Dominate the Super Bowl-Chapter 325 - 324 Sacrifice to Heaven Script
"13:30."
The game has ended, and the Kansas City Chiefs claimed victory.
For the second consecutive game, the Kansas City Chiefs hosted a crucial battle on their home turf against their division rivals in a fiercely contested matchup. The team displayed a completely revitalized spirit and competitive form from top to bottom, offering no chances to their arch-rival and securing victory with decisive action.
After two games, the Kansas City Chiefs’ record had improved to eight wins and six losses. They managed to widen the gap in victories against their division competitors, solidifying their seat at the top of the division for the time being. They had firmly taken the initiative in the playoff race, swiftly moving away from the brink of elimination to become the division leaders.
And once again, they emerged as powerful contenders for a spot in the Super Bowl.
At that moment, there was a buzz throughout the League—
The Kansas City Chiefs, who had suffered through a six-game losing streak, had evolved and upgraded? What was supposed to be a life-and-death battle had turned into a one-sided rout?
So, what’s this script all about?
Among them, the Kansas Chiefs running back group performed exceptionally well at the center of the storm.
Hunter rushed for 89 yards, received for 75 yards, and scored a touchdown.
Li Wei rushed for 127 yards and also notched a touchdown.
Together with the third and fourth running backs, the Kansas City Chiefs tore through the Los Angeles Chargers’ ground defense for a total of 233 yards, setting the highest single-game rushing record of the season for the League.
Moreover, after breaking Jamaal Charles’ record of consecutive hundred-plus rushing yards in twelve games with the Kansas City Chiefs in the previous game, Li Wei went even further. He extended the streak of rushing more than a hundred yards per game to fourteen, continuing to write the steps of history.
Er, is this the same Li Wei mired in controversy, sidelined in the locker room? Is this the Li Wei accused of prioritizing personal gain over the team’s interest, becoming an outsider in the locker room? Is this the Li Wei deemed to lack the confrontation strength and durability, unable to adapt to the intensity of Professional League games?
Are you sure?
Lynn: You media... all these scoundrels in cahoots with Goodell, are you sacrificing me to pave the way for Li Wei? You... you...
Spitting blood.
Internal injury.
Collapsing to the ground.
However, watching Lynn, pale-faced from excessive blood loss, the reporters also felt vexed. They were victims too, weren’t they? They were the ones who were really embarrassed, and though reporters being embarrassed was nothing new, to be so spectacularly face-slapped this time was unbearably frustrating.
Reporter: Mr. Bart, brother! We finally understand your pain. You’ve worked hard!
Bart: Go away, who’s your hard-luck brother? We must draw a line; I’ve barely escaped that bitter life, and I have nothing to do with you—
Finally, after much hesitation and struggle this week, Bart decided to put his faith in the Kansas City Chiefs.
As early as the third week of regular season, Bart had noticed. The more the media doubted and the greater the pressure, the more Li Wei thrived. He was a monster who always managed to surprise under heavy pressure.
Hence, even though the media had been aggressively piling on Li Wei, this time Bart wisely chose to side with him.
Then, Bart finally made a correct prediction—The Kansas City Chiefs won.
Bart was now walking on air, triumphant, refusing to associate with the reporters.
The reporters also realized that even "Football Bailey" had managed to escape the abyss, leaving them to battle alone against Li Wei. At the post-game press conference, one could see their constipated expressions and gloomy faces.
"Li Wei, so... everything’s okay in the Chiefs’ locker room?"
The reporter hesitated subtly, stuttering without getting directly to the point.
Li Wei displayed a sincere expression, "What’s wrong with the locker room?"
Reporter: Pretending! Keep pretending. We’ll believe your "Little Red Riding Hood" act when pigs fly!
"Previously, rumors had it that there was dissent in the Chiefs’ locker room, and longstanding suppressed conflicts finally erupted, leading to some unsightly incidents."
The journalists were desperate, ready to face the music, but they still sought the truth—
After all, defending the truth is the core value of journalism.
"Oh," Li Wei gently lifted his chin.

Uh, that’s it?
The reporter was frantic, "Just, just like that?"
Li Wei, "Yes, just like that. I don’t think there is anything to respond to regarding such baseless and absurd news. The journalists here surely don’t believe it, do you?"
The reporter, "But..."
Wait a minute, can’t expose the identity of the informant.
The reporter, "But during the previous training sessions, there was always something off about the team’s atmosphere. You kept your distance from other players and trained alone. What was the reason for this?"
Li Wei, "Are you trying to spy on our training secrets for other teams?"
Reporter: Slander!
Anger made them forget that it was an open training session for the Kansas City Chiefs, and obviously, they weren’t trying to hide anything. Where then could there be any claim of journalists spying on secrets?
Wait, open training? So they knew everything the journalists saw?
It seemed they had discovered something.
Li Wei nonchalantly revealed a smile and faced the scrutinizing eyes of the crowd with ease.
"I’m not sure what tabloid news you’ve heard through the grapevine, but truth is the first element of news. In the age of social media, the falsity and confusion of news sources can easily lead to wrong judgments. It is precisely because of this that the ’two-source rule’ policy, a tradition that dates back to classical journalism, should be upheld even more. All of you here are professionals and surely do not need me, a professional football player, to point that out, right?"
The so-called two-source rule means that any news report should be confirmed by at least two reliable sources. Generally, three to five sources may be needed, but considering the secrecy and importance of exclusive news, it might be impossible to find that many, so two sources are the minimum—

Reliable, verified, and personally reviewed and judged by the reporter as a professional opinion... two news sources.
If not?
Then if the news breaks as false, the reporter must swallow the bitter pill.
For instance, right now.
Li Wei’s subtle counterattack silenced the press room.
One step at a time, the reporters were in disarray. Even though they knew they had fallen into Li Wei’s trap, it ultimately came down to their own greed; their sordid little schemes were not presentable.
What more could they say?
Suddenly, someone remembered something important: Li Wei was an outstanding student in the journalism major at the University of Alabama. So was this... a case of the flood hitting the Dragon King Temple?
The journalists on the scene looked at each other, for a moment at a loss for a response.
"Li Wei, does the Kansas City Chiefs feel fully confident for this season’s playoffs?"
Since attacks were ineffective, then surely flattery would do no harm.
In reality, this was also a trap. The journalists had already thought through their follow-up reports. The Kansas City Chiefs had not even secured a playoff spot yet, but they were already eager to shed the tag of playoff fatigue. Such haste might come across as arrogance.
Just a little shakeup, and the still not completely secure Kansas City Chiefs would get nervous again, undoubtedly causing more uncertainty in the upcoming games.
Killing with praise can often be deadly without leaving a trace.
However, Li Wei’s crisp answer snuffed out the flame.
"Right now, my only focus is on the Miami Dolphins."
