Cherish the time

Although Shinto was a little terrified by Ogata's last meaningful speech at the time, when the results of the team competition came out, he immediately forgot about it.

Having returned to the camp a long time ago, he patted Taya on the shoulder who had just finished the chess game, "I knew you would win."

Taya glanced at the chessboard he and Ogata used to play, and smiled slightly.

The people behind him also cheered excitedly, as if they were the ones who won the chess.

The host appeared in the middle of the two camps in a very timely manner, "After a fierce fight, it seems that we have drawn today's winning side."

He Gu has already called out excitedly.

"But... as you can see, there are currently three teams in Bai Fang..." The host's words brought the restless He Gu back to reality, "So, we still have the last round of small question-and-answer sessions …is for three chosen friends."

"Huh?" Fujisaki obviously wasn't ready for this.

"The topic is very simple~ Please come to the front of the team with the three selected friends." The host clapped his hands, "Hurry up~"

Kazuya and Yamazaki exchanged glances, and pushed Fujisaki, who shrank back, to the front of the team.

"Wow!" Shinto was caught off guard by Fujisaki, and he rushed forward a step or two, teasing helplessly, "... so active."

"Xiaoguang..." Fujisaki looked at Shindo timidly, "I..."

"Okay, okay! Believe that you are right!" Shinto stopped her next words by pressing her shoulder, "Listen carefully to the questions!"

"It seems that the three groups are all ready," the host looked around, "Then, please listen to the last question—the big question that determines the winner!" Then he snapped his fingers very handsomely.

A group of staff immediately turned on the projector that had been moved out of nowhere.

So a big chess record was projected onto the plain white paper door.

"Please look at the chess record projected on the paper door!" The host turned sideways and flamboyantly stretched out his right arm, "This is our last question!"

"This is a game of chess between Mr. Wu Qingyuan and Master Honinbo Hideya in the eighth year of the Showa era. It is also known as the 'Battle of the Century'."

"At that time, a new genre called "Wu Qingyuan style" suddenly emerged in the Japanese Go world. This genre followed nature and did not follow the ancient methods, which had a certain impact on the Japanese Go world at that time."

"The emergence of this new school made Honinbo Hideya, who was the supreme status in the Japanese Go world at that time, have to stand up and express his opinions."

"At that time, Xiuzai hadn't played against Wu yet, but after reading a few chess records, he came to an unconventional and unadvisable conclusion."

"As soon as this evaluation came out, the old and the new factions began to attack each other."

"In order to quell this trouble, the leaders of the two factions—that is, Honinbo Shuya and Wu Qingyuan, the two masters—agreed to have a match to decide the outcome."

"Although I don't know how they negotiated at that time, in short, there is one item in the agreement: Xiuzai can stop the game for an unlimited number of times and without a time limit. After the stop, you can go back and think carefully or discuss with others before making a move. , and Wu does not have this power.”

The host's introduction was quite fascinating, so although most people in the audience had heard the story, few people made other voices.

"At the beginning of this game, Mr. Wu started the game with 3, with Tian Yuan as the second move. The opening was so strange that Xiuzai was forced to stop immediately, thinking hard about what to do next."

"At that time, some media said: The two played against each other only twice, and Xiuzai called a stop. From this, we can get a glimpse of how long the future of this game of chess will be."

"The fact is the same. This game of chess between Xiuzai and Wu lasted for four months."

"Because Wu's chess strength is strong, his observation is subtle, and his overall view is very outstanding. During the four months of the battle with Xiuya, he always had the upper hand. This made the Japanese chess fans at that time excited and worried, and even made the whole of Japan The world of Go is fluctuating for this game."

"It went on and on until -- 1 moves."

"After this move, White's advantage was slight, and Honinbo's team seized this opportunity to pursue the victory, and finally won with a slight advantage of one piece."

The host paused, and the chess record on the paper door was switched, deleting all the chess pieces after 160 moves.

"Although Wu lost that game," the host smiled slightly, "but after that, the Go world basically recognized that under such circumstances, Wu actually had a way to win the game."

"Then, if Heizi wants to win, where should he bet next?"

"Well, this question is easy to say...it's not easy, and difficult to say, it's not too difficult." The host continued to chatter at the front, "If you don't know, I'm afraid you won't be able to figure it out in a short time... So give the three chess players 5 minutes to think."

"start the timer."

This is an old question.

And for those who are familiar with Wu Qingyuan or Honinbo Shuzai, it is hardly a problem.

Mr. Saito didn't even lift his eyelids, it seemed that he was confident in his performance.

The other Mr. Xun was scratching his hair tangledly, and kept looking behind him.

As for Ms. Akira Fujisaki...

At first I was tearful as if I was about to cry, but as I listened, suddenly it was as if the light bulb on my head was ignited, and the whole person's spirit was lifted.

She turned her head and secretly stuck out her tongue towards Jin Teng, her face was full of joyful smiles.

Shinto also laughed.

He didn't expect such a coincidence to happen.

The battle of the century between Wu Qingyuan and Honinbo Hideya - this is exactly the chess record he showed Mingming last night.

Although he only talked to Mingming to the ninety-odd moves, he didn't know what was in his mind. Before going to bed, he skipped the middle part and explained to her the subtlety of the 160 moves. place and how to deal with it.

——Probably felt that...if I didn't tell her personally the finishing touch of the Battle of the Century, I wouldn't even be able to sleep soundly.

After 5 minutes passed, the host said, "The time is up, we will ask the answers one by one in the order in which the answers were submitted before, and the first player who gets the correct answer will get our first prize—you know I am here What are you talking about." He blinked playfully, "Then, let's start with this young lady."

"As far as I know, there has never been a unified conclusion about the best move," Fujisaki Ming cleared his throat and said a little shyly, "Because after 160 moves, Wu was not cornered, and Just falling into a passive position, the possibility of victory is still not small, so the interpretation of this game of chess by the major schools has been constantly, and there are different opinions on the best move..."

Her eyes were shining like stars, her cheeks were flushed, she became more confident as she spoke, and her voice gradually became louder.

"...For example, the opinion of the head disciple of the Wu Qingyuan sect at that time..."

Looking at such a clear back, Shinto inexplicably felt a feeling of "I have a girl who is just growing up in my family".

"...and among them, the one I agree with the most is—"

Fujisaki stated her answer clearly, firm and generous, bright and moving, making people have an urge to applaud her words.

The expression on Mr. Saito's face was rarely relaxed. He smiled and was the first to clap his hands.

Then the applause seemed to be contagious, and it rang like a tide.

"Listen to the applause! I think everyone knows it! Who does today's top prize belong to!" The host shouted loudly, and walked over to shake hands with Fujisaki, "This beautiful and smart lady, congratulations to you, and to you Represent the team!"

Akira Fujisaki stood there, surrounded by warm applause, listening to the host's enthusiastic announcement, feeling a strong sense of unreality.

Then Shinto took a step forward and reached out to stroke her hair.

"Good job."

The author has something to say: The battle of the century between Wu Qingyuan and Honinbo Hideya is simply terrifying!

Or should I say Wu Qingyuan is downright scary!

Although there were no five-and-a-half eyes at that time, so he had a slight advantage in holding black.

But considering that his opponent at that time was almost the top chess player of the entire Honinbo school...

And he was only 22 years old...
