Chapter 68 Awards

Seeing that Wu Guinian took the initiative to admit defeat, Kamakura and the other two finally breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time they were a little confused:

It is obvious that there is only one minute left, and the other party has twelve minutes left. Why doesn’t Wu Guinian delay time as much as his second general?

But a huge joy had already surged into my heart. Shirakawa Katsuhiko rushed up and hugged him. Only then did Chihara Hiroshi wake up.

Then, the four of them were immersed in joy together.

...

"Mr. Ng, they only have one minute left. Why don't you delay? Don't you know that as long as their time runs out, we will win?"

General of Sunset Hill College, the second general, questioned, but their instructor Matsuki did not speak out.

"Are you blaming me?"

Facing these two teammates, Wu Guinian's attitude was very bad: "The winning or losing of Go is not determined by time, but by the number of counts! Do I still need me to teach you this?"

"But you treated Sakurado's Harumaki--"

He looked at his teammate coldly: "Why do you think I am targeting him? Eating snacks during the game is an extremely rude behavior! This is a blasphemy to the way of Go!

And, Kakuda, do you think you have a position to blame me if you lose the second game?"

"you!"

But I couldn't spit out the next words.

"Okay, everyone," Maki walked into the middle and separated them, "It's just a high school league game, no big deal."

As he said that, he looked at Wu Guinian: "Mr. Ng, the vocational exam in a month is the top priority!"

"I understand, Teacher Maki, don't worry!"

The other two looked at each other with a bitter look on their faces: This partiality is too obvious! But no wonder, I heard that Wu Guinian lives in Teacher Matsuki's house...

In the distant viewing area, most people have already run to the field to celebrate and cheer: Since the battle with Sakuradao, the reputation of Sunset Hill Academy has been too bad, so many people have celebrated Kamakura's victory.

But Yaguchiko was recording the chess score quickly on his notebook, and he had roughly outlined the content of the manuscript in his mind.

...

At noon, the four Kamakura and the referee team were invited to have a meal in the cafeteria. It is said that the league champions are always a tradition to hold school meals.

Sakuradao also specially prepared a wide variety of buffet dishes to meet the needs of different groups of people.

The chief referee took the initiative to come up: "Kun Chihara, these two classmates, and this... lady!"

Samen Masumi pulled down the teacher's sleeve, and Yuko Kotokawa finally put down her chopsticks and swallowed the food in her mouth.

"Congratulations to you for winning this year's championship!"

According to the convention, several people politely refused.

The referee couldn't help but sigh: "The game of Chiyuan Jun today is really exciting! Especially the combat ability, it is really rare at this age! As long as you stick to the path of Go in the future, Chiyuan Jun will definitely shine..."

He praised it hard before leaving.

Shirakawa Katsuhiko sighed and said with a smile: "It turns out that the referee can say good things too!"

"Have the referee said anything bad to you before?"

Chihara Hiroshi asked back.

Unexpectedly, he shook his head: "I didn't have the chance to see the referee sent by the competition committee last year..."

Hiroshi Chihara had to remain silent: Yes, Kamakura was eliminated in the group stage last year, and the referee of the tournament committee only appeared in the semi-finals.

He raised the cup full of drinks: "Celebrating our victory today! Also celebrate Shirakawa, you finally overcome the phobia of the arena! Let's work hard to play chess in the future!"

After hearing the last sentence, Shirakawa Katsuhiko, who was originally smiling, froze, and even Samen Masumi's face was a little wrong.

Only Hiroshi Chihara and Yuko Kotokawa who raised their cups were like monks, confused.

"Actually, after this competition, I don't plan to play Go again."

As soon as they opened their mouths, they were surprised.

Samen Masumi looked calm, obviously he had known about this a long time ago.

"Why?"

Hiroshi Chihara asked directly.

Shirakawa Katsuhiko touched the back of her neck and explained apologetically: "Actually, last year, my parents and I made an agreement: as long as we win the league championship, or before college, we must give up Go."

Family reasons?

Neither Chihara Hiroshi nor Kotokawa Yuko tacitly asked again.

Especially Hiroshi Chihara, after hearing this sentence, he immediately remembered the incident of Nishitsuji Dojo two years ago.

"What about your future plans?"

"As for me, my father wants me to inherit his law firm, but I am not interested. My future plan is to devote myself to the financial industry."

This is obviously also affected by the Nishitsuji Dojo incident.

However, Yuko Kutekawa, who was unaware, was a little worried about him: "The current financial industry is in a severe winter. Many securities companies went bankrupt last year, and even the four major securities are in a difficult situation now!

Shirakawa, you have to think clearly!”

Shirakawa Katsuhiko rarely refutes her, after all, what she said is true.

"Okay, don't care about my future anymore! Today, we Kamakura won the league championship again after ten years! Let's cheer!"

He raised the cup, and the other three had to pause the topic and touched the cup.

After dinner, Sakuradao provided them with a lounge.

At 2 pm, the championship award ceremony and closing ceremony were held at the indoor gymnasium in Sakuradao.

At this time, there were not as many participating teams as before, but all the members of the Sakuradao Go Department came here, and the number was even more than the opening ceremony.

The preacher was still the big-bellied principal Yingdao, holding the manuscript and chanting on the stage.

It was not until ten minutes later that we finally arrived at the most important part of this afternoon:

"Next, please invite the executive director of the Tokyo Headquarters of the Japan Chess Institute, the eighth-level professional teacher Sakai Takanori to present the award to the champion!"

The people in the audience were stunned for a moment: If they were the directors of the Kansai Headquarters of the Japan Chess Academy, they could still understand, why did the directors of the Tokyo Headquarters come here?

After a while, applause came out sporadically, and the others quickly echoed and applauded.

The four Kamakura walked onto the stage, and an old man in his fifties walked towards them.

He was wearing a gray suit, his handkerchiefs were neatly stacked in the left pocket of his top, and his hair was combed meticulously and his expression was serious.

First, they were given a medal made of alloy for them, which belonged to them personally, and the subsequent trophy was handed over to the school.

When he put the medal on Hiroshi Chihara, Takayuki Sakai finally smiled a little:

"Kun Chihara, whether it is today, or the opening ceremony and Miss Kiji's chess game, it is very exciting!"

Hiroshi Chihara could only thank him, but after thinking about it for a few seconds, he never remembered when he had seen this old man at the opening ceremony.
Chapter completed!
