Try again, fail again, fail better.

Ogata Seiji didn't take her to such a high-end restaurant, it was just a conveyor belt sushi restaurant. He sat on the high chair with a relaxed expression, a little lonely in his expression.Liu Fanxu was in a bit of a dilemma, she didn't have a relationship with him that could comfort her mind.This kind of alienated relationship from the first acquaintance made her feel a little bit on pins and needles at this moment.

"What's the matter?" Ogata Seiji glanced at her, smiled and continued, "Hey, don't be so cautious. After all, you will be a senior in a seminar from now on. Do you want to be so unfamiliar with me all the time?"

"I haven't thought about it yet." Liu Fanxu lowered his eyelashes, poking the sushi that Seiji Ogata put in front of her with the chopsticks in her hand, and continued with a worried face, "I never thought about professional chess players. "

"Then don't think about anything for now. The teacher just hopes that you will join our seminar and not waste your talent. As for whether you want to take the path of a professional chess player, we can talk about it later." Ogata Seiji waved his hand, very disapproving.

"You usually go to the bar to get drunk if you lose the game you care about." Liu Fanxu glanced at him and continued casually, "Why didn't you go today?"

"If I didn't know that you are not interested in me, I would have thought you fell in love with me when I heard this." Ogata Seiji's eyes flashed with astonishment, but his face showed a fool who was making fun of innocent girls Uncle's silly expression.

"..." Liu Fanxu didn't even look at him, but her appetite, which was lacking just now, has improved now. She picked up the sushi and ate it slowly. After a piece of sushi was eaten, she said again, "Continued Teacher Fang -----"

"Call me Ogata." He interrupted her address and demanded forcefully. Liu Fanxu stopped, pursed his lips, and changed his words, "Ogata, how long have you been worshiping Taya?"

"It's been 13 years." Ogata Seiji answered every question, and he couldn't see the cunning and sophistry rumors circulating in the chess academy at all.Liu Fanxu couldn't help but look at him more, secretly guessing his intentions, her brows furrowed slightly.Ogata Seiji naturally saw the clues of this unpretentious expression. He smiled and raised his hand to poke her eyebrows, and said dissatisfiedly, "Hey, don't be led astray by outsiders, I'm right My own people don't do that."

Liu Fanxu examined his micro-expressions, and made sure that he was not lying, so she lowered her guard a little bit, but she was still a little confused, and she didn't intend to hide her confusion and ponder alone, so she said, "After all, I just accepted When you received the verbal invitation from Mr. Taya, you don’t know me well, so why did you admit me.” What about the link that was repeatedly scrutinized?Where did you go?

"You think too much, Aga. Besides, how can we not know how vicious the teacher's eyes are." Ogata Seiji's flat tone was mixed with admiration for his teacher.Liu Fanxu nodded, no longer dwelling on this issue.

The meal, despite its strange origins, turned out to be not bad.When Ogata Seiji sent her to the door of the house, she even hesitated whether to invite him in for a cup of coffee.It's not that she gave up her trust easily, but that she doesn't think that hurting her will do him any good.Therefore, I completely let go of my grudges.

Ogata Seiji walked to his sports car, turned around and looked at the lighted room on the building, knowing that it belonged to Liu Fanxu, he looked at it silently for a while, the smile on his lips was still lingering.He lowered his eyelashes, opened the car door with his backhand, and quickly started the gear and stepped on the accelerator.The red sports car drove out of the driveway like flying. He looked at the road scene flashing past, and the lingering desire to conquer in his heart still hadn't completely subsided.

The next day, according to the agreed time, Liu Fanxu went downstairs and saw the red sports car from yesterday.She blinked her eyes and walked to the front slowly, Ogata Seiji did not get out of the car to open the door for her like a gentleman, and it was precisely because of this that she did not think in other directions.She opened the door and sat in the passenger seat. After fastening the seat belt, Seiji Ogata started the car.

"Is it really okay not to pick up Hikari Shinto?" Liu Fanxu was a little hesitant. She had already discussed with Hitoshi Shinto that day, but now that she suddenly broke the appointment, she was still a little worried.However, Ogata Seiji explained, "Xiaoliang and Shinto made an appointment to act together yesterday, I think it's better not to disturb them, a pair of rare rivals."

"Act together?" Liu Fanxu said that he is not so easy to fool, "No matter how to act together, the location of the seminar is also at Taya Mansion, and Shindo still has to go there alone."

