Who dares to take the No. 1 parking space for Boss Davis? ——All the players present looked at each other in bewilderment.

Davis is not only the No. 1 goalkeeper, but also the captain of the team, and the most valuable and the highest-ranking person in the team.

Everyone knows that there is an unwritten rule in the team that any No. 1 position belongs to Davis - including parking space No. 1 in the parking lot.

Stealing Boss Davis' parking space, isn't that tantamount to challenging the boss's position?

"No, I'm not the boss. You know me. I...can't afford a Cayenne."

"You're not my boss. You know me. My driver's license was revoked last time because of drunk driving."

"I'm not the boss either. You know me. I drive a Mazda."

"He's not my boss either..."

The players have distanced themselves from the matter.

Harding gloated, "Boss Davis, I know who it is! We old men all know the rules! Apart from that arrogant Chinese kid, who else would dare to take your parking space?"

Davis's eyes suddenly became sharp, "Don't you have anyone to teach him the rules that newcomers must learn?"

Harding said with great joy: "Of course! Boss! We have dealt a heavy blow to that Chinese guy. I promise that he will never dare to share a locker room with us again!"

Davis nodded approvingly at Haldin, "You are worthy of me, Haldin. How did you do it? Tell us now so that we can all have fun together!"

Haldin said proudly: "It's boring to describe this wonderful thing with words. Why don't you all come with us into the locker room to see our masterpiece!"

The younger brother next to him also encouraged: "I guarantee that everyone will like it very much!"

Davis said expectantly, "Let's go in and take a look."

Harding and his younger brothers led the way, and the other players rushed to surround Davis and Walton and entered the locker room excitedly.

As soon as he reached the porch at the entrance to the locker room, Davis frowned slightly and sniffed hard.

Davis asked as he followed Haldin, "What's that smell?"

Haldin also sniffed hard, "It seems... like the smell of the sea, but with more layers."

The younger brother next to him said cleverly, "It smells better than the sea. It's obviously processed. It's like... some kind of high-end fragrance."

"I know, I know, this must be the ocean-inspired scent used by the Hilton Hotel - that's right!"

"Haha, I haven't been on vacation for a while, and the Southampton staff have already used fragrance in our locker room." Walton took a few deep puffs with satisfaction, "I like this smell, it gives me a surging feeling."

The other players also nodded and expressed their love for this high-end taste.

Some players even took a few greedy gulps.

When everyone happily entered the locker room, they saw piles of...

The team leaders such as Harding, Davis, Walton and others who were standing at the front were dumbfounded.

What the hell is this...

Fuck!

Oh my god!

Who the hell just said this tastes high-end?

Who the hell said this is the scent of Hilton?

Before the people in the front could even scream in surprise, the young boys in the back who couldn't see the floor eagerly squeezed forward to watch the fun.

Haldin was standing closest to the front. Seeing this, he turned around in fear and shouted, "Don't push! Get out now—ah!"

With so many people squeezing into the locker room at the same time, how could they just leave? Suddenly, the people in front pushed the people behind, and the people behind pushed the people in front, and the locker room became a mess.

Harding was pushed directly into one of the puddles, and his shoes were covered with it! After being trampled, the rich smell of "Hilton Fragrance" was immediately fully stimulated.

"vomit!!!"

Davis vomited! Then Walton vomited too!

The young boys at the back didn’t understand what was going on, but were still pushing forward to look out of curiosity.

When they saw the situation ahead, they all leaned over the wall and vomited! One player was afraid that vomiting on the wall would be bad, so he turned around and vomited on his teammate! The whole locker room was so lively!

The various sounds of vomiting and cursing were about to blow the roof off the locker room!

This is the first time that the locker room at Southampton's training ground has felt packed since it was built.

"Fuck it!"

Davis cursed: "Harding! How dare you cheat us - Ugh!"

Haldin looked aggrieved, "Boss! This, this, this, this is not our fault! We just - Ugh!"

"Hardin, you still say it wasn't you who vomited?"

"Shit, my new clothes are all stained with it—ugh!"

"How disgusting! How disgusting! Haldin, go to hell!"

"Stop cursing and get out first!"

Davis roared, "Who is blocking my way? Get out of the way!"

Chamberlain stood in front of Davis and Walton, pinching his nose and saying, "Boss, let me go in first—"

Davis was going crazy, "Chamberlain! Are you fucking crazy? You like this?"

"No, Boss!" Chamberlain gasped, "My training suit is still in the locker!"

"Fuck!" Walton cursed, "Is Chamberlain stupid? It's already this fucking time, what the hell do you want in training clothes?"

Chamberlain quickly explained, "It's almost 3 o'clock! Coach Atkinson wants to test us! How can we take the test if we don't have training clothes and shoes?"

When the players who were originally pushing towards the door heard this, they all turned around with their noses pinched.

“Yes, yes!”

