Blade of Glory [Figure Skating]

Qingyue, who had lost hope in figure skating as a competitive event, began a two-year self-imposed exile.After rushing out of the Xishu National Championship, Qing Yue didn't even return to his home in the snow mountain town.At that moment, his thinking seemed to become clearer than ever.

Qing Yue withdrew all his little savings from his bank card, rushed to the airport immediately with the simple luggage around him, bought a plane ticket, and went to a place he didn't even know himself. The place……

Maybe it's because Qingyue's consistent image gives people the feeling that he is too gentle, too accommodating to each other, and it will never have anything to do with giving up.So... Even if the return to the ice rink was so utterly smashed a year later, almost everyone just speculated based on their usual understanding of Qingyue that he might just be angry, couldn't accept it for a while, and even Discouraged and frustrated, I went to hide in a place where no one else could find me.But when he calmed down and calmed down, he would still come out by himself and walk in front of everyone.

Even when Qing Yue walked off the ice rink with a cold breath all over his body, people who knew him thought... According to Qing Yue's excellent results in many World Championships, even if he messed up After this year's Xishu National Championships, at the last moment, the Xishu Ice Association will still send him to this year's World Championships.

Perhaps, people's speculation about the part of the Xishu Ice Association will be correct.Although the Ice Association cares about face, it also understands that the current Xishu ice altar can be said to be weak.Apart from Qing Yue, they really couldn't come up with a second men's singles player who could win a medal at the World Championships.

However, Qing Yue is after all a normal person with self and personal emotions.Even though he had created such brilliance in the ice arena, even if no one can match him in the current ice arena, he still couldn't accept all the things in front of him.

Therefore, just when everyone thought that Qing Yue had really suffered a big blow this time, but at this time he would find a small cafe or go to hide somewhere else, and be alone to calm down, Qing Yue completed the series of behaviors that he could hardly imagine without any hesitation.

By the time he came to his senses, he had already boarded the plane and embarked on a long journey that he never expected at the beginning...

Should it be said that history is always surprisingly similar?

20 years ago, when the ice world was in turmoil, there appeared Naxiu and Sauron, a pair of fellow disciples who surprised the whole world.An astonishing talent with the envy and envy of almost anyone who practices figure skating.He is known by the outside world as a rare genius in 50 years.Perhaps God endowed him with the talent for jumping and at the same time endowed him with an obsession with jumping.

Therefore, when Naxiu was 16 years old, he was able to master the difficult 432 consecutive jumps, and had almost the highest degree of completion in the world.But such a genius, he retired early at the age of 17, and completely disappeared from the public's sight, unable to be found by anyone.

Although the competition between Naxiu and Sauron lasted for a very short time, it still pushed the world ice circle forward for many years and created an era of quadruple jumps.

Until Sauron's retirement, the world's ice circle gradually entered a long ice age, and the number of ice fans all over the world also decreased greatly.

20 years later... a dazzling new star emerges from the traditionally weak country of figure skating, Plandon.After that, the son of the legendary figure skater Sauron and the direct descendant of Naxiu appeared again in this glorious ice and snow kingdom almost in order to awaken the enthusiasm of the ice fans again.The curse of the quadruple jump was broken by Qingyue, who had the talent not to lose to Naxiu, and had an extraordinary obsession with jumping.An era of geniuses and quadruple jumps has finally come again.

Everything is so similar to that era 20 years ago, even... even Qingyue's departure is almost the same as Naxiu's disappearance.

But Qingyue failed to turn around after winning the Olympic gold medal, which symbolized the highest honor, like Naxiu.

If we say that when Naxiu turned around, there were countless lights, applause and praise behind him.Then, when Qing Yue turned around... there were only endless sighs, regrets and ridicule behind him.

Although, he is the most amazing of the three figure skaters who started this brilliant era.

Although, he has represented Xishu in many World Championships and won many gold medals. Although he was 19 years old, he won the honor of runner-up in the Olympic Games.

