[Go Soul Natsume's Book of Friends] Guang Xia

Soul of Chess Special Chapter [-]

In the lounge, Celebrity Taya was sitting by the window.I stood opposite him and stiffened unconsciously.Six years have passed, but I seem to be still the kid who can't even catch chess pieces, and I am overwhelmed by his majesty.

"I...I'm sorry." That's all I could say.

To this day, I still have no way to give a reasonable explanation to celebrities.

"I don't care why sai refuses to show up for so long," the celebrity stared at me, his voice became louder amidst the endless sound of rain, "I only know that since he conceded defeat and announced his retirement on the Internet four years ago At that time, I was waiting for today—just like Xiao Liang was waiting for you in the past."

My heart trembled, and a cloud of hot air surged up in my chest, forcing my throat to dry out.Taya Ryo, I used the name I chased throughout my boyhood.I finally stood side by side with him, and stood in front of his father.

I choose my words carefully.

Taya-sensei, I understand your thoughts better than anyone else.Because, I am also waiting for him!

only--

"Play chess with Zuowei, you don't need to come back." Overcoming my fear, I forced myself to look him in the eyes, trying to keep my tone steady, "Zuowei, he also wants to play chess with you. As long as your time There is no conflict on—”

"You often go to the club to play chess with Xiao Liang, don't you?" the celebrity asked.

I nodded suspiciously.

"How do you think about the game in the clubhouse? How do you think about the game on the field?"

I was instantly shocked, and my heart was bright.I remembered the chess game with Morishita-sensei that Taya mentioned three years ago.

"The mentality and momentum displayed by chess players on the field are very different. There is no doubt that the atmosphere of the field can promote a famous game, the difference is only in who the opponent is." The celebrity said, his voice became deep and distant, "That's why , There are more famous games born in Yuchengqi than in any era."

A few simple words seem to have the power of a thousand pounds.I said with shame: "I understand."

At the same moment, I couldn't help but feel relieved.I remember that in the past, I played chess on behalf of invited celebrities. At first, celebrities were only used as a pastime in their spare time.Zuowei's hurt look is still fresh in my memory.

But today, the celebrity is willing to come back and return to the professional chess world in order to play the best chess game with Zuo Wei.

"But your body—"

The celebrity knew it, and smiled faintly: "Xiao Liang sent you here?" At this moment, his intimidating majesty receded slightly, and the lines of his face softened.

"No, Taya just told us the news." I said, "I came to you myself."

The celebrity was a little surprised: "I thought you would come with Mr. Fujiwara."

"No, you... don't get me wrong," I quickly waved my hands, and I forgot all the honorifics in a panic, "I insisted on coming by myself, I don't want that guy to persuade you personally... I mean, Zuo Wei ...After all, the person he most wants to play against is..."

"You seem to have been protecting Mr. Fujiwara."

The celebrity's tone showed a little sharpness.

"Because that guy only knows how to play chess, and he doesn't understand anything." I was straightforward and honest, "He has been like this since before... Now that he is back, I am afraid that he will be hurt." Fu added, "That kind of mood, It's the same as Taya worried about your body."

The celebrity said: "I wouldn't say that Xiao Liang's worries are superfluous. The body is very important, but there are some things—" He paused, his eyes were like the deep currents of the calm sea, "It is even more important than life, and it is worth sacrificing my body, Fame and wealth are pursued throughout life.”

I was shocked and couldn't help but fall silent.

"In addition, I decided to come back because of Xiaoliang and you."

Unexpected sentence, I stared blankly at the celebrity.

"Now Xiaoliang and you are also qualified to be my opponents." The celebrity said calmly, but I clearly felt that the blood in my whole body seemed to be boiling, and even my skin was so hot that it hurt, "I also Looking forward to meeting Xiaoliang and you on the field!"

"Father!"

"teacher!"

The door was swung open, and two people stood at the door—Ogata Seiji and Taya Ryo.

Facing Kami Taya's anxious and inquiring eyes, I smiled wryly and shook my head.After many years, I still can't stop the decision of celebrities.

Taya turned pale with shock: "Father, do you really want to—"

The celebrity nodded firmly, with unquestionable strength in his eyes, "Xiao Liang, don't worry, I will always pay attention to my body."

Ogata kept looking out the window.

You Lizi stands outside the chess court.Zuo Wei was by her side, holding a crimson oil umbrella, to protect her from rain.Nase bowed to Zuowei and left.You Lizi looked at her back and ran forward.Two girls embrace each other in the rain.

Both Yuriko and Nase lost four times, and they played an extra game, and the winner became a professional chess player.

It is lucky to be friends from rivals, but what about friends to rivals?

"The result...how is it?"

When Zuo Wei and Yu Li Zi returned to the lounge, I stepped forward to meet them.Ogata also hurried over.

Zoe didn't answer.I looked at Yulizi in a little bewilderment.Yuli Zi stared at me blankly for a while, then, slowly and tremblingly, raised her palm to me——

I suddenly understood what she meant, yelled "Ah", and raised my hand to hit her!

"You won! You are a professional chess player! You have only learned chess for a year and a half—"

Zuowei smiled: "Hikari, you are happier than Yuriko herself!"

Ogata took a step forward and held Yuriko in his arms.

"Zuowei." I tugged at the sleeves of the people around me, "Ms. Taya still insists on making a comeback."

Zuo Wei's complexion changed slightly.He turned to the celebrity: "Xingyang——"

The celebrity seemed to know what Zuo Wei was going to say, and said: "When my health is not good, I will never force myself to play."

Zuo Wei stared at the celebrity, his dignified side face was like a shining white jade statue, he was not angry and majestic, just like an emperor.At that moment, I felt a certain pressure, which came from these two famous chess players who faced each other.The sense of oppression they released was evenly matched, they collided with each other, and I was forced to retreat beyond the two of them.Looking at Taya Ryo again, his eyes were also full of fear.

Zuo Wei smiled slightly, his calm posture was like going to an invitation that was four years late.

"Thank you, Xingyang."
