Chapter 2 Teppanyaki Barbecue
Why is it said that summer is a day of hope? Fu Xiao walked listlessly on the road, and the sun made the asphalt road hot.
Every time at this time, a strange scene would appear in her mind: she was a piece of beef, being roasted over and over on the iron plate of the barbecue restaurant, sesame oil sizzling out, and a small voice said "It's best to eat it now."
But no one picked her up. The piece of meat had been smoking on the board for a long time. It was finally burnt, mushy, and black, and lifelessly declared failure on the side.
Fu Xiao didn't know how to go back and face his parents.
My mother is a flamboyant woman. She always proudly and casually mentions to her friends and colleagues what kind of academic master her daughter is, how she got the top grade in the city and got into the provincial key exams, and how she is in key classes. He was so proud that the teachers pointed at him and said, "Hey, that Fu Xiao is really a good candidate for the top prize."
She didn't even know how to face her father. He always told Xiao, don't push yourself too hard, don't be too tired, your parents want you to study hard, they just want you to live a life with more freedom and more choices, not necessarily Do you want titles such as first place or prestigious school?
"Is that so?" Fu Xiao sighed. For a moment, she wanted to rush to the Internet cafe to check the score again - it must have been a mistake, but she was not sure whether she could bear such a gap again.
After walking aimlessly for a while, Fu Xiao took out his mobile phone and typed a few words, "Mom and Dad, I want to stay outside for a while before going back. Don't worry about me." Let's make sure you are safe first.
It was at this time that she saw Zhang Xiaofei.
Her high school classmate, a little dark boy, was carrying a steel frame towards the square.
Xiao Fei happened to look up and saw her at this time: "What are you doing!"
Only then did Fu Xiao realize that he was standing in the middle of the road, blocking many pedestrians. She ran over quickly. "What are you doing? Do you want me to help you?"
"Spring Plaza is holding a game competition today. Our home-made table doesn't have enough workers, so I'm here to help." Sweat dripped from his forehead.
"No need to hold hands." When he saw Fu Xiao stretching out his hand, he said quickly, "You are not as heavy as this steel frame." Fu Xiao had to let go of his hand angrily.
"How did you go in the exam, college tyrant?" Zhang Xiaofei asked. Although his hands looked tired, his tone was surprisingly relaxed. How could there be such relaxed and happy people in the world? A feeling of resentment arose in Fu Xiao's heart.
"It's 60 points lower than the estimated score." She wanted to make her voice so brisk, but she didn't know if she succeeded.
"..." Xiao Fei's silence made Fu Xiao realize that he had failed again.
"It's okay," she said quickly. "It's okay, what about you...?"
A fact that made her very ashamed was hitting her nerves: Xiao Fei was the first classmate she met after checking her scores. If his grades were not satisfactory, she might feel a little better.
"Based on last year, I should have just passed the undergraduate level." There was a little pity and apology in Xiao Fei's tone, and he became less relaxed. It was strange, his qualifications were obviously lower than hers, Fu Xiao thought sadly, It was obviously her who should show mercy.
"Fu Xiao, listen to me." Xiao Fei seemed determined to dig himself out of the guilt. "Don't be sad, the worst is to repeat the study for another year."
"I have a sister who improved her score by 80 points after just one year of re-study. Besides, you made a mistake in the exam...and your foundation is not bad..."
Fu Xiao was a little dazed when she heard that, and her thoughts began to wander. Fu Xiao's head has been confused ever since the scores came out. Until now, she has not thought about any follow-up plan. Should she re-study or enroll in an ordinary school with peace of mind? Then work hard to take the postgraduate entrance examination?
I have never thought about it, and I dare not think about it. She used to be very arrogant, and even secretly filled in the school information column of her social networking site with A in her second year of high school; but now she has very low self-esteem and feels that she may not be able to pass the exam even if she repeats the exam ten times. A big.
