Chapter 1391
“No way, you…
“Commander Lennon wouldn’t be so young…”
Old Madam Zackman looked at Sean carefully before shaking her head and saying.
It was hard for her to believe that Commander Lennon, who defended the borders, was a young man in
his 20s.
After all, Old Master Zackman was always full of awe when he mentioned Commander Lennon.
Many people would assume that Commander Lennon must be old when a man in his 60s looked up to
him like that.
Therefore, Old Madam Zackman could not believe it, no matter what.
“I heard Old Master Zackman say he often played chess with you.
“Why don’t we play a game?”
Sean looked at Old Madam Zackman and suddenly requested.
“What?”
Old Madam Zackman froze again.
However, she quickly turned her wheelchair, pulled open a drawer, and took out a chess set.
The chess set was made of ivory. It felt smooth and of good quality.
Once the chessboard was set, Old Madam Zackman and Sean played against each other.
“Some people treat patients with medicine, others with medical equipment.
“Are you trying to cure me with chess?”
Before they started the game, Old Madam Zackman slowly looked up at Sean.
“How can I cure you if you’re not sick, Old Madam?
“I’m playing chess with you because Old Master Zackman taught me to play chess, Old Madam.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOld Madam Zackman was instantly enlightened as soon as Sean said that.
A person could lie about knowing someone, even about that person’s features and appearance, as well
as
small habits in life.
However, there were some things you could not lie about.
Everyone had their chess-playing style.
Old Madam Zackman had played thousands of times with Casper.
If Sean had learned chess from Casper, Old Madam Zackman would have been able to tell.
“I’ll go first.”
Old Madam Zackman was particularly aggressive. She picked up a pawn and placed it at the front.
A pawn could move forward one square, while a knight could move from one corner of any two-by-three
rectangle to the opposite corner.
Sean followed with a knight.
Old Madam Zackman’s chess moves were quite aggressive.
She did not look like a sick person, nor did she look like an elderly who had not eaten for two years. On
the chessboard, she was as swift and decisive as a heroine. Every move was aggressive.
It gave people an overwhelming pressure.
Sean was losing as he kept retreating. He had a hard time attacking.
Besides that, Old Madam Zackman thought Sean had made several bad moves.
Under such circumstances, it was inevitable that Old Madam Zackman felt some contempt for Sean.
“The old man wouldn’t play chess like this.”
Old Madam Zackman’s rook went up in a straight line and took two of Sean’s pawns.
“It’s not the end yet, Old Madam.”
Sean was unfazed, and his voice was calm.
“Haha…”
Old Madam Zackman shook her head slightly.
She now suspected that Henry brought Sean here to trick her.
Henry probably taught Sean to say what he just said.
However, she loved playing chess all her life, and it was nice to have someone play with her.
Therefore, she was in no hurry to kick Sean out now.
Over time, many of Sean’s chess pieces were already removed.
Most of Old Madam Zackman’s chess pieces had crossed over into Sean’s territory.
She laid out her plan and pushed forward.
Sean’s chess pieces were scattered. There was no advantage.
Old Madam Zackman was trying to figure out how to defend Sean.
However, she was now focused on attacking.
Every move was murderous.
“Watch out, Old Madam.”
Sean picked up a chess piece and slowly put it down.
Slap!
There was a clear noise when the ivory chess piece landed.
Old Madam Zackman’s eyes instantly widened at that moment.
“Well…”
Old Madam Zackman sat up straight and looked at the chessboard.
The more she looked, the more surprised she became.
Sean’s original layout seemed scattered and even meaningless.
However, the situation changed instantly as soon as Sean made that move.
Two knights formed an interlocking pattern.

Two knights were interlocked, and dozens of squares nearby were under their control.
However, Old Madam Zackman’s previous moves had been tied down, and she had no way to stop
Sean’s knights.
The disorganized game gradually took shape.
It was the beginning of Sean’s counterattack.
Old Madam Zackman withdrew her gaze. She had no choice but to continue her attack.
Thud!
Sean’s pawn moved forward and took over one of Old Madam Zackman’s chess pieces.
Then he replaced Old Madam Zackman’s chess piece with a pawn.
The situation on the chessboard was now clearer.
His move was like a cherry on the cake.
Sean’s chess game was instantly clear.
“Castling!”
Old Madam Zackman clenched her hands instantly.
The move included the king and the rook. Sean was using castling.
Old Madam Zackman could not defend herself or avoid him.
“I lost!”
Old Madam Zackman slowly put down her chess piece and surrendered with a deep sigh.
Sean smiled and said nothing.
“It’s true that I lost.
“But you still can’t prove that you knew the old man.
“And you can’t prove your identity.”
Old Madam Zackman slowly looked up at Sean.
