Last night, Kazuto Yuyama had tactfully expressed to Nibutani's father his intention to keep his distance. Kazuto Yuyama felt that as long as the other party was not the particularly slow-witted type, he should be able to understand what he meant.
Through yesterday's observations, Yushan Kazuto felt that although Nibutani's father seemed a little careless, he was actually very thoughtful.
This can be seen from the other party's nostalgia for his old friend.
Although at the end, Kazuto Hayama didn't know who the old friend of Nibutani's father was, but from the emotions expressed by the other party, Kazuto Hayama could roughly guess the ending of that old friend.
Yushan Kazuto didn't believe that a person with such delicate emotions couldn't feel the implicit meaning of his own words.
Therefore, Yushan Kazuto felt that the probability of Doma Yui seeing Nibutani Morika at the chess institute today, or even in the future, was very low.
After thinking for a while, Yushan Heren said, "Since you want to go together, let's go together."
Upon hearing this, Tsuchiya stood up and looked at Yushan Kazuto, as if urging Yushan Kazuto to set off quickly.
Yushan Kazuto couldn't help but look at Doma Mai. The two of them just stood in the hall, looking at each other in confusion.
"Didn't the scumbag senior say he was leaving?" Tsuchima couldn't help but say.
"Yes." Yushan Kazuto nodded.
"But before you go, are you sure you don't need to wear a pair of socks?"
After hearing this, Tsuchima finally realized that she had gone to the bathroom, changed her socks, and had not put on new socks yet!
"Wait a moment, you scumbag senior." said Domama's cheeks turning slightly red.
However, Yushan Kazuto nodded and watched Doma Mei walk into the room.
More than a minute later, Tsuchima Mai walked out of the room wearing a pair of white over-the-knee socks.
"Why did it change color?" After looking at Tsuchima Yui, Yushan Kazuto couldn't help but ask.
"After you buy it, you have to wear it." Doma Mai pouted and said.
One reason why she doesn't like to wear white over-the-knee socks is because they get dirty easily.
But I only need to go to the chess academy tonight. I have to take a shower after I come back and change my socks again, so I don’t have to worry about getting them dirty.
After taking a look at Tujianma, Yushan Kazuto could only shrug.
He shrugged and walked towards the door.
On the other side, Tsuchima Mai blinked her beautiful eyes slightly, and it was unknown what she was thinking.
Seeing Yushan and others walking to the door, Domama Mei came to her senses and walked quickly towards the door.
……
"Sister Mai, why didn't you come yesterday?" In the hall of the chess academy, looking at Doma Mai who came again today, Mizukoshi Mio couldn't help but ask curiously.
"I was feeling a little unwell yesterday, so I didn't come." Upon hearing this, Tsuchima Mai couldn't help but reveal a beautiful smile, and even the words she said added three points of credibility.
"Are you feeling unwell? What's wrong? Do you have a cold?" Mizukoshi Mio couldn't help but ask with some concern.
"It's not a cold, it's just that I used up too much energy in the physical education class the day before yesterday." Doma Mai continued with a smile.
To be honest, seeing that Mizukoshi Mio cared about her so much, Doma Mai was a little touched.
"What? It's just a physical education class." Upon hearing this, Mizukoshi Mio became a little disdainful.
"That must be because you didn't exercise well. It's just a physical education class, but you have to rest for a whole day."
Hearing this, Tsuchima Mei's smile became a little stiff. She really wanted Mizukoshi Mio to return the emotion she had just felt for her.
Chapter 2313: Troublesome Opponent
"Look at me, Sister Buried. I went to the karate class this afternoon and I'm still full of energy!"
As she spoke, Mizukoshi Mio performed a few karate moves, causing Doma Mai to have no choice but to give an awkward but polite smile.
Although she really wanted to refute a few words, firstly, the other party was a child and Tsuchima was embarrassed to say much. Secondly, in terms of physical strength, she might not be able to compare with Mizukoshi Mio.
No, she definitely can't win. After all, Doma Mai knows that in school, Mizukoshi Mio's sports performance has always been among the top in the grade.
Although Yui Doma is not bad in sports, her talent in sports is obviously not in physical strength.
On the other side, watching the exchange between Mizukoshi Mio and Tsuchima Mai, Sadano Ayano couldn't stand it any longer: "Mio, stop talking! Can't you see? Mai is just making excuses."
