[Comprehensive] Save the male god

The next day.

After three months, the special examination for female chess players in Heisei 11 (99) will finally end today.

Outside the chess academy, Hitoshi Kuwahara walked up the steps with his hands behind his back, followed by his disciples Oda Masaaki and Morishitaro.

Seeing the instruction column of the female chess player meeting place under the steps of the Chess Academy, Hitomi Kuwahara remembered that he had been persuading his young apprentices to participate in the professional stage match and enter the professional circle every day since two years ago, and today he finally took the first step !

Think about when he asked Aoi to take the exam more than two years ago, Aoi said that she would finish her studies first. At first they thought she was joking.Because she would come to him to learn chess every day after class, even on weekends and various holidays. In her spare time, she held chess records in her hands. Where did she find the time to read and study, but in the end she really skipped two levels a year? study.

As soon as she got the university notice this year, he forced her to come here, otherwise he didn't know how long she would have to delay. Although the age limit for female chess players is looser than that for men, he still hopes that she can be at the best age. success.After looking forward to it for more than two years, he wanted to give flowers to his disciples anyway, so Ren Kuangyuan took over the job of teaching books.The Honinbo qualifiers ended last week, and Oda Masaaki and Morishitaro were both available, so they came together.

As soon as he walked to the gate of the chess academy, he saw the white suit walking in front, and Kuwahara Jin smiled immediately.

"Kid Ogata!"

Hearing this, Ogata Seiji, who was about to go to the chess room to find someone to play chess, stopped, and when he saw Kuwahara Hitoshi and the two people beside him, he showed a decent smile.

"Ms. Kuwahara. Oda-kun, Morishita-kun."

Kuang Yuanren asked with a smile "hehe", "Why did you come to the chess academy today? Did you also come to watch chess?"

"Watching chess?" Seiji Ogata looked puzzled, and Hitoshi Kuwahara kindly pointed to the eye-catching sign behind him.

"The last game of female chess players..." Ogata Seiji suddenly realized, no wonder these three people came at the same time.In this way, the disciples of the old fox should have good grades.That's right, if Honinbo's disciple can't even pass the entry competition, Honinbo won't let her out to shame her.

Kuwahara Ren thought that it would be better to hit the sun than to choose the day, so he simply let the brat's jaw drop today, so he invited, "Would you like to go over and have a look together? The female chess players in this issue are all pretty good!" It's just a pity They were all suppressed by Aoi.

To be honest, Ogata Seiji doesn't think much of the chess strength of female chess players. Now the highest level of female chess players in China is professional seventh-dan.I suddenly thought of the little boy I saw in the children's Go competition a while ago, he seemed to have good potential.So Ogata Seiji shook his head, "I still have something to do, so I won't go there."

"You'll regret it if you don't go!" Kuwahara Jin didn't force it, if he didn't make it today, there would still be the first league anyway.

regret?Ogata Seiji raised his eyebrows, and then saw that Morishitaro felt guilty, and Oda Masaaki followed Kuwahara Jin away with a half-smile on his face.

As for the venue for female chess players, the last match was in progress, and Yuan Yuan Kuang Yuanren saw the concentration of his disciples, because when they were playing chess, except for the referee, non-players were not allowed to disturb them, so the three of them stood in line Waiting outside.

Not long after, Aoi's opponent fell into the long test. Aoi moved her sore neck slightly, but when she looked up, she saw the teacher and two senior brothers standing at the door, and immediately smiled at them, but the next second , her smile froze, and she looked in surprise at the man who came out from behind her brother Oda.

Several people also noticed her stupefied appearance, and they also turned their heads, and immediately put someone's unbelievable, chapped elegant mask into their eyes.

Oh hehe, Kuwahara Jin grinned silently like an old urchin.Masaaki Oda also laughed secretly, finally he was able to yell at him openly, he still hadn't forgotten how he froze in front of him when he won the Chunlan Cup last time!Couldn't be happier!

It is said that after Ogata Seiji watched them enter the women's chess player venue, he originally wanted to go to the second floor to find someone to play chess. When passing by the bulletin board on the front wall, he accidentally glanced at the A4 printed record.

Immediately, he was attracted by the record of all victories in the white circle at the top. Sure enough, he took a closer look at the column of "Master", and there were six words "Kuwahara Ren Honinbo" written on it.

