[Soul of Chess] Shugui

Ta Ya sat in the chess viewing room, watching the white chess gradually weaken...

After the two quarreled last night, they never said a word.

Whenever Taya wanted to stir up a topic, Shinto would avoid talking about it, and turned to leave.Taya looked at the alienated back with a wry smile, and only hoped that Shinto would not leave any regrets in the chess game.

But now...

Lost.

Shinto threw away the Shirako tightly clutched in his hands, and lowered his head.

"I surrender."

Before the two of them finished clearing the chessboard, the reporters who had been waiting outside rushed in.

On the TV screen in the chess viewing room, Shinto's lowered head appeared.

Taya let out a foul breath, raised his head, and slowly leaned on the back of the chair.

On the old ceiling, there are many irregular spots.

An indescribable emotion gradually occupied the space in his chest.

"Master Toya, don't you want to go and see Shinto chess player?" The chess player who was in the lounge together asked politely.

"No need," Taya said.

"Then we'll go there first."

"Ok."

The sound of tables and chairs moving gradually subsided, and Taya closed her eyes.

No, there is no need.

"Taya Ryo, what are you still doing here?!" He Gu's voice suddenly broke in, "Ah Guang lost the game, why don't you go and comfort him?"

"Yigao, don't be so impulsive." There is also Yijiao-kun's voice, why is it so lively all of a sudden.

"Taya Ryo, speak up. Don't think that I don't know you're still awake if you close your eyes." Recklessly, carelessly, do whatever you want.

Taya opened his eyes, looked at He Gu who was still walking towards him with one arm pulled by Yi Jiao, and said, "Why don't you guys go?"

As soon as He Gu heard this, he became even more angry: "You ask me, what about yourself? Ta Yaliang, what is your attitude?! You two have been so strange since last week. Don't think I can't see it! Isn't it? Did you bully Ah Guang?"

Kazuya, are you sure it wasn't after Ikaku told you that you discovered something was wrong between Shinto and Taya?

Yijiao held Hegu with one hand, and helped his eyes with the other: "Yigao, don't say that. We don't know anything, and we have no position to blame them."

"Stand, what kind of position do I care about my friends!" He Gu Chong Yijiao roared, then turned his head to face Taya again, "I don't care what happened to you and Aguang, but Aguang is very sad now, he Just ran out without being interviewed. Everyone cares about him. You are still sitting here with your eyes closed. Where did you take the toughness from me that night? You just let yourself go and hurt Ah Light? Well, you just wait here, I will find it myself!"

"Yigao, you can't... wait, I'll go with you." Before Taya could think of a rebuttal, Hegu ran out angrily again.Yijiao just wanted to say something, but in the end he followed Hegu and left.

Taya stared blankly at the door, unable to digest the news Hegu brought for a while.

He stood up and walked outside the door, and found that the chess academy was still busy and solemn as always, and it hadn't changed because of someone's departure, and it wouldn't be turbulent with his state of mind.It is always so old and heavy, with the charm of historical precipitation.

Only Go, only Go, never deceive yourself.

Shinto's heart was in a mess.

Because of me, because of SAI.

Taya suddenly ran wildly, just like when he was 12 years old, he chased impulsively and ignorantly.

"Mr. Taya, the chess academy has sent the chess records, would you like to have a look?" Zidi walked into the game room with a stack of freshly released chess records.

There is a chess box on the left and right sides of Toya Yukihiro, and he plays chess with himself.

Hearing the voice of the purple flute, he nodded slightly, but did not make any other movements.

Zidi was also used to Taya Yukihiro's style, so she found a chessboard and sat down, and began to set the score.

Before the chess game reached the middle game, Zidi's brows were already frowned.

How could Jinto's round become such a mess.Kurata was too kind to respond so flusteredly and carelessly, but he persisted until the end.

However, these few moves are clearly beginners!

With a novice appearing in such a chaotic chess pattern, should it be said that Shinto is bold and aggressive, or is he out of order?

