On a certain day of a certain year, Earth, City H.
The famous e-sports club "Xingchen" is located in the upper city area of H City. Game fans who come from all over the country often take photos in front of the sign at the gate.
Xingchen Club is currently involved in many online e-sports games, such as "Honghuang Xianjian" and "Xinghai Zhenghe". But their most famous achievement is naturally the first world championship in the world's hottest game "Song of Iron and Fire".
It is said that the golden sign at the door was awarded personally by the General Administration of Sports.
At this moment in the club's training room, a row of neatly arranged holographic game cabins were placed against the wall. The players were lying in the game cabins, while their consciousness was being trained in the virtual environment built by a private server.
The team coach stood in front of the big screen, watching the players' practice on one side and monitoring the data stream on the big screen on the other side, including the players' heartbeat, pulse, brain wave intensity, etc., to ensure that the players' bodies are always in the best condition.
But from time to time, the coach couldn't help but look at the game cabin in the middle.
That is the gaming cabin exclusively for the captain of the Star Team.
It was empty at this time.
"Hey, Coach Ye!" On the big screen, a semi-transparent player suddenly greeted the coach outside the field, "By the way, have you found the captain?"
"No." The coach frowned. "The Public Security Bureau needs to wait for 24 hours before they can open a case. Anyway, you guys should train first. Maybe he will come to the club later."
"I'm just worried about him." The player said with a playful smile, "He didn't ask for leave and didn't come to work, so doesn't that count as absenteeism? If the boss fires him because of this, won't our Star Team be ruined?"
"Our team won't fall without anyone!" The coach sternly corrected him, "I'm talking about trickery, didn't you and him leave work together yesterday? Don't you know where he went?"
"I really don't know!" The contestant named Guishu complained immediately, "I wanted to take the captain to a food stall last night, but you know the captain's family situation, it's not convenient for a single-parent family, and his mother would be worried if he came home late."
"I asked his mother, too," the coach said. "He didn't come home last night."
"This is very strange." Guishu said puzzledly, "Master Ye, you said that a beautiful girl might be kidnapped by a thug who was attracted by her beauty while walking on the road at night. What could happen to the captain, who is a 100% straight man? Could it be that he was followed and knocked unconscious by a fanatical female fan, and planned to illegally seek scriptures?"
"Please stop talking trash, this is not a game." The coach was speechless about his dirty jokes, "Don't lead your teammates astray."
The trickster in the game laughed and ran to the nearest teammate - this teammate was a young boy with a rather immature appearance, who looked to be about twelve or thirteen years old. He was from the youth training camp and played the account of a weapon master. He planned to take over the role of captain in the future.
"Xiao Zhao!" Guishu slapped him on the back, "Are you still practicing the Nine Star Styles? Take a break."
"Senior Trickery." Xiao Zhao was much more polite. "Do you want to teach me something?"
