He had managed to find Toby yesterday and was hoping that Toby could help him find the master who played chess online.

Toby seemed quite proud, "I've already looked, and we have the target! The person we're after, the chess player, is almost certainly a student at Colin High School!"

He gave Mitch a look, which seemed to say, "Aren't I a regular SherlockHolmes!"

Mitch stood up immediately, "Great, yes. I'm going to Colin HighSchool right now!"

***

Didn't this guy want to find out how he knew?

Toby grabbed Mitch and explained to him, "Firstly, KAP always played chess at a fixed time at about eight o'clock in the evening. Except for a weekend when she played whenever. That is to say, during the workday, she is only free after eight o'clock in the evening. What kind of people has a schedule like that? I did a survey. Only Colin High School students finish school at seven-thirty! So, she's probably a student of Colin High School."

Mitch was doubtful, "What about all the people who work? Wouldn't this also fit with office hours?"

Toby shook his head and said, "No, I don't think so. If an adult inwork is so skilled at chess, they would have gone straight to the international chess competitions where they can make more money! Only a brilliant student would keep themselves at this level, and I think she's simply enjoying this demonstration all over the world without anyone knowing who she really is!"

Mitch felt that his analysis was not completely free of loopholes, but there was logic to his words, "You're right, that does make some sense. I might as well give it a go."

He had wanted to go that day, but it was too late, and the students had already finished school. So he waited until noon the next day before he turned up at the school gates.

Sophia was very surprised, "I don't know you were so good!"

She had wondered who could have enticed Mitch to come all the way here. She never suspected it might be Molly! She was genuinely and thoroughly impressed.

Mitch got excited, "Well, Miss, would you play chess with me?"

Sophia interpreted his words. Molly seemed a little embarrassed, thought about it, and said, "I have to go home for lunch. Otherwise, my mum will be worried. How about this? You go and eat first. I'll come back early for afternoon classes, and we can go to the activity center where our chess group usually plays chess?"

Mitch was very happy and repeatedly nodded, "Fine, fine. I'll wait for you. Thank you!"

They all parted ways. When she returned to her class in the afternoon, she found Molly looking a little down.

Curious about the results of the game, she asked Molly as she passed her, "Well? Did you win?"

Molly looked up at Sophia, frowned slightly, and said, "Of course, I won."

Sophia was very surprised, "Really? You beat Mitch Watson! That's amazing!!"

Molly paused, "Mitch Watson? Which Mitch Watson? Why does that name sound so familiar?"

"That world champion! Didn't you recognize him?" Replied Sophia.

Molly was completely shocked, "That's him?!"

"Yeah… Don't you love chess? How could you not have recognized him?"

Molly sighed, "Well, since it was Mitch Watson, I can admit I lost, but now I'm not ashamed. I did wonder. He beat me in two minutes. I was like, who is this guy? And there we go, he turns out to be the world champion! Why did he come to our school? He said he was looking for a master. Who could be that person?"

Sophia shrugged.

After returning home in the evening, she logged into her blog and saw a private letter sent by the organizers of the chess competition. It asked her to enter the game interface and play chess with a player called "Chubby" and gave her a password.

After the chess tournament, the game website continued to operate, and people could still use their blog accounts to log indirectly. As a matter of fact, part of the tournament's function was to promote the website. The site allowed you to set the privacy of your game by setting a password for your tablet. Only those who knew the password would be able to enter, play, or spectate.

Sophia found table seventy-four, clicked into it, entered the password, and was ready to start the game.

She clicked the start button, and her opponent did likewise.

Three minutes later, Sophia had checkmated her opponent's king. Her opponent immediately clicked the "Start" and continued to play against her.

In less than ten minutes, Sophia had won three games in a row. The profile photo of "Chubby" darkened. They'd gone offline.

Sophia also exited the game. The organizers sent her a message and told her that the money would be sent to her card account.

She couldn't believe it. She had just made three hundred dollars in ten minutes. It was so easy!

The organizers had proved they were trustworthy. The three thousand dollars' prize money had been sent to her account the day after the contest.

It was so easy to make money off these rich people.

She was just about to log off when she got another message from the officials.

"Hi. Another gentleman wants to play a game of chess with you. Are you available? He's offered five hundred dollars for a game!"

Sophia was surprised.

Was chess really that lucrative a game? Were chess players so rich? Suddenly she felt she had found a way to get rich.

Sophia immediately replied, "Yes. I'm available!"

They sent the table number and the password where the game would take place. Sophia remembered the numbers and found the appointed table to 'sit down.'

"She agreed. You can play chess now." Toby hung up the phone.

"Great." Mitch didn't even turn his head; he just immediately clicked the start button.

Mitch had returned from Colin High School crestfallen.

"She wasn't at Colin High School. I found the chess 'master' of that school, but she was no good."

Toby frowned, "My analysis is flawless, I'm sure she's there.. Maybe you just didn't find her this time."
