Ch52 - Seige

Edited by kat

“Fu Ge, it’s time to prepare for the next scene oh.” 

The stage supervisor ran up in a hurry.

The next scene was about to start, and the director had called for Fu Ge several times. Who knew what was going on with Fu Ge, but he hadn’t responded the entire time. 

It was only when Fu Mingyuan heard the stage supervisor calling him that he came back to himself.

He handed his cellphone to Du Jing, who had been standing next to him for a long time and looking up at the sky. He lowered his eyes a bit, his slightly haggard brows now carrying a bit of a smile.

When walking, his lapels were gently blown by the wind, and his fingertips in his pockets rubbed against each other.

It gave off a little bit of heat. 

It was clearly very windy, and there were people around who had put on down jackets.

Du Jing looked at his back and shook his head helplessly. 

The two of them had quarreled and made up in less than a day.

…… 

In the evening, Shen Qi made a training appointment with Bo Li.

Bo Li had pulled in a few other members of the Turkey team, while Sun Fan had pulled in three members of the main EVE team, four members of EVE’s secondary team, and half of the youth training team. BIG’s He Bin had also pulled in two members of their main team. 

As soon as Shen Qi saw so many people in the groupchat, he grew happy.

Your Qi Ge: Little Fanfan, is this you perfectly grabbing all of EVE to be my training companions? 

Your Qi Ge: Hello, children. I’m your team captain’s male god.

Sun Fan: ….. 

Sun Fan: ….How did you know that….

Bo Li: ??? 

He Bin: What kind of eyes do you have?

EVE’s members: ….??? 

Shen Qi chuckled.

Lu Tun, who was sitting next to him: It’s like seeing the scum man qualities of Idol. 

He and Ye Lai looked at each other and then patted Xu Leng on the shoulder.

Your Qi Ge: Smile.jpg Swindling you 

Your Qi Ge: Don’t love me, there will be no result. I am a man with a husband

Bo Li: Typo? 

Sun Fan: …..

He Bin: Thumbs up.jpg 

Your Qi Ge: Shy.jpg No typo

Everyone: ……!?!! 

The groupchat didn’t blow up, but the three bases almost blew up.

Half an hour later, the first training match began to test the waters. 

Shen Qi looked at the random map and didn’t know who had chosen Erangel.

He propped his chin in his hand and half-narrowed his eyes. His eyes stung a little, and he yawned and marked a pin at the southern point of the C shaped buildings in Sosnovka Military Base. 

“It’s still me and Dog Di together.” His voice was a little lazy.

Xu Leng answered affirmatively and patted himself on the face. 

His hands couldn’t shake, and he couldn’t get nervous.

Lu Tun and Ye Lai answered affirmatively. 

Shen Qi chuckled. “Dog Di, don’t be nervous ah.”

He licked his lower lip and continued with a bit of a comforting tone, “Just treat it as a regular server, and you’ll be fine. It’s just for entertainment.” 

Needless to say, Shen Qi also knew that they wouldn’t rank anywhere high during a training match for testing the waters.

The youth training team was easier to deal with, but if they ran into anyone from the main teams, they probably couldn’t get along well. 

Xu Leng stared fixedly at the screen and nodded.

Then, as soon as they landed, they ran into EVE’s youth trainees. 

It seemed that the other party didn’t expect to be face-to-face with them after landing, and their footsteps while going around the southern building paused.

Shen Qi got a 98K as soon as he landed, and his mood instantly changed for the better. 

“Captain, there are two people in the north building.” Ye Lai reported the number of people.

Shen Qi answered affirmatively, closed the door of the room, and crouched by the window for a while. It wasn’t long before he saw someone outside. 

He clicked his tongue. A lot of people had jumped to Military Base.

We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.

Most of the people had jumped to Military Base. 

Snfgsbcf tjv uefrrfv Vtfc Hl’r atbeuta qgbmfrr. Ktlr kjrc’a j obgwji agjlclcu wjamt, jcv bo mbegrf, atfs jii kjcafv ab xlii Xbv C bcmf.

Tfr, j afjw, j ktbif afjw, cba bcf qfgrbc.

Shen Qi raised his eyebrows, pressed the corners of his eyes with his fingers, took back his M4, and slowly said, “Alright, I’m surrounded.” 

Xu Leng let out an “ah” and came out of the next room.

There were more and more footsteps entering the building. 

Ye Lai and Lu Tun over there also noticed something wrong.

The footsteps were too noisy! 

“Are these people dogs?” Lu Tun couldn’t help but complain

The agreed-upon testing the waters training match had turned into a siege. 

Ye Lai steadied his gun. “It’s pretty fun, everyone is very good.”

This was the way that they welcomed Shifu. 

