"No...this...
"The Chess Association and Gezhou actually gave Rei Uesaka a wild card spot? !
“Why is this!!!”
At 7:30 pm on June 5, in an ordinary residential area in Jinling City, Suhu Province.
Yang Manjing, who was visiting someone else's house that night, suddenly felt a little bit off guard when he saw the message that Yi Guo had just popped up.
The little witch has been quite unhappy recently:
The day before yesterday, she held back her energy to challenge Queen Zhao Tian again, but was crushed by Rui Zhao.
Yesterday Liu Yuhong went out to fight, but in the end Guanzi failed to come back again. Today the two of them took the high-speed train home together.
It was so easy to come to my old teammates’ house to visit, chat and relax at night. Who knew that the wild card thing could cause trouble for me!
When the Suhu team showed up at the second station, they immediately chattered endlessly and were full of grievances:
"If Rui Zhao is given a wild card, I can barely bear it! Or if it's given to Sister Yu Hong and Little Sheep, I'll be convinced.
"But what about that little crybaby Rei Ueban? ! I killed her so badly in the third round of the league, but she actually entered the Tongge Cup?
“I have never played in this World Championship before!”
Liu Yuhong, who has rarely seen such a noisy young player in his team recently, could only comfort him:
"Ah, after all, in domestic competitions, if there are two wild cards, one must be inside and one outside...
"Since the domestic card has won Long Bo, the other card must be given to foreign countries..."
Although she has some opinions on the matter of giving the wild card to the Japanese, she also knows , after all, the most important thing is to calm down the emotions of the second station.
“But we can’t give this little cry bag to Rei Uesaka!”
The little witch still pouted:
“What do you mean by ‘once in four hundred years’ , I can’t even see it!
“Sister Wang, don’t you think so!”
“That, Jingjing!”
Queen Mulan immediately dissuaded her and said:
“We finally came to Sister Wang’s house As a guest, don’t cause trouble for her!
“Sister Wang is still pregnant with the baby! ”
"Ah..."
Only then did Yang Manjing react and apologized to Wang Haocheng who was sitting aside:
"Yes, I'm sorry, Sister Wang, I didn't mean to..."< br>
"It's okay! There's no need to be so careful!"
Wang Haocheng, wearing loose home clothes, said with a smile:
"It's only been two months. In fact, everything is not much different from before. Don't think of me as so fragile!
"But Jingjing, don't look down on Rei Uesaka so much.
"I watched some of her chess games at home during this time. To be honest, it makes sense for Japan to attach so much importance to her..."
"But the previous third round of siege A, I really don’t think she is very powerful..."
"That’s because you are getting stronger, Jingjing!"
Wang Haocheng’s words were half-smiling and half-helpless:
“When Rei Uesaka and Mr. Wu were playing, they were half-hearted about winning and losing, and they only lost at the end!
“Considering that she was At the age of twelve or thirteen, such a performance is really impressive!
"It's just that in the past six months, your progress has been faster and faster, and it has become more and more stable, so you seem to be mediocre!"
"Ah..."
The little witch opened her mouth and thought for a while, feeling... Sister Wang was not quite right!
Now her level has widened the gap with other women's sixth-dan level, and she is firmly ranked among the top four women in the country. Moreover, the original problem of poor stability has also been greatly improved. It is completely unique among the women's Weijia 2 stations.
“Well... maybe I have become more aggressive in practicing chess in the past six months...
“After all...it’s okay if I can’t catch up with Sister Rui for the time being. After all, she is better than me. More than two years older...
"But if you don't work hard, it will be too embarrassing to be suppressed by her when she goes downhill in the future!"
Seeing Yang Manjing whispering the reasons why he thought he had made progress, Wang Haocheng smiled and nodded, and added:
"Well, Jingjing, that's fine if you have this idea!
"Now that she is with the Pohu team, we also have a spy! I will tell you if there is any trouble with her later!
"But..."
Speaking of this, Wang Haocheng paused and said slightly:
"Jing Jing, you...
"Do you have any plans to wear armor like Rui Zhao? "
…
…
"Shindo, when we return to China, the three of you will help take care of Dianli-chan. ”
At the same time, in a tavern in Dongdu City, Japan.
Sitting in the cubicle, Natsukawa Aoi took a swig of beer, and then began to tell her old friend beside her:
“Rei-chan is a good child, but she is still young. Emotions fluctuate easily.
“After China lost to that little witch in the third round of siege, she even made a video call to me to cry.
"If I really cry again this time, please help comfort me as soon as possible."
In addition to the female stream Honinbo herself, there were three other people sitting in the private room. They happen to be Hiroaki Shindo, Takuya Ichijo, and Toruichiro Ueno, the three most powerful chess players in Japan today. Based on recent results, these three people were directly selected as seeds by the Japanese Chess Academy and entered the Tongge Cup roster. They will go to Huaxia Gezhou tomorrow.
But what is more surprising this time is that Natsukawa Aoi herself, who has been at the top of the Japanese women's team for a long time, failed to qualify from the women's group preliminaries this time.
She unexpectedly lost to Haruna Akakura in the finals, so she could only give advice to the grown men in front of her.
“Don’t worry, eldest sister!”
Before Hiroaki Shindo could answer, Ichijo Takuya on the side took the lead and said:
"Just because Rei-chan wanted to avenge me immediately after seeing me lose to a disastrous defeat, I will definitely take good care of her!"
...In the end, it was another disastrous defeat, and she became the little crying bag of Queen Zhao.
