Zongman: Start by taking down the Dragon King and meet Zi

Kong Yinzi recalled that he had lost more than ten games in a row to Dongfang Chen a few days ago. At that time, he told himself that he already had the strength of the ninth level.

Kong Yinzi didn't believe it at that time, but the current situation is the best proof.

Two minutes later, Qingtaki Kosuke's forehead was covered with sweat. He slowly opened his eyes, but his eyes were full of confusion.

He looked at the chessboard again. Although he could still struggle, it was no longer necessary.

Qingtaki Kosuke let out a long breath, a relieved smile on his face: "I, give up!"

Although he lost the game of chess, as a master he lost to his disciple, but he was very happy.

the student surpasses the master!

"Thank you, Master, for showing mercy." Dongfang Chen cooperated.

Qingtaki Kosuke waved his hand and said, "Alright, I lost, I won't deny it. Xiaochen, congratulations, you've passed the exam!"

Dongfang Chen: "Even if I have graduated, I am still a disciple brought up by my master."

Qingtaki Kosuke nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay! Guixiang, help me..."

"Okay." Qingtaki Keika hurried over and helped him up.

"Xiao Chen, go ahead and teach those high-handed guys a lesson!"

Kiyotaki Kosuke said something, and walked away trembling with the support of Kiyotaki Keika.

"Okay, keep it on me."

Chapter 14 I'm going to miss your lap pillow!

"Senior Brother Si Guoyi, you have already defeated the master!"

Kuzuryuu Yaichi looked at Dongfang Chen in surprise.

No wonder he lost so badly before, it turns out the gap in their strength is so huge.

"People always grow up. As a senior, I must set a good example, don't you think? Bayi, you should also work hard. With your talent, it's only a matter of time before you catch up with me."

Dongfang Chen patted his shoulder encouragingly.

You have to know that according to this guy's original trajectory, he would grow to the ceiling of the shogi world, and it is only a matter of time before he becomes stronger.

"Well, thanks for your good words, Senior Brother."

Kuzuryuu Yaichi smiled shyly.

Dongfang Chen: "Okay, it's getting late, it's almost time to go to bed."

"Well, I'll go wash up first."

Jiutou Longya glanced at Kong Yinzi who was still sitting next to him, and left tactfully.

"Yin Zi, what's wrong? Are you unhappy because you didn't receive my New Year's gift?" Dongfang Chen went over and sat next to her.

Kong Yinzi stared at the chessboard without even turning his head: "Stay away from me, idiot."

"Are you still angry about Sister Guixiang providing me with a lap pillow?"

"Wulusai, go to hell..."

Dongfang Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He reached out and held her hand that was resting on her knee. "Don't worry. I know Yin Zi wants to become a professional chess player as soon as possible, but shogi is never achieved overnight. I will accompany you, step by step, to become a professional chess player."

Dongfang Chen understood that Kong Yinzi was actually watching the gap between him and her getting bigger and bigger, and wanted to close the distance as much as possible.

In short, she had low self-esteem.

Thinking back to when she had just become his apprentice for a few days, she saw Dongfang Chen always hanging around her and thought he could also play shogi.

So he proposed a game of chess, and Dongfang Chen did not refuse.

As a result, Dongfang Chen, who didn't even understand the basic rules of shogi at the time, was defeated by Kong Yinzi.

She even mocked me, saying that I was two years older than her, but not as good as her at playing chess.

I was actually looked down upon by a little kid, so I decided to get back at him.

That night, he formally became Kiyotaki Kosuke's apprentice and learned shogi from Kiyotaki Kosuke.

It is worth mentioning that Kuzuryuu Yaichi also came to become his apprentice a few days later, so Kuzuryuu Yaichi is his junior brother.

Later, as she grew older, her two male junior brothers gradually caught up with her in shogi, and even surpassed her...

Up to now, both Kuzuryuu Yaichi and Dongfang Chen have reached a level that she may not be able to reach in her lifetime.

It's not just the difference in talent, women also have disadvantages in shogi.

Gradually, she also developed a sense of powerlessness and inferiority.

As her closest junior, Dongfang Chen had naturally noticed it.

By now, her inferiority complex had become stronger.

Kong Yinzi glanced at Dongfang Chen's big hand holding hers, and she pursed her lips: "Who asked you to accompany me? You are being too sentimental."

She pulled her hand away and ran away quickly...

"You're really not being candid at all. Your ears are clearly red."

Dongfang Chen smiled and shook his head. He didn't care about Kong Yinzi's attitude.

Having known her for so many years, Dongfang Chen's understanding of her is probably second only to herself.

……

January 1st to January 1rd is the New Year time in Japan.

On January 1st, Kuzuryu and Sora Ginko went home respectively. They each had their own families, and Kiyotaki Kosuke was just a master.

Dongfang Chen was adopted by the Qingtaki family and grew up in the Qingtaki family, so this place can be said to be his home.

During the New Year days, as a ninth-dan boss in the shogi world, Kiyotaki Kosuke naturally had many dignitaries, relatives and friends come to visit him, and he, the newly crowned Dragon King, also received some small gifts and whatnot.

