Chapter 889 889: Racetrack Contest - 5
Irish didn't know how to respond. Unfortunately, Leo's words were true. The second car behind Jordan's began to rush forward, acting to be surpassed in the middle. This case was very familiar to Irish. She immediately thought of Michael's "crash."
It was true. If this car finally made it, Jordan would be injured most severely because of the design style of the driveway. In this way, the third car would take the opportunity to rush to the No.1.
Leo was right. The sacrifice could be unavoidable for a competition. It was not an entirely fair competition.
Irish was concerned again.
She was regretful. She was very regretful.
If Jordan really got injured in the competition, she would be too embarrassed to face Joseph, let alone Jordan. The reason why Jordan came back was just to watch a game. Originally, he didn't desire to become an outstanding driver but just to watch a game.
It was she who kept encouraging him and letting him pursue his dream. She made him hopeful again.
If he really got injured, what could she do to compensate him?
Irish prayed again and again. She only hoped that Jordan could be safe and sound. It was true. She understood the real meaning of "Safety is the most important." Now she didn't ask for the result, but only that he could get to the destination peacefully.
Now this situation was like a tiger fighting with three hungry wolves.
Jordan would make great efforts whenever this car wanted to surpass, making it difficult for him to catch up with the competing team.
During the last three rounds, the driver adopted the same method again.
This time, it was at the turning point. The road was narrow, beside which people in the same team were resisting him, and there were two cars behind him. If Jordan wanted to speed up, he would lose the opportunity to drift, resulting in self-destroying.
He had to slow down and tried his best to turn to the other side.
The car intending to crash him passed Jordan's car closely.
Jordan avoided the possibility of crashing.
Irish stomped her feet in front of the screen.
After the turning point, Jordan began to surpass, and even the staff in the news center couldn't help exclaiming Jordan's speed as "a ray of lightning."
The destination was around the corner. Irish's fingers were clenched tightly.
Jordan kept chasing the car, and then he got into trouble again.
"If Jordan just uses the same method, he will bump the first car, and by the inertia, he can slip to be the No.1," Leo said.
Irish understood that Jordan played a role in coming from behind that car.
She was not good at car racing, and she couldn't figure out its gateway. However, she knew that this driveway was different from that just now. It could be the same case as described by Leo.
Joseph thought of it for a while and said, "If Jordan does it in that way, he can be the champion, but it may cause damage to the surrounding two cars and even the severe death of the driver. He presses the line by being near to the first car, and because of the speed and angle, the first car might turn over, and once the racing car explodes, its debris may hurt the audience on the spectators' stand."
Irish felt shocked as she heard it.
Leo looked at Joseph, smiling, "Do you think that your brother will do it?"
Joseph was silent.
Leo sneered and didn't talk anymore.
Irish also hesitated. Would Jordan do it?
As she was thinking, she saw Jordan speeding up suddenly and crowding in by the aisle.
Irish was surprised. Would he do it, really?
She felt that Joseph's arms were clenched tightly.
The last chance was near and near when it was in the last round.
Jordan's car passed by quickly, and he made a fake action. First, he fooled the other drivers, and then Jordan passed by with great tactics. Shockingly, he didn't make his way by being near the first car.
The first car just went to the destination in this way.
There was just 0.1 seconds difference between Jordan's and that car. He ranked No.2.
The whole news center was cheering up.
All the audience stood up and shouted at Jordan, "No.1, No.1."
Most of the audience were fans of F1 racing cars, and they were chanting. Then, finally, they figured out the true meaning of Jordan's actions, so they just shouted out his number loudly.
She would have felt pitiful if it hadn't been explained clearly to Irish.
After knowing the reason, she felt that although Jordan looked proud as he went on the stage, he had professional morals as a racing car driver.
He had an opportunity to be the No.1, but the consequence might be that it would lead to too much damage, as analyzed by Joseph.
In such competition, Jordan could be the best under the premise that he didn't hurt anyone. It was a really admirable move.
That was also the reason why the audience cheered for Jordan.
When Jordan's car stopped, Irish found that Joseph had finally got released.
The top three in such a severe competition could be regarded as master hands. Jordan was especially noticeable as he ranked No.2.
He was too young. A bright future could be foreseen since he could make big achievements at such a young age.
Joseph didn't appear on the scene. However, Leo and Irish couldn't wait to congratulate him.
After a while, the two returned to the VIP lounge. Irish complained, "Jordan now becomes the star. So many girls are surrounding him to take photos."
Joseph smiled and didn't talk anymore. He looked relieved now.
After a great while, the door of the VIP lounge opened. Jordan walked in, and there was still a helmet under his arms.
As he entered, he said, "I am No.2."
Joseph didn't talk more but just said lightly, "Luckily, my brother didn't achieve his goal only for success but made the great move."
Irish heard it. She felt touched by his words.
Just like a bad guy hoping his next generations will be good, Joseph was famous for his uprightness but didn't wish his brother would be like him.
Irish had thought that Joseph was used to being cruel, but his words now proved that he was somewhat helpless. He hated struggling, but he needed to do so. He acted like a fighter, attacking others on the horse's back. He hoped that his brother could escape from it.
Irish began to feel sorry for this man as she thought of it.
