Run, Best Actor!

Chapter 11 The Surging Waves

The incident of two people colliding in adjacent lanes during the men's 100-meter final at the Olympics would not be considered an accident by anyone with common sense.

They are all professional athletes, seasoned professionals. It's just running the 100 meters; it's impossible for them to lose control of their bodies.

So when the incident happened, most people assumed it was intentional on the part of that American black man, Tyson Gay.

The Chinese sports team filed a complaint directly with the London Organizing Committee, demanding severe punishment for Tyson Gay.

The US team naturally tried to smooth things over and refused to acknowledge any wrongdoing.

They insisted it was an accident and refused to admit that Tyson Gay had maliciously hit them.

The situation has been deadlocked for two days. Liu Taile has already completed his surgery, but the other side is still arguing.

After regaining his senses, Liu Taile realized that it would be very difficult to get justice in this matter.

After all, it's common knowledge that the United States and the United Kingdom have always been on the same side.

It's just that England used to be the big brother, and the United States was just a little brother.

However, fortunes can change drastically over time.

After experiencing two world wars, the United States made a fortune from the wars and quickly surpassed England.

The United States is now the big brother, and England is almost relegated to the sidelines.

Therefore, it is unlikely that Black athletes from the United States will receive the punishment they deserve when they make mistakes.

In the original timeline, Tyson Gay was found to have used banned substances in 13 and was subsequently suspended for a year.

hehe~~

If someone else were found to have used banned substances in 13, all their results from the previous two years would be nullified, and they would be banned for 2-4 years.

But Tyson Gay is American, and also Black.

These days, the US leader is still Obama.

That's why Black Lives Matter is valuable!

Therefore, a one-year ban was given as a token gesture.

Liu Taile also knew about this, so he knew that his "accident" would probably be "easily let go" in the end.

Unfortunately, the country's strength is insufficient these days to help him seek justice.

Just like Liu Xiang, who had come to visit him before, advised him: "Xiao Le, if the final result is not what you want, don't hold a grudge."

There's nothing we brothers can do about it; we just have to try to be positive about it.

After all, the honor has already been doubled for you. As an athlete representing the country, you have to work your butt off to achieve results on the field.

Good grades will lead to more rewards in the future.

If your grades are bad, things won't be easy for you later on.

In fact, Liu Xiang is in an even worse situation than Liu Taile.

After all, failing in two consecutive Olympic Games, in front of the whole world, really ruined all the goodwill they had earned before.

Ordinary people don't usually pay attention to other events and wouldn't know how many world-class track and field competitions Liu Xiang participated in and how many championships he won before the two Olympic Games.

Matches with short breaks and excessive intensity are essentially draining his professional life.

Under such intense pressure, the probability of an accident occurring at the Olympics is extremely high.

But the public only cares about whether he can win another gold medal at the Olympics and bring honor to the country.

Unfortunately, Liu Xiang messed up both Olympic Games.

Then he shouldn't blame the nationwide criticism he receives.

Liu Taile's situation is much better.

Although he also failed to finish the competition, he was, after all, the victim and could receive widespread sympathy.

However, now that the perpetrator has made a move, the situation may change drastically!

"How could Tyson Gay suddenly commit suicide?!"

Yang Mi asked Sun Ting urgently, "Is the person already dead?"

"He's probably not dead yet; he's still being treated."

Sun Ting replied, her face pale, "But I heard the situation is quite bad."

How did he commit suicide?

Liu Taile, who was standing to the side, asked calmly.

"It's said he took an overdose of sleeping pills."

Sun Ting quickly replied, "When his teammates found him, he was already in shock and was rushed to the hospital."

"Hehe~~"

Liu Taile laughed upon hearing this, "I guessed it was sleeping pills right away, there's really no originality at all."

"Wait, how did that guy get his hands on sleeping pills?"

Yang Mi pressed further, "And during the competition, are athletes allowed to take sleeping pills?"

That's obviously not an option.

While pre-competition anxiety and competing in different time zones can indeed cause sleep problems for athletes, taking some sleep aids is understandable in such cases.

However, it is important to know that some sleeping pills may contain ingredients that are prohibited for athletes, which could cause athletes to test positive for drugs in their urine.

Therefore, athletes are generally not allowed to take sleeping pills during competitions.

"I heard it was sleeping pills belonging to the US track and field team coach, which were stolen by that Tyson Gay."

Sun Ting explained.

"Okay, okay, okay~~~"

Liu Taile laughed again, "The statements from both sides match perfectly, it's truly flawless."

"You can still laugh?!"

Yang Mi said reproachfully, "If the other party dies, things will become very complicated later on."

Being as clever as she is, she naturally figured it out as well.

Did Tyson Gay commit suicide simply because he couldn't withstand the pressure of external criticism?

Don't be ridiculous!

If you don't have strong mental fortitude, what kind of athlete are you?

Moreover, running into the neighboring road and hitting someone in full view of everyone doesn't seem like an accident at all.

It was absolutely intentional.

In this situation, he suddenly wanted to commit suicide, and coincidentally, their coach carried sleeping pills with him, so it was so easy for him to do it...

Then, coincidentally, his teammates discovered him in time and quickly took him to the hospital.

Given the level of attention this incident is receiving from all parties, it is estimated that the other party will not actually lose their life.

But all of this is just too much of a coincidence.

But if there are too many coincidences, then it's no longer a coincidence!

All I can do now is laugh it off.

Liu Taile said with a smile, "I need to hold a press conference as soon as possible to express my shock and regret over Tyson Gay's ordeal and to hope that he will be out of danger soon."

"And you also have to generously say that it was all an accident and that you won't blame the other person in the future."

Yang Mi retorted angrily, "After all, the person 'committed suicide,' can't we keep harping on the other person's mistakes? That would make even if we were right, we wouldn't be right."

But this is just too much! It's clearly a setup!

"There's nothing we can do; that's just how things are now."

Liu Taile, as the person involved, took it very lightly, saying, "It's because our country's strength is still insufficient, and we ourselves are not good enough."

If Liu Taile were the defending champion and had encountered this situation on the field, it would have caused a huge uproar worldwide.

Even if the other party doesn't want to, they still have to give all parties a satisfactory explanation.

Instead of responding in this way as we are doing now.

Damn it, they've turned the perpetrators into the vulnerable party.

"Xiao Le, this matter can't be left like this!"

Upon receiving the news, Liu Renxian and Li Yuhua went inside and said to Liu Taile, "Let's go and complain. Even if it means our parents have to go bankrupt, we'll get revenge for you!"
