The game continued to move forward in an orderly manner, with each round moving forward with half of the numbers peeling off.

The two groups of AB are like two paths to the peak, Ke Zhiguang passed all the way from the A side to the top, and the bamboo knife forging also lived up to expectations and entered the last level.

As a seeded player who is expected to qualify, of course, you have to score in different groups.

The element of fighting spirit is surging in the streets, squares, and intersections of Tokyo, and every pedestrian feels the faint stimulation invisibly.

Psychological suggestion level fortune is already working.

In the eyes of the people who are hinted, the billboards will be brighter, the desire to consume will be stronger, and the ideas between people will resonate with each other, building this bubble-like dream glass world.

In the blink of an eye, the competition has come to the sixth round, and the number of places in the group is about to be announced.

2→1。

The venue of the competition was held in an office building like the Twin Towers, and the two teams of AB played a game of chess in one building, and the organizers deliberately cleared two spaces for the competition venue.

In front of the logo plastered with sponsors' advertisements, he is sitting across the chessboard from today's opponents.

Today's opponent is called Shuichi Suzuki, who is just over 30 years old, and he is also a strong man who has once sat in the position of a famous general.

Lights fall from the sky, surrounded by improvised broadcast equipment.

Just looking at the appearance of this glamorous building, I really didn't expect that the venue for the competition would be so simple.

It's nothing, except for a few venues that are often used to hold tournaments, most of the venues where chess battles are held are very down-to-earth, which is the norm.

On the chessboard, at the moment when the countdown was about to reach zero, Ke Zhiguang put down the teacup and fell down.

In this last round, there are only 3 rounds of 30 seconds, and you can empty Mikou tea under this high-intensity pressure, but you can exert extremely strong psychological pressure on your opponent.

But the opponent who can play this part is already impeccable in psychological quality, and naturally he will not be shaken by this influence.

Instead, the people in the commentary table wavered.

"W-What? Xinxingjun actually came to such a bite at such a critical juncture, is this an off-the-board move? ”

"It depends on whether he drinks or not, and if he does, he can get a warning sign."

"In that case, you have to apologize to me!"

"Hmph, I've never made a sound, and you don't count making it up by yourself."

"But you're drinking Coke, and Coke has the natural power to distract your opponent! Especially the canopy! ”

"Get out! It's just that you wanted to drink Coke yourself, but forgot to bring it into the show! ”

"No, I'm from Sprite!"

"You ......"

Sitting side by side on the commentary bench are Kuma Sakura and Takami.

Chess matches are often narrated by some popular active chess players, especially this kind of rapid chess match.

In the case of slow chess, there is plenty of time for a professional commentator to analyze the board, lay out a change chart, and sort out the game.

However, in rapid chess, it is often the case that the big chessboard is not as fast as the chess, and in this case the opportunity will be freed up for professional players.

In particular, this kind of compatibility is better, as long as they play together, they will evolve into a duo of cross talk channels, especially female chess players.

After the two of them met in the group stage, it was Yingmei who won the group, but Yingmei was soon sent home by Kejiguang in the next round.

Then he went to the commentary seat and began to help Ke Zhiguang blow nonsense.

After all, boasting about killing their own people is also good for their own face.

Moreover, they and Ke Zhiguang are also friends who have had a common travel experience, and it is reasonable to help blow two sentences.

On the chessboard, the silk strings have been tightened to the extreme, and it has become a favorite dragon slaying battle, with the white chess piece held by Kojimitsu being the hunter's side, and the black chess piece being the hunter by Shuichi Suzuki.

Deal with.

Continuing to circulate ......

Ke Zhiguang leaned forward slightly, and his hands involuntarily moved in his hair.

"Out, appeared! It's the unique thinking action of the new star kun, pulling your hair! ”

"This posture is indeed rare enough, and most people will bite their thumbs at most."

"Mainly because most chess players cherish their hair, right? Otherwise, there is really no hair to pull. ”

"This ...... It seems to be true. ”

"So why can Xinxingjun be so unscrupulous and can't get along with his hair! Is he really not afraid of baldness? He has been pulling his hair for so long, why is his hair still shiny! ”

When the two were complaining, the chess game also came to an end.

Shuichi Suzuki's brows tightened fiercely, but suddenly let go-

With a snap, he pressed the admit in defeat.

Although he can still hold many hands on the bright side, he ...... If you go further, you can only do scene work, so it is better to admit defeat happily.

The referee team was also stunned by this sudden end of the game, as if in some games, they knocked GG directly without breaking all the way.

"Congratulations to Ke Zhiguang for the sixth section and successfully breaking into the final round of this famous battle." The referee announced.