Hearing this, Tsuchiya couldn't help but blink slightly. It felt like the more she explained, the worse it got.
"Hey, sister Mai, so what you said just now was a lie to me?" On the other side, Mizukoshi Mio couldn't help but blink and stared at Tsuchima Mai.
Seeing Mizukoshi Mio's stubborn look, Sadano Ayano could only pull her over and whispered, "Mio, don't you understand? Sister Mei has a secret that cannot be told, so she cannot speak it out."
On the other side, Tsuchiya couldn't help but blink slightly.
[When you two were talking behind my back, could you please move a little further away? I could hear every word clearly! ]
"What's the unspeakable secret?" On the other side, Mizukoshi Mio couldn't help but blink.
"As girls grow up, they will feel uncomfortable for a few days every month." After thinking for a while, Sadano Ayano said.
Compared to Mizukoshi Mio who is heartless, Sadato Ayano knows a little more.
"Huh? Really? Why is being a girl so troublesome?" Mizukoshi Mio asked with some doubt.
"Sister Mio, do you want to become a boy?" On the other side, Charlotte couldn't help but ask when she heard Mio Mio's loud voice.
"That's not the case." Upon hearing this, Mizukoshi Mio shook her head.
Although she felt a little unhappy about feeling uncomfortable for a few days every month, Mizukoshi Mio had never considered becoming a boy.
Not far away, listening to the conversation between Mizukoshi Mio and the other two, Doma Mai couldn't help but blink slightly. She didn't expect that Sadato Ayano actually thought that she didn't come yesterday because of physiological reasons.
However, looking at the discussion of the three people, Tsuchima Mai had no intention of explaining. If she explained, it would only make the situation worse, so she decided to just pretend that she heard nothing.
Just as several people were discussing, half past six quietly arrived, and the game between Yushan and others officially began.
At first, the three of them were a little slow to react, but when their eyes swept across the broadcast screen, they all stopped the current topic at the same time and watched the game between Yushan and others intently.
Although the game between Yushan and others was still difficult for the three to understand, they would watch it very seriously every time.
This made Tsuchiya feel a little ashamed.
She was also watching the game between Yushan and Ren, but she often looked at the broadcast for a while and then looked at her phone for a while.
After all, Doma Yui knows nothing about shogi. Although Yuyama Kazuto had taught her some basic knowledge of shogi before, up to now, Doma Yui's understanding of shogi is limited to knowing how to move various chess pieces.
……
In the chess room.
Looking at the chess player on the opposite side who was lost in thought, Yushan Kazuto couldn't help but sigh. It seemed that tonight would be another protracted battle.
I have seen opponents who think carefully, but this is the first time I have seen one who starts thinking for a long time from the seventh move.
If it wasn't for the fact that the other party was indeed lost in thought from his expression, Yushan and others would have suspected that he was deliberately delaying his time just like last week.
Yushan and Ren were really confused. They had only made a few moves, so what was there to ponder about?
However, the other party also had something to say. After all, he was facing Yushan Kazuto. Just hearing this name was enough to bring enough pressure to people, so it would not be excessive to be cautious.
He is also a young chess player, only 2 years old, and he was able to advance from C1 to C thanks to his extraordinary prudence.
However, this caution did somewhat constrain the opponent, because he often had to think deeply and for a long time, and his playing time was always insufficient.
This resulted in him inevitably collapsing many times when the game time ran out and he entered the mandatory "one-point shogi" or "thirty-second shogi".
Sometimes, even after entering "One Point Shogi" or "Thirty Seconds Shogi", he would still fall into deep thought.
After the extra time is exhausted, the chess player will be directly judged as the loser. He has suffered such a loss many times.
Before entering the chess room, Kong Yinzi introduced each other to Yushan Kazuto.
Before, when Kong Yinzi was in group C1, he had played against the opponent once, and the game lasted until late at night.
Before Yushan Heren entered the chess room, he had already made some mental preparations, but the current situation was still somewhat beyond his expectations.
Regarding this, Yushan Heren couldn't help but feel a little headache.
On the one hand, he admired the other party's seriousness and devotion to the game, but on the other hand, Yushan Kazuto was also troubled by the other party's caution.
Sit in your seat
, I took a sip of tea, the tea flavor was quite strong, but it was a pity that it was not iced.
