Chapter 517 Time to wake up from the dream


Chapter 517: Waking up from the dream
“Ah, the sun is coming out.”

Ryder let out a low exclamation, and Levi looked over reflexively.

A chaotic and hazy orange halo is hidden like a duck egg at the intersection of the horizon. The faint light penetrates into the darkness of the night, blending into a thrilling blue, weird but magnificent, making the heart stop beating in an instant. Completely captured by this moment.

The magnificence and mystery of nature are presented in front of you quietly but noisily.

"Oh, damn." Levi cursed in a low voice.

Ryder looked away, "What's wrong?"

Levi twitched his lips, "We are back to reality. Alice's dream is over."

Ryder grinned.

Levi, "Then, this action is not appropriate now."

Ryder lowered his head following Levi's gaze, his elbows felt hot and piercing, and he quickly retracted his elbows, stood up straight, and distanced himself.

Levi laughed dumbly, "Originally, I came here just to wait for the sunrise, but now, I begin to hate that the sun rises as usual."

Ryder, "Oh, the sun will be sad."

"Ha." Levi laughed again.

The world outside the window did not get brighter immediately. The sun was hidden at the end of the horizon and quietly revealed a corner, but it did not jump out in a hurry. Before the first ray of dawn completely fell, the night still had a short stay.

"'Time flies like a hare.'" Levi said a nonsense without warning.

Ryder raised an eyebrow, "What?"

Levi shook his head slightly, "No. I once heard Dylan-Thomas reciting WH-Auden's poems. His voice was like a cello, with a low and magnetic voice."

"It's like, 'All the evening bells in town, don't let time deceive you, oh, you can't conquer time, when you have a headache or when you're worried, ambiguous life rushes by, time has its dreams, tomorrow, or today.' ”

After saying that, Levi himself was a little embarrassed and looked away from the window.

Ryder did not speak immediately, as if he was immersed in Levi's voice.

This surprised Levi. He looked back at Ryder and said, "I thought you were joking. I never knew rugby players actually read poetry."

Ryder raised his chin, "Don't think they have no soul just because they're big, just like you don't think I don't know a second language just because I'm American."

"Hahaha." Levi laughed very loudly.

Ryder's eyes were also full of smiles, "So we should cherish the sunrise. After all, it is the beginning of the day, a new beginning."

Levi nodded, "Yes, this also means that the last season is officially over."

Ryder, "There is no need to be so anxious. We still have a championship parade party. You should take a few more days to enjoy the joy. At least, let the time be longer."

Levi gently raised his chin and asked meaningfully, "So how many days exactly?"

Ryder started to count his fingers, "One, two, three, four, just four days."

"Four days?" Levi raised his eyebrows, which perfectly matched the "four soul mates" just now. Is this a coincidence?

Ryder said seriously, "Yes, just four days."

However, the slightly raised corners of her mouth betrayed her, and she quickly shifted her gaze and looked out the window again.

In this little time, the sun has broken free and climbed to the horizon. From the first ray of morning light to the sun rising completely, it seems to be just a blink of an eye. Before I have time to notice, the sun has completely fallen.

Reality is here.

Levi knew he should leave, otherwise he wouldn't know who would arrive first, the fans or the paparazzi.

Looking at Ryder again, Levi politely extended his right hand, "Talia..."

Ryder, "Ryder. Thalia Ryder." Levi, "Nice to meet you, Thalia Ryder."

Ryder, "It's a pleasure to venture down the rabbit hole with you, Mr. Mad Hatter Levi."

Levi, "Shh, it's a secret."

Ryder, "Shhh."

Xiao Nizi put her fingers on her lips and blinked at Levi.

When Levi turned to leave, his steps became brisk again, and the emptiness of a night of partying was quietly filled.

Exactly three days later, Kansas City held its official championship parade.

Don't underestimate this championship parade. The budget alone has exceeded four million US dollars——

Jointly borne by the city hall and the team, not only Kansas City, but the entire state of Missouri was excited for this championship parade after 48 years.

Moreover, nearby Nebraska, Kentucky, Tennessee and Alabama, where Levi's alma mater is located, all mobilized. Just like the Super Bowl, countless fans flocked to Kansas City with the most enthusiastic and crazy to join the party.

then.

Despite the economic downturn in Missouri, the city and state governments still showed enthusiasm and joined forces with the team to carefully plan this championship parade.

After all, the tourism revenue and job opportunities that a parade may bring are significant, and may even be an opportunity for them to reverse their predicament.

First of all, the city and the team plan a championship parade route that can cover the entire city and be controlled within an appropriate length range, while not affecting the normal operation of the urban area.

Because Kansas City is located on the border of Missouri and Kansas, the city government also received help from the state of Kansas to join the championship parade.

Secondly, after the parade route was determined, the entire city began to mobilize. According to subsequent statistics, Kansas City mobilized more than 800 police officers, 150 firefighters, and 200 municipal engineering personnel. The scale was comparable to that of other major cities in recent years. The best in the major sports leagues.

In addition to this, there are basic logistics service settings. In addition to mobile toilets, there are also different championship celebration formations from different units and different departments; there are also drinking water and simple food, etc., plus ambulances and fire trucks. , riot police and a series of logistical facilities.

Finally, the Kansas City Chiefs themselves are well prepared.

The team sent six double-decker buses, 30 private cars, 20 celebration floats and 60 motorcycles. All members of the team were mobilized to join the carnival.

According to official league statistics, the estimated number of people who arrived in Kansas City to participate in the championship parade that day was around 1.5 million——

In fact, the number of people who actually arrived at the scene has exceeded 2 million. This data also created the largest number of people in the championship parade of the four major sports leagues in North America and broke the historical record.

Comparable to the Super Bowl!
Prior to this, the record for the championship parade was held by the Los Angeles Lakers of the NBA. As a densely populated area, Los Angeles once mobilized 1.3 million people to participate in the championship parade.

And now?
Kansas City, with a permanent population of less than 500,000 people, ushered in a super-large championship parade with more than 2 million people, setting a new record.

The heat is evident.

There are two key reasons.

One, Alabama.

Second, the Asian community.

Simply put, Levi.

In previous years, the enthusiasm of the Asian community for participating in the championship parade was ultimately limited. Even if they occasionally joined in the fun, they were never the main force in the parade.

But in recent years, Asian groups have flocked to Kansas City from all over the North American continent and can be seen everywhere in the parade, becoming the main force.

Everything, all because of Levi.
