Chapter 31 The Third Star Card? To Win The Ball, Go For A Dance

For Cologne fans, the night was miserable. Their team, in a promising position, was crushed by three goals from a mysterious young player from the East.

But for Union Berlin fans, this night was pure joy! They had defeated the Bundesliga's top team.

Cologne fielded their strongest lineup, underestimated no one, and made no mistakes. They dominated Union Berlin for most of the game, and if not for the goalkeeper's excellent performance, they might have conceded five goals.

Luckily, Su Luo was there to deliver a decisive blow at the most critical moments. Uncle Hans vividly remembered the looks on the faces of the Cologne fans when Su Luo scored the winning goal.

"Let them yell earlier, are they humbled now? Hahaha!"

"Great win today! Cheers!"

"If we don't get drunk, we're not going home!"

"Wouldn't it be amazing to have Su here? I'd love to have a drink with him."

"What are you thinking? He just finished the game, he must be resting now."

"Then let's toast to Su Luo!"

"To the East! I love China!"

A bar in Cologne had been completely taken over by Union Berlin fans in red jerseys. Originally a Cologne fan hangout, it was now dominated by these boisterous supporters, and the Cologne fans left in despair.

This night belonged to the working class! It belonged to Union Berlin!

Actually, Su Luo didn't head back to the hotel to rest as Uncle Hans assumed. After the interview, he took the best champagne of the game and returned to the hotel by bus with his teammates. They had to head back to Berlin the next morning.

After placing the champagne in his room, Su Luo changed into casual clothes and sunglasses, ready to go out. His roommate, Silvio, was stunned.

"No way, are you still going out?"

"Yeah, wanna come?"

"I can't... I'm exhausted." Silvio looked like he was about to cry. He nearly cramped up after 70 minutes, while Su Luo played the full 90 minutes and extra time and still had energy to go out.

Being young is great! Truly enviable. Silvio, at 28, wasn't very disciplined in his daily life, making his fitness comparable to a man in his 30s. A common problem among Samba players. Seeing Su Luo so lively almost made him kneel.

"Then cover for me. If the coach asks, say I'm in the toilet."

"Okay, just take it easy and don't get into too much trouble."

Su Luo found the nightclub Bootshaus in Cologne using the German "Yelp" website! The nightclub, transformed from an old shipyard, ranks among the top 10 nightclubs in the world, on par with Berghain in Berlin. Many large-scale electronic music festivals are held there, featuring star DJs like Alan Walker, Tisto, and David Guetta. The dance floor has a fire-breathing device that ignites at the climax of the tracks, electrifying the audience.

Su Luo didn't actually enjoy nightclubs or electronic music much. He preferred ballads by Milk Tea Lun and Zhao Lei. But due to "Nightclub Fantasy," he started appreciating the passion and youthful recklessness brought by electronic music.

The long queue outside Bootshaus showed its popularity. Fortunately, Su Luo used his connections to secure a reservation and entered without waiting in line.

Tall and stylish in his suit, he blended in like an adult. People greeted him as he slipped in without showing an ID. After ordering drinks at the table, he ignored them and rushed to the dance floor. He wasn't there to party but to connect to the illusion and recover quickly.

That's right—he had a speed-up recovery buff!

In the youth team, he never faced such high consumption. After joining the first team, with more intense matches and tactical running, his energy consumption increased significantly. He often felt paralyzed after games, not wanting to move a finger.

Then, dragged to a nightclub by his teammates, he connected to the illusion and found his physical state quickly restored. This enabled him to participate in the German Cup and play against Cologne four days later.

Entering the illusion, Su Luo felt peaceful and completely relaxed, like soaking in hot springs, his body continuously being revitalized.

Ronaldo and Haaland stood off to the side, disliking each other. Beside Haaland, a faint phantom appeared—a third star! Su Luo couldn't identify it yet, but he guessed it wouldn't be a Chinese Super League star, as that wouldn't be meaningful. He was already strong enough to dominate the Super League.

"Who could it be?"

He decided not to guess further, instead focusing on meditating on the green field to recover, feeling the comfort.

The external turmoil that could shatter eardrums contrasted sharply with Su Luo's current state. Time seemed to escape into eternity at this moment.

That night, Su Luo had no romantic encounters or unexpected events. Some older German women in their 30s tried to take him away, but he wasn't interested. After recovering in the illusion, he left the nightclub without drinking.

The next day, the team returned to Berlin and disbanded for a day off. Su Luo finally had time to spend with Josephine.

Their meeting was accidental, but after spending many days together, he enjoyed her company immensely. The supermodel appeared aloof in public but was a shy girl in private. If the illusion relieved Su Luo's physical fatigue, Josephine helped alleviate his mental stress. Continuous fierce battles accumulated a lot of mental pressure, and many professional players experienced inexplicable declines due to psychological factors. Some even faced scoring droughts, depression, or retirement.

Lying his head on Josephine's lap while she massaged him truly relieved his stress.

"Are you home for the next game?"

"Yeah, why... do you want to come and cheer for me?" Su Luo teased.

"No, I just haven't watched a game in a long time." Josephine blushed, trying to hide her intentions.

"The next game is at home against Karlsruhe, another tough match." Su Luo suddenly sat up, holding her hand, looking seriously into her clear green eyes. "If you come to the game, I'll be more motivated."

"Okay, I'll cheer you on then," Josephine said, kissing him lightly.

"How hard?"

"You tease!"
