Shinichi Kuri did not lift the bag, but stood up, stretched his waist and sighed with satisfaction:

"Okay, let's just get here."

He did not intend to tell that this game was actually the fourth game of Hideyuki Fujisawa against Kobayashi Koichi in the throne battle this week.

He was studying the chess score he had just obtained, but Chihara Hiroshi's method gave him another idea.

Hiroshi Chihara stood up, suddenly, his breathing tightened and his heart trembled violently.

He saw a strange girl standing on tiptoe and sneaking in from outside the door.

The girl is slightly slim, wearing a white shirt and black trousers, her hair is tied into a bun with a blue ribbon, and only one strand of her temples is hanging down.

His facial features are also beautiful, and because he just came in from outside, the blush on his face had not yet dissipated. With his sneaky expression, he looked a little playful and cute.

She saw someone notice her, and quickly placed her index finger in front of her lips and signaled him not to speak.

Two seconds later, accompanied by a scream—

"Masuke, Masuke... You haven't seen me for a long time!"

"Ah! Sister Ma Yi, don't touch it..."

The girl hugged Samen Masumi from behind and kept kneading her hands: "Oh! Why did your breasts grow bigger again after not seeing each other for only a few weeks?"

She stared at Katsuhiko Shirakawa who was on the side with viciousness: "Kokashihiko, did you do it?"

Shirakawa Katsuhiko stood up with an innocent look on his face: "Sister Mai, although I have a boyfriend and Masumi, I am not as good as you imagined."

The girl cut out with disgust: "Is the useless man still limited to pulling his hands!"

Samen Masumi's struggles were useless.

The two girls played for a long time before finally calming down.

The strange girl poured herself a cup of herbal tea and drank it all in one sip.

Kuri Shinichi asked, “How is it?”

"Oh, I lost." The girl was a little depressed, "I thought I had a chance, but I didn't expect to lose in the end!"

"You will review it later, I'll help you see."

At this time, the girl's eyes turned to Hiroshi Chihara and Yuko Kotogawa: "Hello, I am Mai Nishitsuji, who are you?"

Shirakawa Katsuhiko introduced the two.

Mai Nishitsuji nodded: "Shin-first brother, since Miss Kotokawa is here to find you, you should take her around the dojo!"

Shinichi Kuri agreed readily and led Yuko Kotokawa out.

She took off the ribbon from her head, and her black hair scattered on her shoulders like tassels, all the way to her waist:

"Yeah, it's much more comfortable."

Seeing her fair neck and delicate upper body, Chihara Hiroshi's face turned slightly red, and he hurriedly moved away his eyes, but he happened to meet Katsuhiko Shirakawa's gaze.

He smiled meaningfully and whispered in his ear: "How is it? Sister Mai is beautiful?"

Seeing that he was embarrassed to answer, Shirakawa Katsuhiko continued, "Don't worry, as a friend, I will definitely support you! In addition, friendly reminders, Sister Mai doesn't have a boyfriend..."

"Xiao Katsuhiko, what are you talking about? Masumichan, come and comb my hair for me."

Samen Masumi looked at her vigilantly: "Sister Mai, you won't be messing around again, are you?"

Mai Nishitsuji snorted, with disdain in her eyes: "Do you think I am Kokashihiko? I absolutely keep my word!"

Samen Masumi came behind her, took the comb, and while combing her hair, she said with some envy: "Sister Mai, your hair is so good."

"I'm so troublesome. I have to take care of myself every day and I have to tie it when I go out. I'm thinking about cutting it with scissors!"

Samen Masumi smiled but said nothing. She had heard such complaints many times, but her long hair is still good.

"...Ma Yi's birthday, let me think about it. Yes, it's... she was in elementary school...Chinese junior high school...well, she passed the vocational exam when she was in the third grade of China and never entered school..."

Shirakawa Katsuhiko wanted to continue talking, but found that the two people who had been away for less than ten minutes were back.

Shinichi Kuri smiled, but nothing changed; Yuko Kotokawa also smiled, but seemed a little reluctant.

"Have you started playing chess yet?"

"Shin-first brother, Miss Kutakawa, are you back so soon?"

Mai Nishitsuji skillfully tied her hair into a braid, threw it behind her, and then sat in front of the chessboard to quickly review it.

Except for the sad Yuko Kotokawa, everyone else gathered at the chess table, while Shinichi Kuri sat opposite her.

After watching the review in silence, Kuri Shinichi asked: "At the beginning, you still had the advantage, but in the middle, you gradually became a disadvantage. Do you know where you made a mistake?"

Mai Nishitsuji had obviously thought about it and pointed out several chess pieces in a row.

But Shinichi Kuri seemed not very satisfied, and asked again, and Mai Nishitsuji hesitated to point out a few tricks.

Suddenly, he raised his head and looked at the three people watching: "You guys talk about it, too."

Mai Nishitsuji couldn't help but complain: I am a professional chess player after all, what can the three of them see? The new first brother looked down on him too much!

Sure enough, as she expected, Shirakawa Katsuhiko and Samen Masumi who answered first did not give any new answers.

But the last young man named "Koshi Chihara" was silent for a moment.

"It's okay, even if it's wrong, it's okay."

Kuri Shinichi comforted him.

Hiroshi Chihara finally spoke, pointing to a chess piece in the corner: "This move is a bad hand - well, it can't be said to be a bad hand. It's just that from this move, there was a little advantage in the situation, and it began to be reversed by the opponent."

Mai Nishitsuji couldn't help but say: "This move prevented the other party from expanding its power, and at the same time strengthened its connection with this piece of chess piece. What's wrong with it..."

Chihara Hiroshi's heart beat violently, and he didn't dare to look at her again, and his eyes looked at the chessboard.

Seeing that he was refuted, Mai Nishitsuji turned red and couldn't help but feel a little apologized and didn't say anything more.

Shinichi Kuri did not make any comments, but said something unexpected to everyone present: "Since that's the case, simply restore the chessboard to the move that Chihara-kun said, and Chihara-kun sat in your position and you took the white chess to deal with it, how about?"

Mai Nishitsuji looked at him in confusion, not understanding the intention of his proposal. She thought with some amusement: Does the new brother agree with the boy's statement?

Shirakawa Katsuhiko poked Chihara Hiroshi who was still in a daze with his elbow: "Stop being idle, what's the proposal of Shinichi?"

"If... Miss Nishitsuji has no objection, I have no objection either."

Chihara Hiroshi said with his head down.

Shinichi Kuri looked at Mai Nishitsuji opposite him.
