Cross Fire Episode 5 Recap
> Cross Fire Recap
Lu Xiaobei picked up the postcard. On the back were some words Xiao Feng wrote to him. Lu Xiaobei surprisingly asked his mother where this postcard came from. His mother dramatically said it had been pasted here for over ten years, and that when Lu Xiaobei was little, he even said it was the first postcard he had ever received.
Lu Xiaobei was stunned, and suddenly remembered that Xiao Feng had just said that the Mid-Autumn Festival was in a few days. Lu Xiaobei told his brother about this strange thing. He didn't expect that there would really be an extra postcard at home, which proved that he was really Xiao Feng, and the Xiao Feng from 2008. In other words, whatever Xiao Feng changed in 2008, 2019 would also change accordingly.
As long as Xiao Feng prevented Lu Xiaonan from doing that thing, he could survive! Wang Kai fell in love with Su Jiayi at first sight and often got distracted and absent-minded in the game. Wang Kai's parents told him to quickly get a visa and go to Vietnam to find them, but Wang Kai refused, worrying that no one would take care of his grandmother if he left.
As the two were walking, neighborhood aunties ran up to gossip, saying that Wang Kai didn't work all day and only knew how to play games. His grandmother, however, righteously told them that it was esports, a sports activity recognized by the country. Chu Ge suddenly snatched Lu Xiaobei's bracelet. Lu Xiaobei became emotional; this was left to him by Lu Xiaonan. Chu Ge quickly returned it to him, telling him to keep it safe.
Chu Ge said she would do rehabilitation training for Lu Xiaobei after school. Lu Xiaobei refused, saying he had something on that night, but promised to send her the homework answers. Lu Xiaobei had Cheng Hao inquire about Xiao Feng's address. The two rushed over but found that the place had already been demolished and no one had lived there for four or five years. Monkey was getting married.
Xu Wei came to deliver an invitation to Xiao Feng, and also to pick up some forgotten items. Xu Wei struggled to carry two large boxes, preparing to leave, and saw women's slippers placed nearby, feeling quite sour about it. Xiao Feng stood with his hands on his hips, watching as if it were a show. Lu Xiaobei lingered in Xiao Feng's dilapidated house.
Xiao Feng had lost contact with everyone over the years, and no one had seen him again. This address was also difficult to find. The director, with a smirk, used the excuse of imparting workplace experience to ask Xiao Feng to buy KFC. When Xiao Feng brought it back, the director wouldn't pay, saying he would give the money next time, and also criticized Xiao Feng for only buying burgers and fries.
Xiao Feng quickly went to exchange it for another flavor for him. When he returned, he heard the director on the phone with a friend, repeatedly saying that he couldn't let these children be idle and had to manage them with his own methods. Xiao Feng immediately felt a bit lost, wondering what he even was. The director disliked that the KFC Xiao Feng bought back was cold, then scolded him harshly before throwing it into the trash can.
An Lan cleaned the house and asked Xiao Feng if he still wanted the notes he took while playing games. Xiao Feng hardened his heart and told her to throw them away. An Lan didn't expect that Xiao Feng would actually diligently take notes while playing games. Xiao Feng became interested and started explaining gaming to An Lan. Xiao Feng gave An Lan the facial masks, snacks, and toothbrushes that the company had given as benefits.
An Lan actually didn't use facial masks, but Xiao Feng said a girl's face was very important and told her to take good care of it. Chu Ge had a headache looking at her test paper with a score of just over ten points. Lu Xiaobei comforted her, saying at least she knew her true level, and just needed to figure out what she didn't understand, just like playing games.
After finishing rehabilitation training, Lu Xiaobei trembled, looking like he had nothing to live for. Cheng Hao saw this and thought he was bullied at school, loudly declaring he would stand up for him. He also introduced his good brother to Lu Xiaobei, saying he would help him out at school. Lu Xiaobei didn't expect that Cheng Hao's good brother was actually his deskmate, Chu Ge.
After Cheng Hao, unaware of the truth, indignantly declared he would break the legs of Lu Xiaobei's deskmate, Chu Ge slapped both of them hard and left coolly. Cheng Hao and Lu Xiaobei were somewhat bewildered. Cheng Hao said that Chu Ge's stepfather was his distant cousin, and that the mother and daughter had a very difficult time at home, with beatings and scoldings being common. Wang Kai almost got kicked out because he couldn't afford internet fees.
Lu Xiaobei paid for him, but Wang Kai didn't appreciate it. Wang Kai met Su Jiayi on the street. Lu Xiaobei popped out and persuaded him to join his team. Su Jiayi also handed him a slice of pizza. It turned out that Lu Xiaobei had asked Su Jiayi to recruit Wang Kai back into the team, and in return, he promised to install a bathtub for her.
Wang Kai immediately agreed when he heard that everyone in the team lived together. Monkey got married. Xiao Feng came, having put an IOU in the red envelope. Xiao Feng and Xu Wei sat at the same table, and the atmosphere was a bit strange. Xiao Feng wanted to persuade Xu Wei to reconcile with Linlin, but Xu Wei acted indifferent. Lu Xiaobei was caught playing on his phone in class by the school.
Lu Xiaobei quickly shoved the phone onto Chu Ge, and both were criticized. Chu Ge told Lu Xiaobei to seriously tutor her in the future, and the two added each other on WeChat. After the wedding, Xiao Feng, Xu Wei, Monkey, and others were still drinking. Monkey was simply and roughly dragged away by his wife. Xiao Feng suggested playing a game later, but Xu Wei refused.
The two argued again, wishing they could just fight it out to vent their anger. Both Xu Wei and Xiao Feng were angry. Xu Wei resented Xiao Feng for disbanding the team. Although Xiao Feng now had a stable job, in Xu Wei's eyes, he was still no different from those confused young people, the only difference being that Xiao Feng was no longer young. Xiao Feng froze. Qilin and Xu Wei started fighting again in an instant.
Xiao Feng picked up his coat and went home, feeling a bit disheartened. Xiao Feng opened the game and met Lu Xiaobei again. Lu Xiaobei excitedly told him that he had received the postcard he sent. He found that the duration of their previous calls was always two minutes and thirty seconds. However, Xiao Feng was very drunk and didn't clearly hear what he said, only asking Lu Xiaobei who was on their team when they won the championship.
Lu Xiaobei quickly told him what he had found out. Xiao Feng heard an unfamiliar name, 24k, in it. Lu Xiaobei's mother came to bring him an apple. Lu Xiaobei quickly hid the computer. His mother stood by, slowly peeling the apple for him. Xiao Feng in the game found it amusing that Lu Xiaobei wasn't moving. Lu Xiaobei quickly stuffed the apple into his mouth.
After his mother left, Lu Xiaobei quickly opened the computer and asked Xiao Feng for help, begging him to find a boy named Lu Xiaonan and stop him from watching that CrossFire match on November 22nd. Xiao Feng drunkenly agreed. Time passed, and the two returned to reality again. Xiao Feng wrote Lu Xiaobei's request on a piece of paper.
