Global Games: Old Chess Players

Chapter 145 "Did no one sue the old chess players for cruelty to animals?"

January 1, Huaxia, Shangshi City.

An Senlu opened his eyes and looked around in a daze.

This time, he returned not to the teacher's dormitory of Shangshi High School, but to his small apartment with poor lighting.

He opened the curtains, and there were falling snow and flying birds in the winter sky. It was still the familiar small county town. Even Shangshi High School, which occupies a small area, stood out among the flat buildings, like a giant. towering.

"Should I sleep first, or go to the public high school and talk to them?"

An Senlu withdrew his gaze and looked at the information bubble in the upper right corner of his sight. The appearance of the bubble was eye-catching crimson. It was undoubtedly sent by Asuka, and there were more than one of them. It was simply bombarding.

"Then let's go over there first and rest."

He got out of bed, and just opened the door with the key, when he heard a "pop!", and then a pile of inexplicable red paper, blue paper, and green paper sprinkled on his hair.

Ansen raised his head in a daze, and took a closer look.

A clear and beautiful cheek came into view, the girl's red nose in the winter, clear and agile eyes, she exhaled a soft breath, and patted An Senlu's cheek.

Just now, Uesugi Asuka opened a small paper salute. She is still wearing the same outfit today, a red coat with a light green skirt inside, and the skirt is gently swaying in the cold winter wind.

Asuka had a smug smile on her face, as if she wanted to see Anson deer startled.

"ill?"

An Senlu patted the colored paper on his head.

Asuka Uesugi threw away the salute casually, she looked dissatisfied, raised her head slightly, her neck was as slender as a swan.

"Huh? You actually reacted like this, but I still want to celebrate your birthday!"

"Please, how long has it been since my birthday?"

"Of course it's a delayed celebration!" Uesugi Asuka said with one hand on her hip, "Only a ghost can celebrate your birthday in the dungeon? You can't expect the system to celebrate your birthday!"

"That's true." An Senlu lowered his head, glanced at the colored paper scattered all over the floor, and said thoughtfully, "Oh, it looks so crappy, you must have made it yourself?"

"you this……"

An Senlu interrupted Asuka who was about to explode, smiled, and said lightly:
"Thank you, I'm very happy."

Asuka froze for a moment, she rarely saw Ansenlu smile like this, before Ansenlu's smile always gave her a very fake feeling, like the expression simulated by AI.

"Oh, just be happy." She turned her head and hugged her shoulders.

"Crow, Teacher Chu, Yu Rui, are they all back?"

Asuka Uesugi said lightly: "Hmph, they are all downstairs, I told them to stay for a while, but they walked slower one by one, so I came up first."

"What if I fall asleep?"

"Then I'll kick in."

"Speechless, breaking into a private house, right? This heroine, you are labeled as a high-risk person by the foundation for a reason!"

"Or, I'd better spray your apartment with a fire."

"I was wrong, Miss Uesugi."

"Get out, don't be sly."

An Senlu turned his head, at this moment, from the stairs of the corridor, there were three figures walking over.

"Lu Jun, happy birthday." Urushihara was wearing a black windbreaker, with a gentle smile on his face.

"President, happy birthday." Chu Qimo, wearing a brown coat and smart pants, nodded to An Senlu.

You Rui is wearing Shangshi's blue and white school uniform, wrapped in a light blue scarf, a set of clothes that is obviously very rustic on others, but it fits well on her, fresh and refined.

She raised her clear eyes, breathed out a breath of cold air, stared at An Senlu without saying a word, her eyes seemed to say - "I told you happy birthday before, I was the one who said it first".

An Senlu glanced at You Rui twice, lost his mind for a while, and helped to pat off a wisp of falling snow from her hair with his hands.

Then, he shrugged embarrassedly:

"Thank you everyone, although today is not my birthday."

Chu Qimo raised his eyebrows lightly, and hesitated to speak: "So today isn't it, Asuka said today is your birthday, so..."

"Miss Asuka may mean..." Urushihara Ritsu said: "We can regard today as Lu-kun's birthday, so as to make up for the lack of not being able to stay with Lu-kun on his birthday."

