A board was placed on the ground and a man was crouching beside it. He was playing Chinese chess called Xiangqi on the sidewalk. Maybe the scales were against him. And he was thinking the next step to regain his power.

Because he was absorbed in playing, he didn't cast an eye on me. He was obsessed with the game and didn't have time for a strange foreigner. I just hoped that the tables were turned for him.