Zi Di looked at the chess board and gradually fell into deep thought.

Looking at it, she suddenly recalled when she first came to this world.

He was clearly dying, but when he opened his eyes, he saw a bunch of strangers surrounding him, and how could he, who had watched "Soul of Chess" for decades, not be able to see those obvious features.

Zhao Shi with curly hair and an extremely pure look, Le Ping who is almost a copy of He Gu, Mr. Yang Hai, Lu Li chess player and some familiar people.

But before he could react, a burst of inexplicable heart palpitations made him almost faint from the pain.It was also during this time that I received the memory from the original owner of the body.

Purple flute...Congenital heart disease...Orphans...Chess players from the Chinese Chess Academy...

During the game, I had a heart attack... so I took advantage of it?

Not long after waking up, the doctor did some routine checks.

After the diagnosis, the people who visited me also left.

And during this period of time, I was really sure that this was the world of "Soul of Chess", and it was the third year after Zuo Wei disappeared.

So, what is the meaning of my rebirth?

In this world of chess spirits that I am not familiar with, why do I exist?

Such questions have been bothering me during the boring days of hospitalization.

When he was discharged from the hospital, the Chess Academy issued a suspension notice. The reason for the suspension was that his body had not fully recovered.

I am very aware of the situation of my new body, so I naturally accepted it calmly, and with the assistance of the Qiyuan, I opened a small Weiqi cram school as a source of income.

This kind of life makes me feel that I seem to have returned to my previous life, back to those days when I was also playing with Go.

Until Tayao visited the Chinese Chess Academy, a curious follower, but accidentally won the opportunity to play chess with Tayao.

It's a pity that the body can't hold it when it's only half down. Who said that this body can't stand the toss?But maybe I'm too excited.

Regardless of past life or present life, since I left the world of professional Go, I have seldom been able to play chess so freely.

It's just that after waking up again, Taya Yukio actually wanted to adopt himself, I thought I had time-traveled again.

But what does this trajectory indicate?

"Purple flute, purple flute, purple flute?" Mrs. Mingzi called her new good daughter several times, but she still couldn't get a response, so she stretched out her hand and pushed her.

"Ah, what's the matter? Um, godmother?" Zidi, who was immersed in the memory, was still a little confused.

"You child, what are you thinking?" Akiko asked worriedly.

Zidi blinked and said with a smile: "It's nothing. What does the godmother want from me?"

Ming Zi said, "It's not me looking for you, it's your father looking for you. I just came in to deliver some tea."

Zi Di secretly took a look at Ta Ya Xing Yang, and saw him sitting in front of the chessboard, his face was as usual, and he didn't see the slightest intention to find someone for something.

"Chess record." Seeing that the purple flute had come to his senses, Tayao Xingyang slowly spit out a word.

"Ah, sorry, I forgot." Zi Di got up and handed over the chess record.

Ming Zi looked at the two people who were thinking about the chessboard again, stepped back gently, and closed the door carefully.

After Taya Yukiyo got the chess record, he took a rough look and frowned.He tidied up the chess boards he had played before, picked a fight in the corner of the new game record, and laid them out bit by bit.

Zi Di looked at the chess shape she had already set up, and took a few black and white pieces to add and subtract for a while, but the movements of her hands slowed down more and more.

After being adopted, it seemed to be a matter of course for him to go back to Japan with Taya Yukihiro.But for a family like Taya to adopt a girl who has grown up and is still a foreigner, if you think about it casually, you will know that this is not an easy thing to do.

Although I don't know how Mr. Taya successfully adopted him, but seeing Ryo Taya's shocked expression when he saw him, he can more or less understand the difficulty.

However, I don't want to just accept this result in such a muddle-headed manner. Although I don't have much right to speak and choose, but... how should I put it, it's like being played by fate.

Although "Soul of Chess" itself is a world that cannot be explained clearly by science - otherwise Zuo Wei would not be a lonely soul for a thousand years, but why did I come to this world, and why did I come here?

