I smiled and stopped paying attention to her. Situ Jianfei and Zhao Bin walked over. "Although the whole process was full of ups and downs, we won in the end. Congratulations," Zhao Bin said, clapping his hands. Shuai Dong ran over holding a banner. "You guys scared us to death at the end! It was so thrilling! When that guy from the Demon Skull Team went for the layup under the basket, my heart was in my throat. Thankfully we won; otherwise, it would have been a shame for this banner I stayed up all night making. I was even planning to take it to Beijing or even Shanghai," Shuai Dong said, stroking the banner as if it were his treasure. Pang Hao snatched it away from him. "Shuai Dong, you made this? The materials were all prepared by me, okay? You can't take all the credit."
We left Lake City Park feeling relaxed. Shuai Dong suggested going to the supermarket to cool off. "Stop right there! Absolutely not! It's almost noon, and you're suggesting we go to the supermarket? Let's head home," I interrupted him immediately. I turned my head and saw Situ Yanan standing there expressionless. Huh? Isn't this girl usually optimistic and quirky? Why is she suddenly so serious? I walked over and asked her, "Hey, Yanan, what's wrong? Did someone bully you? The brothers won the game; why aren't you happy for us? Cheer up!" After hearing this, Situ Yanan slowly lifted her head. "Brother Jie, congratulations on winning the game. Bye!" Then she ran off into the distance. "Yanan!" Situ Jianfei shouted and turned back to us. "You guys go ahead; I'm going to see what's wrong with that girl. Zhao Bin, let's go!" The two of them rushed after Situ Yanan.
After we six left Lake City Park, we disbanded on the spot. I asked A Fei how he felt about the game. A Fei shook his head. "Sigh! To be honest, it was really tough playing, especially in the second half when we only scored two points in nearly five minutes while they scored twelve points in a super comeback; that shouldn't have happened. Our teamwork still has issues..." A Fei analyzed our shortcomings, and I nodded in agreement. "Yeah, it's clear that Wufengyun is also a street basketball expert; he toyed with me several times... By the way! We seem to have forgotten to check who our semifinal opponent is!" I suddenly remembered, and A Fei smiled. "It's good to keep a bit of mystery; don't you remember how it was last season during the Street Basketball Championship? This way, we'll feel less pressure and can prepare for the semifinals more easily!" Sigh! That's true, but... I wonder if I'll have trouble sleeping tonight.
After getting home just in time for lunch, while eating, I suddenly thought of Haoshuai. I wondered how he was doing and if he participated in the competition. I should have checked the scoreboard earlier; Mortal Team only had three players registered, so if Haoshuai couldn't participate, Mortal Team would automatically forfeit. Sigh! I was looking forward to facing them in the city finals; it seems that possibility is slim now. After taking a nap in the afternoon, I kept thinking about this matter while lying on my bed lost in thought. "You took away my thoughts without an apology; the nights we walked together turned into a field of white snow..." Suddenly my phone rang beside me, startling me back to reality; it was A Fei calling. "Hey, why aren't you coming over personally? Hurry up! I'm waiting for you in my room." He hung up after saying those two sentences.
Hmph! A Fei is so lazy; it's just a few meters away yet he still has to call me. I need to fix this habit of his and save him some phone bills too. In less than five minutes, A Fei knocked on my door. My parents weren't home, so I went out to open it. As soon as I opened the door, A Fei rushed in complaining, "Why did you hang up on me? You made me come over; you're acting pretty high and mighty." "Hey hey! I'm just trying to save you some phone bills; come on in!" I pulled him inside and grabbed two popsicles from the fridge as we walked toward my room while saying, "Let's go talk in my room!"
Once we entered my room and sat down, A Fei took a popsicle from my hand and said, "Actually, I'm here to discuss Haoshuai's Mortal Team with you. I wonder if they advanced or not; Haoshuai's skills are quite good, and I'm really looking forward to facing him in the finals." A Fei then stuffed his mouth with popsicle while I excitedly nodded. "Yeah! I was just thinking about that! I think Haoshuai might be injured..." Suddenly I stopped short, almost revealing that Haoshuai was hurt; my big mouth really gets me into trouble sometimes. A Fei looked at me with confusion: "Injured? What injury? Is it Haoshuai?" I quickly thought of an excuse and lied: "No no! I meant if Haoshuai can't advance, he'll definitely be very sad!"
"That's just nonsense; who wouldn't be sad after losing? Unless they're heartless," A Fei rolled his eyes at me while continuing to eat his popsicle. Phew! Thankfully I'm clever enough; I'm really curious whether they advanced or not. I suggested to A Fei: "A Fei, why don't we go check out the scoreboard at Lake City Park to see if Mortal Team advanced? I'm really bored!" After hearing this, A Fei smiled at me: "Hehe! Actually, I'm bored too; calling you was just an excuse to get you to check out the scoreboard at Lake City Park." "Then what are we waiting for? Let's go!" After hearing this, I stood up and pulled A Fei outside while he protested: "Slow down! It's fine to finish your popsicle before leaving!" "Let's eat on the way!"
We hurriedly arrived at Lake City Park and rushed straight toward the scoreboard. When I saw the results of the lower bracket matches, I froze completely—Mortal Team actually swept Asura Team 40-0 and advanced strongly into the division finals! It seems Haoshuai not only played despite an injury but also had an explosive performance! A Fei beside me sighed: "Sigh! Haoshuai's strength is truly formidable; winning by thirteen points against an opponent in just ten minutes isn't easy at all—he's really scary..." Seeing A Fei like this made me quickly interject: "What are you talking about? Mortal Team only has three players; what if it was one of the other two who performed well? Do you think Mulin and Wei Feixiang don't exist?"
