Randy walked in with a gray face, not saying anything. He just stretched out his hand.
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and obediently handed over their mobile phones. Wink couldn't help but say, "We really want to go climbing tomorrow, that's why we...."
Randy raised his hand and stopped him from speaking. He walked towards the person in the back. The person was wearing a jacket and a hat, only revealing his chin. Randy knew how unruly his eyes would be when he raised his face.
This person was Milk Tea Bro, and his Game ID was Lord Top. Generally, team members called each other by their IDs. But no one wanted to call out his ID, as their Captain's ID was Top of the Tops. Obviously, Milk Tea Bro was stealing their Captain's thunder. He was also arrogant, independent and unruly. He always played on his own and never joined the group. Many players thought that he would not be able to survive the probation period. However, Milk Tea Bro broke the Captain's record and injured the Captain's face shortly after arrival.
The Captain did not fight with him. Instead, he endured it!
This was unbelievable, just as if Hitler came back to his life and began to preach world peace!
And the Captain actually took him to a game. Generally speaking, all the members had to go through rounds of selection before joining the big family, and also needed to pass the assessment within one month to participate in the small-scale competition. However, Milk Tea Bro did a big job from the start. That was, he participated in the international competition with the Captain. And what more incredible was that the Captain provided support for him...
The Captain was actually helping a rookie?! No, no, no. The Captain was willing to assist the rookie?! For these years, there were few opportunities for the Captain to be others' support! Unless he wanted to practice his familiarity of a specific hero, who would dare to let him be the support?!
But the rookie did it!
Not only did he do it, he also succeeded in making support---the Captain completely unable to keep up with him. He also made the audience feel that support was dispensable. And he was the leader of the game ... He was the main character!
There was far too much unbelievable stuff about him to say. But it was in this match that everyone realized that some people could turn the tide by themselves.
So, was there a problem with his arrogance?
Not at all! That was because he was too good!
After he finished the game, all the team members were convinced and shouted, "Lord Top!"
He upstaged the Captain. So what? He had the strength!
"You, follow me out." Randy finished his sentence and walked out to the next room.
Milk Tea Bro, the Lord Top did not raise his head but continued to play the game on his phone. As there was still one final stage to go, he lowered his head and walked forward. The players on the side knew that he never looked where he was going when playing games. So they all supported his arms and guided him to the door of the next room.
After Lord Top left, one of the teammates couldn't help but look at his own hand and mutter to himself, "Lord Top is very thin. He doesn't have much flesh on his arms, and his arm is soft..."
The rest of the team didn't pay attention to what he said. Instead, they were all eavesdropping on the door frame.
"You think you are best, aren't you?" Randy glared at him angrily before the door closed. "You wanted to show off? Now I'm telling you, it doesn't count, and neither does what you're fighting right now!"
Hearing this, the players on the doorframe wept.
Milk Tea Bro lowered his head and was still moving his fingers. He quickly made some calculation and dialed nine. Then, he quickly lit up the green color represented by 9.
This game wasn't that difficult, but the shortest amount of time was needed to clear the double SS. Therefore, many players only got a B, or A, or a single S.
After Milk Tea Bro stopped playing, settlement showed on his phone. From E to S, they piled up one after one. A ribbon burst out in the end. Then, the double SS was displayed in front of him.
He made it.
He held the phone in his hand and finally looked up at Randy, "Captain, why are you here?"
Randy was lost for words.
So did the team members.
**
At 8:30 pm, everyone sat at a long table in the lounge area, with ten people on each side. The meal in the guest house was very special. It was packed in wooden bucket, similar to rice served with pickles, fried eggs and pieces of sausage on top.
Randy liked sausages very much, so he decided to ask for more. When he was coming to the boss, the lights of the guest house suddenly stopped and the rest area fell into darkness.
Randy said, "Screw it."
Jaquan laughed, "Randy, who are you going to screw?"
"Screw you." Randy placed the bucket on the counter and shouted, "What's the matter?"
"It's fine! The power went out all of a sudden. I'm going out to check it out. The electric wire was probably bitten by some animal. I just replaced them last month. I don't know what animal it was. It probably ground his teeth by that. I hope everything was fine..."
The owner of guest house hurried out with a flashlight. Just as he stepped out, he turned back, as if he thought of something. He took out a few candles and lighters from under the counter. "You guys light the candles first. It won't be long."
The group took the candle and lit it, then looked at each other.
Of course, it would be romantic to have candlelight dinner with your beloved. But now, the team players were all sitting face-to-face, and they had seen each other all day long. It was very awkward now.
They all had such thoughts, except the ones on the side.
Armando raised the candle and helped Janessa pick her pickles in the wooden bucket out. Then, he handed her his fried eggs. Janessa frowned and said, "No, eat it yourself."
Jaquan sat in the opposite of Arabella. He wanted to pick pickles for Arabella, but Arabella looked at the wooden bucket and frowned. "Eww, I don't want it. You guys enjoy."
Stony finished chewing the corn kernels before looking up at her, "Arabella, it's yummy."
Arabella was untouched.
She sat there, staring at Emily and Vincent who sat face to face. There wasn't much interaction between the two of them. Emily and Vincent lowered their heads and ate slowly. Occasionally, Vincent took a sip of soup, with his three bony fingers holding the bowl. Under the candlelight, his every move was indescribably pleasing to the eye. His imposing manner made Arabella suspect that he was not holding a bowl, but a high-grade wine cup.
Emily probably finished her dinner. She took out a napkin and wiped her mouth. She supported her chin with her hand and watched Vincent eat with a faint smile on her face.
Vincent was good-looking. He had thin black eyebrows, and high straight nose. The candlelight cast a shadow over his half of face. Although one could sense his indifference, he was incomparably handsome.
He was a figure born in the spotlight. He would shine even in the darkness.
Vincent looked up at her and saw that there was still some left in her wooden bucket. He asked, "Full?"
"Yeah." Emily nodded.
She left two pieces of sausage and some fried rice mixed with corn and carrots. Vincent took her wooden bucket to himself. He took a spoon and stuffed the leftover into his mouth.
Arabella was shocked at his behavior, got up and said, "Vincent, eat mine.. I haven't touched it.
