The e-sports industrial park where WSND is located has been built for several years. Zuo Zhengyi entered this gate on the first day he came to Shanghai.

But at that time, the EOH branch was not the current three-story villa, but in the club headquarters building, with many people and complicated relationships.Zuo Zhengyi was a young man from a small town who had never seen the world. When he first came here, he was apprehensive, especially after seeing Zheng Mao's exquisite appearance.

Zheng Mao is particularly good at socializing, he calls everyone a brother and brother, and the club owner sells him three points of face.

Zuo Zhengyi didn't know how he earned this face. Obviously, Zheng Mao was just an ordinary player, and he wasn't particularly good - if he was really good, he wouldn't have been suppressed in the youth training camp and couldn't get into it. a team.

For this matter, Zheng Mao has his own explanation.

He said that the youth training camp is the future of WSND, and someone needs to lead the team. He would rather not go to the front line and sacrifice his personal honor, but also consider the future of the club.

Zuo Zhengyi felt that he was so great, and he was a role model that he should learn from.

It took a long time to realize that Zheng Mao was essentially a hypocrite like Yue Buqun, but he only talked nicely, but in fact he was farting.

He was a good player. The first team had a stronger mid laner at the time. He couldn't compete, and he wasn't even worthy of a substitute.

Zuo Zhengyi withdrew his thoughts and walked around the park.

As night fell, the Scorpion Base Building and the SP Base Building next door were lit up, and further away was the Lion Club. They changed owners this year, and the base was also being redecorated.

The new season is about to start.

Zuo Zhengyi clenched his right hand and moved his wrist.

I have seen the scenery of the park for several years, but there is really nothing new.He took a taxi to go out, and the end point of the route on the mobile map navigation was "Sword Furnace".

This is a computer peripheral customization shop.

It was not called "Sword Furnace" before, it was a conventional name, it was called "External Setting Customization".

Later, Zuo Zhengyi, a peripheral enthusiast, came. He wanted to make a 100% customized mechanical keyboard, that is, everything on the keyboard: each axis, keycap, positioning board, keyboard shell material, keyboard appearance, etc., were all in accordance with Made with his mind, completely personalized and unique.

That's what the boss does, of course he can do it, but the price is very expensive.

At that time, Zuo Zhengyi was not yet famous, so the boss looked him up secretly, feeling that he was not like a rich second generation with money and no place to spend it, and most likely he was a kid who played with peripherals, so he kindly advised him: "Brother, make a custom There are many types of keyboards, and your requirements are too high, and this number can be achieved by making one set.”

The boss raised his hand, stretched out his five fingers, and made a gesture.

Without changing his face, Zuo Zhengyi took out his bank card and slapped it on the table. There were also some cash stacked on top of the bank card, as if he was going to spend all his wealth.

But it was not enough, he said: "The rest of the installments will be paid to you next month."

boss:"……"

I have seen enthusiasts, but I have never seen one who burned himself stupid.

"It's not necessary."

The boss was sitting on a chair, and Zuo Zhengyi was standing opposite him, with a table in between.

The store is small because most of the customers place their orders online and few come to the physical store.

The area is small and crowded, and the shelves around the walls are full of all kinds of peripherals, keyboards, mice, monitors... squeezed into a pile, but not messy, but very lively.

The boss is also like an expert, hiding in the city, with a dim light on his head, knocking on his bank card, looking at his expression that he doesn't want to accept the order.

Zuo Zhengyi felt that he looked down on him and was not very happy.

"I want the most expensive, the best." Zuo Zhengyi said, "I want to use it for competitions. It is my sword. Only the best sword in the world is worthy of me."

boss:"……"

It turned out to be a secondary illness.

Is this because I read too many martial arts novels, or is my brain poisoned by playing too many online games?

But Zuo Zhengyi insisted on doing it, and the boss had no reason not to make money, and kindly offered him interest-free installments.

Later, when the keyboard was finished, Zuo Zhengyi took it to the EPL arena to kill everyone.

The live camera has captured his keyboard. There are countless colored lights under the keycaps, which light up in the shape of a long sword when they glow, which is extremely cool.

It's hard to comment on Zuo Zhengyi's aesthetics, but he really likes it, and so do his chuunibha fans.

Later, Zuo Zhengyi became friends with the store owner, and the story of his "thousands of money buying swords" was also spread in the e-sports circle.

Zuo Zhengyi got off at the gate of "Sword Furnace".

The WeChat message rang at the same time.

Jue: "Have you had dinner yet?"

End: "Say something straight."

Jue: "?"

Jue: "Why do I have to find something to do with you?"

End: "Then I'm busy, let's talk later."

Absolutely: ":("

"..."

I don't know if it's an illusion, but Zuo Zhengyi feels that this person is a bit gay. Although making jokes about gay men is very popular now, the live broadcast circle also likes to sell corruption.

But he doesn't like it.

Zuo Zhengyi put away his mobile phone and pushed open the door of the "Sword Furnace".

The boss is eating, stuffing food into his mouth while playing games.

He is also an EOH player. He is in his 30s this year, and he is still struggling in the gold rank. point!"

Zuo Zhengyi: "..."

No, I can't take the vegetable chicken.

"Is there anything new recently?" Zuo Zhengyi pulled out a chair and sat down, his eyes scanned the shelves by the wall, "Come and give me an eye craving."

The boss knew him well: "What's wrong with you? Are you in a bad mood?"

