[Soul of Chess] What if

After throwing away the script book, although he was a little overwhelmed at first, it didn't take long for Tsutsui to return to his usual rehearsal state.Now he is doing the final confirmation work before the performance.

After confirming that the people responsible for the scenery, props, sound effects, and lighting were in place, Tsutsui turned to Hikaru and the others.

He silently watched several people present, and after a long time, he showed a relieved smile: "It's finally here... I have no regrets to be able to rehearse this stage play with everyone. So, no matter what the result is, It's not important anymore."

"Everyone, do your best! :)"

As soon as Tsutsui's words fell, I don't know who initiated it, and several people naturally hugged each other's shoulders and formed a circle.

"Come on! Come on! Come on!" They cheered for each other and for themselves.

When the previous show was still in full swing, Ah Guang and the others were already waiting on both sides of the stage.

On the right side of the stage, Tsutsui and Kaga are quietly waiting for the performance to start.

Compared with Kaga's completely relaxed appearance, Tsutsui seemed a little restrained, besides, he secretly looked at the rebellious figure beside him from the corner of his eye from time to time.

After thinking about it for a long time, Tsutsui finally mustered up the courage to speak: "Kaga."

"Huh?" Hearing Tsutsui's soft call, Kaga withdrew his gaze from the stage.

"Thank you." Tsutsui said with a sincere tone.

Hearing Tsutsui thanked him so solemnly, Kaga looked a little astonished.After suppressing the chaotic thoughts in his heart, he looked at Tsutsui in puzzlement, and asked softly, "Thank you for what?"

"Eh?"

Unexpectedly, Kaga would ask such a question, Tsutsui couldn't help being stunned.He answered Kaga's question while thinking back: "There are many, many things that I need to thank you Kaga... such as the script, such as the decision to unite the two clubs to perform a stage play, such as finding someone to help complete the background music , props and other post-work, such as asking friends from other clubs to guide the performance..."

"And all of this would be impossible for me alone... But, I want to say more than that."

"That day, you should have heard what I said to Shindo and the others. Although it makes me feel a little uncomfortable to see my cowardly side by people I know..." Speaking of this, Tsutsui No. Looking at the person opposite me for three years so seriously, "Kaga, thank you for everything you have done for me. Thank you very much..."

After being stunned for a few seconds, Kaga gently rubbed the tip of his nose with the back of his hand and said calmly, "Ah, let's just say that."

"Huh?" Tsutsui blinked in confusion.

"In this case, you owe me a favor." Kaga added.

Realizing that he might be being sentimental, Tsutsui's old face became hot.He was thankful that the light in the place where he was now was relatively dim, and the other party should not be able to see anything unusual, and then asked quickly: "Wait! Isn't that so?"

"Idiot! I told you, I want to play Oda Nobunaga." Kaga explained impatiently.

Tsutsui asked uncertainly as if muttering to himself: "Then... are you really just...?"

Before he finished speaking, he heard Kaga's slightly smiling voice: "However, I have nothing to lose by giving you a favor~"

"What did you say?!" Tsutsui was furious all of a sudden.

"Hahaha!" Kaga couldn't help laughing.Sensing that the music on the stage had slowed down, his attitude became a little more serious.

"Get ready, Tsutsui," he reminded.

As the music gradually stopped, Ah Guang's little heart beat more and more violently.

Just when he was so nervous, Zuo Wei on the side was still sighing in a slightly raised tone: "It's finally about to start, finally~≥﹏≤"

"I said... Zuo Wei, please don't speak in this tone...Q_Q" Ah Guang wanted to cry but had no tears.

"For the next program, please enjoy the stage play "Burning Honnoji Temple" co-starred by Go Club and Shogi Club."

Listening to the voice coming from the microphone, Ah Guang understood that their performance was about to start, so he immediately put away his noisy gesture with Zuo Wei.

He took a deep breath, and then looked at Zuo Wei beside him: "I'm going up. Zuo Wei, you must help me!"

"Okay. Let's go~*^__^*" Zuowei responded with a slight smile.

"Okay." Ah Guang nodded heavily, and then took a step forward.

"On June [-], [-], Honnoji Temple. Oda Nobunaga was tired of drinking and singing, so he called two famous Go players and asked them to play chess."

Accompanied by the eloquent narration of the narration, the curtain of the stage was slowly opened.

"Hey, isn't that Kaga?!" After seeing the figure in the center of the stage clearly, an exclamation came from the audience below.

Although the person who made the sound had tried his best to lower his volume, it still seemed a bit abrupt in this quiet venue.

After hearing that the legendary Kaga was among the performers, the surrounding people also whispered:

"Could this be the show of the Shogi club?" A person asked with some doubts.

Regarding this question, another person quickly denied it: "No, the host just said clearly that this is a co-starring of Shogi Club and Go Club."

"Huh—?!" For this answer, the person who asked the question was extremely surprised.

The person who had been listening to their conversation also joined their discussion: "Go club? By the way, is there a Go club in our school?"

