[Soul of Chess] Shugui

On a rare sunny day after the New Year, a group of people floated in the sky in a plane.

Looking from a distance through the window, large groups of translucent clouds are crowded together, not only white, but also a little pink, a little yellow, a little blue...

The wings of the plane broke through the clouds, breaking up the gathered clouds, leaving a series of snake-shaped traces.

Shinto sat quietly by the window, leaning his head on the glass, staring at the strings of white marks that had been scratched.

The game of chess played not long ago is vivid in my mind, the silent questioning, the stern aura, and the strong strength make myself powerless to parry.

It was obviously the most skilled and confident thing, but it was severely knocked down to the ground.

Although this ending has long been guessed, but...

Two-choice multiple-choice questions, no, no!

Not reconciled!

Taya looked over Zidi who was sitting in the middle, and stared at Shinto unabashedly.Shinto was extremely stingy, and he never looked at Taya after getting on the plane.

A few days after the "Rising Sun Cup" team training camp, Shinto and Taya moved out of the shared house and spent a year in their respective homes.

And from moving home until today, the two of them haven't been able to meet each other in private.

No matter in the chess academy or the Go club, Toya Ryo and Shinto Hikaru are like two magnets with the same magnetic poles on their backs, they are repelled from a distance, and they can't get together no matter what.

It was not until the meeting at the airport today that Taya followed Fujimi for the first time after the New Year.

But after meeting this side, the sensitive Taya suddenly felt that something unexpected had happened.

The previous miss may not be an accident.

He Gu and Yi Jiao sat quietly in the row behind the three of them.

Oh, by the way, there is a little Shoji sitting next to Yijiao.

Shoji Nidan said that he is very nervous now, and always has an inexplicable fear, feeling that he should not be sitting here.

Just like a 1.5 kilowatt light bulb, it should not appear under the hazy night sky with a faint moonlight.

The moonlight is enough, why do we need an electric lamp with an explosive wattage?

She Qingchun glanced at the two people sitting in front through the gap between the chairs, and a white headphone cable was looming.

She Qingchun shook his head, feeling a bit demonic.

Why do you keep staring at other people's headphone cables?

It is not surprising that two people who have a good relationship listen to music with a pair of headphones.Those two have been good friends since they were college students, and I heard that they still live in a rented house together.

People are happy to use the same pair of headphones, so what's the point?

Ochi gave Sha a puzzled look, not understanding why he was shaking his head for no reason.

But what is the identity of that girl?

Why did you live in the home of a former celebrity in Taya?

And in what capacity did they fly to Beijing with this group of people?

There are only three rows in front and back, and people number seven and eight have countless thoughts.

Everyone has their own thoughts, but they all only think silently in their hearts, and some thoughts are even placed in the deepest part, which is not for outsiders to understand.

"Ladies and Gentlemen: Our plane is turbulent due to unstable turbulence. Please..."

The plane visibly jolted a few times, and the radio started broadcasting just in time.

Zidi clutched her chest and took several deep breaths.

Although after such a long period of recuperation, the physical condition has been greatly improved, but it is still not as good as a young man who is physically and mentally healthy... Alas, if the operation is not too risky, and there is no suitable heart and enough money, I really want to Throw out this lump of meat that strikes at every turn.

Zi Di simply closed her eyes, adjusted her breathing, and it might feel better after a nap.

It's better to be young, have a healthy body, have a fearless aura, and have a priceless capital.

The dazed Zidi still couldn't help sighing from the bottom of her heart, it's nice to be young.

Do what you want, try bravely, keep challenging, even if you fail, you can pack your bags and get ready to go.

This boy Shindo probably relied on his youth to do such a willful and bold thing.

It's a pity that sometimes, youth is not a panacea.

Without the matching strength and confidence from the inside out, no matter how you say it, it's just a paper tiger.

The plane shuttled between the blue sky and white clouds, breaking up cloud after cloud.

In the originally calm sky, the whole clouds spread out like fish scales, and ripples appeared like the surface of a lake blown by a breeze.

In the Nihon Kiin Hall, everyone was gathering around looking at a list on the table.

Although the pre-publicity of the "Rising Sun Cup" has started long ago, everyone in the publishing department did not get the complete entry list of the Chinese and Korean teams until today.

Everyone gathered in a group, and they were all studying the key to the performance of the Japanese team this time.

"You said, the Rising Sun Cup this time, the Japanese side..." A slightly fat reporter frowned.

"It's hard to say. Both China and South Korea have produced some unfamiliar chess players." Another reporter continued.

"I really don't know what the board members of the Chess Academy are thinking. The complete list is only released now. Although the main team has been announced before, the friendly match is also very important. I'm in such a hurry now, how can I have time to publicize it? Huh?" The little reporter who just finished her internship complained.

"I heard that the accompanying reporters knew the news a long time ago. We still have several copies of these chess players' information in our editorial department." Suzumiya, the only female reporter in the editorial department of the Chess Academy, said calmly.

"Oh, where is it, Suzumiya, why didn't you say it earlier."

"Yes, yes, Suzumiya, show it to us."

After hearing what the new colleague said, everyone was in a hurry.Suzumiya Kiko nodded, turned around and went to look for information.

Let's take a look at the list that everyone has forgotten. In fact, it's just a few names.But if you look at it together with the information from the survey, it will look a little weird.

Just looking at the rosters of the main teams of China and South Korea, there are many intriguing places.

The contestants in the Chinese team competition are Zhao Shi's [-]th dan, Leping's [-]th dan, and Luo Chen's [-]nd dan.

