[Racing] King of Speed

It took a while for Nair's voice to come from the other end of the phone, "I...I'm outside."

"Factory? Your test is not OK yet?" Jinxi asked casually.

"No...it's something else."

oh?The Wannian otaku actually went out, and it wasn't for the team.Jinxi sat up slowly in surprise, "But why do I seem to hear the sound of your engine? Where are you?"

*********

Rome—In the working P room of the Vallelunga circuit, Nair squatted on the ground and talked to the maintenance technician, frowning from time to time and thinking for a while, with a very rich expression.

When Jinxi arrived there, what he saw was such a scene. It was getting late, and it rained heavily in Rome tonight. The entire paddock was empty, and only a few sporadic P rooms were still lit.

Seeing the technician suddenly froze while he was talking, Nair was inexplicable, and when he followed his line of sight and turned around, he was startled by the person standing there who didn't know when.

Seeing Neil's blue and red expression, Jinxi couldn't help laughing, took off the big sunglasses on his face, glanced at the racing track parked beside him, "The situation doesn't seem to be very good."

Neil opened his mouth wide and stuttered "you, you" for a while without uttering a complete sentence.

Jinxi thought to himself, "Do you think I can't find you if you just perfunctory me? You said you were in Rome, and I heard the engine sound of that car on my mobile phone. Although it is less than 2.0, it is not an ordinary street race. Run away, after thinking about Rome, Vallelunga is eligible." After finishing speaking, he bent down and closed his mouth kindly for him.

Nair touched his chin, his face turned red again, "...how did you come?"

Kinsey circled the racing car three times, fumbled here and there, "I want to see what attracts you so much. Is this your team?"

"No, no..." Nair hurriedly shook his hands, "I just came to see."

"Oh?" Jin Xi obviously didn't believe it. Even if it didn't belong to Neil, it should be someone close to him. Otherwise, why would he look so anxious.

Just when Jin Xi was suspicious and wanted to break the casserole and ask the truth, one person suddenly said, "It's my team."

I saw a man in his fifties standing by the door. He wore glasses, had a gentle face and a very gentle temperament.

"Purina?" Kinsey recognized him with just one glance.

Naturally Purina also knew Kinsey, so she came over and patted him on the shoulder with a smile, "Sodenshahn, long time no see."

Purina is the team leader of a certain F3 team, and his driver was naturally Nair back then, "I have nothing to do and set up a team to play, but I didn't expect the results to be unsatisfactory. Come help."

"The technicians ate something bad in the afternoon, and several of them... fell ill, and the team will have a race tomorrow..." Neil continued softly.

Jinxi can almost understand the situation with just one glance. In addition to playing F1 or GP races, many big guys in the paddock also have other teams of their own. High, some of them are amateurs, and Purina is obviously a very ordinary one. There are no substitutes for technicians when they are sick. I guess they are also worried about funds, but generally they don’t have any side jobs. They want to maintain a team. That's not some random penny.

Purina didn't hide it, and admitted directly, "We run some charity races, and I also invest in it personally, so I can't compare with those big bosses."

"Manager, the weather forecast for tomorrow is heavy rain again..." the technician came over and said.

Purina and Neil leaned over to study the statistical charts. Unexpectedly, Neil looked back and saw Kinsey squatting in the position he had just been, staring at the racing car in front of him, thinking seriously.

Does he not leave?Nelle thought as she walked slowly to his side.

Jin Xi thought about it and said, "Autumn in Rome is very dry. As far as I know, there have been two rains in the past two days. Although it was heavy, it stopped after a while, and today is another rain I think we should gamble dry tomorrow."

Nair, who he said "we", felt a little strange, but he was frightened by his later thoughts, and even the technician couldn't believe it. Although this is a first-class driver, he still couldn't help but retort. , "If we gamble dry tuning, we're screwed if it rains."

"Then do you think you won't be finished if you adjust in the rain?" Jin Xi asked.

The technician was startled, choked and speechless.

Purina said, "It took us the whole afternoon to change to rainy ground. If we make a move, the tactics will change tomorrow."

"We still have one more night." Jin Xi was still calm.

Purina thought for a while and asked Neil, "Does Neil agree?" Purina is not Italian, and he felt that the weather forecast in Rome might be more reliable than the locals.

