LOL: What does it mean to torture players?

Abu stepped forward with a serious expression and said in a deep voice: "The formation of the team battle has been completely disrupted! Your attention was completely drawn to TOP's mid, top and jungle, and you ignored their bottom lane."

“Although the combination of LokeN and Ben is not very famous, a team that can reach the semi-finals has no real weaknesses! They are not strong, but they are definitely not bad!”

He glanced at each player and said in a more serious tone, "Next game, keep a close eye on their bottom lane. Do you understand?"

Afterwards, Abu led everyone to quickly engage in an intense review.

Every mistake and every decision is magnified and scrutinized.

After the review, the tactical arrangements for the next game were carried out in full swing.

Su Mo walked up to Jiejie and patted his shoulder: "Jiejie, you were too cautious when dealing with Xx. You were a little restrained. There's no need to be like this. Do you understand what I mean? Your operation, your thinking, and your overall view are all better than his. Don't be confused by some of his past highlights. Just go and fight him and crush him!"

Jiejie's eyes lit up, as if a heavy burden had been lifted off his shoulders. He nodded heavily, his voice firm: "I understand, Brother Mozi!"

The horn for the second game was soon blown, and players from both teams returned to the field.

In this game, Jiejie thoroughly implemented Su Mo's instructions, transformed into a predator in the jungle, and launched a crazy invasion and targeting of Xx's jungle from the beginning.

Xx's jungle area instantly became Jiejie's back garden. The red and blue buffs were lost, the wild monsters were cleared out, the experience and economy were all lagging behind, and the development suffered a devastating blow.

Xx was in great pain and could only send out distress signals to the top and middle lanes, trying to seek support. However, Jiejie had already predicted this, and EDG's online support was always one step faster than TOP.

As a result, TOP, who had been able to barely maintain a balance online, began to explode in a chain reaction due to the complete collapse of the jungle.

In the lounge, the factory manager was stunned, then burst into laughter: "Oh my god! It was so easy to take him down! This Xx was beaten too badly, he is simply an ATM machine!"

Su Mo smiled faintly, "Normal. TOP is a team with strong individual abilities, but their linkage and flaws are also obvious. As long as we can accurately grasp the flaws and deliver a thundering blow, it won't be too difficult to defeat them."

The victory in the second game was like a shot of adrenaline injected into the hearts of the EDG players. Their tense nerves relaxed a lot and smiles appeared on their faces again.

So in the crucial third game, Jiejie continued with his aggressive style from the previous game and continued to exert tremendous pressure on Xx's jungle area.

But this time, his strategy was slightly different. He used more precise vision control to keep a firm grasp on Xx's movements.

Once it was confirmed that Xx was not in the upper jungle area, he decisively cooperated with the top laner Ray to launch a gank against 369.

Soon, the effect of this strategy was immediately apparent. 369 was overwhelmed in the top lane and could only desperately click signals to ask Xx for help.

Xx had no choice but to rush to the top lane to provide support.

But he didn't know that Jiejie had already laid a trap and patiently hunched in the bushes on the top lane. When Xx and 369 tried to counterattack, Jiejie rushed out like a ghost and cooperated with Ray to kill TOP's top and jungle in an instant, and the top lane completely collapsed.

In the subsequent games, EDG firmly controlled the rhythm and radiated the entire map with the huge advantage in the top lane. They easily won the third game and took the match point first!

Then came the fourth deciding game.

EDG is in high spirits, the players are in better and better condition, and their cooperation is becoming more and more tacit.

On the other hand, the inexperience and unstable mentality of the young players on TOP began to show. There seemed to be some discordant voices in the team communication. Faced with continuous pressure, their operations began to become distorted and mistakes were frequent.

Especially the top laner 369, who became the focus of Jiejie's "care". He was caught and his mentality was unbalanced. His operation began to change. He missed a lot of last hits and his positioning became more aggressive, which made him more likely to be caught. He could only send out anxious distress signals over and over again in the team voice chat.

The factory manager was watching from the lounge and laughed, "Hahaha, 369 is going crazy from being tortured! Jiejie is such a despicable guy, he's just pulling at a sheep!"

Su Mo stared at the screen intently and said, "Esports is so cruel. If you want to win, you must find your opponent's weakness and then give him a fatal blow without mercy."

