Chapter 232: Commitment between men

Aldrich, who has been traveling around Europe since childhood, is used to loneliness, but after "walking thousands of miles", he grew up to be 21 years old, but encountered the first time in his life.
robbery!
Rome, Italy.
Summer has arrived, but Aldridge is still dressed in a suit and leather shoes, carrying a small and large travel bag on the streets of Rome, and occasionally looking down at the address on the note in his hand.
The weather was slightly hot. He stood on the corner of the street, put down his travel bag, took out a tissue from his pocket and wiped the sweat on his forehead. Some regretted not having taken a taxi, because he came to Italy by train. Walk for a while to exercise.
Ideas are always good, but he ignored the hot weather.
Just when he was hesitant to have a taxi less than two kilometers away, on this street with few pedestrians, someone suddenly rushed over behind him, swiftly passing him while passing him. Take away his travel bag.
Aldridge's head was suddenly stunned, and then he went conditionedly.
The kid who grabs his bag looks young and not fast, Aldridge is full of confidence: our physical fitness has nothing to say, 100 meters burst your three streets! Running a marathon can exhaust your nine lives!
But as soon as his head was hot, the handsome man rushed into the backstreet with the robber boy. The road was narrow and no one was there. Aldrich just rushed in and ran less than ten meters. The boy in front stopped. And, turning around, Aldridge felt uncomfortable and hurriedly turned and ran out. As a result, the sight he saw made him helplessly give up resistance.
As expected, they were teamed up to rob him.
One after another, two people sandwiched him, and a knife appeared in his hand.
Grass!
He had forgotten that although this is not Sicily, the street crime rate has always been staggering.
Surrender.
Aldrich's calves were a little soft. I was really afraid that the stunned robber would stab the knife, so I would simply do it myself and directly surrender my hands with high hands.
The two young robbers held the knife in one hand and asked Aldridge to take out his wallet and take off his watch. He didn't even ask him for a mobile phone. He probably didn't see it or planned to grab it. After all, this gadget is quick to change, popularizes quickly, and the street goods are cheap.
"Brother Mafia, give me a little face, you take the money, leave me your ID and wallet, how?"
Aldridge finished speaking in English, and found that the two boys seemed to not understand, and hurried to say it again in Italian, but before he finished, the two boys took his wallet, put on his watch, and carried He ran away after pulling his leg in his travel bag.
"Asshole!"
Aldrich chased two steps symbolically, and then walked out of the street dejectedly. He sat alone on the side of the road with a bit of misfortune, stroking his head with one hand and thinking about what to do next.
Call the police?
is that useful?
Now that I have no money, I still take out my phone for help.
He took out his phone and thought about who to call, family? It must have been turned upside down, making it impossible for all family members to rush to Rome to "consolate" him.
You can't make things bigger.
Find a friend for help.
When he was about to dial Brady's phone, he noticed that there was one more person beside him. He turned his head and looked at him, just opposite his eyes. Their expressions were slightly surprised.
"Mr. Hall?"
"De Rossi! I'm so bitter looking for you!"
Aldridge wanted to cry without tears.
The teenager with a surprised look standing beside him was exactly what he was looking for in this trip to Rome: Daniele De Rossi.
Two years ago, the two had a relationship. Originally, De Rossi's father and son did not take Aldridge seriously, and felt that this young man was crazy.
Unexpectedly, in two years, Millwall won not only the championship in the Premier League, but also a blockbuster in Europe.
The most important thing is that under the leadership of Aldrich, Zambrotta, Materazzi, Pirlo and Gattuso all four Italian players have grown up. Tony is not yet successful, but the introduction of five Italian players can Playing four, this is already an incredible thing, while reflecting the ability of Aldridge.
As a result, De Rossi's father and son began to pay attention to Aldridge, especially De Rossi, who was fascinated by Millwall's football.
Aldridge couldn't help crying. He was originally looking for De Rossi, but he was robbed on the way. After being robbed, De Rossi appeared in front of him as if he had fallen from the sky.
What magic is this?
"Uh, why are you here?"
Aldridge asked the ghostly messenger, seeming unbelievable.
De Rossi pointed to the distance and said, "My home is over there. I walk on the way home. I will appear here almost every day."
Aldridge blinked and sighed.
"what happened to you?"
Aldridge sat down a bit shamefully and said embarrassedly: "I was robbed."
De Rossi sat down next to him and shrugged: "It's normal. If you have a few companions, the chance of being robbed in a place with few people will not be too high. Do you need my help?"
"What can you do for me? Call the police? Forget it, I don't want to go to the police station, it's just a walk through."
De Rossion looked up to the sky and said leisurely: "What have you been robbed?"
"Travel bags and wallets, and watches. Money doesn't matter. I just want the ID and the credit card in the wallet. By the way, I almost forgot. After waiting for me, I will call to freeze my card."
Aldridge immediately called the bank and frozen several cards in his wallet.
