Playing Fish Trapped in Secret Room

Book 3: Glory on the Other Side

Chapter 7

It was only a 10 minute drive from Ai Qing’s home to SP headquarters.

Slide went to his dorm to pick up something and she went upstairs by herself to Solo’s office.

There were quite a number of people here today.

She was only the manager for Secret Room, several levels lower than Solo’s position.  She sat outside his office and Solo’s secretary made a cup of tea for her, “Boss hadn’t slept last night after he picked up Inin from the airport.”  Secretary whispered, “He’s really an iron man.  Was he like this when he was a professional player?”

“Almost.”  Ai Qing looked at her watch.  “In the past…...he was always trying his best.”

There were some doc.u.ments on the secretary’s desk that were for Solo. Ai Qing took a look. The first page was related to the preliminary compet.i.tion of Secret Room.  It was the list of the teams registered in Guangzhou city. Since it was a new game, the preliminary wasn’t  monopolized by professional players, about 90% were all amateurs.

Soon, a name caught the attention of her eyes, it was a familiar team name.

……

Twenty minutes later, all the managers, captains from various Asia regions came out one after another from his office still chatting with each other.  Some people who knew Ai Qing nodded towards her, the others just pa.s.sed her by.

She walked in and closed the door,  “I’m here.”

“Sit down.”  Solo gently told her as he was rapidly typing on the keyboard, “Gou Gou, give me three minutes.”

Her feelings at the moment were quite intricate.

But only she knew it clearly.

“What’s wrong?”  The man who was filling out the form already felt the subtle difference without raising his head,  “Are you still bothered by the jet lag? Not feeling well?”

“No.”  She moved her eyes away and leaned on the large and deep sofa,  “I’m thinking about the opponents that K&K will be facing in the Guangzhou region.”

“You’ve seen the list?”  He smiled slightly while checking her face. It didn’t look too bad, so she must be feeling alright.

“I saw it.”

“What do you think?”

“I think……”  She sighed,  “I’m surprised that there is even a team with the average age of 30.”

“That’s an evasive answer.”  Solo laughed,  “Don’t forget.  This team was our team’s toughest rival in the past.”

Our team.

He meant Solo’s team.

“Right, right.  I even had a duel with the sniper of their team.”

The two teams were mutually exclusive.  That was what the captain of the other team said about the two.  For the two years when Solo’s team existed, Buff never won a single champions.h.i.+p, always coming second to Solo’s team.  Finally, after Solo’s team disbanded, Buff won the champions.h.i.+p for two years in a row.  But then a core member of their team became seriously ill and the team eventually faded away.

Similar to CS, Secret Room Storm was a first person shooter as well, perhaps that was the reason why Buff was making a comeback now.

After all, this was an area they were very familiar with.

And their strong rival from the past…...would never reappear again.

But, still, a team with the average age of 30-- --  

When she saw the name, her heart skipped a beat  She even hoped that this old rival could enter the national final compet.i.tion.  But what would be the reality?  n.o.body knew.  Especially with  K&K in that region……

The strength of K&K’s A team was obvious, even their B team was also pretty strong. Besides, they were all at the best ages for a professional player.

“I asked my secretary to rearrange the travel plan.  Because K&K is in Guangzhou and Buff reappeared, I want the captains of both Secret Room A and B teams to fly to Guangzhou with you to observe the compet.i.tion.”

“Then do we fly to Shanghai for compet.i.tions afterwards?”  She was a little bit hesitant, “Though there’s no time conflict, but don’t you think it might affect their training?”

“I don’t believe it will.”  Solo was very confident in his two captains.  “Slide and Bug both are experienced players.  It won’t have any actual impact if they miss training for one week. Besides-- --”

Solo didn’t finish his sentence.

She knew what he wanted to say.  “Are you still hesitant about switching Bug and Xiaomi?”

The dazzling sunlight came in from behind Solo.  Ai Qing squinted her eyes in order to see his face more clearly.  After about half a minute, the man with his back facing the sunlight slowly picked up his cigarette box and pulled out one cigarette,  “I’m sorry.  Ai Qing.  I am always a sentimental person.”
