The ten-year trace of the soul of chess

The five-day trip to Beijing came to an end in a blink of an eye.

Although the "motivation for this trip is not pure" and there are accompanying teachers to take care of it all the way, but after all, with the name of "special tutor" and so many older children, I feel a sense of responsibility in my heart.

Fortunately, after these five days, although there were many small situations, they were all passed safely.

Except... that little episode that happened on the last night in Beijing.

If so, that counts as an "interlude".

Just on the last night before the end of the trip to Beijing, after dinner and the closing ceremony of the camp in the banquet hall of the hotel, when other children were leaving one by one under the leadership of the accompanying teacher, a little girl named Xia Yoshida But sneaked around behind Guang and took his hand.

Feeling a sudden stagnation in his right hand, as soon as he turned around, he saw Yoshida Xia Zheng looking up at him.

The little girl in front of me is only impressive.

Not only was it impressive, but... it was also impressive.

Everything has to start from the afternoon of the third day in Beijing.

That day, after watching the Ahan Tongshan Cup Rapid Chess Open in the morning, the organizer arranged a Go exchange match for all the students at the Chinese Chess Academy in the afternoon.

The exchange game is a two-person team, and each side has 2 hours of chess playing time.

Coincidentally, when a group of students had a dispute, the light happened to pass by.

Xu Shi won the chess game, and during the review, he only heard the boy speak rudely to his opponent: "You girls are so stupid! Why can't you see such obvious mistakes!"

As soon as he heard this, he frowned, and immediately walked up to the boy in three steps at a time, without directly criticizing him, just saying: "Come and play a game of chess with the teacher."

Boys in their teens are very competitive, and they don't pay attention to Honinbo at all. They compare and compare, who is afraid of whom?

The result is predictable.

And because the light didn't hold back at all, the chess game reached the middle game, and it ended with the white chess being killed without leaving any pieces.

It wasn't until he saw the dragon in the center being slaughtered and the surroundings full of loopholes that the boy finally lowered his head as if he had just woken up from a dream. He suddenly felt that his self-esteem had been severely injured, and his eyes were a little bit red. Hold back the tears and stare at the light.

Guang is angry and funny, following the boy's hair and guiding him calmly, and at the end, he still doesn't forget to mention the arrogant little straight man: "When you grow up, you will understand, winning chess, but losing Got a girlfriend, what is there to be proud of?! Girls want to be coaxed! Didn’t the teachers in school teach you this common sense?”

The boy named "Uehara Kono" seemed to be intimidated, and was taken aback for a while. Although the boss was reluctant and under pressure, he finally apologized to the girl who was crying by him.

And the girl in the story is Yoshida Natsu.

It seems that from that day on, in the future, as long as there is light, Yoshida Xia will definitely follow closely.

As an "accompanying family member", although Liang saw it, he didn't say anything.

Children at this age gradually increase their self-awareness, and they always subconsciously want to make themselves look different.

As early as a few days ago, Guang discovered that when other children called him "Teacher Shindo", only the little girl in front of him insisted on calling him "Teacher Guang".

Teacher Guang...

It will neither be overly intimate like "Hikari", nor be as distant and rigid as "Sensei Shinto".

I just remember that after the siege that day, besides "thank you", Yoshida Xia said to herself with a blushing face, Teacher Guang, you are so kind.

Perhaps, it is precisely because of this sentence "you are so kind" that let Guang take care of her more unconsciously, even if she grabs her hand abruptly and even slightly offensively at this moment, the eyes that look at the little girl are not consciously Softened, let her pull him, then slowly squatted down, eyes level with her and said: "Huh? What's the matter?"

At first, Yoshida Xia took a bright look and refused to speak.

Hikaru tried to persuade her again: "Ms. Taya is not an outsider, so why don't you have something to say that is inconvenient for him to hear?"

The little girl blushed so nervously that she asked in a low voice after a while, "When I return to Japan, can I see Mr. Guang again?"

Guang immediately bent his eyes and smiled: "Of course I can!"

As if inspired, Yoshida Xia glanced cautiously, took a deep breath, and finally looked at Guang and said, "Then... Teacher Guang, can I marry you, Teacher, when I grow up?"

