Daily synopsis: My superpowers are updated every season

The genius girl Beth looked at the female reporter who suddenly and sincerely praised her, and she was a little confused by the other party's sudden change.

But she didn't care.

Except for the fact that she was a lunatic just now, which made her have some mood swings, she was completely indifferent to the rest of the questions.

The female reporter is right, ordinary people are insensitive to many of the ecstatic feelings of geniuses, and geniuses are also insensitive to many of the ecstatic feelings of ordinary people.

It's just that the words genius and madman made her feel harsh and uncomfortable.

Because it reminds her of her life experience,

Her mother was also a genius girl since childhood, and later became a Ph.D. in mathematics at Cornell University at a young age. Unfortunately, she had a relationship dispute with a married professor and was not accepted. She suffered from mental problems and chose to commit suicide.

At that time, he was driving her and planned to take her with him. After the car accident, she was safe and sound. She watched her mother die on the spot and was sent to an orphanage at a young age.

There, she saw that the school janitor who lived in the basement liked to play chess, and she was immediately fascinated. She played with him, showing her side as a genius chess player.

With the help of the school janitor, she embarked on the road to chess competition. She was adopted at the age of thirteen. Accompanied by her adoptive mother, she participated in chess competitions in various states and won prizes.

The reporter's words not only brought back the unpleasant memory of her biological mother committing suicide in front of her, but also reminded her of this chess friend named Zhuge whom she just met online.

The appearance was so sudden, as if she had seen the school staff play chess for the first time after being adopted by the orphanage. That night, she was lying on the bed and looking at the ceiling, and a shining chess board seemed to appear in front of her eyes, and the chess pieces were attacking each other as she thought. Just as bizarre.

She once suspected that this Zhuge was the embodiment of herself playing chess in her mind.

When the female reporter said it, it was a fantasy or delusion. This was the first thing that came to her mind.

Don't blame her for overthinking.

Not only was her mother a genius and then turned into a madman, she was also known as a genius girl, and what was going on in her mind was completely invisible to others.

Speaking of which, ordinary people looked at her like a madman.

And the most important thing is that she is American and grew up in an American orphanage, so she passively developed the habit of taking drugs.

She also fell in love with alcoholism from her alcoholic adoptive mother. Whether it was drugs or alcoholism, the hazy state of drunkenness made her sometimes unable to distinguish between reality and illusion.

Not to mention that as soon as this Zhuge showed up, he invited her with his favorite and best gambit of the Queen's Gambit. Although he couldn't see anyone, in her eyes, he simply said: "I'll teach you how to use it." A real gambit!"

If it’s not the other person you play chess with in your mind every time, then who is it?

But she soon realized that this Zhuge was not another embodiment of her.

Because it’s so awesome!

She is no match at all!

The gap was so big that she didn't believe it was her.

She also studied her previous biggest opponent, the bear-like Varisi. Although it was said to be an invincible robot, it didn't give her the same feeling as Zhuge's absolute pressure on her.

Moreover, she was sober during the game and did not take drugs or alcohol. After she asked for the name, the name Zhuge also made her search the Internet for a long time before she found out that it really existed.

In China, this is still a symbol of wisdom!

Therefore, the number one opponent in her mind now has been naturally changed from the furry bear Varsi to

Became the Zhuge of China!

"Beth, are you okay?" The adoptive mother stopped the unfriendly interview and sent the female reporter and her party away. When she came back, she saw her adopted daughter lost in thought and couldn't help but asked with concern.

Not to mention the relationship between the adoptive mother and the adopted daughter, she is now the agent of the genius adopted daughter, flying her around the world to earn the prize money from chess competitions, and divides 15% of it as her own income, so she must pay attention to the status of her cash cow. .

"I'm fine." Beth shook her head, stood up and walked to the table, looking at the chessboard on the table in trance.

Seeing this, the adoptive mother knew that her adopted daughter had fallen into her own world again and had improved her chess skills, so she silently exited the room, leaving enough space for her adopted daughter.

Beth silently watched the end game on the chessboard, lost in thought, until her phone vibrated, waking her up. She took the phone and looked at it, and saw the familiar chess entry notification on it.

She was mentally shocked and quickly restored the chessboard. Then she played first with black, setting up an opening with the queen abandoning pawns. Then she followed the information on the Internet and moved the opposite chess piece one step. After taking another step, she moved herself The action was quickly edited and sent out.

Almost as soon as she sent it, the reply came. This speed shocked and aggrieved her.

Because this means that the gap between the two sides is too big, and the other side does not notice her hidden killer moves at every step.

After losing a game, she looked sharply, got up, took out two things from her closet, and placed them on both sides of the chessboard.

On one side is a medicine bottle.

On one side is a wine bottle.

She wanted to stimulate herself and challenge this mysterious and powerful online chess friend Zhuge, but to her surprise, she was defeated faster and more completely this time.

You must know that she has been playing chess since she was a child, and after taking drugs, it seemed to have cheated her. Those who didn't know it thought she was playing GG for the pharmaceutical group, but she could indeed see those chessboards appearing in front of her eyes, and they moved according to her heart.

Moreover, every time she took drugs and drank alcohol, while half asleep and half awake, her mind seemed to be spinning faster, and all kinds of strange and wonderful ideas kept coming to her.

It was also because of this that she was able to advance rapidly from the beginning with no experience, and even turned defeat into victory and defeated many veteran top players.

This time, in order to let Zhuge see her strongest state, she held drugs in one hand and wine in the other. After taking drugs, she would drink.

Ziyi felt that the "invincible" state appeared again, but she didn't expect to lose faster and more miserably.

When she was stunned and puzzled, her mobile phone vibrated again. She picked it up and saw that it said: "Are you taking drugs or drinking? Drugs and alcohol will only numb your nerves. Even if they make you excited and full of inspiration for a while, they will eventually damage your IQ.

If you do this again next time, I think our communication will end here. I only want to communicate with real genius chess players, and don't want to waste time with drug addicts and alcoholics!"

These words had a huge impact on Beth.

In the past few years, no one told her these things. From the orphanage where she lived, they were forced to feed them drugs to keep them quiet, well-behaved, calm and easy to manage. After the incident was exposed, they were forced to abandon this system openly.

But she was still young at that time and was already addicted. She desperately needed this, and finally she went to the pharmacy and stuffed these drugs that were still in large quantities into her mouth as food for revenge.

Later, she was adopted. Her adoptive mother was an alcoholic. Seeing that she could win a prize, she not only acquiesced to her taking her own tranquilizers, but also rewarded her with alcohol after she won the prize.

At the age of 16, she was free as a mess.

She knew that this was not good, but the people and things around her were conveying a message to her in person, that this was okay!

Everyone did this!

It was not until now that she was despised and looked down upon by her more talented first opponent Zhuge, who threatened to cut off contact, that she really had a deep understanding of this matter.
