It is now 1:30 in the afternoon, and there is still half an hour before the game starts. Of course, this is to avoid the highest temperature at noon.
In fact, Wanfeng didn’t really feel any difference between 1pm and 2pm in July and August, as they both gave people the sun.
The happiest people in this kind of weather are the vendors selling popsicles and soda, and they all shout their voices like hoarse ducks.
Wan Feng felt very friendly when he saw these vendors. He had done this business in his previous life and this life, so he knew how hard it was.
So I bought twenty popsicles without hesitation.
Li Mingdou took two, He Xiao took two, Li Yong took one, and the rest were handed over to the people from the Jiangbian Police Station.
"Uncle! Do you guys in the public security system hold basketball games every year?"
"It's not held every year. Sometimes it's canceled if there's a major case that can't be solved. This year, it's the provincial public security system basketball tournament. It also serves as a tryout. All the public security systems in Heihe District are participating, and there are dozens of teams in total."
"Why haven't I heard of it?"
"You? You haven't been in Heihe recently, have you? I feel like I haven't seen you in months."
By the way, I have been to the other side and Sijitun recently, and I have not stayed in Heihe for a few days in total, so how could I know what happened in Heihe.
"Uncle! Can we get first place?" Wan Feng and Wan Taimin sat on the steps in the shade and ate popsicles.
Because they both have the surname Wan, and Wan Taimin is more than ten years older than Wan Feng, Wan Feng calls him uncle.
After all, people with the surname Wan are relatively rare.
"Why are you here joining in the fun when you're not guarding your junk by the river?"
"Aren't we a family? Of course I have to come and cheer you on since you made it to the finals."
Wan Taimin shook his head. "Getting first place is tough! The General Administration has been the champion for several years in a row. Almost all the best players in the entire Heihe system are from the General Administration team. We're lucky to make it to the finals."
"Uncle! Your attitude is not good. How can you defeat your opponent if you don't have confidence in yourself? You must have confidence. And don't say friendship first and competition second. Just go for it. Bears are afraid of stupid people, stupid people are afraid of tough people, tough people are afraid of those who don't care about their lives. Only those who love to fight can win!"
Wan Taimin was amused: "This is just playing basketball, not fighting a war."
"Sports competitions are the evolution of war in peacetime. Only by fighting to the death can you win."
Wan Taimin obviously didn't listen to Wan Feng's words. When the game started, the Jiangbian Police Station was beaten ten to two as soon as they came on the court.
It was only then that Wan Feng discovered that the coach from the General Administration was actually Zheng Chaoyang.
If we give these people in the General Administration some drinks that cause diarrhea, will they be in trouble?
Wan Feng was idle and thinking about it, but unfortunately he didn't have time to buy laxatives or anything like that. Even if he could buy some, he wouldn't dare give it to the police, as that would be tantamount to seeking death.
Although Wan Feng cheered loudly after Jiangbian Police Station scored a goal, the gap in strength was a bit too big, and Jiangbian Police Station seemed satisfied with getting second place, and played without any passion.
At the end of the first half, Jiangbian Police Station lost by seven goals with a score of 26 to 40.
"I came here to cheer you on and bring honor to our riverside. Look at what kind of shit you guys are playing. It's a pity my soda is gone. I knew you were playing like this, but I didn't even give you a sip."
A large basin was filled with cold water from the well, with more than a dozen bottles of soda soaked in the water.
"Hey kid, how can you talk to the police?"
"What are you doing? Are you trying to scare me? You can't say anything about a police officer being a bad basketball player? That's not illegal, right? You stinking basketball player!"
The people from Jiangbian Police Station were no strangers to Wan Feng. Every holiday, the base would send them all sorts of goodies in the name of sponsorship, so the relationship between the two sides was quite close.
Sometimes we joke around when we meet.
"If you can do it, come up!"
"Fuck! Don't confront me. If the rules allow, I'll go up and hit you, so you can see how I play."
Wan Taimin thought about it and actually asked someone to change his clothes and give them to Wan Feng. Anyway, he didn't think he could win.
"Wan Suo, is it okay for me to go up like this? This is like child's play. After all, this is a competition for the entire Heihe Public Security System!"
"If I say it's okay, it's okay. We can't beat the General Administration anyway, so what position do we play?"
"Defender, I'm best at assists and defense. Leave that arrogant forward on the other side to me. I promise to make sure he doesn't lose his temper at all."
The General Administration’s number six player scored 18 points in the first half. This is unbearable!
"Wan Suo! You'd better go and discuss this with Director Zheng. If I come up and win and he cheats and refuses to count, then my fight would be in vain. If he disagrees, just say I'm the sponsor and the sponsor requires me to play or he won't pay me."
"Then he'll ask what you sponsored. How should I answer?"
"Just say you sponsored 2,000 yuan."
Wan Taimin actually went over to discuss it.
The police officers at Jiangbian Police Station looked at Wan Feng with various expressions on their faces.
"What are you looking at me for? Listen up! I've donated 2,000 yuan, but if you come in first, you'll get the money, but if you don't, you won't get a cent!"
"Boss Wan, does this count as bribing the police?"
"That's not bribery, it's encouragement and sponsorship! I'll keep my word. If you win first place, I'll give everyone money and we can go out to eat. If you don't win first place, you can only drink soda."
Wan Taimin ran to the General Administration and pulled Zheng Chaoyang over to talk to him about this and that.
Zheng Chaoyang looked up and saw Wan Feng in his uniform arguing with the people from the Jiangbian Police Station.
Zheng Chaoyang was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
"He wants to play? This is against the rules. Isn't this a mess? What do you want those teams down there to say?"
"What are you talking about? They've already been eliminated, what are they allowed to say? Besides, Boss Xiao Wan is our Jiangbian Law Firm's sponsor. He thinks our poor performance is embarrassing for his base, so he's strongly demanding we come off the field and teach you a lesson. He said he won't pay us unless we let him off."
"Oh! He's your sponsor? How much did he sponsor?"
"Two thousand! He said that if we win first, the hotel will give us a bonus. That's not against the rules, right?"
Zheng Chaoyang narrowed his eyes and rolled around for a long time.
"Okay! Agreed, he can leave."
"Director Zheng! If he plays and we accidentally win first place, will that count?"
"You still want to be first?"
"Let's be frank first. What if a miracle happens?"
"Since we've got him out, it certainly counts, but I think you're in big trouble."
In fact, Wan Taimin also knew that it was very difficult, so he just said it first because it was just a waste of saliva.
With the referee's whistle, Wan Feng came off the field in high spirits.
