Chapter 429 Uninvited Guest


Chapter 429 Uninvited Guest

Ding dong! Ding dong!
The doorbell, urging one after another, until Li Wei opened the door——

Whoops, a gust of cold wind blew towards my face with scattered snow specks.

A man wrapped tightly in a black down jacket, quietly invisible in the night, appeared at the door. He stood at attention in a regular and solemn manner. Even in the cold wind, he did not bend his back. His upright posture was like holding a hand in his hand. The scythe is as deathly as possible.

However, what he held in his hand was not a sickle, but a toolbox. He slightly raised his chin and looked up at the tall Levi.

"You are shorter than I thought." Levi still didn't wake up, squinting his eyes slightly and making a joke with a thick nasal voice.

The black-faced Yama in front of him obviously didn't understand, "What?"

Levi chuckled lightly and waved his hand, "No, is there anything I can do to help you?"

Black-faced Yama raised the small transparent plastic toolbox in his left hand and said, "You can pee in this plastic cup."

Levi raised his chin slightly, showing an expression of realization, "Nowadays, fans are really colorful. Do you need me to sign an autograph for you first?"

Black-faced Yama:...

He took a deep breath, unzipped his down jacket, took off his gloves with his teeth, reached into his inner pocket and pulled out a neat envelope, "Mr. Levi, I am sent by the alliance and need to conduct daily surprise urine tests."

Levi was not surprised at all, "Of course, at this point in time, only this answer can explain all the madness. The first thing after winning the American League championship was a random urine test."

"Welcome to the NFL, right?"

The black-faced Yama was unmoved, staring with dead eyes, looking businesslike.

Levi's joke hit the wall again, and he looked at the other party quietly, "One question, is it still possible to conduct surprise inspections on the day after the Super Bowl?"

Obviously, this was not a serious question. Although the question was reasonable, Levi's eyes and tone were full of joking.

Black-faced Yama didn't even raise his eyelids. "Please ask the alliance for specific regulations. I am only responsible for collecting samples."

Levi spread his hands and said, "Man, relax. It's not only you but also me who start working early in the morning. There is no need for us to make things difficult for each other."

Black-faced Yama looked at Li Wei expressionlessly.

Levi lightly shrugged, stepped aside and made an invitation, "The temperature in Kansas City has cooled down, let's come in first."

Close the door and enter the house.

Levi rubbed his cheeks vigorously, regaining some consciousness.

Not surprised at all, but Levi still opened the envelope and scanned it quickly——

Sure enough, this was a notice from the alliance about a surprise urine test.

In the NFL, inspections have been very strict and continue throughout the year.

According to regulations, during the season, the league has the right to conduct random urine tests or blood tests at any time, and the window is very small, often with only five minutes' notice in advance, which is basically equivalent to a surprise inspection at the same time, even if it was accepted after last night's game. After a urine test, there was still no way to avoid the surprise inspection early this morning.

If a player refuses to cooperate or misses a check, he or she will face a suspension.

The league stipulates that in this case, a minimum of six games will be suspended, and it will be an unpaid suspension; considering that the NFL only has sixteen regular season games in a season, such a punishment can be described as very severe.

Of course, players can appeal based on the situation, and the league will handle it as appropriate. Overall, the average number of suspensions in the league over the years has been four games.

The so-called season is calculated from the preseason, and the traditional Hall of Fame game one week before the start of the preseason is not included in the scope; until the player's team is eliminated, other times are counted as the offseason. During the offseason, players still need to cooperate with the league's surprise inspections, but at this time the league needs to notify them in advance, and players do not need to be on call. Here, there are two situations.

From the end of the season to the start of training camp, which is a complete vacation, there is a twenty-four-hour window for urine testing during this period.

From the start of training camp to the start of preseason, the window period during this period is about two to three hours, divided into morning and afternoon.

In front of us is a surprise inspection.

Levi was not surprised by this.

Throughout the regular season, Levi has undergone 23 unannounced urine tests. Especially in the week after a particularly outstanding performance that affects the outcome of the game, the number of unannounced urine tests in the league will increase to a higher level.

Levi had heard before that the most outrageous thing in the league was the sudden urine test four times a week, which meant that he had to be tested almost every day between games; but now, Levi has not received such treatment for the time being——

It's only twice a week at most, but I've enjoyed such treatment more than once this season.

There is no doubt that this also proves two things.

First, Levi is truly standing under the spotlight, attracting the attention of the entire league.

Second, how outstanding Levi's performance is this season. The better the performance, the more he is questioned, and all eyes are focused on this rookie.

The surprise inspection was not unexpected; perhaps, the only unexpected thing was the time:
Six-thirty, really?
After Li Wei read the notice carefully, "I know this is your job, but I still need you to show your ID. Thank you for your cooperation."

On the side, the dark-faced Yama, who was secretly looking at Li Wei's apartment, was slightly surprised.

At this moment, Levi seems to be the number one player in competitive sports in North America. Not only the NFL, but other basketball, hockey, and baseball leagues have also heard of this super star’s name. His powerful influence is overwhelming, and he has signed countless off-field endorsements one after another. ; However, I didn't remember that the swimming pool mansion was still just a simple and plain apartment.

No matter how you look at it, he is just an ordinary first-year freshman who has just entered the league.

and.

The entire apartment is clean, tidy, simple and clear.

No alcohol, no junk food, no leaves. Even an early morning raid still reveals the daily cleanliness of the apartment.

It is obvious at a glance that Levi's attention is completely focused on football, and he has not let go to enjoy a luxurious and luxurious life.

Rare, really rare, and impressive.

As the league's official tester, he needs to visit the homes of at least thirty different players every week on average. Veterans, rookies, and occasionally fringe players in the training team are all kinds of dazzling. In one season, he can see all kinds of life. , so it is not easy to surprise him.

At this time, Black-faced Yama was not surprised when he heard Li Wei's words. He quickly looked away to hide his emotions, took out his ID from his pocket and handed it over.

Levi confirmed the ID, "In the past, I would at least notify you in advance, but why didn't I do it today?"

Black-faced Yama said solemnly, "I left a voice message for you, saying I'll arrive in five minutes. I pressed the stopwatch, and I'll knock on the door in exactly five minutes."

Levi glanced at Black-faced Yama, with a smile in his eyes. He was sleeping, so naturally he didn't hear the phone call or voice message.

So, the answer is out.

The league chose this time on purpose to catch the players off guard.

Levi can be 100% sure that this is not the first time the alliance has done this.
