[Soul of Chess] Shugui

Chapter 27 Heartbeat is not as good as action

"Dear viewers and friends, hello everyone. Yesterday's game was really exciting and climaxed. The main player of the Japanese team, Shinto Shidan, dragged his sick body to participate in the game. With his amazing strength and tenacious perseverance, he defeated Zhao Shi, the main general of the Chinese team, and the vice generals and three generals of the two teams are not far behind, fighting hard, bringing us two high-level games. Among them, the Chinese team's vice general, Leping chess player, and three generals, Luo Chen chess player, are at the key Breaking through himself at all times, breaking out of the siege, narrowly winning with two goals and half goals respectively.

The Chinese team defeated the powerful Japanese team with a score of 2:1.

However, due to the physical condition of the Japanese team leader, today's game is still the familiar Chinese team against the mysterious South Korean team.

And this team game is very important for the Chinese team.Whether to confirm the advantage of winning the championship in one fell swoop, or to wait for the results of the game between the Japanese team and the Korean team and accept the runner-up or third-place ranking depends on today's battle!

Whether the Chinese team wins or loses, can the South Korean team make a successful appearance and win the next victory?

let us wait and see! "

The beautiful host talked eloquently. After the host finished speaking, the camera turned to the explaining chessboard.

On the chessboard, the game between the Chinese leader Zhao Shi and the Korean leader Hong Xiuying is unfolding step by step.

No one knows who will win this game.

Due to the unwellness of the Japanese team leader Hikari Shindo, upon the application of the Japanese team, the Chinese Chamber of Commerce negotiated with the participating players from the other two countries and agreed to move the Japanese team to the last game, and the Chinese team will play against the South Korean team first.

This led to today's team competition.

The tense match was still going on, and Shinto was lying on the hospital bed, watching the live broadcast on the TV.

Taya was sitting on the bench next to the bed, unpacking the ice cream he just bought.

In the Sino-Japanese match yesterday morning, after confirming that he had defeated Zhao Shi, Shinto landed a head hammer on the unfinished chessboard, which shocked everyone.

Taya rushed to Shinto's side immediately, and only had time to support Shinto, who was tilted and almost fell after holding the head hammer.

The scene immediately became chaotic, calling for medical staff, calling for an ambulance, cutting off the live broadcast, arranging commercial breaks... All kinds of voices were mixed together.

Taya and Zhao Shi worked together to carry Shinto from the match place to the place where the team leader was sitting before, anxiously waiting for the ambulance to arrive.

The medical staff arranged by the organizer also got busy around Shindo's group.

Fortunately, the match between Shinto and Zhao Shi is over, and the results of this match will not be affected by it.

But for the four players who are still playing chess, Shinto's fainting without warning will undoubtedly bring great shock to their hearts, especially the remaining two players of the Japanese team.

Although She Qingchun always follows up with Fujito to fight and make jokes, but in his heart, he has long recognized Jinto's chess skills and regards him as the spiritual pillar of the team.

When she knew that Jin Teng had won against Zhao Shi, She suddenly felt the pressure drop, but she was also full of energy.

But before he was happy for a few seconds, Shinto made a joke with Sha Qingchun, which unexpectedly caused a great commotion at the scene.

This silver-haired boy who never played cards according to common sense was really frightened by Shindo's hand this time.

When he reacted and turned his attention back to the chessboard, he realized that the advantage he had built before had been completely wiped out by Le Ping.

Hearing a loud bumping sound coming from beside him, Yi Jiao was startled.But soon, he sorted out his emotions and focused on the chessboard in front of him.

Now that Guangzai has already won one victory, I also want to win two as soon as possible to end the game.

Luo Chen looked up at Yi Jiao, and understood.

Is this going to compete with myself for dismantling speed?

So, let's try it out, is it your white stones that move faster, or my black stones that occupy a wider area.

You must know that victory is not something you can have if you want it, you also need to have the strength to match it.

"I lost."

"I lost."

The two words of admitting defeat sounded at the same time, Hong Xiuying was startled, and turned her head to look.

It turned out that the three generals in his team had surrendered...

Ah, two defeats already.

Hong Xiuying put down the chess piece, and belatedly felt a dull pain spreading from the palm of her hand.

Zhao Shi raised his head and smiled: "Certainly."

The Chinese team won again.

In the ward, Shinto and Taya looked at each other, and when Taya was about to speak, Shinto rushed to say, "I'm going! Tomorrow's game."

"No." Taya's attitude was very firm, "You still have a fever."

Shinto looked straight into Taya's eyes: "I know my body well. I'm going tomorrow!"

Taya staggered Shinto's gaze, and pursed her lips tightly.