In the end, with the crystal of TOP's base exploding, EDG advanced to the finals with a score of three to one!
Thunderous cheers broke out in the locker room and the players hugged each other excitedly!
The next day, the other semi-final was also settled.

After five fierce battles, the FPX team narrowly defeated their opponents and successfully met EDG in the finals.

This is undoubtedly good news for EDG.

After all, as teams in the same LPL, they have played against each other many times and are relatively familiar with each other's tactical styles.

Su Mo, in particular, knows Doinb, a mid laner known for his unique hero pool and roaming support, very well. As early as when Doinb was still in the RW team, he was repeatedly sanctioned by Su Mo and his EDG.

However, before the battle drums of the LPL finals sounded, Su Mo's mind had already drifted to another arena - the peak showdown of LCK, T1 vs. GRF!

The outcome of this game also concerns countless e-sports fans.

While other teammates were still engaged in intensive Rank training, Su Mo opened the game live broadcast room alone, ready to enjoy this competition representing the highest level of LCK.

As soon as Su Mo opened the live broadcast, a familiar "screen peeping" smell came from behind. The factory manager had quietly approached him without anyone noticing, and asked with his head poked out, "Hey, what are you watching? The LCK game? Is this the finals or something?"

Su Mo replied without even turning his head: "The finals, T1 vs. GRF."

"Tsk tsk, you still have the mind to care about this." The factory director said this, but his body was very honest. He moved a chair swiftly and sat comfortably next to Su Mo.

On the live screen, the players from both teams were ready to go on stage. The five GRF players were the first to appear, all of them were in high spirits, their eyes were full of desire for the championship and the sharpness of youth.

"Look, this is the state of young people, full of vigor and vitality!" The factory manager praised, and then he was a little puzzled, "But then again, T1 is a really weird team. I remember that they struggled a lot in the regular season, and even had a period of time when their qualification for the playoffs was in jeopardy. How come they suddenly made it back to the finals?"

Su Mo explained: "They didn't find the answer to the game before. But since the first round of the playoffs, they have been unstoppable and have completed the feat of one-on-three. This is the feeling, the team's chemistry and the players' conditions have been adjusted to the best."

The factory manager was stunned when he heard this: "Huh? Isn't that exactly the same as our EDG's playoff trajectory this year? We also started from the first round and won three games with one kill all the way!"

Su Mo nodded, a smile on his face: "Indeed. Maybe our two teams will have the opportunity to meet again in the world championship as the number one seeds in their respective regions."

The scene entered the BP stage, Su Mo and the factory manager held their breath and watched the battle attentively.

On the T1 side, they first locked the mid laner Akali for Faker.

GRF responded by bringing out Sylas.

The factory manager stroked his chin and muttered, "Sylas vs. Akali seems to be the mainstream counter choice, right? I see that many teams like to use it this way."

Su Mo replied, "Almost. In the laning phase, Sylas is not inferior to Akali with his W recovery and Q lane clearing. In team battles, Sylas' role becomes more comprehensive after stealing key ultimates, and his solo laning ability is not weak either."

However, just when everyone thought it would be a classic mid lane Akali vs. Sylas drama, T1 suddenly made a shocking swap at the last second of the BP! They swapped the Crocodile and Akali, Faker's Akali went to the top lane, and the mid laner became Khan's Crocodile!
"Fuck! We got tricked! GRF got tricked!" The factory manager slapped his thigh and exclaimed, "As expected of T1, these old foxes are really good at playing! In such a crucial final, they even dared to use this kind of swaying tactics!"

He became more and more excited as he spoke. "Besides, you see, their jungler is Spider! The mid-jungle combination of Spider and Crocodile clearly means they won't give the opponent's mid laner any chance to survive!"

Enter the game screen and the laning phase begins.

Khan's Crocodile faced Chovy's Sylas in the middle lane.

Normally, Crocodile's early laning strength is enough to crush Sylas. But what is surprising is that when the two sides really started laning, Chovy's Sylas, with his extremely delicate operation and perfect control of distance, actually fought back and forth with Crocodile and did not lose the upper hand at all!

Faker's Crocodile, the former mid-lane devil, couldn't gain any advantage at all in the laning match against Chovy's Sylas!
"No way?! Chovy's laning ability is too abnormal! Even if Faker's crocodile is not as proficient as his signature hero, he should be able to gain an advantage, right?"

