"Well~"

“kenteris!”

“kenteris!”

“…”

Athens time, at 22:40 pm, Athens time, Olympic Stadium.

When the eight players of the men's 200-meter race entered the stadium, the booing and the huge noise of shouting the same name broke out completely in the stadium.

In the previous few games, the local Athenian audiences on site had already begun to have sporadic dissonance. When the last game came, all the negative emotions they had accumulated were completely released at this moment.

The strong shouting, accompanied by curses and boos, screams, the stadium with six or seventy thousand people present was completely filled with this sound, and it was lifted up the ceiling.

The referees and the on-site staff were frowning, their work could not be carried out, and the athletes could not hear any instructions at all under such circumstances. It was estimated that even if the call was made, it would be difficult to distinguish, and the game could only be forced to be suspended.

On the runway, Yang Zuyao, who walked from the passage to his position, couldn't help feeling a little depressed, and this scene also made him feel a little ridiculous.

The coach also told him the situation. He roughly knew that some sporadic situations had happened a few days ago, and later there seemed to be no movement as the competition began. When the coach mentioned it again today, they thought the coach was worried. They thought the matter had passed, but they did not expect that the Greeks would leave all their emotions here.

Fortunately, the coach has always been here, so he has made up his mind and made him somewhat mentally prepared. Also, his teammates have also relaxed their spirits when they come to chat with him. Otherwise, it would be difficult to avoid being affected in this situation.

The game was interrupted, but Yang Zuyao kept in mind the coach's instructions. He did not stop his preparations. He tried hard to block these irritating voices. The game was finally about to compete.

At night, the temperature has gradually decreased. After putting down your belongings, Yang Zuyao also began to move his body. He kept his body active at any time and could not let his body cool down.

While doing some fixed activities, his thoughts also started to rotate. Thinking of the situations he had remembered, the many temporary drug tests they had experienced in the past year, and the name they are calling out by the audience now.

Maybe it's really an accident, maybe...

Since you are called a national hero, you must have the responsibility. Regardless of accident or not, you are no longer representing yourself. What a national hero has is that will and the kind of integrity. How can all this be explained by an accident?

Rather than saying that these people are venting their dissatisfaction with the Olympic Committee and the IAAF, it is ridiculous. It is better to say that it is because the spirit they put in their hearts is gone. Isn’t this a kind of sorrow?

After shook his head hard, Yang Zuyao did not think about this anymore and meticulously started his last pre-match activity.

...

On the side of the field,

Several coaches of the Chinese national team were a little confused at this time. After looking at each other, they looked at each other even more. It was really a matter of coach Lin talking! They couldn't help but turn their eyes to Lin Mu.

The sound at the scene was too loud, and it was hard to hear each other's words, so Lin Mu did not reply to them. In fact, he didn't want to speak at this moment. Looking at Yang Zuyao in the venue and listening to these noisy shouts, he felt a little complicated and inexplicable.

The sound never stopped for a moment, and the huge sounds shocked people couldn't help but tremble. In Europe, boos happen from time to time on the football field, but it is really rare to see it like this, and it is even rare to see it on the track and field. This invisibly put a lot of pressure on these track and field athletes who have never experienced all this personally.

Before, he mentioned some possibilities with the people in the team, and he also recalled his past memories. But the scene that was so impressive in the present world really appeared in front of him, and he still felt a little sad.

Greece's 200m sprinter, the winner of the stunning run at the Sydney Olympics and the miracle winner, Consdante Kentris, was disqualified from participating because he missed a drug test before the Olympics...

The specific reason is whether it is a real escape or a real accident, it is actually not important. The result of the fact is that this is harm.

It is the greatest harm to those who are willing to shout for Kentris at the top of their voices.

Lin Mu didn't agree with their venting methods, but it didn't prevent him from understanding.

On August 18, 2008, the last minute of his life in his previous life. When he looked at the person who was leaving the scene in the TV, he had no less depression at that moment. At that moment, he had the urge to destroy the world. Although the two are different in nature, the results they caused are so similar, but the objects of the final venting are different.

"Coach Lin, the Greeks are..."

A few minutes passed, maybe it was the soothing effect, or maybe the audience finally vented some of their emotions. The voices at the scene finally became smaller, and at this time Yu Weili leaned closer and said something. After just saying a little, he didn't know how to continue. He shook his head slowly.

Ordinary people may only see bans and protests, but for those of them who have been working hard for track and field, they can experience more.

China has encountered such a situation. The swimming teams in the 1980s and the middle- and long-distance running in the early 1990s. Even though the information was not as developed as it is now, the whole country was filled with grief in a short period of time.

This is not a question of whether to participate in a game or not. This is the belief they have always supported has collapsed!

"Guide Yu, his emotions have been almost vented, and the game is about to begin."

Lin Mu didn't express any opinion, and he still said the same thing, but it didn't hinder his understanding. The game is more important!

"Oh! OK, watching the game has nothing to do with us!"

