"Just wait!"

Grandpa Lin slapped his thigh excitedly, "This is what she's waiting for! Forcing the other side to use a bad move! This girl is amazing!"

Those around who knew chess were completely engrossed in watching.

The game was far more exciting than they had imagined.

The red side's horse and pawn moved flexibly, completely countering the black chariot's straight-line advantage.

The two horses circled, closing in step by step.

The black general remained trapped in the ribs, unable to move.

In the twenty-seventh move, Fu Hua placed her last piece – Pawn 5 to 6.

Again, a draw.

The man with the pointed mouth suddenly stood up, and the chair crashed to the ground.

He stared at the chessboard, his lips trembling: "Impossible...this is impossible..."

He studied chess scores for ten years in his spare time before he could play games to a draw with ease.

How could this little girl be only a teenager?

An even louder round of applause erupted from the crowd.

Someone exclaimed, "This little girl is amazing! She's a chess master!"

"Both games ended in draws!"

Lu Xingzhou stared in disbelief: "My God, Fu Hua, how can she know everything?!"

This student has truly refreshed his understanding time and time again.

The man with the pointed beak was deathly pale, and his back was soaked with cold sweat.

He glanced at his accomplices in the crowd and quickly gave them a signal.

In the third game, he presented his trump card, "A Lone Journey Across a Thousand Miles".

This game is more complex and has more variations.

It took him several years to figure it out.

The man with the pointed mouth trembled as he set up the chess pieces.

This girl is a bit strange.

Those old men who usually enter the game, let alone draw, they can't even make ten moves before they lose everything.

Fu Hua's dark eyes lit up when she saw the chessboard.

Was he traveling alone for thousands of miles?

This was the only endgame puzzle she had ever thoroughly studied.

In the opening move, Fu Hua moved her pawn forward one space from the fifth position.

Just as the man with the pointed lip was about to leave, one of his accomplices in the crowd suddenly shouted, "Young lady, know when to quit while you're ahead! Get your money and leave quickly, this place isn't clean!"

Another person chimed in, "Exactly! If it keeps going down like this, you might run into a ghost if you walk alone at night!"

"Why learn gambling at such a young age!"

"You're dressed quite well. Does your family know you gamble?"

One harsh word after another came flying at me.

"What nonsense are you spouting! How is chess gambling?"

Old Master Lin was so angry that his face turned red, and some people in the crowd shouted at him.

"Shut up, all of you! Don't think I don't know what you're up to. If you dare interfere with the little girl's chess game again, I'll tear your mouths off!"

Lu Xingzhou's face also turned cold: "Observing the game without speaking, you should think carefully about the consequences."

Those people were quiet for a moment at first,

It got even worse in no time.

The sound grew louder and louder, and the content became increasingly unpleasant.

Taking advantage of the chaos, the man with the pointed beak secretly moved a chess piece.

It's so subtle that you can't even notice it unless you look closely.

Fu Hua looked up and glanced at him.

That gaze was like an icicle, pinning the sharp-mouthed man to the spot.

She raised her hand and pushed the chess piece back to its original position.

The action was obvious; everyone saw it.

"Fine, you dare to take back your move?"

Old Master Lin pointed at the man with the pointed beak.

The man with the pointed beak turned pale.

Fu Hua ignored the noise around her.

Fingers moved quickly across the chessboard.

The chess pieces are placed extremely quickly, each move landing in the most suitable position.

Rook moves to the fourth rank, Horse moves to the third rank, Cannon moves to the sixth rank...

It requires almost no thinking; it's like reciting an answer you already know by heart.

This time, she is not aiming for a draw.

She wants to win.

In the eleventh move, the red knight jumps into the black palace.

Step 15: The red car sinks to the bottom, securing victory.

Step 18: Red cannon in position, two generals!

The man with the pointed mouth responded in a flustered manner.

Fu Hua had calculated every step meticulously.

His moves became increasingly chaotic and riddled with mistakes.

Step 23: Fu Hua lands her red soldier.

The pawn advances one rank, directly threatening the black general.