"Well, it's no wonder..." With that old fox's character, he must have just wanted to show off by asking him to watch chess!childish!

Seiji Ogata's lens flickered, wanting to see the girl's name so that he would not be rude when meeting her in the future, so his gaze moved to the left and stopped at the front of a white circle.

When he saw the three characters clearly, Ogata Seiji thought he had read it wrong, so he widened his eyes and moved closer. The word "Koi Inoue" clearly came into view. He touched the name, and it was still the familiar one. Three words, Ogata Seiji muttered in confusion, "Same name and surname?"

Thinking of Kuwahara Jin's invitation just now, Morishitarou's guilty conscience, and Oda Masaru's half-smile...Ogata Seiji suddenly got up, and walked straight to the female chess player venue.

Pushing open the door, I saw Hitomi Kuwahara standing outside the line with his hands behind his back smiling, and Morishitaro waving vigorously towards a certain direction in the field.

Following Morishitarou's line of sight, he was blocked by Masao Oda directly in front of him. Seiji Ogata took a step to the side, and immediately looked at the girl who was looking in this direction with a smile on her face.Immediately, the girl also saw him, and the eyes of the two met in the air, and then both of them froze.

But soon, Aoi reacted first, withdrew her gaze and continued playing chess.But Ogata Seiji still failed to recover from the equation of Aoi = disciple of old fox Kuwahara = junior sister of Oda Masaaki and Morishitaro = learning chess three years ago = not low chess ability.

Until Oda Masaaki asked him with a gloating smile, "Xiaokui should be finished downloading soon, and introduce you to each other later?"

Ignoring his intentional provocation, Ogata Seiji narrowed his peachy eyes, "So last time you were in Neptune, you also went to see Aoi?"

Masaaki Oda pursed his lips and smiled, "Yeah, it's rare for Xiaokui to invite us to play. Xiaokui's parents are gone, so of course we seniors have to take good care of her."

Does that mean he didn't take good care of Aoi?

Ogata Seiji's entire face turned black, looking at Aoi who was playing chess seriously in the arena, the cold air on his body rushed out desperately.

Seeing him like this, Kuang Yuanren came over, "At first I told Xiaokui not to tell you that she was learning chess from me. At that time, I thought she would join the chess game soon, but I didn't know it took three years. But," Hua Feng When he turned around, Kuang Yuanren's majestic momentum was all on top of him, "Yikui's personality, although she didn't take the initiative to tell you, she wouldn't deliberately hide it from you, how did you ignore her and didn't find out for so long? "

Speaking of this, not only Oda Masahiro, but also Morishitaro, who had been guilty just now, frowned and glared at him. Although Aoi had been speaking for him in front of them, they were still very dissatisfied with his guardian!

Ogata Seiji was taken aback by the slightly reprimanded words, ignored?Ogata Seiji was taken aback for a moment, then smiled wryly.Maybe he did ignore Aoi in the first year of her life, but after that... he found his feelings, and was afraid that he would hurt her if he got deeper and deeper, so he kept trying to keep a distance from her. Until a while ago, he Realizing that even if he avoided like that, his feelings for her did not decrease, but gradually deepened, and he couldn't imagine how she would bring another man to him in the future, so he began to let his feelings go, and made up his mind to have her Get her heart without knowing it.

He knew that she was very good, with an excellent mind, so she could keep skipping grades, and even got the college notice in advance!But Ogata Seiji never expected that one day he would see his own schoolmaster girl in the chess academy, with such excellent results.He knew she could play chess. When he entered her room a year ago, he accidentally saw the introductory book of Go and some chess records on her bookcase. He thought she was interested in his work and was secretly happy for a long time.I didn't expect her to be studying all the time...

Ogata Seiji felt pain in his heart, and his thin lips were pressed together tightly. No matter how many reasons he had, they couldn't be the reason for him to ignore her.

Soon, Kui's opponent conceded defeat, and Kui breathed a sigh of relief. Since seeing him just now, she has been a little uneasy, obviously he didn't pay attention, but feeling his gaze, how could she feel a little guilty?

Quickly put away the chess pieces, Aoi walked towards several people after registering.

"Teacher, brother...uncle."

