Cross Fire Episode 29 Recap
> Cross Fire Recap
Wang Kai and Su Jiayi had another conflict, and Su Jiayi's training performance consequently declined. Qilin said there was progress and asked Lu Xiaobei to come to his company. Lu Xiaobei quickly got up. Wang Kai was somewhat dissatisfied with this, feeling that he was always hanging out with Qilin and not bringing them along, which was disloyal. Su Jiayi suddenly ran to the restroom and vomited for a long time. Wang Kai was very worried.
Qilin contacted the game company. Their reply was that the data had been deleted, but they understood that this data often had backups, provided there was a cloud tracker. Qilin bought this cloud tracker with money, and his staff were still trying to find an entry point. In the game, Xiao Feng returned to his home and saw his mother had prepared dinner, sitting at the table with his father, waiting for him to eat.
However, in an instant, his parents were gone. Xiao Feng arrived in another space full of zombies, and the game failed again. Lu Xiaobei returned to the club. Chu Ge, with a sour face, asked him where he had been. When they were friends, Lu Xiaobei told her everything, but ever since she became the team leader, they hardly spoke. Lu Xiaobei awkwardly said that he also had his own privacy.
Chu Ge unhappily prepared to leave, stating that Lu Xiaobei hadn't focused on training at all these past two days, so she would keep a close eye on his training. Su Jiayi's period was late, so she disguised herself and went to a pharmacy to buy a pregnancy test kit, but she couldn't understand the results. Wang Kai noticed Su Jiayi wasn't herself recently and quickly went to comfort her, but Su Jiayi ignored him and rushed to the hospital.
Fortunately, Su Jiayi was not pregnant, but the doctor said her condition was more serious than pregnancy. Besides common ailments among esports players, she also had relatively severe spontaneous pneumothorax, which could be life-threatening if serious. There are significant differences between male and female bodies, so Su Jiayi couldn't be compared to others. The doctor asked her to come for a follow-up on Wednesday, but Su Jiayi resolutely refused, stating that the competition was more important to her.
Leaving the hospital, Su Jiayi bought birth control pills that could delay her period. Back at the club, Su Jiayi immediately showed concern for Wang Kai, who still had a sour face. Wang Kai was still angry about the previous incident, and they had another argument. An Lan, the manager of Gravity, found Wang Kai and instigated, saying that everyone believed Wang Kai's current achievements were only possible because Lu Xiaobei gave up the main attack position.
So, she proposed that Wang Kai join Gravity, as Xu Wei thought highly of him. If Wang Kai was willing to live forever in Lu Xiaobei's shadow and never stand out, he could choose to refuse. Wang Kai hesitated. Su Jiayi's illness worsened, and her performance during matches was poor. She even fainted directly at the competition venue. Everyone came to the hospital to visit her. They already knew about Su Jiayi's physical condition.
Wang Kai, worried about her, almost got into another argument with Su Jiayi, but Chu Ge knew that Su Jiayi was taking birth control pills to avoid her period during matches. Su Jiayi's bag was left at the competition venue, and someone found the box of birth control pills inside. Now, it's highly discussed online. Su Jiayi scrolled through the comments, trembling with anger.
Everyone comforted her, saying she hadn't done anything wrong and that from now on, they were all Su Jiayi's family. Wang Kai picked up his suitcase and told everyone that he was leaving the team to join Gravity, because only there could he win a championship. Everyone was furious, cursing Wang Kai as a traitor, but Wang Kai stubbornly took off his wristband and left.
Lu Xiaobei felt a bit melancholic, thinking perhaps this was life, that no one could stay together forever. Chu Ge understood Lu Xiaobei's feelings. They had finally trained Wang Kai, only for him to become an opponent. Su Jiayi was also sick. Not to mention advancing, they couldn't even gather five people to play the match. Gravity had a substitute named Xiangzi, and Lu Xiaobei wanted to poach him. Xu Wei gave Wang Kai the same treatment as Sun Qi.
The various high-tech facilities at the Gravity club were things Wang Kai had never seen before. Xiangzi was poached by Chu Ge for the Continuation team. He had betrayed Lu Xiaobei before, yet Lu Xiaobei was willing to give him another chance, which left Cheng Hao somewhat baffled. Xiangzi hadn't even played in an official match; could they really play together? Xiangzi held a notebook, taking notes beside them.
It turned out he was analyzing everyone's habits, and he had taken many notes. Lu Xiaobei was very pleased. Xiangzi had indeed made all the preparations. Su Jiayi turned off the internet. Everyone online was cursing her, so it was better not to look. Chu Ge brought her snacks and face masks that everyone had bought to comfort her. Speaking of Wang Kai, Su Jiayi could actually understand him, but agreement was another matter.
Su Jiayi had been putting pressure on herself because everyone thought female players were inferior to male players. Chu Ge deeply sympathized with this, but she understood that she needed to surpass her current self, not the boys next door. Chu Ge told Su Jiayi that she should leverage her strengths. She needed to defeat opponents, not her teammates.
Late at night, Su Jiayi added Wang Kai on WeChat, but Wang Kai did not accept the verification, and they were both conflicted. Gravity had achieved ten consecutive wins, and everyone already recognized them as this year's champions. Tomorrow was the match between Continuation and Gravity. Although no one was optimistic about them, Lu Xiaobei was very confident.