"We'll be testing this afternoon! Those who fail will be on the bench! We can't not wear sneakers!"

The first-team players are not afraid of not having a place, but the substitutes and reserve players really care about the opportunity to be tested! Every substitute and reserve player wants to leave a good impression on coach Adkins!

Seeing the substitutes and reserve players fighting so hard, the main players of the first team also felt a sense of crisis! If the substitutes and reserve players all put on training suits and shoes for testing, but the main players didn't, wouldn't they be robbed of their positions by the substitutes and reserve players? "Please make way for us to go in and get the shoes..."

"Don't push in, there's soup all over the floor and you can't even step!"

"vomit--"

"Who the hell is still vomiting? Ugh—"

"I just want to ask, who the hell vomited in this big pool at the door?"

"It's Luke Shaw!"

"Fuck! Luke, you have such a large defensive area? Do you want to be a goalkeeper?"

"Sorry, bosses, I ate a little too much at lunch... Ugh!"

"Luke Shaw!!!"

"Stop arguing, get your things and get out!"

Harding, Davis, Walton and others were squeezed into a corner, which is also where the "Hilton fragrance" is the strongest.

Haldin had vomited so much that his mother didn't recognize him.

Davis and Walton's shoes and trouser legs were also covered with sticky "Hilton scent".

The whole scene is more biohazardous than the Resident Evil.

After struggling for several minutes, Davis and others finally escaped from the "biochemical chamber" in a very embarrassed manner.

Everyone vomited until their faces turned green and they were about to vomit out all the bitter bile.

Whether it was the experienced old players or the young players who had not seen much of the world, they were all weak.

"Fuck..." Davis wiped his mouth and said with a sour look on his face, "I vomited all the Louis XIII last night..."

Walton recovered his breath and immediately grabbed Harding's neck angrily, "Haring! This is what you did! You said you wanted to cause trouble, so go ahead and cause trouble. Why did you mess up our locker room like this?"

"You're not going to prevent that Chinese kid from using the locker room. You're going to prevent all of us from using the locker room!"

"Bullshit!" Wharton shouted angrily, "As soon as I entered, I saw seven or eight puddles of vomit on the ground! Is that the amount a person could vomit? It's clearly what you, Harding, and your minions vomited!"

Haldin was about to cry, "It's not us! We swear to God!"

Davis frowned and waved his hand, "Okay, stop arguing."

The players suddenly became quiet.

Davis enjoys extremely high prestige among the players, not only because he is a loyal veteran of the Southampton club, but also because he is the oldest, has clear and flexible thinking, is quite capable in doing things, and has the temperament of a team leader, so everyone respects him.

Davis said in a deep voice: "Although this matter is disgusting, I believe it was not done by Harding. Someone go first and ask the club's cleaning department to clean the locker room - Fuck, even if this locker room is cleaned, we can't use it in the short term. I want to emphasize here that if you want to deal with that Chinese kid in the future, you can, but you have to use a different method. Never do it in a place like the locker room where everyone uses it!"

Harding said in annoyance: "Yes! Boss Davis. But! He made us so embarrassed, we can't just let it go!"

The other players were also outraged: "Yes! We can't just let it go like this!"

"My Gucci shoes! They're ruined!"

"Stop talking, stop talking, I want to vomit again!"

"I'm so weak now. I'm sure I'll fail the test later!"

"Fuck you, that Chinese guy is so cruel!"

Davis took a deep breath of fresh air. "That Chinese guy is called Gu Ran, right? Humph, he is indeed a ruthless person! A grassroots newcomer dares to go head-to-head with all of us! It seems that I must go and meet this guy in person!"

"Boss Davis, fuck him!"

"Yes, Boss, you take the lead, and we'll do it together!"

"We have more than 30 people in the first team and the reserve team. I don't believe we can't kill him!"

"He should be training in the training ground right now!"

"Boss Davis, we'll lead the way for you!"

"Walk!"

Davis led all the players into the training ground in a menacing manner.

At this time, Gu Ran was performing fancy juggling exercises step by step on the training ground.

Gu Ran saw Davis and all the players walking towards him, and a smile appeared on his lips.

Looking at the blue faces of Davis and others, one can imagine the scene in the locker room - it must be spectacular, right? Gu Ran did not dare to think about it and continued to dribble the ball with his left and right feet.

The players surrounded Gu Ran, each of them looking fierce and gritting their teeth.

Davis walked up to Gu Ran, raised his chin, and asked in a cold voice: "Are you the new guy?"

Gu Ran responded with the same contemptuous tone: "Are you the Captain Davis who was late?"

Davis looked annoyed. "You are the first player in Southampton who dares to speak to me like that. It's only your first day here, and you've offended all the players in Southampton. Do you know what will happen to you?"

Gu Ran dribbled the ball and said with a smile, "Can't we use the locker room for the time being?"