Looking at the situation in front of him, Yushan Heren was also thinking deeply about how to make the other party recover from his contemplative state.
……
At half past nine in the evening, Yushan Kazuto and Kong Ginko both walked out of the chess room.
It was quite a coincidence today that after Kong Yinzi's game ended, Yushan and Ren's game also ended very quickly.
Looking at Yushan Kazuto who stood up with her, Kong Yinzi still felt a little unbelievable. She didn't expect that the game between Yushan Kazuto would end so quickly.
You know, Kong Yinzi still has some understanding of Yushan Heren's opponent. After all, he has played against him before, and Kong Yinzi has also collected some information about him.
According to the information, the opponent does not have any specific chess moves that he is good at, and his only characteristic is that he is slow.
According to statistics from the chess academy, the average time consumed by the opponent each time he plays chess is 87 percent.
That is to say, in a ranking match, out of six hours of play time, the opponent can use at least five hours on average.
The last time Kong Yinzi played against his opponent, he also felt this deeply. In that ranking battle, the opponent spent four hours and fifty-two minutes, slightly less than five hours.
However, today's game has only lasted for three hours.
Chapter 2314: Trick
Of course, the time spent by Yushan and his opponent can be ignored, but even if the three hours are fully counted as the time Yushan and his opponent played chess, it is still surprising enough.
Since his opponent became a professional chess player, he has played only a handful of games in which the game lasted less than three hours.
Moreover, the stronger the opponent's chess skills, the more cautious the opponent will be in making his moves.
For example, when facing several title holders before, two-thirds of the games were lost due to timeout.
Today, when facing Yushan Kazuto, the game lasted less than three hours, which surprised Kong Yinzi.
Originally, Kong Yinzi had already prepared to wait for Yushan Heren in the hall for at least two or three hours, but she didn't expect that when she stood up, she saw Yushan Heren standing up with her.
"A little bit, I used a little trick." After thinking about it, Yushan Heren said.
"Trick?" Kong Yinzi couldn't help but look at Yushan and others.
"I deliberately exposed a few flaws to make him think he had an opportunity to take advantage of, and then..." Yushan Heren shrugged.
Upon hearing this, Kong Yinzi gave Yushanheren a sidelong glance. This method was too risky. Although Yushanheren could control the situation, it was obvious that Yushanheren could play more steadily and there was no need to take any unconventional measures.
In response to Kong Yinzi's gaze, Yushan Kazuto could only respond with an apologetic look.
If it was a normal game, it would definitely not end so early.
Even though Yushan and others deliberately exposed their flaws, the other party took nearly half an hour to think before finally taking the bait.
Yushan Kazuto had no doubt that if he didn't reveal his weakness to his opponent, the game would probably have to continue until tomorrow.
After all, the game starts at 6:30 in the evening, and each person has six hours to play.
If the opponent uses up his chess-playing time, it will be 12:30 . the next day.
"Is everything going smoothly with the silver?" asked Yushan Heren.
Hearing this, Kong Yinzi nodded. During the game today, Kong Yinzi discovered that the routine used by the opponent was very similar to the routine that Kong Yinzi had practiced using the software this morning.
After the morning training, Kong Yinzi was already familiar with the solution to this routine. The entire game, from the moment Kong Yinzi realized the routine used by the opponent, was firmly in Kong Yinzi's hands.
Otherwise, if you want to defeat the opponent without any bloodshed without realizing the opponent's tactics, you will probably have to put in some effort.
As they chatted, they walked into the hall unknowingly.
Looking at the people including Tsuchima Yui who were coming towards them, Yushan Kazuto and Sora Ginko immediately closed their mouths tacitly and walked towards them silently.
……
"Xiao Ai, where did you go just now? Why didn't I see you for a long time? Did you go to be a timekeeper again?" After sitting in the car, Doma Mai looked at Hinazuru Ai and asked.
Originally in the chess academy, Doma Mai had looked everywhere for Hinazuru Ai, but after searching for a long time, she still couldn't find her.
Doma Mai also asked Mio Miukoshi and others. Mio Miukoshi and Charlotte obviously didn't know where Hinazuru Ai had gone. Sadato Ayano seemed to know something, but she didn't say anything.
Tsuchima Mai couldn't help but wonder if Hinazuru Ai didn't come this week because of something. But when she was about to go home in the evening, she suddenly appeared again, leaving Tsuchima Mai a little confused.
