There’s a saying that watching someone play is akin to understanding their character.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"For example, some people are obsessed with seizing every nook and cranny of the Go board, which shows that they have a narrow mind, overly fixated on gains and losses, not cut out for great things!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Others, however, are bold and expansive, fond of tortuous strategies; often placing a stone that will only be useful twenty moves later. Such persons are adept at scheming, with hidden depths; one must be cautious around them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And Tang Ziyue wanted to test what kind of person Chen Jie was.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chen Jie held the black pieces, placing the first directly at Tianyuan!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That is, right in the middle of the board on that black point!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Seeing this move, Tang Ziyue was shocked; after all, it’s not common for anyone other than a skilled expert to dare to play directly at the center; usually, players contest the corners first.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tang Ziyue looked at Chen Jie and said, ’Master Chen, you’re quite confident in yourself!’\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chen Jie smiled without a word.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tang Ziyue then placed a stone in the upper right corner.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Go is a game about surrounding territory; one wins by enclosing the opponent’s stones. Thus, it is usual to encircle from the edge inward, not seen placing stones in the middle to enclose outwardly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But this Chen Jiusi obviously was no ignorant novice; thus, his move must have a deeper significance.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Maybe I just haven’t seen it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"At this point, Chen Jie procured another stone and seemingly casually remarked to Tang Ziyue, ’Mr. Tang, today’s action wouldn’t happen to be a trap set by you and the Gang Leader, would it?’\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tang Ziyue paused then chuckled, ’You jest, Master Chen. We are all brothers here; how could we scheme against you?’\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"On hearing this, Chen Jie sharply placed the stone next to the first one.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He said with a chuckle, ’Only one’s own kind can truly stab one in the back. You and the Gang Leader, pushing me into this situation using Uncle Zhong, is truly deceitful.’\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As Tang Ziyue studied the board, his expression flickered indeterminably; he did not understand why Chen Jie played as he did.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In Go, surrounding the enemy is key, thus normally one would space out the stones to capture the opponent within. What’s the meaning of placing them together?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is it amateurish? Or is there another intent?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Especially considering the comments, it seemed like a metaphor.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Holding a stone, Tang Ziyue carefully played one in the left upper corner; he favored complex and trappy play.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He chuckled, ’You worry too much, Master Chen. It really just happened to be at Xiantao Village Ferry this time. We certainly wouldn’t have troubled Elder Wu Zhong otherwise.’\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Furthermore, Master Chen, you misunderstand the Gang Leader. Though he is stern, he still treats his guild members, treats you, very well.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hearing this, Chen Jie laughed, ’Yes, quite well indeed.’\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Snap!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He placed another black stone next to the second one, now forming a straight line of three stones.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The confusion on Tang Ziyue’s face deepened. What kind of move was this? Not even beginners would play such a foolish game!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Could it be wrong? Could this be a trap, intentionally luring me into a relaxed state?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, I must still be cautious,\" he thought and placed his stone in the lower right corner; taking control of the corners is always a wise move regardless of the plan.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chen Jie glanced at the stone Tang Ziyue had placed and then said, ’Mr. Tang, let’s make a deal; if I lose this game to you, will you tell me what your plans really are today?’\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tang Ziyue responded, ’Hehe, no plans, Master Chen, you’re too on edge. Relax. Relax.’\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chen Jie, on hearing this, said, ’Not telling the truth? It seems, Mr. Tang, you’re not thinking of opening your heart to me.’\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then, Chen Jie placed another piece next to the third, forming a line of four.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tang Ziyue watched this bizarre play, looked at Chen Jie, who then said, ’Mr. Tang, please.’\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tang Ziyue said, ’Master Chen, if I place my next piece here, I will control all four corners and you won’t be able to win.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As Tang Ziyue placed his stone in the lower left corner, effectively securing all four corners, his victory seemed assured.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chen Jie, hearing this, smiled and responded, ’Oh, you think you’ve got me defeated?’\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tang Ziyue said, ’If you hadn’t gone astray, Master Chen, you wouldn’t have allowed me to create this formation, would you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The implication in Tang Ziyue’s words was pointed, yet Chen Jie responded, ’Is this your formation, or have I not formed one? Mr. Tang, I won!’\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Snap!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chen Jie placed his last black stone, instantly connecting five stones, achieving a striking win!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh??\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tang Ziyue was dumbfounded. What was he playing at?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Neither capturing me nor cutting my dragon, plus we’ve barely started, and you claim to have won? Are you mocking me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As Chen Jie watched Tang Ziyue’s bewildered expression, he said, ’Mr. Tang, while you play your Spring and Autumn games, I play my Five in a Row. Five connected, I win! Haha, thanks, thanks!’\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tang Ziyue stood flabbergasted. What Five in a Row? What are you talking about? Utterly nonsensical!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And at this moment, Xiao Hu also came over, looked at the board and said, ’Master, five in a row, you’ve won! I thought Mr. Tang was formidable, you didn’t even stop him!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stunned by Xiao Hu’s words, Tang Ziyue muttered, ’Placed in the corners? Brother, I’m setting a position, can’t you see?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Securing power from all directions, victory is assured!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What nonsensical five in a row are you talking about?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And as Tang Ziyue looked perplexed, Xiao Hu chuckled and said, ’Mr. Tang, you didn’t think we were playing Go, did you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1003,"2026-06-02T08:00:27.457Z",1,"novelbin.me","969bf378f25710b7b504328a9a9d17b08ab9498e05587ed454dfefd8c54cc841","daily-intelligence-system-don-t-kill-me-honey-chapter-426","daily-intelligence-system-don-t-kill-me-honey-chapter-424",1778,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fdaily-intelligence-system-don-t-kill-me-honey-cover.jpg"]
