Korean TV series: King of Peninsula 1997

Chapter 122 Chess Academy
Choi Doo-il stood in front of Li You, reported everything that had happened, and respectfully handed over the camera's memory card.

"Boss, this is a video."

Li You nodded and put the memory card into the drawer. He looked at Cui Douri's clothes and said, "Well done."

“Are you imitating me?”

Choi Doo-il straightened his windbreaker with the collar turned outward, "It looks so handsome on the president."

He swung his hand in the air a few times in the shape of a gun, and his other hand was still hanging on his arm due to the gunshot wound. "It looks so cool."

Li You smiled and shook his head, "Is Wang Wu here?"

Choi Doo-il stood up again, "I'm here, waiting outside."

Li You remembered that Wang Wu said he had seen something similar to bullet time that day, and frowned, "Go and do your thing, and let him in by the way."

"Yes, President."

Wang Wu walked in with a smile on his face, "President."

"Don't call me president," Li You said helplessly. Wang Wu really looked too old. "Just call me boss."

Wang Wu chuckled twice, "Boss, do you want to hear the story I was going to tell you that day?"

"story?"

"No, no," Wang Wu waved his hand, "I saw it with my own eyes."

"We went to Thailand to do some work," he said attentively, "and when we got there, we found that someone was already shooting at the Thai guy in the room."

He made a 'bang bang' sound from his mouth, "most of the things in the room were shot to pieces"

"Then the Thai man hid behind the cabinet," Wang Wu gestured, "He leaned his head out from the left and tried to shoot. We didn't even see the action clearly, but we saw the killer swing his hand. Our eyes blurred and the Thai man fell down."

Wang Wu said confidently, "What I saw was almost the same as what you made that day, boss."

He thought about it and frowned, "No, it's different."

"The boss's gun was faster than his, but his bullets seemed to be wrong." The more he thought about it, the more wrong it seemed. "I seem to remember that he shot from the right."

Wang Wu's description was so vague that Li You couldn't figure out the specific situation.

But he remembered a very famous work, in which the people did have abilities similar to bullet time, as well as another shooting skill that could be called the killer's ceiling.

"What else?"

Wang Wu thought for a moment, "We haven't been to many other places. But we heard that there is a hotel in Hong Kong, and the people there are very powerful."

Are the people in Hong Kong hotels very powerful?
Li You narrowed his eyes. The description was too vague. In fact, his first contact with professional killers in the true sense was with Wang Wu and his gang.

Regarding the killer's hotel, Li You's heart skipped a beat. Could it be...
There are a lot of things involved later.

He shook his head. "Go back first, and tell me if you remember anything."

"Okay boss."

Li You held a cigarette in his mouth, his eyes cold.

The two old guys, Song Donghe and Zhang Shouji, have been executed, and the emperor's heart has temporarily stabilized. The next step is to start promoting the birth of Kinmen.

At the chess academy, Yin Xuanyou politely paid the fee.

Looking at Yoon Hyun-woo's back, the two exquisitely dressed reception girls whispered and discussed his appearance.

The sunlight shines through the window and onto the dark wooden floor of the chess room.

The light in the room is soft, and there is a landscape painting hanging on the wall. The clouds and mist in the painting bring a sense of tranquility and elegance.

The Go table occupies the center of the room, with neatly placed black and white chess pieces on the table, giving off a faint luster.

The air in the room was filled with a faint scent of tea. Occasionally, the hustle and bustle of the city could be heard through the glass. The silhouettes of the two players were reflected on the chessboard.

Li You took off his coat and dressed in a dark suit. He leaned forward slightly, staring at the chessboard with a frown on his face.

Qian Xinyu on the opposite side held her chin elegantly, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised.

Li You sighed, "Does Teacher Qian have many students?"

Qian Xinyu smiled gently, "After all, I'm just a Go teacher who has been employed for a short time, and I haven't recruited many students."

