Chapter 1357: 1357
As their captain left, the other member from the Japanese would definitely follow behind him . Watanabe glanced back at You Sixin’s back view and turned towards the other side . “Vice-captain…”
“Go ahead, I’ll watch a little more . ” Hoshino lifted his lips . The smile was difficult to reject .
Watanabe realized their vice-captain was definitely interested in Spade Z . This interest was over the top! There wasn’t love in esports but his vice-captain… Watanabe shook his head, a meaningful expression on his face .
Hoshino wasn’t bothered about the misunderstanding . His gaze was focused on Bo Jiu the entire time .
It was an exhilarating match . Whenever the footage shifted to Bo Jiu, they would always see her keen response, her layout strategy, the precise predictions, and the timely support she gave her teammates . She wasn’t just commanding; at the most crucial point, she could step in and take lives .
But Theo wasn’t weak and would never allow themselves to be disadvantaged, returning the kills and balancing the score . They took just one life from Supreme Alliance .
The team battle went on for fifty minutes .
During the last face off, Theo was still trying to counter Bo Jiu’s predictions . But this time, Bo Jiu didn’t predict anything . Instead, she used her best playing style, taking all their attackers with her – sacrificing her life with three of theirs .
After causing an explosive impact, Theo’s adc, top lane, and sorcerer were all dead . How could they continue? Supreme Alliance went straight ahead, destroying Theo’s crystal city!
The image was pulled back .
Bo Jiu removed her earpiece, grabbing a bottle of mineral water . They won! She wasn’t just the team’s assassin; she was also Supreme Alliance’s leader . That last trade off was more than worthy . It was almost an exact replica of Almighty Qin’s routines!
Soon, the results were flashed onto the screen . The MVP of the entire match was Spade Z! The antis were struck speechless . Aside from Qin Mo, there hadn’t been any other Chinese player who could obtain such results!
It was noisy and festive both inside and outside the arena . After three years, this was the closest the Chinese team had been to the championship . The reporters waited impatiently, dying to score an interview with Bo Jiu . The audience was cheering . Other than Xue Yaoyao, who was beside Bo Jiu, no one else knew how pale she was .
During the match, she had accidentally touched her arm . Xue Yaoyao had stiffened, the heat from her arm so hot it had thrown her off . Her Highness Jiu was running a fever . That had been her first reaction . But before she could do anything, Bo Jiu had turned and instructed, “Don’t leave the middle lane, Yaoyao, focus . ”
Xue Yaoyao could only focus because ending the competition was the only way she could rest . Perhaps, her teammates were the only ones that knew the condition she had competed in .
The crowd started to grow as Bo Jiu downed more water . Xue Yaoyao turned and blocked her .
Bo Jiu knew she had a fever since her breath was hot . Hence, she kept drinking water . Xue Yaoyao smiled . “Don’t worry, it’s still manageable . ”
“Manager Feng will deal with the press . ” Xue Yaoyao took a moment before adding, “You can leave from behind, Coco will follow you . ”
Coco wasn’t aware of what had happened, his face bright and smiley from the joy of winning the competition . Xue Yaoyao informed Feng Yi via text .
Once Feng Yi saw the text, he immediately signaled his assistant and blocked the crowd that was inching in . “Friends of the media, I understand your desire to interview the players but calm down, there will be a chance as long as you take turns…”
He signaled the back for them to take her away . Xue Yaoyao didn’t waste any time, blocking Bo Jiu with Coco on her other side and moving her backstage to Supreme Alliance’s lounge area .
“Fever?” Coco’s handsome face fell . “How did you get a fever?”
Bo Jiu didn’t explain and smiled in silence . She opened the closet and removed the team uniform, taking Lin Feng’s black down jacket with her .
“Hey, Little Spade you’re burning up, where are you going?” Coco held her down . “Don’t you dare go anywhere! Once Old Fox is done there, he will bring you to the hospital for a jab . ”
Bo Jiu pushed his arm away . “It’s just a small cold, there’s something I have to do . ”
“What do you have to do?” Coco wasn’t going to let her go since he could feel the heat from beneath her clothes . “Where did you go yesterday? How did you end up in such a state?”
Bo Jiu took another mouthful of water in order to clear her mind . “I didn’t go anywhere . ”
Coco knew something had happened yesterday .
At the start, his captain had gone out to get Little Spade candy but next, he had disappeared . Little Spade had gone out in search of him and had ended up staying out the entire night . The next time she had appeared, she had been alone .