"Eh?!" Guang was startled, and subconsciously looked to the side, only to see that Liang was also taken aback.

Looking at Yoshida Xia again, I saw the little girl blushing, her hands kept stirring the skirt of the white skirt, but even though she was so nervous, she still tried her best to express herself: "Because, because Teacher Guang is so gentle!!"

Raised his head abruptly and blurted out, Yoshida Natsu's voice slowly decreased as if he had lost all courage: "Whether I miss my mother or when I am being bullied, Mr. Guang has always been with me and helped me. I taught that bastard Uehara a lesson! I, I..."

At the end, Yoshida Natsu lowered her eyes again as if choked up.

gentle?Have it?

It seemed...it was the first time that he was said to be "gentle", and Guang was taken aback again.

He looked softly at the shy little girl in front of him, and for a moment he didn't know how to respond to Yoshida Xia's words.

Maybe it's because I've been living with a super gentle person.

To be taken care of by such a gentle person, pampered, loved, and accompanied on the tip of my heart...

His heart seemed to melt, and he couldn't help looking at his lover beside him.

Perhaps, just because I have been treated so tenderly all this time, I unconsciously put away my former recklessness, and planted some seeds of "gentleness" in my bones.

A faint smile quietly appeared on the corner of Guang's lips.

"Teacher is very happy to be able to say that," still maintaining a half-squatting posture, Guang responded with an extremely serious expression, "Thank you for liking Teacher, but..." Looking sideways, his eyes were about to meet with the appearance , and quickly turned his face, "Teacher already has someone who wants to protect him for a lifetime. Everyone can only have one person who wants to protect very, very much in his life. With that person in the teacher's heart, he can't live anymore. There are others, so...sorry, the teacher can't promise you."

When he said this, Guang's expression was so sincere, and his voice was soft and full of apology, which actually made the little girl feel full of guilt.

She quickly shook her head vigorously, then turned around, blushing and ran away.

Seeing the back of the little girl running away quickly, Liang felt a little funny.

It's clearly just a child's talk, so why take it so seriously.

On the way back to the room, when he was talking about his thoughts to Guang, he saw that Guang shook his head slightly.

"That's not the case," Guang stood still and looked at Liang with the same serious and serious expression as before, "As long as it involves you, no matter who the other party is, how old they are, whether they are male or female, I must Treat with caution."

"Light……"

"What's more, don't I know you yet?" I don't know what I thought of, just talking, as if I couldn't hold back any longer, the face that was originally tense smiled a little bit, just Under Liang Zhizhi's gaze, he seemed to be provocative, poking Liang's heart with his index finger, "Say one thing and do another! What's the 'children's words' and 'why take it seriously', your heart is clear That~~~ is so narrow, and the temperament is~~~ so small, if I don't make it clear, who knows when you will silently write me down again? I won't take the blame for this!"

After speaking, while someone was still in a daze, he put his hands on the back of his head as a pillow, and walked towards the room loudly.

Watching the light go away all the way like this, Liang lightly pressed his right hand on the place that was poked by the light just now.

Chest, so warm.

In his mind, Fang Caiguang responded to Yoshida Xiashi's serious expression and straightforward words, like arrows with great lethality, piercing the softest part of his heart.

So deadly, so tender.

Back in the room that night.

Guang walked into the room first, and just as the door closed, he was dragged into his arms by someone from behind.

"No more jobs like this are allowed in the future." Liang kissed the back of Guang's neck, then hugged Guang's waist tightly, and put his right hand into the hem of Guang's clothes.

"Hey, you..." When warm fingertips touched his lower abdomen, Guang froze in Liang's arms. Just about to protest, he heard Liang say with aggrieved words, "These little aliens are too lethal. , and there is no way to take tough measures.”

"In the future, I will not allow you to lead the team out again.

"Not even once!"

Listening to the accusations from Mr. Taya jumping out sentence by sentence, Hikaru secretly laughed in his heart, completely forgetting the situation he was in now, and let out a very inappropriate low laugh.

"Okay, I got it. Just this time, I won't lead the team again, okay?" He turned around, put his hands on Liang's face, and kissed the corner of Liang's mouth in a persuasive way. His face was still a little ugly, so he turned to the other side and kissed again.