Shen Qi let out a “wu,” switched out his gun to equip flash grenades, and went straight to the door without suppressing his footsteps.

He stood by the door, opened it, and immediately threw out multiple flash grenades. 

Chaos immediately erupted outside the door.

They weren’t even all people from the same team. 

Shen Qi also squeezed in and started firing.

These shots completely broke the agreed-upon rules. 

After Shen Qi finished firing the magazine and the flash grenades had lost their efficiency, Shen Qi plucked out a grenade.

Then he clicked on the all-voice channel, and with a hint of a smile, he asked, “It’s still not over yet? I’ve got a grenade in my hand, so is everyone all prepared?” 

The three teams blocked at his door were in a mess. It was crowded and difficult to get out. When they came in, they had actually been orderly, but they were confused by the sound of the shots just now.

They had all forgotten that they were here to lay siege against God A. 

There were several shots from an SKS from a sniper next door.

[EVE-Buxiu knocked down QAQ-Cold with a SKS] 

Shots from an AKM came from the northern building.

[BIG-Weapon knocked down QAQ-LAND with a headshot with an AKM] 

[HUOJ-Boli knocked down QAQ-TUN with an AKM]

“Captain, they’ve surrounded us! Cheaters! They formed a partnership!” As soon as Lu Tun fell to the ground, he began to madly complain! 

“Such a narrow corridor! They’re even blocking the way as a group!”

Ye Lai smiled until his eyes were slits, revealed a small tiger tooth, and his eyes gradually turned red. 

He hadn’t felt this atmosphere for a long time.

The three people gathered behind Shen Qi and began to watch how the captain was being besieged. 

Then they saw the captain standing in the crowd with a grenade in his hand.

The three people: ??? 

You could even do it like that?

Of course not. 

Shen Qi hadn’t even thrown his grenade down when Bo Li, over from the northern building, directly killed him off.

A row of kill prompts appeared on the screen. 

[HUOJ-Boli killed QAQ-Angry with a headshot with an AKM]

[EVE-Buxiu killed QAQ-Cold with an SKS] 

[……]

The other members of the team glanced at it and felt speechless. 

It was really hard to keep watching with this team name.

After Shen Qi was killed, a free-for-all began in the C buildings. 

After all, this was a game where you could even kill your teammates.

Kil prompts began to wildly pop up in the top right corner, and there were also accidental injuries. 

Looking at the chaotic kill prompts, Shen Qi laughed and stretched.

The three people standing behind him also looked at each other and laughed. 

At the end of the training match, everyone, one after another, started sending red envelopes in the groupchat. On a lighter red envelope was written the words—“Welcome Back.”

Shen Qi collected red envelopes while propping his chin on his hand and squinting sleepily. 

“So much!” Lu Tun was surprised by everyone’s extravagance.

Besides the youth trainees each giving 88.88 yuan, everyone else gave 888.88 yuan. 

Shen Qi raised his eyelids, slowly clicked on the red envelopes, and said in an unhurried fashion, “They have  the money.”

He hadn’t become soft-hearted or hesitant to take the red envelopes. 

After receiving the red envelopes, all the people in the groupchat spammed the screen together again.

[Welcome back] 

Shen Qi’s fingertips tapped on the screen.

He let out a little chuckle. 

Ye Lai grabbed Lu Tun’s arm with red eyes.

Xu Leng also sighed emotionally, “So nice.” 

Your Qi Ge: Thank you bosses for your red envelopes

Your Qi Ge: I will try my best to beat you guys next year 

He covered his eyes and laughed for awhile. His expression tried to hide his fatigue, and then he stretched. “I’m going to get some more sleep.”

Shen Qi threw his notebook to Xu Leng. “The new coach should be here tomorrow, and analyzing data won’t be my job. 

“However ba, you still need to read all of this.”

With that, he waved and went upstairs to sleep. 

Xu Leng flipped through the notebook and felt his nose sting.

It was all his data analysis. 

The captain should have been up all night last night.

…. 

When he got back to his room, Shen Qi received Bo Li’s private message again.

Bo Li had held back for awhile, but he couldn’t hold back anymore. 

Bo Li: Your boyfriend is the one who came to the hotel to pick you up last time?

Shen Qi scratched his hair and slowly replied. 

Your Qi Ge: Yes ya Shy.jpg

Bo Li: …..Really, a boyfriend? 

Your Qi Ge:? Yes, a big package, job is good, and he’s warm and considerate

Bo Li: ….. 

Bo Li didn’t want to talk and screenshotted this to show to some other team captains.

Heh, a traitor had appeared in a team full of single dogs. 

Soon, the news of Angry’s coming out and admitting his love spread all across the professional teams, besides Rong Jing and Kim Da-Ri, who didn’t really communicate with everyone.

Everyone speculated about exactly who would dare to date Angry. 

