"Xiao Ruo? How could you..." Just as the chess game was being cleaned up, the phone in the drawer rang loudly. Siming took out the phone in a daze, still evolving the chess game just now in his mind.

"Guangyi..." Hiji's voice was full of helplessness, this guy is really obsessed with Go, "Did you play chess again and forget what you said?"

Did I say something?Siming, who had just pulled out his mind from the chess game, thought a little aggrieved, ah!It's agreed, give Xiao Ruo a call every day to report that she's safe. "That...hehe." She smiled a little embarrassedly, "However, Xiao Ruo, isn't it too exaggerated to call once a day! How about calling once a week? I'm in the Chess Academy, and nothing will happen."

"Really? Then who was it last Saturday who forgot to eat while playing chess and was so hungry? Who was it last Tuesday who played chess until late and couldn't get up the next day and had a low fever? Yes, when I first arrived in China, who was it, who didn't know to report the safety of my family for several days..."

"Okay, okay, I call every day!" I was really afraid of Xiao Ruo's nagging.Why didn't I realize that Xiao Ruo had the potential to be a baby daddy before, bah, what a baby daddy, if he were a baby daddy, he wouldn't be a baby.

"Guangyi, take care of yourself. I'm not urging you to call, you know, everyone wants to know about your situation. Especially Grandpa Kuwahara, he is not in good health, don't worry him too much. It's getting late , Hurry up and have dinner, don't feel hungry again..."

"I see, Xiao Ruo, don't treat me like a child."

"Children are better than you, at least they know how to find something to eat when they are hungry." Riji couldn't help complaining, "Don't forget about other things after playing chess."

"Got it, got it, Xiao Ruo, you are so wordy."

Hearing the other party's muttering and complaining, Hiji almost spat out a mouthful of old blood. He still thought I was long-winded, and he didn't think about anyone who couldn't even take care of himself.However, thinking of the other party's more and more open emotions in front of him now, Hiji couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.This guy is getting used to his company more and more.

"Xiao Ruo, who are you calling?" A hand stretched out from behind to grab Riji's cell phone.Hiji pressed his hand, and while avoiding the people behind him, he quickly deleted the call record just now.

"It's nothing. Are you idle?" Raising the corners of his eyes, he looked at his elder brother who had played with him a few tricks.

"Really, the bigger you are, the less cute you are." Riji Cong put his arms around his younger brother's neck, "Look at your expression just now, are you a girlfriend? Tsk tsk, the tenderness on that face will frighten your tennis club members. "

"Where is the girlfriend?" Hiji shook off his brother's hand and walked towards his room without looking back.

Looking at the back of his younger brother leaving with a little worry, Xiao Ruo, what are you thinking about Guangyi... Grandpa Kuwahara safely left Guangyi at our house, you don't want to do something shocking to the world and frighten others Father.

He hung up the phone, rubbed his hot face, and looked at the clock on the table, it was almost five o'clock.No wonder that guy is calling again.

[Is it Xiao Ruo? ] The young man from Chiba raised his head from the chess record, 【Ah, it's almost time for dinner!Hey, Asi, shall we go to the snack street that Dou Yi mentioned today? 】

Siming raised his eyebrows, he probably didn't have the time.Shaking his head, "Ask Dou Yi for the route tomorrow before going. Although I also lived in this city in my previous life, you know that it is completely unreliable to count on me."

【All right. 】The young man from Chiba lowered his head boredly, 【Then go and eat, I'll read the chess record again. 】

Well, if you don't eat a meal, no, you can't starve to death if you don't eat a meal.Siming shrugged and hung the satchel on his body, "Are you really not going out?"

[No. 】

"Then I'm going out. I'll study Dad's chess records with you when I come back later."

Lock the door and go to the elevator.

"Yo, Chiba."

Siming turned his head and saw Yang Hai coming out wearing a jacket, "Yang Hai, are you going out for dinner too?"

"Well, I'm tired of eating in the cafeteria for a few days." Yang Hai had a clear smile in his eyes. Although the Chess Academy is responsible for the daily life of all the chess players who stay overnight, the food quality in the cafeteria can be imagined .

"Ah." Siming was a little embarrassed. Ridai and Kanako had been taking care of the food at home. Not to mention the balanced nutrition, the taste was also very good.Bingdi's cafeteria also has many varieties and colors. Although he feels that he is not a person who eats food, Siming also wants to go out to improve the food after eating in the cafeteria for more than two weeks.

"Take you to eat something good." Yang Hai pressed the elevator button and put his hand on Siming's shoulder.

After a while, the elevator door opened.

"What are you going to eat?" Yang Hai was a little over a head taller than Siming, and had grown a little taller in the past few years because he trained with Riji and the others. However, compared to those sports boys, Siming's height was obviously a bit small.

"Go and eat our Yunnan specialty snacks."

"Crossing Bridge Rice Noodles?" Siming's only knowledge of Yunnan snacks is Crossing Bridge Rice Noodles.The reason why I was so impressed was that it was the snack that the foodie cousin of the second uncle's family wanted to eat, and every time she ate it, she would complain about it.Because she burns her tongue every time because of the umami of rice noodle soup.

"Smart." Yang Hai had an expression of "you are very good".

"That rice noodle, is it really cooked by putting the raw meat down?" Poor Siming had a medicine jar in his previous life. Not to mention the delicacies of Yunnan, even the local delicacies of Beijing, he didn't have the chance to try them all.

"of course."

"so amazing."

"That's because there is a layer of boiling oil on the surface of the soup, and the meat slices are relatively thin, so it's easy to cook."

"Oh, I see."

