Cross Fire Episode 20 Recap
> Cross Fire Recap
Su Jiayi tried to teach Nezha how to earn money through live streaming, but the dull Nezha just couldn't learn. Nezha had been short on money recently. Cheng Hao accidentally discovered that he was chatting with a female netizen and had even transferred a lot of money to her. He thought Nezha must have gone crazy to believe such a scammer. The Steel Coin Team and the Tiger Team met head-on.
Chen Hu, the captain of the Tiger Team, was very arrogant. The usually humble Xiao Feng also stopped being low-key, and both sides exchanged harsh words. The computers of Lu Xiaobei's team were not high-end, so they naturally lost during practice, moving as slowly as turtles. The main team players scoffed at them and then went back to sleep. Everyone looked at Lu Xiaobei and asked him what they should do.
Lu Xiaobei proposed a quick attack at the start, admitting that they were indeed inferior to the main team in terms of tactical coordination. Lu Xiaobei wanted to find a mentor. Anyway, they were substitutes now and had plenty of time to study tactics. While everyone was eating hotpot, the hotel lost power. After the power came back, the landlady rushed over to check. Xiao Feng and the others quickly put away the hotpot.
To avoid inspection, Xiao Feng carried a quick-heating pot into the bathroom and unexpectedly encountered Chen Hu from the Tiger Team. He was there for the same reason as Xiao Feng. The landlady roared outside. The two quickly hid the quick-heating pot and pretended to be taking a bath. After the landlady came in, she screamed three times and ran away. Afterward, the Steel Coin Team and the Tiger Team ate hotpot together, and the atmosphere suddenly became harmonious.
Both sides began to complain about how difficult it was to come to Shenzhen this time. They said that no matter whether they won or lost the match tomorrow, as long as they could gather today, they were all brothers. Everyone happily raised their glasses and took a group photo. An Lan couldn't hold her liquor, so Xiao Feng quickly protected her by his side. It was Su Jiayi's birthday today.
Her boyfriend, Steve, specifically returned to the country to ask her to get back together. Seeing this, Wang Kai was extremely depressed. Lu Xiaobei and the others hid nearby, watching the drama unfold. They heard that Steve's family was in finance and that his family's swimming pool was even larger than a club's. Seeing Steve kneeling on one knee with flowers, Lu Xiaobei and Cheng Hao began to bet on whether Su Jiayi would accept them.
To everyone's surprise, Su Jiayi accepted the flowers and cake, and asked Steve to have dinner with her teammates that evening. The atmosphere that evening was very awkward. Wang Kai arrived dressed strangely, immediately drank three penalty cups upon entering, and then started playing finger-guessing games with Steve. After making a wish, Su Jiayi broke up with Steve. She didn't want to go against her heart; all she wanted now was to play esports well.
Su Jiayi had always wanted to be the girlfriend Steve desired, trying so hard that she forgot her original self. She didn't want to lie to herself anymore. Steve left. Su Jiayi nonchalantly began cutting the cake. Since the Blue Fish Team disbanded, she had joined seventeen teams, but none of them had ever advanced past the Hundred Cities League.
No serious team was willing to recruit her; those teams were only interested in pursuing her and never treated her as a teammate. It wasn't until Lu Xiaobei found Su Jiayi that a team finally sought her out not to chase girls. They were the best teammates she had ever met, and Su Jiayi didn't want to lose them. Late at night, everyone gathered to watch Su Jiayi's live stream.
Su Jiayi, who had always appeared in cosplay, revealed her true self. She found satisfaction daily in fulfilling her vanity. The saddest thing was that when she met a group of friends who loved her, she still didn't dare to show her true self. Today was Su Jiayi's 21st birthday. She was very glad that she, an ordinary, self-abasing, and unremarkable person, decided to be herself starting today.
Everyone in the bullet comments supported Su Jiayi, proclaiming that from now on, she would only be herself. The next day, Su Jiayi returned to her true self and regained her confidence. Today, Lu Xiaobei's team won against the main team. The main team members were somewhat angry, thinking they had used cheats, and even checked their computers, but found nothing. The police suddenly arrived at the hotel. Xu Wei instinctively ran, but still couldn't get away.
The police were only there for an inspection. After Xiao Feng and the others showed their ID cards, they explained that they had simply used a quick-heating pot to eat hotpot. The police didn't say anything, but Xu Wei's expression remained dazed; that car accident lingered in his mind. Today was the match between the Steel Coin Team and the Tiger Team. Xu Wei was in very poor condition because of that incident, and An Lan and Houzi watched anxiously.
After losing two consecutive rounds, Xiao Feng decided to have Houzi replace Xu Wei. Chen Hu was unfamiliar with Houzi, which gave them an advantage. Under Xiao Feng's command and coordination, the Steel Coin Team successfully won the match. Chen Hu accepted his defeat graciously, wishing Xiao Feng to definitely win the national championship, as losing to a champion wouldn't be shameful for him! After the match, Xiao Feng came to comfort Xu Wei.
Everyone could see that he was not in good form today, but Xu Wei stubbornly denied it. Xiao Feng stared at Xu Wei and suddenly asked him if he liked An Lan. Xu Wei did not deny it. Xiao Feng chuckled, saying that he also liked An Lan, for who wouldn't like such a wonderful girl? However, the two reached an agreement that no matter whom An Lan ultimately chose, it would not affect their relationship.
Wang Kai had been avoiding Su Jiayi recently. Suddenly, the main team players rushed into the dormitory, claiming they were going to catch a thief. Lu Xiaobei could only let them search. As a result, they indeed found Nezha's wallet under his bed, and the fifteen hundred yuan inside was gone. Nezha declared that he hadn't stolen anything and, in a fit of anger, got into a scuffle with the other party. As a result, Nezha's phone was thrown downstairs by them. Nezha felt that no one believed him and, in a fit of anger, jumped down from the balcony.