Under the spotlight, the shutter stabbed up, and Ke Zhiguang and the other party were relieved.

"Thanks for the advice, Suzuki-senpai."

"There's a lot to learn." Shuichi Suzuki smiled lightly, "Titles have a natural magic for chess players, especially for those who have won it once, they can't help but want to hit the second time, maybe only by promoting to the eternal title can this desire be relieved." ”

Ke Zhiguang didn't speak, and he didn't know if the other party was sighing for himself, or whether he was blessing or ridiculing the victor as the loser.

In the end, the two shook hands, and Shuichi Suzuki walked straight out of the spotlight.

In another building of the Twin Towers, the game of bamboo knife forging has also entered a tense and pressing closing stage, and both sides of the opponent are secretly shedding cold sweat.

Kuranosuke Naosaka is the narrator of this game.

Because this person blew too much, in order to prevent him from blowing too numb in front of the camera and affecting the audience's viewing experience, he was assigned to the next table.

"Now the difference between one and a half eyes to half a eye, it is expected that the bamboo knife forging will run safely, and there is no danger to win a game of this game, by the way, the table next door has ended, and he really won." Xingcai said in the tone of reading the script.

"Oh? Is it? Kojimitsu, he really ......, "Naosaka Kuranosuke immediately came to the spirit.

"Ahem, please be reserved, and think carefully about why you didn't get to the commentary table over there." Xingcai's tone of reading the script went further.

Naosaka also seemed to be woken up, and he quickly coughed twice to put his demeanor right.

In the countdown of counting seconds again and again, the game of bamboo knife forging also finished the last single official.

"Half a win. Congratulations to the seventh section of the bamboo knife, which successfully broke into the final round of this famous battle. ”

Hearing the news of the victory, the bamboo knife forging finally breathed a sigh of relief.

In this kind of tense competition, there is not much time to count the mesh, and you can only be guided by a strong sense of smell to win and lose, and always put your heart on the high.

It's dangerous.

His way to the cut almost overturned again this time.

It's not that it's in front of you, but it's about the third round of the schedule, and it's almost in the hands of a woman again.

In the second round, Yamaoka successfully lost to Soma Masae and sent her forward for a round.

As a result, she met the bamboo knife forging in the third round.

Originally, when the phobia of women on the chessboard was about to attack, the bamboo knife forging suddenly noticed a little.

- The other party doesn't seem to be the kind of orthodox feminine woman, if she has to say it, she still has a bit of masculinity or even boyfriend power or something......

The phobia of women on the chessboard was suddenly alleviated a lot.

He quickly pulled himself together and finally reversed Soma Masae and brushed shoulders with the overturned.

Otherwise, he would have to be on the joke column between black and white.

At the beginning of the interview session, the focus was all on the winner's side, and the lights on the commentary seat quickly dimmed, indicating that it was time to get off work.

It didn't take long for Xingcai to pack up her things and get up from the commentary table: "Then I'll take my leave first." ”

"Are you going to Kezhiguang?" Naosaka asked.

"Yes, it's still more interesting over there, Alto and Horie seniors are also over there." Constellation admits very dryly.

But to be honest, she and Xiong Yingmei are not that familiar, and now the names of the two of them are reported, which is more or less a smoke bomb.

"Then have fun with your friends...... By the way, in the final part, your parents, the Inoue couple, will be present to act as referees and top hosts. ”

Naosaka's words made Xingcai settle in place: "Father and mother, will you also be there?" ”

"Yes, in major battles like this title, there will be nine dan who will be present to referee and preside, such as the last Nova Wars, it was Xia Fuying...... Although it seems that he is everywhere. ”

Mr. and Mrs. Inoue, also known as the seventeen-dan couple, father Inoue Shomon is nine dans, and mother Inoue Masae is eighth-dan, and the combined rank of the two is just seventeen.

Intermarriage between male and female chess players is the norm, but only the Inoue couple can reach such a high level of husband and wife.

The Inoue sisters, who can be born under such a flickering aura, must also be favored by God, right?

Xingcai nodded: "I know, I will ask my father and mother for peace when the time comes." ”

With that, Starlight quickly left, his heels rattling on the floor.

Looking at her departing back, Naosaka showed some doubts.

- She doesn't seem to have a good relationship with her parents?

On the side of the office building in Group A, Ke Zhiguang had just finished the temporary interview after the game, and a can of Coke was thrown over.

Then he caught it steadily.

"It's worthy of being a new star, and I still have this ability." Xiong Ying showed an expression that you had pretended to be there, and said, "Okay, that can of Coke is yours, hurry up and open it and drink it." ”

This..... Judging from the throwing force of this cola just now, if this is opened directly, it should be sprayed in the face, right?

