The eyes looked familiar, as if he had seen them somewhere, but Mai Xiaoji knew too many people, and he filtered them over and over again in his mind, and he still didn't think of who it was.

"This is a restored picture based on multiple photos, but the mask is bulging, and the shape of the mouth cannot be determined, and the similarity is only about 60%. ”

Guan Lu showed Mai Xiaoji a few more photos, and added different mouth shapes to the restored face, but it looked a little strange.

"Is there anything wrong with this man?" asked McKee.

"The employees of the information company found out about her and reported the situation to Dan and me. Judging from the current physiognomy, this person has fierce eyes, full cheekbones, and is mostly an arbitrary and lone person. Also, she is often seen around the building, not like a good person. Guan Zhen said.

Suspicion is suspicion, but it is illegal to arrest someone based on the fact that the other party has appeared in the vicinity of the building a few times. But now that we are in full swing to enter the knockout round that attracts the most attention from fans, all suspicious people must be strictly guarded.

"Tube, let people keep an eye on this woman. Mai Xiaoji commanded.

"Well, in the future, the patrol of the building will be strengthened, and this woman will not be allowed to approach casually. There is also an army of animals that have also been ordered to follow her. Guan Zhen said.

Next is the knockout round, which also means that the Quest Cup has entered the white-hot stage. As the second place in the group, the knowledge will be drawn against the first place of the other group.

Speaking of which, there are not many host teams that have stood out in the group stage and squeezed into the round of 16, but the leaping team is not a complete victory, and there is still a defeat, and there is also a first-class team, and the voice of support is not as loud as before.

"Xiao Ji, can Feiyue make it to the quarterfinals?" Lu Youcai asked in the Iron Triangle group.

Before Mai Xiaoji saw it, Feng Qi left a message: "It doesn't matter if it gets in or not, as long as Xiaoji predicts the other teams correctly, we will make a lot of money." ”

After the group stage, the profit of the Iron Triangle is as high as 150 million US dollars, and Feng Qi makes money, where to consider the future development of knowledge.

This is really not as humane as Lu Youcai.

"The leap team, at least at the level of the top four, can only be eliminated by other teams. Mai Xiaoji made an arrogant expression.

The Iron Triangle was quiet, and the two men pretended not to see. The game lost in the group stage of Feiyue sparked heated discussions on the Internet, and the real strong team will not lose in the group stage.

In that game, Feiyue did not slack off, but focused more on learning and figuring out the opponent's kicking skills. Liu Bang once patted his chest and said to Mai Xiaoji that if he met again in the future knockout round, he was sure that the other party would not have a place to turn over.

It is worth emphasizing that when there are no games, in addition to the daily warm-up, the Leap team repeatedly studies each game, and the experience just summed up is more than 50 pages long.

The knockout round officially kicked off in anticipation of the fans, with the first match between the Netherlands and Switzerland.

The Netherlands are a long-established football powerhouse and often have their players in the semi-finals of the World Series. In this game, there seems to be no suspense, and almost everyone agrees that the Netherlands will win.

But it does not include members of the Iron Triangle.

The group stage was uneventful, with each team playing at a normal level and nothing out of the ordinary looked like there was anything out of the ordinary. The fact that Seeking Knowledge can hold this competition is completely promoted by Shifeng behind the scenes, but I am afraid that they will not be kind, but only make a name for Knowledge.

Moreover, the advance prediction that Mai Xiaoji learned from Mai Michichang was 1 to 0. Don't get me wrong, it's Switzerland that wins!

Although victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, such a result is unacceptable to even Mai Xiaoji, in order to make money, Shifeng has broken through the moral bottom line, and does not care about the dignity of the old football kingdom at all. To say that Shifeng will not cheat secretly, Mai Xiaoji definitely does not believe it.

"Xiaoji, what is the result, let's bet. Feng Qi urged in the group.

"It's not out yet. ”

"Hurry up, the odds will be low at the beginning. ”

Lu Youcai made a thoughtful expression, and then followed up, "I looked at the roster of the Dutch team, there are no football stars, they are all newcomers, is there anything boring in this?"

"I think it's the same, Shifeng has to start from the knockout round. Look at the Swiss side, there are several veterans who are playing well. If I want to bet on such a combination, I have to fight Switzerland to win. ”

Feng Qi also thought of this, but it made Mai Xiaoji more and more unhappy. Shifeng is very cautious in doing things, and besides, the Knowledge Cup is not a regular competition, just an ordinary invitational tournament, and it is not ashamed for new players to lose a game, and they have actual combat experience.

Presumably, Shifeng also invested a lot of money in the Swiss team to make black money. Mai Xiaoji scratched his ears and cheeks, feeling very anxious, selfishly, whoever wins is the same, anyway, he can win money. If the Netherlands are eliminated from the competition, it will not necessarily be a bad thing for the leap, and there will be fewer opponents in the future.

But on the other hand, the huge knowledge cup will end in a mess, and it will be scolded for being bloody.

No, his life is made by himself, the more Mai Xiaoji thinks about it, the more unwilling he becomes, and he returns to Juxian Lou to discuss with everyone, there is only one purpose, he would rather earn less, but also change the ending, win what should be won, lose what should be lost, and let Shifeng's abacus fail.

"It's not about luck in a game, it's not difficult. It's just a change of luck, not the actions of monks like us, and it may even affect one's own fortunes. Zuo Ci did not object, but said that he could not do anything.

"Dao Chief, the football field is fake, and it has always been despised by the world, and we can't bear this pot when we seek knowledge. Mai Xiaoji looked at Mai Dao again.

"Things are man-made, and everything is not completely unchangeable, but it is only human beings themselves who can make it transform. Mai nodded and said.

The two sides on the football field have nothing to do with the leap, and the referee has also drawn lots, flawless, how can human intervention Mai Xiaoji saw Zuo Ci drooping his eyelids, and the direction of his eyes was his own pocket, and he suddenly understood, and then took out the golden circle and released Ji Manli.

The rest of the people also seemed to have guessed Mai Xiaoji's intentions, showing a happy look, and Liu Bang stretched out his head and listened with his ears pricked up.

"Manli, True Qi is invisible, and it can be transmitted into my body through you, so can you use True Qi to change the trajectory of the goal?" asked Mai Xiaoji.

"Yes!"

Everyone stared wide-eyed and waited for the following, without explanation, Ji Manli was still very strange, "What are you looking at me, the real qi is very rare, okay, who is idle and has nothing to do to hit the football." Isn't it, Koji, do you really think so?"

"Yes, the leap game was maliciously manipulated behind people's backs, we can't let the good players be lonely and make the fans sad, we should take a counterattack!"

Mai Xiaoji raised his fist and said it politely, but Ji Manli rolled her eyes and said disapprovingly: "It's my business!"

Okay, Mai Xiaoji gave the order directly, so it was decided, and she will be really angry in the future, don't choke.
