Vaughans also nodded: "This is definitely, I have played for many teams. Do you want to hear how I do it?"

An Ke was in a spirit: "Of course! I told the captain my story, but the captain hadn't told you yet."

"Well..." Vaughans raised his head slightly and recalled. "I was born in Mannheim, so the first team I joined was a local team in Mannheim, called 'Phoenix'. At that time, there was not the current Bundesliga. Puhoenix is ​​not a famous team, you must have never heard of it, right?"

An Ke nodded honestly. It was indeed the first time he heard of the difficult name.

"That's just a small team in Mannheim, playing in the regional league. I had a good time there, and later went to another team in Mannheim called 'Walderhof'. You haven't heard of it, right?"

An Ke nodded honestly again, he knew what level of team it was.

"Walderhof can participate in the National League, which should be the case after the Berlin Wall was pushed. I performed very well in Waldhoff. One season later, I received an invitation from Leverkusen... You should have heard of this name?" Vaughans deliberately joked to make An Ke feel better.

An Ke smiled indeed. He nodded: "I must have heard of this."

"So what do you think I should do at that time?"

"Agree!" An Ke blurted out, without thinking. What else is there to think about? Compared to that team, Leverkusen can be considered a super team, why not go?

"You really think so. My friends and family were all advising me to choose Leverkusen, but I hesitated."

"Hesitation? Why?" An Ke was a little surprised. No matter what, Leverkusen is better than a team that has never even heard of its name.

"No," Vaughans shrugged, "It's just because Mannheim is my home. I have lived there for nineteen years, have many good friends and many memories. I was a little reluctant to leave. At that time, I was younger than you now..."

"What about it later?" An Ke asked.

"Later? Later, I chose to go to Leverkusen because I had to go to a better place to improve. I was not satisfied with always playing football in a low-level league team. Although I was reluctant to leave, I still said goodbye to Mannheim, went to Leverkusen, and stayed there for seven seasons. During that period, I gradually became the main force from a substitute and was selected for the German national team for the first time." Vaughans, who had told the story, turned his head and looked at Anko, "This is the first major choice in my life, what you are facing now. What I want to say is that whether you go or stay, you have to come to this decision. Once you make it, don't regret it. Just follow it all the way."

Vaughans stood up. "Don't let anyone influence your judgment. You are the goalkeeper and you should know this." He turned around and walked outside.

An Ke was still sitting on the ground, recalling every word from the captain, and still letting the hot water drip off his head.

This shower was really long.

※※※

An Ke, who had changed his clothes and planned to drive back to the city for dinner, suddenly wanted to find someone to chat with and talk about his troubles and plans for this choice. To put it bluntly, he wanted to find someone to talk to.

But who should I find? There are friends in the team, but they all have their own families and lives. An Ke doesn't want to disturb others for this ridiculous thing. The captain will be a great listener, but they just talked about it, and I'm really embarrassed to find him again.

Who are you looking for?

An Ke sat in the car, tapping the steering wheel with his fingers, without any clues. He thought about it and decided to go to the bar where he used to work and have a few glasses of beer. Maybe he would not have any worries.

An Ke, who made up his mind, started the car, slowly turned out of the parking lot, boarded the road, and drove towards the city.

※※※

Because of his previous work, Anke is no longer familiar with the city of Dortmund, let alone a bar where he has been to countless times?

Parking the car on the side of the road, An Ke pushed open the door that he had pushed open countless times.

The bar is still the same, at least it looks like this. But there are a few old customers holding their glasses to greet An Ke who came in. Those customers who An Ke didn't know were obviously surprised by his appearance.

An Ke greeted the familiar people and walked straight to the bar. When he sat down, he was still smiling at the people next to him.

A female voice was asking him: "Sir, what do you want?"

He tilted his head: "A cold beer."

"OK."

When he turned his head, he was startled. The waiter who served him and poured him wine was nothing but Lin Jia, who hadn't seen him for a long time!

An Ke really didn't expect to meet Lin Jia here. I remember that the last time they met was before he was transferred to the first team, which was a long time ago...

"What? We haven't met for more than a year, so we don't know me anymore?" Lin Jia was very natural. She was surprised when An Ke pushed the door open, but An Ke was busy greeting others at that time, but she didn't see her. Then she greeted a friend who was facing An Ke, exchanged some questions and asked her to entertain An Ke.

Anke stuttered: "No, no...how do I remember I haven't seen each other for a long time?"

"That's because you don't have anyone in your heart." Lin Jia frowned and pouted and said to "sad".

An Ke was startled, "Okay, okay, don't say such unnutritional words. Where is my beer?" He tapped the table gently.

Lin Jia didn't mind what he said, and put the wine in front of An Ke with a smile.

An Ke felt that from the perspective of appearance, Lin Jia had no change. The last time he saw him, he had long hair, but now he still has shoulder-length hair. It should be more gentle than when he was short, but why is his face thicker than before?

He had no choice but to do anything about this girl. He was really an enemy. He could meet her everywhere. He was drunk at the school gate and wanted to drink, so he met her in the bar.

He ignored Lin Jia and drank on his own.

Lin Jia didn't go to greet other guests, but stood opposite An Ke, and had nothing to do to wipe the bar in front of him for no less than ten times, and did not leave.

An Ke felt very strange: "Have you changed the boss in this bar? I remember that the boss in the past was the one who looked down on his subordinates most."

Lin Jia picked up the wine glass and wiped it: "Who said I'm lazy? I'm working very hard and ready to serve you at any time." She used a respectful word, but she couldn't tell the expression of respect on her face.

