He stared. His hands weren’t even touching the phone properly. He’d been scratching his nose.
Then came the final circle. Two enemies left. A squad of two streamers—real ones, with face cams and thousands of viewers. Ravi’s character was crouched behind a jeep. The streamers were shouting, “He’s one-tapping everyone! Report him!”
