[Soul of Chess] Shugui

When the sun went down, the autumn wind that had been brewing all day finally picked up.Low air pressure, ink cloud, September wind, everything is ready, just a quick whistle.

With a hurried look, the wind was blowing under his feet, and the passers-by dispersed to where they should go.

And me, where should I go?

Shinto Hikaru stood by the window of the lounge, looked at the busy pedestrians outside the window, and asked himself a question that had no answer.

Shindo Hikaru, 17 years old, professional shogi player [-]rd dan.

The wind is blowing harder and harder.The wind at the end of autumn has a strong force, howling and rushing back and forth, as if to blow away the mess after the harvest, so as to welcome the cold winter.The curtain hanging on one side was lifted by the wind and danced in mid-air, enveloping Hikari Shinito all at once.Shinto stood there without knowing how to dodge, letting a curtain wrap him up.

The wind that day must have been so strong.

Jinto finished eating the box lunch ordered by Qiyuan, and went out for a walk to digest food.

Then I saw Taya Ryo, standing at the door and looking around.

Before he could say hello, Taya walked out and met a pale-skinned girl.Taya took the lunch box from the girl, and naturally took her into the chess academy.

Shinto dodged to the side, subconsciously not wanting Taya to see him.But his gaze followed the backs of the two of them.

Everything after that was like a voyeuristic dream.No, it's not like, this is a voyeur who thinks he hasn't been discovered.Shinto submissively followed Taya and the girl instinctively, ignoring the surprised eyes around him, peeping at the joy of the two.

Taya finished the lunch brought by the girl in the lounge; Taya took the girl to visit the chess academy; Taya took the girl to the mysterious room.

The girl walked into the Youxuan Room, Taya waited quietly outside the door, and Shinto hid foolishly at the corner of the corridor.

Just when Shinto thought he was going to stand forever, the girl came out of the chess room unsteadily, her face paler.

Shinto felt that he was the kind of villain and bad guy who sneaked around in the dark, in short, the kind of person he hated before, just like Miki Zeng.

But he still couldn't restrain himself: he wanted to know who that girl was, why Taya waited for her at the door, why she ate the lunch she brought, why he took her to visit the chess academy, why why why...

Shinto felt that his head was about to explode, something was ringing, moving, destroying, destroying, bit by bit, slowly, wreaking havoc.

This feeling is so strange, it is palpitating.

And, lingering.

Shindo thought it was just a kind of curiosity at the time, a kind of curiosity about the sudden appearance of an unfamiliar person beside his good friend.

But it turns out there's more to it than just curiosity.As for what it is, Shindo Hikaru said that this is a difficult puzzle.

If you can't forget it, remember it.

This is the conclusion that Shinto? Rough nerves? Hikari came to after struggling for several nights.

But why do you still feel a little bit unhappy?Although, it's just a little bit, it's really a little bit, at most it's enough to keep me from falling asleep.

That's why I have been confused these few days, which led to today - forgetting to bring an umbrella.

……

"Shinto, Jinto, it's going to rain! Why are you still here? Waiting for the rain? Hey, Jinto!"

When Hegu Yigao saw Jinteng standing by the window again in a daze, he was wrapped up in the curtains and didn't know how to get out, and suddenly felt out of breath.

He Gu Yigao, 18 years old, is a fourth-dan professional chess player.

Standing aside, Shinichiro Ikaku looked at Shindo and Hetani, and wisely pulled away the yelling Hetani.

Shinichiro Ikaku, 21 years old, is a second-dan professional chess player.

Ah, no, the chess club!If you don't go, you will be late.Well, I don't want to make Taya angry.

After thinking about life, Shindo hurriedly got out from the curtain, and heard Taya's clear and cold voice:

"Shinto, I have something to do today, you don't need to go to the chess club."

"Then replay?"

"next time."

"Oh..." Nodded disappointedly, Shinto watched Taya's back.

Sure enough, not just a little unhappy.

Pushing open the gate of the chess academy, Toya Ryo walked to the pre-arranged place.

Toya Ryo, 17 years old, professional chess player [-]th dan.

Damn, why can't I say it.Just practiced so many times in the toilet.He was curious that time, and kept peeking behind him, thinking he hadn't been noticed, with a cautious and stupid look.

Taya raised the corners of her mouth and smiled.Then, as if thinking of something again, he pursed his lower lip.

Still have to explain it.If you fail this time, you must succeed next time!Otherwise, let him think wildly by himself, and guess where he went.

This month's game is also confused, as if I did something wrong.Although my father did not allow it, Sister Di has already agreed.And if Shinto, he is not considered an outsider.

He is my opponent for life!

"Xiao Liang and Shinto haven't been to the chess club for a long time." Ichikawa Harumi leaned on the counter and asked the Awara chess player who had just entered the door, "Ashiwara chess player, did you see the two of them in the chess academy today?"

"I don't have a match today." Ashihara Hiroyuki explained.

"Well, I haven't seen them in the chess club for a long time since the two of them went to Taya's house to replay the game." Shihe had an expression of "I'm so sorry, so sorry, I want to see the elementary school students quarreling", "That's Teacher Taya's seminar. What? Teacher Taya has returned to China recently. Logically speaking, since Teacher Taya is back, Xiao Liang should come to the chess club to resume the game."