Yang Hai took Siming to a small snack bar.In addition to rice noodles, it seems that some people eat fried noodles, fried rice and the like here.

Because he was completely unfamiliar with this meal, Siming felt relieved and left the dinner to Yang Hai to decide.

After ordering with the boss, the two waited for a while, and the boss came over with the plate.A bowl of soup, a pot of rice noodles, and a dish.

Siming watched Yang Hai's movements, and learned how to put the meat slices into the soup, stirring gently with chopsticks.

"Generally, when the meat turns white, it's almost done." Yang Hai said to Siming while putting the meat in a bowl.After putting in the raw meat, put in the char siu and other cooked meat, and then pour in the remaining vegetables and rice noodles.

"Spicy food?"

"Not really edible." Siming shook his head slightly.

"If you don't like spicy food, don't put spicy oil in it. Of course, I personally recommend adding some. The weather is not so cold now. If you come to eat rice noodles in cold weather, you should put more spicy oil. If you can eat it, you will sweat."

Siming stared at Yang Hai as he poured two spoonfuls of chili oil into the bowl. In an instant, the clear soup became prosperous.After looking down at his rather refreshing bowl of soup, Siming decided not to let it go.

After offering sacrifices to the Temple of the Five Viscera, Siming remembered the physical exercise that Riji had been telling him to insist on before.Anyway, punching or something is impossible, let's find a place to run or something.

"A place to exercise?" Yang Hai looked at Siming suspiciously, "Ah, there is a small park near the Chess Academy, you can go there, run and do anything. There are many old men and women doing Tai Chi, practicing swords and so on. Yes. You can also learn a trick or two from them when you have time."

Siming shook his head, "I have to go back to take the final exam in July. How can I learn in such a short amount of time?"

"Simple movements can still be learned, and you are not required to become a Tai Chi master."

Early the next morning, holding the map that Yang Hai had given him, Siming quickly found the small park he was talking about.In fact, this park can't be considered small, probably because there are more people exercising, so it tends to look small.

Plug the earphones into the phone, turn on the music, and slowly run around the flat ground in the park.After not exercising for a long time, Siming felt a little short of breath after only ten minutes of running.He stopped behind an old man who was doing Tai Chi, and while calming down his breathing, he watched the old man punching unhurriedly.

"Young man, are you interested in Tai Chi?" The old man suddenly stopped and looked at Siming with a smile.

"Hey..." Startled by the old man's sudden utterance, Siming smiled shyly, "Yesterday, I heard the advice from the seniors of the Chess Academy that you can learn Tai Chi to exercise your body..."

The old man looked at Siming carefully for a while, "You are a professional chess player."

"Eh." Siming nodded.

"How many paragraphs?"

"Seven paragraphs."

"Oh? Little guy, how old are you? I don't think you're an adult yet. How long have you been in the band? You're so powerful."

"Not anymore." Blushing and waving his hands, "I've only been in the band for over a year, but last year I had better luck and entered the celebrity round-robin competition."

"Celebrity round robin?" The old man pondered for a while, "You are a Japanese player."

"kindness."

"Young man, are you free to play a game of chess with me this afternoon?"

"Have."

"Okay, we'll still be here that afternoon, see you soon." After finishing speaking, the old man closed his eyes and started punching again, ignoring Siming.

He looked suspiciously at the old man punching him for a while, and seeing that the other party stopped talking, he was able to catch his breath, and Siming returned to the chess academy along the way he had come.

After finishing his morning study and defeating Dou Yi again, Siming made do with a meal in the cafeteria.After lunch break, I ran to the small park to find the old man I met in the morning.

When I ran to the place where I met the old man in the morning, the other party was already sitting in the gazebo playing chess with another old man with gray hair and wearing a dark blue coat.

"Grandpa, I'm sorry, I'm late." Siming waited until the match between the two was over before he came forward to say hello.It can't be said that Siming came late, after all, he didn't make an appointment at that time, but the old man seemed to have been waiting here for a while.

"Just woke up from lunch break." The old man took off his glasses and waved his hand at Siming, "Come on, come on, let's play with me."

After Wang Xing's guidance before, Siming still likes to set traps in the middle, but, in terms of efficiency, it has improved a lot.The old man's chess is very weird, it seems to be alluding to something.Siming didn't dare to be careless for a while.

After evading several traps one after another, and defeating several attacks by Siming, the situation suddenly turned to the old man's side.

I have met a master again.Siming stared at the chessboard with his eyes wide open, constantly looking for places to attack.

At present, it seems that the white chess of the old man should be dominant, but the black chess is not without the possibility of a comeback. Where should the next move be played?

"Let's go here first today." The old man stopped Siming's pawn that was about to drop, "Little guy, what's your name?"

"Chiba Koichi."

"Qianye?" The old man was a little surprised, "Who did you learn chess from?"

"At the beginning, I learned from the seniors of the school, and after entering the stage, I learned from Teacher Ogata Seiji."

"That's it." The old man nodded, then looked up at the old man in the dark blue coat standing behind Siming watching, "Old Lu, what do you think?"

The old man called "Old Lu" nodded.The old man who played chess with Siming took out a sticky note and scribbled an address to Siming, "Come here to find us tomorrow, we will continue today's chess game."

"Oh." It can be finished, why do you have to save it until tomorrow.Although he was puzzled, Siming had no intention of disobeying the old man.He nodded obediently, and after saying goodbye to the old man, he watched the two leave before returning to the chess academy.

[A Si, what do these two old men mean? ] The Chiba boy who was watching the battle from the sidelines was even more confused.

"I don't know, anyway, I will know tomorrow."
