With the car having been swapped, Alan and AI are on the starting line side by side. They threw each other a glance from behind the window.
Before the game starts, AI had Joy check Alan's car that he was going to ride. The man looked dumbfounded hearing the will of AI. He painstakingly prepared a car for him, but AI instead chose to use someone else's car.
The race sign flag will start to have been issued. When the start sign lights on, all race participants immediately drive their vehicles at maximum speed. In the race area, no more friends. They compete for first place.
Throughout the race there were no obstacles that Irene felt. As usual, he was able to overtake several cars that were previously in front of him. Now, he is at the forefront. There was one car that was in an accident, but it wasn't Alan's. Irene was a little calm.
Irene reached the final round of the race on the first day. He finished first. Unexpectedly, Alan also followed behind him. Irene did not expect that Alan was good enough to also drive with his race car.
Irene returned to where her team was. He saw the reused car checked by a technician.
"How, is there anything strange?" Irene asked Jay.
"I don't think there is, Miss. It was okay before. The condition of the car is very good" Jay said.
Irene was astonished. He's sure last night didn't hear wrong anyone wanted to harm Alan. Clearly he heard they wanted to sabotage Alan's car.
That's why it forced Alan to swap cars with him. He was afraid that one of Alan's technicians would be the perpetrator. However, it seems like his guess was wrong.
"Hi, A.I," said Alan.
Irene was quite surprised to find Alan approaching her. He opened the helmet he was wearing. "Oh, hi, Alan." he returned the greeting.
"Congratulations, it's been the first. I was expecting it" said Alan.
"You're great too. I just met you this race. Very good."
"I'm coming because of you."
"Oh, thank you." Irene did not expect Alan to be an AI fan. He had stopped racing for a long time and Alan still knew about it. That man had been following him for a long time.
"Is it time we exchanged cars?" ask Alan.
"It looks like I still want to use your car. Do you mind if I borrow it again?" ask Irene.
Alan wondered why AI was so interested in his car. In fact, cars owned by AI are very comfortable to drive. He even believes he can finish in second position because the condition of the car is very excellent.
"Ah, may ... Wear it if you like it" Alan said.
"Thank you" said Irene.
"Em, can we have dinner tonight?" ask Alan.
"Ah, Sorry. I think I have another appointment. Maybe next time."
Alan was a little disappointed his invitation was rejected by the AI. Though he thought AI would be very happy to eat with him after he lent his car.

At night Irene came to the bar to see Jay. The man seemed to be enjoying his drink at the Bar table.
"Do you want a drink too, Miss?" ask Jay.
"No. I still have to race tomorrow. How can I get drunk."
"Oh, okay. Let me drink myself." Jay sipped his drink.
"You should not be too drunk either. I still need you to check the condition of the vehicle."
"Haha ... You are indeed very strange, Miss. I've been painstakingly preparing a car with the best conditions, but you chose someone else's car." Jay was expressing his protest.
"I'm still thankful to you, Jay. I'm worried about that guy. Looks like someone's been after him" Irene said.
Jay frowned. "Seeking the guy? What do you mean?"
"I heard someone was trying to engineer his car to crash. That's why I asked him to exchange cars" Irene said.
Jay's dumbfounded. "You're really crazy, Miss. It means you are trying to exchange your life for someone else. What if you're the one who's wretched yourself?" his nag.
Irene smiled. "I need you then. I can finish safely today thanks to you. Thank you," said Irene.
