Chess Soul's childhood sweetheart

Chapter 263 Mizoguchi Ninth Stage
Fujiwara Shizuo didn't know why Shinto Hikaru came, nor what she did when she came.It seemed that he was just preparing to sleep under the quilt and said he wanted to leave.

Of course, Shindo Hikaru's request, he will not refuse.

However, as soon as they got home, they received a call from Fujiwara Miyuki.

"Oh? Really? Second Uncle's condition is much better. He was supposed to come back at the end of February, but now he can come back at the end of January?"

"I don't know what happened, but the person said that Zuo Wei's condition suddenly improved a lot, and he can come back to recuperate earlier."

Shizuo Fujiwara recounted what happened to Fujimitsu before, and there was a long silence on the other end of the phone.

If it wasn't for the slight breathing sound, Shizuo Fujiwara would have thought it was a bad signal over there.

"No matter what, take good care of Xiaoguang."

"I know, I will take good care of her."

Taya Ryo didn't know all this, in his opinion, Shindo Hikari seemed to be more energetic than before.

However, when resting, she would still sleep, only this time her posture changed.

"Shinto, why is your resting posture a bit like a monk meditating?"

Hikaru Shindo squinted his eyes halfway, and said weakly: "It's a monk who meditates originally, and this position is more comfortable."

"Ah, is this comfortable?"

Hikaru Shinto sat cross-legged, with his hands naturally placed on his knees, palms facing up, leaning against the wall, breathing very evenly.

Some chess players looked at Shinto Hikaru, and they all gathered together to discuss in a low voice,

"Is that her?"

"In the first round of preliminaries, it was a complete victory."

"is it?"

"That's because I haven't met a master player. It seems to be very lucky. All I met were players of [-]th dan or below."

"No wonder, she can enter the second round so easily."

"However, you can't underestimate her, after all, she's only in the second stage."

"During the Beidou Cup, she was still the main general, even more powerful than Taya Ryo."

"Taya Ryo, that's right, he even made it to the round robin once."

"Oh, that's right, don't underestimate it."

A deeper voice joined them, "My opponent this time is her."

"Well, how is her chess skill?"

Before the man could answer, he heard the prompt to continue the game.

The second round of the competition is different from the first round. The players in the competition will have a special recorder in a specific game room to record the time and position.

"I'm really not used to it. When playing chess, someone else records the time and the order of moves."

Ta Yaliang said: "I'll get used to it slowly, it's always like this in formal games."

"Oh, I see." Shindo Hikari asked when he stood up, "Ryo, who is your opponent today?"

"Kimura Seventh Dan."

A flash in Shinto's mind seemed that Awara had lost to this person before, and his chess skills were still very good.

Then she roughly estimated the strength of the two of them, and said a little worriedly: "Then you have to be more careful. It is said that this seventh-dan is not as powerful as Kurata's seventh-dan, but it is not easy to deal with."

Ta Yaliang still heard the worry in Shinto's words, and then said firmly: "I will win today."

No matter who the opponent is, no matter whether it is inferior in seniority or strength, Ta Yaliang's momentum is always at its fullest.

Indeed, as long as there is no absolute difference in chess strength, it is really hard to say who will win on the chessboard.

However, if you don't even have the intention to win, and you already think you are going to lose before you play, then it is estimated that there is a [-]% chance that you will definitely lose this game.

Ta Yaliang obviously knew this, so he would never lose in terms of momentum.

"Well, I know, you will definitely win."

"Well," Ta Yaliang said: "You are going to face Mizoguchi Jiudan today, and your chess skills are also very strong. Zhen Chai Chong is his disciple, he..."

"Zhen Chai Chong is his disciple?" Shindo Hikaru was obviously taken aback, and he didn't know where the confidence came from suddenly, "I will win soon."

Taya Ryo originally thought that this was the first time Hikari Shinto had encountered a nine-dan master in an official competition, and wanted to remind her to pay attention.

However, things don't seem to be developing in the direction I expected.

However, it seems that Shindo Hikaru's fighting spirit has been completely inspired.

Although he didn't know what was going on, Toya Ryo was very happy to see Shinto Hikaru's fighting spirit.

In the previous life, when Toya Ryo was still alive, he and Shinto Hikari basically challenged all the major masters in Japan.

At the age of 30, the two had no rivals in Japan.

In the world of chess, there are more wins than losses.

Only those who retired before have never played chess on a formal occasion.

There are Toya celebrities, and the rest is this Mizoguchi Jiudan.

Mizoguchi Kenzo, he didn't expect that the person who played chess with him in the morning was a master who regretted not being able to compete in his previous life.

This is an opponent that even celebrities like Taya praise. His chess style is as rigorous as his own.It's really hard to make him go wrong, or fall into a trap.

I remember one time when Hikari Shinto defeated Mashibamitsu in a draw, and when he came back, he showed the game record to Master Toya.

"It's true that Shindo's ability to set traps is brilliant, but if he encounters Mizoguchi Kudan, then no trap will work, and he won't fall for it."

"Mizoguchi [-]th Dan?" Shinto Hikaru hesitated for a moment, and said, "Is it Mizoguchi Yuu [-]th Dan?"

"No, it's Zhen Chaichong's teacher, Mizoguchi Jian Sanjiu Dan. Zhen Chaichong didn't learn his teacher's rigorous chess style, and he fell into your trap twice.

Not if it was his teacher. Celebrity Taya sighed and said, "It's a pity that he already..."

Hikari Shinto looked at the dark-faced, thin and somewhat bald old man in front of him.The originally calm heart seemed to have no waves like the sea level, but now the sea level seemed to be hit by a hurricane, instantly...

Mizoguchi Kenzo looks very inconspicuous, his appearance is as inconspicuous as his personality.

He took the exam for five years before he was admitted as a professional chess player at the age of 20. After that, he stayed in the professional chess world for a full 25 years before he climbed from the early stage to the ninth stage.

People who know him say that he is a little clumsy, but he may have to do things that others can do once, he may have to do it several times.

However, everyone also knows that he has an advantage, that is, he will be very serious in everything he does, and there will be no fluke.

Although today was going to play chess with a second-dan talented young chess player, Mizoguchi Jiudan was not excited.

In his opinion, it doesn't matter who the opponent is, he will finish the game very seriously.

As expected, he is indeed a talented chess player, every move of his opponent is relatively subtle, very similar to Honinbo Shusaku's moves.
