The Sayuka she wanted to portray was an ignorant, green and innocent girl, rather than a green tea master with excellent tea art.
"I understand where my problem lies, Mr. Kirisu." said Kasumigaoka Utaha.
The person involved is confused. Kasumigaoka Utaha only considered that these two plots were outstanding enough, but did not take into account the connection between the plot and the characters. Fortunately, Kirisu Mafuyu pointed it out.
"Didn't Editor Machida notice these problems?" asked Kirisu Madoka.
"I don't know." Kasumigaoka Utaha shook her head, "Maybe she found out, maybe not."
"If there is enough time, I suggest you follow the original plot, trim it down and rewrite it." Kirisu Madoka stood up and left the room.
Chapter 381: The Request of Manaji
Friday, Japan Shogi Association.
Last week was a special case as it was the opening ceremony of the Dragon King Tournament, so the game was moved to Saturday. This week we are back to the normal rhythm with one game every Friday.
"Kazuto-nii, Ayano and the others are over there. I'll go over first."
After a week of getting along, Hana Shirasaki became much closer to Mio Mio Miokoshi and Ayano Sadato. In addition, Mio Miokoshi was a carefree person to begin with, so Hana Shirasaki started calling her by her name.
"Xiaohua, you're here too!" Mizukoshi Mio saw Shirosaki Hana coming over and greeted her enthusiastically.
"Yes, I came here with Brother Kazuto." said Shirosaki Hana.
"Where are Ayano and Charlotte? I saw them here before, why are they gone all of a sudden?"
"The two of them saw the senior sisters in the shogi classroom and went over to say hello." Mizukoshi Mio said.
Sadano Ayano and Charlotte are both students of the Galio Shogi Classroom. Their senior sister is the famous female shogi player, Machi Kyoumi.
……
"Yamashiro Sakura, Kyougohan Machi, what do you want from me?" Kong Ginko couldn't help but blinking as she looked at Kyougohan Machi and the two little girls beside her.
Yamashiro Sakura is the female title of Gong Gohan Maji, and her actual title is "Mana of Murder", known for her strong and almost violent defense of the Angulimala siege.
"Naniwa's Shirayuki-hime, Sora Ginko."
Hearing Gong Yufan Wanzhi announce his title, Kong Yinzi frowned: "Is there something wrong? I still have to prepare for the Dragon King Tournament."
"Sora Ginko, the chess player you are playing against today is the iron-walled bear, Yajima Masao," asked Gong Yufan Manzhi.
"It's indeed him, that's right." Kong Yinzi nodded.
"He likes to use the Cave Bear Guard just like me." Gong Yufan Wanzhi said with a smile.
"I know."
Kong Yinzi had collected this information long before the game. She even helped Yushan Heren collect information about the opponent. However, for Yushan Heren, the information she collected was not of much use.
"So, what exactly do you want to do from me?" Kong Yinzi looked at Gong Yufan Wanzhi with some dissatisfaction.
"Nothing, I just wanted to meet the only female professional chess player so far." Gong Yufan Wanzhi smiled. "What an enviable talent."
"My talent... I can only say it's not bad." Kong Yinzi said.
She has a clear understanding of herself. Her talent is outstanding, but not top-notch. Especially after seeing Yushan Heren's talent, she will never be arrogant.
[That kid that day was indeed gifted. ]
"Chess Master Kong Ginko, there is something I would like to ask you for a favor." Gong Yufan Wanzhi suddenly straightened up a little.
"What's the matter?" Kong Yinzi asked.
"I hope you can break through the cave bear siege set up by Masao Yajima."
Sora Ginko frowned. Gong Gohan Manji's request was a bit too much. To break the Anaguma enclosure, it would mean that Yajima Masao would have to build the Anaguma enclosure first, which was somewhat contrary to Sora Ginko's original plan.
"I'm sorry, I can't agree to that." Kong Yinzi shook her head and walked out of the room. Gong Yufan Wanzhi shook his head, feeling helpless.
