The celebration is still going on; But unexpectedly, there is no imaginary frenzy and wantonness.

The away win over the New England Patriots was arguably the San Francisco 49ers' most important and toughest win of the season, and it stands to reason that no matter how you celebrate, it's reasonable to celebrate; But in fact, the celebration in the dressing room was indeed underway, but it lacked the selfless madness that was expected.

The trough of the last few weeks can be seen as a cool-down phase, giving the team time to calm down, re-examine themselves and recalibrate their goals. A winning season? This is a rare achievement, even a historical achievement; But the Super Bowl is their goal.

Defeating the New England Patriots was an incredibly tough game, but it shouldn't be the most important achievement of the season. They can celebrate it, but they don't need to celebrate it.

Starting with a young and vigorous team, relying only on a vigor, some talent and a new idea, to gain a firm foothold in the professional league; to a team with a perfect style, form their own style of play, build their own confidence in the game, and win a place in the fierce competition; and then to a team with a mature system, with its own unique temperament, and truly become a top team.

It's a long and arduous process.

The San Francisco 49ers are only in their second phase, but the important thing is that they are still improving.

But a win is a win, a celebration is a celebration, a party is a party, and in the midst of the physical and mental exhaustion at the end of the season, in the predicament of form caused by locker room problems, in the desperate situation of a clean sheet in the first half, they beat the New England Patriots to win the victory, at least, they can celebrate it today.

It wasn't until the coaching staff entered the locker room that Jim Hubble and the rest of the coaches yelled, "Go to the ice bath when you should have an ice bath, get a massage if you should have a massage, do whatever you have to do." All the players scattered and laughed, and the celebration party came to an end for the time being.

Lu Ke came to the front of his locker, opened the cabinet, and found the equipment bag, before going to the shower, he found his mobile phone, and then found that there were a lot of unread messages inside, all of which were text messages celebrating the victory, and when he flipped through it, he could see a series of familiar or unfamiliar names.

When he first started, Lu Ke also replied seriously, expressing his gratitude one by one; But then I realized that it was too stupid, because it was almost impossible to do - for example, now, there are more than 100 unread messages, and even bulk replies are not necessary.

It is worth noting that this is Lu Ke's private mobile phone number, not given to others casually, otherwise the number of unread messages will definitely be more than that.

In the midst of the news, Lu Ke saw the news of Candace Swanepour, "You did it! ”

A celebratory text message like no other, a simple sentence, without any superfluous words, but full of unwavering trust.

In the past few weeks, although Lu Ke did not speak out, Candace could feel his tension and impetuousness, and she did not make a big fuss, but always silently supported Lu Ke, sending an email every day to report the trivial matters in her life, and did not need Lu Ke to reply, but just wrote her daily life in the email bit by bit, as if she and he were still living together, which invisibly allowed Lu Ke to relax a little.

She never questioned Lu Ke's ability. The only time she mentioned the topic was after overtime against the St. Louis Rams, she said: Bambi, you should believe in yourself. Because I always believe in you, even if everyone is questioning you, I believe you can do it. It's like this game.

She was always on his side.

The curvature of the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly, Lu Ke picked up the phone, replied with a short sentence, and then quickly slid down again, when he noticed the unfamiliar name, the movement of his fingers couldn't help but stop, and after thinking seriously for a moment, he still didn't find the answer:

Why did Emma Watson text him?

Lu Ke thought about it for a moment, and then he woke up his memory.

Before, Lu Ke and Emma participated in the recording of a talk show together, and in order to facilitate contact, the program team took the initiative to exchange the communication methods between the two of them, but that's all. Lu Ke stored Emma's phone number, but he never contacted him privately, there were no text messages or phone calls, and he even forgot that he had Emma's contact information until now.

"Congratulations! Nice victory! ”

Emma wrote on the text message without too many additional remarks, and Lu Ke hesitated: Should he give a response politely?

The problem is that they are not friends, they are just colleagues, and even work is a one-time thing. How should he reply?

Thinking back to the past few unpleasant times they got along, now that the other party has taken the initiative to extend an olive branch, whether it is a social occasion greeting or not, he should also be polite and show his demeanor as a state of etiquette, so he also raised his hand to reply. In order to avoid causing more misunderstandings and disputes, the reply should be as concise as possible.

