I loaded the dream game

"It doesn't matter, we still have food reserves." Xia Zhi replied.

"Meow?" The kitten raised its head consciously, looking confused.

Of course, this is just a joke... Xia Zhi did order takeout after all.

Just as he was thinking this, there was a knock on the door at the right moment.

The takeaway must have arrived, right?

Xia Zhi thought about it, walked forward and opened the door, and then when he saw the figure outside the door, he was stunned for a moment.

"What's wrong? Xia Zhi?" Kato Megumi, who was at the door, saw the boy in a daze, tilted her head slightly, and asked in confusion.

"Brother, what's wrong? Is the takeaway here?" Hearing the sound at the door, Xia Zhi followed out.

Seeing the familiar figure of the girl outside the door, she was also stunned for a moment, and then looked at her brother with suspicion.

So... this is the takeaway you ordered, brother? .

Chapter 518 "If we are conspiring, could you please keep your voice down?"

Xia Zhi pushed back his sister's head, turned around and looked at the girl at the door. After thinking for a moment, he asked, "What's the matter, Kato-san?"

"Xia Zhi, you guys probably haven't eaten yet, right?" Kato Megumi did not answer his question immediately, but asked a different question.

"Not yet..."

"That's great." The girl was obviously relieved.

Xia Zhi became even more confused, and her eyes fell on the thermos on the bicycle rack behind her.

Noticing his puzzled look, Kato Megumi continued to explain: "Because I got home earlier than usual today, I tried to make some curry myself..."

"But, it seems that because of the heavy rain just now, Mom and Dad called me and told me that they would not be back at night..." The girl's words clearly contained a hint of distress.

Summer Solstice:…

So, this matter actually has something to do with me?

"But I can't finish all this curry by myself..." The girl continued to explain: "Then, I thought of you and Natsuori-sister and the others."

I see... I was going to say that, but if it's curry, it's okay to put it in the refrigerator and eat it tomorrow, right?

Just as he was thinking this, Xia Zhi came out from behind him again and happily held the girl's hand: "Thank you so much, Sister Hui. My brother and I haven't eaten curry for a long time."

Nonsense, you just ate it a while ago, right?

Xia Zhi complained in his heart.

However, if this is the real world, it has been a long time since I last had it...

"Let me tell you, Sister Hui, my brother's favorite food is curry."

"Eh? This is the first time I know of such a thing."

Not to mention you, this is actually the first time I know about it too.

Xia Zhi looked at Xia Zhi's back as he pulled the girl into the house, and while thinking, he set his sights on the bicycle rack behind him. After sighing helplessly, he picked up the thermos on it and walked into the house.

……

Not long after Kato Megumi arrived, the takeaway ordered by Xia Zhi also arrived.

Considering that there would be more people at night, he ordered a little more, and after taking out the food, he filled up a large table.

"That's great. I was worried that the curry I brought might not be enough...々¨..."

Seeing this, Kato Megumi also breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, she didn't expect that there would be other guests at Xia Zhi's house besides herself tonight.

By the way, is this girl Xia Zhi's classmate?

Her eyes fell on the girl with short light blue hair opposite her, and she thought so in her heart.

It looks familiar, as if I've seen it somewhere before...

Where is it?

"Sister Hui, do you know Ginko? She's a super famous person." As if seeing the slightly confused look on her face, Xia Zhi explained to her boastfully.

Xia Zhi is not quite clear about it either. It is obviously others who are more capable, so why are you so proud of yourself?

But then again, if Natsuori hadn't mentioned this, he would have almost forgotten that Sora Ginko is actually a super idol in the shogi world.

On the other side, Kong Yinzi seemed unaware that she had become the center of conversation. She looked absent-minded, and her eyes kept looking at Xubi beside her. No one knew what she was thinking.

Hubie also noticed her gaze and tilted his head in confusion, somewhat bewildered.

"that……"

After hesitating for a long time, Kong Yinzi looked at Xia Zhi, paused on him for a moment, then fell on Xia Zhi, and asked: "Can I ask, has Xubi ever learned shogi before?"

Xia Zhi blinked and looked at her brother beside her.

"Of course I have learned it." Xia Zhi replied.

Hubie nodded slightly and agreed, "About... five days, twenty-one hours, forty-three minutes, and thirty-one seconds ago..."

This is no longer an approximation, is it? Xia Zhi complained in her heart.

On the other hand, Kong Yinzi estimated in her mind that this time was probably... when she came to Xia Zhi's house to stay overnight last time?

In other words, she learned the rules just by watching from the side when she was reviewing the game last time, and then immediately reached a level that could beat her?

This kind of thing... is unbelievable no matter how you think about it, right?

Seeing the girl's expression that seemed to doubt her life, Xia Zhi gently pulled the clothes of Xu Bi beside him and asked her in a low voice: "How many times did you win against her?"

"Including last time... a total of six games." Huber answered truthfully.

"How many games did you play in total?"

