Cross Fire Episode 36 (Ending) Recap
> Cross Fire Recap
Xu Wei was trapped by Lu Xiaobei and Xiao Feng with nowhere to escape, but then he turned and disappeared. The score was tied. Xiao Feng comforted Lu Xiaobei, telling him he couldn't escape and there would be overtime. Chu Ge and Cheng Hao and others also discovered that Xu Wei had suddenly appeared at the TNT match venue. Lu Xiaobei's injury must be related to him!
Overtime tied again, leading to golden overtime, where one round would decide the winner. Xiao Feng confronted Xu Wei, saying the most regrettable thing he ever did was trusting him. Xu Wei, however, acted as if he would never admit his mistake, making Xiao Feng feel that he was pitiful. The attraction he spoke of – over thirty championships, even top-tier mansions and luxury cars – held no appeal for Xiao Feng.
Because of these things, he had killed Lu Xiaonan by hitting him, murdered Cao Lei, caused Lu Xiaobei to be in a wheelchair for so many years, and now he was a wanted man, escaping abroad to be nothing but a traitor. Xu Wei was truly pathetic. Yet Xu Wei felt it was all because of Xiao Feng; back then, he had only made a small mistake, but Xiao Feng had forced him to surrender.
He believed kind people were often the most pathetic. Xiao Feng was speechless; Xu Wei had clearly lost his mind. The match reached a critical point. If Lu Xiaobei lost, TNT would win the international championship, and Xu Wei would get his visa and be able to stay there smoothly. So, Lu Xiaobei was under great pressure. Lu Xiaobei was trapped. He imagined various ways to break through, but none were feasible.
In the end, he decided to play by instinct. At the most impossible moment, Lu Xiaobei landed a god-like shot. He successfully led the Continues team into the grand finals; they won against TNT! Before everyone could cheer, An Lan arrived with the police. Xu Wei immediately fled. Xiao Feng and Lu Xiaobei chased after him desperately. Xu Wei picked up a fire hydrant and viciously hit Xiao Feng.
At the critical moment, Lu Xiaobei rushed over, and his hand was injured again by Xu Wei. Xu Wei got up and drove away. Although he shook off the police car, he was distracted and hit by a truck. The scene was tragic. When Lu Xiaobei woke up, Xiao Feng was sitting beside him, looking dejected. An Lan explained that Xu Wei had been in a car accident on the road and died on the spot.
Lu Xiaobei felt that Xiao Feng didn't need to be sad, as Xu Wei had originally tried to kill him. Xiao Feng wasn't sad for the present Xu Wei. If time could be changed, he wanted to go back to that summer, for his brother Xu Wei, who had trained with him day and night, cared for him and supported him everywhere, and never complained despite barely having enough to eat.
If he could tell him that losing a game was nothing, winning a championship was nothing, and making mistakes was fine, that life still had a long way to go, as long as he remembered to turn back early. Before he died, Xu Wei was also recalling everything that had happened over the years. He had once told Xiao Feng that the word "failure" did not exist in his dictionary. Perhaps, his fate was already sealed.
During her live stream, Su Jiayi gave Wang Kai a chance to connect. Wang Kai sat right outside her room, saying he liked a girl but he was too stupid. Although this person had many small flaws, she was very loyal, strong, and independent. Their first meeting was in a game; her bullet shot straight into Wang Kai's heart. Perhaps the least needed thing when loving someone is a reason. Su Jiayi lowered her head and smiled.
Wang Kai was eager to confess, "If you are a Matilda who never wants to grow up, I am willing to be a Leon the professional for life!" Su Jiayi abruptly ended the live stream. Wang Kai left disappointed. Ultimately, Su Jiayi couldn't escape her feelings. She opened the door and told Wang Kai that if he wanted to win her back, he would have to try a little harder.
For tomorrow's match, Lu Xiaobei insisted on playing, having argued with Chu Ge for a long time. Xiao Feng gave him a pair of chopsticks and told him he could play if he could pick up sushi with them. Lu Xiaobei failed, but he still refused to give up. In the middle of the night, he ran to find Xiao Feng and picked up the sushi with chopsticks. Xiao Feng sighed helplessly, truly having no way to deal with him.
The next day, Lu Xiaobei played with a fever and an injury. His vision gradually blurred, and for a moment, he couldn't even hear Xiao Feng speaking. Xiao Feng decided to substitute Lu Xiaobei. Faced with his stubbornness, Xiao Feng sternly reprimanded him. He understood that Lu Xiaobei wanted to bring the trophy back to China, but if he kept playing like this, his career would be over!
Lu Xiaobei finally left the field, and at that moment, tears streamed down his face. Cheng Hao entered the game, and Xiao Feng changed the plan. All the spectators in the venue displayed images of the national flag on their phones to cheer for the Continues team; they represented China! The Continues team gradually caught up with the score. Every one of them was shining brightly because Lu Xiaobei had brought them together, allowing them to stage a desperate counterattack.
As Cheng Hao said, they were not just a team but a family. The entire audience waved national flags, cheering for the Continues team, forming a beautiful expanse of Chinese red. However, despite their best efforts, they did not win the match. The team from Brazil won the world championship. Watching the dazzling fireworks, everyone fell silent. But no one looked down on the Continues team, for they were glorious in defeat.
Xiao Feng told them that the game was not over, because no one would always win, nor would they always lose. Lu Xiaobei, with a choked voice, said that next year, they would definitely bring the trophy back together! Xiao Feng comforted everyone, saying that although they lost the match, they achieved something many people pursue their entire lives: self-realization. They lost today's match, but as long as they retained the champion spirit, they would fear no challenge! Shenzhen.
Everyone who had just landed was very worried about online public opinion. There was a lot of criticism online, and people were discussing them animatedly. However, Lu Xiaobei's parents and Xiao Feng's parents, along with Qilin, A Ming, Houzi, and others who came to pick them up, all raised the Continues team wristbands to cheer them on.
It was precisely because of the support from family and friends that they would go on to dominate the professional league in 2021 and 2022. In the 2023 CrossFire World E-sports Grand Finals, the Continues team once again swept the field to claim their fifth championship. In 2024, they lived up to expectations, returned victoriously, successfully avenged themselves against the Brazilian team, and won the world championship!
Three years later, Xiao Feng was nervously preparing to give a speech on stage. The General Administration of Sport established a CrossFire national team, and captain Lu Xiaobei also stood on the podium. In Xiao Feng's era, playing games was seen as not doing proper work, but they inherited the spirit of esports with their own spirit, which led to the current attention that Lu Xiaobei and his peers received.
Xiao Feng said he had been trapped in the game world for a full eleven years. The audience burst into laughter, clearly disbelieving him. Xiao Feng nervously clutched his manuscript. Not only did they disbelieve him, but he himself felt a bit dazed. Fortunately, after waking up, Xiao Feng discovered that esports, like all sports, had gained respect. Just like Lu Xiaobei, he became a national athlete, and from then on, esports received the same respect as all other sports. Esports will get better and better. Refusing to admit defeat is what youth is all about!
