Side Stories: The Release of Gypsy Rose

A Chinese chess player, Jan Sheng Long, recently won a large prize in a chess tournament.

However, there were suspicions that he was cheating by using an unconventional method. It was rumored that he had an internet-connected set of anal beads that allowed someone else to remotely guide his moves. While the Chinese government denies these claims and attributes his victory to skill, there were some strange circumstances surrounding the incident. After a night of partying, Jan Sheng Long reportedly defecated in the bathtub of his hotel room, and digital anal beads were discovered in the feces. The player claims that he was in a rush to alleviate his bowels and chose the bathtub as a result. However, many question this explanation. Despite the controversy, the Chinese government stands by their assertion that there was no cheating involved.
