Mazzarri was initially reluctant to implement closed training, but he couldn't withstand the throngs of reporters from all over the world...

In addition, a huge number of fans came to the Volturno Fortress training base, chanting slogans, and unfurling banners demanding that Chen Hero get lost.

The players' normal training could hardly proceed. Because those people shouting slogans outside the training ground always affected the players' training. Many people simply weren't in the mood to train, their eyes constantly glancing to the sidelines. In the end, Mazzarri had to announce the cessation of all routine press conferences, and the team entered a state of closed training.

No one was allowed to enter the training base without permission, and the Volturno Fortress training base strengthened its security forces for this purpose.

But everyone knew that it was Chen Hero who really needed increased security. After he made that declaration to the fans, he became dangerous. This blatant provocation angered many Napoli fans.

And crazy fans are capable of anything. At this time, Chen Hero couldn't afford to have any more problems.

Not only at the edge of the training ground, but also many fans came to Chen Hero's house, protesting loudly, not even letting him sleep. For this reason, the Naples police specially dispatched police forces to implement 24-hour protection outside Chen Hero's house, preventing those excited fans from getting too close, and dispersing the protesting fans at night to prevent them from disturbing Chen Hero's rest.

As for the road to the training ground and back home every day, it was naturally protected by the police.

For a time, Chen Hero seemed to have returned to when he first joined Napoli. Except for his home and Napoli's training base, he was told that he had better not go anywhere, especially crowded places, places where Napoli fans gathered... in order to avoid accidents. That was a situation no one wanted to see.

Hernandez Garcia Perez mentioned the Naples police's protection of Chen Hero in a private letter to the editor of *Mundo Deportivo*. In his opinion, this was not protection at all. This state of panic would only make Chen Hero more tired.

"...No player can live in such a tense atmosphere all the time. He doesn't even have the most basic entertainment. All he does is train and go home to rest. I think with Chen Hero's character, he will go crazy after a few days of this kind of life! I believe Chen Hero's state will definitely be affected!"

※※※

But in reality, Chen Hero was not as nervous and tired as people imagined. Nor would he be driven crazy by the loss of his basic entertainment, as Perez said. He took the opportunity to intensify his free kick training in the instance dungeon. He had been quite obsessed with grinding instance dungeons recently because he discovered one benefit of this training: practicing free kicks could also improve the accuracy of his shots, and with improved shooting accuracy, his goal rate would naturally increase.

So, completely contrary to what Perez said, Chen Hero was not only not driven crazy by this life without entertainment, but was also immersed in the instance dungeon with relish.

Besides, this wasn't the first time he had experienced something like this, so what was there to be afraid of with experience?

Anyway, Cabrera was there to protect him... Speaking of which, he really had to thank those excited fans.

Due to concerns about Chen Hero's safety at night, Cabrera had moved into Chen Hero's bedroom and slept with him—yes, you read that right, "slept together". This time, due to the particularly serious situation, for safety reasons, Cabrera and Chen Hero slept in the same bed... In the event of an emergency, she could immediately use her body as a shield and cover for Chen Hero, and could also react as quickly as possible.

On a two-meter-wide bed, Chen Hero occupied two-thirds of the area, while Cabrera lay fully clothed in the other third.

At the thought of a beauty lying next to him, Chen Hero's heart began to stir...

This was a rare opportunity!

※※※

The room was not quiet, nor was it completely dark. Although the lights were off, there were still street lights outside, and the flashing lights on the police car. The protesting fans had been dispersed by the police, replaced by some sounds from the walkie-talkies between the police officers, and the policemen's low-voiced conversations.

Chen Hero lay in bed, with Cabrera lying fully clothed about a meter away from him.

After pretending to be asleep, Chen Hero restlessly tossed and turned in bed, sometimes lying flat, sometimes lying on his side, sometimes lying on his stomach. In the process of constantly changing sleeping positions, he gradually approached Cabrera. In order to make his turning over more natural and realistic, he would snore or smack his lips when he was not moving. When he turned over, these sounds all disappeared, and after he turned back, the sounds would resume after a while.

After enough groundwork, he pretended to turn over, raised his right leg, and pressed it toward Cabrera's slender legs.

At this moment, he felt a chill below his abdomen, and a hard, cold thing pressed against his little brother. Only separated by a pair of underwear, the touch was very clear.

He immediately knew what it was... A gun!

Was this a warning to himself that if he dared to mess around, she would blow his little brother to pieces with one shot?!

Damn! You're ruthless!

Chen Hero gnashed his teeth in his heart, but there was no reaction on his face, which was pretending to be asleep. He closed his eyes, with a peaceful sleeping expression. But if you observed him carefully, you could see that his right leg was suspended in the air, and not really touching Cabrera's body...

He persisted like this for a while, and the veins on his neck popped out. Then, taking advantage of an opportunity to turn over, he lifted his leg, turned back, and faced away from Cabrera. Only then did the expression on Chen Hero's face change.

Damn it! I almost cramped! You actually used a gun to defend against me, that's so heartbreaking! Am I that dangerous!

But Chen Hero only dared to mutter these words in his heart, and dared not really say them out loud. He found that this woman was still unambiguous when she should be strong...

Cabrera put away the gun and remained lying flat on the bed, but her face was turned to the side, looking at Chen Hero with his back to her, and from time to time hearing snoring in her ear.

Her beautiful eyes reflected the light from outside the window in the darkened room, and her eyes kept flashing, just like the indicator light of a computer running a program.

