Warm Water Spirits

If Jiang Yunqi was asked to count the number of times he and Pei Zhe went out to play, which one was the most memorable and which was the most fun, Jiang Yunqi would hesitate in several places, but it is hard to say which one is the most difficult, and Munich deserves it—— The whole trip to Munich left Jiang Yunqi speechless.

At 36:[-] in the morning, Jiang Yunqi arrived at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport two hours earlier than Pei Zhe.

Looking up at the huge and eye-catching "artificial clock" in front of him for several minutes, Jiang Yunqi raised his mobile phone and recorded a ten-second video to send to the group.A second after the transmission was successful, Wenwen jumped out like a little gopher: "Little uncle!" It looked like she was squatting to catch him.

Jiang Yunqi looked at the phone and smiled, and sat down in the waiting rest area.

Not far away, several clusters of brightly colored tulip sculptures are placed in the central hall leading to each fork in the terminal building.The flow of people is scattered here, and most of them go to the corner of the emergency exit, where there are carts for duty-free shopping.

After nine o'clock, flights arrived one after another, most of them connecting at Schiphol.The coffee shop on the side was quickly overcrowded, and the sweet and mellow caramel milk and the rich aroma of hot coffee diffused in the winter morning light.

Wenwen was very dissatisfied with Jiang Yunqi's "unauthorized" going out to play this time, but after thinking about it all night, she felt that it might be a good thing for her not to go, after all, Pei Zhe was with her.

Although Aunt Song was angry, she could only seriously ask Jiang Yunqi if he had breakfast?

Jiang Yunqi answered very attentively, asked ten questions, and added words to the emoji package, which was so vivid that he almost recited all the yogurt ingredients provided on the plane to Aunt Song.

Five minutes later, Aunt Song was still dissatisfied: "It's a mess."

The little black cat sent by Jiang Yunqi immediately got down on the ground and flicked its tail listlessly.

Wenwen sent a belly laughing piggy in the next second.

So, for the next 10 minutes, the two fought each other's emoticons in the group.

During the period, Jiang Yunqi took a few seconds to forward the video to Pei Zhe, in case too many emojis were overwhelmed. By the way, he wrote: "Below the bell is me!"

If this goes on, the time will pass very well.

It is necessary for the rest of the group to set the do not disturb mode - of course there is another way: after 5 minutes, Wenwen disappears.

Jiang Yunqi had a bad feeling.

Sure enough, half a minute later, Pei Yue said, "Did Yun Qi sleep well on the plane?"

Jiang Yunqi typed with both hands: "Okay."

Pei Yue: "When will Pei Zhe arrive?"

Jiang Yunqi sent a screenshot of Pei Zhe's flight information: "45:[-]. We are following the same flight. At twelve o'clock."

Pei Yue: "That's still a while. Go get something to eat, it's already past noon when we get off the plane."

Jiang Yunqi: "Yeah."

Jiang Yunqi put down his phone and looked around, then picked up his schoolbag and walked towards the still hot coffee shop not far away.

It is difficult for the people in the situation to trace exactly when the turning point happened, and they can only make a conclusion based on the events that have already happened.

But Jiang Yunqi, who got on the plane three hours later, knew very well that when he chose to go to that coffee shop, the journey was not quite right.

——There are so many duty-free shops around, and even coffee shops are not the only one.

Jiang Yunqi saw Gray first.

MG's team uniform is not eye-catching in the crowd, but Gray is still quite eye-catching.Although he is not tall, his overall temperament is as prominent as his leading style.

With a cup of coffee in his left hand and a plate of hot waffles in his right, he walked towards Jiang Yunqi. At first, he didn't meet Jiang Yunqi's eyes. He looked at the MG players a few steps away.

It happened to be Jiang Yunqi's turn in the queue to order food. Jiang Yunqi opened his mouth and stumbled out his half-year-old English, and Gray's voice came from behind him in the next second: "Yunshen?"

Jiang Yunqi knew that Gray could speak Chinese at the World Championships in Paris.

The star teams of the three major intercontinental divisions, the captain's language is not bad.Krys, the former captain of the Korean KTT team, died in a car accident and is also fluent in Chinese. So is GONG's Era.

Jiang Yunqi turned his head.Gray smiled happily at him and motioned for him to order first.

Not far away, several other MG team members also saw Jiang Yunqi, and they were a little excited for a while.

Jiang Yunqi vaguely heard Gray say something quickly, then put down the waffle, and walked towards Jiang Yunqi with coffee.

Gray's speaking style is also very individual. Before Jiang Yunqi could find the right words to greet, Gray said: "I watched your Asian server finals in Seoul. It was very exciting. During this time, I took them to Rome for training. On the way Replay your games to pass the time."

"By the way, let me tell you a piece of news in advance, next year—oh no, this year's World Championship will be in Rome."

The speed of speech is not fast, and the expression in Chinese may not convey the meaning, but judging from the demeanor and tone of Gray's speech, the written expression is quite in line with the facts, and it is simply natural.

Jiang Yunqi stood where he was, and the knuckles holding the ear of the cup touched the slightly hot cup wall.

He stared at Gray without speaking.

Out of the corner of my eye, I could see the "artificial clock" counting down to 21.

Nine forty-three in the morning.

Jiang Yunqi processed three messages.

First of all, when they were concentrating on playing the winter competition, thinking about how to win the winter championship and being extremely happy for the winter championship, Gray had already set his sights on the World Championship.