An Senlu coughed twice, and said solemnly: "Late justice is meaningless. I will not accept your birthday wishes, especially one with the surname Uesugi."

"Ha, remember his face." Uesugi Asuka tilted her head and said a little angrily, "Will you celebrate this kind of person's birthday next time?"

"Okay, then I'll take today as my birthday." An Senlu glanced at her and said lightly, "January 1th, An Senlu's new birthday, are you satisfied?"

"now it's right."

An Senlu put his hands in his pockets helplessly, "So, have you had breakfast?"

"Isn't this waiting for you?" Asuka said.

"Yes, Mr. Lu, we all came from the school on an empty stomach."

"What do you want to eat?" Yuri asked eagerly, wrapped in a scarf.

An Senlu said nonchalantly: "Uh, I don't have anything to eat. Actually, I just had a tempura bowl in Tokyo."

"The tempura in Tokyo is not bad." Ritsu Urushihara said.

Asuka Uesugi frowned, and asked:

"Won't you bring us for breakfast?"

"Can you stop being so dark, I know you guys are going to come here, I was still in the dungeon just now, okay?" An Senlu sighed softly, staring at Asuka's cheek with contempt.

Chu Qimo suddenly raised his hand and said, "President, I have a proposal."

"What suggestion?" An Senlu was taken aback, "Also, Mr. Chu, you don't need to raise your hand next time when you speak, we are not in class."

Chu Qimo lowered his right hand and said calmly: "I can cook, how about eating at the president's house?"

Yuri was the first to nod, which was surprising.

Ritsu Urushihara also spread his hands, expressing that he had no objection.

Only Uesugi Asuka hesitated for two seconds. She glanced at An Senlu's messy apartment and asked contemptuously, "Please, how long have you been cleaning up?"

"Why don't you ask, how long has it been since I returned to Shangshi?" An Senlu sighed.

Asuka said disgustedly: "Okay, let's eat at his house and supervise a certain slob cleaning the room by the way."

"Are you my mother?" An Senlu narrowed his eyes and dragged his voice deliberately.

"Yes, I am your mother."

"Student Asuka, your words, in our Chinese language, are a bit like scolding. Your quality needs to be improved."

"If there is any ambiguity, it is you who are scolding."

On a winter morning, the air was very fresh, and the cold morning breeze blew across the sky in Shangshi, gently blowing against the cheeks of the teenagers and girls.

An Senlu and Asuka quarreled for a while before they stopped.

At this moment, Yuri, Ritsu Urushihara, and Chu Qimo had already taken off their shoes in the apartment. Yuri took the lead. She glanced at An Senlu and Asuka, and then walked in with a blank expression. apartment.

"Please, can you respect the owner of the apartment a little bit, is there any law?!"

In order to prevent the three of them from digging out any unspeakable secret documents from the room, An Senlu couldn't care about Asuka anymore, so he took off his shoes and entered the door to protect his privacy.

"Idiot, this person..." Asuka glanced at An Senlu's hurried back, and chuckled lightly.

She took off her shoes, walked into Anson Deer's small apartment, and looked around the dark and narrow living room, which was almost non-existent, and the TV was covered with a layer of dust.

The apartment is empty and there are no extra decorations.

Approaching the kitchen, Chu Qimo and Qi Yuanli opened the refrigerator. The two seemed to be good at cooking and were already thinking about what to cook. Unfortunately, everything in An Senlu's refrigerator had expired.

"Uh, who's going to buy the ingredients?" An Senlu asked as he sat cross-legged on the carpet.

Ritsu Urushi put his hand on Chu Qimo's shoulder, coughed and said, "Mr. Lu, Chu Qimo and I are already ready to cook, why don't we let us go?"

Chu Qimo has already tied up with the kitchen group. Holding a notebook and a pen, he thought seriously about the ingredients he needed, recorded them one by one with the pen, and then tore off the page and handed it to An Senlu.

"Teacher Chu and the crow have the important task of cooking, and our great President Lu just saved Tokyo and came out of the dungeon." Ansen Lu said this, looked at Yuri and Asuka, blinked and said:
"So, you understand what I mean?"

