inside.

Although the bag had been opened, Nie Chuan was still very surprised: "You give me something to eat?"

"Ah."

They hit the road again.

Nie Chuan smiled openly while sucking a chocolate bean.

Reese was driving, and when he looked in the rear mirror, his eyes just passed Nie Chuan.

He slightly pulled the corner of his lips and said, "Child."

They came to a nearby city. Reese drove the car into a hospital. After parking, he took Nie Chuan to walk in the courtyard of the hospital.

Today's daylight is very good, and many patients come out for a walk.

On a bench not far away, sat a teenager listening to music.He wears a baseball cap, has a chocolate complexion, and beats, his jaw pointing.

Nie Chuan noticed that Reese was looking at him.

"His name is Steven Connor. He used to be the first-choice player of our udk basketball team and the best point guard in our basketball team."

"he is sick?"

"Well, it's cancer. He's here for chemotherapy."

"Oh..." Nie Chuan didn't know what to say for a while.Normally he should have said "I'm sorry", but that doesn't make sense.

"Callo, Ewing and Montenegro didn't know about Connor's condition," Reese said. "They just thought that Connor gave up basketball and went to another country with his parents."

"Why?" Nie Chuan didn't understand.

"Because Connor is too good and has a tacit understanding with us. Therefore, if he leaves the stadium because of cancer, then in everyone's heart, he will be the best and most perfect, and no one can replace him emotionally. It's going to be hard for Carlos to accept another point guard, no matter how good the opponent is. But if Conor is voluntarily giving up basketball, it's different. People will want to find another guy and prove to him that even without you, We can be just as good.”

"So he's here alone, and Carlo, Ewing, and Montenegro have never visited him?"

"Yes. So for me, Connor's position will eventually be replaced by someone else, but if it is destined, I hope this person is not the best and most capable, but at least he cherishes it more than everyone else Connor's place."

At that moment, Nie Chuan's heart was full.

"Carol mentioned you in his K. After Connor read it, he contacted me. He said he wanted to see you very much."

Nie Chuan took a step back, frowned and looked at Rees seriously: "But I don't think I should go to see him. What he wants to see is someone who can be trusted by his teammates, not me. I'm not like that at all Man. I'll let him down."

"He doesn't want to meet his other self. Maybe what he wants is someone to talk to him about basketball. If it were me, he wouldn't talk about basketball with me." Ristodon paused, then said, "If It doesn't matter if you don't want to go. I'll go and have a word with him, and then take you back to school."

"No... I'll go."

"You don't need to sympathize with Connor."

"He is stronger than so many people, and he doesn't need other people's sympathy."

Nie Chuan took a breath, walked towards Connor, and came in front of him.

At this time, Connor was holding the ipad in his hand, and started a basketball game, while Nie Chuan sat quietly beside him and watched the game with him for ten minutes.

When Connor turned around and saw Nie Chuan, he couldn't help being startled: "Oh, my God!"

"Sorry to scare you, I'm Nie Chuan. Reese brought me here, he said you want to meet me."

Connor's eyes were big, his teeth were set off very white by his skin color, and the way he smiled made people feel very warm.

"Oh! You are Allen, right? Hello, I'm Connor!"

Although Nie Chuan was still not used to being called by his English name, he nodded.

The two chatted quickly, and Nie Chuan couldn't keep up with Connor when he spoke quickly, especially some basketball terms became even more unfamiliar.

Nie Chuan vaguely understood Connor's dancing gestures but couldn't fully understand them until Reese, who was watching them not far away, threw a basketball over.

Connor was very excited when he touched the basketball, and performed a very beautiful and coherent crotch cross step dribble in front of Nie Chuan.

That sense of rhythm seemed to be knocking in Nie Chuan's brain.

"Look, that's it!"

Nie Chuan was infected by Connor's joy when he touched the basketball. He took the ball and followed Connor to learn his moves and practiced.

At first, Nie Chuan's movements were clumsy, but he became faster and more flexible.

Connor clapped his hands aside, and said in rhythm: "Yes! Yes! That's it! Your body will remember! When your body remembers, no one can stop you!"

Maybe it was because Connor was more friendly than Reese, or maybe the skills that Connor showed to Nie Chuan were too attractive, so Nie Chuan stayed with Connor and learned how to dribble with him for two or three hours. .Whether it's McGrady's cross-change step or Marbury's crotch-back double-change dribble, these seemingly smooth and gorgeous movements in the NBA arena, once they are decomposed by Connor and shown to Nie Chuan, they will become as if decoded. To be ordinary.

"Hey! Interesting, Ellen?" Connor asked with a smile.

"It's really interesting!" When Nie Chuan answered subconsciously, he realized that something had changed.

"You know why I like basketball?" Connor asked.

Nie Chuan shook his head.

“Because there are countless combinations here. You can do a crotch-over dribble past your opponent, and you can dribble a crotch-over-the-back pass. All defenders are different gates, and you are the one. The key to open all doors. There is nothing you can't do, only what you can't think of."

Nie Chuan saw a world in Connor's eyes that he didn't know, it was distant, gorgeous, and unpredictable.

"As you go through door after door, you feel yourself burning, seething from toes to fingertips, fingertips to hair. Nothing can hold you back, nothing can hold you back , the possibilities are endless.”

Nie Chuan stood there, motionless.

"I know, not everyone loves basketball as much as I do. But I want to tell you, Reese, Carlo or Ewing and Montenegro, they are really really great players and teammates. When you find out When the top of your head is blocked, Carlo and Montenegro will tear the light for you. When you find that you can't break through from the left and right, Reese can always open up a wider space for you. When you feel that the basket is far away from you From far away, Ewing will stand behind you and take off, take a long three-pointer, and seal your throat with a sword. I love the feeling of being with them to death."

Connor's eyes were red.

Nie Chuan's ears seemed to be filled with the roar of the audience, the sound of sneakers rubbing against the ground, and the impact of the basketball against the ground in response to the rhythm of the heart.