Seeing the rare flustered expression on her face, Hitoshi Kuwahara was about to speak when Seiji Ogata suddenly took a step forward, reaching out to hold Aoi's hand, Aoi's heart trembled, and he immediately looked up at him, but he looked at Kuwahara Benevolence.

"Ms. Kuwahara, I want to talk to Aoi first."

Kuwahara Ren pondered for a moment, seeing that he was not angry, he nodded slightly.

Morishitaro looked at the back of Ogata Seiji holding Aoi's hand and leaving, slightly worried, "Teacher, Ogata..."

Kuang Yuanren waved his hand, "It should be fine, he is not angry." On the contrary, he was a little sad and regretful, and the way he looked at his disciple just now...

Kid Ogata would...?Kuwahara Ren's white eyebrows trembled slightly. He remembered that the two of them were indeed not related by blood...

Aoi stared blankly at his hurriedly walking back, her eyes moved down slightly.

The hand was completely held by the broad palm, and the calluses on the fingertips from years of playing chess touched the soft back of her hand, and the scorching temperature spread along the arm to the bottom of her heart.Aoi suddenly realized that this was the first time they held hands, her fingers moved subconsciously, Ogata Seiji noticed her movement, thought she wanted to withdraw her hand, the expression on her face became darker, just about to let go, The little hand that had been held in the palm of his hand stretched out, and the slender fingers gently held his hand.

Ogata Seiji paused, turned to look at her, but met her with a flattering smile, was it because he was afraid that he would be angry, that's why he did this?

With a little more strength in his hand, Ogata Seiji took Aoi to the second floor of the chess academy, found an empty game room and entered, turned on the lights, and closed the door.

"Uncle, I..."

"No need to explain, I'm not angry." If I was angry, I was also angry with himself, "Play a game with me."

Seiji Ogata said so, and he took her to sit in front of the chessboard before letting go.

"Mutual first?"

And said he wasn't angry!His cold voice made Aoi suddenly feel a little wronged. She had never deliberately concealed it from him, and she also started to hold her breath.

"En", without guessing, he directly took the chess box containing the sunspots on the chessboard, took the sunspots and landed a piece.

Ogata Seiji glanced at her and followed suit.For a long time, neither of them spoke, only the crisp sound of "da" when the chess piece fell on the chessboard, both of them were immersed in it and forgot what happened just now.

I don't know how long it took, maybe an hour, maybe longer, the game of chess was finally over.Ogata Seiji looked at Baizi Dalong who was trapped to death by Heizi, and was dazed.

Although there was a reason why he was restless and made a mistake in front of him, Heizi played calmly and decisively when playing chess. ) has learned a lot, how can this be the strength of a chess player who has just entered the stage?

Ogata Seiji's peach blossom eyes were slightly dazed behind the lenses. She has such a high chess power, and she didn't notice it at all.

"I……"

"Sorry……"

The two spoke at the same time, Ogata Seiji looked at the girl who suddenly apologized in surprise.

After playing a game of chess, Aoi buried her head and clasped her hands on her lap nervously.

"Although I didn't hide it from you on purpose at first, I agreed when the teacher and Brother Zhi asked me not to tell you. I'm sorry."

"Wait..." Ogata Seiji looked at her expressionlessly, "You mean Hasegawa? He knows too?"

Oops!Accidentally sold Brother Zhi!

Aoi nodded, sticking out her tongue secretly, not daring to look at him anymore.

Seeing her guilty face, Ogata pondered for a while, thinking of Xiao Liang who had made friends with her, and asked, "Xiao Liang also knows?"

Aoi sneaked a glance at him, and said "hmm".

Ogata Seiji suddenly realized, no wonder, with Xiaoliang's personality, being able to be so close to a person can only be related to Go.

"Who else knows?"

"Mai, because I needed to join a club at school, I joined Mai's Go Club. A while ago, I met Mr. Taya during the pre-selection of the contract."

In short, he is the one who doesn't know anything at all.

In the empty game room, Ogata Seiji's sigh was amplified infinitely, and the guilt in Aoi's heart was also amplified. Just as she was about to apologize again, she heard a voice from the front, a shadow fell, and a warm palm covered her. Above her head, Ogata Seiji's soft voice reached her ears, "It's me who should apologize. I always said to take care of you, but I never fulfilled my responsibilities. Obviously I am the closest to you I'm sorry..."