Li You looked at Qian Xinyu in front of him. She was wearing a simple professional suit and her eyes were focused and calm, as clear as black and white chess pieces.

Although he is young, he seems like a real Go teacher.

"President Li plays Go well," Qian Xinyu nodded gently, "but his offensiveness is a bit too strong."

She looked directly at Li You and said, "You need to be more patient when learning Go. You need to look for opportunities while waiting, and then seek breakthroughs while maintaining stability."

Qian Xinyu's fingers slowly unfolded and the last piece was placed. Li You looked at the chessboard quietly, and after a while, he shook his head, "Teacher is teacher, I lost."

"I'm not worthy of being called Teacher Li," Qian Xinyu said with a polite smile, "Is this the end of today's class?"

"It seems that Teacher Qian has other students," Li You stood up with a smile, "I benefited a lot from playing chess with Teacher Qian today."

He put on his windbreaker and said, "But sometimes the style of Go is not suitable for reality."

In reality, Teacher Qian still needs to be more proactive and not always passively accept and then fight back.

Sometimes it is more meaningful to proactively look for opportunities and launch offensive actions.”

Li You put on his windbreaker and smiled as he walked out the door. "Why don't you go in and listen to the class? I asked you to pay for two classes."

Yin Xuanyou stood respectfully at the door, lowering his head. "I don't have much talent in Go, and it's easy to disturb the president's thinking if I'm standing next to him."

"You."

Li You shook his head and walked down the stairs, just in time to meet the indifferent man who had just walked in.

"President Li," Li Zicheng was still respectful when he met Li You in private, but this time his heart skipped a beat when he saw Li You.

Li You smiled calmly, "Brother Zicheng is also here to learn Go?"

Li Zicheng knew that Li You could call him that, but he couldn't respond.

He controlled his facial expression and said, "Yes, President Li."

Li Zicheng raised his head stiffly, "I usually use Go to relieve my mood."

He paused, "I was resting there today, and nothing unexpected happened."

In front of the two receptionists, Li Zicheng did not mention the names of Beidamen and Zaihupai. "Is your Go teacher also Mr. Qian?"

Li Zicheng looked into Li You's eyes. His eyes were deep and he couldn't tell what he was thinking. He felt a little nervous and said, "Yes."

He replied expressionlessly, "When I first came to the chess academy, she started working there. It just so happened that other teachers didn't have any vacancies, so I learned chess from Teacher Qian."

"Good vision," Li You patted Li Zicheng's shoulder affectionately, "Teacher Qian is very good at chess. Although I just signed up for her class today, I can understand a little bit."

"Especially because the chess moves are peaceful and upright, it is very suitable for relaxing the mood."

Li Zicheng nodded.

Li You whispered, "What's going on with Jaeho recently?"

He smiled and said, "I have some free time recently, so I can help you."

Li Zicheng remembered that there had been no news about Zhang Shouji recently. His pupils shrank slightly, and he calmed down secretly, "They are still arguing. They are really angry."

"Okay then," Li You stepped forward, "Let's go to Brother Zicheng's house for dinner tonight? Lao Ding has invited me many times."

"This time I'm going to try my sister-in-law's cooking."

Li Zicheng was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head, "Then we will wait for President Li at home tonight."

"Remember to send the address to Xuanyou," Li You waved at Li Zicheng behind him.

December is already early winter in South Korea. The weather is very good today, and the sunshine is like a light golden gauze, spreading on the streets.

The midday sun penetrated the thin clouds and shone obliquely on Li You, who was wearing a flowing windbreaker. He had just stepped out of this not-so-tall building.

The shadow behind was lengthened by the sunlight and projected onto the marble floor on the first floor of the chess academy.

The sunlight danced on the ends of his hair, creating a slight luster. The texture of his dark suit appeared particularly profound in the interweaving of light and shadow.

Li You put his hands in the pockets of his windbreaker and went out into the afternoon sun. "Xuanyou, have you booked a restaurant for lunch?"

