Fish Playing While Trapped in a Secret Room Vol 3 Chapter 15

Chapter 15

Book 3: Glory on the Other Side

Chapter 15

 

What a pity……

The entire audience felt the same way.

 

Besides the members of K&K, Xiaomi also looked at the quiet professional players
on stage.

Needless to say, the importance of a qualified teammate was fully demonstrated in this
match.  Although the captain, Dt, could fight against three rivals by himself alone, it was
very difficult to play against a team of five strong players.

 

“Do you know?  Actually……”  The male commentator paused for half a second on purpose,
 “I have been looking forward to a tie for quite a long time.”

“Ah?”

“Secret Room Duel.  Finally, they will start the Secret Room Duel!  Isn’t it really exciting?”

……

What was so special to be excited about?

Ai Qing thought to herself.

The Secret Room Duel was in a narrow enclosed room where the players of both teams
were randomly selected for 1v1s.

The probability that K&K would lose was very high.

Demo and One would definitely lose.  Though 97 and Grunt might win, they still might lose
if they are matched with Buff.  The Secret Room Duel was undoubtedly K&K’s weak point.

 

“Xiaomi.”  Ai Qing took out recording pen.  “Can you partner with me later to record the game
commentating for tonight?”

Xiaomi was stunned.  ‘Me?”

He looked at the two captains sitting to the right of Ai Qing.

“You’re from Solo’s original team. You understand better than Slide and Bug about our old
opponent.”  Ai Qing whispered.

Xiaomi hesitated. He didn’t know how to refuse when he saw Ai Qing’s face with ‘help me
out’ written all over it. He finally reluctantly nodded.  “I’m just afraid that I’m not good enough
and it’ll affect your views.”  “No worry.”  She raised eyebrows with the confidence of the top
commentator,  “I’ll take care of everything.  Don’t be afraid even if you say something wrong,
I’ll edit it later.”

Ai Qing pulled Xiaomi’s sleeves to take him out of the audience area before Xiaomi even agreed.

She didn’t want to watch another match…...he definitely would win individually, but his team
had a high chance of losing in the Secret Room Duel.

 

They briefly recorded the opening introduction and summary of the strategies based on their
recollection in the lobby.  Slide sent a text to her shortly after that K&K lost the Secret Room Duel.

She clenched her cell phone, lost in thought.

“Who is your boyfriend? You look like a woman in love.”  Xiaomi glanced at the name who
sent the text to her.  “Slide?”

“Uhm?”  Ai Qing looked at Xiaomi in surprise.  “What are you talking about?”

Xiaomi rolled his eyes.  Huh.

“Not Slide!”  Ai Qing corrected him immediately.

Xiaomi glanced at her again.  Huh.  “It’s normal for woman of your age to fall in love.  But,
don’t forget SP’s rule, no love affairs…….”  “Stop talking nonsense”  Ai Qing suddenly stretched
out her hand.  Xiaomi instinctively stepped back, but couldn’t avoid the slap to his forehead or
the wall behind him……

……

 

Ai Qing mad

e up an excuse to leave early before the official compet.i.tion was over.  She searched
for a small road some distance away from the arena. She was a bit surprised when she found
the soup shop according to the food guide.

Er……

Why was it so small like a milk tea stand along the road?

There were only three tables inside the store, all the other customers ate on the small tables
by the roadside.  Everyone seemed to be enjoying their food.  She waited for seat for a while,
finally the two girls at the table on the roadside left just as Dt arrived following the address she
gave him.

It was already late into the night, he slowly walked down the road with both hands inside his
jacket pockets.  “I’m here.”

“Oh.”  She answered and felt that he was standing very close to her……”Did you win?”

“We won the second match, so we were qualified as the second in the group.”

Huh….fortunately.

 

The two girls who just stood up saw the man behind Ai Qing.  They couldn’t help but stare at
him, then glance at Ai Qing, then look at the man again……Ai Qing noticed their gaze and she
also turned her head around to look at the man.

Dt, in confusion, looked down at her.

Really……really handsome.  She thought.

 

Oh no, she shouldn’t think too much……her face was going to turn red again.  She turned her
head aside and looked at the menu on the wooden sign outside the store entrance that contained
seven or eight soup names.  Ah, this……”Is old cat soup tasty?”  She whispered.

She always saw the name every time she was in Guangzhou.

“……You can’t drink it.”  When she was interested in a weird food, she would order it just to
give it a try.  Based on the previous incidents when she ordered pig blood intestines and the
soybean latte out of curiosity, he needed to answer her in a direct manner.

“……”  She just asked without any intention to order it.  “Is it really……is it really cooked with
cat?”

“……”

“If your cousin knows about it, won’t he kill someone?”  Gun was a crazy cat lover.

“……”

Dt ordered two soups and paid, then……he hesitated.  Should he hold her shoulder or pull up
her wrist?  Ai Qing……she had already walked back to her seat and sat down.

He followed her silently.

The soups were served shortly.  She sipped the soup with a spoon.  Very delicious.

It was pretty good to drink soup late at night.  They seemed to always stay in hotels these past
couple of years.  A hotel has everything and n.o.body would come out to eat.  But things were
different now, she not only had to sneak out, she would have to sneak out further away.

She drank a few mouthfuls again.  Her eyes were restless, her face turned redder and redder.

 

She drank another few mouthfuls until she couldn’t stand it anymore.  She muttered lightly.  
“Why do you keep staring at me……”