Coco hadn’t asked where their captain was because he was afraid it would hurt her even more . But how did she end up in such a state? Could it be?
“You didn’t sleep the entire night?” Coco asked with wide eyes .
Bo Jiu stiffened but she didn’t reply . She reached for a black mask and wore it, prepared to walk out .
Then Coco knew he was right and his eyes wide with disbelief . He was half right, Bo Jiu hadn’t just stayed awake the entire night, she had done it so that Qin Mo could see her and had waited downstairs for an hour . Moreover, in order to taint the competition, she had worn a dress that wasn’t the least bit warm .
Perhaps, no one could see your efforts . Only your friends could feel your pain .
Xue Yaoyao looked up at the sky, afraid she would tear . Her heart was in pain .
Coco wanted to call Feng Yi over because he seemed like the only person who could stop her and bring her for a jab . But Bo Jiu reached out and held onto him . “Coco, I have to go now to Brother Mo or I’ll lose him again . ”
At that moment, he couldn’t seem to make the call because he shouldn’t stop her .
Bo Jiu smiled . With her mask on, only her dark eyes were in sight . The long down jacket concealed her figure perfectly . She wasn’t trying to act in a melodrama . Bo Jiu knew she had to get better but the more she walked, the heavier her breathing became . That was when she realized this body couldn’t withstand a high fever .
Gradually, her hearing was affected, the noise turning muffled and unclear . It seemed like reporters had barged in…
At this moment, Bo Jiu heard another voice . “Hoshino! It’s Hoshino! What is he doing here?”
Hoshino glanced over and with the other hand, he stealthily tossed a bottle of medicine over . Bo Jiu caught it, watching as he stood there – deliberately blocking her from sight . With a turn, she successfully moved towards the exit .
The reporters didn’t see what happened and since Hoshino could generate more attention, they focused on him instead . Hoshino smiled lightly, answering their questions until Feng Yi arrived . He nodded lightly, stuffed his hands into his pockets, and left .
Feng Yi wasn’t dumb . With one look, he knew Hoshino had been doing his job for him . Both of them walked towards the lounge area .

Once they were out of sight, Feng Yi spoke, “Thank you . ”
Hoshino stilled and smiled . “It’s nothing . ”
“From the information I received, you aren’t someone that would do such things . ” Feng Yi smiled .
Hoshino remained calm . “Seems like your information isn’t accurate, I’m a rather kind person . Besides, I’m looking forward to the match tomorrow . Of course, I wouldn’t want my rival to be affected by such trivial things . ”
“Is she just a rival?” Feng Yi didn’t beat around the bush, going straight to the point .
Hoshino smiled . “Seems like everyone knew I like Z . That’s right, she isn’t just a rival, she is family to me . ”
Family? Feng Yi was thoroughly confused . He had assumed Hoshino’s actions had been out of love but he had said family . Feng Yi wasn’t sure though…
At this instant, Fan Jia had started a countdown in a building in the west side of the city . Four more hours and the person in front would truly become hers . But there was something that made her frown . Ever since this morning, he had been standing in front of the window in silence . Regardless of what she said, he would reply with at most one or two words .
Fan Jia hated it . The more she thought about it, the more it seemed like he was trying to see someone that wasn’t there . She clenched her fists, sounding him out once more . It was obvious he was following her instructions .
Fan Jia perked up . Just as she was about to leave, she realized he had turned back to the window . There was a cab there and someone alighted the cab, wearing a long down jacket that went to her ankles . She glanced up towards them . Next, that person walked towards the Lamborghini .
Initially, Fan Jia didn’t realize it was Bo Jiu . But the moment she appeared, Qin Mo’s eyes seemed to light up . Fan Jia was jealous .
She was standing right in front of him but yet, he wouldn’t take a glance at her . She thought it was just his personality but now, it seemed like it wasn’t enough . She would have to put an end to it! Malice seeped out from her eyes as she watched the figure outside .
Bo Jiu wasn’t sure what was happening but she couldn’t just stand outside for the sake of her health . Hence, her first reaction was to enter the car .
When Little Blackie heard her voice, it perked up . “Master, your little vixen is still upstairs and hasn’t come down at all, don’t worry . ”

Bo Jiu felt more at ease after she arrived but right now, she wasn’t worried if the Almighty had left, she was worried about the time . Time was tickling by and she didn’t have any solutions to restore his memory . If…
Bo Jiu pulled open her collar and leaned her head against the steering wheel, taking a pill . Even so, the intelligent system managed to pick up her burning temperature .
Little Blackie spoke again, “Master, the statistics shows that your body has reached its limits . As the almighty car of the Fifth Avenue, I am obliged to advise you with my professional knowledge . You need treatment . Oh, why isn’t Grandfather Butler around? If he’s here, he would never allow you to act so recklessly . ”
Bo Jiu remained silent, maintaining her position . Little Blackie was starting to panic, flashing its headlights rapidly so that someone was alerted .
Upstairs, Qin Mo was still standing in front of the window . He thought that after that person appeared, he would soon see the face that could somehow put him at ease . But after five minutes, she was still in the car .
Qin Mo tapped his long legs, starting to feel uneasy . He turned, prepared to head downstairs .
Fan Jia noticed the change in his emotions and laughed lightly . “Brother Mo, where are you going? If you go, who is going to protect me? They are still watching me and the moment you leave, the sniper would open fire . ”
Her words seemed to work because Qin Mo stuffed his hand into his pocket and stopped moving . His heart was opposing his actions though . It hurt . The instant he stopped, he felt a piercing ache in his chest .
He leaned against the wall, his hand holding the amulet as though it would lessen the pain .
Fan Jia wanted to take the chance to remove the amulet as she really hated its sight! Besides, Qin Mo was at his weakest right now . At this moment, if the item he depended on the most was gone, he wouldn’t behave as he did just now . He wouldn’t pay any more attention to Z!
Fan Jia reached over and continued to affect him with her words . “Brother Mo, you must feel terrible right now . I know I gave you that amulet and that it’s heavy . I will keep it for you, you’re going to spoil it like that . ”
Qin Mo’s eyes turned bloody . His hands wanted to move but the voice within him kept telling him not to harm the person in front of him and that he needed to protect her . The voice was a curse burned into his mind .
Fan Jia knew the last step was about to be completed . She smiled and reached out to take the amulet . But the moment she moved his hands away from the amulet, his hands raised up . With a sharp tear, the amulet was pulled open and something rolled out onto the ground…