The factory manager was stunned and felt that his understanding of the game was challenged.

Su Mo seemed to have expected this and said with a smile, "You just found out? You must not have watched LCK games carefully. Chovy's laning power in the middle lane is recognized as invincible in LCK. Almost no one can take advantage of him in the laning phase."

After a pause, Su Mo added, "Didn't you see it with your own eyes during the previous Intercontinental Championship?"

Upon hearing this, the factory manager curled his lips in disdain, with a bit of veteran arrogance: "Tsk, invincible? I've been playing professionally for so many years, and I've never seen anyone who is truly invincible!"

Five minutes into the game, Crocodile in the middle suddenly took the initiative to move forward and had a fierce exchange of blood with Sylas, and seemingly inadvertently used his E skill to move. On the surface, this exchange of blood seemed to be a small gain for Sylas.

But Su Mo saw it clearly and whispered, "Faker is acting, deliberately showing a flaw." From the perspective of the sky, it can be clearly seen that Clid's Spider has already quietly wandered to the grass in the middle river, waiting for an opportunity to move. Obviously, Faker deliberately used this method to paralyze Sylas and induce him to let down his guard.

Before this, Chovy's Sylas had been on high alert, moving very carefully, not giving Crocodile a chance to get close to him. Sure enough, this time, young Chovy was fooled. Seeing that Crocodile didn't have the E skill, he subconsciously moved forward a little, trying to suppress Crocodile's last hit.

At this moment, Faker's Crocodile's eyes flashed with coldness, and suddenly attacked! A W skill "Cold Hunting" accurately stunned Sylas, and the damage in the red rage state exploded instantly! At the same time, Clid's Spider rushed out from the flank like a ghost, and a precise E skill "Cocoon" followed closely, fixing Sylas firmly in place! Chovy's Sylas's health dropped rapidly, and was instantly beaten to a low health.

By the time he recovered from the control and wanted to use flash to escape, Faker's next E skill "Rampage" had already cooled down. He followed up decisively and took Chovy's first blood in a cool way!

"They are so cunning! So cunning!" The factory manager shook his head again and again. "These old guys are so bad! Poor young people, they were fooled!"

Su Mo smiled and said, "Young people have their own drive and skills, and veterans have their own experience and calculations. Isn't this normal?"

After this successful gank, Faker's Crocodile began to steadily control the lane, enjoying the economic and experience advantages brought by the first blood. Chovy, who died once, resurrected and returned to the line, and directly chose two Doran's Rings and a cloth armor to go out.

This outfit emphasizes the word "tank", which clearly means to be a "non-stick pan" in the lane, clinging to it tightly and improving one's ability to withstand pressure. Doran's Ring ensures health recovery and mana endurance, while cloth armor can effectively reduce the physical damage of the crocodile.

However, even so, Chovy returned to the line and continued to fight. When facing the crocodile who had already got the first blood, his Sylas still showed amazing resilience in the line. Not only was he not further suppressed, he was even able to take advantage of some small blood exchange details.

The factory manager frowned, puzzled: "Is it that Faker's laning ability has really declined, or is this Chovy really that strong? I don't understand. The laning ability of the hero Crocodile must be strong in the early and mid-term? Crocodile, who got the first blood, can't beat the opponent's Sylas in the laning phase?"

Su Mo replied: "Faker's proficiency in playing Crocodile is definitely not as good as his signature mid-lane heroes, there is no doubt about that. However, it is also true that Chovy's personal laning ability is indeed top-notch. So, it's a combination of both factors."

He paused and continued his analysis, "But no matter what, there is a very big advantage for Faker to choose Crocodile as the mid laner, and that is that it is almost impossible for Sylas to kill him alone. Crocodile's tankiness and control are enough to ensure that Faker will not die easily in the mid lane."

Sure enough, in the subsequent laning phase, the two sides basically maintained a 50-50 situation in the middle lane. Although there were occasional frictions, no large-scale battles broke out and no one could pose a substantial threat to the other.

Su Mo's eyes swept across the entire Summoner's Rift and continued to analyze, "Moreover, if you look closely at T1's lineup selection in this game, it is very sophisticated. The top lane is Faker's Akali, and the bottom lane is Teddy's Ezreal with support Rakan. These three heroes are all heroes that are difficult for the opponent GRF to kill through ganks. They only need to ensure their own development."

