A brief, memorable moment won't determine the outcome of this match.

Their own crystal still exploded.

Zhu Shiyi came out to check the data: Marco Polo, output rate 8%, participation rate 12%.

"Marco, switch to human assistance, switch to human assistance." Zhu Shiyi shook his head in anguish.

"I'll take Marco's place," Pan Yue said, his voice brimming with eagerness.

"Should I not play Yao?" Zhu Shiyi hesitated again, "But I can only carry if I play mid lane."

Ma Yao is a popular support/shooter combination, and its strength is not low after reaching level four.

"Then I'll play jungle," Pan Yue said.

The synergy between mid and jungle is indeed quite useful.

Is he thinking about her?

Zhu Shiyi thought for a moment and said, "It's okay, you play Marco, and I'll play Yao to carry you."

She was just joking.

Yao is a support hero, and not particularly strong on her own. She can choose to ride on a teammate's head, giving them a shield, and adding some crowd control and damage, making her a common support hero for skilled players carrying female teammates.

Therefore, Yao's strength lies in following the right expert.

A master.

......

Zhu Shiyi recalls her embarrassing past relationships.

Back then, she was just a newbie when she met a jungler who gave her the blue buff.

After the match ended, her opponent invited her to play together, asking her to play Yao so he could carry the team.

In Eternal Diamond, Zhu Shiyi first met the strongest player in her village who brought her the village emblem.

They fell in love online after a while.

It turned out the other party was just playing around.

A month or two later, the novelty wore off, and the other person started disappearing.

As the initial enthusiasm subsided, Zhu Shiyi also lowered his head.

The two broke up unhappily.

The new match began amidst scattered thoughts.

Zhu Shiyi secretly observed Pan Yue's actions.

He was only level one, yet he dared to go up and face off against Yu Ji.

Zhu Shiyi was scared half to death.

Marco Polo is arguably the weakest marksman in Tier 1.

"Come back, come back!" Zhu Shiyi urged, using Yao Mei's body to shield Marco. "Our level 1 damage is too low."

"It's alright." Marco Polo used his first skill to its full potential and then chased after Yu Ji with basic attacks, leaving both of them with low health.

Yao positioned herself to catch Sun Bin's first skill, the flying disc, blocking some of the damage.

The enemy Yu Ji raises her hand, and Zhu Shiyi, constantly observing the skill's animation, tells her: "Dodge Yu Ji's first skill!"

Marco Polo sidestepped, and Yu Ji's first skill missed.

He used the dizziness skill again, followed up with two basic attacks, and secured the first blood.

Zhu Shiyi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

A troublesome marksman player.

After reaching level four, Zhu Shiyi hung a hat on Pan Yue's head and kept a close watch on Pan Yue, who was frantically flirting with death.

"Don't attack! Don't attack!" Zhu Shiyi kept emphasizing, her heart pounding with fear and her nerves on edge. "She has a second skill that makes her immune to damage..."

The final note fades from heavy to light.

Marco Polo immediately stunned Yu Ji and then used his ultimate, keeping her rooted in place.

Zhu Shiyi straightened her back considerably and quickly anticipated the movement, jumping down.

Once Yu Ji is out of control, she will definitely use her ultimate skill after she realizes what's happening.

Most of Yu Ji's ultimate skills automatically lock onto the enemy with the lowest health. During the laning phase, she deliberately lowers her own health, preparing to unleash her ultimate skill at any moment.

As expected, Yu Ji's ultimate skill kicked Yao, triggering Yao's passive ability, making her immune to transforming into a deer.

Zhu Shiyi quickly clicked to transform back into human form, then unleashed his ultimate move, using the Deer Spirit for protection. His shield-spreading maneuver was fluid and masterful.

Although the enemy Yu Ji activated her second skill to reduce damage, her health was too low, and she was completely overwhelmed and killed by Yao's damage.

"Thanks to Sun Bin," Zhu Shiyi breathed a sigh of relief, "if he had unleashed his ultimate move and you had interrupted it, we would both have died."

“His ultimate skill is still on cooldown,” Pan Yue flashed back to the tower, “You can use a health pack.”

Zhu Shiyi had even lower health, but without hesitation, he consumed the marksman's health pack.

This game is going smoothly for Pan Yue, who is playing more and more skillfully.

He would unleash his ultimate attack almost as soon as he saw someone, catching both teammates and opponents completely off guard.

Zhu Shiyi shuddered as he used every skill imaginable – the first skill's projectile control, the active equipment's shield, and the healing spell.

She just happened to get a triple kill.

