Chapter 718 Never Walk Alone
A friend in need is a friend indeed, especially in competitive sports.
When they win, all fans and media are singing praises. Everything goes smoothly, and the team seems to be standing on the top of Mount Everest.
However, in times of failure and difficulties, those who are still willing to believe in the team and still stand unswervingly behind the team are the real fans.
Annie doesn't want to be a "victory fan."
Annie likes the Kansas City Chiefs and likes Levi.
People like football, and they often like quarterbacks, or positions such as defensive ends, wide receivers, and linebackers. The diligent and conscientious running back is always overlooked, underestimated, and ignored.
But Anne just likes Levi.
The fundamental reason is that she likes the fighting spirit and hard work in Levi.
It's not that you go all out because you believe in victory, but you go all out to win because you go all out.
It was always said that Anne was fighting a losing battle.
Anne even heard her mother's friend comfort her, "Just do your best, there is no need to feel guilty. In the future, if you have another child, just start from scratch."
Her end has been doomed. She seems to be a doll that can be replaced and forgotten at any time and completely erased from existence. She has no meaning, no value and no trace.
But she just had a stubbornness. She didn't want to cry, she didn't want to be frustrated, and she didn't want to give up.
She wanted to fight hard, not because she could change the outcome, but because she knew the outcome would be like this but didn't want to just surrender.
She is a human being, with a soul, thoughts, emotions, joys and sorrows.
She didn't want to be erased so casually.
Therefore, she likes Levi. Even if the outcome is doomed, she will go all out.
Therefore, she must come today to cheer for Levi in person. She needs Levi to know that not all the world has turned its back on him. She needs Levi to know that he is not walking alone in the darkness.
Therefore, she needs to make her voice heard and seen by others. The ending is terrible if it is spoiled, but it does not mean that the process cannot be exciting.
It has always been Levi who has used his performance on the court to convey this strength to her; now it is her turn to convey this strength to Levi with her actual actions.
Today, the Kansas City Chiefs will take the team bus to the airport and then arrive in Seattle to prepare for this crucial game.
It's a pity that Anne can't cheer for Levi at Arrowhead Stadium; but at least, she can come to see Levi off and tell him personally.
When Annie told her the plan, Felix agreed without hesitation and started planning proactively, even helping her convince her mother. After promising a lot of things and promising to be obedient in the future, they showed up at the training Base entrance.
Surprisingly, there are more than one or two people with the same idea.
Bustling and crowded, the surging crowds spread out along the entrance passage of the training base, like the Red Sea waiting for Moses.
Three hundred people? Five hundred people?
No, far more than that.
Kansas City, which has gone through ups and downs and has been tested, is united as never before, facing all challenges positively and sunnyly. They know that the team is facing a severe impact, and they also know that the overwhelming negative voices on social networks are really difficult to digest, so they show up. Here it is.
Although it is very, very difficult, as long as they unite and face it together, there is no need to be afraid no matter how big the storm is.
The vast sea of red was fully laid out, no different from a home match day, there were even more than one or two thousand people, and the scene was spectacular.
Then.
Levi showed up.
In an instant, Annie's heart surged.
Cheering and jumping, vitality spurted out of the blood for the first time in a long time, shouting Levi's name hoarsely, and the whole place was boiling.
"Levi!" "Levi!"
Shouts came and went, and the whole place circled.
After the recent upheaval and turmoil, Levi continues to grow in stature in Kansas City and is undoubtedly a true leader.
Some people hope that Levi can lead the team to withstand the pressure and get back on track. Some hope that Levi can lead the team to overcome difficulties and further complete the transformation. Some people just cheer for Levi. Some people use their actions to become part of Levi's prestige and ignite Kansas. The passion of the city.
Bustling and hot.
Anne only felt like a small boat in the stormy waves. She tried her best to make a sound, but in the blink of an eye she was swallowed up by the heat wave of the whole place.
This was something Anne hadn't expected.
what to do?
Anne's little head turned quickly, and she could see Levi's figure approaching.
Close.
Closer.
Anne was so excited that she could no longer control herself and sang loudly.
"Go forward, go forward, hopefully. You'll never walk alone."
Again. Again.
As she sang, Annie's eyes filled with tears. She couldn't tell whether it was because of Levi, herself, or the excited crowd in front of her.
However, my heart beat like this, so clearly, so turbulently, so powerfully. As I sang, a smile crept up to the corner of my mouth, blooming wantonly.
It's a pity that the singing voice is still weak, insignificant among the surging shouts of the audience. Only a small number of fans around can hear Annie's small but tenacious, fragile but powerful singing voice, and they can't help but look over -
This is not a support song for the Kansas City Chiefs, but for the Premier League team Liverpool.
To be precise, this is not from Liverpool. It originated from a Broadway play "Carousel" and was produced by Frank-Sinatra, Elvis-Presley, etc. By the time it was a cover, it was already quite famous, but it was later reinterpreted by Liverpool fans and became an integral part of this traditional football team.
Of course, not only Liverpool, but countless other fans also often sing this song.
Felix looked at Annie with surprise on his face. Seeing the bright and determined smile on Annie's face, the corners of his mouth also curved upward.
Then, sing along, and then Karen.
Jenna looked at the scene in front of her, surprised and stunned, and even a little at a loss. She stumbled and hummed softly along.
But Jenna was still unsure. She looked around and saw those unfamiliar faces bursting with incredible passion, and she was actually a little scared.
This was the first time she had attended such an event, and she had never been able to understand sports or the fans.
Jenna hurriedly looked back, her heart beating wildly, she looked forward, and then she saw Levi's familiar and kind face approaching.
Levi stood not far in front with a smile on his face, clapping his hands to beat the beat and humming along, his expression and eyes filled with encouragement and relief——
Just like at Anne's birthday party, Jenna looked at Anne's eyes and encouraged Anne and her friends to sing birthday songs and make wishes around the birthday cake. The emotion of touching and happiness filled her whole chest.
A song is finished.
Levi raised his hands high and took the lead in applauding. The whole place was noisy, applause and whistles swarmed in, and even Jenna's smile blossomed:
Things don't seem that bad.
