Fox in the Penalty Area

Hibeles, the goddess of harvest carved from marble, sat on a four-wheeled chariot pulled by two majestic male lions, who raised their front paws and were stepping forward.

The goddess on the chariot is dignified and majestic.

Han Shuyu looked at this sculpture and remembered everyone's evaluation of it - this is the most beautiful statue in Madrid.

She couldn't agree more.

At this moment, Han Shuyu was standing on the sidewalk beside the road, looking at the Hibeles Fountain in the center of the street.

Cars kept passing in front of her, running over the asphalt, making rustling noises.

In front of her is the Goddess of Harvest Square.

Said to be a square, it is actually a fountain in the center of the street. In addition to its decorative function, the practical function of this fountain is a traffic turntable.

Cars coming from four directions can pass here without waiting for traffic lights, and they can drive alternately.

The so-called "square" is actually a crossroad where four roads meet.

If it wasn't for the garbage on the ground and the Madrid Pirates scarf tied around the neck of the goddess Hibeles, it would be hard to believe that this is the back and forth between the Madrid Pirates and the King of Madrid at this busy intersection. The scramble to win the title celebrates the Holy Land.

Yesterday evening, after the match between the Madrid Pirates and Catalan United, the team rushed back to Madrid by bus. By the time they arrived at the Goddess of Harvest Square, it was already one o'clock in the morning this morning.

At that time, the Plaza of the Goddess of Harvest was surrounded by tens of thousands of Pirate fans.

The square of the Goddess of Harvest only revealed its true body at this moment.

Pirates fans gathered here to sing and cheer continuously to celebrate the team's victory in La Liga this season.

The atmosphere reached its climax when the captain of the pirates, Juan Ramirez, took the elevator and tied the pirate's scarf and flag around the neck of the goddess Hibeles, representing the team.

Han Shuyu was in the crowded and noisy crowd, trying to hold up his mobile phone to record this scene.

Those exciting and somewhat chaotic scenes have all become part of her latest VLOG.

Now she has returned to the Goddess of Harvest Square again, but not to shoot any VLOG. In fact, she is not holding her phone now, talking to herself like a lunatic to the phone.

She just stood in the shadows of the buildings on the street, staring at the fountain of the goddess Hibeles in the setting sun.

You don't have to think about how to compose your shot or how to say your lines.

Just stood there in silence.

She enjoyed the free time so much, especially after such an exciting night.

There was a frolic from the next intersection.

Han Shuyu followed his reputation and found out that it turned out to be several Chinese fans. They held the five-star red flag and stood in two rows on the sidewalk, taking a group photo with the statue of the Goddess of Harvest as the background.

The phone was clipped to a tripod, and the shutter countdown should have been set.

Several people looked at the camera, and someone was directing: "I said one, two, three, and everyone gave a thumbs up! One, two, three..."

"Hu Lai is awesome!!"

"Hahaha!"

Several people spread out laughing, some people went to see how the filming was going, some people turned to look back at Goddess Hibeles, and some people waved the national flag.

When Han Shuyu saw this scene in the distance, a smile appeared on his face involuntarily.

Because she saw that some of those people were wearing kings jerseys...

When she saw this scene, there seemed to be a barrage floating in front of her eyes:

"This is the closest the Kings have come to a league title!"

I'm short of great virtue!

Then Han Shuyu was amused by his own thought.

"What laughing?"

A familiar voice sounded behind him, and Han Shuyu turned around and saw Li Qingliang.

"You're late, Li Qingliang!"

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." Li Qingliang apologized to Han Shuyu numbly.

Han Shuyu didn't really care. She pointed to the surrounded Chinese fans and told Li Qingliang what she had just seen: "They are taking a photo with the Goddess of Harvest."

"Then why don't I take a picture for you too?" Li Qingliang asked tentatively.

"Okay!" Han Shuyu took a step forward generously, turned towards the statue of the Goddess of Harvest, turned her back to the camera, and raised her right hand to make a "V".

Standard internet celebrity punch card photo styling.

Li Qingliang didn't press the shutter button while holding the phone, but stared at Han Shuyu in the viewfinder and frowned, "Your look is too cliché..."

"Conventional?" Han Shuyu looked back at Li Qingliang.

"Don't move!" Li Qingliang stopped her.

"Why?" Han Shuyu asked, but remained still.

"All right."

After Li Qingliang finished speaking, he walked up and handed the phone to Han Shuyu: "That's right."

Han Shuyu took over the phone and saw the photo Li Qingliang took of himself:

Under the gaze of Goddess Hibeles, the girl looked back, her lips slightly parted, and the setting sun was shooting from the direction she was facing, and the sun was pouring into her wide eyes.

"How's it going? Is it okay to capture it?" Li Qingliang asked for credit.

Han Shuyu nodded again and again: "It's awesome!"

Then she put away her phone: "let's go, let's eat!"

Li Qingliang looked at her strangely as she put away her phone: "You don't shoot videos?"

"Hey, today is not a VLOG of visiting the store, today is a meal to celebrate Hu Lai's victory!" Han Shuyu waved his hand forward and walked away.

Li Qingliang quickly followed with a smile.

Generally speaking, Pirates Park is quiet when there is no game, especially at the end of the season.

