Johanna leaned forward, curiosity piqued. “What happened next?”

Cole’s eyes flickered with excitement and admiration as he recounted the story.

“X drove straight through both teams without so much as brushing their cars. Can you believe it? Not a single contact! But here’s the most shocking part. Lucas chased after him… and still couldn’t catch up!”

Johanna and Victoria were close friends, and since Victoria was a racer herself, Johanna had some understanding of the sport. She gasped, “Isn’t Lucas the top professional racer? There’s someone he can’t beat?”

Victoria explained, “In an official individual race, Lucas might not lose to X. But team races are different. It’s not about who crosses the finish line first. It’s all about teamwork and points based on rankings. Even Lucas can’t just race ahead on his own;

he has to coordinate with his team.”

A driver without cooperation skills was not fit for team races.

Cole nodded in agreement.

“Victoria’s right. Skill-wise, X isn’t a match for Lucas. After the race was disrupted, Lucas chased after X. Though he was far behind, his driving skills are no joke; he almost caught up to X before X entered the city streets.”

Johanna was hooked by the story. “And then?”

Cole continued, “X may not have had the skill, but his IQ was off the charts. He used the surrounding traffic and terrain to shake

off Lucas.

“As we all know, Lucas had never lost before. He’d always dominated every race. So even though X exploited the terrain, Lucas had to admit he had lost. Lucas was furious and started digging for information on X. Guess what he found out?”

Lex, who had remained silent, finally spoke up. “X is a hidden pro?”

He agreed with the idea that a loss is a loss, no matter the circumstances. True champions never make excuses.

Cole sighed. “Not a pro at all. Turns out, X was just a rookie driver.”

“A rookie?” Lex and Johanna exclaimed in unison.

Cole nodded. “The car he drove was rented. And the rental record listed only an ‘X’-no other info.”

Johanna asked, “No one ever saw what X looked like?”

Cole shook his head.

“Racing in Marcentine is popular. Many people rent cars for racing. Seven or eight years ago, there wasn’t nearly as much surveillance as today. And everyone wears helmets, so no one can see their faces clearly.

“But from dashcam videos floating around, X’s drifting when shaking them off was absolutely mind-blowing!

“The main reason Lucas wanted to find X was because he saw huge potential and wanted to recruit X for his team as a partner. Sadly, X never showed up again. He didn’t enter any races either, and seemed to vanish into thin air,”

Victoria added, “X might not have professional skills yet, but his amateur level must be pretty high. I’d love to race against him

sometime.”

Lex’s eyes darkened. “Cole, send me all the info you have on X. I’ll have someone track him down.”

Lex had a fierce competitive streak. Hearing that even Lucas regarded X as worthy of attention stirred a desire in him to meet this mysterious racer.