Tsk! It turns out that his face is getting thicker and thicker. An Ke sighed in his heart.

An Ke didn't want to continue this kind of unnutritional conversation anymore, so he decided to change the topic. "Why do you think about coming here to work? I remember that the condition at home is that you don't need to come out to earn living expenses, right?"

"Because I'm going to graduate."

"You can also ask your family to send you living expenses." An Ke remembered that girls like Lin Jia would go back to China and bring enough living expenses and tuition fees for a semester. If they were not used up, they would call home remittances. But Lin Jia is not the kind of girl who spends money randomly, and she has never experienced a shortage of funds before the end of the semester.

An Ke hasn't noticed until now. In fact, he cared about Lin Jia so much that he even knew her situation.

"That's not the case. It's just that I don't want to go back to China yet, so I want to work and make money, and prove to my parents that I can be independent."

"Do they miss you back?"

"I am the only daughter. I have been away from home for five years. Of course I want me to go back! But I still want to stay in Germany, so I have to prove that I can live in Germany alone."

It turned out that Lin Jia was also facing the question of whether to leave or stay. But why did she stay? As far as An Ke knew, if Lin Jia returned to China, with her family's ability, she would definitely be better than working in Germany.

"You have something to worry about?" Lin Jia asked knowingly, because she knew that Anke was very worried about staying in Dortmund or going to Bayern Munich in the past few days.

"Yes, it's a matter of staying or leaving." An Ke pointed to the empty wine glass, "I'll have another glass."

Lin Jia put away the cup and replaced Anke with a new one. "Dortmond and Munich?"

An Ke nodded.

"What's there to hesitate about this? You must have gone to Munich, and people are walking to a higher place!"

Perhaps it is because of "same illness and compassion" - facing the same problem of staying or leaving - An Ke doesn't care about talking about so much about Lin Jia's concerns. "If people are going to a higher place, the world will be simple. I have been in Dortmund for five years, studying here and starting my career here. The fans here are very nice to me. How can I leave whenever you say I can?"

Lin Jia said again: "Since there are so many things that you can't rest, then stay!"

An Ke shook his head again: "But Bayern is really good. From a career perspective, going to Bayern is more promising than being in Dortmund."

Lin Jia tsk: "A big man, is there such a mother-in-law and mother? Isn't it just a matter of one word?"

An Ke looked up at Lin Jia. His hair had grown longer, but his careless temperament had not diminished much. He smiled: "Sometimes I wonder whether you are a man or a woman."

"It's not a shemale anyway."

An Ke smiled so hard that he lay on the bar. After drinking some wine, he became a little excited. After laughing, he drank the remaining beer in the glass and then jumped off the stool: "Okay, I won't be poor with you. I have to go back and rest. Thank you, I've made me feel much better."

"Did you drive after drinking?" Lin Jia was a little worried.

"Ha! I haven't taken two glasses of beer seriously yet." An Ke put the wine money and tip next to the glass and turned around and left.

Lin Jia looked down at the money. Apart from the alcohol money, the tips he gave were really enough. Lin Jia had been working for several months and saw such a generous customer for the first time. She looked up at the tall back again. He waved goodbye to someone, then pushed open the door and disappeared into the night outside the door.

※※※

When An Ke returned home, he did not rest as he said, but was considering his choice very seriously.

He felt that he was a little similar to the captain's situation when he went to Leverkusen. People who knew him were advised to go to a better Bayern Munich, but he was hesitant because of his feelings for Dortmund.

The captain finally chose Leverkusen, which is more conducive to his development. So do you also choose Bayern Munich?

Lin Jia also said that men don’t want mother-in-law and make decisions early.

Sister Hua has no future in staying in Dortmund.

The thirty or so fans held banners in the rain, silently hoping that they could stay.

Future, money, reputation, fame, value, price...

"Don't let anyone influence your judgment." An Ke remembered what the captain said to him, and decided to calm down and put aside what he had seen and heard in the past few days, and only consider it from his own ideas.

I don’t know how long it took, but he raised his head and thought it clearly. He didn’t want to waste time and planned to call Sister Hua immediately.

After dialing Sister Hua's phone number, he said to Sister Hua in a very calm tone and speed: "I've thought about it, Sister Hua, I decided to stay in Dortmund."

With Zhang Jun's precedent, Huafang was no longer surprised. She just asked: "Why?"

"Because some people want me to stay, I owe Dortmund too much, I want to compensate this team."

"You have compensated enough, right? And as far as I know, not everyone wants you to stay. After the transfer news is made public, there are many people scolding you. Why do you still want to stay? Don't be soft-hearted because of the small number of fans." Huafang is already making the final efforts.

An Ke remembered the more than thirty fans, "Sister Hua, to me, that few fans are all fans."

He wanted the captain to say that to him so that he would not be bound by personal feelings and put his career first, just like the captain chose Leverkusen. "Don't let anyone influence your judgment", but this was used on the captain's own suggestions.

"You gave up Bayern Munich like this? Do you know how rare this opportunity is?" Hua Fang is considered a "dead struggle".

"Sister Hua, people often say 'weak team goalkeeper'. I think maybe I will succeed in Dortmund? You don't have to persuade me anymore. I will not regret it if I have considered it seriously. No matter where I will go in the future, now I just want to play football for Dortmund."

An Ke said this just as he said, "To me, those few fans are all fans." It is very firm and cannot be refuted.