"There should be..." The person who was still swearing just now replied with a little hesitation.

After recovering from the surprise, someone couldn't help but sigh: "Kaga would agree to act in a stage play with Go Club? With his character, it's completely unimaginable..."

"Yes, yes!" The others agreed with sympathy.

"The Go club has such a big backer as Kaga, what is the background of the president of the Go club?" A gossiping voice sounded.

Hearing this sentence, the conversation paused strangely for a few seconds, and then everyone shook their heads: "I don't know..."

"It's over, it's over, we tore up the poster of the Go club on the bulletin board before, so we shouldn't be Kaga..." Realizing that the relationship between Kaga and the president of the Go club should be unusual, a member of the basketball club was nervous He kept asking his companions beside him.

"Probably not, it's been so long..." The companion responded without confidence, before he finished speaking, he pointed at the stage with a face like he saw a ghost, "Ga... Kaga, look over here !"

When the others heard the words and raised their heads, they realized that Kaga was indeed looking this way!

As a result, everyone in the audience fell silent... ●﹏●

This time the performance was quite successful.

Although there was a small episode in the audience at the beginning, it didn't take long for the audience to be gradually attracted by the plot.

The protagonists have a good grasp of tone, pauses, tone changes, and emotions. The movements of the performance are also very real and vivid, especially in the fighting part of the second half. There was bursts of applause and exclamation from the audience (after all, they went to the Kendo Department to get the scriptures~∩__∩).

In addition, the lighting and sound effects are also very well connected, so the whole stage play appears compact and coherent.

At the end of the performance, from the time Ah Guang and the others stepped onto the stage to salute, to the end when all the performers took the stage and bowed to everyone collectively, there was constant applause from the audience.

Feeling everyone's recognition of this stage play, not only Tsutsui, but everyone on stage had slightly moist eye sockets.

It wasn't until after six o'clock that the school festival came to an end, and the campus, which had been bustling all day, gradually returned to its former tranquility.

Although he was exhausted and exhausted this day, after leaving the school, Aguang still went to the Internet cafe by detour.

because--

The second stage of the Nongshim Cup is about to begin.

The full name of the Nongshim Cup is "Nongshim Shinramen Cup", which is a new competition funded by South Korea's Nongshim Shinramen Group Company and sponsored by Korea Chess Academy.Since the game adopts the "Jinro Cup" method that has been suspended for several years, this event can also be called the new Three Kingdoms Go Challenge Competition.

To put it simply, the competition method of the Nongshim Cup is that China, Japan and South Korea each send five players to form their own teams. After the first game draws lots to determine the two sides on the field, the winner of each game is the defender, and the other two teams Chess players can be sent in turn to challenge until all the players from the other two teams are defeated.The team of the last player remaining in the ring is the champion of this tournament.

For this competition, the three countries all attached great importance to it, and almost all of them sent their strongest chess players to play.

The five players of the Chinese team participating this time are: Wang Xing [-]th dan, Hua Songli [-]th dan, Wang Lei [-]th dan, Yang Hai [-]th dan and Lu Li [-]th dan.The five players in the Japanese team are: Sai, Seiji Ogata [-]th dan, Kamiedsu Hiroshi [-]th dan, Norio Kudo [-]th dan and Toshi Matsunaga [-]th dan.The five South Korean players are: Seo Chang-won [-]th dan, Lee Chang-ho [-]th dan, Liu Changhyuk [-]th dan, Kim Young [-]rd and [-]th dan, Moo Jin-seok [-]th dan.

The first stage of this competition was held in the studio on the ninth floor of Shanghai TV Station from the 15th to the 21st of last month, and a total of four games were played.

In the first game (December 12), the Chinese team had a bye, and Mu Zhenshuo of the South Korean team faced Toshiyuki Matsunaga of Japan, and Mu Zhenshuo won.

In the second round (December 12th), the Chinese team challenged Mu Zhen to no avail. In order to win more confidently, the 17-year-old Japanese veteran Norio Kudo played in the third round (December 12th).As expected, Norio Kudo defeated Mu Zhenshuo.

In the fourth game (December 12), the Chinese team sent Yang Hai to challenge Norio Kudo.At the beginning of the chess game, the two sides refused to give in to each other, and the situation was indistinguishable. However, at the 20th move, Kudo made a wrong move, and then made several problematic moves one after another. Yang Hai did not miss the opportunity. After deducting the six-and-a-half-mesh sticker, Hei won the three-and-a-half eye, which means that Yang Hai's challenge was successful.

Therefore, at the end of the first stage, Yang Hai of the Chinese team took the stage.

The second stage of the Nongshim Cup will be held from the 17th to the 23rd of this month.At this stage, there are still four games. In the first game, Yang Hai will face South Korea's Jin Rong [-]rd and [-]th dan.

The author has something to say:

Stay up all night again...

Ah Guang should be in danger again.

In other words, should Aguang go to Taya's house to escape the crisis?