"I'm not in a good mood." Zuo Zhengyi said, "Zheng Buqun is going to be the coach in the new season. I'm so annoyed. I also met an acquaintance today—"

"What acquaintance? A man or a woman?"

"Men, relatives." Zuo Zhengyi said vaguely, not wanting to talk about personal matters, but only talked about the troubles of the club, "I will have a bad life when Zheng Buqun comes here, either he will die or I will die."

The boss said: "It's really impossible to transfer, I want to poach so many of your team."

"What's the deal? How could I leave WSND?" Zuo Zhengyi said without thinking, "They can't sell me. I want to stay for ten years like Cheng Suinian in SP, and retire with honor."

Speaking of this, Zuo Zhengyi actually felt a little better.

It is indeed impossible for him to leave WSND, so "becoming someone like Cheng Su Nian" is one of his goals.

Cheng Sunian is the captain of the SP team.

This year in Los Angeles, it was Cheng Suinian who led SP to defeat WSND, making Zuo Zhengyi lose the championship.

But Zuo Zhengyi didn't hate him.

It is impossible for any junior who loves e-sports to hate Cheng Sunian.

Not only because of those illusory fame, qualifications, and status, but also because Cheng Suinian is an extremely self-disciplined and tenacious person, he is almost the embodiment of e-sports will.

A few days ago, Cheng Su Nian retired.

The official EPL event league and the SP club held a grand retirement ceremony for him, thanking him for his contribution to the development of domestic e-sports over the past ten years.

They called him "one of the founders of Chinese e-sports" and wrote him a long and emotional speech.

One of them says:

"Cheng Sunian is a support, but not only a support; Cheng Sunian is a player, but not only a player; he is the meritorious captain of the SP club, the banner, the soul, a representative of Chinese e-sports, and an excellent example for all players.

"He doesn't bow his head, doesn't admit defeat, doesn't give up.

"He is the e-sports spirit."

Most of the people who wrote this speech are die-hard fans of Cheng Su Nian, and they are full of praise.

But what Zuo Zhengyi cares most about is actually the phrase "Cheng Su Nian is the banner of SP".

Maybe because I had no home since I was a child, the more I lacked something, the more I longed for it.Zuo Zhengyi has unusual feelings for WSND.

It is absolutely impossible for him to leave WSND in this life.

He also wanted to say "Zuo Zhengyi is the banner of WSND", to retire ten years later and look back - this is where he grew up.

Zuo Zhengyi exhaled lightly, inexplicably coaxing himself to rest.

He sat in the crowded and narrow peripheral store, turned on his phone, found Cheng Sunian's retirement video, and watched it again.

Seeing that he was silent, the shop owner ignored him and just played the game by himself, losing one game and starting the next one.

Around nine o'clock, Zuo Zhengyi stretched his waist and finally felt a little hungry.

There is no hot food to eat when I return to the base, so I can only order takeaway.Instead of eating takeout, eat out and go back.

He was finally in a good mood, and wanted to invite someone to eat together.

Who should I date?

Zuo Zhengyi looked through the list of WeChat friends, and suddenly thought of "absolutely" on a whim.

Didn't you say that you are looking forward to meeting offline?Even if you haven't signed the club, it doesn't affect the dinner together, right?

End: "Hi, are you there?"

Jue: "You actually took the initiative to find me :)"

End: "I remember you are in Shanghai right now? Are you free? Come out for a meal."

Jue: "It seems that there is no time."

End: "? Who said they expect to see me."

End: "Delete friends, goodbye."

Jue: "I'm sorry."

Absolutely: "Address."

Zuo Zhengyi sent over the location of the hot pot restaurant opposite the "Sword Stove".

End: "Is it far? How soon can you get there?"

Jue: "It's a little far away, it's okay, I'll try to hurry up."

Zuo Zhengyi yawned. Counting the time, he guessed that the other party would be here soon. He got up and said goodbye to the boss: "I'm leaving."

The boss's game is hitting the fierce point, without raising his head: "Let's go, let's go."

Zuo Zhengyi hummed a song and came to the hot pot restaurant across the street alone.

He is also very familiar with this store. After all, he has lived in the base park for several years. For him, there is nothing new within a radius of ten miles.

Zuo Zhengyi habitually picked the deepest table against the wall, flipped through the menu and waited for "absolute".

He first ordered a few dishes he liked, and then asked on WeChat:

End: "What do you like to eat? I'll help you order."

Jue: "That..."

End: "Huh?"

Jue: "Will you be angry if I say I can't come due to something?"

End: "?"

End: "I will kill you."

Zuo Zhengyi frowned, full of annoyance.

Just as I was about to tell the waiter that there was no need to serve the food, I lost my appetite, when suddenly I saw an acquaintance walk into the door of the hot pot restaurant.

Tall, wearing a white T-shirt and peaked cap, walking with his head down and fiddling with his mobile phone.

——It turned out to be Ji Jue.

Zuo Zhengyi: "?"

He looked at Ji Jue, then at "Jue" on his phone, with a suspicious expression on his face.

Is it a coincidence?

Such a coincidence?

However, it seems like a real coincidence.Ji Jue didn't come for him. When he passed by, he was stunned for a moment, and he spoke first, surprised: "Brother, why are you here?"

Zuo Zhengyi: "..."

good question.

The situation froze, Zuo Zhengyi looked complicated.

Ji Jue, however, stood by his table and did not leave. He paused for a few seconds and said, "Since it's such a coincidence, why don't we join a table?"