Glory once shone brightly on him, but he got the ending that should not belong to him anyway.Everyone knows that's not the way it should be.And yet... it ended up happening like this.

Without Qingyue, the Xishu World Championships in March of that year failed.Jia Guo, who had been at a disadvantage in the competition with Xishu, regained his title of figure skating power once again.However, ice fans feel...why this World Championship is so boring.

The Xishu Ice Association started to contact Qingyue out of embarrassment, hoping to confirm Qingyue's situation. Maybe he can still participate in the World Championships. After the gold content is not as good as it, but he is also a heavyweight world figure skating competition. tournament.

But after contacting him, I found...neither Qing Yue's parents, manager, nor his friend Chu Xuan knew where he was.Qingyue's parents, who were the only ones who had been in contact with Qingyue recently, even said... The last time Qingyue contacted them was two months ago, the third day after the Xishu National Championships.At that time, Qing Yue only told them... that he wanted to live in a different environment for a while.

Since Qingyue's parents' phone didn't have the caller number display of the international phone, no one could find out Qingyue's location at that time through that phone call.

This news made everyone who cared about Qing Yue, and even more worried about him, very disappointed.Na Xiu opened the caller ID service for international calls for Qingyue's parents' phone.However, Qing Yue never contacted his family members by phone.

A month later, a postcard sent by Qing Yue was delivered to Qing Yue's parents' home by the postman.However, the postcard that Qing Yue bought at the location was clearly printed with the town scenery of an unknown town.On the front of the postcard, the handwriting belonging to Qing Yue jumped up, but it only said a few words that he had a good life when he came in.

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, half a year has passed.However, no one can know where Qing Yue is at the moment...

The villa house that was once set on fire by the good-for-nothing teenagers, burned to the ground and was renovated has not been visited for a long time.This matter was kept a secret for a time, and Qing Yue didn't even take the initiative to tell anyone what happened here.Therefore, when the person who hadn't been here for a long time... who was unfamiliar and familiar to this house arrived here, he could hardly imagine how the originally bright and beautiful garden house had such a huge change.

When he walked to the door of the villa where he had left many good memories, the man with black hair and tall and strong figure paused for a moment, and finally took out the key of the villa from his pocket with slight trembling, He opened the iron gate outside the villa with a somewhat unfamiliar movement, but saw that many tulips of different colors were planted in the garden that was not used too much.

While puzzled in my heart, I couldn't help but look forward to it.Expecting that the person who has not heard from him for more than half a year will be in this house at this moment...

Yes, at this time, he came to the villa area under the snow mountain town, and the person who owns the key to this villa is Alek.

He couldn't remember how long he hadn't heard Qingyue's voice.He only knew what kind of blow he had brought to Qing Yue in the end by his cowardly stepping back in that Olympic Games.It was almost an all-burning destruction...

It was precisely because Alek knew those things that he didn't have the courage to come to see Qingyue.

It was as if at the intersection of life, he chose the road on the left.And when he made a choice, the world filled the forest with another road he could have chosen for him, so that he could never go back to the past.

It's not that he doesn't love, but that when the glory is about to come, Alek chose the glory, betting everything he pursued almost from the moment he was born.He knows that medals are not the same as glory, just like the Olympic gold medal he holds in his hand.

However, just like what he said to Qing Yue five years ago.Gold medals are glory, but glory is not just gold medals.But... the world will only know they've been honored because they've won a gold medal.

Alek has never understood this better than anyone.But why... why every time he sees the Olympic gold medal in the display cabinet, he only feels bitterness in his heart, instead of the surge of excitement after winning the glory.

Until now, many people still call him synonymous with the brave on ice.But only Alek knows what kind of coward he is.He didn't even have the courage to fly to Xishu in the year after the Olympic Games, to take a look at Qingyue, whose cell phone is always turned off and undergoing a long closed training, even to say something in front of his face...

I am sorry.

He never expected that Qing Yue, who had given him such trust, could forgive him.But he still wanted to say something to Qing Yue... I'm sorry.
