The Peremptory Casey Davies -
Chapter 292 It Never Rains, But It Pours
"What did you say? Are you going to solve this chess game now?" After hearing Casey's words, Reginald's eyes widened immediately.
Casey nodded, and then reached for the chess piece on the table.
Everyone looked at Casey with disbelief, thinking that Casey was bluffing.
"Is he fooling us? It's only a few minutes passed. He actually felt that he could solve Seven Star Gathering?"
"He must be bluffing. So far, only a few masters have solved the game. If he can solve it after watching it for a short while, this game will not be famous."
"It feels like he only saw a few clues and then he thought he could solve it. In fact, he didn't see the subtlety of this game at all. He felt that he could solve it, but it was just an illusion."
Scarlett didn't believe that Casey was able to solve the chess game so quickly, either. But Casey's level was above her. This guy always surprised others. Maybe he could really shock everyone.
Casey didn't care about the people around him, but began to place pieces on the chessboard. He showed others the method in his mind.
At first, seeing Casey looking serious, everyone all smiled contemptuously, thinking that Casey was just pretending.
But as Casey's chess piece placed, everyone began to become serious. The few people who were still mocking Casey all stared at the chessboard intently.
Even Reginald frowned and stared at the chessboard. Because every time Casey dropped a piece, they would have a new understanding of the chess game. If this continued, it seemed that Casey really could solve the chess game.
Time passed by. Everyone looked surprised and shocked. At this moment, none of them dared to taunt Casey. Even at this point, Casey's level was awesome. It had been proved that Casey's strength was far above them.
Soon, Casey dropped his last piece. Then he turned his head and glanced at the people around him. He said, "It's done. We can eat."
Everyone took a deep breath and stared at Casey in disbelief. They didn't expect that Casey would actually solve the chess game.
The most important thing was that Casey only took less than twenty minutes. According to their understanding, even the top masters would take several hours to solve the chess game. Casey could solve it so fast, which was nothing short of a miracle.
"You... how could you solve this chess game so quickly? Do you know the method from the beginning, right?" Reginald was very unconvinced. He felt Casey should know the method in advance so Casey could be so fast.
"Um, didn't you just say that this chess game has only been solved by a few international masters, and they didn't tell anyone the method? How would I know in advance?" Casey said.
Everyone thought what Casey said was reasonable. Only a few international masters knew how to solve the chess game. Even if Casey got the solution from these international masters in advance, it could only show Casey knew those international masters.
After all, if Casey didn't know them, they wouldn't tell Casey the method.
No matter how, Casey was not an ordinary person.
Scarlett stared at Reginald, and said, "Why do you have so many excuses? If Casey knows the way in advance, you can also know it in advance. Is it so difficult for you to admit that Casey is excellent?" Reginald looked embarrassed. He really did not want to admit that Casey was better than him, so he made all kinds of excuses. Now his lies were directly exposed. Besides, it was Scarlett who exposed his lies. He felt so awkward that he couldn't wait to find a hole to hide in.
"Scarlett, I didn't mean that..." Reginald wanted to say something to defend himself.
Scarlett snorted, then dragged Casey to sit at the table, and said, "Sit down and order food."
After she finished speaking, she stared at Casey with all admirations. She said, "Casey, you are so amazing. I promise you that I will never make trouble for you anymore."
Casey smiled politely at her, feeling a little helpless. He could also feel Scarlett's attitude towards him, but he was already married. So Scarlett's ideas for him were destined to be unfulfilled.
Everyone took their seats at the table. Many people started to greet Casey respectfully. No matter where a person was, strength was always the only criterion for convincing people. Casey had now proven himself. Naturally, he could get the respect of these people.
Reginald wanted to sit on the other side of Scarlett. But seeing Scarlett glaring at him, he went away. When everyone looked at embarrassed Reginald, they all wanted to laugh.
At the same time, they all knew that Scarlett, who had always been cold, actually encountered the man who could turn her into a gentle little girl.
Not long afterwards, the dishes were all served. Then they began to eat and discussed tomorrow's chess game.
This competition would be held for a total of three days. Because there were a lot of people participating, the elimination system was implemented. The first two days were elimination matches, and the last day was the final.
In this game, everyone present here would all participate. If they met on the competition, they would try their best.
Listening to these people talking, Casey would occasionally talk with them. After all, this game was not difficult for him. He could easily cope with whatever situation happened.
Scarlett didn't care about the game at all. She peeked at Casey from time to the time. Reginald was so mad.
Soon, the dinner was over. After everyone showed their determination for tomorrow's game, they walked out of the private room together.