Hiroaki Shindo, who was also present, raised his eyebrows and added quietly in his heart.
And... Ichijo, don't be so sentimental!
At the beginning, Rei-chan probably just thought it was cool to say this, and she didn't really think about you...
However, even though Takuya Ichijo expressed his position quickly, Natsukawa Aoi was not too relieved, and turned around. And looked at Shindo:
"Boguang-sama, is this okay for you?"
"Hey...
"I told you to just call 'Shindo' Ah..."
Shindo Hiroaki complained a little, but he still agreed:
"That's natural, Uesaka 2nd Dan is the hope of our entire Japanese Chess Academy.
"Like this time, the preliminaries on the mountain Although he lost, the chess institute finally gave this precious wild card to Uesaka, and the level of importance it showed was average. "
Hearing this, Natsukawa Aoi nodded in agreement - the Japanese Chess Academy has indeed spared no effort in cultivating Rei Uesaka, a recognized future supernova.
As Hiroaki Shindo said just now , although the Tongge Cup is a world championship held by China, the selection of the wild card this time is in the hands of the Japanese Chess Academy
The reason is very simple: this wild card is the compensation that Lu Wenjie promised to the Japanese Chess Academy after Lei Qi beat Takuya Ichijo in the Nongshim Cup. It would not be an exaggeration to say that he had paid for it with the blood and tears of the Japanese chess master and the face of the entire Japanese chess world.
As for this wild card with such a heavy price, the top management of the chess academy did not hesitate to give it to Rei Uesaka instead of Yoshimoto Yamayama, the last person in the "Reiwa Three Birds". It can be said that they have already paid attention to it. The priority has been raised to a rather outrageous level.
"Well, I'll be relieved if you three agree!"
Xia Chuan smiled and said:
"If I'm not afraid of your jokes: in the past two years... I'm starting to feel really old.
"Last year, when I lost to Yang Manjing in the quarterfinals of the Wuyue Cup, I could still find some excuse, saying that I had just had my teeth extracted and was not in good condition.
"But this year, Rui Zhao won the air-fan battle, and the title of female celebrity in April was I lost to Asa-chan in the battle, and I didn’t win against Haruna in the Tonge Cup qualifiers a few days ago...
"Maybe...I won’t be able to help the chess academy earn any good results in the future to save face. . But the overall level of Asa-chan and Haruna is indeed not competitive with China and South Korea, so I am really concerned about Rei-chan’s growth. Please understand.”
Speaking of this, Japan. The female streamer Honinbo smiled helplessly.
The famous generals grow old and the beauties grow old, which makes people feel a bit uncomfortable.
At this moment, Shindo Hiroaki took over the conversation seriously and said:
"Natsukawa, you were able to block the winning streak of Empress Akira last year, which already helped the chess academy a lot!
"Let's take a rest! You women have maintained your face for so long, it’s time for us men to take the stage! "
Xia Chuankui was quite surprised by these words, and immediately reminded:
"Hey, Master Boguang!
"You are already thirty-five this year!"
"What's wrong?"
Hiroaki Shindo, who has always been elegant, rarely showed a rather positive attitude:< br>
“Chairman Shang Chaotian of the Chinese Chess Association can win the world championship at the age of thirty-three. I shouldn’t say that I can win the championship at the age of thirty-five. It’s not too much to reach the finals, right?
"Let me tell you, I have been fighting less for titles recently, and I feel like I can allocate more energy to the World Championships! Maybe there will be better results!
"What's more, even if I really can't survive! We still have Ichijo and Ueno!"
Speaking of this, Shindo turned his eyes to the two juniors, with a bit of expectation in his eyes.
However, facing the gaze cast by Hiroaki Shindo, Toraichiro Ueno's expression immediately felt awkward.
Compared to the more passionate Haga Ichijo and Yamada who are prone to emotional ups and downs, Ueno is undoubtedly the most rational one among the "Reiwa Three Feathered Birds".
In the past two decades since 2015, among the Japanese chess players, Hiroaki Shindo, who was at the end of his peak, reached the LIG final once in 2017. Apart from this, there has never been another Japanese chess player. Hands appeared in the finals of the World Series.
In his opinion, based on the achievements of his own players over the years, reaching the semi-finals of the World Championships would require a lot of celebration with gongs and drums. Isn't reaching the finals just a fantasy?
Now I just bully other little girls and I can still control it!
Ueno Toraichiro, who had just received a "small task" from the chess academy recently, couldn't help but secretly thought to himself.
However, although Ueno felt that these words were difficult to answer, fortunately there was a hot-blooded Erbaga beside him, which did not make the atmosphere awkward.
The current Japanese chess master Takuya Ichijo said without saying a word, he immediately said with great momentum and seriousness:
"Yeah! No problem!
"Sister, you have worked hard these years! It’s time to take a good rest!
“Right now, both the elder Boguang-sama and the young Rei-chan are working so hard, how can we, as the backbone, be left behind!
” As Rei-chan said The same sentence as: It is our duty to restore the glory of Japan!
“In this Tongge Cup and Yingyi Cup, I will try my best to show the style of the Japanese chess master!”
"Well, look, Natsukawa! I'm right!"
Seeing his junior's very condescending attitude, Shindo Hiroaki took advantage of the situation and looked at his old friend again.
Natsukawa Aoi, who had always had a low opinion of "Reiwa Sanbaka", was stunned, and rarely smiled and encouraged from the bottom of his heart:
"Okay!
“It’s up to you this time! A chess master! "(End of Chapter)
