By your name

Wei Xia has a secret in her heart.

From the spring when he was 14 years old, he had to go to another time and space every night.

During the day he was Weisha, in his sleep, he was John Haflicke. Strangely, he was not crazy yet and had no cognitive disorders, and he admired himself for this.

On April 25, 2019, Wei Xia was resting in Philadelphia. They had just swept their opponents in the first round and were waiting for the opponents in the semi-finals to arrive.

If nothing happens, Wei Xia will stay in Philadelphia before the semi-finals begin.

But just today, the sad news came from Boston: "Boston Celtics legendary player "Hondo" John Haflicecke died of Parkinson's disease and was ineffective in treatment at the age of 79.

When Wei Xia first heard this news, she felt an unrealistic feeling of illusion.

He was alone with Havlicek every night.

Switching between black and white is perhaps because he lives two completely different lives, so he knows what he wants from beginning to end.

How could a person like Haflicek die? When he was 35 years old, he could run his full strength for 38 minutes every night, how could he...

Wei Xia never thought about such a thing, nor did he know how to face it. He didn't know what would happen when he traveled through time again at night.

One thing is for sure, he won't stay at home and do nothing.

Wei Xia rushed to Boston, but she didn't know what name to mourn.

Who is he from the Celtics? Strictly speaking, he is an enemy.

He stole the Celtics’ championship in Game 6 in 2008, leaving a generation of Boston fans with an unforgettable nightmare in Game 7.

He dedicated all his best performances in the regular season to the Celtics.

When he faces the Celtics, if the score is less than 40 points, he will be considered to be a misperformer.

Celtic fans see him as if they see a demon.

Will such a person be popular for the legendary mourning of the Celtics?

Even without any reason to say the past, he wanted to make a polite visit. He was very sad. Although he had only met the other party a few times in reality, he had been with Havlicek in his dream for more than ten years.

He knew everything about Havlicek.

Weisha came to Haflicek's house, and everyone knew him, but he didn't expect him to come.

"Hongduo is a role model for all players and is also the player I personally respect the most. This news broke my heart. I just want to..." Wei Xia didn't know how to say, "I just want to come and see him."

Haflicek's family did not stop him.

Wei Xia entered it and met Tom Heinthorne, Bill Russell, Bob Cusey, k.c. Jones... He gradually realized that those Celtics were already very old.

"Wish, I really didn't expect you to come." Heinthorne said unexpectedly.

"Our family is all Celtic fans." Wei Xia said sincerely, "and so are me."

Well, but he liked the Celtics of the Haflicecke era.

"I think our family has a special connection with Hongduo." Wei Xia talked about his grandfather's classic story.

In that game, Russell almost ruined his reputation. The magical steal - Haflicecke stole the ball, and Wayne "stealed" Haflicecke.

"Then my grandfather's most proud thing in his lifetime is that every time he finishes drinking, he will tell this story endlessly."

Wei Xia looked at the old men in front of him. In his dream, they were in their prime and won one championship after another. He thought the world was in his hands, but in fact it was the only thing they could master in the real world.

Heinthorne smiled, "I really miss those old times."

Wei Xia expressed condolences according to the etiquette of Westerners.

Then, he was about to leave. Before leaving, he said to the elderly: "Take care."

That night, Wei Xia temporarily stayed in the hotel.

He didn't buy the last flight ticket and didn't want to be watched by the bus.

After falling asleep and opening his eyes again, Wei Xia did go back to the past, but this time, he was no longer in the image of John Haflicecke.

The sound of crowds came to his ears, and he walked along the waves and found himself coming to the ancient Boston Gardens.

A game is about to be held here, the last regular season game of the season, with the Boston Celtics vs. Brofa Braves.

John Haflicek's final battle in 1978.

The familiar scene, eight minutes of cheers and applause, Havlicek bowed to people from all directions.

Havlicek is still striving for victory, and he does not want to face his final battle with failure.

In Wei Xia's world, he won more championships, and here, he is still the one who has followed the old path.

He runs with all his strength as usual, not like the vitality that a 37-year-old should have.

"Hongduo should play for another three years." At least that's what the fans around Wei Xia said.

Haflicek did not leave too many regrets. He had enough championships and was a natural winner. Maybe in another ten years, people would forget him. In another twenty years, everyone would only remember his steal. However, he probably wouldn't care.

Just before the game ended, Havlicek snapped the opponent's pass.

He chased after him.

Wei Xia opened her eyes wide and saw Havlicek flying towards his position to save the ball.

"Child, you're not injured?"

Haflicek touched Weisha's head, "Let's relax, everything will pass."

"Really?" Wei Xia couldn't help asking.

"Believe me, there is a line of happiness behind the dark clouds!"

A flower suddenly bloomed in Wei Xia's heart. It is difficult to find this flower. Sometimes you can only see it before you die.

The journey of life seems to be very far, and we will solve a problem when we reach the end.

As early as 1978, Havlicek had an answer.

"Hongduo, I am a crazy and great hero, come on!"

The fans shouted.

Hafliceck used all his strength to hit a key layup in front of home fans, and he still ran as hard as the guy with a flat head more than ten years ago.

The performance ended and another victory.

Hong Duo said goodbye to everyone, but Wei Xia never dreamed of him again.

He can still play for Hafliceck in the old days, but he is no longer Hafliceck.

Whenever there is a difficult situation and is reluctant to lose money if you are reluctant to sacrifice yourself, that figure will always appear in Wei Xia's eyes.

He will never forget that figure, he always chases it with all his might like that figure.

Because Hongduo is always like this.