"I prefer Pepsi to Coca-Cola." Ke Zhiguang managed to find an excuse and put Coca-Cola on the table next to him.

As we all know, Coca-Cola is only used as a toilet cleaner, or as a stepping stone, to help consumers stand taller and get their hands on Pepsi at the top of the cargo shelf.

Knowing that his trick had been discovered, Xiong Yingche pursed his lips: "Cut, I'm not fooled, it's clear that the whole eagle is beautiful, and the whole one is accurate." ”

Yingmei's head jumped: "Okay, stupid bear, just say congratulations and leave, don't talk so much nonsense." ”

"Come on! Kill Ah Forging and Ah Chi, and the next time we meet, I will call you a famous general! Xiong Sakura gave Ke Zhiguang a thumbs up.

Soon she was dragged away by Yingmei, and the two of them left the scene at the speed of light.

Ke Zhiguang gasped lightly, and only then did he feel a sense of relief that the incident had come to an end for the time being.

The time flow of these twelve days and six rounds is quite fast, as if a skillful camera switch, compressed into a moment of memory.

The next cycle will start five days later, deliberately from Friday to Sunday to ensure maximum traffic.

"Okay, let's have another press conference, and I'll be able to hunt for points again......"

Just as he was thinking like this, Xingcai's voice suddenly came from behind him: "The seniors are still as easy as ever, what did you just say about hunting, do you think that Mr. Shuichi Suzuki is not enough to fight?" ”

Well?

Points just took the initiative to come to the door?

"No, I mean uh...... Wait a minute, are you interested in playing chess again, I'll continue to let you have two sons. Ke Zhiguang asked.

"Oh, so I'm the one to hunt?"

"I didn't say that, I just sensed you approaching from behind and spoke with your back in advance."

Inoue has long been accustomed to this kind of serious nonsense, and sighed: "Today is the last bit of my precious weekend, so let me spend it peacefully alone, if you need to play chess, please find Harushima seniors." ”

"She's back?"

"I'll be back in a few days, and the first thing I do when I come back is to explain your celebrity finals."

"Can she go to the commentary seat too?"

"Any questions?"

It always feels like there's something wrong.

But I can't say what the problem is.

"So please make the most of it then, if Harumhima-senpai catches your mistake with the microphone in his hands, her laughter will be heard in half of Japan, and your name will be even louder."

That's right! That's the problem!

"This ...... I think her laughter is getting out, and the embarrassment is probably herself......."

Xingcai nodded suddenly: "That's right, self-explosion has always been her strong point." ”

The auditory hallucinations of "Ah Sneeze" came from Ke Zhiguang's ears again.

Xingcai chatted with Ke Zhiguang for a while, and the content was the same as in the past, bringing it to work and study, and occasionally mentioning the shepherd dog of the Harushima family.

"Then I'll go first, it's not too early." Starlight gets up from the couch.

Her gaze suddenly fell on the Coke can on the table.

She didn't see Ke Zhiguang drinking Coke much, and she often saw him drinking coffee or hot chocolate, which was most likely given to Ke Zhiguang by a staff member out of a set.

"Anyway, seniors, you probably don't drink this, so it's better to give it to me." A mischievous smile suddenly appeared on the corner of Xingcai's mouth, and her fingers climbed onto the tab of Coke.

Well, there will always be a moment or two when you want to skin it.

What's more, everyone is an adult, and it's not a big deal to listen to Coke or something.

"Huh?" Ke Zhiguang didn't react at the first time.

In such a moment, Xingcai's fingers lightly exerted force.

Click.

The tab is pulled apart.

Zizizizizi! Coke ejaculated.

Unsuspecting, she was smacked in the face.

The smile faded away.

The action also froze, and only the Coke in her hand was still bubbling out of the whole picture.

"Senior, can you explain?" Xingcai raised a resentful look at Ke Zhiguang, and there were black droplets of Coke on her eyelashes.

"This ...... This is a Coke given to me by my black fans. In a sense, this is true.

One thing to say, it's quite refreshing to see this kind of person who plans to skin it to be caught in the trap.

After this, Constellation angrily accepted the game, and all the last serenity on Sunday was thrown aside.

As a result, he was fucked again......

Points, +80.

And just like that, five days passed quickly.

The finals have arrived.

That morning, a special car stopped at the gate of Taohuazhai, which was a special car that took Ke Zhiguang to the competition venue.

Under the gaze of most of the Taohuazhai Taoist friends, Ke Zhiguang stepped into the car door.

Fast forward to the finals.