"What about you, you..." "I acted normally this time." Xiao Fei resumed his brisk tone. "I wander around every day, and I don't have any big ambitions. I just come back with a diploma and inherit the family business!"
Fu Xiao shook his head and said politely: "It's all the same, big ambitions are not as good as everyone's career"
While they were talking, the two of them had already arrived at Spring Square, and the stage built with steel frames had begun to take shape. There are banners on the ground that will be affixed later. "The audition scene of the fifth national competition of King of Glory".
"Ouch~" Fu Xiao teased, "Young master from the steel factory, your family has taken on a big order!"
Xiaofei borrowed the donkey from the slope: "Is that okay?" He put down the steel frame, picked up the flyer on the table next to it and handed it to her, "Don't think about that, do you want to come and play in the evening?"
"Can you get in touch with the organizer and tell me if you can arrange my playing time between eight and nine o'clock?" Fu Xiao rolled his eyes.
"What?" Xiao Fei's eyes widened. "Do you still have a baby lock?" "Two months left"
Originally, she wanted to celebrate her eighteenth birthday on an ideal campus full of peach blossoms, but Fu Xiao once again thought with heartbreak.
"Let's do this. I'll lend you my number and mobile phone, but I'll still sign up in your name," Xiao Fei said.
"What-" Fu Xiao was still immersed in regret and had not recovered.
"What? Sign up?" Taking a closer look, Xiao Fei had already filled out a registration form.
"I didn't even say I wanted to participate -" she picked up the watch and looked carefully. The names and locations of five people had been neatly coded on it. Besides her, there were four names she had never seen before. "Who are these?" ".
There was a hint of dodge in Xiao Fei's eyes, which was keenly caught by Fu Xiao.
"Tell me! Have you already plotted against me?" Xiao Fei said hesitantly.
"I... I have two childhood friends who want me to participate in this. If I advance to the city level, I can get five 500 yuan vouchers for the food court! But I am too good... they can't find anyone else. You have to help me even though you are scolding me!”
Fu Xiao was stunned. Everyone in the class knew that she was a good king, but...
"I'm not going," she said quickly.
"Whoever wants to go, I want to go back -" She stopped talking. The thought of going home and facing the result with her family felt like a pound of cotton was stuck in her heart.
"There is no need to get any rankings. There are so many strong people gathered there, but there are also weak ones." Xiao Fei quickly added, "Just let them know that you are not bad so that the blame will not be on me."
His shrunken face really looked like an old Japanese melon, Fu Xiao thought angrily, a small old Japanese melon, a little old Japanese melon!
Seeing his aggrieved look, Fu Xiao had no choice but to agree.
"Um..." Xiao Fei smiled flatteringly, "How about you practice your skills first? After handing over this steel frame to the workers, I'll treat you to milk tea."
It's not necessary to practice, Fu Xiao thought.
Baby Lock was actually an excuse. Although she could only play on weekends when she was in class, during the summer vacation, she took her uncle's mobile phone and helped him get his account to 2300 points in the peak competition, and even got a few points from the side heroes. A small national standard. It's better not to show timidity in an audition competition like this that was randomly pulled out of the crowd.
While Fu Xiao was thinking this, he turned Zhang Xiaofei's cell phone several times in his hand, and suddenly he felt a familiar feeling: his arrogant self had kicked away his inferior self again, and regained the throne of personality. This annoyed her greatly.
After everything was ready, Xiao Fei left the venue after explaining his parents' requirements, and took Fu Xiao to a Shaxian snack shop. The cashier is a guy with long hair who looks a bit weird and unconventional.
"Where's the promised milk tea?" Fu Xiao pretended to have a seizure, "I want to drink Sweet Storm! Passion Fruit Double Cannon!"
"I've been busy all day and haven't eaten yet." Xiao Fei pointed with his chin at the clock on the wall of the snack bar that showed 3:30. "I asked them to come too. You should get to know your teammates."
