"The Japanese chess academy is really stingy, why don't the family members send invitations, let me go and see what about the chess ceremony?" Xie Yiyu was angry, eating tofu, and said angrily: "That nerd can go, I want to go too." ”

"Nerd?" Sun Suhe asked, "Who is the nerd?" Did he also enter the Kyoto Imperial Palace that day?"

"Ahh Xie Yi subconsciously covered his mouth, and then coughed twice: "Nerd, nerd is nerd, it's Nie Xinguang, I don't know if you have heard his name, this chess ceremony, he was selected to play the first few moves of chess with Inoue Jiudan." Xie Yi's eyes were uncertain when he spoke, pretending to be frank and at the same time he could not hide the shyness of accidentally revealing the little secret in his heart.

Sun Suhe was immediately refreshed when he heard Nie Xinguang's name, of course he knew this person, and there were many pages in the Zhulin report mentioning him, this rising star in the limelight was selected to participate in the opening ceremony as a representative of the new generation of chess players, which is really a key figure of deep symbolic significance.

"Nie Xinguang, are you familiar with each other?"

"Well, who knows him well. Xie Yi pursed his lips, "It's the first time I've seen that guy when I came with the group this time." ”

"Is that so, then why do you call him a nerd, and he still feels very intimate?"

Xie Yi was drinking milk, and when he heard this, he immediately choked: "What kind of intimacy, how can there be! It's just that we often play online chess together." I've played 759 rounds with him online, hum, I'm sorry, I've won 380 games so far, a small win over him. Xie Yi casually said that it was a single-digit accurate record of victory and defeat, and he obviously cared about it very much in his heart.

She continued: "The name of my online chess account is a string of random gibberish, the avatar is a little monkey, that guy thinks I am a nine-dan trumpet, I came over to set it almost familiarly, and called me senior brother without authorization, then I will call him Bajie, he is not happy, there is no way, I can only reluctantly call him a fool." ”

"Haha. Sun Suhe smiled: "Was he shocked when he knew that you were the senior brother?"

"He didn't know it was me. ”

"Didn't you tell him?"

"Why should I pay attention to him, he is the stars holding the moon, I am just a family member, and I am not familiar with him. Xie Yi snorted: "When I meet him in the official competition, see if I don't kill him to cry, and then I will reluctantly comfort this nerd as a senior brother, that's about the same." ”

Xie Yi said viciously, but the corners of his mouth unconsciously raised slightly. She didn't know that Nie Xinguang was also on the missing list, and her life and death were unknown at this time, and the situation was worrying. Sun Suhe looked at the expectant light in Xie Yi's eyes, and his heart suddenly felt gloomy. He lowered his head and ate a few bites of almond tofu, silently adjusted his mood, smiled and continued to ask, "Didn't you go to the chess ceremony the next day, did you stay in the hotel all the time?"

"Well, I think about it, that morning, after breakfast, I went back to my room to play online chess with the Yan Maniac on the number of the mysterious people, but because it was a new account, the level was still low, and all I encountered were messy low-handed, I killed all the time, although I kept winning, but I felt a little bored, and I went out shopping to see the scenery by myself in the afternoon. ”

"Are you alone?"

"Yes, everyone else is busy, but I, the family member, is the most busy. Xie Yi laughed at himself: "Anyway, if you have a mobile phone navigation, you won't get lost, and before I came to Japan, I asked the boss I knew to play chess to help me change a lot of yen, my father often said that if you have money, you will be strong, hehe, this is really true." ”

"The elders have some experience to say, and it is indeed very reasonable. By the way, when did the chess players who participated in the opening ceremony come back, do you remember? Did your uncle Gu tell you about the opening ceremony during the day? Do you have any exclusive gossip? Eh, don't hide your secrets, share it. Sun Suhe tried to maintain a relaxed atmosphere while eager to dig up more first-hand information.

This person is really good gossip, Xie Yi thought to himself. She recalled: "It was already dark when I returned to the hotel, and I had planned to have dinner with Uncle Gu, but they all gathered in a makeshift conference room for a group study meeting. The team leader aunt asked me not to disturb them, and asked me to accompany her to go shopping, by the way, we also went to a famous old store to eat soup tofu, the taste is really good, and the appearance has nothing to say, it is beautiful and delicious, I went to eat it again later. ”

Sun Suhe thought to himself that if what Xie Yi said was true, then on November 11, the first day of the chess ceremony, the chess players of the Chinese Chess Academy were able to return to the hotel normally after entering the Kyoto Imperial Palace, and did not disappear. This is undoubtedly a very valuable piece of information. Although Xie Yi is a layman, what she sees and hears may not be true, but even so, it is still very valuable to study the details of what she has seen and heard.

