Chapter 33 Maybe it will go bankrupt, but it will never go bad

"They have all gone out." Higashino replied.

Minami Chiharu has to work, Takagi Kiko is always not in the dormitory, and Yoshii Sanku has also been busy recently.

As for Akemi Akimiya, her friend held an art exhibition and went to help.

Why did Higashino know?

Because Akemi Akimiya apologized for not being able to be an assistant today.

This made Higashino very ashamed.

Akemi Akimiya has been working as an assistant without expecting anything in return. After much deliberation, Higashino can only give her a good husband as a reward.

"Well, that's pretty boring." Akira Yamazaki shook his head, feeling a little disappointed, "I also hope that there will be more people and it will be more lively, so I specially brought the UNO card."

"Huh?" Higashino Hibiki was a little surprised, "I thought chess players like to be cooler."

"How could it be?" Akira Yamazaki cheered up, "Chess players are human too. I usually like to dance or go to ktv."

She took out a folding fan from the back, on which was written the two Chinese characters of "jidao", and shook it proudly, "I am a second-dan Go professional, Akira Yamazaki, please give me more advice in the future."

"Isn't it cold in winter?" Higashino Hibiki was taken aback.

"It's still quite cold." Akira Yamazaki shivered.

"Stop talking, stop talking, let's start!" Akira Yamazaki waved his hand, sat on the sofa, and blinked at him.

"Okay, I'm going to get the chessboard."

Higashino went to the second floor and carried down the osmanthus chessboard he bought.

This brand new chessboard, including the chess pieces, costs 15 yen in total, which is unexpectedly expensive.

It was enough for Yui Hirasawa to buy three guitars after being bargained by the chairman's daughter.

But in order to draw manga to look more professional, there is no other way.

It's impossible to go to the chessboard of the White Chess Academy, right?
Although today's second paragraph seems to be quite deceiving.

Facing Akira Yamazaki, Higashino told her the chess game she needed.

"My side is using the Xiuce style, a chess master level. The opponent is modern Go, an amateur Dzogchen. Except for professional chess players, they will not lose to anyone else."

"Yeah." Akira Yamazaki nodded, a little complicated, but she was here to do this.

"You need Xiu Ce to use the guiding chess to win easily."

"Hmm..." She hesitated.

"Our side uses the ancient formula, and plays calmly to defend against the opponent's attack."

"Let me think about it..." Akira Yamazaki was a little distressed. It was originally a simple and interesting job, and it could also be used as a topic of conversation.Unexpectedly, the boy named Higashino Hibiki was so strict.

Akira Yamazaki opened the folding fan and slapped his dizzy and dizzy head, "I have to go back and look up the old books of the chess academy, please wait for a while."

Higashino nodded, "Well, time is not a problem, all of this is troublesome for you, Akira Yamazaki's second stage career."

Perhaps because she was worried about being underestimated by Higashino, she looked at the chessboard, and the corner of her mouth twitched, "Let's play chess, I will let you have five stones."

"Five pieces! You underestimate me too much." Higashino stood up angrily. This is five pieces. Although Go is not backgammon, one more piece is already a great advantage, let alone five pieces. What about the child?
"clatter!"

After setting the plate, Higashino was full of confidence.

Today is the start of defeating professional chess players.

20 minutes later……

"Fifth son... Fifth son can't do it..." Dong Yexiang lowered his head, feeling melancholy.

Completely and utterly defeated.

"Hahaha," Yamazaki Akira covered his mouth with a folding fan and snickered, "I made you look down on me, now that you know the strength of the second-tier professional, I've been killed out of tens of thousands of people anyway."

"I'm too superficial." Higashino apologized.

They played a few more rounds, and Higashino lost all of them.

Akira Yamazaki's desire to win is too strong. Facing a novice, he didn't give in at all when playing chess. Instead, he enjoyed the joy of abusing vegetables and frying fish.

It wasn't until five o'clock that she let out a long sigh, got up and put on her backpack, "I will take my leave today, and if everything goes well, I will bring the chess records on Wednesday."

Dongye Xiang asked to stay, "Don't you want to stay for a meal?"

"Sorry, I have a date with my boyfriend tonight."

"Then it won't affect you, just walk slowly all the way."

Higashino sent her out, and then watched her leave.

It happened that Nan Qianchun came over from the other side with a vegetable basket on her shoulders. She looked at the back of Yamazaki Mingyuan and asked curiously, "Higashi-kun, who are you?"

Higashino took the basket, looked down, saw that there was meat, and grinned, "I invited a professional Go player to learn how to play."

"Really? Higashino-kun actually likes to play chess," Nan Qianchun didn't rest, walked into the kitchen, wrapped up his apron, and started making dinner.

Higashino followed her, helping to wash the tomatoes and meat, "Well, I think Go is very interesting."

"It's a rare hobby. Boys who can play chess are very handsome." Nan Qianchun squatted and peeled potatoes, "But don't forget to draw well, we are art students."

"Of course, I have eight hands, and I want them all."

"It sounded like a child talking."

"Hahaha, maybe it is."

There is no serialization, Higashino is not ready to reveal the news of drawing manga.

After all, everyone around me knew it, and it failed, which was really embarrassing.

It must be very interesting to surprise them again when it is serialized and cannot be concealed anymore.

……

On Wednesday, Akira Yamazaki came to "Yoshihara-so" and brought the chess records Higashino wanted.

I heard that it was discussed with the teachers of the Chess Academy.

Higashino looked at it, and it was much more reasonable than the chess record he found.

After thanking him sincerely, he lost another three games of chess, and Akira Yamazaki left happily and complacently.

Let her participate in the Go game at this time, she will definitely be full of confidence, and then she will lose 2-16.

After all, he played a lot of chess with Higashi Higashi, a bad chess player, and it is conceivable that his level will drop.

Afterwards, Higashino contacted Sasaki and revised the original manuscript he had drawn.

Sasaki was very curious, "The readers can't understand, why are you so serious?"

"I hope that after more than ten years, people will think of "Soul of Go" and not say that "Soul of Go" is serious nonsense." Higashino recalled an animation he liked very much when he was a child-"Go Boy".

The heaven and the earth are united, and the demons are transformed.

It sounds full of momentum, majestic and coaxing, which makes people's blood boil and makes them feel hard.

I didn't realize until I was sensible that everything was fake and special effects were added.

Real Go is not played like that at all.

Immediately, I felt a little depressed, and my childhood seemed not as beautiful as I thought.

"I hope that readers will still love their favorite works after learning about Go through "Soul of Chess."

"If "Soul of Chess" can be serialized, it will only be cut in half, and will not deteriorate."

Sasaki looked at him complicatedly.

"That's great, Higashino-kun, remember this feeling, and never forget it."