< br>
As he said this, a tall boy with short hair came in through the door, followed by a thin boy with white hair and glasses, which was in obvious contrast to the dark-skinned Xiao Fei and the athletic temperament of the tall, muscular boy in front of him.
When the table was filled with steamed dumplings and hot and sour noodles, Fu Xiao already knew their names. The tall boy with a short head was named Zhang Sui, and the boy with glasses was named He Yuqi.
"We can't find any more girls," muscle brother Zhang Sui insisted as soon as he came in. "My girlfriend is enough."
Fu Xiao secretly cursed, wondering if his girlfriend knew he was calling her that behind his back. "Do you know how to play in the middle?" He Yuqi asked Fu Xiao hesitantly, showing a gentle manner.
Fu Xiao opened his mouth but didn't say anything - "She knows how to play! She's so awesome." Xiao Fei quickly supported Fu Xiao: "She beats all the best in our class!"
"That nerdy rocket class of yours, hahaha." Zhang Sui gave He Yuqi a look. This man's mouth needed a beating. Although Fu Xiao didn't say anything, he never stopped complaining in his heart.
"I... can play in the middle. Are you lacking in the middle?" Fu Xiao said.
"Well, we are both versatile, and there is another buddy who is the wild king, but my girlfriend can only support, so you can only play in the middle."
"Ah...ah?" If Fu Xiao could turn into a two-dimensional plane, she would have become an emoticon full of question marks.
"Glory of Kings" is a 5v5 tower defense game.
If there is a jungle king, it means that the jungle position is best for him. He can develop quickly, drive the rhythm, kill the enemy, and give us the opportunity to push the tower.
If Zhang Sui's girlfriend is a full-time support, then she will only play some roaming heroes, and it would be inappropriate for her to play other positions.
So now there are three options left: development lane, confrontation lane and mid lane - why did Zhang Sui say she could only play in the mid lane?
Maybe they think mid lane and support are easier, so girls can only play these two positions?
Fu Xiao didn't know how to point out his logical errors, nor how to avoid embarrassment and ask which of the two's "omnipotence" was stronger.
"Actually, I—" she said hesitantly.
"Let's do this." Zhang Sui opened the game, and the sound of Timi was already ringing in his ears. "Let's try out your mid lane in a one-on-one match. Anyway, you've signed up. If it doesn't work, let Jiajia play in the middle lane. She knows Daji and Wang Zhaojun... Just choose a Yao girl to follow the wild king."
< br>
"Oh...ok" Fu Xiao quickly picked up Xiaofei's phone and opened the game.
The Mohist trap used for dueling was a map that Fu Xiao was particularly unfamiliar with. It was said that the value of the troop line and the intensity of tower damage were different from the 5v5 map. But since it was a one-on-one challenge... Fu Xiao chose a hero who would never go wrong.
The game started, and Fu Xiao controlled Diao Chan to walk slowly towards the middle.
"I knew you were going to choose Diao Chan." Zhang Sui smiled slyly. His Shangguan Wan'er seemed to be flying with joy before she reached level four. "Girls like to play with Diao Chan."
Indeed, Fu Xiao's move made him see through.
That's outrageous, Fu Xiao thought angrily. Official competitions should be in drafting mode, where heroes can be banned.
Although the mage Diao Chan relies on the high mobility and invincibility frame of her second skill to avoid most of the mage's skills and damage, some heroes are still more difficult to deal with.
For example, Zhang Liang's ultimate move will have a long-term suppression effect. During this process, no skills can be used and there is no room for manipulation.
For example, Wan'er's pen strike combined with the high burst damage of her ultimate move can remove any crispy skin in seconds, making Diao Chan unable to escape the damage range even if she jumps in any direction. The most difficult thing to solve is that the second skill that Diao Chan relies on for survival requires local units to refresh the cooling time as a springboard, and Wan'er is completely unselectable during the ultimate move.
As soon as this hero appeared, Fu Xiao felt that he had no chance of winning.