After staying for a week, Dongfang Chen was about to return to Tokyo, and Qingtaki Keika sent him to the station again.

Dongfang Chen waved goodbye to Qingtaki Guixiang in the car: "Well, Sister Guixiang, see you later. I will miss your lap pillow!"

"Really? You're so old, but you still think about your knees as a pillow every day. Aren't you ashamed?" Qingtaki Keika said coquettishly.

"No matter how old I am, Sister Guixiang will always be Sister Guixiang."

"Okay, okay, you're just sweet-talking. I'll leave first, come back more often when you have time!"

After saying that, Qingtaki Keika started the car and left.

Dongfang Chen watched for a few seconds and walked into the station.

After another round of twists and turns, three hours later, he returned to Tokyo.

As for why he came all the way to Tokyo, it was of course because he could live alone more freely, and he also had his own little plans.

January is the coldest month in Tokyo throughout the year, with temperatures sometimes dropping below zero degrees Celsius.

So, he took a taxi home. Who would sit outside in the cold for no reason?

He got off the car when they passed by a convenience store near the apartment. He hadn't been home for a week and there wasn't any decent food at home, so he bought some to take back so he wouldn't have to make another trip out later.

"welcome!"

The waitress called out, he nodded, and went to the food section.

Chapter 15 Who is the working warrior? (Please give me flowers, monthly tickets, and evaluation tickets)

Dongfang Chen picked a bunch of ingredients and came to the counter to pay. He looked up and saw that it was another acquaintance.

He greeted, "Miss the clerk, nice to see you again."

The clerk was stunned for a moment, looked at Dongfang Chen, and smiled awkwardly: "Ahaha, yes, we meet again..."

The clerk had a neat ponytail and two bangs on each side of her face. She had a delicate face and was quite cute. She was wearing a convenience store apron.

Dongfang Chen thought for a moment and said, "This seems to be my fifth time? Or is it the sixth time? I see you working in a different place every time."

"Well, this should be the sixth time. Your goods total 24500 yen. Would you like to pay by cash or card?"

While speaking, Nanami Aoyama did not stop her hands and quickly and skillfully completed the scanning and packing of the goods.

“Cash!”

Dongfang Chen casually took out three 10,000 yuan bills and handed them to her.

"Your change is 5500 yen."

"Okay. Let me introduce myself a little bit. My name is Dongfang Chen and I'm currently a freshman in high school. What about you?" Dongfang Chen introduced himself.

"My name is Nanami Aoyama, and I'm also a freshman in high school."

She simply gave her name.

"Well, from now on I'll call you Aoyama-san. Nice to meet you."

"I'm glad to meet you, too, Dongfang-san."

"It's alright, I'll go back first. It's cold these days, so make sure you keep warm! Goodbye, part-time soldier Qingshan."

"Well, thank you for the reminder."

Nanami Aoyama thanked her, then suddenly thought something was wrong, and turned around to look through the transparent glass at the figure that was gradually disappearing into the distance.

Some people grumbled in dissatisfaction: "Really, who is the working soldier!?"

However, just these few simple exchanges made Nanami Aoyama's boring working life more lively.

……

After returning to Aoki Apartment, he looked at the door of his next-door neighbor and heard nothing.

After taking out the key, opening the door and seeing the situation inside the house, he raised his eyebrows. There was someone in his house!

Of course, it was a guy he knew, his upstairs neighbor.

She was sitting on the edge of the kotatsu, leaning on the table, and seemed to have fallen asleep.

She was wearing a brown coat, had short lavender hair tied with a yellow headband, and had a white eye patch on her eyes, which was not damaged, it was just her personal hobby.

He changed into slippers, tiptoed behind her, looked at his frozen white hands, and put them on her neck...

"ah!"

A scream was heard from the room.

Rikka Takanashi suddenly jumped up and her head hit Dongfang Chen's chin with a "bang".

“Ouch, that hurts~”

She squatted on the ground with her head in her hands.

Dongfang Chen just rubbed his chin a little and he was fine. His physique was much stronger than that of ordinary people.

He looked at the guy curled up on the ground, still whimpering, and reached out to grab the tuft of hair on her head: "So, why are you in my house?"

"Stop, stop it! Let it go, that's my cute spot!"

Rikka Takanashi quickly hugged Dongfang Chen's hand and shouted.

After the farce, Dongfang Chen made himself a cup of hot tea, heated up the milk he had just bought for Rikka Takanashi, and sat by the kotatsu.

"So, you came in from the balcony again?" Dongfang Chen stared at her.

"That is the advent of the Evil King's True Eye!"

She instantly became alert, covering her right eye, which was covered with a white eye patch, with one hand and making strange movements.

"I don't care where you came from, just go through the main door! If you fall down accidentally, you might even die."

Dongfang Chen raised his hand and tapped her on the head, speaking unhappily.

She held her head and said aggrievedly: "I can't directly break the barrier set up by the Thunder Controller. If I want to enter the barrier, I can only use the Evil King's True Eye to descend into the world..."

Dongfang Chen stared at her expressionlessly: "Speak human language."