"The seminar hasn't been held yet." Ashihara shook his head.

"Hey——Taya-sensei has been back for so long, there must be one or two times. Teacher's body..."

"It's not a physical problem." Lu Yuan quickly denied, "It's just that after the teacher came back from China, he hasn't been out much, and he said it needs a period of rest."

"That's right... that's right, Teacher must have played a lot of chess in China." Shi He muttered, frowning.

Lu Yuan smiled and said: "Now that the teacher is more free, he naturally participates in more competitions than before. And China is so big, I heard that the teacher has gone to several cities, and each city has different competitions."

"Yes." Shihe nodded, as if thinking about something.

When Lu Yuan saw it, he didn't bother, "Then, I'll go in first..."

"Ah, I remembered. The last time Xiaoliang came, he was with a girl. The two of them have been chatting, but it seems that it's not..." Before Lu Yuan could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Shihe with an excited face. Just stick it on the counter.

"Uh, that pronunciation should be in Chinese. I heard Xiaoliang before when he was learning Chinese. Could it be that the girl was brought back from China by the teacher?" Shihe was puzzled. Why did he bring a girl from China to be his daughter-in-law? ?

"Oh, could it be..." Lu Yuan joked with a slight smile.

"Not necessarily!" Shi He covered the corners of his mouth and smiled, "But it's also the age at this time. Sigh, Xiao Liang was so cute when he was young, how did he grow up so suddenly..."

"Yeah, I remember the first time I went to the teacher's house to attend a seminar and saw Xiaoliang..."

The two elderly men began to reminisce about the past.

Bang!

"Shinto, you are here. But Xiaoliang is not here." Miss Shihe saw the shadow of Jinto standing behind the door, thinking that he was looking for Xiaoliang.

Lu Yuan stepped aside with a depressed face: Really, the chatting is too vigorous, it's in the way.

"Ah, no, there's no need. I'll go back first." Shindo responded and ran away.

Shihe and Awara looked at each other with doubts on their faces, a little puzzled: Why is Shinto so flustered?

At the entrance of the chess club, an empty coke can was lying on the ground.As the autumn wind blows, the Coke cans are pushed and rolled up by the strong wind, making a metallic sound, like a group of people who have been driven out of their homes and wander around, with nowhere to rely.

The rain fell in a patter, the low air pressure that had permeated the day eased, and the coolness of late autumn hit the hearts of the people.

It's strange, what am I panicking about?Taya is not here, so you can go to the chess club to have a look.Long time no go.

Shinto wandered around aimlessly, he just didn't want to go home.

It's troublesome not to bring an umbrella, but it's not bad to get caught in the rain occasionally.

boom!

A lady behind her walked out of the office building with an umbrella, and when she passed Jinteng, she gave him a strange look.

Shinto turned his head and gave him a big smile.The lady withdrew her gaze in shock, quickened her pace and walked away.

Be taken for a fool.

Shinto was sad, watching passers-by walking past him with all kinds of umbrellas, and suddenly remembered Zuo Wei's reaction when he saw a modern umbrella for the first time.

That guy screamed with excitement.In those days, he has always stood behind me, accompanied me, and guarded me... But now, he is still by my side, in my chess game!

Just the company by my side, nothing more.A little bit, lonely.

Shinto was lonely and stupid, but Miss Ichikawa's words suddenly sounded in his mind.

"It's also the age of this time..."

'this time'?Is this the kind of existence of the girl who came to the Chess Academy last time?

"Shinto, why are you here...?"

who?Shinto looked around, and found that Taya was standing not far away holding an umbrella, and there was another person standing beside him.

Shindo walked over, oh, it's that girl.

"Shinto, what are you... you didn't bring an umbrella?" Taya saw Shinto standing alone in the rain with his hands in his pockets.

"Yeah, I forgot to bring it." Shinto stretched out his hand and scratched his head, just in time to catch a glimpse of the girl's narrow smile.

"Idiot, it's raining so hard, don't you know how to avoid it, since you know you don't have an umbrella?" Ta Ya said angrily.

"Hey, I didn't forget on purpose! Besides..." Shinto was about to continue, when he felt the girl's betting gaze, he hurriedly left the sentence "I won't bother you anymore" and ran away.

Taya didn't have time to stop him, and watched as Shinto wandered around in the crowd and disappeared.

"Hey, Shinto..."

"Xiao Liang, didn't you say that the vine chess player has something to do today? Could it be that he was wandering in the rain on the road?" the girl asked with a smile.

"I, no, Sister Di, I forgot to follow up with Teng and say that you want to see him." Taya met the girl's smiling face and lied with difficulty.

"Well, then let's go back early."

"Ah."

Taya glanced at the direction where Shinto left, and frowned.

A sneeze!

Damn, why should I run away!

Shinto, who ran home in desperation, sneezed, recalling how stupid he was, feeling extremely annoyed.

Ah Choo!Ah Choo! !Ah - sneeze! ! !

Ahhh, I don't have a cold.Not so unlucky.

Shinto suddenly fell on the bed, wrapping himself into a big chrysalis.
