Volume 1 Chapter 21: The Baseball Bat That Brings Courage
"Oh~ Captain! Oh~ Van Persie! Oh~ He is our leader~ Hehe!"
Inside the house, Billy was humming an inexplicable song with made-up lyrics, apparently praising Van Persie's recent performance.
I have to say that Van Persie's performance in recent times can be described as crazy.
He repeatedly rescued Arsenal from trouble, and his crucial goals had an extremely inspiring effect.
Arsenal fans have gradually come to agree with Van Persie and feel that it is good to have a captain who scores so many goals.
Billy is a clear example of this.
"It's decided! I'll go to the home stadium to watch the next game! "
Billy slapped his thigh and said excitedly.
Lucky sat on the sofa nearby, the ball kept going back and forth between his feet but never touched the ground. He smiled and said, "Meadows will be very sad."
"Don't worry about him!" Billy waved his hand. "That's his conflict with Wenger. Why should we pay for it? Besides... your debut isn't far away, right?"
Lekai smiled, stepped on the ball, and said, "The club has informed me that there will be a hearing around the end of November. The chances of passing are very high!"
“Great! I will definitely be there for your debut!” Billy said excitedly, “Come on, score a goal! If you score in your debut, Arsenal fans will never forget you!”
Lucky smiled bitterly: "I'm a defensive midfielder!"
"Who said a defensive midfielder can't score goals!" Billy said.
Lucky shook his head.
Theoretically, anyone can score a goal in a football match, but the probability of a defensive midfielder scoring a goal is really low.
Turning around, I saw Kevin sitting on the floor fiddling with his baseball glove.
Kevin is an Arsenal fan, but he loves baseball more.
There are several sets of baseball equipment in the house.
And after the last rebellion, Kevin began to become cheerful and joined the school baseball team.
Lucky thought about it, then stood up and walked towards Kevin.
"Kevin, can we talk?"
Kevin held the baseball glove and looked up in confusion.
Lucky walked upstairs and Kevin quickly followed.
Inside the room, Lucky closed the door. He looked at Kevin and said with a smile, "I want to borrow something from you."
"What?"
Kevin asked curiously.
Lucky said with a smile, "It's a baseball bat that brings you luck!"
"David's baseball bat?" Kevin nodded. "I can lend it to you."
After a pause, the little guy rolled his eyes and said, "Were you bullied too?"
Lucky was stunned for a moment. Does it count? Count it!
Lucky nodded.
Kevin ran straight out of the room and into his own house across the street.
After a while he ran back and handed it over with a baseball bat in his hand.
"I'll lend you my courage. Beat them hard! After the last incident, they don't dare to bother me anymore." Kevin clenched his fists and said, "Come on!"
Lucky took the baseball bat with a grin.
At this time, Kevin came over and asked curiously, "Who are you going to beat? The one from the first team?"
Lekai smiled and patted Kevin on the head, but there was no response!
…
The next morning, Lekai got up early again for a morning run.
I ran along the country road all the way to the spring, and my body was slightly sweating after the round trip.
Lucky felt that he was a little more tired than before.
The increase in weight increases the physical workload.
Lekai shook his head, you can't have your cake and eat it too.
To gain something you have to give up something.
A strong physique is the weapon he needs.
Abundant physical energy is also a good ability, but at present, it is not as important as physical strength!
Billy's home is a typical country house.
A two-story building + a low warehouse.
Since the family has a farm, the warehouse has everything.
And the warehouse was filled with the smell of cow dung, so no one except Billy would choose to go in.
For this reason, Billy didn't lock the door, and Lucky entered very easily.
The warehouse is extremely messy...
Various feed buckets, daily tools, and even pots and pans were scattered all over the floor, leaving no place to step.
And the strong smell of cow dung could make him vomit repeatedly.
“This damn place!”
Lekai couldn't help but curse softly, covering his nose and starting to look around.
After searching left and right, I finally found a pile of sacks stacked together in a corner.
The yellow sack had some dark brown marks faintly sticking to it, and the foul smell was wafting from there.
Lucky picked up a wooden stick from the side and started rummaging around.
Finally, I found a relatively clean jute bag in the corner.
But the sacks were still stained with a foul smell.
Lekai could only pick it up with a wooden stick and put it outside, hoping that the smell would dissipate.
“Huh~~~~~”
After walking out of the warehouse, Lucky couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
After spreading the sacks on the lawn to disperse the smell, Lekai returned to the house.
After washing up, Lekai took out a plastic bag and walked out of the room, picking up the sack. Although there was still some smell, it was no longer pungent.
He put the sack into a plastic bag and tied it tightly, then looked down at the bag and saw that half of the baseball handle was exposed.
