"I don't know much about Nishimiya Shoko's situation, but I think it may be related to the fact that she started wearing hearing aids too late," said Kazuto Yuyama.
"Is that so?" Kato Megumi suddenly felt a little heavy.
"What are you doing here?"
Senju Nanjia suddenly walked out from the side and gestured in sign language.
Nishimiya Glass followed behind Senju Nanjia, ready to translate.
"Nothing." Yushan and others smiled and squatted down. "Have you finished the land reclamation work?"
Nishimiya Naoko looked at Yushan Kazuto with some surprise. How come Yushan Kazuto could understand sign language after just a week's absence?
Senju Nanjia looked confused, and Nishimiya Glass hurriedly translated for her, and she smiled and nodded.
"There is a piece of land that I dug!"
"Really? Senju is amazing."
When she heard the word "Senju", Senju Nanjia blinked her eyes. She still understood her own name.
But after listening to what Yushan Kazuto said, Senju Nanjia looked a little worried and gestured with her hands randomly. Even Hui-chan, who was connected to a small camera for gesture recognition, couldn't tell what she was doing.
Nishimiya Glass hurriedly wrote in her notebook: "Nanjia said, do you hate her?"
"How could that be?" Yushan Heren blinked.
"She said that if you didn't hate her, you should call her Nanja instead of Senju."
Yushan Kazuto blinked. Are kids nowadays so sensitive?
"Nanjia."
Hearing Hayama Kazuto's call, Senju Nanjia smiled and kissed Hayama Kazuto on the face.
Chapter 162: First Battle in the Third Division League
Sunday, Japan Shogi Association.
This three-stage league had a bumpy ride. The original sponsor suddenly broke the contract, and the new sponsor was slow to sign, causing the event, which was originally scheduled to start in early April, to be delayed until the end of June.
In order not to affect the normal time of subsequent competitions, the three-season league with a cycle of half a year was forcibly compressed into three months.
Because time was too tight, an online three-stage league was launched as a precedent. However, the online network of the three-stage league can only be connected in official chess academies across the country.
Kong Ginko's opponent today is a chess player from the Kansai Chess Institute, who plays against Kong Ginko remotely through the Internet.
The game between Kazuto Yuyama and Hayama was more traditional. It was just an ordinary live game. His opponent was a Chiba chess player, who was a fellow countryman of Kazuto Yuyama.
"【God descending from the sky】Hayama Kazuto vs. 【Chiba Buddha's Hand】Fujiko Kyo 3rd Dan!"
[God descended from heaven, what kind of a title is this? Teng Zijing, why don’t you call yourself Teng Zijing and be exiled to Baling County? ]
Since Kazuto Yuyama is not an internal member of the chess academy and has not been ranked, there is no rank after his name.
Fujiko Kyo is a hardworking chess player. After being promoted to the third dan, he has been working hard in special training, hoping to stand out in the third dan league and become a professional chess player in one fell swoop.
Because of this, Fujiko Kyo had never heard of the name of Hayama Kazuto, and was somewhat smug when she met Hayama Kazuto in the first game:
[This is the kind of chess player who got promoted from amateur competitions. This kind of chess player usually plays an unconventional way and has one or two unique skills, but his actual chess ability is relatively average. Just play steadily and don't let him catch your flaws.]
Fujiko Kyo's other chess skills can only be considered average, but his stability is unparalleled. He is mature, steady, and neither arrogant nor impatient, just like an old monk who has seen through the world. This is the origin of his nickname "Chiba Buddha's Hand".
Fujiko Kyo's analysis of Hayama Kazuto's promotion method was correct, but his analysis of Hayama Kazuto's chess skills was completely wrong!
Yushan Heren went first and took the fragrant car at the beginning.
[Starting with a car rushing forward? Then I should go for a speed car. 】
Fujiko Kyo jumped with his car, without any reckless moves, and took steady steps.
[This guy is also an iron bucket formation? ]
In less than a second, Yushan made another move and unexpectedly took the chariot.