"Six innings."

"..."

Well, Xia Zhi probably knew why the girl doubted her life. This kind of thing would probably be similar for anyone else, right? Just like now, aren't there still many people who can't accept the fact that AI, which was born only a few years ago, is better at playing Go than many people who have devoted their entire lives to it?

It’s also my fault that I overlooked this point before and didn’t remind Hubie in advance?

Xia Zhi thought about it and whispered to Hubie, "Next time when you play chess, be careful to give in to others."

"Why?" Hubie looked puzzled.

When she was playing flying chess, she never gave in to Eluke?

Ai Lu Ke nodded in agreement, saying that she had already given away all the kitten's cat food for next year, so if she wanted to feed the kitten recently, she could only share her cream cake with others with great reluctance.

"Cats can't eat cream." Xia Zhi rubbed her head and reminded her, "It will cause indigestion."

"I see..." Ailuko tilted his head and thought about it.

In other words, I can save the money on my own cream cake?

She soon became happy again.

The girl's mood always changes quickly, but on the other hand, the other girl's mood doesn't seem to be so good.

Kong Yinzi looked at the people opposite who seemed to be whispering to each other, pulled the corners of his mouth, clenched his hands holding the chopsticks slightly, and couldn't help but want to complain in his heart.

I heard everything you just said.

.......

Chapter 519: Kato Megumi would also want to be praised

"Xiazhi's home is becoming more and more lively."

Walking on the quiet and deserted streets, Kato Megumi walked with her hands behind her back and sighed softly.

Xia Zhi pushed the girl's bicycle and walked beside her... After all, she came here specially to share the food, so he couldn't let her push the bicycle by herself when sending her back, he had to help out at least.

In this regard, Kato Megumi did not refuse and naturally handed her bicycle to the boy.

Pushing the bicycle gently as he walked beside the girl, listening to the slight "tapping" sound made by the pawl sliding across the ratchet when the rear wheel was pushed, Xia Zhi inexplicably missed his lost bicycle.

"Xiazhi classmate?"

The girl's voice drew his attention back. When he turned around, he saw a pair of black eyes that were close to him and looked a little puzzled.

"……What's wrong?"

Is it necessary to get so close? Xia Zhi thought.

"Because you didn't respond when I called you just now." Kato Hui moved a little further away, returned to the original distance, and continued to ask: "Xiazhi classmate, were you distracted just now?"

"I just remembered some things and reminisced about my old friends." Xia Zhi replied.

Friends from the past?

　250 Kato Megumi felt a little doubtful.

"As far as I know, Xia Zhi, the former classmate, didn't have any friends?"

"...That's really too much." Xia Zhi pulled the corner of his mouth, and couldn't help but want to refute: "Even I still have some friends after so many years."

"Is that so?" Kato Megumi tilted her head slightly and asked in return.

"…There must be some, right?"

Xia Zhi recalled and his voice gradually became uncertain.

But then again, why does the girl know so much about her past?

Xia Zhi thought carefully for a moment, then shook his head, put this unimportant matter aside for the time being, looked at the girl and continued: "Anyway, I still have to thank Kato-san for sharing the food with us."

"There's no need to thank me so much. After all, didn't you also treat me during Xia Zhi's reign?" Kato Megumi said, shaking her head slightly.

"Besides, just like Xia Zhi said last time, we are classmates, friends, and neighbors. It's normal for us to help each other, right?"

"That being said, gratitude is also essential..."

"So I said, you don't need that kind of thing... if it's you, Xia Zhi."

The girl suddenly stopped walking as she spoke, and turned around with her hands behind her back. Under the moonlight and the lamplight, she looked at Xia Zhi with her clear black eyes and asked with a smile:

"Compared to that...how do you feel about it?"

Thoughts?

Xia Zhi was slightly stunned.

“After all, it’s a dish I made myself. It’s the first time I let people other than my family taste it, so I’d always care more about the evaluation, right?” The girl gave a matter-of-fact reason that made it impossible to refute it.

Xia Zhi thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case. Just like when he cooked, he also cared about what other people thought of his cooking... although he had never shown any intention of improving.

"It's delicious." He gave his own evaluation.

"What else?" The girl seemed dissatisfied and continued to ask.

this……

Suddenly he was asked to comment on something... He was not a professional gourmet and this was not a food novel. He could not do such a thing right away, commenting on all the flavors and cooking methods in detail like in those food animations, right?

Xia Zhi was a little embarrassed. After hesitating for a long time, he tentatively said, "The taste is not too salty or bland, just right?"

"..."

Kato Hui was silent for a moment, then sighed slightly: "Xiazhi classmate..."

"what happened?"

"As for curry, it would taste better if it had a stronger flavor, right?"

"..."

Xia Zhi actually thinks that this is a prejudice against curry and a labeling view. Even if it is curry (bidc), people should have the freedom to choose their own taste. Light curry is still curry.

...Of course, he didn't dare say this.