"I'm not very familiar with supermarkets..." Yuri tilted his head and asked in an emotionless voice, "Are you going with me?"

An Senlu held his chin, and said casually: "It's okay, first time you are born, second time you are acquainted."

"Yes, then I'll go alone." Yuri said.

Uesugi Asuka squinted her eyes the whole time, she couldn't stand it anymore:
"Just me and this idiot, Yuri, you can rest here."

"Speaking of which, my spirit attribute is over 50 points now." An Senlu suddenly opened the personal panel and changed the subject: "The attribute added by the skill Soul of Chess is the spirit divided by 10 points, so I can add 5 points to the chess type property!"

"Who cares about you!"

Asuka Uesugi dragged Ansenlu who was crying for his father and mother very simply, and the two left the apartment together.

"Oh!"

The door slammed shut.

"What a pity." Yuri held up the cup and took a sip of the hot water.

Ritsu Urushihara turned on the TV with the remote control, and the news was playing on the TV—【The shocking video of the Boss battle officially released by Japan, the former chess player "Ansen Shika" turned the tide and saved Tokyo! 】.

Chu Qimo stared at the screen expressionlessly: "This dungeon of the president looks very difficult."

"Well, the dungeon of Lu Jun Pai this time should be the most difficult one in the world." Urushihara thought thoughtfully, "Of course, this excludes those capitals that have fallen."

"I heard that Seoul in South Korea has fallen?" Chu Qimo looked at the crow.

"That's right, tens of thousands of citizens got lost in the different space." After a pause, Urushihara added: "Also, the 'Exceeding Eagle' and 'Ash Warrior' of the law enforcement team died in this copy."

"Really..." Chu Qimo was startled, and his expression quickly returned to calm: "Then the matter is serious. The law enforcement team should have gone to Seoul to hunt down those monsters?"

Seoul has fallen, and the monsters that cannot be wiped out will survive in the world as colonists. If they are not cleaned up in time, they may endanger other cities or even countries in the future.

"The law enforcement team is probably overwhelmed, but they won't act so fast."

"why?"

Urushihara said slowly: "The first reason is that the monsters are not so easy to get rid of this time; the second reason is that there is an important person who has not returned to the present world."

"Important people?"

"This important person has returned."

Chu Qimo was stunned for a moment before realizing: "You mean the president?"

"Yes, the situation is so serious this time. The capital-level city has fallen. To ensure that there are no casualties to recover the city from the monster, the law enforcement team has only one choice." Urushihara took a sip of water.

You Rui, who was listening, suddenly said: "They will ask us for help, but An Senlu is not here, so they don't know how to negotiate with us."

"So that's how it is." Chu Qimo took a deep breath, "I reacted too slowly."

Ritsu Urushihara put down the water glass, crossed his fingers to his chin, sighed and asked:
"Speaking of which, do you think Mr. Lu will reject the law enforcement team's request?"

"No." Yuri said.

"Probably not, the president is a kind person." Chu Qimo also said.

"Well, it's true..." Qi Yuanli raised his eyebrows and smiled helplessly: "Then we have to work overtime."

An extremely shocking scene was still broadcasting on the TV. It was the scene of the old chess player ordering the floating mad shark to give the Wanqi statue the final blow. All the audience applauded, and the barrage exploded in real time.

Undoubtedly, the officials of various countries are using the Ansen deer incident to try their best to cover up the heat of the fact that the South Korean capital has fallen, and they will not let the people further fall into unstoppable panic.

The existence of old chess players has become the hope in the hearts of many people.

You Rui turned his eyes away and looked at An Senlu with a cold face on the screen.

She suddenly said: "That's right..."

"What's the matter, Miss Yuri." Qi Yuanru turned his cheek and looked at him with deep eyes.

"Now, I have some new understanding of him."

"understand?"

"You said that the closer you get to him, the more you can recognize his indifferent side, so when you are pushed away by him, you will get hurt."

"I said so, but 'hurt' doesn't refer to you, Ms. Yuri, after all, you lack emotions and don't feel such emotions." Urushihara said lightly: "Well, I'm talking about Miss Asuka .”