Marco Polo, with Yao by his side, fought four opponents, terrifying Zhu Shiyi to the point of losing his soul.

“I deserved that triple kill,” Zhu Shiyi patted his chest to catch his breath. “You were too brave.”

"Take the blue buff." Pan Yue used his first skill again and then stopped attacking the blue buff.

Zhu Shiyi jumped down and launched a brutal attack on the blue buff, taking the power of the Azure Statue.

After acquiring a wave of resources, Pan Yue led Zhu Shiyi directly to the high ground.

The five opponents are grouped together, clearing the minion wave.

"Don't do anything reckless—" the archer begged, "Don't be reckless!"

"Showtime!"

"Holy crap!" Zhu Shiyi's heart leaped into his throat.

Marco Polo goes straight up and hits five targets, followed by a summoner spell and two stuns from Ice Armor.

Yao quickly gave him whatever she had: "Give me a full-size one!"

Marco Polo with six items deals massive damage; his ultimate skill, activated in two seconds, can instantly kill three opponents.

However, the opponent had all their skills available, and Marco was unfortunately trapped in place, while Yao was knocked down.

"I still have a passive ability!" Zhu Shiyi spoke faster, manipulating Yao to walk onto Mozi's face. Mozi cooperated, using his ultimate to control himself, and Meimei gave Yao a shield, helping her ride back onto Marco's head.

Marco swept the blade across the ground, and Mozi died on the spot.

"Quadra kill!" The announcement of a quadra kill is exhilarating.

So cool!

"Hurry, hurry, go for it!" With a pentakill imminent, his excitement threshold was pushed to the limit, his adrenaline was surging, and his blood was rushing to his brain. Zhu Shiyi no longer cared about being steady. "Give me a pentakill!"

Marco uses his second skill to flash in and chases after the enemy jungler, auto-attacking him.

Zhu Shiyi subconsciously activated her second skill to deal additional damage, but suddenly realized something was wrong and quickly jumped down to disconnect the skill's damage.

"You have slain an enemy."

......

The spell, already cast, could not be retrieved, and the last kill of the pentakill fell into Yao's hands.

"Damn it..." Zhu Shiyi was genuinely regretful, "Why did you steal it from me!"

She became deeply immersed in the emotions, putting on a mask of pain: "I was wrong, what did I do? I shouldn't have just started it."

A pentakill!

A pentakill that every player dreams of!

She'd been playing the game for over two years and never managed to get a five-kill streak!

"What does it have to do with anything?" was expected.

Pan Yue did not utter a single word of blame.

"Ah, I really am guilty." Zhu Shiyi slapped her forehead. Although he certainly wouldn't blame her, she was genuinely remorseful.

His words carried an unconscious hint of apology: "Why did I activate that second skill?!"

“Think about it another way,” Pan Yue’s voice was calm yet powerful, “It is I who am guilty.”

“I shouldn’t have stolen your other four kills,” he said with a slight smile. “You were the one who carried the team with Yao.”

Zhu Shiyi suddenly laughed out loud: "You really know how to comfort people."

The opposing team is wiped out, game over, go directly to the crystal.

Zhu Shiyi controlled Yao, and with a mischievous glint in his eye, she ran to the spring on the other side.

The spring water spewed out a fatal blow.

She spotted her nearest teammate, Lan, and used her ultimate skill to jump, becoming immune to the damage from the fountain.

But for some reason, it landed on Marco Polo's head.

What Zhu Shiyi didn't see was...

Amidst all the taunting recall maneuvers, Marco Polo, righteously pointing at the tower, seemed out of place.

The moment I saw her run into the enemy fountain, I instinctively used my second skill, Flash—

He stood calmly and steadily in front of the spring on the opposite side.

On the screen, we welcome Yao Mei, dressed in a princess dress, who has been causing trouble at someone else's house.

A light, cheerful humming sound reached my ears.

"......kid."

The voice was very low and soft, almost imperceptible.

"What did you just say?" Zhu Shiyi didn't hear clearly. "What 'Little Pan Yue'?"

The other party remained silent for a moment.

After a two-second silence, Pan Yue said, "It's nothing."

"Oh." Zhu Shiyi didn't pay any attention.

"I just wanted to use a dialect phrase." Pan Yue's voice sounded devoid of emotion.

"What?"

“Children shouldn’t be naughty,” Pan Yue’s voice trailed off, “otherwise, they’ll become naughty kids.”

Pan Yue emphasized the last two words.

Zhu Shiyi's face flushed.

What little kid?

She roughly understood what was going on.

