Chapter 24 Promise
Chapter 24 Promise
The conference room fell silent for a moment, and everyone looked at Lin Zhi.
"What do you mean?" Yu Ye asked coldly.
Lin Zhi put down the phone, "It means literally, the picture is real, and the card is mine."
"Lin Zhi!" Yu Ye almost roared, "Do you know what you mean by saying this?!"
"I know." Compared to Yu Ye's excitement, Lin Zhi looked much calmer, "Don't get excited, listen to me first."
Yu Ye's complexion froze, his Adam's apple moved slightly, and he didn't speak any more.
"The picture is real, the card is mine, but the money is not for me." Lin Zhi seemed to be thinking of some past events, with a bit of sarcasm in the corner of his eyes, he looked at the familiar bank card number on the picture, and lightly After laughing, he said slowly, "I used this card for Xu Rushen temporarily."
"Xu Rushen?" Ji Ningxia was at a loss, and didn't quite understand why Lin Zhi applied for a bank card for Xu Rushen to use. After all, in his perception, the relationship between Lin Zhi and Xu Rushen was very bad.
"Sniper Emperor, don't you have a bad relationship with Xu...Xu Rushen? Why do you still apply for a bank card for him to use temporarily?" Mo Xi and Ji Ningxia had the same doubts.
Lin Zhi nodded slightly, as if agreeing with what they said, tapped his fingertips on the table, and said: "Every relationship is not as bad as you see at the beginning, it is only after contact that there is friction that it becomes a relationship. Now."
"Xu Rushen and I entered TK in the same batch. We are about the same age. We were good friends at the beginning." Lin Zhi said this with a relaxed tone, as if he was talking about other people's affairs, "As for why the bank card was temporarily lent to him, It was because the salary of the team was paid out uniformly by bank card. He was still a few months away from becoming an adult at that time, and his family did not support him in taking the path of e-sports, so he couldn’t apply for a bank card. Let him have an extra bank card for his use."
Speaking of this, Lin Zhi smiled self-deprecatingly. At that time, he stabbed his friend twice. He never expected that his friend would stab him twice in the future. It's quite funny to think about it.
"Since it was only borrowed for a few months, why didn't he return it?" Ji Ningxia frowned.
"He returned it." Lin Zhi said quietly, "A few months later, on his birthday, he returned the bank card with his own hands."
"So the bank card is with you now?" Ji Ningxia looked at Lin Zhi with worry in her eyes. If the bank card is now in Lin Zhi's hands, then today's misunderstanding would not be cleared up even if she jumped to the Yellow River.
"It's not with me." Lin Zhi replied, "I didn't care about that bank card after Xu Rushen returned it to me. I just threw it in the drawer and didn't care about it. Then it disappeared."
Speaking of this, Lin Zhi sighed, "I thought I lost it carelessly, but now it seems that this card has been taken back."
Lin Zhi couldn't tell what he felt in his heart, but he just remembered himself. At that time, he was sincere to Xu Rushen. Although the relationship was broken and distant later, he never thought that one day Xu Rushen would do such a thing.
Looking at the 70 bill on the phone screen, Lin Zhi laughed silently.
70……
He raised his head and let out a long breath, and fed the dog sincerely, Lin Zhi must be lying if he said that he didn't feel sick.
Ji Ningxia at the side felt a little uncomfortable listening to Lin Zhi's words, lowered her eyes, reached for Lin Zhi with her hand hidden under the table, paused for a while when it touched her fingertips, then stretched out and grabbed Lin Zhi To the fingertips, gently squeezed.
There is no landscape on the face, but the small movements are set in one set.
Lin Zhi was amused by Ji Ningxia's small movements, he grabbed the hand that was about to retreat, and rubbed his fingertips against Ji Ningxia's palm a few times before letting go.
The sneaky movements seemed to be silent communication, as if Ji Ningxia said, "Don't be sad." Lin Zhi replied, "Don't worry, I'm fine."
