Chapter 114: Li San, It's Snowing in Hokkaido! (Daily, Proceed with Caution if Sensitive)

~6 min read 1,189 words

Although Lewokusen is very "poor" in some aspects, 1 million euro needs to be paid in installments.

But "small change" won't be stingy.

The entire team stayed at a five-star hotel inside the Shard.

The Shard is the second-tallest building in Europe, located on the south bank of the Thames.

Floor-to-ceiling windows in some hotel rooms overlook a view of more than sixty kilometers around London.

Who has time to look at the scenery?

The mature teammates went out early to feel the humanistic sentiment of the Thames riverbank.

Havertz took out a game console from his luggage.

Brandt sent a long string of messages to his first love girlfriend, feeling depressed.

Tuopu Laotou and the coaching staff gathered in a suite to review the match.

Li Kang woke up.

He hurriedly opened the system panel.

【Mission is being settled...】

He glanced at the time and realized he hadn't slept for long.

The phone notification bar was filled with a long string of messages.

He casually flipped through them.

The last column.

It turned out to be a message from the Neon Girl.

"Li San, the wind on the Thames is strong."

South bank.

Accompanied by a faint bell sound.

The ancient Victorian-era architectural complex seemed to be telling the story of the riverbank.

"Li San, you just finished the match, are you tired?"

Asuka-chan brushed up her bangs and wore a mask.

Li Kang shook his head.

The two walked side by side along the Thames at night.

The Seine nurtured romance.

The Thames flows with history.

The wind is strong.

Asuka-chan unknowingly walked behind Li Kang.

She recently became the exclusive model for an Asian magazine and happened to come to London for an outdoor shoot.

"Li San, have you seen 'Broken Bridge of the Soul'? The blue bridge in the movie..."

Blue bridge?

Stamford Bridge?

Chelsea?

If they could advance to the quarterfinals and encounter Chelsea, where would Lewokusen have any chance of winning?

Li Kang stood frozen, images of Diego Costa, Hazard, William, Courtois, etc. appearing in his mind...

After a moment.

He then realized: she was referring to the movie starring Vivien Leigh.

"The blue bridge in the movie is Waterloo Bridge..."

"Li San, aren't you unhappy?"

The river wind lifted the Neon Girl's hair.

She lowered her head, murmuring softly:

"Is it because of me?"

"Li San, sorry... I'm in the rising phase of my career..."

"So, we can't..."

Before she could finish speaking.

A sycamore leaf fell onto her shoulder.

Li Kang expressed understanding.

Just like the content of a 1990s youth pain film played by a Dragon Kingdom psychological counselor: "I will study hard! I won't talk to you!"

Asuka-chan is a very independent girl.

Unwilling to spend others' money.

Will not let feelings affect her career.

He turned around and stepped back two steps, increasing the distance from the Neon Girl.

Asuka-chan grasped the sycamore leaf, the bitter cold wind sweeping over her whole body.

She was startled, then quickly stepped forward two steps.

"Li San! You're walking too fast!"

"Li San! That's the Elizabeth Tower! Also called Big Ben!"

"Li San! It's snowing in Hokkaido!"

One hour later.

Li Kang returned alone to the hotel room.

He and Fei Niao Jiang didn't do anything.

I just couldn't understand what the other person was thinking; we had agreed to break off relations, but in the next moment they changed their mind.

At this stage, my most important task is to play football well; how can I be constantly contacting girls?

I need to be self-disciplined.

Starting today, I must train harder.

The system notification sounded softly:

【Ding! Treasure chest mission completed: Escape the armory!】

【Mission feedback: Alright, I didn't expect you to use your brain; next time, your brain might not help either!】

【Mission reward: Arsenal Legend·Platinum Treasure Chest!】

How come the feedback's tone... every time it sounds like a chuunibyou villain?

Li Kang hurriedly glanced at the prize pool.

【Bergkamp "Ice Prince" module (damaged)!】

【Bergkamp "inside-of-the-foot curler" module!】

【Bergkamp "god-level chip shot" module!】

【Bergkamp...】

What's going on?

Why aren't there modules for legends like Henry, Adams, Vieira, Yin Enrait, Yong Bei Li, etc?

All are Bergkamp?

Does he have that many skills?

【Platinum Treasure Chest opening...】

The treasure chest floating in midair emitted an extremely dazzling light!

【Congratulations on obtaining: Bergkamp "Ball Sense" module!】

【There's a way to trap the ball called Bergkamp.】

【Sorry, I never take planes.】

【Sorry, I never take penalty kicks.】

Li Kang felt a slight numbness at the base of his skull.

The strange sensation from his feet let him realize that Bergkamp's and Baggio's "ball sense" are completely different styles.

In a daze.

Everything around him underwent a drastic change.

1998 World Cup.

Quarter-finals.

Netherlands vs. Argentina.

De Boer's fifty-meter guided long pass.

Bergkamp's century-defining ball control stunned the world.

That night.

One after another, news about the Champions League appeared on the front pages of major sports media.

《Genius midfielder turns the tide! Lewokusen escapes the armory! 》

《The magic of love spins! Champions League revived! 》

《Player chaos, Lewokusen team collectively ** after the match! 》

《Ceuch's divine save can't hide the decline! Gunners lose the initiative to advance! 》

《The silent leader, thermal imaging analyzes Li Mingdeng's stage command! 》

Shares, comments, and likes surged!

-【Arsenal had bad luck; they barely avoided drawing Bayern or Barça in the round of sixteen, only to encounter a dark horse!】

-【The list exposed in the collective ** news does not contain Son Heung-min or Li Kang; good, especially Son Heung-min, who is a role model for Asian players! He will surely guide Li Kang to become more disciplined and hardworking!】

-【I've watched Li Kang rise from youth team matches all the way to the Champions League, seeing him grow a little taller each time, like raising a son in the clouds!】

-【Although he's not from our Dragon Kingdom, I also hope he plays better and better, goes further in this year's Champions League, keep it up!】

-【Stop bragging, Li Kang is just a system player! He brings his own system; going to a powerhouse will make him even more awesome!】

Barcelona.

Robert walked out of the senior meeting room, covered in dust and dirt.

Luo La excitedly asked: "Are you packing up to leave?"

Robert looked impatient.

"That kid narrowly held Arsenal to a draw..."

"And we thrashed Eindhoven 5-0! The record can drown out any opposition!"

"Hope Teacher Kruyin recovers well, don't watch TV news..."

Lewokusen training base.

London City's collective ** scandal caused an uproar in Bei lai yin!

Fans gathered at the club office building to express dissatisfaction!

The legendary veterans of Mönchengladbach and Cologne all condemned this lewd behavior in front of the media!

Tuopu Laotou flew into a rage, making the whole team run twenty laps around the field!

Boss! Sun also left! He's the fastest! So he wasn't caught!

Havertz and Brandt, two youths, were alone doing passing drills.

Li Kang is not present.

He still has to attend a one-on-one tactics class.

However, Professor Bertolt has recently fallen ill and entrusted a graduate of the University of Göttingen to teach the class.