Sun Suhe asked carefully: "How did you know that the chess players are holding a group study meeting in the temporary conference room?"

Xie Yi didn't know the mystery of Sun Suhe's words, she only felt that this was a strange question, she frowned: "How do you know? Of course I saw it with my own eyes." They were surrounded there on three floors and three floors outside, and there were many people who kept smoking, making the whole room look like Taishang Laojun's alchemy furnace, I finally found Uncle Gu, and I was choked with tears as soon as I said hello. ”

Xie Yi rubbed his nose: "I really don't understand what cigarettes are good to smoke." In fact, even if the team leader aunt doesn't pull me to go shopping, I have to hurry up as the best policy, I can't stand it just by standing next to me, they still smoke, it's really ......"

"Secondhand smoke is really annoying, and I can't stand it. Sun Suhe rubbed his nose: "But, aren't you curious about what they got together to study?"

"Hey. Xie Yi smiled: "I was also worried, but I couldn't stand the smell of smoke, and I was curious about what good things they were studying." I later asked the team leader's aunt and said that they got together to study the game of chess that had been played halfway through the day's opening ceremony. ”

"Why, aren't you interested? The people who participated in that game were the best players in the world. Sun Suhe asked while observing Xie Yi's expression.

Xie Yi ate mapo tofu and said with a smile: "If it's a serious game, of course you have to watch it, even chess, forget it." As you know, this kind of chess is mainly performance-based, and a hundred games may not necessarily lead to a good game. ”

"What do you mean by that?" asked Sun Suhe. He only knew the rules of Lianqi, and he didn't pay much attention to it, and he didn't really play it.

"What do you say?" Xie Yi frowned slightly: "Isn't this a matter of course? Why do you keep asking such strange questions...... Ah, I'm sorry......"

"Ahaha. Sun Suhe smiled to hide his embarrassment, and picked up the milk to help Xie Yi refill.

Xie Yi groaned: "I want to think about it, what should I say, seek ...... Scheme...... The crowd ......"

"It's up to everyone?"

"Yes, it is not up to everyone. Oops, I know, I'm almost there. Shay muttered quietly.

"Haha. Sun Suhe couldn't help but smile softly.

"I was really close to it. ”

"Okay, I believe you, blame me for being too talkative, next time any guy talks more, I'll help you beat him. Sun Suhe joked with his fist.

Xie Yi pursed his lips, glanced at Sun Suhe, and muttered in a low voice: "I really know." Don't treat me like a child. She helplessly held the cup with both hands, took a big sip of milk, then coughed twice, considered the wording, and began to say slowly and seriously: "Like this kind of chess, you make the next move, he takes one hand, and the others continue the hand...... Some chess players are steady, just seeking not to play stinky chess that is ridiculed by others, and often make a steady move, not seeking merit, but seeking no fault. Some chess players are full of morale, want to express themselves, take the lead, and often make a move to seek new and change. These are quite normal. With so many chess players with different styles and different ideas taking turns to hold the chess pieces of one color, unless there is a very special situation, the whole game must be fragmented, and there is almost no value to see. ”

Xie Yi continued: "So I heard that they got together to discuss Lianqi, so I was not interested at all, when playing Lianqi, many times the chess players did not even take winning as the first purpose, it is estimated that they just got together to discuss how to play their own style within one or two hands, play a little more handsome, it is really not interesting for others, anyway, my family can't play." In fact, not to mention that so many people take turns to play chess, even the common two-on-two mixed chess in exhibition matches is often played in a mess. Aren't you a professional agent? I'm sure you've watched these exhibition matches, so why don't you know?"

Sun Suhe knew where he was cowardly, he was ashamed in his heart, and smiled cheekily: "I thought that as long as we were low-handed, the top masters would have a tacit understanding unique to masters." ”

Xie Yi waved his hand: "It's the same, it's all the same." Unless, unless there is really some inexplicable and wonderful fate, everyone tacitly agrees to play two good chess? haha, I said casually, this probability is probably smaller than the draw of the Three Tribulations. ”

Inexplicable fate? It may not be impossible. Sun Suhe secretly thought in his heart, this game of chess was by no means as simple as Xie Yi thought.
