Extra 3 Chapter 376 – Ghost Vice-Captain (1): Su Yu Extra

In the vening, Su Guangmo sat in front of the computer and quickly tapped the keyboard. The side character in the game waved the giant sword in his hand, made a handsome turn and successfully slashed at the bloody opponent. The opponent fell to the ground and Su Guangmo placed the cigarette in his mouth in the ashtray on the table. He was heading to the kitchen for food when he heard a knock on the door.

He opened the door and saw Captain Song Yang standing at the door. Su Guangmo respectfully spoke, “Master, you were looking for me?”

Song Yang was the one who found his talent and was someone Su Guangmo greatly respected. When he was young, he was too arrogant and his first interview with the Flying Feathers team wasn’t smooth. Fortunately, Song Yang saw his talent and accepted him as an apprentice on the spot.

After training in the Flying Feathers team for two months, Su Guangmo’s current level could compete with the team’s first-tier players. Song Yang had decided to let him go out next season. Recently, Flying Feathers had been busy with their matches and Song Yang hadn’t found him for a long time. That’s why Su Guangmo was very surprised by Song Yang appearing at the door of his dormitory today.

The even more surprising thing was Song Yang’s words. “I have received another apprentice today and brought him to meet him. He is Yu Pingsheng and he will later be your younger apprentice brother. I am usually busy and you should take care of him.”

Su Guangmo looked around Song Yang in a confused manner. “Younger brother? Where?”

“Here.” There was a weak voice from behind Song Yang and Yu Pingsheng emerged. Su Guangmo discovered that this person was relatively short and thin. The tall and strong Song Yang completely blocked his body.

Su Guangmo bowed his head and examined this person carefully. He unexpectedly found that this younger brother was actually very good-looking. The youth’s appearance was delicate and his black eyes were bright. His age wasn’t obvious and his face was full of tenderness and innocence. He seemed a bit shy at Su Guangmo’s gaze and hid behind their master again, not letting Su Guangmo see him anymore.

“Oh, my younger brother also has stealth skills.” Su Guangmo joked. “Why is he gone again?”

Yu Pingsheng’s face was extremely red but Song Yang just smiled. “Xiao Yu’s personality isn’t like you. He is awkward and isn’t fond of talking to people. I have arranged for him to live with you. After becoming brothers, you have to take care of him.”

“No problem. Master, you can rest assured!” Su Guangmo patted his chest and promised.

“Then I will go first. Flying Feathers has a match in a few days and I have to prepare the tactical arrangement. I will hold a meeting in the conference room at 8:30 in the morning. You two, come and sit in.”

“Yes Master, go first if you’re busy!” He bid farewell to his master and Su Guangmo couldn’t help laughing as he gazed at the dazed teenager in front of him. “Younger Brother, come in. You will live next door to me.”

He enthusiastically helped Yu Pingsheng bring his suitcase in. He didn’t notice that Yu Pingsheng had a stiff back and pale face when he approached.

At that time, Su Guangmo didn’t know that Yu Pingsheng was someone with a communication disorder and it was a very serious psychological problem. He simply thought that Yu Pingsheng’s personality was more introverted.

***

Su Guangmo had always been bold and this person was brought over by Master Song Yang. He soon regarded Yu Pingsheng as a good buddy. After all, he would be teammates with Yu Pingsheng and teammates should be in harmony. How could they play the game if they were fighting?

At this time, Su Guangmo had a young man’s heart. His way of being good to people was simple. He helped Yu Pingsheng place the suitcase in the bedroom and carefully washed a plate of fruit. He peeled an orange and handed it to Yu Pingsheng. “Come, eat an orange first.”

Yu Pingsheng gazed at the orange in front of him, face red with embarrassment. It was like he was being forced to take medicine. After a while, he stiffly reached for the orange and gently placed it on the table. “Thank you, I will eat it later.”

Su Guangmo was stunned. This expression obviously showed Yu Pingsheng disliked it?

He kindly gave fruit to the other person only to have cold water poured on his head. Su Guangmo had a straightforward personality. He was somewhat unhappy and frowned, “If you don’t like it then don’t eat. Don’t force yourself.”

“No, I don’t dislike it.” Yu Pingsheng explained shyly. He placed a peeled orange into his mouth and slowly chewed, his expression truly showing what it meant by ‘chewing wax.’ Su Guangmo laughed at the sight. He suddenly felt that this person was quite interesting. Eating an orange was like tasting medicine. Yu Pingsheng obviously didn’t like it but he still ate it silently.

Yu Pingsheng ate the orange for a full 10 minutes. Su Guangmo sat there and appreciated his expression. After finishing, Su Guangmo wondered with a funny smile, “Is it delicious?”

“Yes, very delicious.” Yu Pingsheng gave a grudging smile.

“Then I’ll peel another one for you.” Yu Pingsheng saw Su Guangmo about to peel the orange again and immediately became pale. His expression looked like Su Guangmo was giving him poison.

