A Broken Mirror Reunited In An E-Sports Ch 33

“Hurry! Tell us! What happened?”

A large number of viewers, who were not aware of the situation, entered the live broadcast room and asked what had happened. Soon, VIT, the two innocent people, responded, “The captain finished the game and didn’t walk with us. He disappeared, and we are looking for him.”

Hui Mao was in a good mood because he played well as the first-time starter in the domestic league. He carried his phone while wandering around the streets, saying, “This captain likes to eat… I will bring him some back. I don’t know what gift he likes, so I will secretly buy something.”

A viewer asked, “Why are you buying a gift for the captain? Is it his birthday?”

Hui Mao answered naturally, “Because he taught me a lot. The captain has been very busy and tired, and he encouraged me before the game today. I want to buy a small gift to express my gratitude.”

The person who asked the question just now had the ID of [RISINGSTAR], a very inconspicuous fan of the RS team.

[RISINGSTAR] seemed unsatisfied with the answer and persisted, “But you played well, didn’t you? You are not familiar with the situation since you just returned to China, but we, the viewers, have heard about it. Easy has always restricted the team members severely, so new players like you should be careful.”

Hui Mao was originally carefully examining a small cat ornament. But after seeing this bullet comment, his face suddenly changed, and his gaze became serious. He pulled up and paused at this comment and replied carefully.

“Perhaps the audience may not understand what the captain has done in today’s game. He allowed me and Ci She to accumulate experience, but the cost was him alone guarding the mid lane and watching the lower half of the jungle. With him protecting us, we dare to play so aggressively.”

Hui Mao himself did not know much about the fan wars in China, so he took the opportunity to educate the viewers. “Of course, this is a team review, and I can’t say too much. But in this regard, I want to clarify. Your statement is very absurd and surprising.”

[RISINGSTAR]: “Well, maybe he has become better in the new team. I wish him well. His former teammates did not have that kind of luck.”

At this moment, even a child like Hui Mao, who was not fluent in Mandarin, could tell the sarcasm in this comment.

He politely replied, “Hello, can you be clearer? For example, can you list specific examples of how he restricted his teammates, and we can discuss it?”

The person named [RISINGSTAR] disappeared.

But more and more people entered the live broadcast room because of this incident, and a large number of people began to join in.

Some passersby vaguely knew the situation – after all, the fan wars of RS have always been intense. Soon, some common comments from RS fans were brought in to help.

“For example, take Xiao Yun. He can play support in a 1v4 situation, but he was never allowed to start. What’s wrong with saying that he restricted his teammates?”

Hui Mao thought for a moment and felt that he had encountered a difficult question. “Is it necessary? I seem to have some understanding. You said Xiao Yun is the captain’s substitute. But before that, each of you had no substitutes in your team.”

“If he wanted to restrict his teammates, why didn’t he just not have substitutes from the beginning?”

The Hui Mao thought for a moment and felt proud of their logical reasoning. “If the captain really had such a dominating presence and could restrict the development of the team members, wouldn’t he be able to refuse substitutions as well?”

“Wouldn’t it be more convenient for a professional player without substitutions?”

The Hui Mao looked at the barrage and said confidently, “I’ve competed against this player Xiao Yun before and I think the reason he hasn’t been able to start is because he’s not good enough.”

Not good enough.

In other words, he’s weak.

His answer caused a critical hit that struck the soul.

RS fans fell silent.

Even passersby were speechless.

The VIT team, they sure were…

One after another, they dared to speak out!

The Hui Mao saw that no one was continuing to talk about Rong Yi and happily closed their mouth, not realizing that their own name was about to be sent to the battlefield, becoming the first new assistant to float up and remain completely low-key.

But more people were enlightened by a fact.

League viewers usually don’t have the time or energy to worry about the bloody battles in the fan circles. If they see something posted frequently, they’ll believe it.

It wasn’t until now that more people suddenly realized, “So that’s how it is! I’ve always heard that Easy was suppressing his teammates, but I didn’t know who it was, so I believed it.”

“Now that I think about it, it’s completely unnecessary! Why would he look for substitutes for himself?”

“You’re right! And if he were that kind of captain, why wouldn’t VIT’s team members be the same? They’ve only known each other for a short time, but Easy has been personally helping new members play, and every new member of VIT likes him so much. Why don’t RS and he get along?”

More and more passersby began to wake up to the realization: “Is this actually RS’s problem?”

“VIT’s team atmosphere is so good! I really like it! Rong Yi is clearly a very capable captain who can give people a sense of security!”