"So," Su Mo said with a hint of admiration, "Clid's Elise can unscrupulously devote all his energy to the middle lane and constantly put pressure on Chovy's Sylas. GRF's mid and jungle are double AP output of Elise and Sylas, and Faker's Crocodile only needs to properly add some magic resistance equipment. In a small-scale 2V2 team battle, GRF's mid and jungle will definitely not be able to beat T1."

The factory manager nodded repeatedly after hearing this, and suddenly realized: "Okay, Brother Mozi, you have understood all this! This T1's tactical thinking is indeed clear."

Ten minutes into the game, Clid's Elise visited the middle lane again. At this point, Faker's Crocodile and Chovy's Sylas's flashes had already cooled down.

This time, the gank was simpler and more direct than the last one. Faker's crocodile was just like a textbook. He used the minions to complete two elegant E skill displacements, and accurately approached Sylas. He used the W skill "Cold Hunting" with red anger and hit him hard! Clid's spider understood and followed up with the W skill "Predatory Fury" to add damage. Chovy's Sylas saw that the situation was not good, and decisively activated the crocodile's ultimate skill "Ultimate Domination" that he had stolen before, trying to increase his tankiness and withstand the damage.

At this time, Sylas already had an Explorer's Armguard on him, which made him look quite tough. However, facing the fierce fire damage from the T1 mid-jungle duo, especially the high percentage magic damage from Spider in the early stage, he still couldn't withstand it and was killed again!

The factory manager was amazed: "Tsk tsk, this cooperation is too disgusting. Chovy's Sylas has so many resistance equipment, but he is still beaten. There is really no way out."

Su Mo smiled and said, "This is the situation where a young player meets an experienced player. Although young players are sharp in operation and quick in reaction, they are often not as experienced and tactically knowledgeable as the veterans who have fought for many years. Once they reach the crucial BO5 in the playoffs, they are easily cheated due to their lack of experience."

After gaining the advantage in the middle lane, T1 did not rush for success, but instead showed the deep operational skills of a veteran team. They used the crocodile as a strong point to steadily control two fire dragons and a water dragon, and took a considerable lead in the attributes of elemental dragons.

In the next ten minutes, Summoner's Rift was relatively calm, with only three kills between the two sides, all in small skirmishes, with only one kill at a time. GRF could not find a chance to break the deadlock, while T1 played steadily and did not give GRF any chance to take advantage. If they could not find a good opportunity to start a team fight, they would just focus on developing and slowly expand their economic and equipment lead.

The game time has unknowingly reached 1 minutes. T finally seized a golden opportunity! Faker's Crocodile took advantage of the line of soldiers and quickly pushed the middle lane soldiers across the river. While GRF was distracted by the middle lane soldiers, Faker's Crocodile suddenly rushed out from the shadows on the flank like a sharp knife and rushed straight to GRF's back row squishy!
GRF's formation was in chaos, and they could only retreat to the direction of the dragon pit in a hurry. However, T1's top laner Akali had already used TP to get behind GRF, forming a perfect double team! A "dumpling-making" style siege battle began. GRF's formation collapsed instantly under T1's front and back attacks, and suffered a shocking defeat, with core output positions killed one after another. As T1 pushed up the high ground like a whirlwind, the victory or defeat of this game was already settled.

The factory manager sighed and shook his head: "Alas, they are still too young. The current T1 has a very clear strategy. It is to operate steadily, find the opponent's flaws in defense, and not give the young players of GRF too many opportunities to show their skills. Slow down the rhythm of the game and drag it into the operation field where they are best at." He paused and continued, "This kind of young and energetic team is most afraid of this kind of chronic torture. As long as they get impatient, they will always reveal flaws. T1 is waiting for this opportunity. A wave of deadly rhythm can completely defeat them."

Su Mo smiled slightly: "Mingkai, it seems that your level of watching the game has improved, and your analysis is very logical. But then again, in e-sports, results are paramount. As long as you can win the game, no matter what strategy you use, it is a good strategy."

After a short break, the second game started soon, and both sides entered the BP game again.

This time, T1 still confidently locked Akali for Faker. GRF was not to be outdone and continued to choose Sylas for Chovy, seemingly giving him a chance for revenge.