Unfortunately, it seems useless.

Liang didn't know what stimulated him, but he still held Guang, and stubbornly declared: "You are mine!" After speaking, as if feeling that the evidence was insufficient, he added, "You agreed to my marriage proposal!"

"Yes yes yes! Marriage proposal, marriage proposal, I agreed, that's right!"

Liang didn't say that the proposal was okay, but when he mentioned the proposal, his face became hot, and he almost couldn't control the serious expression he had just managed to get down.

That's right, he Shindo Hikaru agreed to the marriage proposal of professional Go player Ryo Toya.

On the night when the 62nd Honinbo Title Seventh Tournament ended——

That day, after finishing the chess game review with Mr. Kuwahara and eating his favorite ramen with Ryo, Hikari and Ryo drove home together.

On the way back to the apartment, beside him was his lover who had always been with him for a long time. In his heart was the tranquility and steadfastness precipitated after the fulfillment of a long-cherished wish. Sleepiness gradually struck, and he slowly closed his eyes unconsciously.

When he woke up from his doze, he subconsciously looked out the window, but he couldn't help but sit up a little.

— This is not their usual route home.

"We are going to..."

Liang only touched his cheek with his fingers, and said with a faint smile: "Today, let's take a short detour."

Not long after, they stopped at the entrance of a flower shop.

After turning off the ignition of Aqua, Liang asked Guang to wait in the car on the grounds that "just waking up and blowing the night wind is easy to catch cold", and he got out of the car and walked to the flower shop.

Watching Liang walk into the store, Guang sat alone in the car for a while, suddenly felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.

It's strange, but I just can't let myself wait for Liang in the car without doing anything.

He tried to pull the car door, but seeing that the car door was not locked, he was pleasantly surprised, got out of the car and chased into the store.

When he walked into the flower shop, Liang had already chosen the bouquet.

It is a bunch of blue-purple double-petaled flowers with yellow stamens and a pale yellow gold border around the edges of the petals.

Hearing the sound of footsteps behind him, Liang turned his head, saw that Guang still ran out disobediently, and before he had time to rebuke, the tip of his heart softened, his eyes filled with soft light, he stretched out his hand, and brought the light to his body with a smile beside.

Perhaps it was late at night, and it was rare that two boys came to buy flowers, and they bought violets. When packing the bouquet, the female shop assistant couldn't help but linger on their faces for a little longer.

They are two completely different temperaments.

One is as warm as the morning light, and the other is as restrained as the moonlight.

Yet they complement each other so well.

She wanted to say something more, but after sensing the unusual atmosphere between the two, she decided not to bother.

The purple bouquets have been carefully maintained, and the flowers are still very bright even in the evening.

After wrapping it in vintage kraft paper and briefly explaining the maintenance, the girl handed the bouquet to Liang.

Watching the two of them leave the flower shop, the girl suddenly felt a little impulsive.

She couldn't help chasing to the door of the store, and said nervously to the two of them, "I wish you happiness."

When Guang was still a little ignorant, Liang had already turned sideways first, and then smiled gently at the girl: "Thank you!"

Get back in the car.

Liang handed the bouquet to Guang's hands and asked him to keep it for him.

Light nodded, and carefully held the bouquet tightly.

While holding the bouquet, I counted it quietly, there were nine in total.

Just like the number of years he has known Shuo.

On the way back, Guang never asked Liang why he bought the flowers, nor did Liang explain anything to Guang, but there was already an ambiguity floating in the quiet carriage.

Breathing in the nose, the intoxication is also intoxicating.

I finally returned to the apartment I hadn't seen for a long time.

Guang took off his shoes and stepped into the living room. Just as he was about to turn on the chandelier directly above the living room, the warm yellow chandelier embedded in the keel was turned on first.

When Guang turned his head, he saw Liang standing in a hazy place.

He saw him slowly walking from behind him to in front of him.

He saw that he first looked down at the bouquet in his hand, and then raised his head to fix himself.

He said: "Because I don't want to wait for a minute and a second. I bought the flowers on the spur of the moment. I hope you don't mind." He said somewhat cautiously, "Just now I just asked you to keep it for me, now, can I formally ask you...to accept it?"

"..."