Except for the two of them, no one in the conference room knew what had just happened under the table.
Lin Zhi tilted his head to look at Ji Ningxia, who was already facing him sideways, the child's ears were blushing, and his face was calm and deliberate.
How could he make himself so happy with just one movement?Lin Zhi thought.
The meeting on the resolution of the matter is still going on.
After hearing Lin Zhi's explanation, Chi Yiheng didn't speak for a while. Regarding the solution to this matter, he has not thought of a suitable solution so far.
This matter is difficult to solve because the holder of this bank card is Lin Zhi. Yes, the money was not sent to Lin Zhi.
There is no basis for words, who would believe such wording?If Chi Yiheng was not a member of TK, he would find it ridiculous when he heard it.
Yu Ye over there became irritable after listening to Lin Zhi's words, "Xu Rushen, you bastard! You just take the money yourself, and you still need to use your card! Did the fucking fucker die? Want to drag you together??"
"Tsk, that's enough, stop scolding!" Chi Yiheng interrupted Yu Ye, "The most urgent thing now is how to solve it. The people above have almost blown up my phone. If we don't come up with a solution, they guess I'm going to come to the base with a bomb on my back."
"Then you say this is the way to solve it!" Yu Ye said.
"I don't know how to solve it." Chi Yiheng honestly admitted that he had no choice, "How about this, let's make a statement first, and talk about other things when we think of a way."
"Okay." Lin Zhi nodded.
Seeing that the parties had no objections, the others didn't say anything. Chi Yiheng turned on the computer on the spot and prepared to edit the statement copy, but when he opened Weibo, Chi Yiheng's face turned pale at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Fuck..." Chi Yiheng couldn't help being rude.
"What's wrong?" Yu Ye was puzzled.
Others also attracted their attention because of Chi Yiheng's dirty words.
"Look at Weibo! Damn, that bastard Xu Rushen posted on Weibo!"
Hearing the sound, several people picked up their mobile phones and opened Weibo to check, and curses followed one after another.
Mo Xi: "I'll wipe..."
Yu Ge: "Fuck..."
Yu Ye: "Your uncle Xu Rushen, you bastard!"
The person involved, Lin Zhi, looked down at the screen, but did not speak.
At [-]:[-] in the morning, Xu Rushen, coach of the FNG team and former member of the first team of TK, posted on Weibo.
FNG coach—Xu Rushen: [I have never lost my trust in you, but today, I am very disappointed. 】
This microblog is undoubtedly adding fuel to Lin Zhi's current situation, pushing the anger of netizens to a new climax, and attacking him in groups.
Interpreting this Weibo, it probably means that no matter what the Internet says, but I, Xu Rushen, have never doubted that you, Lin Zhi, have cracked down on fake matches. Today's exposure really makes me feel disappointed.
On the one hand, he explained his position and showed his innocence, and on the other hand, he implemented Lin Zhi's match-fixing, straight to the heart.
What a white lotus, without using a sharp word, it pushed Lin Zhi who was already in danger further to the cliff.
Before everyone digested Xu Rushen's coquettish operation, they heard Chi Yiheng say again, "The alliance has also posted on Weibo."
The content of the Weibo on the Alliance side is also very simple, only a short sentence, but it makes the hearts of everyone in TK fall into a trough.
[About TK sniper Lin Zhi's match-fixing incident, we have already begun to intervene, and we will give everyone an explanation. 】
The alliance's involvement in this matter means that if Lin Zhi cannot effectively clarify the rumors of the match-fixing this time, he will be judged as a match-fixing match and will no longer be able to participate in the e-sports field.
Xu Rushen's move directly pushed Lin Zhi into a desperate situation.
"Lin Zhi..." Yu Ye called out.
Lin Zhi looked at it with a calm expression.
Seeing Lin Zhi like this, Yu Ye choked on what he wanted to say, and couldn't say it.
