Chapter 65 · The castle tower
The second day of the rain and sunny days came, and the smoke of yesterday was gone.
Sleep until noon, and the Harushima deer will wake up naturally.
"Well, I'm hungry......" she yawned in a daze.
Today's temperature was very warm, so it didn't take much effort for her to get out of the bed, and go to the living room in a red panda pajama to see if Xingcai had left lunch when she went out this morning.
As soon as the front foot entered the living room, the back foot could not move, and the whole person was not sleepy in an instant.
His expression began to gradually start, or rather wake up.
It's Monday, and it stands to reason that Xingcai should still be in school right now, but at the moment she is lying on the couch and falling asleep.
The focus is ......
- What kind of trouble do you want to make in this uniform that has been dancing in a nightclub all night?
As a three-good girl with an aesthetic bias towards sub-supply, she has a feeling that she can't bear to look at directly.
"You...... You okay? Harushima deer approached cautiously.
Xingcai also sobered up a little at this time: "Sunny Island senior......"
As soon as he approached, Harushima Deer also smelled some alcohol.
This......
Sunny Island Deer Brain makes up some plots.
"Quick! Tell me, which bastard did it! Harushima asked awe-inspiring and righteous, expressing great concern about Starter's situation at the moment.
"Huh?" Xingcai was stunned.
"Damn, he actually did this kind of poison to our family's Xingcai, if I caught him, I would definitely raise his ashes!" Harushima deer made an indignant action to shovel the ashes.
"Do you want to call the police? Wait, think about it, this matter seems to be related to your external reputation, and it is not advisable to be too extensive...... Then just a tooth for a tooth, I'm calling someone now! ”
Harushima Deer decisively came to the phone and took out the number book that recorded the acquaintance.
flipped through it and found that with his own interpersonal relationships, he didn't seem to be able to shake any powerful thugs......
"No matter, shake Ke Zhiguang over first, although I haven't seen him fight, he always gives people a feeling that his force is not low." So Harushima Deer decisively dialed Kojimitsu's number.
"Wait, wait, wait! I didn't become a stumbling girl! Looking at the other party's series of bewildering behaviors, Xingcai was suddenly scared to sober.
After yesterday's all was over, he and Kojimitsu symbolically went to an occasional izakaya and sat down before returning.
Due to the effect of loading the Empress Pool, she confidently rejected Ke Zhiguang's kindness to send her upstairs, saying that she was now sober.
As a result, as soon as she got home, the effect of the Empress Pool began to fade, and the whole person fell directly on the sofa.
Looking back now, 10,000 things happened yesterday, like watching an entire season of anime overnight.
In a state of 100 percent clarity and calmness, she ...... Enlistment was proposed.
Ke Zhiguang also agreed.
This......
"Uh-uh, yes, what the hell did I do yesterday." Xingcai frowned and cupped her forehead.
I wish I could rewind it now, and knock myself out before I was about to make this request.
The most nonsense thing is that Ke Zhiguang actually agreed......
I just had to force myself to get on the thief ship.
But I really want to join the team.
Strange contradictions fermented in her heart.
Seeing that Xingcai suddenly got up, Harushima Deer was vigilant again: "Sure enough, what happened yesterday!" Tell me who that bastard is! Also, it is necessary to go to the hospital for a check-up and be careful not to be infected by the disease! ”
"Stop! Stop! Stop! Xingcai compared the actions of the three traffic police officers to stop the car, and said slowly, "Yesterday's incident is like this......"
A description probably made Harushima Deer understand the current situation.
She was dumbfounded.
"You're about to become our Dragonseat teammate?"
"Poor...... That's pretty much it, and of course I won't force it if others don't agree. Xingcai nodded sincerely.
Harushima Deer's mouth was still wide open, and he couldn't say a word.
At this time, the phone call that was dialed not long ago finally echoed at the last second: "Moxi Moxi? Is it Haruhi Island? Find me at noon, what's the matter? ”
"So that bastard is you!" Harushima grabbed the phone, and the hungry dragon roared.
.......
.......
Half an hour later, the three met in the dining room.
The atmosphere was slightly awkward, and there was a feeling of being invited by a teacher.
"That's pretty much it, it was she who won this place in the team from me through her own strength." Ke Zhiguang said calmly, still mitting the juice he had just ordered.