The heartbeat suddenly exceeded the speed.

The corners of Guang's lips, which were originally slightly raised, slowly pursed into a tense straight line as if he had a premonition of something.

He nodded heavily, and couldn't help but clenched the blue-purple bouquet in his hand, and then, seeing Liang in front of him, slowly knelt down on one knee.

He heard him call his full name solemnly: "Shinto Hikari."

After being together, Liang kept calling him "Guang". It had been a long time since he heard Liang call him by his full name.

At this moment, I don't know if it's the warm yellow light above my head that's causing trouble, or the leisurely fragrance in my hand, I just feel my head dizzy.

He looked at Ryo without blinking.

He heard the deafening heartbeat coming from his chest.

He kept turning his Adam's apple nervously, and almost had the urge to run away, but suddenly, he read the horror he had never seen before in his bright pupils, he was slightly taken aback, and then he felt something warm from his nose. It flowed out, and he wiped it subconsciously, staining his hands with bright red.

Light:"……"

what's the situation? !

Silently swearing in his heart, just about to raise his head, he heard Liang sternly shouted: "Guang, lower your head quickly!"

ha?Shouldn't nosebleeds be held up?

Although there was a black question mark on his forehead, but out of his unconditional trust in Liang for a long time, he obediently complied.

With such an interruption, the atmosphere is completely lost.

In order to see the light situation clearly, the warm yellow ceiling light was adjusted to a cool white chandelier.

Liang was scared out of his wits, and after placing Guang on the sofa, he quickly ran into the bathroom to fetch towels.

Guang sat on the sofa, grabbed a paper towel and was about to stuff it into his bleeding nostrils. Liang came out of the bathroom just to see this scene, and broke out in a cold sweat from fright. Press and sit on the sofa, and then, put a cold towel on the bare forehead.

The shoulders were fixed by Ryo, and his upper body could not move, but he still did not forget to protest: "Taya Ryo, are you deliberately against me?"

Liang had no intention of arguing with him, and while applying cold compresses for him with a livid face, he couldn't hide his concern and asked anxiously: "Has this happened before? Is there any discomfort in your body?"

"No, no, no!" Trying to remove the towel that Liang put on his forehead, Guang struggled to sit up, "Maybe I ate too many mangoes recently, and I just got a little angry."

Light deliberately said calmly.

He originally wanted to let Liang relax, but he didn't want to, after saying these words, Liang's eyes darkened again.

to finish...

Knowing that he had said something wrong again, Guang felt guilty for a while, pursed his lips slightly, gently pulled the bright sleeve with his right hand, and said almost flatteringly: "Liang, I'm really fine, don't worry, okay?" ?”

The bright eyes moved slightly, and then frowned and looked at the light carefully for a long time. Finally, as if finally letting go, he held back the right hand that was gently pulling the sleeve of the light, and explained softly: "When you have a nosebleed, you can't raise your head, because when you raise your head, you can't raise your head. , the blood in the nasal cavity will flow back into the throat due to improper posture, which will irritate the gastrointestinal mucosa and cause discomfort. Do not use paper towels and other items to block the nasal cavity, because these multi-fiber things are easy to leave fiber in the nasal cavity, The possibility of causing rebleeding."

Light:"……"

What kind of nonsense is this? !

It's not like he hasn't had nosebleeds since he was a child, so why hasn't he heard of these theories? !

The words of rebuttal were already on the verge of his mouth, but seeing that Liang was still in shock and his complexion hadn't improved much, Guang could only cough lightly, and brought the topic back with a blushing face: "I said, that... you just continued halfway through what you said just now." Don't continue? If you don't say it, there will be no next time!"

Liang was stunned for a moment.

Then I looked at Guang dumbfounded, and said in my heart, do I dare to have a "next time"?

Guang was impatient with his fussy husband. Seeing that he was still hesitating, and didn't know what was going on in his brain circuit that was comparable to the Mariana Trench, he straightened his back in a bravado, and gave an ultimatum for the last time. : "I'll count to three, not to mention expired and void! One, two, three..."

As soon as the word "three" made a "hissing" sound, Liang came back to his senses in an instant, no longer cared about kneeling on one knee, took out the velvet ring box in his trouser pocket, opened the lid, and gently held Guang's left hand, He put a platinum ring engraved with "Touya Hikaru" on the inner circle on the ring finger of Guang's left hand, and the size was just right.