However, GRF learned from their mistakes and was obviously more cautious this time. While choosing Sylas, they also decisively snatched the jungler Elise. As a result, T1's strong mid-jungle combination of Crocodile and Elise in the last game could not be repeated.

The factory manager touched his chin and muttered, "It seems that GRF still trusts Chovy's Sylas very much. Are they going to give him a chance for revenge? But now that they have taken away Elise, T1's mid and jungle will not be so easy to cooperate with."

Su Mo responded, "In the last game, Chovy's laning phase didn't have any major problems. They were mainly targeted by T1's strategies and ganks. So GRF's selection is theoretically sound, allowing Chovy to play the heroes they are confident in and perform as expected." He turned his eyes and looked at T1's selection. "However, T1 also made quick adjustments. Look at the top lane. Khan locked onto Shen. In this game, T1 is probably going to start attacking GRF's top laner Doran."

Going into the game, GRF obviously realized that the top lane might become a breakthrough point for T1, so jungler Tarzan's Spider often wandered around the river and jungle near the top lane in the early stages of the game, trying to counter-camp and protect Doran's Captain.

However, Clid's Sejuani was very smart and patient. He seemed to have seen through Tarzan's intentions, and did not go to the top lane to gank in the early stage, but focused on the development and map control of the middle and bottom lanes. This made Tarzan's Spider feel very uncomfortable, like a punch on cotton, unable to exert any force. Tarzan's Spider was like a headless fly in the jungle, doing almost nothing in the first ten minutes, just "standing guard" near the top lane, but not making a single effective gank.

The factory manager frowned and couldn't help complaining: "This Tarzan doesn't seem to have much intelligence! Doesn't he know how to change his mindset and go gank other lanes? Isn't it a waste of his development time to stay in the top lane all the time?"

Su Mo smiled and explained, "I don't think it's all Tarzan's fault. This is actually more of a chain reaction caused by the BP level. Think about it, if he ganks top lane and faces Khan's Shen, how high is his success rate? Shen has the displacement of the E skill and has flash. The combination of Elise and Gangplank, who has no stable hard control, is very difficult to kill an experienced Shen."

"What about ganking the middle lane?" Su Mo continued to analyze. "The middle lane is Faker's Akali. This hero's flexibility and escape ability are abnormal. In this version, no matter which lane Akali goes, she is basically a 'no gank' hero by default, because the success rate of ganking is too low, and the input and output are completely disproportionate. There is no need to waste time."

"As for the bottom lane," Su Mo spread his hands, "T1 picked Ezreal in the bottom lane, who is also a very flexible ADC that is hard to be caught. So, to put it bluntly, GRF's move to grab Elise was probably a failure from a strategic perspective. I guess it's because GRF's coaching staff was confused by T1's crocodile and spider tactics in the last game, which led to their BP rhythm being a bit chaotic, and the lineup they picked lacked coordination and gank effectiveness."

The factory manager nodded thoughtfully: "Well, now that you mention it, it's true. T1's coaching staff, Kkoma, is really good. They are really good at BP."

Eleven minutes into the game, Clid's Sejuani, who had been holding back, finally attacked the top laner! He seized Doran's mistake of moving forward and decisively rushed out from the river, cooperating with Khan's Shen to easily kill the captain and help Shen get the first blood.

Both teams continued to develop steadily. Although Tarzan's Spider did not go to the bottom lane in the early stage, GRF's bottom lane combination of Viper and Lehends, relying on their personal strength, actually played some advantages and took the lead in pushing down T1's bottom lane first tower. Afterwards, they switched to the middle lane, and successfully pulled out T1's middle lane first tower at minutes into the game.

The factory manager commented: "GRF's ADC player Viper in the bottom lane feels really strong. He handles the details of the laning phase very well and has enough suppression power. In the last game, Teddy's EZ didn't seem to be able to beat him, and he also lost a tower first."

Su Mo agreed: "He is indeed a very capable contestant with outstanding personal abilities."

The factory manager touched his chin and said thoughtfully: "Speaking of which, among the younger generation of ADC players in our LPL region, besides EDG's Iboy, who else can really take up the banner and stand alone in the world game?"

Su Mo smiled and reminded him, "IG's bottom laner, Jackeylove, have you forgotten?"