Chu Qimo had just recovered from the wonderful pictures broadcast on TV.

He turned his head and asked puzzledly, "Are you talking about the president?"

The two did not respond.

He couldn't get into the topic of the two of them. In fact, Chu Qimo was not interested, so he just continued watching TV.

Following the news about the old chess players, the news platform immediately broadcast the wonderful performance of the captain of the law enforcement team, "Lorenzo de' Medici" in a capital-level dungeon.

The location is Washington, USA.

Lorenzo's performance was also very shocking, and it can also be said that he turned the tide.

However, compared to Anson Lu, he is still much inferior. The main thing is that Lorenzo still upholds the principle and never uses skills derived from "negative emotions" when it is not necessary.

Chu Qimo asked Qi Yuanlu the reason for this.

Urushihara said yes - if Lorenzo uses skills related to "negative emotions" too much, he will be disturbed by these emotions to a certain extent, resulting in a mental burden.

Over time, it is not surprising even if the personality changes drastically.

Because of this, although the power of negative emotions is very powerful, Lorenzo still upholds the principle and never uses these skills unless necessary, and the law enforcement team also conceals this matter from the outside.

"Asuka..." Yuri put her hand on her chin.

"Well, Ms. Asuka is different from you. Although she has a strong appearance, she is a person who is easily hurt." Ritsu Urushihara said slowly:

"And Mr. Lu is a two-faced person. In fact, he seldom shows tenderness to those around him from the bottom of his heart, unless it is necessary. Even so, most of them are just pretending. This personality Separation will allow him to inadvertently hurt those close to him."

Yuri said without emotion: "I have some different understandings of what you said."

"What kind of understanding?" Ritsu Urushi was very interested, as if he was listening attentively.

"According to what you said, after getting close to him, I found that he began to act indifferent. In fact, he was not pushing anyone away, and he didn't think about hurting anyone." Yuri said:

"That's what he is. Only when he trusts you enough can he show his indifferent side to you."

"It's also an interesting perspective."

"He... is actually just tired."

"very tired?"

"Well, I was not understood, so I hid myself." After a pause, Yuri said: "So, he is very tired, and sometimes he will show his original appearance to others, which is not indifference, let alone pushing away. Who, because he trusts you."

Ritsu Urushi stared at Yuri, and said meaningfully: "You really know him well, Miss Yuri."

"I don't refute."

After watching another wonderful replay of the boss battle, Chu Qimo turned his head and tried to ask the two of them again:
"So... are you discussing the chairman in such a long talk?"

"No, we're talking about Juliu." Urushihara said perfunctorily.

"Yeah." Yuri nodded.

On the stone city, head to the street of the supermarket.

At dawn, the whole city of Shangshi was in a quiet winter atmosphere. An Senlu had never seen snow in Shangshi before, but today it suddenly snowed, which is a unique sight.

The shops on the side of the road have already opened, and the aunts and aunts on the street carry a bag of vegetables, greet each other with a smile, say a few nonsense such as "Have you eaten?" Farewell at the top of my voice.

An old man was riding a bicycle, listening to the MP3 of the last century, passing by Asuka and Ansen Lu very leisurely. The first thought of Ansen Lu was - uncle, take me away!
Although the end of the world is coming, everyone still has to live. It is impossible for everyone to shrink in their rooms and stay behind closed doors. Human beings are creatures with strong adaptability.

For these citizens, since the things that determine their fate cannot be held in their own hands, they have no choice but to be prepared and resign themselves to their fate. During the holidays, they should work and eat and drink.

When the dungeon starts, the time to watch the battle in the different space is regarded as a holiday. I bought a few plates of popcorn and a few bottles of Coke and brought them to the different space. I ate and cheered for those players. Some citizens even opened the market in the different space. , Bet on who will get the MVP of the dungeon, which players will survive to the end, it is a joy to play, this enthusiasm is not lower than the World Cup.

At this moment, An Senlu had thick dark circles under his eyes, with a depressed face, and was led away by Asuka the whole way.

Obviously he is a native of Shangshi, but Shangshan Asuka is more familiar with the roads in this area than him, it is so outrageous that it cannot be more outrageous.

