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

one time

The next day, when Natsume woke up, the quilt he had put on for Sato was back on him, and the corners were carefully tucked in.Teacher Cat is crooked on "Friends Book".I believe it also heard that voice last night.

Light Onion is still lethargic.Next to the pillow is a bamboo flute made by Zuo Wei himself.The melodious ancient music last night was like a dream. Natsume changed into his uniform and walked down the stairs. He saw Sawei and the Fujiwara couple kneeling respectfully on the bamboo mat. Three of the four porcelain bowls were empty, obviously they had used up their breakfast. .

News from all over Japan was still being broadcast on TV, and the Tianyuan competition between Hikari and Kurata was also mentioned incidentally.Natsume can always get the news the night before, because Zuowei will review with YURIKO on the other end of the Internet an hour after the end of the chess game.

"Did you tell YURIKO that you are sai?" Natsume asked him last night.

Zoe nodded.So Natsume was very surprised why the professional chess world was still so peaceful.At least, coverage of Light's chess match was as good as ever.

"Whether I am sai or not is not important to that child." Zuo Wei said briefly.

"Have you ever played against other chess players?" Natsume asked with concern.What he has been thinking about all the time, isn't it to let Zuo Wei return to the chess world?

"Not yet." Zuo Wei said softly, his eyelashes drooping, his eyes resting on Qian Cong who was sleeping on the couch, "Although someone invited me to play."

"Is it Shinto-kun?" Natsume asked immediately.

"No, it's Ogata's tenth dan. I declined." Zuo Wei said, "But I also promise that if there is a chance in the future, I will definitely play chess with him."

"Xu... Fang—" Natsume was taken aback, and muttered to himself, "Xu Fang...?"

Natsume remembered this surname with a distant yet familiar emotion.He thought of the constant sound of rain.Different from the warm golden light when he met the light, Natsume remembered the leaden sky in the small town, and those eyes that were hesitant to speak. "Pa-ta, pa-ta..." With the sound of splashing water from his hasty footsteps, he turned around, and the girl stood on tiptoe, using an umbrella to shield him from the cold sky.

Unlike Hikari Shinto, Natsume pushed her away.He didn't want anyone to see his tears.

"Why, you know Mr. Ogata?" Zuo Wei was surprised.

"No, she's a girl... She seems to be a former classmate." Natsume rubbed her forehead, "I don't remember her appearance clearly." But Natsume also remembered another person at the same time.Her eyes are strikingly similar to the girl in memory, that is Akira Fujisaki.

The look in Akira Fujisaki's eyes when he talked about Hikari was exactly the same as the "Ogata" in his memory.

Zuowei made no secret of his joy when he heard Natsume talk about Akira Fujisaki.As expected, Zuo Wei saw her when he was with Guang.Natsume wasn't surprised by this, but couldn't help but wonder what kind of feeling it would be if the person standing in front of him couldn't see him.

"I'll take you to school and meet Fujisaki-senpai." Natsume tentatively proposed this to Zuowei.

Zuo Wei smiled and agreed: "Well, I want to see her too."

┄…┄…┄…┄…┄*

Different from the perfection of Haze Middle School, the school's Go club was established hastily and crudely.The chess room seems to be just an ordinary classroom. Except for Akira Fujisaki himself who has more formal chess sets, the other chess boards are just a piece of paper, and the black and white chess pieces are made of irregular glass.

It's not that Doki and Tanuma have never seen Sakai attached to Natsume's body before, but the moment Sakai real person appeared, they couldn't restrain their surprise, or rather, amazing.Zuo Wei's face is indeed unforgettable, with purple hair and cherry lips, fair skin, soft eyebrows and eyes like willow leaves, laid out like a brocade of hunting clothes.And the moment he saw Akira Fujisaki, there was more tenderness and sentimentality in his eyes, as if he had walked out of a drifting Ukiyo-e.

"Fujisaki-senpai, this is Sakai Fujiwara." Receiving Mingming's blank stare, Natsume introduced, still suppressing the strange feeling, "Did Shinto-kun mention it to you? He is... Sai."

But Ming Ming's eyes remained blank: "Sai?... Guang never mentioned it."

"Cough, senior sister, Sai is a famous online chess god." Duogui reminded.

"But Hikari never mentioned it... I'm sorry, Mr. Fujiwara." Fujisaki was a little embarrassed, "I'm really rude."

"Sai is Shinto-kun's teacher." Tanuma said.

Mingming opened his eyes wide in disbelief: "What? I don't remember that there was—?!"

The obvious strangeness and Zuo Wei's gentleness formed a stark contrast.Natsume felt unreasonably sad inside.Zuo Wei smiled lightly: "Guang mentioned you to me."

"Yes?" Mingming's expression changed from unbelievable to joyful, revealing a trace of imperceptible nervousness, "Just mentioned me, really?"