After completing the inspection, Lekai ran towards the training base.
After yesterday's farce, the atmosphere in the entire training base became extremely weird.
On the contrary, Lucky continued training as usual as if nothing had happened.
There were some changes in the training content. Wenger did not arrange a training match. Obviously, what happened yesterday made him a little worried.
The whole day was spent in basic training.
During this period, most people turned their eyes to Lucky Glory and Park Joo-young.
There was an obvious look of disappointment on Park Joo-young's face, probably because of what Wenger said to him yesterday.
As for Lucky, it was the same as usual.
During the contact, Arsenal players gradually got to know Lucky.
This guy can't be said to have a bad temper, but he is definitely not a good person.
Chamberlain once said that this guy beat the leader of the youth team on the first day of training with them.
And Lucky's style on the court is even more so, desperate and tough!
This is the most intuitive feeling that Lucky gives to the first-team players.
Would a person with this kind of personality swallow that breath?
The first-team players were a little confused.
But there was indeed no response from Lucky.
Even the coaching staff looked at Lekai nervously at first, fearing that this guy would do something retaliatory.
But it turned out that they were worrying too much, and Lucky didn't show any abnormality at all.
Still practicing hard.
In this way, everyone gradually forgot what happened yesterday.
Around three o'clock in the afternoon, the day's training ended.
Patrese approaches Lucky.
"today we……"
Lucky shook his head and said, "No extra practice today."
Patras was stunned for a moment. This was the first time that Lucky said he didn't want to practice more, but when he thought about what happened yesterday, he nodded in agreement.
After all, we need to give Lucky some buffer time.
After Lucky finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the locker room.
At the same time, Chamberlain went to the first-line players one by one.
No one knew what he said, but the front-line players all looked surprised...
Lucky was the first one to walk out of the locker room.
After he walked out of the locker room, he turned left and left.
But you need to turn right to exit.
After Lekai left, the first-team players also came out one after another, and they left in a hurry.
Soon, cars drove out of the underground parking lot.
On a street behind the club, Arteta parked the car, got out and looked inside through the fence.
Here you can see the entrance and exit to the parking lot.
Chamberlain told them after the training that he hoped they could leave the parking lot quickly and preferably drive away their cars as well.
Finally, he added, "This is Lucky's request!"
Although they didn't quite understand, they still did it.
It looks like he's going to cause trouble, so he'd better avoid getting into trouble.
However, Arteta is worried about Luka. He is worried that the young player will do something out of line.
So it didn't go far.
Leaning against the car and looking straight ahead, Arteta frowned slightly.
Suddenly, I heard the roar of an engine.
A black Audi S5 was parked on the side of the road.
Van Persie got out of the car.
Arteta took a look and said, "Are you worried too?"
Van Persie smiled bitterly: "I am the captain after all!"
After a pause, he asked, "Do you know what he is going to do?"
"I don't know!" Arteta shook his head.
The two had just chatted for a few words when they heard the sound of an engine again, and it was not just one car.
Soon, there were almost six or seven cars parked on the side of the street.
Van Persie, Arshavin, Walcott, Mertesacker, Ramsey, Szczesny, all those who have a good relationship with Luka have come.
Everyone looked at each other.
"You guys are here to watch the fun, right?"
Van Persie seriously suspected that these guys were just here to watch the show.
In response, Walcott said: "We are worried about Le!"
Van Persie rolled his eyes and said, "I would never believe you."
Szczesny suddenly said, "I was the second person to enter the locker room. I just passed by Le and I saw a baseball bat in his bag!"
Everyone was shocked and immediately looked at Van Persie.
Van Persie, the Dutch stick king!
Please explain it to me!
"Why are you looking at me?" Van Persie cursed; "How could I know!"
Everyone was disappointed not to hear any professional explanation.
"Park Joo-young went in!" Arteta said suddenly.
Everyone saw Park Joo-young walk into the underground parking lot, apparently preparing to drive away.
There was silence for ten minutes.
Everyone looked on eagerly.
It was a full ten minutes later that they saw Lucky come out.
He was dragging a baseball bat in his hand, his clothes were very neat, and he didn't look like he had ever been in a fight.
He walked like a dragon and a tiger, and his posture was extremely powerful.
"What did he do?"
Walcott was dying of curiosity.
The same goes for others.
Under everyone's gaze, Lekai did not leave, but walked straight towards the office building.
"What is he going to do now?" Van Persie felt a headache.
He couldn't quite understand Lucky anymore.
You shouldn't run away after committing a crime.
Why did you take the initiative to go to the office building?
Are you going to surrender yourself?