On the other side, Wu Dao Gu was also livestreaming. After searching around and not finding Ci She or Rong Yi, he started buying snacks and sending messages to the group asking if anyone wanted anything.

Hui Mao had picked out a gift for Rong Yi – a clay black cat.

A comment appeared in the barrage asking, “Is this you?”

Hui Mao denied it, saying, “No, I’m Hui Mao. This little black cat is the team captain.”

“What’s the story behind it?”

“The captain is in the training room playing games alone every day, like a little black cat.” Hui Mao couldn’t describe it more accurately. “It’s very elegant, mysterious, and cute.”

After buying the gift, Hui Mao prepared to meet up with Wu Dao Gu.

In the group, Xiao Yin and Rong Yi hadn’t replied yet. There was no news. But Ci She had sent a message saying, “What? You guys are livestreaming? I’m coming too, bring me some snacks.”

Ci She had just received his love number card on the other side – number 18. There were still 18 people waiting in line for their spicy hot pot. He finally had time to sit down and check his phone messages.

He hadn’t read the group chat yet, but he had received a few livestream notifications from some people with titles related to finding the team captain.

“Is this a new script game?” Ci She opened a livestream with the same title and changed the title to “Buying snacks for the captain, and looking for the missing captain.”

As soon as he started broadcasting, Wu Dao Gu mentioned him in the group chat and said, “You were here all along! Why didn’t you say anything? Where’s the captain? Brother Yin hasn’t heard from him and is probably worried sick.”

Ci She realized that everyone was looking for them and quickly clarified, “The captain is resting backstage. I went out to buy spicy hot pot – I didn’t receive any phone calls earlier.”

“Then why did you title your livestream ‘looking for the captain’?”

Once again, there was a crazy rant from a teammate. Ci She lowered his head and changed the title obediently: “I’m out to buy spicy hotpot, while apologizing for losing the captain. I’m being scolded by Brother Gu.”

Onlookers surrounded the entire incident and were almost driven crazy by laughter: “What a talented comedian! VIT is so much fun!”

Ci She hurriedly called Xiao Yin, “The captain is in the rest area. I’m sorry, Brother Yin. I didn’t receive the call or see the message.”

Xiao Yin said on the other end of the line, “Okay, I know.”

In fact, he had just asked the staff, and they had pointed him in the direction of Rong Yi.

Rong Yi was dozing, still in his usual habit of not sleeping deeply outside.

In the silence, he heard some faint sounds. The sound of the door being gently pushed, someone sitting nearby, the hem of their clothes lifting a breeze, and a cool fragrance, like a rainy summer night.

In his dream, Rong Yi had been wanting to talk to Xiao Yin. Xiao Yin had deleted him, and he didn’t know Xiao Yin’s international phone number. He had planned to explain things to him properly after the match, but he had never done so. Time had passed, and it seemed like there was no longer any point in explaining anything.

“Ah Yi.”

Rong Yi opened his eyes.

He heard Xiao Yin’s voice and was momentarily disoriented. His eyes still looked dazed as they gazed at Xiao Yin, with the reflection of water glimmering in their depths, misty and intertwined, as if he were feeling wronged.

He saw Xiao Yin standing in front of him, slightly lowering his head, his cold and clear eyebrows slightly furrowed, but his expression was somewhat unusual and flustered.

“Ah Yi, what did you dream about?”

Rong Yi didn’t immediately come to his senses and was startled to see Xiao Yin. He thought he was still in a dream.

He thought for a moment and replied, “I dreamed that you broke up with me and deleted me. I wanted to talk to you, but couldn’t find you.”

As he spoke, he didn’t feel too wronged, but rather remembered the scene and felt a little melancholy.

He lifted his eyes and looked at Xiao Yin with clear and bright eyes, but then his gaze drifted away.

In his dream, it was indeed true that they had broken up and Xiao Yin had deleted him, but now Xiao Yin had come back.

Rubbing his temples, he saw that it was already dark outside, and the rest area was getting dimmer and harder to see people.

He murmured, “Why hasn’t Ci She come back yet?”

Just as he was about to get up, he couldn’t move.

Xiao Yin suddenly leaned over, took his hand, and his big, knuckle-dotted hands were slightly warm at the fingertips.

He knelt in front of him on one knee.

Rong Yi felt stunned, his drowsiness disappeared in an instant.

Xiao Yin half-knelt in the shadow, gently holding his hand with his burning fingertips, and then, something hotter gently pressed against his knuckles.

It was Xiao Yin’s kiss.

He leaned down and lightly kissed the back of his hand, his voice deep, “Baby, I’m sorry.”
