"Disappeared?!"
President Fang, who had always been respected and respected by his subordinates in the Telecommunications Association, finally lost his composure when he heard Number Three's words. His jaw dropped, and he could not help but stare at Number Three in bewilderment. His mind could not process what Number Three had just said.
"Where, where did they disappear to?"
"You guys didn't come back together?"
No. 3 sighed and looked at Fang Hao sympathetically. Then he told the truth.
"The two of them knew that you would bring people to block here today, so they changed their flight at the last minute. They arrived at Pudong Airport an hour ago. By now, they're long gone. The flight information you received was only for my flight —"
"To put it simply, I was used as a shield by the couple."
After saying this, No. 3's tone was full of resentment.
When they were in Los Angeles, the three of them had already come to an agreement. In the end, a certain bastard suddenly changed his mind at the last minute and took his fiancée away to avoid trouble, heartlessly betraying his old friend. The trick of forgetting friends for love was simply too 6.
After hearing the truth, Fang Hao felt his vision turning black. He almost lost his balance.
"No. 1 … how could he do this!"
No. 3 looked at Fang Hao strangely.
"That guy has always been like this. You know him for so many years. How could you not know?"
Fang Hao: "…"
Come to think of it, a certain someone was a legend who stood at the top of the pyramid in the previous generation's professional esports circle. However, other than his suffocatingly powerful strength and glorious, epic battle records, he was also famous for his lazy personality that made people want to beat him up.
I was too careless …
Fang Hao took a deep breath and turned to look at No. 3.
"Do you know where they are now?"
"It's not like they plan to continue their retired life after finally returning to China, right?"
No. 3 shrugged.
"Not really —"
"However, if you want to know where they are right now …"
"Why don't you call your vice chairman and ask."
Fang Hao was slightly stunned. "Ah Nan?"
Then, as if realizing something, he hurriedly took out his phone and dialed Chu Fang Nan's phone number. The moment the phone was dialed, Fang Hao quickly asked,
"Ah Nan, have Number One and Xiao Wu contacted you?"
The other end of the phone was silent for a moment, then Chu Fangnan's voice sounded with a wry smile.
"Yes, I've contacted them."
"They contacted me about an hour ago, but Number One told me not to tell you about this in advance, so I …"
Fang Hao did not have the time to reprimand Chu Fang Nan for hiding the truth.
"Where are they now?"
"Where did you go?"
This time, he was determined to capture No. 1 and No. 5. It wasn't easy for him to wait for these three legendary figures of the previous generation in the Chinese Esports circle. He definitely couldn't miss this opportunity to make good use of it!
Chu Fang Nan coughed on the other end of the phone.
"They … went to a Broadway shopping mall in Pudong."
Fang Hao was stunned.
"Brainiac?"
"What are they doing there?!"
This was completely beyond Fang Hao's understanding. The two legendary couples in the Chinese Esports circle returned to China after a year, and the first thing they did after leaving the airport was to go to a shopping mall that sold computers?
What kind of mess was this!?
Suddenly, Fang Hao thought of something and furrowed his eyebrows.
"Wait a minute … Broadway in Pudong, I remember there's some Gold Spear Cup being held there today?"
Chu Fang Nan nodded on the other end of the phone and explained truthfully.
"Yes, today is the knockout round of the top 16. The location is at Broadway."
"Number One and the others …"
"They told me they wanted to go watch the fun and temporarily be a guest commentator for fun."
Fang Hao only felt a little confused. He clearly had more important tasks to arrange. Why did the two suddenly have the interest to go to some high school team's Gold Spear Cup as a guest commentator?
Chu Fang Nan hesitated for a moment and explained in a low voice,
"In today's Gold Spear Cup top 16, Shanghai University of Finance & Economics, which Lin Feng is from, is also participating."
Fang Hao was stunned, then he patted his head and suddenly realized:
So that's how it is.
If that's the case, then everything can be explained. Lin Feng was Number One's only disciple. This time, when he returned to China, as the master, he wanted to go and see his disciple first. This was completely understandable.
But —
"Were the guest commentators for the Gold Spear Cup today already arranged in advance? The two of them went there at the last minute, so someone had to coordinate and explain to the organizers. "
Fang Hao frowned.
Chu Fang Nan smiled helplessly. "Yes, so I'm already here. I'm at the scene."
"Okay, I'll leave the matters over there to you." Fang Hao, who was finally relieved, gave Chu Fang Nan a few more words and hung up. Number Three, who was standing on the side, glanced at Fang Hao. "So, you've figured out the situation? If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving first … "
After saying that, he carried a shoulder bag and prepared to leave immediately. But before he could take two steps, the shoulder strap of the bag was firmly grabbed by Fang Hao. President Fang, who had regained his usual imposing manner, glared at Number Three fiercely.
"Stop dreaming!"
"Number One and Lin Feng got away, but you can't!"
"Come with me to the TV Association first. There are a lot of old people in the industry waiting to see you!"
… …
1: 40 PM.
There was still about half an hour before the start of the Golden Spear Cup. Lin Feng and Tang Bingyao took a taxi to the third floor of the Bainahui shopping center. The competition for the top 16 would be held in a small exhibition hall on the third floor of the Bainahui shopping center. When the two of them entered the exhibition hall, it was already very lively.
Almost all of the sixteen high school teams had arrived.
"Are we going to finish the top 16 today?"
Tang Bingyao, who was next to Lin Feng, swept her gaze across the hall. She was slightly surprised and puzzled when she saw the crowd.
"There's not enough time, right?"
There were 16 teams, eight groups, and each group was a best-of-three. If they wanted to finish all of them, it would take at least 10 hours. That meant the matches would continue until late at night.
Lin Feng scratched his head.
"I don't think they're going to finish in one go. They're going to be split into two days. Four groups today, and four groups tomorrow. Some schools don't have a match today, but they still have to come to the venue to see how strong the other teams are."
He paused for a moment, then added, "I don't think so.
But we're playing today anyway. "
"I think our opponent is —"
"Oh? Who is it? I think they have to draw lots first, but it doesn't matter who it is. We'll definitely win anyway. "
Lin Feng's words sounded so natural that Tang Bingyao didn't doubt him at all. She nodded in agreement.
"Yeah, we'll definitely win!"
The two of them were chatting casually when a surprised voice came from not far away.
"Little brother Lin Feng?!"
Lin Feng subconsciously raised his head and saw Cheng Qing Qing excitedly walking towards him.