"According to Madam's request, we have reserved the Sky Garden for you and Madam," Yin Xuanyou paused, "but... we haven't reserved the whole place."

Li You raised his eyebrows, "Do I look like someone who would book the entire place for everything?"

Although Yoon Hyunwoo didn't say anything, Li You could still see it from his attitude.

I seem to be like this.

Li You waved his hand and said, "Don't just stand there, leave now."

"Yes, President." Yoon Hyun-woo adjusted his glasses and stepped forward to open the car door for Li You.

Li Zicheng walked into the Go classroom on the second floor with heavy steps, his eyes alert and calm, and sat down in the seat where Li You had just sat.

Sitting opposite Qian Xinyu, the atmosphere was a little subtle.

The black and white chess pieces were on the table, representing the unfinished game between Li You and Qian Xinyu. Although it was not finished, the black chess pieces had been forced into a desperate situation.

"What did Li You say to you?" Li Zicheng's eyes were a little complicated.

Qian Xinyu gently pinched the chess piece in her hand and said softly, "We just played some chess and talked about the ideas of chess."

Li Zicheng nodded slightly, tapping his fingers on the tabletop, making a crisp sound, "Can you tell me about it?"

Qian Xinyu looked strange, "Should you report to me?"

"There are some things you don't understand," Li Zicheng lowered his head, "Li You is a very dangerous person, don't underestimate him."

"Sometimes you can tell a person's character from how he plays chess," Qian Xinyu said confidently, "Li You has a strong desire for control."

“And extremely aggressive.”

"Then you should be more cautious," Li Zicheng shook his head. "Although I only know a little bit about Go, I know something about Li You."

"You know," he pointed at the chess game on the table, "if his plan and his goal fail, do you know what he will do?"

"He will indeed lose in Go, but not in real life, Xinyu." Li Zicheng looked at the girl who had just graduated from the police academy and participated in the undercover operation.

"In reality, if he knew that his plan had failed, given his character..."

Li Zicheng gestured with both hands from the chessboard, "He will overturn the chessboard and destroy all the layouts and chess pieces of both sides."

"Then kill the person who is playing chess."

Li Zicheng sighed, "I did come here temporarily today, but I didn't expect to run into him."

He hesitated for a moment, "Anyway, I'm just reminding you of Li You's danger. Don't use him as a pawn."

For some reason, Li Zicheng couldn't say what he wanted to say.

He came here today to tell her that the incident with Song Dong-hyuk in Busan was done by Lee Woo, and it is very likely that Jang Shou-ki has been eliminated now.

Li Zicheng thought silently for a while and chose to skip the previous part. "Zhang Shouji may have been eliminated by Li You."

He looked at Qian Xinyu's questioning eyes and shook his head, "I don't know what means he used, but he made a promise to Ding Qing and me."

“It will put Beidaemun in third place.”

Qian Xinyu's face turned serious, "Are you serious?"

"real."

She frowned. "What do you think?"

"I have no idea," Li Zicheng lowered his eyes, "You are not undercover, you don't know how much pressure Li You brings."

"Every time he frowned, I felt like I was going to die in the next second."

"Beidamen has no right to refuse whatever Li You said, so I persuaded Ding Qing to accept Li You's conditions."

"Is Jiangnan Industrial so strong?" Qian Xinyu was a little unconvinced. "Even if Beidamen is defeated, it won't scare you. This is not the Senior Li I know."

"So I said, you are not undercover agents lurking inside," Li Zicheng gritted his teeth.

“Sometimes bystanders don’t see things as clearly as those involved.”

Of course Li Zicheng was afraid. His biggest wish in life was to have a wife and children and a warm bed, and then to be a stable policeman.

Being an undercover agent, I have already gained Ding Qing's trust. I just need to do it slowly, but facing a guy who never plays by the rules.
There was nothing he could do.