Zhao Shi can be said to be the leader of the new generation of Chinese Chess Academy, and also a familiar face and old friend in the Japanese Go world.Zhao Shi, who is only 16 years old, has been learning Go since he was a child in Beijing, the capital of China. He has participated in many competitions across the country and won many honors.Zhao Shi has a lot of experience in battles, and he is also used to big scenes like international competitions, so his chess style is calm and atmospheric.Although young, his strength should not be underestimated.

Leping [-]th Duan is the excellent chess player who looks very similar to Hegu Yigao. He came to Beijing Chess Academy to study Go after various local selections.Although he once became a professional chess player at a young age and faced the danger of being sent back to his hometown, in the end, with his unremitting efforts and the help of his friends, Leping chess players grew rapidly and became an indispensable and powerful chess player in the Chinese Chess Academy .

There is also Luo Chen second-dan, according to the data, is a female chess player.Beyond that, there is no more information.Even Luo Chen's chess game records, only found one or two incomplete copies.

"This Luo Chen is..." Everyone frowned after reading the materials from China.

Although it is said that this information was compiled by the reporters a long time ago, anyone with a discerning eye can tell that this information was rushed out in a hurry.

Zhao Shi and Le Ping, two young chess players, have been in the limelight in recent years. With a little effort, they can find more and more detailed information, but there are only a few words, which is really pitiful.

And that Luo Chen female chess player who came out of nowhere was so vague that she was dismissed with just one sentence.

However, if she is really unknown, will the Chinese Chess Academy place her in such an important international league?

Could it be that the Chinese Chess Academy is "pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger"?

Let’s look at the leader of the Chinese team again. It’s another name I haven’t heard much. I can only know that it’s a female chess player named Zidi, and she doesn’t even have a rank. Maybe it’s some kind of nepotism.Several senior reporters looked at each other and smiled.

And this time the chess players sent by South Korea are even more suspicious.The leader of the team is Gao Yongxia chess player, everyone guessed it, after all, he has reached the sixth dan, and it is impossible for him to participate.As for the participating chess players, they are really intriguing.

Hong Xiuying's [-]th dan, a rising star of young Korean chess players.Although compared to Gao Yongxia, a legendary chess player, Hong Xiuying's competition results and overall level are still very poor, but for Korean Go, which has been declining in recent years, Hong Xiuying is still a young and promising player.

Kim Jae-hwan's third dan is a rookie in the Korean Chess Academy in the past year.After entering the road of professional chess players, Kim Jae-hwan chess players have been winning all the way, and even Hong Xiuying has been defeated by gold chess players many times.If it weren't for the fact that there is no intersection between low-level chess players and high-level chess players, the game between Jin and Gao will definitely attract a lot of crowds.

And the last one, Park Eun-hye, [-]nd dan, is a very low-key professional chess player, who rarely participates in other competitions except for the promotion match.There is a gossip that Park Eun-hye may be the daughter of the chairman of the board of directors of a certain Korean group. Go is just a hobby and does not need to be taken seriously as a profession, so it seems particularly low-key.Why did Park Erduan, who has always been low-key, participate in this international league?The deep meaning of this is unknown.

Regardless of the list of friendly matches, just this list of contestants plus the information collected is enough to make all the reporters and editors present look at each other, not knowing how to react.

"What are a group of people doing here? Why don't you hurry up and work after you get the list? Go fill in the incomplete information, and write the manuscript! Are you free now?!"

When the editor-in-chief came back after delivering the machine, he saw that the entire publishing department was quiet, surrounded by a group of people, looking stupid.

You don't even need to think about it, you know what they are doing.

I think that when the editor-in-chief himself saw this list for the first time, he was roughly in the same state.

But no matter how strange or puzzled you are, you have to do your work.

The crowd dispersed immediately, and the editorial department became lively again.

At Beijing Capital International Airport, a group of people piled up at the exit, waiting to be picked up.

"Zhao Shi, Shitou, Xiaoshizi, do you think Zidi will really come back? Isn't she not allowed to take a plane?" The young man in a neat suit looked excited, curious, puzzled, happy... Anyway, all kinds of expressions are different. Asked, there was a jade-faced young man with fluffy curly hair standing beside him.

Young master Yumian, ahem, that is Zhao Shi, a little helpless and confused, hesitated for a long time before saying: "Actually, I don't know, I only heard Mr. Lu Li tell me about the team leader in the morning. Before, I always thought it belonged to Mr. Lu Li."

"Then, can we see Zidi today?" Le Ping was not discouraged by Zhao Shi's words, but still asked with a little excitement.

Zhao Shi frowned uncertainly, then loosened it again: "It should be possible."

"Oh, idiot." A girl with short hair who looked obedient and had a round apple face actually sneered.

"Hey, the surname Luo, I have nothing to do with you. If you want to stay here, please be quiet." Le Ping was indignant.

The girl didn't even look at Le Ping who was baring her teeth at her, and stepped aside.

"Hey, did you hear that! Don't act like someone owes you money, what are you dragging!" Le Ping, who was neglected, was a little unscrupulous.

Zhao Shi supported his forehead, and hurriedly stepped forward to smoothen Le Ping's hair.

I don't know how many times it is, since Luo Chen came to the chess academy, Le Ping has a good temper.

Didn't he just lose the first game of chess? Didn't he win several games later on? As for being so obsessed with it?If Zidi really came later, seeing Le Ping like this, he would have to laugh at him to death.

But when it came to the purple flute, Zhao Shi secretly glanced at Luo Chen, and then retracted his eyes without a trace.

The author has something to say: Shindo: Am I unable to get rid of the melancholy boy's character design?

Taya: I feel sensitive, I want to add more drama.

Zidi: Why am I always nagging...

She: Do I know too much QAQ

A certain K: What do you know~ Why don’t I know?