A warm current spread from the bottom of her heart, and Aoi raised her hand to cover the big one on top of her head, then raised her head slightly, her long eyelashes fluttered, her beautiful eyes curved into crescents, "So this time we're even, right?"

Ogata Seiji raised the corners of his lips slightly, but did not answer, his eyes were soft.

How could it be even?He failed to take good care of her before, but in the future, he is willing to spend his whole life taking care of her.

A small amount of text - see the theater of the trip to hot springs below

The author has something to say: China Theater【Trip to Hot Spring】

When Kuwahara Ren saw his disciple and the little fox Ogata again, he found that the two who were worried about estrangement just now became a little more intimate.

In particular, the way Ogata looked at his disciples, that soft look, made him confirm his previous doubts a little bit, and immediately his wise eyes fell on him to examine him.

Ogata Seiji met Kuwahara Jin's gaze head-on, without retreating at all. The two exchanged some information that they didn't know until they looked at each other. .

In the afternoon, Hasegawa arrived at the chess academy on time to watch Aoi's letter conferring ceremony, but he ran into his good friend outside the venue.His chess-crazy friend spends all day in the chess academy, so it's not surprising to meet him.But Ogata Seiji clearly saw him, but turned around and left as if he didn't see him, which made him very concerned.

Chased after him to talk to him, but ignored everything, until at some point, after chasing him, he was taken to the scene of the book conferring ceremony, and when he saw Aoi, Hasegawa didn't know that things had gone wrong.

Ogata Seiji used ignorance to accuse him of concealing, and Hasegawa, who felt guilty for some reason, kept apologizing, and finally promised to pay for the expenses of the hot spring trip. When Seiji booked the hotel, he booked the best hot spring hotel in Hakone, and it was still the most luxurious. There was a separate open-air hot spring in the courtyard of the room.Hasegawa Satoshi's heart ached for his wallet.

After the book conferring ceremony, Hasegawa drove, took his fiancée Juli, and passengers Aoi and Ogata Seiji to the beautiful Hakone Hot Springs——Mai was going to take the club to participate in the North District Go League early the next morning, so there was no Way to go together.

Hakone is still some distance away from Tokyo, and it took almost 3 hours for a few people to arrive at the scheduled hotel.Since it's Valentine's Day, the hotel is full of couple-friendly settings.Warm and soft lighting, heart-shaped rose petals and balloons.

It was the first time for Aoi to come to this kind of high-end hotel, and it was very fresh to look around.Hasegawa Tomo and Ogata Seiji, who checked in here, encountered a problem. They booked a total of 3 rooms, and there was a heating problem in one room, which made it impossible for people to live in it. Only one suite could be replaced.

Aoi rejected Hasegawa's proposal to live in the same room with Ogata. Today's Valentine's Day, if you disturb the couple's love, you will be kicked by the donkey!Anyway, the door inside the suite can be closed, no problem (no wonder).

The hot spring that comes with the suite is in the courtyard. After eating and resting for a while, the two girls rushed in after changing their clothes. They leaned against the pool and chatted in full swing. Ogata Seiji took Hasegawa to drink, only drinking and not talking .During the period, Shuli took out the wine hidden in the courtyard and secretly drank it with Aoi while the two men were not paying attention.

After a long time, the talkative Hasegawa couldn't bear it anymore, got up and rushed to the hot spring, in Aoi's strange eyes, he picked up Juli and went back to his room, leaving Aoi alone in the hot spring, drinking alone with the girl on the shore Ogata Seiji.

In the smog, Aoi carefully looked at Ogata Kiyoshi's profile, this man whose every move was elegant, unconsciously fascinated Aoi.

In a daze, Aoi only remembered someone calling her name softly in her ear, but she was so sleepy, so she fell asleep holding the hand that was handed over to her.

Sweeping to the empty wine bottle rolling out from behind the stone, Ogata Seiji looked at Aoi who was about to sink into the water holding his hand, and stepped into the hot spring wearing a bathrobe directly, holding her in his arms, holding her The body does not let her sink.Aoi, who was soaked in the warm hot spring water, moved and found a comfortable position in his arms to lean on and continue to sleep.

Caressing her smooth shoulders with gloomy eyes, Ogata Seiji looked at the beautiful snow scene in the courtyard, slightly curled his thin lips, "Valentine's Day... Let's do it again next year!"