But a smile appeared on her face.

Chen Hero felt Cabrera behind him sit up from the bed, and the Simmons mattress trembled, and his heart was lifted up—could it be that his little thoughts just now had been seen through, and she was planning to give him a little color to see? Damn, I don't want to die at the hands of that group of extreme fans, but instead die under the gun of my own bodyguard!

He closed his eyes and waited for a while, but there was no reaction.

He then secretly opened his eyes, and after adapting to the light in the room, the first thing that came into view was a black shadow by the window. It was Cabrera standing by the window. She used her hand to lift a corner of the curtain, and the flashing lights of the police car outside reflected in, turning her into a silhouette by the window, with a panoramic view of her graceful curves.

Such a woman...

Chen Hero can't be considered a rookie in the field of love. He has had love experiences, and he has also had one-night stands. But when he faced Cabrera, he was at a loss, and all his past experience was of no use.

If Vera, the spokesperson, was just an iceberg, then Cabrera was simply the Wailing Wall. Facing her, there was no other way but to sigh.

Did he really have to watch her disappear from his life, and maybe never see her again in the future?

Chen Hero was not reconciled.

He had never had such a strong desire to embrace this woman in his arms, kiss her, and caress her. That kiss at the Christmas dinner aroused his infinite desire.

It's not that he hadn't thought about confessing directly, but after spending three years with Cabrera, Chen Hero felt that with his understanding of Cabrera, if he confessed, the result would most likely be a direct rejection. Wouldn't that be too embarrassing for him? And once he was rejected, I'm afraid it would be even more embarrassing to get along, and there would be no way to contact her in the future...

Just as Chen Hero was looking at Cabrera in a daze, Cabrera suddenly turned around.

This turn scared Chen Hero so much that he quickly closed his eyes, for fear of being seen through by the other party that he was not really asleep, but was secretly looking at her.

※※※

Cabrera turned around and looked at Chen Hero. Chen Hero thought he was pretending well, but she had already seen that he was pretending to be asleep.

This person is sometimes so strong that he is completely unreasonable, and sometimes so childish and cute like a child...

In fact, sometimes she is also worried—such a person, going to England, leaving me, can he take care of himself?

※※※

Chen Hero didn't know when he fell asleep. He only remembered that he was worried that Cabrera, who had suddenly turned around, would see through his "trick", so he quickly closed his eyes and pretended to sleep. Unexpectedly, this pretense became real. He really fell asleep, and when he opened his eyes again, it was already the next morning.

His first action was to turn over and look behind him—there was only him on the big bed. The place where Cabrera had slept was flat and tidy, as if she hadn't slept here last night. And the area that he had tossed and turned in was already wrinkled, as if it had experienced a fierce battle...

Yawning, Chen Hero saw Cabrera in the kitchen downstairs, making breakfast for him.

"Last night, uh... did you go back to your room?" he asked.

Cabrera shook her head: "No. I was by your side the whole time, Mr. Chen."

"What time did you get up?"

"Half past six in the morning."

Chen Hero smacked his lips: "That's early!"

Cabrera put a fried egg on a plate already piled high with ham, bacon, and bread.

"Your breakfast is ready." After handing the plate to Chen Hero, she turned and walked to the dining table, where there was another plate of breakfast, obviously her own.

Holding the plate, Chen Hero looked at Cabrera's back and suddenly asked: "Are you really not going to England with me?"

"England is not Napoli. It's not as dangerous there as it is here." Cabrera looked back at him.

"There are also football hooligans in England! English football hooligans are world-famous!"

Cabrera sat down and buried her head in her meal: "Eat your meal, Mr. Chen. Otherwise, you'll be late for training."

Chen Hero rolled his eyes. He really had no way to deal with this woman who was impervious to reason.

※※※

Because they were not allowed to enter the Volturno Fortress training base, the fans who came to protest and the reporters who planned to dig up some news could only gather outside the gate of the training base.

When Chen Hero's car, protected by a number of police cars, drove over, the fans who had been waiting for a long time unfurled banners, held up cartoons and slogans, and then chanted slogans.

"Go back to your Liverpool, traitor!"

"Napoli can still win the championship without you! Don't take yourself too seriously!"

"You're not even worthy of shining Diego's shoes, bastard!"

"Arrogant and ignorant Chinese pig, you will never be better than Diego!!"

……

In the shouts of the fans, the reporters excitedly raised their cameras, and the flashes flickered up and down in the "click, click" of the shutter.

"It's really spectacular..." some reporters smacked their lips and sighed while taking pictures.

"Where there is Hero, there is news, haha!"

A group of reporters laughed, enjoying the news material Chen Hero provided for them, but mocking Chen Hero without mercy.

The Chinese reporters were different from them. Most of them frowned, with worried expressions on their faces. They were all worried that this situation would continue to affect Chen Hero's performance in the league and the Champions League final...

They were almost at the finish line, and it would be a real loss if they fell short in the end because of these things!

Some people were still blaming Chen Hero in their hearts: Hero, oh Hero, even if you have a lot of dissatisfaction with those extreme fans in Naples, can't you just swallow your anger first, and wait until you've finished playing the Champions League final before settling the accounts? Don't you even understand the meaning of settling accounts after the autumn harvest? Whatever others ask you, just agree? You can keep silent first, or say that there is no such thing! There are countless examples of lying in the world of football. Everyone secretly contacts other teams, pretending to be loyal on the surface... It's not shameful to do this kind of thing.

Why are you so straight?

Too hard will be broken!