"Him? Jackeylove?" Zzitai was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "Oh, yes, Jackeylove. But, is it really possible? I saw many people online saying that his playing style is too aggressive. Sometimes he plays like a top laner, not like a traditional ADC at all. Some people even jokingly suggested that he switch to top lane."

Su Mo responded, "It's hard to judge a player's personal style in absolute terms. Whether it's suitable or not depends mainly on the version and the team's overall tactical system. If his teammates can adapt to his style and the team can formulate tactics around him, then his aggressive style of play may become a sharp knife for the team and tear apart the opponent's defense."

Upon hearing this, the factory manager teased mischievously, "After all, it still depends on your teammates. If it really doesn't work, just let you go to the bottom lane to lead the team. You can play any position anyway."

Su Mo laughed and waved his hand: "I'm the one who carries the banner of the bottom lane? Then next time, will I have to carry the jungle, mid lane, and top lane all by myself? What will I become then, an all-round esports pentathlete?"

As they chatted, the match time reached the 22nd minute. Clid's Sejuani ganked the top lane again, and with the help of the gradually-equipped Shen, they easily killed Doran's Gangplank again. Poor Gangplank, facing a hero like Shen who has a strong ability to charge, once he is trapped by the ultimate move "Hex Ultimatum", he is almost doomed to die, and has no power to resist.

Relying on Khan's Shen's huge advantage in the side lanes, T1 firmly controlled the rhythm of the game, constantly expanding its economic and equipment lead through split pushing and resource plundering.

At the 32nd minute of the game, Khan's Shen had already pushed the lane to the high ground tower in the bottom lane of GRF. At this moment, Captain Doran was far behind in terms of equipment and level, so he was not qualified to fight Shen alone. If he was not careful, he might be killed directly under the tower.

The factory manager was amused and said with a smile: "This Khan is really a weird guy. When fighting with you, he is timid, but when fighting with others, he suddenly becomes full of energy and punches hard. It seems that he still has some shadows of the 'Emperor of Top Road' in the past."

Su Mo commented: "Khan is a late bloomer. When he was young, he was unknown in the LCK and had little fame. By the time he really showed some strength and was recognized by everyone, he was actually not young anymore. His current playing style relies more on solid basic skills and rich game experience accumulated over the years to win games. His upper limit of operation may not be as good as some of the top young top laners, but he is more stable and experienced."

Being forced to breathe hard by Shen's solo push, GRF had no choice but to take the risk to fight the Baron, trying to make up for some of the disadvantages by taking the Baron buff, otherwise their bottom lane high ground would soon be cleared.

However, the decision to forcefully rush the Baron when the situation is unfavorable is like drinking poison to quench thirst, and often actively gives the opponent opportunities.

T1 had already seen through GRF's intentions. Teddy's EZ stood outside the dragon pit, constantly using his Q skill "Mystic Shot" to poke and consume, hitting GRF's players, and their health continued to drop. GRF could only bite the bullet and continue to fight the dragon, hoping to take it down in one go.

However, the situation went against their wishes. The Baron was not successfully rushed, and the GRF players were already in very bad condition. T1 seized the opportunity, rushed forward, easily won the Baron team fight, and then ended the game with a single wave of soldiers.

The factory manager shook his head and said with emotion: "It feels like GRF has been completely manipulated by T1 from the BP to the actual play. T1's play is really a perfect example of 'boiling a frog in warm water'. They nibble away at you bit by bit, not giving you a quick win, but slowly wearing you down and making you anxious. Once you're anxious, you're more likely to make mistakes, and once you make a mistake, you're defeated."

Su Mo replied: "This is the scary thing about the veteran teams. They are too experienced and know how to control these young teams that are full of energy but lack experience. They specifically try to wear out their patience, making them unable to use their strength, and eventually leading them to despair in a slow death."

Soon, the third game of BO5 began.

This time, GRF seemed to have opened up their Ren and Du meridians, and they actually did a "reverse Tiangang"! In the BP stage, they also learned the routine of T1 in the previous game and snatched the two heroes, Spider and Crocodile!
Moreover, judging from their lineup selection and hero allocation, they are also going to let Chovy play the mid-lane Crocodile, cooperate with Tarzan's jungle Spider, and play a strong offensive rhythm in the mid-jungle position! This is to give someone a taste of their own medicine! Su Mo and the factory manager in the lounge couldn't help but smile when they saw this scene. (End of this chapter)