Fujiko Kyo had never encountered such a strange situation before. Starting with two fragrant chariots was a common sense mistake that only beginners would make.
Is he really the winner of the amateur competition?
Although Fujiko Kyo had doubts in his heart, he still did not take it lightly. Steadyness and caution were his winning magic weapon that helped him reach the third league.
Snap, snap, snap, snap, there was a crackling sound of pieces falling, and the situation became more and more weird.
Fujiko Kyo felt very strange. The formations she designed were always torn to pieces by Yushan and others' playful moves.
If Fujiko Kyo did it once or twice, she could still understand it, but if it happened four or five times in a row, she would have to doubt it.
“Is this a three-stage league?”
"Why does it look like a match between beginners?"
"I can't see any technical content at all. It's just like a child playing house."
Listening to the voices of the audience, Fujiko Kyo's mentality became a little unbalanced. Every time, when his formation was about to be completed, Yushan Kazuto would always destroy the formation with one strike at the right time.
Not to mention that the audience couldn't understand this game, even Fujiko Kyo herself couldn't see through it.
In the president's office, Gekko Seiichi frowned as he listened to Oga Sasori's narration:
[What is Yushan playing at? He has kept several chances to kill the opponent hidden. Did he not notice it, or did he do it on purpose?]
……
Unconsciously, Fujiko Kyo gradually fell into a disadvantage, and the balance of victory slowly tilted towards Yushan Kazuto.
The Wu clothing on Fujiko Kyo's body was soaked with sweat. Even if he wanted to take one step at a time and proceed slowly, he no longer had the chance.
Continuing to be conservative would only mean slow death. This was the first time that Fujiko Kyo had encountered such a strange situation.
[I didn't lose much chess pieces, and I was able to get in. I still have a chance to give it a try.]
Fujiko Kyo was thinking quietly, trying to find a chance to break the impasse. He was extremely serious and focused.
In sharp contrast to him was Yushan Kazuto who was sitting opposite him. He was sitting cross-legged, one hand on his knee, chin resting on his hand, looking up at the ceiling, looking very lazy and nonchalant.
After thinking for nearly ten minutes, Fujiko Kyo finally made a move. Yushan Kazuto pressed his finger on the Dragon King. Suddenly, he saw Kong Ginko stood up not far away. He moved his finger and exchanged it for a Gui Ma.
[The money is falling so fast today? ]
The landing of Gui Ma was like a sudden thunderclap out of nowhere, instantly bringing the lifeless chess game to life.
All of Yushan and others' hidden chess moves were connected, one after another, full of murderous intent. Fujiko Kyo gasped and covered her chest, beads of sweat the size of beans slid down her cheeks and dripped onto the chessboard.
Yushan Kazuto looked at Fujiko Kyo quietly. Fujiko Kyo's eyes quickly scanned the chessboard, hoping to find an opportunity to survive from a desperate situation.
"Hazuyama Kazuto is too murderous."
Moonlight Shengshi was a little unhappy, but he had to admit that Yushan Heren's Guima was really a stroke of genius, and even he couldn't think of a way to crack it.
"I, I lost." Fujiko Kyo admitted defeat.
"Ha~" Yushan and others yawned and walked to the empty
Beside Yin Zi: "Yin Zi, did you win?"
"The opponent's strength is average." Kong Yinzi said, "But you, why did you take so long?"
With Yushan Kazuto's strength, he could have easily crushed Fujiko Kyo with a quick win, but it took him nearly two hours, which puzzled Sora Ginko.
"Waiting for you." Yushan Heren shrugged and said.
In fact, he could have ended the game at the 31st move, but considering that Kong Yinzi always played chess very slowly, he deliberately delayed it until now.
Kong Yinzi glared at Yushan Heren, her heart slightly moved: "By the way, my uncle said that he wants to meet you."
"Your uncle?" Yushan Kazuto thought of Kiyotaki Kosuke, "Isn't he also a weird old man who likes bishoujo games?"
"My uncle is the president of the Shogi Alliance." Kong Yinzi gritted his teeth.