"Xiao Liang will go to the station to pick him up." Ogata Seiji raised his hand and looked at the watch on his wrist. "At this time, he has probably been picked up."

"What, is this being dismissed?" Liu Fanxu complained half-truthfully, "Hurry up and get rid of me, the watcher."

"Monitor?" Ogata Seiji raised his eyebrows, "That's right, the two children still want to have their own space of action. As adults, we should give them some freedom. In other words, Shinto's Go is Did you teach it? He is already a professional chess player at the age of 11, as good as Xiao Liang."

"I'm not his teacher, and I just played a few games of chess with him when I met him. It's just a sympathy for each other." After Liu Fanxu finished speaking, he laughed instead, "Isn't it strange that I would feel sympathy with a child."

"Maybe you will feel the same way after playing with me," Ogata Seiji reminded.

"...Understood, I haven't forgotten the match with you today." Liu Fanxu sighed and continued, "Since I agreed, I won't break the appointment."

When they got to Taya House, the two children arrived before them.She breathed a sigh of relief, and after greeting Mrs. Taya, she was pulled into the chess room by Ogata Seiji.Except for Taya Yukihiro and the two children, she didn't recognize anyone else.However, under the introduction of Ogata Seiji, I probably remembered the name.

As usual, Ogata Seiji laid out the chess game from yesterday's game. While they were discussing the placement of the chess pieces enthusiastically, Liu Fanxu and the two children sat on the side in silence.Ta Yaliang is not yet strong enough to interrupt, Shinto Hikaru is deliberately concealing his chess strength, and Liu Fanxu is too noisy to watch the chess game because of Fujiwara.

Every time she goes to Taya's chess room, her main task is to play chess with Saomi Fujiwara.And her breaking the appointment yesterday left Sawei Fujiwara with nothing to play. Naturally, after seeing her today, he would be very difficult to act coquettishly.Relying on the fact that no one else could see him, he grabbed Liu Fanxu's shoulder and kept crying about his grievances.

Liu Fanxu heard her brain throbbing, and she twitched the corners of her mouth, trying to control her facial expression so that others would not see the clue.After the review was finally over, Ogata Seiji took the initiative to mention to Taya Yukihiro that he was going to play chess with her.After Taya Yukihiro's approval, they sat at both ends of the chess table.

Hearing that there are chess games to play, Sato Fujiwara stopped messing around. He sat next to Liu Fanxu beside her, blinking his beautiful watery eyes, with a pleading look.Liu Fanxu couldn't bear to look directly at him and turned away, sighed, and said in his heart: This game is up to you.Ignoring Satoshi Fujiwara's cheers, Liu Fanxu and Ogata Seiji guessed, and she went ahead with the black.

Fujiwara Sakumi's style of chess is old-fashioned. Despite this period of study, he still has not fully adapted to many modern games.Therefore, although he was once famous all over the world as Honinbo Shusaku, now he has only opened a short distance from Ogata Seiji.However, this is just right, otherwise Liu Fanxu would really not be able to explain how she cultivated such powerful chess skills.

When Taya Yukihiro asked about her style of chess, she only said that she played more of Shuce's chess records recently, which would make her style of chess change drastically.It's just that she explained it, and seeing Taya Yukiyo's thoughtful face, she knew that he didn't fully believe it.Perhaps, he invited her to join the seminar not only because of her chess skills.

Just as Taya Ryo chased Shinto Hikaru, Taya Yukihiro also chased his opponent Sai.This is fate, Liu Fanxu couldn't help sighing.

However, she does not intend to intervene to do superfluous things.It doesn't matter if you say she is indifferent or ruthless.It was the limit of her rights that she allowed Shinto Hikaru, an old soul, to stay in this immature body.It is impossible for her to have the energy to interfere in the fate of more people, even if this person is related to Sai.She will not forget what her real purpose is, and realizes that she is too much affected by the people and things around her. She can't help but wonder if she has stayed here for too long, so that she also feels Some are not like themselves.

Back to the small home he built here, Liu Fanxu sat in front of the window, looking at the vast night sky outside, feeling empty in his heart.Even Hikari Shinto, he is slowly integrating into the current life, only she is still wandering outside the world, unable to find a sense of belonging.No matter how hard she manages, she will only feel more and more empty, why?