Although Shinto made a strong request, Taya was the team leader of the game.If he does not arrange for Ito to play when he confirms the order of team competition with the organizer, the organizer will not force Ito to leave the game, and may even directly agree with Taya's plan.

Therefore, Jinto must first secure his quota with Taya before he can confirm that he will be able to play tomorrow.

"Taya, I can play chess." Shinto stared at the side face of Taya who turned away, the side face was tightened by his pursed lips, and the lines of the face were slender and clear.

Taya sighed and compromised: "I can let you play, but you won't be the main general."

Taya decided to arrange the positions of the three chess players in the way of "Tianji horse racing".

"No!" Shinto sat up from the head of the bed all of a sudden, "I want to get off with Hong Xiuying!"

"No." Ta Ya shook his head gently, "You and Hong Xiuying are evenly matched. You can play as long as you want when you are not sick, but now, your physical strength and energy can't keep up."

Jinto became angry when he heard it: "You are not me, how do you know that I can't keep up."

Taya softened her tone: "Shinto, don't make fun of your body."

"I don't need you!" Shinto became more excited, "I will take care of my body, why do you care about me!"

Ta Ya was startled, he opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

With that little wound on the lip that has long since healed, is it okay?

With that intimate time years ago, can you?

With the alienation of the past few days, is it okay?

……

After a long time, Taya spoke softly: "I see."

After speaking, Taya left the ward.

Shinto looked at the box of ice cream that was placed on the bedside table, slowly turning from a hard solid into a sweet and greasy syrup.

There was a unique aroma of ice cream floating in the air, but Shinto could only taste the bitterness in his mouth.

After the first day and the second day of the battle, the Chinese team defeated the Japanese team and the South Korean team respectively, and is already the biggest winner of this competition.

But the audience is still very interested in who will get No.2.

In the venue on the third day, the number of spectators actually increased.

Some young girls walked into the ancient world of Go, and some office workers in suits and leather shoes also bought tickets to enter the venue under the instructions of their immediate superiors.

The former may be attracted by the good looks of the young chess players. As for the latter, it is probably a hard target issued by the head office. After all, the daughter of a certain country's chaebol happens to be participating in this tournament.

However, Hong Xiuying didn't care at all how many people came to the venue where the chess game was explained, and who they were.

He just feels very unhappy now.

After finally having the opportunity to play a game of chess with Fujimitsu in a serious manner, Shinto fell ill.

Although the chess game on the first day was over, Shinto was sent to the hospital for treatment and stayed in the ward for two days.

But isn’t there such a saying, the less often a person gets sick, the more serious the illness will be.

As soon as Shinto appeared this morning, everyone could see that his physical condition was not very good.

Hong Xiuying, who was originally full of pride and ambition, was extremely depressed when she saw Shinto's weak appearance.

Although both of them went all out and did not release water due to external reasons, in the middle of the game, Shindo still made a mistake.

If it was Shinto in normal times, this mistake might have been turned into an unexpected move by him, but today Shinto didn't notice it, and eventually made repeated mistakes and lost the game.

The people who listened to the general's game explanation in the venue felt sorry for Shinto's mistake, but fortunately, Ikaku and Shasha were more up-to-date and won the victory in the hands of two new Korean chess players.

So far, the three-day winter "Rising Sun Cup" home team competition of China, Japan and South Korea Go League has finally come to an end.

The Chinese team won two victories in the first two days and ranked first.

In the situation of losing to the Chinese team, the Japanese team won a victory from the South Korean team with the victories of the lieutenant and the three generals, ranking second.

The South Korean team lost two games in a row and became the bottom team.

After the results of the competition became clear, the expressions and reactions of the chess players of the main teams of each country were different. Some were happy and some were sad.

The next three days will be a friendly exchange match between the vice-teams of the three countries.

The chess players of the deputy teams of China, Japan, and South Korea are gearing up and fighting with high spirits.

The teams that have won in the previous three days want to continue the glorious record of the home team, and they are happy with each other; the teams that have lost want to find a place for their chess players. They can't lose the game, and then lose the friendly match. If you lose face and face, go back to your country in despair.

Especially not in their own home field, but in a distant foreign country. The pressure on chess players from other countries is doubled, and they devoted themselves to the three-day friendly exchange match with the attitude of "no success or success".

Chess players are not only unwilling, but when they think of the scene of being ridiculed by their peers and ridiculed by the media after losing the game, they make up their minds not to let this kind of tragedy happen to them.

Of course, in the three-day friendly exchange match, in addition to the friendly match in the morning, there are also many spontaneous games and hand talks presented here.

