He decided to pay more attention to "Knowing A Person." He thought she might bring about unexpected good things.
At the end of the game, the group of chess masters was utterly silent. They couldn't believe their eyes. Mitch had been world champion for several years, and he had seemed almost invincible. How could he lose, like this, to an unknown player?
It was inexplicable.
After a period of silence, the chat group suddenly blew up.
"I can't believe it! Mitch has met his match!"
"Who the hell is this person? Why did she enter the competition? Was she here for Mitch?"
"Is Mitch here? Are you all right?"
The topic of discussion first revolved around the motivation of this player, "Knowing A Person," to participate in the competition. No one thought she came for the money. That motive was completely ignored. No one even mentioned it. Most people thought she had come to challenge the chess world.
Her target must have been Mitch. She must have expected him to come to this game.