"Guang, I want to spend every spring, summer, autumn and winter with you, and I want to watch every sunrise and sunset with you; I want to be able to say 'good morning' to you every day when I open my eyes, and I want to be able to say 'good morning' to you every day when I close my eyes." Kiss your forehead and say 'good night'. In the past few years, I have been to some places and seen some scenery, but there is only one country. After I have been there, I never want to leave."

Even though he had put the ring on Hikaru's finger, Ryo looked tense.

He swallowed lightly, then looked into Guang's eyes and continued: "Guang, are you willing to lock me in your heart, put on heavy chains, and never let go?"

To use such terrible words as "shackles" and "never release"...

Isn't this person usually good at talking?Why is the mouth so stupid when it comes to the critical moment?

He lowered his head and caressed the ring on his left ring finger.

This platinum ring looks so delicate, much more advanced than the two pair of rings I bought.

How much should this cost!I don't usually have the chance to wear...

Taya Ryo, you idiot!

He was still smirking a second before the light was clear, but at the moment when the platinum ring was put on the ring finger of his left hand, his expression suddenly became very strange.

His eye sockets were a little bit red, and there were bean-like crystals slowly accumulating.

His lips trembled slightly, and there was a small smear of blood on his nose that he accidentally rubbed just now.

The light at this time looked extremely embarrassed.

The slumped shoulders seemed to be trembling slightly.

After a long time, he pursed his lips tightly, and finally raised his head.

He watched Ryo warily as if he were a stranger.

Liang also nervously looked at the light.

They looked at each other, as if tonight was the first time seeing each other.

Then, I don't know where Guang's laughter point was poked, Guang suddenly burst into a smile, laughing directly on Liang's shoulder.

"Pfft hahahahaha..."

From stillness to movement, it only took less than three seconds.

Liang was so frightened that he quickly straightened Guang's shoulders, and looked at him with a worried face.

And what responded to this concern was to wrap his arms around his neck and kiss his lips affectionately.

Light said, "I do."

In this way, the marriage proposal scene, which was supposed to be very ceremonial, almost turned into a farce and horror.

But that is on July 19, Heisei 7.

On the night when Shinto Mitsuko won the 62nd Honinbo title.

in the apartment they share.

He became his Toyako.

He became his Shindo Ryo.

Regardless of who named who, their relationship undoubtedly took a step forward.

Sublimated from "lover" to "lover".

From "practicing" to love someone, to hand in hand in the future, using the rest of each other's lives to write together the "long love" that belongs only to the two of them.

At the entrance of the hotel room, the two were "stalemate" with each other.

Liang put his arms around Guang, and said again: "I'm very angry now."

Angry again?Recently, our little teacher seems to be very angry?

With a low laugh in his heart, Guang pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Well, so, so?"

But before the words were finished, our dignified Jinto Mitsumoto Honinbo little chess master was forced to come, to be precise, he was pushed against the wall.

"For a while, you stand, or I hold you, you can choose one."

"!!!" The body that had finally relaxed became tense again, "But, but I haven't taken a shower yet!"

Someone smiled lightly: "It's okay, I don't mind."

"But I mind!!" His face was burning red a little.Burn from the root of the neck all the way to the top of the head.

"Hmm..." He seemed to be thinking seriously, and then said very understandingly, "Then... we can be together."

He pushed someone's chest not too hard: "I, I, I, I haven't brought anything yet!"

"It's okay, I brought it."

Light:"……"

It's over, it seems to have screwed myself up again.

But when your breath is taken away by the person on your body, what else can you do if you just think about it?

He longed for him after all.

This night, time seems to have returned to the day when the eternal contract was made with each other.

They kissed passionately.

Above the head, the light and shadow seem to have life, dancing and playing with each other.

Panting and whispering overlapped, as if the boundary of time was blurred somewhere.

When he stepped into the clouds, he fell on his body with attachment, and he whispered his name over and over again in his ear.

"Light, my light..."

The author has something to say:

The flower language of violet: eternal love, the flower language of blue purple violet: I will always be loyal.