It can be seen that during his absence, Asuka should have walked all over the city. After all, this little dragon girl is very energetic and can't sit down at all when she is idle.

Life is not easy, An Senlu sighed: "This red dragon girl, can you not be so rude, if you come to Shangshi City, you have to get used to the simple folk customs here."

"You make it sound like you won't be moved if you don't scream like this." Asuka Uesugi rubbed the Tianming acupoint as if she couldn't stand it, and said contemptuously: "Also, can you stop bullying Yuri, she has never been involved in the world. Shen, what if she was kidnapped by someone when she went to the supermarket alone?"

"First of all, she is a sequence player, who can abduct her?" An Senlu said: "Secondly, she has hypermemory, can she memorize the steps of buying things once she goes to the supermarket, she is not a child anymore.

In the end, didn't I ask you to go with her? Why did you insist on kidnapping me? ! "

Uesugi Asuka's clear eyes flashed a trace of disdain, she snorted coldly, and said almost word for word:
"Just kidnap you."

"Please." An Senlu said weakly: "I really want to rest, buddy. It's been a day or two since you all released the dungeon, and I just came out of the dungeon. I feel like my legs are about to break after walking these few steps. I just want to be a giant baby and go straight Rolling on the floor paralyzed."

"Who made someone directly say 'sick' after seeing my carefully prepared salute."

"That's called meticulousness. Our ingenious Shangshi people can make a hundred in one night, and half a week has passed since my birthday!"

"I don't care, I just want to celebrate your birthday, seeing how pitiful you are."

An Senlu rolled his eyes: "Yes, yes, whatever you want."

At this time, Ansenlu has already attracted the attention of many people.

Sensing the sights from all around and the suddenly cumbersome discussions, Asuka felt quite helpless.

She sighed softly, took off the peaked cap she was wearing, and stuffed it on Ansen Deer's head, even covering his eyes.

"What are you doing?"

An Sen Lu straightened his hat and asked helplessly.

Asuka Uesugi glanced at him, covered her face and sighed again: "You don't even look at who you are, if you don't wear a hat, you will be surrounded by people within three seconds after entering the supermarket."

"Oh, that's right, I keep forgetting that I'm a celebrity now."

"Hey, are you a bit self-aware?" Asuka Uesugi said this, her voice elongated in a strange way: "Obviously, you are already the world's No. [-] Ansenka-sama."

"It's almost done. The number one in the world doesn't need to go to the street to buy food. Hey, everyone is too nervous."

As An Senlu said, he looked down at the list that Chu Qimo gave him, and said dazedly, "Ms. Chu is too good. With so many ingredients, can my broken kitchen hold up?"

"Let me see." Uesugi Asuka moved her head closer.

An Senlu only paid attention to one point: "Have you brought any money, Teacher Chu and the crow seem to be going to have a big meal?"

Asuka took out her bear wallet from the pocket of the red coat, took out two coins from it, and then looked at Anson deer with contempt:
"I said, you don't usually use evolution coins to pay back the money, I feel like I'm more like a stoner than you!"

"No way, do you understand the exchange rate of evolution coins, ten evolution coins are enough to live in Shangshi for a month!"

Asuka rested her forehead and sighed, "Just as long as you are happy."

"Actually, I'm quite happy." An Senlu said suddenly.

"what?"

"It was the first time a friend celebrated my birthday."

Asuka Uesugi froze for a moment, turned her cheek, and put a faint smile on her mouth.

"That's good."

The two walked into the supermarket, and their figures were shrouded in the light of incandescent lamps. They followed Chu Qimo's instructions and bought ingredients in the supermarket.

An Senlu pushed the shopping cart and followed behind Asuka. Asuka was holding Chu Qimo's list, bouncing around like a deer in the supermarket, carefully choosing ingredients.

From time to time, she opened her clear eyes wide, pretending not to know how to distinguish between good and bad ingredients.

An Senlu rolled his eyes and was so sleepy that he almost fainted. He thought it would be weird if she knew how to choose ingredients for a young lady like her. At least Asuka enjoyed it, so he didn't bother to say anything.