Neil looked at Kinsey, then at Purina, then at Kinsey, and finally nodded, "If you don't gamble, maybe... you can only lose." Their racing kits are not as good as others, and then In addition, qualifying also crashed.

So this night, the two hottest rising stars in Formula [-] fought in the P room all night for a little-known charity race. How could Neil have such a relationship with Purina? But Jin Xi, a man who enjoys fortune, is willing to stay and help for no reason. It is really unexpected to everyone. In addition, the strategies and ideas he provides are often very bloody. I don't admire the insight and courage of this young man.

As the sky gradually brightened, tactical plans were overthrown and rebuilt one by one, overturned and rebuilt again, and finally two plans A and B were drawn up. The technicians and drivers each took a rest to prepare for the next fight in the afternoon, and Jinxi After discussing with Purina, he found that Nair had fallen asleep on the table.

He has been busy day and night at the headquarters factory in Sislera for a week, and only slept for a few hours before rushing back to Vallelunga. It is already remarkable to be able to survive until now.

"Nair has changed a lot." Purina sighed suddenly.

Jin Xi raised his eyebrows, "What was he like before?"

"Also introverted," Purina recalls, "it was autistic, and Nair would never have spoken up unless someone had mentioned it to him."

Kinsey felt that Neil's character of being able to hide far away with a touch was exaggerated enough, and he couldn't imagine what the old version of him would look like.

"Before he entered my F3 team, I knew him in karting races. Nair worked hard, but he didn't dare to communicate with others. This is his psychological barrier, which can be solved by just opening his mouth. But he needs to spend more time and experience to learn and do it. He has been blamed and even excluded by the team many times because he can’t express himself clearly. I used to doubt that he has such a talent. A character that can’t let go, will it never be possible to become a first-class driver? The feeling that you can see it but you can’t do it is actually very cruel to such a smart child.” Maybe some people will be depressed because of this, and even give up on themselves .

Kinsey nodded, "But Nair is very strong, and he did it." Maybe there are still many flaws in interpersonal communication, but in terms of technical efforts, at his age, he is already top-notch.

Purina smiled, "Yes, I have watched all the games this year, he really lived up to expectations, and he did not disappoint those who had expectations of him."

After Purina finished speaking, he wanted to wake Neil up and ask him to find another place to sleep, but Kinsey stopped him, "It's okay, you can go to work, I'll watch here, he should wake up in a while."

Purina nodded, he did have too many things to do, so he left first.

Jinxi looked back at the young man beside him, with a fair face, beautiful facial features, and slender and long eyelashes falling down, he looked very childish. Jinxi looked at him, then stretched out his hand and lightly touched his head. After rubbing it lightly, the hair felt smooth and soft to the touch, so he couldn't help feeling it for a while, and after a while, he took off his clothes and covered the other party's body.

……

Nair opened his eyes again because he was woken up by the sound of the roaring engine outside. His sleeping place had been transferred to the compartment behind Room P. When he realized what he had missed, he jumped up and ran away in a hurry go out.Fortunately, everything outside seemed to be very organized. The technicians sat on chairs and watched the situation on the screen, while Kinsey stepped aside and stood in front of various real-time statistics.

Nair hurried over, "What, what's the matter?" His face was rosy from sleep, and there were two pink marks on his face.

Jin Xi glanced at him lightly, took down an earphone from the shelf beside him, smoothed his curly hair and put it on for him, "The rain has stopped."

Sure enough, the voices of various teams clamoring to change the dry tires and adjust the chassis came from the earphones. Nair went to check the ranking again. Now they are in sixth place, and they started from No.13, which is the last place .

Nair suddenly opened his eyes wide and looked at Jinxi excitedly. Jinxi felt his gaze and couldn't help but smile back, but he was caught by Nair's bright eyes for a moment. Fortunately, he quickly I came back to my senses, "Although it's not very good, but those guys are all advertisers behind them. We are like peasants carrying landlords."

In the end, Purina's team finished the race in fifth place. Even though they didn't get on the podium, they overcame various shortages of funds, personnel and time, with a small cost and gamble tactics It overwhelmed many teams with big investments and fell through the eyes of many people.

At the moment of crossing the line, Nair excitedly grabbed Jinxi's hand, narrowed his eyes with a smile, "It's really amazing."