Zhu Shiyi studied in Jinrong and could understand some of the local dialect.

"皮孩" means leather shoes.

Zhu Shiyi mimicked the accent: "I want to be a naughty kid!"

Her accent was awkward, crooked, and drawn out.

However, due to the unique pronunciation of the Chengdu dialect, it naturally carries a touch of coquettishness.

Pan Yue, sitting opposite him, remained silent for a long time.

Zhu Shiyi was puzzled.

Was her one-woman show really that awkward?

He was speechless because she spoke in a dialect that was so unpleasant to hear.

Zhu Shiyi's breathing became lighter: "What's wrong... is your internet connection slowing down?"

"No." Pan Yue's voice was a little muffled, as if it had a hint of hoarseness.

"You've pressed down on the microphone," Zhu Shiyi kindly reminded him.

There was a sigh, very soft, yet long.

“Yes,” Pan Yue’s voice returned to its clear tone, “I just pressed down on the microphone.”

--

Wednesday.

The promotional video has been released on major platforms for three days.

The team pushed the stream according to the plan, and the final result was a small hit.

Inside the marketing department office.

When colleagues see Zhu Shiyi, they always say a few words of praise.

"Shiyi is amazing!"

I'm rooting for you!

He Qiong also stated that bonuses would be given to colleagues in the marketing department who participated in the project after Christmas and the project's conclusion.

For the first time, Zhu Shiyi experienced a sense of accomplishment at work.

"Shiyi, you and Li Xuan will continue planning the Christmas activities together," He Qiong assigned the task.

"Okay, Sister Qiong." Zhu Shiyi replied with great enthusiasm.

She declared, "Today, I love going to work!"

The fourth route is suitable for all matters.

First comes bitterness, then comes sweetness.

Zhu Shiyi ordered takeout for lunch and ate it in the lounge.

"Shiyi," Fan Jun came in, carrying takeout, and pointed to the seat opposite her, "Is this seat taken?"

Zhu Shiyi politely put down her chopsticks, quickly chewed the food in her mouth, waved her hand hurriedly, and only after swallowing did she speak: "No, no, please sit down."

“I often see you eating with Vicky,” Fan Jun said, sitting down and unpacking his takeout. “You don’t know, I’m the only male intern in our department, and I can’t find anyone to eat with at lunchtime.”

Vicky is absent today.

Zhu Shiyi chuckled twice and said politely, "It's alright, come visit us next time."

“Okay,” Fan Jun opened the Chinese-style packaging of the takeout, “I remember you’re a junior in college now, right?”

"Yes."

“Then there’s no need to think about it so much,” Fan Jun sighed softly. “Without the burden of becoming a permanent employee, the pressure will be much less.”

Zhu Shiyi gave an awkward laugh: "Yes."

That's what I meant.

They made it sound like she was just a nobody in the department.

"Which school are you in Jinrong?" Fan Jun asked again.

"Just an ordinary university." Zhu Shiyi's academic background isn't particularly impressive.

"Oh, oh," Fan Jun scratched his head, as if realizing he had offended someone, "I was just thinking that if the schools are close by, we can go out for a meal together later if we have the chance."

What the heck?

Zhu Shiyi couldn't tell whether the other person was just making small talk or had some other intention.

But she remained polite: "Haha, it depends on fate. But my school is in the western suburbs, which is quite far from the company."

Fortunately, the other party didn't persist.

After the meal, Fan Jun suggested that he treat Zhu Shiyi to milk tea.

Zhu Shiyi refused any reward given without merit.

If he drinks it, wouldn't we have to find time to invite him back later?

If we had to deal with each other every day, wouldn't that be incredibly awkward?

......

Today is another day to head to the gym.

Zhu Shiyi sent a WeChat message to Pan Yue.

Zhu Shiyi: [See you in the garage again today?]

Pan Yue: [It's working hours now.]

Zhu Shiyi glanced at the time; there were still ten minutes left before he could leave work.

What a miscalculation!

She sent a crying panda emoji.

Zhu Shiyi: [Boss, please don't deduct my pay!]

Zhu Shiyi: [How about this? I'll volunteer to work two minutes overtime to make up for the time I was slacking off.]

Pan Yue: "Then I'll still wait for you."

Pan Yue: [Are you busy today?]

Zhu Shiyi: [Thankfully, all the tasks are finished.]

Pan Yue: [Then you should leave early.]

[The parking lot is waiting for you.]

Zhu Shiyi: ?

She reported that the boss was slacking off!

The company doesn't require clocking out, but this is the first time she's left early; she has no experience with this.