"Of course. Mingming, you once accompanied Hikari to the Go classroom, invited him to participate in the festival of Haze Middle School, and helped him establish the Go club—" Zuo Wei explained the details of how Guang and Mingming got along.The voice is gentle and gentle, like a lotus blooming like snow in a lake.The autumn wind lingered around them, as if blowing from the distant past.

Natsume, Tanuma and Duogui were all fascinated.I saw Mingming showing a bright smile, as if he had let go of something: "So he remembers everything!"

"No one can forget." Zuo Wei smiled, "Obviously, let's play the next game."

"Huh, me?" Mingming hurriedly waved his hands, as if biting his tongue, "No, I, I'm so bad... far worse than light."

"It's okay, obviously."

Before Mingming agreed, Duogui had already pushed the chessboard and glass chess pieces in front of the two of them in a flattering manner.Zuo Wei raised his hand and picked up a piece, the skirt of his clothes flew like a cloud, Natsume captured the uncontrollable shock and extreme ecstasy on Zuo Wei's face at this moment.He stared at the chess piece in his hand for a long while, and in a moment, there were tears streaming down his face.

"Mr. Zuowei!" Dogui and Tanuma exclaimed at the same time.

Only then did Natsume remember in vain that this seemed to be the first time Zuowei had actually touched a chess piece.

After considering Mingming's chess strength, Zuo Wei made ten handicap on the chessboard.The two played chess like this.Multitrack and Tanuma watched the game seriously, but Natsume suddenly heard the wind, accompanied by a clear and stern complaint—"Natsume Reiko! Give me "Book of Friends"!!"

Before Natsume could react, he saw a huge monster approaching the classroom window, and Zuo was sitting by the window to fight!

- It's over! ! !

There was a loud crash, and the glass of the window was cracked.Glass shards poured down like rain, and Natsume had only time to push Akira Fujisaki away in panic.In the blink of an eye, a slender black figure stood in front of Zuo Wei, barely blocking the monster's blow with the umbrella handle in his hand.

Time seemed to stop.Natsume could only hear her heart beating.My own, as if there are others, intense and chaotic.

Standing precariously in front of Zuowei was Asagi.Ba————Accompanied by the sound of wood breaking, the copper umbrella broke in two!

Qian Cong stared blankly at Duan Shan, her already pale cheeks were now ashen. "Copper..." There was a sob in her voice.

From the moment the glass shattered, Doku and Tanuma vaguely guessed what happened.Doko pulled Fujisaki Akira away first, and Tanuma stayed behind. He groped in front of Zuowei like a blind man: "Asagi, is that you?"

Natsume knew that the monster was looking for him, so he suddenly raised his hand and threw a cup at the monster.Sure enough, the hysterical monster noticed Natsume, let Asagi and Sakai go, and turned towards Natsume.Natsume turned around to flee, when a casual female voice suddenly sounded, becoming more lazy amidst the monster's roar, as if narrating faintly: "Things that are not human return to dust."

There was a flash of lightning in front of my eyes, blood splashed on broken glass, but it returned to calm in an instant.The dazzling light spots were blown away by the wind, and Natsume saw Mayu Kawasoe, holding Toranojiro's chessboard, standing behind the monster with a blank expression.And that monster has long since disappeared.

"You...killed it?" Natsume was stunned, and at the same time it was unbearable, adding merciless killing intent to Chuan, and why this familiar and unbearable scene was shown before Saori Fujiwara.

"If you don't kill it, you are the one who will die." Chuan Tian said lightly, "Didn't you hear the resentment toward Natsume Reiko in its voice?"

"It just wants to return the name—!" Natsume could only say this, and his voice quickly weakened.This is not the first time he has had an argument with the Demon Eliminator.Now in front of Zuo Wei, he didn't want to say more.

Zuo Wei looked at Chuan Tim fixedly: "Xiangzi?!"

Kawasoe turned sharply to Sakui.The look was so unbelievable that Natsume thought for a moment that she was going to do something to Zuowei, but she just let out a sad laugh: "I can't write a book with yin and yang like "The Tale of Genji"."

But Zuo Wei couldn't get back to his senses: "How can there be such similar people in the world?"

"There are still similarities between people, not to mention that a thousand years have passed." Kawasato said softly, "I just happened to know Natsume in Tokyo."

Natsume didn't know what to say, and saw the chessboard in Chuan Tian's arms dripping with blood, his heart and lungs seemed to be pinched by a giant hand, and he couldn't breathe.Zuo Wei sighed: "That's right." Then he turned to Qian Cong who was holding two broken umbrellas in front of him, his expression was terrified, but more relieved, "Qian Cong, are you okay?... You finally woke up."

Qian Cong slowly raised her head, her pretty side face looked like a white lotus in the sunlight.

Her voice was like a dream: "Yes, I finally woke up...Mr. Zuo Wei, I came to say goodbye to you."
