On the way back to Frees base, except for Yu Sui and Zhou Huo, who were still in the dark, the other fours expressions didnt look quite right.
Puppy, intentionally or unintentionally, pushed Yu Sui and Zhou Huo to sit in the front row. The other four were in the last two rows of the nanny car.
Yu Sui, who was sitting in the front row, looked back at Shi Luo but said nothing.
Zhou Huo also turned to look at Shi Luo. He wanted to ask what Shi Luo was doing, silently following them back to the Frees base. Wasnt he going to return to IAC to pack up? IAC and Frees bases were in the opposite direction.
Was he going to move in today or not? How much time was he going to waste?
Like Chen Huo and the others, Zhou Huo was also a bit fearful of Shi Luo. After thinking about it, Zhou Huo thought that if Yu Sui wasnt going to ask, he wasnt going to ask either.
In the backrow, Shi Luo, with a cold expression on his face, was lost in thought. Ji Yanhan had thrown his emotions into chaos. He had forgotten that he had to take a taxi back to IAC alone. It wasnt until the driver parked the car in front of Frees base that Shi Luo returned to his senses.
Without any rhyme or reason, he had gone into the car with them back to Frees base.
Shi Luo got out of the car and checked the time. It was already eleven in the evening.
Zhou Huo proposed, Should I have the driver take you back?
Dont! No, no! Puppy hurriedly stopped them, saying, Youve already come all the way here. Come on up and hang out.
Yes, yes, yes. Chen Huo followed up, eyes bright, Come on up to my room for a cup of tea. Come on, come.
Old Qiao reacted as well. He nodded. Oh, right. Youre here already so come on in.
Its been a long time since us four brothers have had a nice chat. Come on.
Shi Luo understood what the other three were trying to do. He said stiffly, Alright...
All four headed for Chen Huos room.
Yu Sui, who was left standing where he was, turned to Zhou Huo.
Zhou Huo was even more at a loss than Yu Sui. He asked carefully, In your team before...did the four of them get along particularly well?
Yu Sui: ...
Yu Sui, who had been inexplicably isolated, entered the base to collect the materials to be used tomorrow. On the second floor, in the room marked as Chen Huos, the four people entered and locked the door.
I regret it so much. Old Qiao clutched at his hair in vexation. What was I doing trying to scold that kind of person? I wasted all that effort just to give him a good laugh.
In any case, he wont help. We should have just dragged him to somewhere without anyone else and beat him up to vent. Chen Huo was endlessly annoyed. We shouldnt have left. We were hasty, too hasty.
Theres no medicine for remorse. Besides, it would have been useless. Puppy was helpless. What I regret is not recording it.
Chen Huo slapped his forehead. Yes!!! Why didnt anyone record it?
Who would have thought we would run into him? Puppy was helpless. I shouldnt have said so much either and had him clarify by himself. He probably wouldnt have talked and what if hed said something ambiguous?
If hed said something unclear, it would have just added trouble for Yu Sui...My god, my head hurts.
Old Qiao nodded. This was what I was afraid of. The original idea was that after the new team entered the league, a few of us would find an opportunity, whether its by imploring to his emotions, by trickery or by threatening, to have that bastard come forward and say something.
We were too carried away today and we werent able to do it well.
I dont blame you, Chen Huo consoled. Who could f*cking stay calm when faced with Ji Yanhan?
Old Qiao said warily, He wouldnt try to slander us and say that we beat him, right? We didnt even lay a hand on him.
Shi Luo whispered, We have to take precautions against him making any false accusations. We have to get our hands on that surveillance. It might not be very clear but it will prove that we didnt lay a hand on him.
Chen Huo looked at Shi Luo and tried to probe out. Have you...already reconciled with Yu Sui?
As soon as Shi Luo heard this, his face darkened. Puppy hurriedly said, When the external contradiction is greater than the internal contradiction, we have to settle the external contradiction first! Once this matter is settled, whatever he and Yu Sui want to do is up to them.
It has nothing to do with us.
Shi Luo felt troubled and he turned to look out the window.
What Im afraid of now is that I may have overreached. Old Qiao continued to clutch his hair. You think I infuriated that bastard just now?
Chen Huo said, unsure, Probably&#k2026;not.
Old Qiao clutched madly at his hair. If instead of helping I just gave more fuel for the haters&#k2026;Im going to jump out that window in apology!

When a knock sounded on the door, everyone grew quiet, feeling guilty. Behind the door, Zhou Huo said, Because of the teams promotion, there are documents that each player needs to sign. Come down and sign them.
They all looked at each other and shook their heads. They went out the door and headed downstairs. Upon seeing Yu Sui, Old Qiao, Puppy and Chen Huo avoided him out of guilt.
Yu Sui had the most things that needed signing. While he signed the documents, he surveyed everyone and said, Actually...
These peoples heart immediately flew to their throats.
Yu Sui kindly reminded them If have something bad to say about me, you can actually just say it to my face.
What the hell are you talking about? Whos saying bad things about you! The more Old Qiao wanted to conceal it, the more conspicuous he seemed. We were just talking about todays game, it has nothing to do with you.
Oh. Yu Sui nodded and organized the documents. Thats right. Because it was you four who played todays games.
Old Qiao pretended not to hear and signed his own documents.
Shi Luo gritted his teeth. Right now, he wanted nothing more than to put a knife against Ji Yanhans neck and force him to open a live broadcast to explain everything.
Most everyone felt that same. Old Qiao and Chen Huo were about to explode from holding back. The already couldnt help but open side accounts to exchange insults with the sprayers.