After all the text messages were browsed, Lu Ke finally opened the address book and found a name. From the beginning, he specifically looked for his mobile phone, hoping to send a text message before entering the recovery treatment, after finding the target, he edited the text message, clicked send, and put the mobile phone in the locker again, and then Lu Ke was ready to relax after the game.

……

San Francisco General Hospital.

The common room was full of jubilation, everyone cheered and celebrated, and some people couldn't cheer to their heart's content, so they banged on the table with their hands and made a clanging sound to join the party. It's hard to imagine that a rugby win is even more effective than ten hours of treatment by a psychiatrist.

Kate-iggins, a professional rehabilitator, stood at the door of the break room, exuding a helpless look and shaking her head slightly, she really couldn't understand this matter at all, but ...... There are so many people who like rugby, maybe there is always a reason, but she doesn't care.

Generally speaking, the number of female rehabilitation therapists is still relatively small, because there is a lot of strength training in the rehabilitation process, and many patients are unable to exert strength at all, or even unable to stand steadily, and it is very likely that the weight of the whole body will fall down, which undoubtedly requires more pressure for women.

But in fact, female rehabilitation therapists still exist, not only for female patients, sometimes, male patients with relatively minor conditions will also be handed over to female rehabilitation therapists, mainly according to the specific situation of each patient.

Previously, Ryan Baldwin's rehabilitation was always in charge of another male rehabilitator, but Ryan's situation was more special, he was not completely paralyzed, more because the failure of muscle motor function could not be stopped, so Ryan's rehabilitation exercise was also different, in addition to daily walking, standing, etc., there were also auxiliary exercises such as holding a pen, writing, drawing, reading, etc., and better communication and adjustment were also needed.

A month ago, Kate took over Ryan's case from a colleague and began to take charge of Ryan's day-to-day rehabilitation. Who knew that rugby is now part of her job?

Waited and waited, but the celebration party didn't seem to have an end in sight, Kate finally couldn't wait any longer and came to Ryan, "Ryan, we agreed that we will start rehabilitation after the game is over." Now, the time for rehabilitation is about to begin. ”

Ryan still had a big smile on his face and cheered loudly, "Kate! We won! We won! ”

"Yes, yes, I know." Kate reluctantly said yes, "But today's rehabilitation must still be completed." ”

"Of course! Of course! Ryan didn't mind, nodding cheerfully in the affirmative, "Let's go now!" At this moment, the mobile phone in his arms vibrate, and Ryan motioned to Kate, "Mobile, I'll just look at the phone, soon, ten seconds...... No, no, five seconds is fine. ”

Kate didn't stop Ryan.

For amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, it's important to keep your muscles as active as possible in your daily life, and if Ryan is willing to play with his phone and text, it can also be considered a form of rehabilitation, like writing a diary by hand.

Ryan turned on his phone, and then saw a text message from Lu Ke, "I'm keeping my promise, how is it, are you ready?" ”

"Hah!" Involuntarily, Ryan laughed happily, closed his phone, and looked up at Kate, "Now, I'm ready, we can start today's rehabilitation." ”

"What, don't you need to reply to a text message?" Kate asked curiously, and the two of them walked towards the rehab room with one question and one answer.

……

Emma Watson is chagrined. Or rather, regret.

She couldn't believe herself, she actually sent a text message in a moment's time, such a little girl is so proactive and so naïve and childish is really stupid!

Now, even she couldn't tell whether she was looking forward to Lu Ke replying to the text message, or not replying to the text message, the contradictory mood could not be described in words, all kinds of ideas began to sprout in her mind, the more she thought about it, the more complicated it became, the more excited she became, and then she couldn't sit still, she simply stood up and circled back and forth in the room, like ants on a hot pot.

"Ding Dong", the sound of the arrival of the text message rang out.

All of Emma's movements froze suddenly, and she subconsciously wanted to pick up the phone, but then she thought about it, but she felt that she couldn't be too excited, otherwise it would be cheap. So, she stood still, adjusted her breathing, and counted in her mind for ten seconds, and then walked to the bedside, picked up her phone and began to read the text messages.

"Thank you."

What the?

Emma could barely believe her eyes, there were only two words so short? "Thank you"? This...... What kind of reply is this?

She had just been there for thirty minutes before she finally got such a reply?