"You still dare to mock us?"

Davis said angrily: "Let me tell you - your fate will be: in training, you have to be extra careful about your feet, your knees, and your back. In the game, no one will pass the ball to you, no one will help you defend, and all of us will isolate you! Your career has not even begun, it's over."

Facing Davis' threat, Gu Ran was not afraid at all.

From the moment he chose to go to war with the entire team, he had already expected this to happen.

This situation is also the most typical bullying behavior.

Coach Carter is right. In professional clubs, the phenomenon of forming cliques is very serious. Some players will form a clique because they come from the same youth training camp, some players will form a clique because of the same nationality or hometown, or the same cultural background, some players will form a clique because they have the same idols or the same habits, and some players will form a clique because they like to go to the same bars...

As a grassroots player with no professional background and a lone Chinese player, Gu Ran's isolation is obvious.

It is even more difficult to integrate.

To put it bluntly, even if you humble yourself and serve as someone else's grandson, you may not be able to integrate into the family.

Therefore, it is extremely difficult for every Chinese player playing football overseas, and they will definitely be bullied.

In addition to being strong, one must also have extraordinary strength to be able to gain a firm foothold step by step.

This is even harder than playing in League One.

This is also a necessary test to become a professional player in a foreign country.

Gu Ran was mentally prepared for this.

The road ahead is long and arduous... But no matter how thorny the ground is, or how many bullets are flying around, it can't stop Gu Ran's passionate steps! Gu Ran continued to dribble the ball steadily, and said in a cold voice: "My career is not decided by you."

Davis was stunned, raised his thumb and said, "Good! You have guts! Then let's see how long you can last in this isolated environment."

Gu Ran said proudly: "It's been a long time since I last saw you."

I wanted to add, “Even your mother knows,” but after thinking it over I held back.

You have to be more restrained.

After all, he was surrounded by more than thirty people. If a fight really broke out, even if he could avoid being at a disadvantage, he would not be able to gain any advantage.

As a reborn person, Gu Ran is very calm.

Davis sneered, "Boy, you are so arrogant. Do you know that someone as arrogant as you can't survive more than two episodes in a TV series?"

Gu Ran said proudly: "Sorry, I'm not a supporting role, I'm the protagonist."

Davis shook his head and said, "There is no TV show, movie, or novel where the protagonist is so arrogant."

Gu Ran said: "Don't you see it now?"

Davis was slightly startled, then said fiercely: "Boy, I'm not here to argue with you. Let me tell you, you now owe me two debts. One is the debt for destroying our locker room, and the other is the debt for occupying my parking space No. 1. I will settle these two debts with you. I'm going to make it clear to you first, because I'm a reasonable person, so that you won't feel wronged and innocent when the time comes!"

Gu Ran smiled, "I didn't destroy the locker room, and I didn't vomit in the locker room, but since you want to blame me, I have nothing to say. As for parking space No. 1 - did you buy that parking space?"

Davis said arrogantly, "That's not the case, but this is the rule. Everyone knows that parking space No. 1 belongs to the person with the highest status in the team. You are a rookie who has never played a professional game. You are not worthy of parking in parking space No. 1."

Gu Ran sneered, "Since it's not the club's rule, why should I follow your rules? Want parking space No. 1? Okay, it's easy. Just get to Staplewood earlier than me."

The muscles on Davis' face twitched suddenly. "Chinese boy, you will regret it soon. My brothers and I will teach you what workplace rules are."

Gu Ran put the football under his feet and said without any fear: "Come on!"

Davis stared at Gu Ran's eyes closely.

Gu Ran also stared closely at Davis' eyes.

The atmosphere in the stadium was extremely tense! The players around held their breath, waiting for Davis's order, and then they rushed forward to fight!

——Although fighting is strictly prohibited in Southampton, when all the players start fighting, the club cannot fire everyone! What's more, it was Davies who led the way! After a few seconds of stalemate——

Head coach Adkins walked into the training ground with his coaching staff.

The head coach, assistant coach, physical coach, equipment coach, goalkeeper coach, Gu Ran's exclusive one-on-one coach, Gu Ran's exclusive team doctor and exclusive physiotherapist all entered the training ground.

Davis' eyes moved slightly, and then he lowered his voice to Gu Ran and said, "Boy, be careful during training."

Gu Ran sneered: "Okay."

Davis glared at Gu Ran again, then quickly turned and walked away, walking towards the bench outside the venue.

Haldin: ...

Other players: …

At this time, head coach Adkins came over with a poker face and asked, "What are you all doing here?"

All the players' hearts tightened and no one dared to step forward to respond.

Their boss Davis was currently changing his jersey on the bench.

Gu Ran, who was surrounded in the middle, smiled and said calmly: "Oh, there is no coach. Everyone is very enthusiastic about me and wants to teach me."

The players surrounding Gu Ran blushed instantly.