Yu Ye wanted to persuade Lin Zhi to tell the reason for his misoperation back then. Although he couldn't explain the bank card transfer clearly, it could at least alleviate the current situation. But the moment he met Lin Zhi's eyes, Yu Ye immediately I can't say it anymore, this kind of thing of tearing open the wound for others to see is too cruel.
The matter has not been resolved, but has a tendency to intensify, but even so, it is not possible to stay in the conference room and stare blankly. We can only adjourn the meeting first and plan for the long term.
On the balcony, Lin Zhi lit a cigarette and leaned against the railing in a daze.
I went through what happened today over and over again in my mind, but in the end there was no solution.
"Brother." Ji Ningxia walked over at some point, pulling Lin Zhi back from his thoughts.
"En." Lin Zhimeng took a puff of cigarette and replied vaguely, then he planned to snuff out the cigarette, but Ji Ningxia raised his hand to stop him.
"Don't pinch it." Ji Ningxia said, "I don't hate the smell of cigarettes that much."
At least Ji Ningxia didn't hate Lin Zhi's smoke smell that much.
Lin Zhi looked at Ji Ningxia in astonishment, his Adam's apple moved slightly, nodded, and chuckled, "Okay."
The child probably felt that he had encountered such a terrible thing, and it would be too pitiful if he couldn't even finish smoking a cigarette. You know, usually when Yu Ye occasionally smokes a cigarette in the training room, Ji Ningxia will be caught by him. Disgusted and kicked out.
Lin Zhi shook his head with a smile, only to feel that the sadness just now dissipated a lot, and the depression in his heart also faded.
"Today in the training room, the coach wants you to tell the inside story of your mistakes." Ji Ningxia put her hands on the railing, thinking of the brief eye contact between Lin Zhi and Yu Ye at the end of the meeting, said.
"Yeah." Lin Zhi took a puff of cigarette, "Then do you think I should say it?"
"No." Ji Ningxia answered without thinking.
Lin Zhi raised his eyebrows. After all, Ji Ningxia had persuaded him to tell what happened back then, but now his attitude has changed so quickly, which is really surprising.
"Why?" Lin Zhi asked.
"Because you don't want to talk about it." Ji Ningxia answered naturally.
Because Lin Zhi didn't want to say it, so he shouldn't.
Lin Zhi admitted that he was moved by the child's straightforwardness.
"Besides..." Ji Ningxia then said slowly, "Now the key to the matter is no longer the reason why you made a mistake back then. From the moment the screenshot was exposed, things have become complicated. If you go out, you will no longer be able to clarify the rumors of your match-fixing."
Ji Ningxia was right. If Lin Zhi had explained the reasons for his mistakes before the screenshots were exposed last night, he might have cleared his name of the fake game. The key point of the matter has shifted from why Lin Zhi made a mistake to what happened to the 70 yuan.
As for the reasons for Lin Zhi's mistakes back then, and the death of his grandfather, these have become no longer important.
Lin Zhi didn't know if this was a good thing for him.
Speaking of Yu Ye, such a simple reason, Ji Ningxia can think of it, Lin Zhi can think of it, Yu Ye can't think of it, but sometimes care is messy, and many things can no longer be judged with rational thinking.
"Brother." Ji Ningxia called.
Lin Zhi turned his head to look, "Huh?"
Ji Ningxia let out a long breath and said, "Asian Invitational, I want to be with you."
A gust of wind blew by, and the white mist of cigarette butts drifted far, far away. Lin Zhi looked at Ji Ningxia, and the child at this time had a stubborn seriousness on his face.
All the five senses are saying that he is real and wants to be with him.
Lin Zhi watched, stubbed out the cigarette in his hand, and smiled.
"We'll be together."
"After all..." Lin Zhi reached out to touch the birthmark on the back of Ji Ningxia's neck, "I promised you that the double row will definitely win."