Bo Li, who had seen the real person: A tall, rich, and handsome guy

QAQ’s people didn’t dare to speak. 

Not only was he tall, rich, and handsome, but you guys may recognize him.

On the other hand, Shen Qi didn’t know anything about this. However, this kind of scene was completely within his expectations. 

……

On the second day, the new coach and Shen Qi’s express package that he had bought yesterday both arrived. 

The new coach was Lu Ziye, a former member of the former champion team HE. Now he had changed his profession to a game caster, and he was the person Duan Rong had gone to find before.

Lu Ziye knocked on the door with Shen Qi’s express package in his hands. 

The box was even pasted with the words “confidential items, please do not open without permission.”

Lu Ziye raised his eyebrows. 

This kind of thing had been bought by that one in his family before.

Lu Tun was the one who opened the door. Seeing a somewhat familiar caster standing there, he fell into a bit of a daze. 

“Hello, I’m your new coach, Lu Ziye.” Lu Ziye handed the box to Lu Tun and explained, “This is your captain’s express package.”

Lu Tun realized what was going on and quickly let him in. He carried the somewhat heavy box and went to the training room to find Idol. 

Shen Qi was practicing gun stabilization as usual, and he was still using that little shooting game. His score  was higher than yesterday’s high score.

Xu Leng was also practicing. Although his score couldn’t catch up to Shen Qi’s, it was also very difficult for ordinary people to achieve. 

Ye Lai stood at the side to guide Xu Leng.

“Idol! The coach has come, and here’s your express package.” Lu Tun was a little curious about what Idol had bought. How was it so heavy. 

Shen Qi stopped and closed his eyes before refocusing his attention.

Looking at the box in Lu Tun’s arms, he chuckled. “Ah, it arrived so soon.” 

He took the box and carried it upstairs.

He then took a photo of the box and sent it to Fu Mingyuan. 

Leaning against the wall, Shen Qi licked his lips and typed.

Your Qi Ge: Gege~ Everything is ready, just missing you 

……

“Here is the training schedule I’ve set up, you guys can have a look at it.” Lu Ziye had already analyzed everyone’s data several times before he came. Besides the three people who already had competition stats, he had used game videos for Xu Leng. 

Shen Qi looked down at the schedule.

Besides Xu Leng’s personal training time, everyone else was pretty much the same. 

All of them would have two weeks of personal training, and after those two weeks, they would start having training matches with other teams.

It was similar to Shen Qi’s previous assumption. 

“Because Xu Leng has no competition experience, I will personally give Xu Leng one-on-one training guidance.”

Xu Leng nodded, with some firmness in his eyes. 

He must not be the team’s weakness.

Lu Ziye also explained some other matters related to the future training. 

The meeting lasted two hours.

It was only after all the others had left that Shen Qi said with a smile, “I’m troubling you with this.” 

Lu Ziye also replied with a smile, “You even sent people to my home to menace me, so that I had to come.”

If it wasn’t for Duan Rong, the team manager, coming and harassing him every day, Lu Ziye would rather have still been acting as a game caster. 

Shen Qi clicked his tongue and said, “I was inviting you.”

Lu Ziye raised an eyebrow noncommittaly. 

Shen Qi stood up and thought of something again. He gently kicked the sofa. “By the way, the store you shared with me has good logistics.”

It was just that he hadn’t tried out the stuff he had bought. 

Lu Ziye realized what was going on after a few seconds and laughed.

One minute later: 

“No, Shen Qi, you didn’t arrange a room for your guys’ new coach?”

“Choose yourself, any empty room is fine. Make your own bed, and the quilt is in the cupboard.” Shen Qi’s voice came from upstairs. 

Lu Ziye sighed.

He was both regretful and happy. 

Back when Angry had retired, he had found it such a waste.

Now he was back. 

……

Shen Qi went back to his room. 

He had just been in a meeting and had muted his phone, so he only saw his messages now.

fmy: What? 

The timestamp was from half an hour ago.

By now it should be time for dinner. 

Shen Qi took out a utility knife and began to open the box.

He had kind of bought too much. After all, this was his first time, and he didn’t know what to buy, so he chose all the things that could be used and also every flavor. 

He split things into categories and photographed them for Fu Mingyuan.

Your Qi Ge: These ya Gege Shy.jpg 

After sending the photos, Shen Qi went to take a bath.

When he came out, the other party was still busy and hadn’t replied yet. 

Shen Qi put his cellphone in his pocket and prepared to go downstairs to train for a while. Before he stepped out of the room, the cellphone in his pocket began to vibrate wildly.

Shen Qi stopped. 

He looked at the caller ID on the cellphone screen and frowned slightly.

This person was really good at picking a time to call, always calling when he was in a good mood.