Harushima Lu thought for a long time before he spoke uncertainly: "In other words, you have encountered strange things recently, and then the key solution point of this incident is on Xingcai's side, right?" ”
"That's pretty much."
Harushima continued to nod and replied, "Defeated myself in a perfect state...... Is this really possible? ”
"It's because it's unlikely, so I agreed." Ke Zhiguang said.
When he was waiting under the cruise ship last night, he had been wondering whether to agree or not to say yes or not if she continued to say that she wanted to join the team after Xingcai won the game.
In the end, he didn't come up with a result, but in the face of Xingcai's solemn and calm request, he agreed with his instinct at that moment.
His intuition told him that she wouldn't let herself down.
And from a rational point of view, after a person wins the battle of the Tribulation, his chess power often ushers in a period of soaring.
If you take advantage of this period of ascension, you may be able to really hold up your hard power to a sufficient height.
By the way, Xingcai's points have now risen to 96 points.
It seems that the bond value has become higher.
Harushima deer asked Xiang Xingcai, "What about you?" Do you really want to participate in the Battle of the Dragons, with your daddy...... Do you have a fight? ”
Harushima Ka stared directly into the other's evasive eyes.
Xingcai lowered her head and took a long test, as if she was thinking about the solution to the contradiction in her heart.
In the end, she nodded.
"Well, I'm going to participate for three reasons, and although I was able to beat my perfect self yesterday mainly because of the strange hot springs, I don't have any anxiety anymore, so I'm confident that I can keep this perfect form until the day of the race."
"The second reason is that I have studied my father's chess very deeply, and I think if I can really play against him at that time, I will have an additional advantage."
It took her a long time before she came up with a third reason: "Finally, I have already made a provocative statement to my father, if I walk away like this now, I will forever lose the opportunity to look up in front of him, so, please, I will do my best for the next period of time." ”
Xingcai bowed her head deeply to Harujima, each syllable imbued with determination.
Harushima Deer couldn't refuse for a while, so he glanced at Ke Zhiguang dryly, hoping to give him an approval.
Ke Zhiguang shrugged his shoulders.
In the end, Harushima Deer also nodded: "No way, I'll just promise first, but I'll always be ready to give you the exam, if you can't pass, be ready to pack your bags and get off the boat, understand?" ”
"Understood."
"You have to work hard, and if you don't meet your training goals, you're not allowed to eat or sleep! Still..... And the board! ”
Not..... It's a bit too much.
But if the side that hits the board is Harushima deer, it won't be anything, and it is probably the kind of strength that kindergarten teachers teach children.
"Understand ......"
"Well, that's good, so ...... That's not right! Even if the two of us agree, what if he doesn't agree to the bamboo knife? ”
"This is easy to do, just let Inoue have a game with him, as we all know, Brother Forging can't win against women, and his game with Soma almost overturned." Ke Zhiguang said seriously.
Qingdao Lu choked, and after thinking about it carefully, the news that the bamboo knife forged could not win the woman was revealed to Ke Zhiguang by herself.
"But、But Soma Yajiang is a lot stronger than Xingcai, isn't she?" Harushima Deer still retorted vigorously.
"But Inoue is more like a girl than Soma."
"Okay, I can't argue with you......." Harushima deer softened.
- Wait, how many people did you hack in what you said!
"Just kidding, I think Inoue should be no weaker than Soma after yesterday's battle." Ke Zhiguang said.
In summary, there is a high probability that it will be unanimously passed.
Harushima deer sighed weakly, always feeling that things were a little magical.
To be reasonable, she was also the other party's teacher during the period when Xingcai was preparing for the fixed-stage competition.
And then one is not paying attention, and she becomes a teammate.
"And what about the last teammate? Or is it a star marriage? Harushima asked.
"It's basically decided, maybe the sisters are superimposed together, and they can produce a bond bonus?"
"Hehe."
Harushima deer continued to be tired.
If you think about it carefully, there is actually no harm, although your own configuration has a feeling of shifting from a galaxy battleship to a grass platform, but if you team up together, it should be much easier.
At least don't worry about pit teammates, they are all their own people, who follows whom.
