Chapter 585 The Showdown

Lysander reminded Daphne, saying, “Wake up. That’s a minor.”

Before Daphne had even finished speaking, the referee whistled, signaling the end of the first half of the competition. As expected, Joseph’s team had the lead.

When it was the second half, things suddenly came to a halt. A long time passed, but the whistle signaling commencement remained obsolete.

Daphne was somewhat anxious. “What’s going on? What happened?”

A girl beside her explained. “It seems a player on team five has to leave, so they’re short a player.”

“Is that Joseph’s team?”

“No. It’s their rival team.”

Daphne became even more anxious. “Does this mean the basketball competition can’t go on?”

*It depends on whether they can get someone else. But many of those in the senior year have been called back by the teachers, so we can only see if any freshmen or sophomores would come to stand in.”

Right after the girl had said that, a familiar figure appeared at the basketball court’s entrance.

The girls present let out another round of cheer.

Daphne’s brows furrowed. “Does he really have that much free time? Attending the school anniversary is one thing, but he even came to watch the basketball competition?”

Lysander remained silent.

Joseph puffed out his chest and lifted his chin. “Indeed.”

Josiah’s voice dropped low. “It seems like they’re short of a player on the other team, and it looks like they won’t be able to get anyone else for a while. How about… I give it a try?”