Su Guangmo couldn’t help laughing. “Brother, you are too interesting, hahaha! If you don’t want to eat then don’t eat. I won’t force you. Why are you making that expression? Hahaha!”

Yu Pingsheng, “…”

It turned out he was being deliberately teased. Yu Pingsheng’s face was slightly red as he whispered, “I-I’m not very talkative.”

Su Guangmo smiled and patted his younger brother’s shoulder. “It’s fine. E-sports players don’t need to say much. It is enough if you play well. Let’s go, I will take you to visit the Flying Feathers team.”

Yu Pingsheng had a psychological problem but Su Guangmo’s enthusiasm made him unable to refuse. He had to stiffly follow behind Su Guangmo as he was introduced to the environment of the Flying Feathers team.

The conditions of the Flying Feathers team wasn’t bad. There was a spacious and bright training room with two rows of computers side by side. Su Guangmo took Yu Pingsheng to the second row and explained, “This is the area for us newcomers. We usually just do training. The front row is for the main players and we shouldn’t bother them. They are preparing for the competition recently and their pressure is quite big. You will sit at the computer next to me and just ask if you have any questions.”

Yu Pingsheng nodded and said, “Yes.”

Su Guangmo took him next door. “This is the conference room which can accommodate more than 20 people. Master’s usual tactical discussion meetings are held here. Tomorrow morning, everyone will meet here at 8:30 to discuss the next match. When you come to listen to the tactical arrangement, it is best to prepare a book to write down some of Master’s key contents. If you go back and think about it, this will help your tactical awareness.”

Yu Pingsheng nodded again. “Yes.”

Su Guangmo smiled at him. “Are you only going to say yes?”

Yu Pingsheng’s eyes were a bit uneasy and he hung his head like he made a mistake. “I-I’m not very talk…”

Su Guangmo was helpless. “Okay, I know. Then keep saying ‘yes’ if you understand.”

“Yes.”

Su Guangmo, “…”

Who was this? Even a three year old child didn’t find it so hard to express themselves?

Su Guangmo was dutifully doing his duty as the Flying Feathers guide. The result was that Yu Pingsheng finally only said ‘Yes’ after a long time, making Su Guangmo really anxious for him. However, he saw the uneasy Yu Pingsheng look like a small animal lost in the forest and Su Guangmo’s heart softened. He couldn’t bear to force Yu Pingsheng to continue and took him to the dining room.

***

After going around the Flying Feathers team once, Su Guangmo drew a floor plan for his younger brother and then took him back to the dormitory, also teaching him how to use the hot water in the bathroom.

From beginning to end, Yu Pingsheng only spoke a few words like ‘yes’, ‘okay’, ‘thank you.’ His longest sentence was ‘I’m not very talkative’. Su Guangmo resisted the urge to laugh and arranged everything for him before turning back to the bedroom.

In fact, Yu Pingsheng wasn’t ‘not talkative’. He found it ‘repulsive’ to talk to people.

He had been diagnosed with autism as a child. Three-quarters of children with autism had an intellectual disability but Yu Pingsheng belonged to the one-quarter that was very smart. However, he wasn’t interested in any toys and rarely looked at people, let alone communicate with them.

After his parents noticed the abnormality, the three year old Yu Pingsheng was taken to the hospital. The doctor diagnosed him with autism. After a period of treatment, his situation improved but the long-term lack of communication couldn’t be reversed. Even in his teens, he still liked to be alone.

He never had a friend since he was a child. Every time he communicated with others, he felt it was particularly difficult. If someone other than his parents approached him, he would be stiff and frightened.

From a young age, his best friend was the computer.

Last year, he started playing Miracle by chance. He didn’t need to communicate with people so he gained more and more energy from the game. His level leapt by a huge amount. Unexpectedly, he met the president of the Flying Feathers Guild in an instance of the online game. The president discovered his talent and invited him to the Flying Feathers team as an e-sports player.

He was afraid to accept this invitation. How could he communicate with his teammates? How could he play a team game?

Then his parents learnt about it and hoped he would try it. His mother gently told him that he couldn’t go on like this. Parents would always leave first and once that happened, he would be left alone. Did he want to die alone?

Yu Pingsheng knew that his mother’s words were very reasonable and raised the courage to come to the Flying Feathers team.

Fortunately, Captain Song Yang had a good temper and could accommodate any player with a flawed personality as long as their level was sufficient.

Yu Pingsheng’s level of playing the game was very high and he soon gained Song Yang’s appreciation. Song Yang accepted him as an apprentice and handed him over to his fellow apprentice brother, Su Guangmo.

Unlike Yu Pingsheng’s introverted self, Su Guangmo was straightforward and heart. He might not be very old but he had a man’s pride. Despite the stiff Yu Pingsheng, Su Guangmo took good care of him, taking him around the entire Flying Feathers team and settling him properly.

Yu Pingsheng lay on his bed after showering. His mother sent him a message asking about the team. Yu Pingsheng considered it for a long time before finally writing seriously, “I have an apprentice brother called Su Guangmo. He is a very good person.”
