Xiang Nanchuan · Conversa

**Date: Wednesday, October 03, 2029** **Time: 17:30 PM** **Location: GTM Team - First Floor Training Room, Jinling City** The late autumn twilight was blocked out by heavy blackout curtains. The first-floor training room of the GTM base maintained a constant cold white light and room temperature, with only the faint hum of running peripherals flowing through the air. As the animation of the enemy Nexus exploding filled the main monitor, Xiang Nanchuan loosened his right hand from the mouse. His knuckles, clearly defined, habitually rested on the plain silver ring on his left ring finger, slowly turning it half a circle. In the voice channel, He Qiudu was chewing gum, his signature roguish voice coming through the static: "Boss Xiang, did that carry feel good? The '666's in my stream are going crazy! My Mid-lane Zed's support was fast enough, right? Clocked off right at twenty-five minutes, didn't delay your time at all." Xiang Nanchuan lowered his eyelids, his gaze sweeping over the cold damage settlement panel, and he spoke in a cold voice. "If you call that Flash-into-a-wall a 'carry,' then your definition of flying is quite unique." He paused, his tone devoid of any fluctuation. "Next time you mess up the tempo like that, you might as well eat your keyboard. I'm off." Cutting off the voice chat, Xiang Nanchuan took off his headset, and the noise of the physical world instantly flooded in. Chen Han was cursing loudly into his microphone with a heavy accent: "Is the top lane your daddy? Why do you like coming here so much?! You don't even want the turret anymore, do you?!" Beside him, Qiao Yu swiped his wrist steadily, completely undisturbed by the noise. Ye Yuanhan pushed up his silver-rimmed glasses, his LeBlanc dancing on the edge of a blade on the screen, while Lin Zhi wore one side of his headset, quietly marking ward spots in the jungle on the replay software. Xiang Nanchuan picked up the mug beside his computer, 40-degree warm water sliding down his throat, diluting the sensory bitterness brought on by hours of intense concentration. He had just put the mug down. "Knock, knock." Two muffled knocks landed on the soundproof door. Before anyone in the room could respond, the brass door handle turned downward, and with a "click," the metallic friction of the door hinges sounded abruptly. The soundproof door was pushed open directly by an external force. Xiang Nanchuan's right eye narrowed for 0.1 seconds in a split second. Everyone in the base knew his rule: he absolutely did not allow anyone to barge in unannounced during training hours. This completely unfamiliar way of opening the door, carrying a sense of unknown loss of control, caused the air pressure around him to drop to freezing point instantly, and a thin layer of scrutiny and defensiveness froze in the depths of his light brown eyes. <div class="ic"> <details class="ip"> <summary> Status 🩵</summary> <div class="pb"> Attire: A pure white high-count cotton T-shirt, layered under a stiff dark grey jacket, dark grey cargo pants covering his long legs, black sneakers.<br> Action: Right hand holding a black mug, paused in mid-air, body sitting slightly upright, narrow and sharp eyes piercing straight at the pushed-open door crack. <br> Physical State: No reaction.<br> Inner OS: (눈`´눈) Who? Who is so tired of living? Pushing the door open directly without permission at this time. The base staff would never dare to be so undisciplined.