As Ke Zhiguang said, sometimes, as long as you need to relax, you can reach a stronger state.
"Then it's decided, when are we going to bring the star over?" Harushima deer cheered up.
"We can leave tomorrow, and we can organize a group to pick her up then."
The latest treasure map, the coordinates are in the Inoue Shrine, this is a must-see location.
However, speaking of which, Brother Forging most likely did not agree to Xing marrying into the team.
It's okay, just let him be hammered twice in a row when the time comes, and contribute to the material for jokes in the chess world.
After setting up the team events, we can finally have a pleasant lunch – but no.
As soon as the chopsticks were raised, the door of the restaurant was pushed open, and a deafening sound of leather shoes came, making Ke Zhiguang suddenly stop the movement in his hand.
The hunch is not very good.
It was a young man in a dull gray suit, with a gentle smile like a butler.
He came to the table and said politely, "Kojiko 8th Dan, Mr. Mijo would like to see you." ”
The temperature, which had just warmed up, suddenly dropped at this moment, and both Harushima Deer and Xingcai showed a brief surprise.
At this time, Ke Zhiguang finally recognized the young man's face.
The butler of Imperial City Chess, that's what everyone calls him.
"Eight dans?" Ke Zhiguang asked in a roundabout way.
"You've won the title of Famous Battle, and you've been promoted to the eighth dan."
As he spoke, the other party lifted his shirt and placed a rank certificate in front of Ke Zhiguang.
It's really true, his eight-stage certificate, next to the office seal of Yucheng Qi, without this seal, this certificate has no validity.
Whether it's the regularity of the open side or the fortune of the secret.
"Yucheng Chess is looking for me now, what's the matter?" Ke Zhiguang continued to ask.
"You can be said to be the hottest newcomer in the chess world lately, and Mr. Mijo has come to you for many reasons, depending on which one you want to hear." The butler replied with a smile.
That's right, he wants to find himself, and he doesn't need a reason at all.
Ke Zhiguang took the certificate and handed it to Harushima Deer next to him.
"Get it for me, I'll go and I'll be back." Ke Zhiguang followed and got up.
Presumably, it should not be an accident that the other party chose to ask to see him at this time.
It was probably because he was known about his visit to the cruise ship with Xingcai last night, which aroused the interest of the night god Kunijing.
As for why this person can accurately lock his coordinates at the moment, it can probably only be explained that this is people's hands and eyes.
One wave has just flattened, and another wave has risen.
Climb aboard the black limousine parked in front of the restaurant and drive all the way to Gojo's mansion.
Located in the center of Minato, in a high-rise office building, the top floor is his residence.
In the eyes of many outsiders, people who have played chess to the extreme will be more or less stained with some antiquity, and most of them will choose a Japanese-style garden for their residence, just like Xuanyu Zhishang.
In fact, the opposite is true, the person at the top of the chess world has set up his residence in the central area of the city, and only one bend down can see the endless flow of streets.
The elevator carries the light layer by layer, and the pressure value is gradually rising.
There is a behemoth that is entrenched on the ground floor of this building.
With a ding, the elevator reached the top floor.
The moment the door was opened, Kojimitsu's entire field of vision was filled with all kinds of strange displays.
The calligraphy paintings on the walls, the porcelain vases on the tabletops, and even the chandeliers hanging from the dome all give a positive effect.
Health, luck, recovery, and even the improvement of charisma are violently stacked up like swiping data.
It's almost a paradise-like place.
...... who live here Is it really human?
"Finally able to meet officially, Ke Zhiguang, what do you say?" A low, majestic voice came from the floor-to-ceiling window at the end of the room.
Night God Kunijing, he just stood there, looking down at the street, still wearing a white suit, no matter how he looked at it, he was a perfect man.
"I don't know what happened to me this time?" Ke Zhiguang asked.
"I already know the team members you've chosen, and I have to say, quite a bold choice." The Night God Kunikyo said, and he turned his head and looked at Ke Zhiguang.
Ke Zhiguang's pupils dilated slightly, revealing a little surprise.
The points on the night god Kunikyo...... It's actually negative.
- 666 points.
It turns out that this thing is not a 100-point system.
There was a black flame burning on the numbers.
And the number 666, in Western culture, seems to refer to the devil, right?