Chess players from other regions such as Europe and the United States come here admiringly. They either invite contestants to compete with each other, or invite friends to communicate with each other, or imitate the "Rising Sun Cup" and form a three-person team to hone around.

Because of this, at this exchange meeting, high-quality chess games continued to emerge, and major sports channels rushed to report.

Inadvertently, there was an upsurge of learning Go among the people.

Let’s not mention the future, just adjust the time axis to the present.

At the end of the exchange meeting, Hong Xiuying knocked on the door of Jinteng's room. Of course, behind him was a tall man with red hair—Gao Yongxia.

"Shinto, I want to play chess with you."

Hong Xiuying was a little confused.

In the team competition between Japan and South Korea, although he won, Shindo was still sick at that time, and he made several obvious mistakes that he would not normally make.Hong Xiuying only felt that she won the game because of this reason.

Recalling the night when she first arrived in China, Hong Xiuying wanted to play a few games of chess with Jinto in private, but Jinto happened to be away.

At the exchange meeting afterwards, Shinto never appeared.As the main player of the South Korean team and the representative of outstanding Go players in the Korean youth Go world, Hong Xiuying cannot do without the scene of the exchange meeting.

After so many days, he has never been able to find a chance to follow up with Teng.

Now, the "Rising Sun Cup" competition is over. After tomorrow's awards ceremony, the South Korean team's trip to China will come to an end, and he will soon return home with the team.

If I don't find Shinto now, I don't know when it will be when we meet next time.

Although after the "Beidou Cup", Hong Xiuying also found Fujita for a few rounds, but the two had their own victories, and Hong Xiuying's winning rate was even lower, which made him reconciled.

Coupled with the different nationalities of the two, there is little overlap in chess games; the rank is relatively low, and there are very few international competitions that are eligible to participate.If you miss this time, you may have to wait until you increase your winning rate and meet the minimum standards for participating in international competitions before you have the opportunity to have a formal match.

And this kind of private game is not as good as a confrontation in a serious arena.

However, Hong Xiuying's obsession with Hikari Shinto is deeply rooted, and it is better than nothing to be able to play a few more rounds before returning to China.

"Okay. Wait for me."

Shindo was not surprised to see Hong Xiuying.

After all, after he finished playing the chess game in the "Rising Sun Cup", he was also very unwilling.

But just after the chess game ended, he was sent to the ward again by Taya.

He Gu laughed at that time, saying that if he didn't take a good rest and troubled the team leader, he would not even have to eat the ramen made by Taya himself after he returned home.

Ramen?Shinto smiled wryly in his heart, maybe after he went back, he wouldn't even be able to eat the rice cooked by Taya himself.

After all, Taya-sensei already knew...

Jin Teng took the room card and walked out with Hong Xiuying.

He was the only one in the room, so Shinto directly closed the door tightly.

As for Taya, maybe he went to play chess with others.

During the exchange meeting, Taya's sixth dan was warmly taken care of by chess players from all over the world. Every day, different chess players came to him to play games.

Even Shinto's ward has not been there a few times.

Of course, it may also be deliberately not coming.

Shinto thought it was very funny, before he unconsciously avoided Taya - he realized his abnormality after a while; now it is Taya who is hiding unconsciously, or really deliberately into the vine.

Like two naive elementary school students who said "I ignore you" when they disagreed.

But it's not like a child with a lot of forgetfulness, who can hold hands and play together in the next second.

Instead, it went directly from a quarrel to a cold war.

It's a cold war...

It really can't stand a little test, whether it's me or him.

Hong Xiuying and Jinteng walked to the living room.

Since a group of Go players lived in the hotel, and it was for publicity and competition, the hotel naturally cleaned up a small living room in a very timely manner, and prepared several sets of chess sets for the players to play chess.

In a five-star hotel, the quality of service is not something to talk about casually.

As he walked, Shinto suddenly remembered a visit from a rare visitor while he was recuperating in the ward.

Maybe, it's time to think about what's next.

Gao Yongxia, who was following behind Hong Xiuying, glanced at Shinto thoughtfully, and showed a strange smile.

The author has something to say: I did a stupid, stupid, stupid thing yesterday, and I was so stupid that I always thought about going back and picking up the self who did the stupid thing and beat him up, so as to avoid my stupid behavior.

My heart is stuffed until it bursts.

Probably not for a week...

Why were you so stupid yesterday!

Cough cough cough, today is so short, it is my fault.

Tomorrow night I will complete this chapter with my back on my back.

Big bow! !

I still haven't finished it, it will be finished soon, it's so hard to write...

So I would like to ask you little cuties.

Do you want to finish writing a chapter and then release it, or can you read a little every day, even less than a chapter?

The former or the latter?
