Chapter 478 – Fellowship
On the other side, Zhou Ping, Lin Qiye, and Huang Yuande were sitting together, holding a few leftover bamboo sticks in their hands as they casually talked.
Of course, the casual ones were actually only Lin Qiye and Huang Yuande.
Zhou Ping was holding the bamboo sticks, sitting stiffly on the stool, every now and then a member of Team 009 came up to talk to him, full of admiration and excitement, after all, it was also the first time they had seen the Sword Saint himself, and there was even a member of the team who asked Zhou Ping for a copy of his autograph.
During this process, Zhou Ping was like a relentless nodding machine, his hands were unnaturally clenched together on his thighs, and Lin Qiye even saw that the backs of his hands were starting to sweat ……
Huang Yuande likewise noticed this scene, associating it with today’s tea with Zhou Ping, as if he understood something, he gave Lin Qiye a look, and the two of them stepped aside in the name of going to the restroom.
”Captain Lin, Sword Saint this is ……” Huang Yuande was weighing his words.
”Social terrorism.” Lin Qiye added the second half of the sentence.
”Hiss, no wonder when I was chatting with him today, I always felt that he was a bit in love, I thought this was the Sword Saint’s pride ……”
”……”
”Right, Captain Lin.” Huang Yuande looked like he remembered something, “I made a few calls to Captain Lai Hong of Lin Tang City today, but there’s been no answer.”
”Is it on a mission?”
”It’s possible, anyway, I’ll go back and call again tonight, if I still can’t get in touch, you guys take this with you.” Huang Yuande pulled out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Lin Qiye’s hand, “I wrote him a letter, explaining your matter clearly, you just need to give him this letter when you get there, he’ll understand.”
”Then thank you Captain Huang.”
”It’s fine, a show of hands.” Huang Yuande waved his hand, “Lai Hong is a person who is already warm-hearted and can mix with anyone to get acquainted, you guys should also get along well when you meet him.”
Huang Yuande thought for a moment, “Except for the Sword Saint ……”
Lin Qiye deeply agreed.
”For the Sword Saint’s …… er, Social Terror, do you guys have any thoughts?” Huang Yuande was unable to accept the novel term “social terrorism” for a moment.
”We came out to train this time, and there was originally an element of exercising the social skills of Sword Saint seniors, but social fear is something that can’t be reversed in a short period of time.” Lin Qiye slowly spoke, “If we want to change Sword Saint senior’s current situation, the key is not in us, but in himself.”
”In himself?” Huang Yuande pondered for a moment, “You mean, let him take the initiative to accept this society on his own?”
”That’s right, if he has made up his mind to close himself off, then no matter how the outside world influences him, he won’t make a change, forcing more socialization processes on him will only deepen his fear of socialization, which will be counterproductive, and wanting him to take the initiative to open up his heart requires an opportunity.
This opportunity can be big or small, the point is to make him develop a thirst for socialization, only after making this change psychologically can he begin to integrate into normal human society little by little.”
Lin Qiye let out a long sigh, “And our existence can only serve to make an example for him, and when he tries to open up his heart one day and his own socialization experience is extremely lacking, he might mimic our socialization habits and go about integrating into his surroundings more quickly.”
After hearing Lin Qiye’s words, Huang Yuande’s eyes surfaced with astonishment.
”I can’t imagine that Captain Lin also has research on psychology?”
”It’s just that I’ve read some information on the subject.” Lin Qiye smiled.
In Dr. Li’s notes that he had excerpted, there were a few case studies on severe social phobia, and these words just now were Dr. Li’s opinions recorded in his notes.
Lin Qiye and Huang Yuande returned to their seats, Zhou Ping’s face had somewhat eased over, but overall he still looked tense, and was just a person who silently lowered his head to eat the skewers, and without realizing it, the bamboo skewers in front of him had already piled up into a small mountain ……
After enjoying a delicious dinner, Lin Qiye and the others returned to the hotel to rest, and set off on their journey to Lin Tang City early the next morning.
Sitting on the sofa of the private jet, Lin Qiye gazed at the white clouds leisurely drifting outside the porthole, but he had a vague sense of foreboding in his heart.
When he left Xining City, Huang Yuande still hadn’t contacted Li Hong, the other party was like he had evaporated, and the landline at the other party’s compound couldn’t be reached, which meant that Team 008 hadn’t returned to their compound for one day ……
Could it be that something has gone wrong?
Lin Qiye’s mind just rose up this idea, but was rejected, 008 team has a ‘limitless’ sitting in the town, there are also five “sea” realm of the strong, such a lineup in the Great Summer all over the night watchman team has been the absolute top, can be out of what accident?
Just as Lin Qiye was pondering, there was a faint sound of talking coming from the sofa opposite him.
Lin Qiye raised his head only to realize that Zhou Ping was looking down at his toes and mumbling something.
”Sword Saint senior, what are you talking about?” Lin Qiye asked curiously.
”I’m practicing the words to communicate with Squad 008.” Zhou Ping replied seriously.
”Word art?!”
Hearing these two words, the others lying on the sofa immediately widened their eyes, even Baili Chubby who was originally fast asleep instantly woke up and looked at Zhou Ping in shock.
Did he …… really know what discourse meant?
”…… Sword Saint senior, have you thought of what to say?” Lin Qiye asked curiously.
Zhou Ping pondered for a moment and slowly opened his mouth, “All the members of squad 008 listen up, your lives are in our hands, if you don’t come out with five people to practice against us as requested, we will tear up the tickets ……”
”……”
”No …… Sword Saint senior, we are just challenging at the door, why are you saying this line like a bandit?” Baili Chubby couldn’t help but spit out.
Zhou Ping froze, “Didn’t you guys do the same thing in Xining? And it proved to be very effective.”
”That was …… us In short, it’s not the same!”
”Where is it different? Aren’t they all door-to-door challenges?”
Baili Chubby suddenly choked in place.
The corners of Lin Qiye’s mouth twitched slightly as he vaguely felt that Zhou Ping’s socialization philosophy seemed to be moving in a very strange direction ……
He rubbed the corners of his eyes and opened his mouth to correct himself:
”Senior Sword Saint, socializing between people still requires etiquette, words like these that are obviously full of aggression should not be used in non-essential situations.”
Zhou Ping nodded thoughtfully.
”That said, since we’re going to kick off, isn’t it better to add a little bit of domineering opening remarks?” Baili Chubby looked like he had thought of something.
”Opening line?”
”Like what …… Heavenly Puff Marshal, come to kick off!”
”……” Lin Qiye’s expression was a bit odd, “Honestly, it’s a bit too lame.”
”……”
Right at this moment, the eyes of Zhou Ping, who was meditating on the side, suddenly lit up.
”Vigilant Nameless Squad, please enlighten me, gentlemen.”
