253 Do your best

"This ...... No kidding, what's the point between me and you. Zhao Ya shook her head and refused.

"I came to school three days in advance, just to wait for the next game with you, can I not refuse?" Jiang Bowen is quite sincere, and the pursuit of Go makes Zhao Ya unbearable to refuse.

But she didn't want to reveal her identity so simply, so she still had to refuse, "I'm sorry......"

"Zhao Ya, it's just a game of chess, what are you worried about?" Jiang Bowen interrupted Zhao Ya's words, turned his gaze to the side after speaking, no longer looked at Zhao Ya, as if he was talking to himself: "There was once a girl who kept me awake at night, not because of her feelings, nor because of her appearance and temperament that attracted me, but because of her unfathomable chess power. ”

"I started at the age of six and won the national championship at the age of twelve, when I thought I was the future of Chinese Go." Jiang Bowen smiled slightly self-deprecatingly, and then said: "But then, I didn't advance but retreated on the road of learning chess, until I met her, the girl who I looked down on at first, but she could win me." ”

"Since that game, I have started to reflect on myself, it's not that my Go level is not good, it's my mentality that is not good, I lost to myself."

"Then, I started to improve, and I was lucky enough to meet her again, but the second time I met, I found that her chess skills improved far beyond I could have imagined." Jiang Bowen shook his head, turned his gaze to Zhao Ya, took a deep breath and said: "Later, we met for the third time, but this third time, I understood, I am indeed inferior in skills, I lost very badly, but I woke up a little, I am not a genius, at least compared to her, I am nothing at all." ”

"Then, I entered the professional chess world, and I hope that through my tempering, I can continue to improve my chess skills, and one day I can catch up with or even surpass her." Jiang Bowen's gaze crossed Zhao Ya, as if he was recalling his own mentality at that time.

"But when I heard about her again, she had become a myth in the Go world and became the brightest genius in the Go world of all time." After Jiang Bowen finished speaking, he looked at Zhao Ya's eyes again and asked softly, "Do you know what her name is?" ”

"Her name is Zhao Ya." Zhao Ya exhaled lightly, she could already see Jiang Bowen's thoughts from his eyes.

"Yes, I'm not sure if you're her or not, but I can't play a game with her, so I want to play a game with you, please advise." Jiang Bowen said, bowing slightly, that serious attitude, with him in a formal suit, made Zhao Ya no longer able to refuse this request.

"Okay, let's go to the club, just play a game of chess, a quick game of chess for an hour." Zhao Ya smiled faintly, she didn't want to reveal her identity, but she wouldn't be afraid of anything, Jiang Bowen's obsession with Go was a little similar to his second life, and playing chess with him must be very interesting.

Ten minutes later, the two went to the club room together.

There were already two people playing chess inside, and when they saw Zhao Ya and Jiang Bowen, one of them nodded, did not speak, and continued to play chess.

"Shall we go first?" Jiang Bowen asked softly.

"Okay, get the timer." Zhao Ya said and pointed to a clock on the club's closet.

"The one is bad, the good one is locked inside the cabinet." Jiang Bowen smiled and said, "I promise you to play fast chess, no need for a timer." ”

"Alright then, guess first." Zhao Ya nodded and placed a sunspot on the chessboard.

"It's an even number, you guessed wrong, I use black." Jiang Bowen spread out the chess pieces held in his right hand, only two white pieces, and then handed the white chess box to Zhao Ya, and took the black chess box and put it on his right hand.

"Let's get started, please advise." Zhao Ya bowed slightly and looked at Jiang Bowen quietly.

"Please advise." Jiang Bowen looked solemn, picked up a sunspot and gently landed on the star in the upper right corner.

He has been looking forward to this game for a long time, and since he began to doubt Zhao Ya's identity, he has been looking forward to this game.

Regardless of whether Zhao Ya is the teacher of Heizhao Go, or whether she is the female chess god Zhao Ya, he is very much looking forward to this game, because she is Zhao Ya, this name is enough for him to pay enough attention to.

And in Jiang Bowen's heart, he believes in his own judgment, and this game of chess can allow him to confirm whether this Zhao Ya is a teacher Xiaoya, a female chess god, or both.

The two played very quickly, Jiang Bowen didn't think too much, although he didn't want to move so fast in some chess, but in order to keep his promise, he never thought for more than a minute.

And Zhao Ya doesn't seem to care much about this game of chess, it may be that she has already figured out the changes, and she also plays extremely fast, and many moves don't think about it at all.

In ten minutes, the two of them had already played more than 100 moves and entered the mid-game battle.

When Zhao Ya took a step and twisted, Jiang Bowen frowned, and thought for a moment with the chess piece in his hand, before slowly landing a piece.

This move made Jiang Bowen feel very strange, because in the current situation of equal strength, white chess twisting is not suitable, and such a choice cannot be taken advantage of at all.

Moreover, the chess patterns around the white chess are very thin, and the biggest possibility of twisting the battle is to take care of one or the other, which Jiang Bowen will not doubt, so he does not understand Zhao Ya's move.

Glancing at the expressionless Zhao Ya, Jiang Bowen found that she seemed to be thinking about something.

After a while, Zhao Yacai dropped a sunspot, seeing this move, Jiang Bowen was slightly stunned, this is a move he didn't expect, if this move really works, then the twist just now is valuable.

Jiang Bowen's brows tightened, and he fell into thought, this time he thought for five minutes before he shook his head slightly and put a white piece on it.

Then, the two of them went down much faster, and in this battle, Jiang Bowen chose to back down and lost three eyes.

In the later games, although Jiang Bowen has been looking for opportunities, he can only follow the white chess from beginning to end, the opportunity has been lost, and the loss is a foregone conclusion.

After the last official, Jiang Bowen nodded and said, "Thank you for your advice." ”

"Thank you." Zhao Ya also responded, and the two tacitly began to collect chess pieces together.

If there are spectators in this game, they may not know who wins and who loses, but the two of them already know it, so they don't have to count the chess, and they don't have to say anything about winning or losing.

After the two finished collecting the chess pieces, seeing that the two members of the club who were playing against each other were still thinking, Jiang Bowen said softly: "Let's go." ”

"Okay, let's go." Zhao Ya followed Jiang Bowen out of the club room.

"I'll keep it a secret for you." Jiang Bowen said lightly.

"I believe in you." Zhao Ya said softly.

"I'm talking about keeping your secrets at such a high level for you." Jiang Bowen seemed to let go of the knot in his heart and said.

"I think so too."

"Can you tell me if you're ......?"

"No, it doesn't matter who I am, the important thing is that I treat you as a friend." Zhao Ya said.

"Okay, friend, thank you for your trust." Jiang Bowen nodded, "Is there anything you need my help with?" ”

"Nothing."

Jiang Bowen was silent for a moment, and then said, "Lan Xiaochun, she also guessed. ”

"I know."

"Will you ever go to college here?"

"Yes, when my identity is revealed, that's when I leave." After Zhao Ya finished speaking, she glanced at Jiang Bowen deeply, "Your chess can still be improved, work hard." ”
