Chapter 1488 White Moonlight in the Water
Shi Li was always thinking about Shen Ze and the competition, and didn't sleep well the whole night.
I was in a daze and had a dream in which Shen Ze performed poorly and didn't even make it to the finals, and was scolded by the whole network.
I was frightened awake.
It was still gray outside the window and it wasn't even dawn yet.
“Why did I have such a strange dream…” Shi Li sat up and rubbed his head. He felt a little scared when he recalled the content of the nightmare.
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. Dreams are all the opposite. Shen Ze has already made it to the finals."
After comforting herself, Shi Li's uneasy mood calmed down a little. She yawned while hugging the quilt, lay down, covered herself with the quilt and went back to sleep.
[Watching the immersive live broadcast is really heartbreaking! ]
[Yeah, yeah, there’s no way to tell the anchor that half of her dreams were real woooooo~]
In the history that the barrage has experienced, Shen Ze did perform poorly in this final and only got eighth place.
Because he was praised too highly before the game, many domestic audiences were disappointed and he suffered an unwarranted online attack.
[To be honest, I also scolded Shen Ze at that time. I apologize! ]
[I was really irrational at the time. Athletes definitely want to win, and they won’t be scolded by the whole internet if they don’t get the results~]
[Haha, I was supporting Shen Ze all along, but some people on the Internet scolded me too (smile)~]
[So, will that unbearable history repeat itself? I feel a little sorry for Shen Ze T T]
Shi Li had something on her mind. Although she didn't dream this time, she didn't sleep for very long and woke up at dawn.
There are different time limits for domestic and local competitions. The final starts at 11pm local time, which is :am domestic time.
More than half of the people in the base gathered in the cafeteria, waiting to watch this game belonging to Shen Ze.
Everyone knows that if Shen Ze performs better later, he may soar to great heights.
Every circle is more or less inseparable from appearance. Shen Ze's face, coupled with his outstanding achievements, is simply a king bomb.
Zhuang Cheng got two cups of hot drinks from somewhere, gave one to Shi Li and held one for himself.
"I'm so nervous!" He kept stamping his feet on the spot. There was half a cup of hot drink left, and he didn't know whether he drank it or spilled it.
Shi Li's palms were sweating, and she had to comfort him that everything was fine.
After waiting for a long time for the commentator to introduce the athletes, the originally noisy cafeteria suddenly became quiet, and everyone stared at the large TV that was specially turned on in the cafeteria with bated breath.
Shen Ze was in the fourth lane, so he was the fourth one to come in from the back.
Compared with the other seven Caucasians who made it to the finals, his 1.9-meter height did not give him any advantage at all. He even looked very thin and looked weaker than the others.
The camera gave a close-up of his face. His eyes were blocked by goggles, but Shi Li felt a calm and gentle force, and his restless mood miraculously calmed down.
Looking at Shen Ze's face, a word suddenly popped up in my head - worldly-wise but not worldly.
Following the referee's signal, a total of eight athletes stood on the diving platform and were ready to jump. Shi Li stared at Shen Ze closely and held her breath unconsciously.
When the starting gun sounded, eight people entered the water almost at the same time, and it was impossible to tell the order with the naked eye.
Only the starting reaction time was displayed on the big screen, showing the order in which the eight athletes took off in the form of data.
Shen Ze’s jumping has always been a weakness, ranking sixth among the eight people, so he has no advantage at the moment.
But in the 100-meter short-distance sprint, the difference between the eight world-class athletes was only a fraction of a millimeter.
Shen Ze's advantage was in the second half.
The competition pool is a standard 50-meter pool, and the final focus is turning around and swimming back to the starting point.
After the first 50 meters, it can be vaguely seen that five players have fallen behind the others, and the remaining three, including Shen Ze, are in the lead, with a small gap.
Shen Ze is in third place.
If the final result is the same, it will become a new record in China and even in the continent.
But what all athletes aspire to be is the championship. No one will be satisfied with third place, even third in the world.
No one knows what Shen Ze is thinking in the water now, not even himself. He is wholeheartedly focused on the water and himself, putting aside all distractions and focusing only on the key points ahead.
"It seems... that we have caught up with the second place?" Zhuang Cheng's voice was soft, as if he was afraid of scaring someone.
Shi Li didn't say anything, but her eyes got wider and wider.
There were only ten meters left in the race, and the three leading runners could not be distinguished in order with the naked eye. One could only see the last one touching the wall.
Boom—boom—boom!
Whose heartbeat is about to burst through the chest.
The sound of the on-site machinery was transmitted through the TV, and in the blink of an eye, all eight contestants had reached the finish line.
The camera switched to the on-site display screen. Whether people at the scene or those watching the live broadcast, their eyes were focused on the display screen.
The color of the national flag belonging to the first place is familiar and dazzling!
Shi Li's tears fell down.