"Senior sister, why did you ask Naniwa's Shirayukihime to break the Anaguma siege of Yajima Masao?" Sadano Ayano asked in confusion. Even she felt that Gong Yuhan Manzhi's request was a bit excessive.
"Ayano, what do you think of senior sister's use of the Anaguma apron?" Gong Yufan Wanzhi did not answer, but asked instead.
"Senior sister, that's amazing." Before Ayano Sadano could answer, Charlotte spoke first.
"Well, senior sister's Anaguma skills are no less impressive than those of many professional chess players," said Sadano Ayano.
"But he can't be as good as Yajima Masao." said Gong Yufan Manchi.
Masao Yajima's title is the Iron Wall Bear, and he is also known as the Anaguma Guard, but he is only a professional fifth dan, and the gap between him and Gong Gohan Manzhi is still very obvious.
"Yeah." Ayano Sadano responded.
"I'm already trapped in the Cave Bear Circle, and the Cave Bear Circle has become a circle that surrounds me. However, I still want to go one step further, Ayano, do you understand what I mean?" asked Gong Yufan Wanzhi.
Sadano Ayano blinked and understood what Gong Gohan Manchi was thinking. She wanted to see Sora Ginko break through the Anaguma formation, find the Anaguma formation's weaknesses, and then recruit and train them.
"But senior sister, the Demon Lord can definitely break through the Anagama siege easily, why don't you ask him for help? He will play against Yajima Masao next week." asked Sadano Ayano.
"The Demon Lord's chess moves... I don't understand them. Even if I review the game, I still can't understand them." Gong Yufan Wanzhi said with a wry smile.
……
In the backcourt, Yushan Kazuto asked:
"Silver, where have you been?"
"I was called over by Yamashiro Sakura." said Kong Yinzi.
"Yamashiro Sakura, what is that?" asked Yushan Kazuto.
"Can't you just learn some basic knowledge about shogi?" Kong Yinzi said dissatisfiedly.
"She is a female chess player, serving as a guest to Manaji."
Yushan and Ren suddenly realized something: "Oh, it's her!"
"Do you know him?" Kong Yinzi's voice suddenly became much lower.
"No, I don't know him." Yushan Heren shrugged, "I'm just cooperating with your performance."
Kong Yinzi rolled his eyes at Yushan Heren and leaned back in his chair.
"What does she want to talk to you about?" asked Yushan Heren.
“She wants to see me break
Get rid of the cave bear siege." Kong Yinzi said.
"Did you promise her?"
"How could I agree to this? The cave bear encirclement is not that easy to break." Kong Yinzi said unhappily.
Yushan Kazuto blinked: "I think it's quite simple."
Kong Yinzi glared at Yushan Heren and said, "Do you think everyone is the same as you?"
"In fact, you can give it a try. I felt it when I played chess with you last Saturday. You have already mastered the art of Dragon Slaying."
Kong Yinzi blinked her beautiful eyes slightly, and her long eyelashes drew an arc in the air.
[It's been so long, are you just getting started? 】
"Anyway, we are in the sixth group and there is only one qualifying spot. You can try your best to experiment with the tactics and verify what you have learned." Yushan Heren said.
There is only one qualifying spot in Group 6, and that spot belongs to Kazuto Yuyama.
He did not intend to give the spot to Kong Yinzi. Although Kong Yinzi had already mastered the art of Tulongwei, it was still difficult for her to face shogi masters, such as Hanyu Sanye. If he gave the qualifying spot to her, it would be difficult for her to achieve anything. It would be better for him to keep it for himself.
"To verify what I have learned?" Kong Yinzi pondered.
As Hayama Kazuto said, the victory or defeat in the sixth group of the Ryuo Tournament is of little significance. At most the winner will get an extra 100,000 yen in prize money. It would be better to verify his own shogi ideas and improve his level, and perhaps the rewards will be greater.
"I understand. I will try it." Kong Yinzi said.
Yushan Kazuto smiled.
Suddenly, Kong Yinzi turned around and said, "You really don't know Gong Yufan Wanzhi?"