During this period, many grandparents, young players, and even children recognized Asuka. They rushed up one by one, asking for autographs and group photos with Asuka.

An Senlu felt embarrassed at the side, quickly lowered his peaked cap, and hummed while pushing the shopping cart, for fear of being recognized as the number one in the world, Shangshi Xiaolu.

Asuka once won the MVP of the Shangshi dungeon, and she is considered a celebrity in this city.In addition, after leaving the law enforcement team, Asuka's reputation has improved, so the citizens of Shangshi still have a good impression of her.

In addition to asking for friends, whether it is autographs or group photos, Asuka patiently gave them one by one. She is a person who cares about face and needs the approval of others very much.

"Done yet?"

An Senlu exhaled and asked in a low voice.

"the last one."

Uesugi Asuka signed a child's autograph, and reached out to touch her head.

"I will become a sequence player like Sister Asuka in the future!" said the girl.

Hearing this, An Senlu couldn't help shivering, and complained in his heart: "Please, if the evolution game continues when you grow up, then human beings will be extinct long ago!" '

"Sure." Asuka snorted.

'It can be a ghost. 'Anson Deer said in his heart.

After Uesugi Asuka dismissed the child, she turned to An Senlu: "Why are you so impatient?"

"If you talk about it again, I'll show you off. How about we go back in a Christmas sleigh?" Anson Lu sighed softly.

"No, what if someone sees you?"

"They can't come to heaven to ask for my autograph, can they?"

"It will cause unrest in the city."

The two came to check out at the front desk of the supermarket. Because Asuka asked for too many ingredients, which exceeded what Chu Qimo originally wanted, they packed four shopping bags.

She was in a happy mood, and was about to take out money from the bear wallet, when the cashier at the front desk smiled and said, "You don't need to pay back, you are a sequence player, our hero."

An Senlu nodded quickly, just wanting to get away quickly, he had already made up his mind: the stone statue of the queen carried two bags of ingredients, and the different-dimensional kangaroo carried two bags of ingredients, perfectly distributing the four shopping bags on hand.

No.

How can the queen carry the shopping bag?

The shadow of the dust should be summoned and let it copy a different-dimensional kangaroo.

"How can it be, I must pay the money that should be paid?" Asuka Uesugi frowned slightly, and slapped the money on the counter.

The cashier didn't know that Asuka had such a strong character, so she smiled and said:
"Miss Asuka, it was stipulated by our boss. If we really take money from you people's heroes, we will be punished."

"Okay..." Asuka Uesugi curled her lips, and put the banknotes back into her wallet, "It's rare to save money, and I want to experience the feeling of shopping."

An Senlu was taken aback, "You saved this money yourself?"

"I have experienced temporary work here, can't I?" She said lightly: "I have had the opportunity to experience this before, and my family will help me arrange everything, including going to school in the United States."

As she spoke, she put her wallet back into her coat pocket, and handed Anson a piece of chewing gum to Deer,

An Senlu took the chewing gum, tore off the wrapping paper, and put it in his mouth.

"It's okay, as long as you are happy."

After that, he very consciously picked up four bags of ingredients, walked out of the supermarket, and entered a corner.

"Set up different-dimensional kangaroos, set up shadows of dust, and copy different-dimensional kangaroos!" Anson Lu said decisively.

"Gaba."

"Gaba."

An original different-dimensional kangaroo and a different-dimensional kangaroo with a gray color scheme appeared in front of Anson's deer.

Anson Deer burst into tears, handed the shopping bag to the hands of the two kangaroos, and said: "Mr. Kangaroo, Mr. No. [-] Kangaroo, you are really my savior!"

"Hehe, no one sued the old chess players for cruelty to animals?" Asuka Uesugi said with a smirk, "I should really post this photo on Weibo."

An Senlu shrugged his shoulders, and replied nonchalantly: "If this is also a defendant, then the world should be destroyed sooner."

On the way home, a teenager, a girl, a kangaroo carrying two shopping bags, and a phantom kangaroo carrying two shopping bags, their backs are extraordinarily warm under the winter sun.