The stadium, which had been noisy all season, gradually quieted down, as if it had fallen into a deep sleep. Waiting for the new season to come, will wake up again.

The area outside the southwest corner of the course is even quieter, because there is a cemetery there.

But today it is very lively here.

Mantorez Alvared walked into the cemetery with a bouquet of flowers in his hand, and he was inconspicuous among those who had entered the cemetery like him.

But if Han Shuyu was there at this moment, she would be surprised to see him, because this is the uncle fan she met when she first went to the Pirate Park to watch the game.

In addition to entering the cemetery, there are also people who come out of the cemetery.

Some of them had tears on their faces, but they were smiling.

Both sad and happy.

Some of the people who came out recognized Mantorez Alvared and took the initiative to greet him.

And Alvared responded with a smile.

The originally quiet cemetery was very lively today. Alvared walked through it and saw many people standing in front of the tombstones of their relatives and whispering their hearts.

Others were carefully tying pirate blue and white scarves to tombstones.

This is not an ordinary cemetery, but a cemetery dedicated to the burial of those loyal and die-hard Pirates fans.

As Pirates fans, they want to be with their team forever, whether they live or die.

So the Pirates Club complied with public opinion and opened a cemetery in the southwest corner behind the outer wall of the team's south stand, dedicated to burying those die-hard fans.

Pirates fans who are willing to do so only need to pay a fee, and they can continue to hear the cheers from the Pirates Park stadium after death, and their souls are with their beloved team.

After the pirates won the championship, it has become a tradition for many pirates fans to come here to comfort their relatives.

Like those people, Mantores Alvared also came to comfort his relatives in the spirit of heaven.

He walked through the cemetery, which was much busier than usual, and went deep.

There is a uniquely shaped tombstone that stands out.

It was a statue of a small bust of a young girl. Her right hand was gently covering her heart, her left hand was slanted downward, her palm was spread out, and a coin was attached to her fingertips. She looked down along the coin and saw There were also two coins lying on the ground in front of the tombstone.

In front of the coin, on the pedestal of the girl sculpture, is engraved with the name of the owner of the tombstone, as well as the epitaph:

Mary Maganto Alvared

(1974-2009)

"In our hearts, you never left."

-Love you Mantores Alvared and children

Several bouquets of flowers were already placed in the open space in front of the tombstone in the shape of a girl's sculpture. Judging from the freshness of these bouquets, they should have been placed here just before Mantorres Alvared came.

Seeing this scene, Mantorez laughed: "As I said, in our hearts, you never left, Mary."

Then he also put the bouquet in his hand on the ground, took off the pirate scarf around his neck, and stepped forward and carefully tied it to the **** the tombstone.

After doing all this, he backed away and stood in front of the tombstone again, staring at the bust of the girl, as if he was looking at her.

After a while he said: "I think the people who came to give you flowers must have told you, but you must still want to hear from me again... Yes, yes, we won the league championship. "It's been five years since we last won La Liga..."

"...a lot of interesting things have happened this season. We double-played the Kings is what you want to hear the most, but yesterday's final round of the league, we beat Catalan 4-1 away was also very good. Remember when I gave The Chinese guy you're talking about? He scored a hat-trick in the game... It's incredible, it was his first La Liga season and he helped us win the La Liga title. And he himself scored 36 The goal is to be the top scorer in the league. Two goals away from the record..."

"...you're here, you can definitely hear a special cry from the pirate park...yes, that's what the big guys made together after he scored a goal. But it's not us. Invented... but learned from the British, who occasionally have interesting 'creatives'..."

"By the way, before our derby at home against the Kings, he completed the lucky coin tossing ceremony in place of captain Ramirez. As a result, he scored three goals in that game... I think it must be your spirit in the sky. Bless him? If so, continue to bless him in the future!"

Mantorez Alvared rambled on for a long time, telling his wife all the things that happened this season, as if he had "experienced" the whole season in this way.

In addition to Hu Lai, he also talked about Kyrie's injury and comeback, about the team's Champions League semi-final loss to the arch-rival King, and finally said:

"My dear, I believe that we can win the Champions League again. Yes, I have never had such a strong confidence like this before... When that day comes, I will definitely come back here to give you the good news. Now, It's time to say goodbye darling. The kids are still waiting for me at home, and we're going to have a big meal tonight to celebrate our return to the league..."

After Mantorez Alvared finished speaking, he stepped forward again, took off the scarf he tied himself, and put it on again.

Then he turned around and walked outside the cemetery~www.readwn.com~ Along the way, he saw people coming in in an endless stream, looking for the tombstones of their loved ones.

Someone offered flowers with tears in their eyes.

Someone knelt down on one knee, and murmured with their forehead against the tombstone.

When you meet someone you know on the road, you won't make a loud noise, but just nod your head slightly.

This is the cemetery in the southwest corner of Pirate Park, which carries the sorrow and joy, life and death of Pirate fans.

After Mantorez walked out of the cemetery, he glanced back at the outer wall of the stadium standing behind the cemetery.

The tall and straight outer wall seems to be the "backer" of the cemetery, sheltering the pirate fans who rest here.

The season-ending Pirates Park stadium is closed, and there are no more noise and bustling crowds.

But Mantorres could vaguely hear the wind and thunder whistling inside the outer wall.

It's like an echo of the season that just ended.
