The other party's tone was a little regretful.

The chairman of Kuri Shin-ichi, of course, refers to the chairman of Kansai Chess Academy.

Hiroshi Chihara didn't answer his words:

After all, it is a thing of the past, and it is not very useful to mention it any longer.

However, Shinichi Kuri just mentioned it and did not continue.

Next, a few people sat on the sofa in the living room and were naturally talking about Go.

Shirakawa Katsuhiko mentioned the appointment of Hero Otake with some excitement.

Although it was just something that happened yesterday, as long as people who pay a little attention to Go learned about it from various channels.

"Yes, it's about to start tomorrow." Chihara Hiroshi replied.

Kuri Shin was stunned for a moment and said:

"So fast?"

Shirakawa Katsuhiko and Samen Masumi were also a little surprised.

Mai Nishitsuji helped explain:

"When Chihara first arrived here in the morning, the Japanese Chess Institute had already called to ask about this."

Hiroshi Chihara added:

"This month, I'm probably free in these two days. Senior Daizhu should have taken this into consideration."

Jiulixin nodded:

I participated in professional competitions in the first year and was a chess player with this kind of strength, so I will definitely be able to stay until the late stage of the schedule, which is not incomprehensible.

"You should participate in this year's celebrity battle, right?"

Chihara Hiroshi said "yes" and said:

"In addition to the Fujitsu Cup trials, the Newcomer King War's competition, and several smaller competitions, the schedule for this month is already full."

The few people who were listening to each other, especially Katsuhiko Shirakawa, couldn't help but open their mouths and said:

"Haozhi, you've worked too hard, are you?"

In this era, professional chess players generally have one to two games a week.

It's a show a day, it's too exaggerating.

Hiroshi Chihara doesn't feel anything:

The frequency of using the "Peak of the Road" is also once a day. Such a schedule can make the best use of this skill.

But obviously I can't say this reason, so I evaded:

"If there is no competition, I will have nothing to do. Just treat it as a normal practical training."

Everyone looked at each other, not sure what to say:

Treat the competition as practical training, but if it were his words, he would be qualified to say such things.

Shinichi Kuri's mentality is a bit complicated:

Previously, he was known as the leader of the young generation of Kansai Go, and this name was taken away by Hiroshi Chihara last year.

Although he said he didn't mind, how could he really not mind?

However, after this year, he gradually adjusted.

"I have signed up for this year's celebrity battle. Then we will meet in a round-robin competition."

Hiroshi Chihara nodded vigorously.

Half an hour later, a sumptuous dish was delivered.

Shinichi Kuri brought a bottle of sake and poured himself a glass.

Shirakawa Katsuhiko was clamoring to have a drink, but she retreated under the threat of her girlfriend...

...

At one o'clock in the morning, Chihara Hiroshi pulled his suitcase that was not too heavy.

There were only three girls who saw farewell at the door.

Shinichi Kuri got drunk, but Shirakawa Katsuhiko finally had a secret drink, but it was a drink that was poured into one cup.

Chihara Saki and Mai Nishitsuji came out to see him off, but Chihara Hiroshi didn't find it strange.

But Samen Masumi endured his sleep and waited for this time, which was indeed beyond his expectations.

Water vapor seemed to rise in Chihara's eyes, and he grabbed the necklace on his chest and said:

"Brother, don't be too tired after returning to Tokyo, you must have a good rest!"

Hiroshi Chihara agreed:

"Don't worry, you must study hard and strive to get into Tokyo."

Chihara Sakura smiled confidently and said:

"Brother, don't worry!"

Mai Nishitsuji said:

"Chenhara, after returning to Tokyo, play chess well. Things outside the chessboard, including rumors that often spread, are not necessary to pay attention to."

Chihara Hiroshi said "yes" and said:

"I understand what you said. I will try my best to refuse media interviews in the future."

This time, what happened in Kansai's "Chess Road" also taught him a lesson.

Just like in later generations, if someone really wants to do something, pinch the head and end it, it will be nothing to reporters who are good at playing word games.

Mai Nishitsuji nodded and said:

"Those people are all for the sake of ratings and newspaper sales, and they won't care about your reputation, so the best way is to ignore them."

Her grandmother is also a well-known female chess player in Japan. When she passed away a few years ago, she was taken out by many reporters to consume it.

She hated the behavior of Kansai Chess Club.

"I see."

Chihara Hiroshi looked at Samen Masumi.

To be honest, the two sides only had a short time, and were not familiar with each other, at least not this kind of friendship that "stayed until late at night to say goodbye".

Samen Masumi's eyes were a little wandering, and he just said:

"I'll come to see you for Katsuhiko."

"Uh, thank you."

Seeing that the other party seemed not to say anything again, Qianhara Hiroshi said goodbye to the others, turned around, and was about to leave-

"besides……"

He turned around and looked at Samen Masumi who was making a sound, and said:

"besides?"

Samen Masumi was a little hesitant and choked again.

Hiroshi Chihara looked at Mai Nishitsuji, meaning 'What's wrong with this child'.

Mai Nishitsuji beside her asked softly:

"Masasumi, is it not convenient for us to listen to what you want to say?"

Samen Masumi looked unspeakable and said:

"Not really, it's just..."

Seeing this situation, Mai Nishitsuji continued to ask:

"Is it related to Katsuhiko?"

Samen Masumi snorted softly.

Chihara Saki and Mai Nishitsuji looked at each other.

Qianyuan Haozhi was like a monk, confused.

However, Mai Nishitsuji's words immediately followed him, which shocked him:

"Masumi-chan, you're not trying to cheat, right?"

Chihara Sato stared at her, and at the same time, his little hands grabbed Chihara Hiroshi's arm.

Samen Masumi blushed, stomped his feet and said angrily:

"Sister Mai, what are you talking about?"