"Xiao Yang's fight..."

...

Another two or three minutes passed, and the game finally began. It was not until this time that the commentary teams from various countries could start working normally.

"The competition is about to start over, the athletes are preparing for the pre-match. The booing at the scene has become smaller, and it seems that the athletes have been affected somewhat..."

On the runway,

After the referee signaled, the athletes began to adjust their final state.

There is still a fixed competition process, pre-match preparation, introduction of athletes, and final preparation, but this time, these procedures seem very sloppy. Even introduction of athletes is passed by, because cheers are no longer greeted, which makes all athletes a little depressed.

Time is advancing, and the last process is completed. On the large screen of the Olympic Stadium, a list of eight players in the final appeared.

First, Frank Fredericks, Namibia;

The second route, Francis Obicvelu, Portugal;

The third route, Bernard Williams, United States;

Fourth, Sean Crawford, United States;

The fifth way, Yang Zuyao, China;

Sixth Road, Justin Gatling, United States;

The seventh road, Stefan Bucklan, Mauritius;

The eighth road, Asafa Powell;

...

“on    your    marks!”

The referee checked the athlete's preparations and couldn't wait to send a signal to the commander. The commander's order to take place was issued.

In the current international competition, after each lane starting position, there is a loudspeaker specially prepared for athletes to start orders. The commander's instructions and simulated gun body are sent from this small speaker. In the past, everyone thought that the settings that were common and used to play a particularly large role at this moment.

The audience at the scene, including those outside the field who were watching the broadcast at the moment, could hardly hear the referee's command clearly, but they just watched the athletes on the track start to prepare for their position in a noise.

Then, without any warning, the eight athletes raised their hips in an orderly manner and prepared to start.

It was also at this time that the Athenian audience could see that it was about to start, and suddenly another huge boo broke out, causing the athletes who were preparing to start on the track to tremble in their hearts.

"Beep~"

When Yang Zuyao forcibly blocked the noise outside and was about to listen to the starting gun, a whistle came from behind him, pause?

"...The game begins! Uh, the whistle sounds, the game is interrupted, let's take a look... Oh, the eight-way Jamaican player Asafa Powell signaled to the referee that he gave up the game...

Maybe it was because his body was wrong, or maybe it was because he was in the eighth road, and the scene had a great impact on him. The fifth place in the men's 100-meter competition in this Olympics, Jamaica's new sprinter Asafa Powell withdrew from the final of the 200-meter competition... This game was full of twists and turns, and the competition is about to start again..."

The commentator's voice could not be heard by the people on the scene, but everyone's voices were almost exactly the same. This was even more so for the athletes on the field. This game was really irritating.

Yang Zuyao stood up again, took a breath, adjusted his breathing, and slowly moved his wrists and ankles. He was just ready to go, and he had already entered the competition state. Now he had to adjust his breathing again, and he also needed to soothe his lower muscles and do it again.

Maybe he was mentally prepared, maybe he had experienced even greater twists and turns, but at this time he felt quite calm. Last year's World Championships started three times, and it seemed that he had all his thoughts had come.

"It really takes some experience, and it also requires more heart! Coach, is that right?"

"Run well!"

After gradually clearing the thoughts in his mind, Yang Zuyao let go of his gaze and looked into the distance.

The orange-red runway, the curved track, extends forward again, and in the stands there, the shadowy red is swaying. In the disorderly stadium, the sounds made there are now drowned out invisible, but the belief brought to him by the red has never dissipated.

“on    your    marks!”

The order to be in place was issued again.

“Set!”

The launcher's preparation sounded.

Maybe I was really tired, or maybe the live broadcast was busy with persuasion, and the noise this time was obviously much smaller than before.

"Bang!"

The gunshots of the game sounded.

Yang Zuyao almost kept his concentration, and he rushed out instantly at the beginning of the gunshot.

His starting line was not affected too much by the previous ones, and Yiran ran his normal results. However, other athletes were obviously affected by a lot, and the starting reaction time was generally slow. On the contrary, Crawford, who had no quick reactions in the rematch and semi-finals, ran a good starting efficiency this time.

The fastest starter was American athletes Bernard Williams, and Yang Zuyao and Crawford were slightly behind and ranked second and third, while Stefan Buckland in the seventh lane may be closer to the audience, and his starting reaction was at the end of the seven finalists, which was close to 0.3, which was the worst rare in any of his previous competitions.

This is the 200m final. No matter how fast the starting reaction is, all the players just started their starting rhythm after being grateful or upset.

The contestants ran quickly on the track, only taking a break at the audience, blinking. The process in the field had been pushed over dozens of meters.

Thirty meters, forty meters, fifty meters...

“It’s really different…”

Running wildly on the track, Yang Zuyao had already shown all the starting speed strength he could control compared to the semi-finals. He had even felt the long-lost inconsistency. He was almost on the verge of the limit.

But he still felt a slight pressure coming from behind him.
To be continued...