Chapter 382: Cute Tiger of Kanto
Walking out from the backcourt, the pupils of Yushan Kazuto and Sora Ginko shrank instantly.
There was a figure next to Shirasaki Hana.
It was Hinazuru Ai.
[What's going on? Did Xiao Ai run away from home again? ]
[Why did this brat come to Tokyo again? Why did he sneak here alone? ]
Hinazuru Ai looked at Yushan Kazuto, waved her hand, then looked at Sora Ginko and made a face.
【This stinky brat. 】
Kong Yinzi glared at her unhappily, then turned away as if nothing had happened.
Yushan Heren glanced at the crowd, and a figure with his head lowered, standing behind the crowd, appeared in his sight.
[Is Uncle Hinazuru here too? It seems like he didn't run away from home this time. ]
Yushan Kazuto breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Hinazuru Ai, who was chatting with Shirasaki Hana and others.
Perhaps because they were of similar age, they seemed to have a lot to talk about. Even Sadano Ayano, who usually didn't talk much, started talking.
Although Charlotte couldn't get a word in, she wasn't annoyed. She held her face and looked at Yushan Heren with a smile.
Yushan Heren also smiled at Charlotte, but this little action was noticed by Kong Yinzi out of the corner of her eye, and she poked the soft flesh on Yushan Heren's waist with the folding fan in her hand.
"Hey, Yinzi, what are you doing? There are so many people here." Yushanheren was startled, straightened up and said in a low voice.
"They can't see it." Kong Yinzi turned his head to the side and said.
She was wearing a Wu costume for playing chess, the sleeves of which were very wide. Others could only see Kong Yinzi's sleeves swaying, but had no idea what she was doing.
……
Kazuto Hayama's opponent is the fierce tiger of Kanto, Imagawa Ryo, 7th dan.
He is the only chess player above 6th dan in the sixth group.
It is a bit embarrassing to say, after all, a seventh-dan chess player is not considered low. Although there is still a certain distance from the ninth-dan, it is not comparable to the fourth-dan and fifth-dan chess players.
However, due to his recent poor performance, after registering for the Dragon King Tournament, he was unexpectedly assigned to the sixth group. He became the only seventh-dan chess player in the sixth group, and also one of only three chess players above the fifth dan in the sixth group.
Some people with bad intentions changed Imagawa Ryo's title from "Kanto's fierce tiger" to "Kanto's cute tiger", which became a laughing stock for a while.
However, despite the recent poor results, Imagawa Ryo's mentality is still good, at least much better than that of Xiao Chukui in the last game.
Imagawa Ryo is also a veteran in the shogi world. He has experienced ups and downs many times and is used to it.
Yushan Heren felt a little strange. Why did the two people he met in a row both have poor performance recently?
But it is actually normal. Those who have had good performance recently, unless they are newcomers, how could they be assigned to the sixth group?
If Kuzuryuu Yaichi was not the title holder, based on his recent record, he might have been placed in the sixth group.
Imagawa Ryo does not have any special skills, but correspondingly, he is good at every tactic.
His moves are not slow and he has his own ideas. If his recent condition had not been so bad, he would definitely not have fallen into the sixth group.
Because of this, Yushan Kazuto defeated him cleanly.
Imagawa Ryo looked at Hayama Kazuto and was a little stunned. Even if his recent form was not good, he would not lose so directly.
We lost in less than half an hour.
"Mr. Imagawa, your condition is gradually recovering. You can try to play a few more games of shogi with friends to get a feel for it." Yushan Kazuto stood up and said.
Imagawa Ryo blinked. Who was the senior? But he still thanked him: "Thank you."
……
"Kazuto-nii-san." Hinazuru Ai walked to the side and called out first.
"Xiao Ai, why are you in Tokyo again?" asked Yushan Kazuto.
"Dad brought me here." Hinazuru Ai laughed.
Yushan Kazuto raised his head and looked for Hinazuru Takashi again, but Hinazuru Takashi was no longer in the original place.
"Where is your father?" asked Yushan Kazuto.