"The president of the Shogi League." Yushan Kazuto felt that this title was a bit strange. "Shouldn't he be called the leader of the league?"
Kong Yinzi frowned: "Who would pay attention to such a boring question!"
Walking in the chess academy, Yushan Heren suddenly asked, "Is your uncle the one from the Moonlight Holy City last time?"
"Yeah." Kong Yinzi nodded, but in fact she didn't know the identity of Moonlight Shengshi at that time. It was only after she returned home and mentioned it to Qingtaki Kosuke that she learned about the relationship between the two parties.
"Eh." Yushan Heren suddenly had the idea of backing out. If he remembered correctly, Moonlight Holy City had been coveting him for a long time.
Chapter 163 Summer Arrangements
on Monday.
The sun in July is extremely hot, making people feel listless early in the morning.
The fan was turning lazily and listlessly. The air conditioner had just been turned on and the effect was not obvious. Many students crowded under the fan blades, greedily enjoying the thin cool air.
When we get together, it is natural for us to chat. As July approaches, the countdown to the semester begins, and we chat about summer vacation.
"Of course I stay at home and play video games! There are so many big games recently, such as The Man Picking Up Branches, Golf 2, and Bug2077, but I haven't played them yet!"
"I should go work during the summer vacation. The school doesn't allow part-time jobs during the week. My pocket money has run out."
"Maybe we'll go on a family trip. My dad said he'd take me to Okinawa for snorkeling!"
"Hey, hey, really? My family is going to Okinawa too! How about we go together?"
"You all have to go traveling! I have to go back to the country and help with the housework! Alas, the summer vacation is over before it even begins!"
……
Kato Megumi and Hayama Kazuto sat in their seats and did not fight for the strong cool air.
"Kazuto, what are you going to do during the summer vacation?" Kato Megumi suddenly asked.
"I, I should go to Tama for a while, then go back to Chiba, and return to Tokyo in early August." Yushan Heren's arrangements were relatively clear.
"Tama?" Kato Megumi looked at Yushan Kazuto, somewhat confused.
"My aunt lives in Tama. I'm going to visit her during the summer vacation."
"Is that so? Returning to Tokyo so early?" Kato Megumi pinched the ends of her hair and said.
Toyonosaki's summer vacation will not start until July 19th, and Yushan Kazuto plans to return to Tokyo in early August. In other words, he only plans to be away from Tokyo for ten days.
"The Tokyo Metropolitan Football League will start in August, so I have to come back early to play football," said Kazuto Hayama.
"In this case, if we go to Tama, wouldn't we have less time to go back to Chiba?" Kato Megumi still remembered that Kazuto Hayama's hometown was in Chiba.
"My parents are not in Chiba, so going back is just a trip around." Yushan Heren smiled. He didn't have too much hometown complex about Chiba, he just went back out of habit.
"Oh." Kato Megumi's voice was drawn out.
"Mei, what about you? What are your plans for the summer vacation?"
"I...I'm going on a family trip! Well, but the trip is scheduled for August." Kato Megumi said.
"Family trip? That's great. I've never had this experience before." Yushan Kazuto smiled.
"Huh? Hasn't Kazuto ever been on a family trip?" Kato Megumi was a little surprised.
"Well... my parents have been very busy since I was a child. In fact, I haven't taken a walk with them since I was two years old." Yushan Kazuto explained calmly, as if he was telling the experience of a completely unrelated person.
"Well."
……
"Let's go for a walk by the river tonight?" Kato Megumi suddenly said after getting off the tram.
"Huh? Okay." Yushan Heren nodded without asking any more questions.
"I'll wait for you at Shinmachi 6-chome Pier at 8pm."
……
The colorful lights of the city are reflected in the river, and the flowing water breaks them into a colorful light and shadow.
Walking along the river bank, the night breeze is cool.
"The Fukagawa River Beach is just ahead!" Kato Megumi pointed ahead.
The water suddenly turned a corner in front, leaving a piece of open space in the middle of the curve, which was called Fukagawa River Beach.
At night, many residents nearby come here to rest, and every night is particularly lively.
