139 Picking up the mess

Everything was silent, silent, only the whistling sound of the wind lingered in my ears. The chaotic sound of the players' rapid breathing could be captured from afar, but it further highlighted the shock and astonishment next to the training ground. The nervousness and anxiety were surging rapidly uncontrollably.

"...Aqi?" Augustus called out with a worried look on his face, but he didn't know where to start with thousands of words and thoughts:

Richard Gison, a member of the school board and a local dishwasher tycoon in Kansas, has made the way with money and his power in the state cannot be underestimated.

Perhaps, looking at North America, Richard is not a big shot at all. Even in Kansas, he is not a shocking giant crocodile. But for a small coach like Lu Yiqi, he is still not a person who can be easily provoked. The gap is obvious.

But now, Lu Yiqi...is this certainly okay?

"I have no choice. I have some bottom line, I have to stick to it." Faced with Augustus' concerns, Lu Yiqi gave his own answer.

He understands the consequences of his actions, but some things must be persisted in-

Judging from Richard's attitude, what he cares about is not the truth, but the revenge and strike for Jacob. It is unrealistic to punish the players who caused the accident on a large scale; the greatest possibility is to hold the core responsible person accountable and use the method of killing the chicken to scare the monkey to let Richard vent his anger. Then, Walker is likely to become a scapegoat.

Even if it wasn't Walker, he might be some player tangled with Jacob in the center.

Richard doesn't care what happened, who did it, and he doesn't care about the truth. His purpose is just to "protect" Jacob; and the school is likely to sacrifice one or two players instead of controversy to calm Richard's anger.

In other words, if Lu Yiqi did not stand up today, things might not be reversed. Sacrifice of Walker or other players is a high probability event.

No one would speak for Walker or an ordinary player, Weather and Weather would not, Pres would not, Latimer and Robert... very likely would not. Even Lu Yiqi swallowed his anger, then Walker might be in a bad situation of being isolated and helpless.

Lu Yiqi believes that at least he should stand on Walker's side and give Walker the opportunity to explain the truth.

Lu Yiqi has no way to know the truth of the matter. Maybe Walker did something wrong, but even so, he doesn't think that the player who caused the accident should be fired, at least he should not make arbitrary decisions before finding out the truth; otherwise, today it might be because Walker and Jacob had a conflict, which led to Walker being fired, and tomorrow it might be because Lu Yiqi's defensive tactics failed to allow Jacob to perform his abilities, which led to him being fired.

Such things cannot set precedents, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable.

Of course, then again, Lu Yiqi is just an interim head coach. He can fool Richard in vain, then throw the mess to Pres and Latimer, and then silently return to the position of offensive coordinator to avoid being fishy. Mingzhe protects himself.

But this is not Lu Yiqi's style.

It was this group of players who fought side by side with Lu Yiqi to win four consecutive victories, helping Lu Yiqi realize his dream of continuous efforts since his rebirth, and truly felt the glory and glory of the "head coach". But now in crisis, Lu Yiqi can't wait to get rid of the title of head coach and refuse to take on the responsibility behind the crown. He just threw away these cute players, then ignored them and chose to survive alone?

He can't do it.

Before Pres returns, as long as Lu Yiqi is still the "head coach" one day, he should open his wings to protect these players under his protection. At least, he should give them a chance to reveal the truth.

In fact, Lu Yiqi had other choices, but he chose to stand up, just like a real head coach.

Lu Yiqi's words did not relieve Augustus's concerns. The anxiety and tension completely accumulated between his tight eyebrows, which instead made Lu Yiqi's tense nerves relax - at least he knew that Augustus and Bullock were still fighting side by side with him.

"Gas, don't worry, what's the worst result? Being expelled from the school and then you can't find a coaching job in Kansas? But this country is big, with many schools in NCAA, I don't have to worry about not finding a job. Richard Giesson is not Jerry Jones."

Even at this moment, Lu Yiqi still had the heart to joke, which made Augustus speechless, and Brock also had a frightened expression on his face.

Robert, who was standing not far away, looked as if he was blushed, "Now is not the time to joke."

Lu Yiqi shrugged indifferently, "What, are you worried that I will be fired?"

"I wish you were fired!" Robert said angrily, but then he felt that his expression was too hostile, so he added, "But I don't want to see that in this way. He should not interfere in the team's affairs."

At this moment, a irritable roar came from behind, "Noah! Are you crazy?"

It wasn't Wifald or Weather, nor Richard's return, and it could be heard from the sound that Isaac Burns went wild again.

"Resume training! Resume training! Do you really don't understand which word means? Players have just experienced intense competitions and cannot do such intense training! How long have they been running now? When I arrived at the office, I saw them running. Why are they still running now?"

"How many laps have you done? Ah? Such training intensity is not appropriate! They need to warm up first, then stretch, and then start to resume jogging! You are no longer a frizzy boy who doesn't know anything. How could they be so unprofessional to train so hard?"

"We shouldn't be on the intensity today! Stop! Let them all stop! Noah! Noah? Are you listening to me?"

Isaac kept talking like an old hen, and his footsteps were not approaching, and he was always wandering beside the court, but his voice was constantly echoing like a magic sound that filled his brain. The endless words were whispering over and over again, emphasizing the same thing, but not tired at all.

Until now, Isaac is still watching the players from afar and has not come close.

Augustus couldn't help but be amused by Isaac - it was really that the scene at this moment was too absurd. Isaac had created a strong gap, and then he couldn't help laughing and said to Lu Yiqi, "Aren't you going to stop him? I think he can say it for twenty minutes."

"It's only twenty minutes? Gas, you underestimate Isaac too much." Lu Yiqi calmed down and made a joke.
