Cross Fire Episode 34 Recap
> Cross Fire Recap
Singapore. The Keep On team was picked up by the organizing committee and taken to the hotel as soon as they got off the plane. Sixteen teams participated in the competition and would be randomly drawn into four groups. The first team in Group A was the Keep On team, and the second was BTON from the Philippines. Their performance was not very good, but it could also be a smoke screen.
Lu Xiaobei felt they should not underestimate their opponents. Given Xu Wei's personality, he would definitely be hiding behind the scenes. Xiao Feng knew he would not appear unless absolutely necessary. The first round was a match between Keep On and BTON. Before the match, Xiao Feng told them to play as they had planned. The first game was not smooth; Lu Xiaobei faced a one-versus-five situation, and in the end, he was outnumbered and lost.
Xiao Feng comforted everyone, saying it was okay and to keep fighting in the next round. In the second game, the Keep On team still failed to regain their form and lost the match. Cheng Hao and Chu Ge believed that BTON had not really exerted themselves in the warm-up match; they were truly actors. BTON knew the Keep On team's tactics too well.
In the third game, Xiao Feng and Lu Xiaobei decided to play mind games with them, changing their tactics. In the end, they completely turned the tide and won the match. The Keep On team became the first team to enter the semifinals. The other semifinal spot would be decided between TNT and the Indonesian team. Ultimately, Japan's TNT won the match without suspense. This meant that in the semifinals, the Keep On team would face TNT.
Xu Wei had not shown up these past few days. Chu Ge went to the organizing committee and asked, but there was no record of this person. Xiao Feng had been watching TNT's matches these past few days and felt they were increasingly similar. Lu Xiaobei was a bit dispirited; he even wondered if they were just having illusions because they wanted revenge too much. Chu Ge told them TNT was in the training room on the second floor.
The two quickly got up and rushed there, but they had already left. Xiao Feng saw some documents in the trash can, and they were in Chinese. How could a Japanese team use Chinese documents! Xiao Feng, Lu Xiaobei, and Chu Ge eagerly chased after TNT, but did not see Xu Wei. In the evening, after studying their tactics, everyone prepared to go for a late-night snack.
Xiao Feng did not go with them; An Lan's flight was about to arrive, and he had to wait for her. Everyone teased An Lan and Xiao Feng upstairs while eating. Chu Ge looked at Lu Xiaobei with a confused expression, and Lu Xiaobei silently picked up some food for her. Suddenly, someone ran up and harassed Su Jiayi. Wang Kai, in a hurry, pushed that person to the ground, and the person just lay there, refusing to get up.
Wang Kai cautiously went forward to check, but was immediately grabbed by the neck by the other person. Soon, a group of people rushed in and firmly controlled them. Lu Xiaobei was held down on the table by several burly men, and his right hand was severely hammered several times with a hammer. Afterwards, those people ran away. Everyone came to their senses and only saw Lu Xiaobei, curled up on the ground, his hands covered in blood. Hospital.
The match was scheduled for tomorrow morning, so Xiao Feng told them to go back to the hotel and sleep, leaving him and Chu Ge to take care of Lu Xiaobei. But no one was in the mood. They all believed their opponents had done this, and that Xu Wei was capable of such a thing. Wang Kai was so angry that he immediately stood up, wanting to settle scores with him.
Xiao Feng quickly lectured them, although he was just as angry. Lu Xiaobei lay on the operating table, grimacing in pain, his mind fixed on tomorrow's match, but his condition absolutely did not allow him to play tomorrow. This night was very difficult. Cheng Hao couldn't sleep and wanted to go see Lu Xiaobei, but Wang Kai called him back. It wasn't just him who was angry and wanted revenge.
What they should do now was get some good rest; tomorrow, Cheng Hao might even have to substitute for Lu Xiaobei. Cheng Hao was very self-reproachful; if he hadn't suggested going out to eat, this situation wouldn't have occurred. They had fought all the way from Ningjiang to the international stage; if they gave up halfway, Lu Xiaobei would definitely collapse! Sun Qi also couldn't sleep and went to talk to Nezha and Xiangzi.
He used to think Lu Xiaobei winning against him that time was just luck, but later realized it wasn't. He possessed an unyielding spirit; even if you beat him in the game, you could never truly defeat him. Lu Xiaobei woke up. Chu Ge comforted him, saying that as long as he rested well, he would recover in less than two months, so he should just treat it as a vacation.
With three and a half hours left until the match, Lu Xiaobei insisted on playing. Chu Ge emotionally stopped him, saying that if he went, he might never be able to play again! It wasn't worth gambling his future just to prove a point. In the semifinals, Keep On would face TNT. This match would determine who would get the ticket to the grand finals, and it was crucial for everyone involved.
An Lan received news that the person caught last night had been questioned. If he could reveal that those people were connected to the Japanese team, they could appeal to the organizing committee. Xiao Feng was feeling very anxious. An Lan encouraged him, telling him to confidently do whatever he wanted to do. As Xiao Feng and An Lan were about to go to the stadium, they encountered a very familiar back. Xiao Feng quickly ran forward. The other person turned around, and it was indeed Xu Wei!