"If you only want a certificate, the problem is not big. If it is something of no value, it depends on luck to come back."
"Why is it luck?"
"It may have been thrown away because it is not valuable."
"Do you know the robber here?"
"Well, so to speak, borrow your phone and use it."
Aldrich obediently handed the phone to De Rossi. After dialing the phone, the other person spoke for a long time, and finally returned the phone to Aldridge. He said, "Now, wait."
Aldridge looked away, and finally returned to De Rossi. After a moment of observation, he smiled and said: "In the past two years, you have grown up a lot, hehe, you have become a talented person. Unlike when you met the previous year, it was obviously still Children."
De Rossi also stared at Aldridge and asked: "Mr. Hall, I am curious. Why did you want me to join your team when I was a child in your mouth? Your team obviously needs it. It's a player of the year."
Aldridge sighed: "But I can't afford the star, I can only train the star myself, maybe you don't believe that when you were a kid, a video of you playing in the Rome community team was already placed in me It’s on my desk. I have an agent’s brother, and you’ve seen it, the man who came here with me the year before last, he searched for geniuses around the world, and you are one of the people he discovered, I think you have talent , Optimistic about your future, so I want to take you to London, and become a leader of Millwall when you grow up."
De Rossi's eyes widened unbelievably: "Do you want me to be the captain?"
Aldridge waved his hand and said: "This is not necessarily because the captain is not judged in terms of strength in a certain sense. It must have many qualities, such as team influence, unity, appeal, fighting spirit, and style. Yes, strength is not the standard. What I mean by a leader is to say, er, according to your age, after about seven or eight years, you become a benchmark for players of the same age. Others aim to surpass you in order to be able to It’s roughly what you mean to be proud of your strength, but it also has a certain leadership role."
De Rossito asked with his chin: "You just like me that way?"
"Don't you have the confidence to be a great player yourself?"
"Oh, I dream about it, but someone tells me this way, which makes me feel new. Mr. Hall, I think you are amazing."
Aldrich used to be praised by others, but being praised in person by young De Rossi made him feel awkward.
He laughed twice and asked, "Why do you say that? The Italian media still mocked me two years ago."
De Rossi said lightly: "Two years, two years, you won the trophy won by Millwall, half of the total number of trophies in Rome's 70-year history."
Aldridge scratched his head, a little embarrassed.
With 70 years of history in Rome today, there are only two league champions, seven domestic cup champions, plus an Expo Cup champion, the predecessor of the UEFA Cup.
Although Aldrich's five championship trophies, the League Cup appears insignificant, but the FA Cup and the Premier League and the European Cup Winners' Cup for two consecutive years are all rich in gold.
"Alas, this is nothing. The media outside the UK say that England is less competitive. Like Millwall won the championship, it just shows the decline of the traditional giants of England, not how strong we are."
"Really? Manchester United reached the Champions League semi-finals last season. Millwall's European Winners Cup semi-finals eliminated the European quarter-final regular Paris Saint-Germain and beat Barcelona in the final. I have watched these few games. Millwall is very strong, and the game is very passionate, making people bloody."
Aldridge turned his eyes and asked tentatively: "Are you interested in coming to Millwall for football training now?"
De Rossi turned his head to stare at him, and said with a smile: "Do you just want me to go to London for football training?"
Aldridge's expression is depressed, this kid is a big kid, very fine.
"Ah, to be honest, I came to you today just to let you join the Millwall youth team. As long as you want, I will give you a professional contract when you are 16 years old. As long as you want, Millwall will be in the future. With your place, you can retire from Millwall as long as you want..."
At the end, Aldridge's face became a little sad.
De Rossi asked curiously: "What's wrong?"
Aldridge sighed: "I hope to make Millwall a super giant, but many players don't have this patience and confidence. What I can give them will never be stingy, but every year, there will always be people Leaving me, my mood is like, um, I spent my time buying food and making a table in the kitchen, waiting for the beloved girl to taste it together. As a result, the girl came and said to me: Thank you. Then invite me Leaving, she invited other men to enjoy food with her..."
Poof, ha ha ha ha.
De Rossi was teased and laughed wildly.
Aldridge looked at the clouds in the sky with his chin, and said: Who can accompany me to the end?
Now thinking about this question, there will be no answer. The only answer lies in the hands of time.
De Rossi patted his and stood up, said to Aldridge: "Mr. Hall, um, I decided, I will go to Millwall, are you thirsty? I invite you to drink a bottle of water, when you have money, Please give me a big meal."
Aldridge was stunned. When De Rossi went across the road to buy a drink in the shop opposite, he recovered and opened his arms and shouted: "Hey, boy, you can't regret it! This is a promise between men. what!"
He was really afraid that this kid was teasing him.
De Rossi turned around and frowned, "Don't be so silly! Don't worry, I'm not kidding you. You are someone who has just been robbed. Don't mention the word man?"
Aldridge petrified instantly, speechless.