Only Yu Sui, showed no difference from how he usually was. He looked through the post like he was reading through a document.
Shi Luo looked at uncomprehendingly at Yu Sui. He couldnt help but say, You...
Yu Sui looked at Shi Luo. Its already getting late. Should I send you back to IAC? Should we get your luggage today?
How can you think about my luggage at a time like this?! Shi Luo looked at the other people in the meeting room. He was angry but had no place to vent it on. He got up and said, You... come out.
Yu Sui nodded, put away his cell phone and followed Shi Luo out of the meeting room.
In the hallway, Shi Luo gritted his teeth. You... Youre not angry at all?
Yu Sui shook his head. No.
Shi Luo really didnt understand. Do you really not care about what happened that year?
Of course I care. Yu Sui leaned against the wall. That year even made me vomit blood. Did you forget?
Shi Luo cried out. Then after that? Did you think youd squared all accounts and forgetten all about it?
Yu Sui looked at Shi Luo and after a moment, said, No.
When I first arrived in Germany... Yu Sui looked at the hanging lamp in the corridor and slowly said, I wasnt in a good place for a very long time.
He was a human person with a human body. Nobody was indestructible.
Yu Sui had just transferred to the European division and he watched helplessly as Puppy and Chen Huo were put up for sale one after the other. He kept thinking of Old Qiao and Shi Luo across the sea. For Yu Sui, each miserable day felt like a year. For a time, he felt like giving up on himself.
For a period of time...except for training sessions, I didnt talk. Except to contact my parents, I didnt look at any social apps. I didnt socialize, I didnt go out... Yu Sui combed through his hair, I let my hair grow long at that time, because I didnt feel like getting it cut.
I didnt want to see people, I didnt want to talk to anyone. I didnt want to make small talk.
Back then, I blocked out everything, including myself. Yu Sui whispered, I couldnt explain to myself, so I just gave up and stopped bothering. I made myself into a machine. I considered myself as just a tool for the team. I would just muddle along...
muddle along until I retire. Just finish everything.
Yu Sui focused back his attention at Shi Luo. Later I found that...I couldnt just muddle along. I could be met with retribution.
Shi Luo was dazed. What retribution? What happened to you?!
Nothing happened to me. Yu Sui stared fixedly at Shi Luo and said quietly, Something happened to you.
Shi Luo was at a loss. He tried to recall the time when Yu Sui had just gone to Europe. Yu Suis departure had hit him hard. Was there anything else that involved him later on?
Shi Luo tried his best to recall when something suddenly came to mind. He was struck speechless. That time...
Yu Sui whispered, Yes, that practice match.
At that time, that was Sacred Swords style. They would unreasonably roll over everyone. They did whatever made them happy. Things like keeping guard on the resurrection stone was pretty standard for them.
I had never practiced such a disgusting tactic before. But since I regarded myself as their tool, I didnt care anymore.
At the time, my teammates were trying to curry favor with me. Im a medic. No matter what kind of play I did, the number of heads Id get would always be the least. Thats why they always let me have the kill.
Of course, there was no excuse for it. It was me who camped at the reincarnation stone. No one pressed my keyboard for me. And back then I didnt feel guilty at all.
I was numb all the way until... Yu Sui paused and couldnt say anything else.
Yu Sui, whod kept his emotions completely steady for two whole years finally felt a bit like he couldnt control them anymore.
Until... Yu Sui felt like there was a lump in his throat, One hour after the game ended and I found out from Gu Gan that that new medic named Evil, who Id just run over, was originally named Luo.
It was Shi Luo who Yu Sui had killed 34 times at their resurrection stone.
Sure enough, I couldnt just muddle along. Yu Sui closed his eyes. I just decided to muddle along for a day and...
Retribution rained down on the person he least wanted to harm.
I didnt mean to speak for myself and you dont have to forgive me. Yu Sui said quietly, I owe you, I havent forgotten, but I just want to tell you that the real torment for me was those few months after arriving in Europe.
How Ji Yanhan got me so angry that I had to be rushed to the emergency room is no longer worth mentioning. It doesnt torment me anymore. Thats why I really dont feel anything about this little commotion hed created online now. It cant harm me anymore.
There is nothing to owe. Shi Luo frowned and whispered, I was the one who impulsively signed that five-year contract. I was the one who caused you trouble. It was you who worked hard to protect me. I knew everything.
What I couldnt accept wasnt that. I had long forgotten that matter about being repeatedly killed at the resurrection stone. It was because of...
Problem solved!
From the other end of the corridor, Zhou Huo hurriedly rushed over, I contacted the hotpot restaurant we just ate at and asked them to cooperate. They looked through the surveillance and there was a record.
But the video they themselves have of you guys talking with Ji Yanhan was shot from pretty far away and it was obstructed by the car. However, their next door neighbor had a personal surveillance camera there and theyre going to send the video record to us.
Although, the car still partially blocked the scene, this one has audio recording and it captured everything loud and clear!
Im afraid Ji Yanhan might also think about getting this surveillance and distort the contents so weve bought the surveillance content and are prepared to upload it. Id like to see him try to wash it clean this time! Zhou Huo looked at Shi Luo, his face absolutely beaming.
I dont have enough time to listen through it. You guys didnt say anything that could be detrimental to us, right? Its fine to release the video now, right?
Shi Luo was relieved, and after thinking about it, he couldnt remember anything that couldnt be made public, and said, Its okay, upload it.