Secondly, Gray is reviewing other major intercontinental events except the US server.

Perhaps as early as last year's Spring Championship—as early as the end of the World Championship in Paris, when all Asian servers were overjoyed to win the double championship for First and Sed, Gray was already ahead of them, and after they replayed for the World Championship in Rome of every game.

The third point, Jiang Yunqi found that the "very exciting" in Gray's mouth was just a pastime for "passing the time".

The beginning of this journey made him understand a cruel fact.

When their strength was just enough to qualify for the Intercontinental Championship, the teams on the other side of the ocean had long regarded their every step as a stepping stone to win the World Championship.

There is no place in the coffee shop.

Most of the passengers who come and go stand and look at their mobile phones to make calls, or two or three get together to talk.

Gray pointed in the direction of his team: "To our side?"

They came early and occupied a long table at the moment.Beside the long table are two uniquely designed bicycle decorations, which are as colorful as tulips.

Jiang Yunqi did not refuse.

MG's main team members came forward to say hello when they saw Jiang Yunqi, and some even called Jiang Yunqi by his Chinese name.Outside the arena, everyone looked very friendly.

Indeed, as Gray said, the Seoul final was very exciting, and most of the questions that were directed at Jiang Yunqi were asked about the Seoul final.

Gray also asked a few questions, looking inquiringly, with some meaning.

The decorated bicycle wheels were spinning randomly in the hands of an MG team member. When Jiang Yunqi spoke, they also whispered in English.

It is undeniable that Gray's first few words really hit Jiang Yunqi's heart.

Several times, Jiang Yunqi's eyes intersected with Gray's, and he could feel that Gray was testing his emotions.

Jiang Yunqi tried to make himself act lightly, even if what Gray said was the truth, they couldn't mess themselves up.

Fortunately, Gray and the others were about to board the plane, and the surroundings were a bit crowded, and they were flustered when they said goodbye to each other. It seemed that time had passed unknowingly.

As soon as MG left his seat, a tall boy sat down beside Jiang Yunqi.He was wearing a tracksuit, which made his height and legs look even better. He was lowering his head and quickly replying to messages on his phone.

The call to Liu Zhi had just been made, and when Jiang Yunqi spoke, the boy looked at him, as if it was strange that Jiang Yunqi spoke Chinese with blue eyes.

Jiang Yunqi didn't recite all of Gray's words, Jiang Yunqi only gave the general idea, and before he finished, Xue Minghuai's voice came out with a vague gnawing voice: "Tell me something else. Why do I feel that he is messing with you again. He When I see you, I will see you with the wolf—that’s what it means...he is not strong enough to completely defeat you, so he will engage in psychological warfare against you first."

Jiang Yunqi knows that Gray is cunning, but it has to be said that Gray's grasp of the World Championship is indeed worthy of vigilance.

Jiang Yunqi paused for a few seconds: "... Where's the coach?"

Liu Zhi said, "I'm cooking, so let's release it to the public." Sure enough, the sound of the stove turning off came from the background sound.

Jiang Yunqi: "...are you at the base?"

Xue Minghuai: "That's right. Boyu and Lin Xiyao are also here. Tsk. Auntie is on vacation." He probably took a bite of an apple as he spoke.

Jiang Yunqi touched the center of his eyebrows with his fingers, and said for a long time: "Okay."

The mobile phone was quickly picked up by Liu Zhi. Compared with Xue Minghuai's analysis mode which was quite reasonable in another way, Liu Zhi was much more cautious: "I felt what you said in P11. M19 is strong here. I remember one time M19 didn’t even send MG to the US server Intercontinental Finals—we’ll talk about the details when we come back from the holidays.”

Xue Minghuai leaned closer: "Captain Jiang, do you already have an idea?"

Jiang Yunqi didn't speak immediately, because he saw two acquaintances again, and slowly looked away, Jiang Yunqi said: "I have to think again. Wait until the holiday is over."

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Yunqi smiled at the visitor: "Long time no see, I pray for the doctor, Brother Mingbo."

As soon as the words fell, the tall boy who was sitting on the side with his head bowed and playing with his mobile phone couldn't believe it: "What do you call him?"

Qi Jian laughed: "This is Ming Bai's nephew. Ling Yan. Yun Qi, how are you doing?"

Jiang Yunqi nodded: "Very good." He turned his head to look at Ling Yan who looked extremely puzzled.

Fang Mingbai frowned, and sat down opposite Jiang Yunqi: "Xiao Yan, be more polite."

Ling Yan ignored Fang Mingbai, and looked at Jiang Yunqi for a few seconds: "Shouldn't you call him uncle?!"

Jiang Yunqi opened his mouth, he was at a loss for words for a moment, after a while he thought about it with Ling Yan's incomparable certainty, "It seems to be possible..."

Praying that he was overjoyed, he stopped Jiang Yunqi and explained to Ling Yan: "Yunqi and Mingbai have known each other for a long time. Yunqi has an older brother who is about the same age as Mingbai, so it's okay to call him brother."

Jiang Yunqi nodded, confirming that Pei Zhe was involved: "Yeah."

Ling Yan looked at Fang Mingbai in a blink of an eye, as if he understood something, he lowered his head and continued to send messages: "Politeness is another matter. But uncle, you are a real dog."

The crowd: "..."
