Chapter 40 Who is it?
Chapter 40 Who is it?
"Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding..."
Dongjiang City, Riverside Neon Apartments.
A rather simple ringing sounded in the one-bedroom apartment.
Zou Yang was using AI to analyze and study the changes in the pattern in front of the computer. When she heard the ringtone, her eyes were still fixed on the screen, and her right hand skillfully took the mobile phone from the mobile phone holder in front of her, and then she cast a glance at the phone.
This is her habitual action - it can minimize the time occupied by the outside world.
But when she saw who was calling, her calmness suddenly disappeared.
Because the caller column clearly reads:
Lei Qi.
Zou Yang couldn't help biting his lip: You know, Lei Qi is definitely at the center of attention right now.
The game of chess he played with [You Feng Lai Yi] last night was so explosive: the new world champion, who was in the limelight and was recognized as the future number one in the country, was defeated by an ordinary and unknown 9D in two consecutive games with handicap, and even lost the second game miserably!
The entire professional Go community is discussing this matter now, and many people are speculating whether Lei Qi's account was hacked in the second game: As a world champion, it's reasonable that he wouldn't win the game, but he would lose points...
This handicap game couldn't possibly be played with Lin Ruixin, right? !
But when someone contacted Lei Qi to confirm, Lei Qi didn't answer the phone at all. Lei Jingming was also vague and perfunctory in his response, which intensified people's speculation and discussion.
However... at this time, Zou Yang had guessed the situation to some extent.
Lei Qi’s abnormality is definitely related to Rui Zhao!
Otherwise, the teacher would never have called me yesterday to remind me not to reveal to anyone that [The Phoenix Comes] was Rui Zhao's story!
But that was all Zou Yang knew.
She was quite nervous when facing the call from Lei Qi.
Yesterday, Yu Qingguang told her that Lei Qi was not in a good condition, and now Lei Qi called her...
That must be the chess game he saw between me and Rui Zhao yesterday, right?
Zou Yang took a deep breath to calm himself down before answering the phone:
"Hey, Xiao Lei, why did you think of contacting me today?"
Zou Yang tried to make his tone more natural. The young man's voice on the other end of the phone was obviously a little depressed:
"Ah, hello, Sister Zou Yang! Sorry to bother you so suddenly."
"What are you saying? We female chess players are all looking forward to answering your call!"
Zou Yang tried hard to find a joke.
Even though she really had no thoughts about Lei Qi, the atmosphere needed to be as lively as possible, so she made a little teasing.
“Haha, not really!”
Lei Qi chuckled twice and got to the point.
"Well, Sister Zou Yang, I'll just ask directly: Didn't you play a game of chess with You Feng Lai Yi on the chess country yesterday morning? Do you know who she is?"
Knew it!
Fortunately, I had anticipated this!
Zou Yang said inwardly, and then said according to the lines he had prepared long ago:
"Ah? You're asking me? I only caught up with you because I saw you playing a handicap game with her the day before yesterday!"
"Huh? What, what does this mean?" Lei Qi was obviously confused.
"It's very simple! Xiao Lei, you basically don't use your main account to play online chess, but this time you specifically logged in to your main account to play handicap chess with others. I thought she had some unique playing method that was worth your special game. So yesterday morning, when I saw her online, I also sent her an invitation to play handicap chess, but I didn't expect that there was nothing special about the actual game...
"Hey, from what you said, you don't know who she is? Then why did you play handicap chess with her?"
"This... there must be some reason anyway." Lei Qi said perfunctorily: "Then Sister Zou Yang, did you... win against her?"
Ask, ask this?
Zou Yang was stunned and asked, "Don't you know the result?"
"I was just about to go in and take a look, but you just happened to be exiting after downloading."
"Oh! So that's it..." Zou Yang thought about it, and finally decided to tell the truth to avoid revealing any flaws and arousing suspicion from Lei Qi.
"That guy is quite strong. I lost two points to him."
"You let her lose two points first?" Lei Qi said uncertainly, "So she... is really at a professional level?"
This hesitant tone made Zou Yang laugh:
"It doesn't matter if others ask me, but why don't you confirm it yourself? Regardless of the game you played yesterday where you were obviously out of your mind, you should have figured it out when you played with her the day before yesterday, right?
"Now if I want to get past you two, I definitely won't be able to do it without professional skills."
"Ah...you think so too..."
Through the phone, Zou Yang could clearly hear the other party heaving a sigh of relief.
"...That's not bad, I don't think I'm that useless!"
Eh?
Why is little Lei brother so depressed today?
Zou Yang was confused for a while.
...
...
"Is it really at a professional level?"
On the G2 train from Dongjiang to Dajing, Lei Qi put down the phone in his hand, looked up at the ceiling, and finally seemed to relax a little.
Yesterday afternoon, after suffering a crushing defeat to "You Feng Lai Yi", he fell into a state of deep self-doubt.
Even though yesterday's game was a handicap game, Lei Qi still lost nearly thirty points on the board. In his opinion, this was no different from losing the game with the first move given.
According to his usual thinking, losing to a girl in chess was shameful enough, but losing to an amateur female anchor who sold lessons live was something he could not forgive himself for.
So after playing chess, Lei Qi was in a trance and hid directly in the "tree hole" in his heart. It was not until this morning that he slowly recovered.
After gradually regaining consciousness, he immediately began to review the entire incident, and the first thing he needed to figure out was the specific strength of [You Feng Lai Yi].
How powerful [You Feng Lai Yi] is is very important to Lei Qi.
After the first handicap game the day before yesterday, he judged that You Feng Lai Yi should be a low-level professional player, but this perception was instantly shattered after he saw the chat records yesterday, which caused his emotions to fluctuate violently.
For an amateur female anchor who sells courses live, it is amazing to reach the weak industry level 5!
It was absolutely unacceptable for Lei Qi to let such a person pass his two-piece test, which led to his overly aggressive moves yesterday, which resulted in his complete defeat.
But Lei Qi, who had already experienced a roller coaster ride and whose emotions had basically calmed down, naturally could not get carried away again. He calmed down and thought about it for a while before he understood.
Compared to the chat messages in the game room whose authenticity may not be confirmed, one's chess skills, which are the result of long-term hard study and practice and testing the world's chess skills, are definitely more reliable.
So he quickly thought of Zou Yang.
Zou Yang also played a game of handicap with [You Feng Lai Yi]. As long as we understand Zou Yang's game situation, we can prove the strength of [You Feng Lai Yi].
The result was as expected: Zou Yang failed to defend the Rangxian Pass.
There is no doubt that [You Feng Lai Yi] has professional level.
After knowing this, Lei Qi felt much better - at least this proved that his strength was still there, and he didn't suddenly become a loser.
However, a huge confusion ensued...
Who is this [You Feng Lai Yi]...?
How can there be such a talented girl who has professional level but not yet reached a certain level, and who still sells courses through live broadcasts?
Could it be that some female professional is secretly pretending to be an amateur chess player and live-streaming to supplement her family income?
I heard that the treatment of professional female chess players is not ideal, so it is not surprising that something like this happened...
But that’s not right either!
Although the professional female chess players are strong enough, their personalities are more introverted than each other. Can the live broadcast of selling courses be effective?
Lei Qi was clueless for a moment, and after pondering for a long time, he finally picked up his phone and opened the Yiguo APP...
