Ten minutes later, Li Xi and Xiao Er were already sitting in the carriage of Metro Line 2.
It's not very appropriate to say "sit".
Because it's the rush hour in the evening. Although it's the weekend, the subway is still full of passengers at this moment. The two rows of seats have already been filled. Li Xi and Xiao Er have made great efforts to find a corner of the carriage and hold the rail handle overhead to keep balance.
"Now it's Five twenty. "
Looking down at the time, he quickly calculated the time in his heart and felt relieved:
"a stop in three or four minutes, a total of 67 stops, should be in time!"
Li Xi on one side also showed a certain look of happiness. Although he said that the feeling of squeezing the subway was not good, and the treatment of the other members of the first team and second team of his team was comfortable and comfortable to go to the destination by the club special car, but as a substitute of the team, there was nothing to complain about and ask for.
Anyway, as long as you can get to the mountain cyber cafe on time to participate in the activities and receive the red envelope, it is enough to celebrate.
Like thinking of something, Li Xi looked at his roommate in front of him:
"sophomore, I remember you are also a native of Shanghai?"
"In terms of family background Isn't it good? "
When asked about this kind of personal privacy, Li Xi is also a little cautious.
"Yes, my mother is an associate professor in University, and my father is a business man. He is not rich, but he has enough money to make a living."
Frankly and generously, without any concealment.
Li Shiyi nodded and hesitated for a moment. Then he still couldn't help asking questions in his heart:
"you should not be short of money. How can you be so concerned about the business cooperation activities like our club and taking red envelopes
"If it's just a few hundred dollars, it's not a big deal for you, is it?"
Li Shiyi had such doubts in his mind for a long time. Moreover, since the roommate in front of him is a native of Mordo, he can go home to live. Where can he and his substitutes from other clubs squeeze into a shabby dormitory?
Hearing this, the waiter laughed:
"Hey, this is brother Li. You don't know something about it."
"In fact, it's because of the strict management in my family. Originally, my parents wanted me to finish high school, go to university, find a promising major to continue to study, and then come out with a decent job."
"But I don't like to live this kind of arranged life."
"I just want to play video games and be a professional player!"
"Then I told my parents about this idea. Oh, I was angry with them and scolded me bloody. Then I tried to persuade them. But they could not resist my decision. They said that I would like to have a career, but my financial resources would be cut off from now on. Everything depends on myself. If I can get along with it, I will let it go I will continue to do it. If I can't get along with it, I will go back to listen to their arrangements and live a life. "
"So --"
the waiter spread out his hand at Li Shiyi:
"I can only rely on myself now."
"This red envelope is a few hundred yuan. It was not enough for me to spend a week before, but now it's a big sum for me - ouch, I've figured out how to use the money. I haven't had a good meal for half a month. It's really hard to eat these coarse tea and simple meals in the club When I get the red envelope, I'll have a good meal at Haidilao tonight and reward myself
Looking at the twinkle eyes and the yearning look on his face, Li Shiyi's eyes became somewhat complicated and asked in a low voice:
"so Is it worth it? "
"Ah?" The waiter was a little stunned, and then, without thinking about it, he replied, "of course it's worth it."
Then he came back to his spirit:
"but I want to play a world in the professional E-sports circle. Now I have to pay a little price for my dream. If I can't accept this kind of thing, it's too bad?"
"That is to say, I have to suffer a little bit now, and I will become the top professional God of national costume in the future! Back to my parents, they have to be convinced
Looking at the roommate in front of him, his face was dancing, and Li Shiyi lowered his head and flashed a trace of gloom in his eyes.
This kind of wind is inspiring
Such a dream and future expectation
That year.
He did, too.
Even in the more difficult environment in those years, he and his closest friends and teammates were able to bite their teeth and persevere in hard work, and they were willing to pay everything for the goal and dream in their mind without complaining.
But now --
everything is different.Now he is not qualified or able to talk about any dream. He stays in the circle as a substitute in this alpine team club. He is numb as a walking corpse every day. What he has done is just the meager salary and the cruel and realistic life and survival.
"Speaking of it, brother Li, don't you do the same?"
Xiao Er suddenly looks at Li Xi and says this sentence.
Li Shiyi was stunned and shook his head with a bitter smile:
"I'm different from you."
"Now, I'm satisfied that I can make a living - trying to earn more money to support my sister's study. What else can I ask for?"
But the second one shook his head repeatedly:
"no, no!"
After a pause, his eyes fell on Li Xi, and the second one changed his previous Hippie face and became a little serious:
"if brother Li, you really have no dream of E-sports and no pursuit of it, what's the need to stay in such a place as Mordor? The consumption is high, the survival pressure is big, can't save any money at all, but now you still insist on staying in the club? "
"If you really want to eat and wait for death, then why do you secretly take time to play in the training room every day?"
"It's a total waste of time, isn't it?"
Word by word.
Every sentence seems to point directly at the heart of the people.
Li Shiyi was said to be tongue tied.
Yes.
If he is really disheartened, it would be better to take his sister back to his hometown. There is no need to endure hardship in the metropolis of Mordor, and there is no need to stay in the club so coldly.
Maybe it's for a better learning environment for my sister?
But ask yourself, is this really the only reason why he still stays in Mordor and in the e-sports circle?
Li Xi's heart trembled slightly at this moment.
Or
In fact, in his heart, he still has such a unwilling existence.
Not willing.
Not willing to be so mediocre.
Unwilling to struggle in the e-sports circle for so many years, but finally can only choose to leave with a loser's attitude.
I can't reconcile myself to the glorious history created by myself and several teammates. As time goes by, no one can remember it any more.
(yes --)
Li Xi took a deep breath and looked up:
(there will still be such and so unwilling, or because there is always such a thin hope in the bottom of his heart, he will stay here year by year, looking forward to the emergence of miracles.)
But
Is it useful?
The bitterness on his face became more intense. Li Shiyi shook his head and whispered with a smile:
"even if there are still pursuits and dreams, what can we do?"
"Now I'm worthy of talking about these, the so-called E-sports dream It has long been an unattainable luxury. "
The second boy wanted to persuade him again, but Li Xi had no intention to continue the topic. The subway slowed down and stopped at the platform. Li Xi looked up at the door and turned to Xiao ER and said:
"OK, don't say that."
"Here we are. Let's go."
