Cherish the time

"...Xiaoguang?" While the two were thinking seriously, a familiar voice sounded behind Shinto.

"Eh? Lord Natsume!" Seeing someone coming, Shindo immediately stood up from the sofa, and moved over in surprise, "You've come to the beach too!"

"Haha, I'm a regular customer here." Mr. Natsume winked at him, then bent down and whispered in his ear, "I'm so old that I'm a VIP member here!"

"Ha, that's really amazing!" Although he didn't understand why the VIP members acted so mysteriously, Shinto still flattered him very skillfully.

The old man Natsume waved his hand, "It's no big deal..." But the slightly smug look on his face betrayed his true mood, "Are you here to participate in the competition?"

"Well, where's Natsume?"

The old man didn't answer, but just gave him a meaningful look, "First time participating?"

"Eh..." Shinto felt that he could smell a hint of conspiracy, and nodded hesitantly.

"Hahaha, don't be afraid, I will take care of you." The old man Natsume patted him on the shoulder, "Bring back a champion, let me try the taste of all-you-can-eat watermelon." Then he waved his hand and left.

Shindo smiled bitterly, waved his hands twice at the old man's back, and muttered: "It's not good..."

『Natsume-sama is getting more and more childish. Zuo Wei also smiled wryly, "Before, he was obviously a very serious person. 』

"I've experienced a lot of things, and I'm getting old, so it's normal to look at it..." Shinto sighed, "But the childish old man is really a headache. 』

"Ah, Xiaoguang." It happened that Mingming walked over from the corner with the form, "This form...how should I fill it out?"

"Hmm...why not?" Shinto scratched his head, took Mingming to the sofa and sat down, Ta Yaliang glanced at them, and continued to study his entry instructions.

While Shinto was giving Fujisaki one-on-one guidance on filling out the form, a lazy and charming female voice suddenly came from the door, "...Nah~ Seiji, this is the hotel."

A group of people subconsciously glanced in the direction of the sound, and saw Ogata Seiji in a white suit walking towards the counter on the arm of a stylishly dressed long-haired beauty.

Taya Ryo was stunned for a moment, then narrowed his eyes uncertainly and looked again, "...Mr. Ogata..."

Shinto also stared at him for a while, "How could he... come here?"

Shinto was really surprised - he couldn't imagine a man like Ogata Seiji wearing swimming trunks... In his impression, this man's body should be a white suit.

"Xiaoguang? How should I fill in here?"

"Uh...wait a minute." Shinto made an apologetic gesture to Fujisaki, and gave Toya a look.

Taya knowingly put down the documents in her hand, got up together with Shinto and walked towards Ogata with his female companion.

As he got closer, he heard the conversation between the two people in front of the counter.

"Ah... Seiji, you can't be happier, it's clear that you agreed to come out to play with me."

"..."

"Hey... What a boring man... Sir, can you please give us a registration form for the Go game?" The second half of the sentence was already addressed to the waiter at the counter.

Shinto and Taya stopped one meter behind them, looked at each other, and nodded.

"Mr. Ogata." Taya called out.

Ogata Seiji turned around in surprise, and saw that it was Taya and Shinto, with a friendly smile on his face, "Ms. Taya said you went to the beach to play, I was wondering if I would meet up."

"Allah? Is it a child you know?" The woman holding his arm leaned on Ogata's body and greeted them with a smile, "I'm Misaki Shimizu, hello."

"Hello, I'm Hikari Shinto, this is the first time we meet, please take care of me." Hikari Shinto greeted her with a big smile.

"Hi, I'm Ta Ya Ryo, please take care of me." Ta Ya Ryo said with a smile.

"Ah...! What a polite child, are you in elementary school now?" Shimizu Misaki covered her mouth with one hand and smiled, "It's the same with me, please take care of me!"

"BUBU—you guessed wrong!" Shinto smiled and made an "X" gesture, "Xiaoliang and I are already in the first grade of middle school."

"Eh middle school student?" Misaki made a slightly exaggerated expression, "It's a pity that I guessed wrong..."

Ogata stood there watching the interaction between the three, pushed his glasses and said, "Xiaoguang, Xiaoliang, Miss Misaki is my friend; Misaki, these two are also active professional chess players, not ordinary middle school students. "

Misaki glanced at him helplessly, let go of his arm, and then smiled, "Yes, Seiji and I are very good friends."

"That's really good." Shinto said with a smile, "Speaking of which, Mr. Ogata, have you participated in this competition?"

"what happened?"

"I have some doubts about the content of the competition." Shinto's expression was a little tangled, he picked up the registration form that Ogata had placed on the desk at the front desk, turned to a page in the competition description and pointed it out to him, "...I always feel very Do not feel at ease."

"It's probably a gimmick to attract customers." Ogata took the form, calmly glanced at the terms he pointed out, and came to a very rational conclusion.

"If you want me to say, thank you boss," Shimizu Misaki shrugged with an unbearable expression, "If there is no gimmick of the Go game, your Mr. Ogata probably wouldn't come to the beach with me."

"Is that so?" Shindo smiled and hooked his fingers at Shimizu, motioning for her to bring her ears closer.

Shimizu squatted down somewhat unexpectedly, and sent his ears to Shinto.

"Actually, Mr. Ogata, he—"

"Misaki, your ID." Ogata's call cut off Shinto's words, Shimizu Misaki stuck out his tongue at Shinto, stood up and took the ID from Ogata's hand.

"Let's go to pack our luggage first." Ogata obviously put on a look of unwillingness to stay for a long time, and Shinto and Taya couldn't say anything, so he said goodbye to them and watched them leave.

Shimizu Misaki was pulled by Ogata to walk behind him, turned around and secretly made a "next-time-tell-tell-me-" mouth shape.

After a moment of silence, Taya asked, "What did you plan to say to Miss Shimizu?"

"Ah...? Oh!" Shinto suddenly smiled evilly, "I just want to tell her that on the arrangement form that Mr. Ogata submitted to the chess academy a month ago, it was marked as 'no chess games' for these three days. "

"How do you know?" Taya suddenly turned to look at him, "...Could it be..." You care about Mr. Yixufang?

"My opponent in the next Honinbo knockout match is Ogata Hachidan." Shinto made a Fighting gesture to him, "I want to beat him by ten eyes and a half..."

"Xiaoguang~~~" Akira Fujisaki raised his head and saw that their conversation was over, and called for support from a distance.