A decisive goal.

On the chessboard, the black general has no moves.

The man with the pointed beak stared at the chessboard, frozen in place.

His accomplices were also dumbfounded, and their cursing stopped abruptly.

The surroundings were quiet for a few seconds.

Then a deafening cheer erupted.

"We won! We really won!"

"Three games! Two draws and one win!"

"Amazing! This little girl is extraordinary!"

Grandpa Lin laughed heartily and patted Fu Hua's shoulder heavily: "Good girl, you've really made me proud!"

The man with the pointed beak, his face ashen, suddenly stood up: "This round doesn't count! You...you cheated!"

"Where did I cheat?"

Fu Hua asked calmly.

"You...you must have memorized the game records! This wasn't something you came up with on the spot!"

"so what?"

Fu Hua looked at him. "Chess matches aren't allowed to use chess scores?"

The man was speechless.

Just then, Zhang Wen's voice rang out from outside the crowd: "Police officers! Over here!"

Two police officers squeezed in.

The older man glanced at the chessboard, then at the sharp-mouthed man, his face darkening: "It's you again? Didn't you learn your lesson from lying to people at Yuyuantan last week?"

The man with the pointed mouth trembled and tried to run away, but was pinned down by the young policeman.

"Were you playing chess with them just now?"

Fu Hua nodded neither humbly nor arrogantly.

The old policeman squatted down and looked at the chessboard laid out on his watch, especially the third game.

After watching for a while, he looked up at Fu Hua with amazement in his eyes: "Little girl, you can win this 'Wandering Alone for a Thousand Miles' challenge? That's impressive."

He stood up, glanced to the side, and then his expression changed drastically.

He immediately straightened up, stood at attention, and saluted: "Old Commander, what are you doing here?"

Old Master Lin waved his hand: "Retired old man, I don't dare call you that. I'm just out for a stroll in the park. These few swindlers are trying to show off their skills here. You'd better deal with them properly."

The old policeman immediately understood; his former commander's favorite pastime before retirement was playing chess.

These people are really audacious, daring to try and deceive the old commander.

"Yes! I will definitely handle this seriously!"

The swindlers handed over the money, and soon the police were taken away.

The man with the pointed lip glared at Fu Hua as he left.

Fu Hua calmly looked back, her eyes devoid of any emotion.

After the police left, Grandpa Lin excitedly approached Fu Hua: "Girl, you really helped me get revenge today! What's your name? How old are you? Where do you go to school?"

Lu Xingzhou said helplessly, "Grandpa, this is the girl I told you about. She's Song Chuan's younger sister, Fu Hua, from Minghua High School in Beijing."

"Hello student! You have potential."

Grandpa Lin liked it more and more as he looked at it, and warmly invited, "Girl, I have several old comrades-in-arms who love playing chess. Come over to my house sometime and have a match with them!"

Fu Hua glanced at Zhang Wen and said politely, "Thank you, sir. I'll definitely go shopping with my friend another day. I promised my friend I'd go shopping today."

Grandpa Lin looked at Zhang Wen and nodded: "Alright! It's a deal then, you absolutely have to come along, you played the last game so well."

He turned to Lu Xingzhou and said, "Xingzhou, you go pick up the girl yourself, next weekend, understand?"

Lu Xingzhou agreed, and then said to Fu Hua, "Thank you so much for today. My grandfather has a short temper, and if it weren't for you, things would have gotten out of control."

"Brother Lu, you're too kind."

Fu Hua said.

"Did you send those police officers?"

Lu Xingzhou asked with a smile, "You knew they were frauds all along?"

Fu Hua nodded.

This scam has persisted for a long time, specifically targeting retired elderly men, and she witnessed it firsthand in her later life.

"Then, I'll pick you up next week. It's been a while since I've had tea with Songchuan. I'll invite your older brother too, so you won't feel uncomfortable."

"it is good."

Lu Xingzhou looked at Zhang Wen: "Classmate, I'll be going now? See you again sometime."

"goodbye."

Zhang Wen's eyes sparkled.