Because after knowing Casey's strength, everyone followed Casey. Even Scarlett followed Casey.
Everyone walked towards the door. At this moment, a group of people came to them. Those people were wearing uniform clothes with the trademark of Y Real Estate on the clothes.
These people were from JC Chess Association sponsored by Y Real Estate. The lead among them was the greatest opponent Casey needed to face this time, Abel.
Abel and his men also saw Casey and others. Many of them knew Scarlett. So Abel knew they were from QY Chess Association.
The moment when Abel saw them, he took the lead and walked towards them.
"What a coincidence! Scarlett, you went to J City to watch me play chess a few days ago. Why did you leave without even saying hello? Could it be that you are frightened by my strength?" Abel looked at Scarlett with a sneer.
Scarlett looked at Abel with a cold face, and said, "Get over yourself here. Your strength is indeed not bad, but it is impossible for you to win this time."
"Oh? So, you are very confident to beat me. I have also watched some videos of you playing chess. With your strength, if you want to beat me, it's impossible."
"Hmph, I can't beat you. Butt someone can beat you. Put away your pretentious face. In this world, there are always some people better than you." Scarlett said with unhappy face.
"Yeah, we have Casey, a strong helper. He solved Seven Star Gathering in less than 20 minutes. His level is definitely above you!" A man beside Scarlett said.
Abel's gaze fell on Casey. At that time, he felt that the person walking in the front was familiar, but he didn't remember where he had seen the person before, so he didn't care.
Now that the person said Casey's name, Abel knew who the person in front of him was. Casey had never seen Abel, but Abel had seen Casey. Casey was a well-known wimp in J City. Abel also specially searched for Casey's photos. So when he saw Casey at first glance, he felt familiar.
"Casey! Oh no! I'm not mistaken, right? You are here too. Listening to what they said, you are going to participate in tomorrow's game? Are you insane? You are a famous wimp in J City! Can you tell the difference between black pieces and white pieces? You dare to participate in this competition? How ridiculous!" Abel mocked mercilessly.
Those people standing behind Abel also recognized Casey. They also mocked Casey.
"Oh no, Casey? That wimp? What are those people from QY Chess Association thinking about? They can't wait to lose to us?"
"So ridiculous. Just now, that person said that Casey can win Abel. Did they not know Casey's reputation in J City? Such a wimp! Let alone win Abel, I'm afraid that even a three-year-old kid can defeat him." Hearing their ridicule, the people from QY Chess Association frowned. Among them, only Scarlett had heard of some things about Casey. It was the first time for the rest to see Casey today.
At that time, Casey solved Seven Star Gathering in less than 20 minutes, so they had only a good impression of Casey. Hearing that Casey was a wimp, they were a little confused. "What are you talking about? Why did Casey become a wimp?" Reginald asked.
"So you don't know. Casey is famous as a wimp in J City. He doesn't know anything except being raised by his wife. Now you say that you want Casey to help you win? So ridiculous. It seems that you guys really want to lose." Abel sneered.
After hearing what Abel said, the people from QY Chess Association all turned their heads to look at Casey, and cast a questioning look at Casey.
Seeing the arrogance of the people from JC Chess Association, Scarlett immediately felt angry. She said, "Don't talk nonsense here. You don't know how good Casey is. Tomorrow, you will know how ignorant you are."
Abel sneered and said, "Stop dreaming here. I guess this guy used some tricks to fool you guys. I advise you guys to investigate Casey. Pin your hopes on a wimp? QY Chess Association really makes me surprise!"
After speaking, Abel laughed and walked past them.
The people from JC Chess Association all stared mockingly from QY Chess Association, treating them as a joke.
After Abel left, the people from QY Chess Association began to ask Casey if what those people said just now was true.
Scarlett glanced at these people angrily, and said, "Haven't you seen how awesome Casey is? But you still ask him! Those people are obviously to scare us. If you guys just step into their traps, I will feel shameful for you guys."
After hearing Scarlett's words, everyone felt that it made senses. Then, they slowly quieted down.
Casey did not have any feelings to the words of Abel and others just now. As a stronger, he should learn to hide his strength and took a move when the time was right. The more these people didn't take him seriously, the greater the advantage to him.
A stronger wouldn't be impulsive. Casey did not want to focus on these meaningless things.
On the way back, Scarlett glanced at Casey somewhat puzzledly, and asked, "Abel has gone too far. But why are you not angry at all? You are so powerful. Don't you want to prove yourself?"
Casey glanced at Scarlett with a smile, then responded to her with an idiom, "It never rains, but it pours."