When I first arrived at Taya’s house, I was only willing to stay in the house and make notes instead of going out. It’s not so much that I’m not familiar with this country, it’s better to say that I’m not familiar with this world, this time and space. Toya Ryo and Toya Yukiyo in [-].

It is precisely because of this that only Go can be said to be the only connection between myself and my past and present lives.

Such fetters belong only to oneself.

Zidi sometimes thinks:

When Zuo Wei reappeared in the present world, did he know that the god he was so grateful for let him return to the present world, was it for his unfulfilled wish, or for another person who needed his existence?

Even if he returns to the present world, what Zuo Wei pursues is only Go.

But at this time, does Go still belong to Zuowei?

Zidi smiled self-deprecatingly.

Almighty God, have you ever considered whether Zuo Wei will be lonely?

If there is no soul behind me who has been dedicated to Go for thousands of years, then who can witness my hard work?

Standing in front of the temple gate of Honmyoji, Shinto asked himself a silly question.

He's long gone, isn't he?

He has given me the fan, hasn't he?

He exists for me, doesn't he?

But if this is the case, if the answer to all these is yes, then I...

How should I respond to all this?

Isn't what I'm doing now defiled, defiled, defiled what Zuowei handed over to me...

Shinto slowly slid down the wall next to the temple gate.

He bent his legs, squatted against the wall, hugged his knees tightly with his hands, and buried his whole face in his arms.

Good failure, good, humiliation...

Sure enough, I still... can't.

The feeling of losing chess is really uncomfortable.

The phone in his trouser pocket kept vibrating, and Shinto, who was immersed in his emotions, didn't feel it at all.

He just felt a little cold inexplicably, so cold that he couldn't help shivering, and hugged himself even tighter.

Zuo Wei, I obviously don't want you to leave, but I still lost you.

It took me a long time to convince myself that you must have left smiling.

Even Zidi, Zidi told me that you exist for me.

But I still think I'm so useless, I can't even get the Honinbo you left behind.

How wonderful it would be if you met Taya instead of me, you would have no regrets, and neither will I, will not...

No, no!Absolutely not!

Zuowei is my teacher, how can I give it to Taya?

He already has such a powerful father as Teacher Taya, if I don't work hard, will you and Teacher Taya laugh at me?

And Taya, Taya, will he abandon me as an opponent?

No, no!I will not allow this to happen.

Taya is mine, not only as a rival, but also as a lover!

I will never let go, I will never lose him!

Taya, he, he...he!

Shinto stood up suddenly, feeling dizzy.He leaned against the wall and fumbled in his pockets hastily.

Cell phone, yes, call Taya!

Shindo managed to grab out the phone, but found that there were more than a dozen missed calls.

Just as I was about to call back, another call came in.

"Hello, Taya?"

"Shinto? You finally answered the phone. Where are you now? Where did you go? Do you know that everyone is worried about you?!" The anxious voice had long since lost its usual calmness, and Taya said disregarding her image Yelling at the phone in the street, his brows were full of anxiety.

"I, I'm outside." Shouted by Taya, Shinto forgot what he wanted to say, "I, I'm outside. I'm sorry."

"Then where are you now? Don't move, I'll go find you." Taya resisted the urge to curse, and used his remaining rationality to maintain the string that was about to break.

"I'm... outside the door." Before Shindo finished speaking, the screen of the phone went black.

"What?" After hearing the sudden silence in the middle, Taya moaned nervously several times.

Until the 'call ended' beep sounds.

Taya clenched the phone tightly, and finally couldn't help but swear.

Shindo, this idiot, is really messed up!

The author has something to say: Please sing along with me: It’s good to be lonely~

Pierce:

I have always felt that Japanese people rely on running when they are lost, looking for someone, or in a hurry, so why don't they call?

So Taya made a smart phone call, but unfortunately the phone ran out of battery...

Maybe that's why the accident didn't call?

On September 2017, 10, the second revision [K]
