Even so, it was too late to repent.

Meng Huo tried to contact Director Muto, wanting to return the chessboard to him, but the answer he got was that there was no reason to take back the gift he sent.

"It's just an ordinary chessboard, it doesn't have any special meaning, please don't mind, Teacher He Xi, you can use it to learn Go with peace of mind!" He said, and then completely refused to take back the chessboard.

An Xin, An Xin, other people may be able to use it comfortably, but Meng Huo always feels uncomfortable with this kind of thing by his side. He even wanted to call a courier to send the chessboard back, but he felt uneasy about handing over such an expensive item to someone else.

"Give it back the next time I'm in Tokyo."

Meng Huo thought for a while, and then Shen Jie, who was fiddling with chess pieces in the office like this, said that it would be more reassuring for him to send the chessboard back in person.

"Okay, before that, let's play!" Shen Jie's eyes lit up. With such a good chessboard by her side, she would always feel itchy if she didn't use it to play with it. Besides, Meng Huo and her have never had much in common. Playing games, this is also Shen Jie's regret.

She has been looking for something that Meng Huo likes and can participate in by herself. Seeing this chessboard, Shen Jie felt as if she had found it.

"Can you play chess?" She asked Meng Huo excitedly.

"Hungry... I haven't played before." Meng Huo shook his head. He ◎≯long◎≯wind◎≯wen◎≯learned, ww∧⌒△t didn't learn Go formally, but the rules of Go are very simple, he has heard of it. However, it is unlikely that Shen Jie would like to compete with him. He has a lot of work to do when he comes back today.

After talking to Shen Jie about the work, Shen Jie showed regret on her face. But then the eyes lit up again.

"Night, night is always fine!"

Meng Huo nodded. He has time tonight.

"Then tonight. I'll go to your apartment tonight and let you see how good I am." Shen Jie excitedly stood up. She originally had to rehearse at night, but now she decided to go to the office to change the time.

But before she left, Meng Huo suddenly thought of something, and said to her, "By the way, call Han Xuan and the others!"

He still remembered Han Xuan's invitation before leaving Su Hua. If he wanted to play games at night, he might as well call those young people together. Meng Huo is also a new student of Go, so it should be more fun for everyone to play together.

Shen Jie sank slightly,

Then she agreed. In fact, she wanted to call Alice, but Alice seemed to deliberately give her Meng Huo's time. She probably wouldn't come today.

In the evening, after Meng Huo got off work, Shen Jie brought a few friends over. When they walked into Meng Huo's apartment, they were stunned by the luxury of the apartment. Liu Yi even muttered to himself, "This is even more luxurious than the presidential suite in the hotel..."

"Just treat this as a hotel." Meng Huo said with a smile. Then he looked at the other three cautious girls and said, "Okay. Come in and sit down. This is just an apartment lent to me. Don't worry too much about it."

This apartment was provided to Meng Huo by the company, but it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was his own, but after he said this, the teenagers finally became less restrained. Liu Yun is the most extroverted. After sitting down and chatting for a few minutes, the girl immediately stopped being nervous and clamored to play chess.

"Hmph... I've heard it from Shen Jie. Teacher He Xi, you are also a beginner, right? Let me torture you!" She didn't care about Meng Huo's identity at all, and she just wanted to torture. Meng Huo.

"Have you ever learned to play chess?" Meng Huo was curious, and then looked at the other three: "How about you?"

The three immediately shook their heads, which meant that they had never learned how to play chess, and Liu Yun's experience of learning chess was also interesting. She was Shen Jie's childhood sweetheart, and when she was young, she often challenged Shen Jie in various aspects without admitting defeat. Naturally, she also understood Go .

Two of the six people can play chess, so it is not troublesome to popularize science.

Meng Huo took out the chess and reminded him: "I borrowed this chess from someone else. It is very expensive. Don't break it."

Go is hard to break. The chess pieces are made of smooth jade, and the board is also a good wood with a long history. As long as you don't hold a knife, you can't make any marks. But it was too precious, Meng Huo couldn't help but remind him.

He also took a special look at the fingers of these friends. The nails were well cut and should not rub against the chessboard. Seeing Meng Huo's serious expression, Liu Yun and the others naturally did not dare to mess around.

The first game was between Liu Yun and Meng Huo, and Shen Jie explained that this game was for learning, and the purpose was to let Meng Huo and the others learn the basics. However, after only ten minutes of playing, Meng Huo was completely defeated, and was eaten to death by Liu Yun's white son...

"I think this should be enough, let's end this game!"

Meng Huo stopped, he had already figured out the general way to play, and Liu Yi and the others also understood the rules.

"Hahaha, Meng Huo, you will lose too!" Liu Yun laughed loudly, but felt a little guilty in her heart. At first, Meng Huo couldn't play at all. If it continues, this situation is likely to turn around.

Liu Yun is not a great chess player, but she can play against Shen Jie who has won the championship. Of course, her strength should not be underestimated.

"The speed of progress is not as good as that of a beginner. Meng Huo is indeed a monster..." Liu Yun thought so, and then refused to play with Meng Huo again. He finally beat the cartoonist He Xi, and maybe he can go out in the future Show off twice, how can he get back on the stage.

However, Meng Huo didn’t seem to mind either. The rest of the time was the time for several beginners to play Go. Playing Go took longer than Meng Huo expected. Beginners play chess most of the time without thinking, but the average A round also takes twenty minutes.

If you are familiar with the rules and start playing chess with your brain, this time will be further improved.

Throughout the night, Liu Yi and the others played about two or three rounds each. Meng Huo also played a round with Liu Yi later, while Shen Jie never played the whole time. Everyone played with her, and more importantly, there was no time. .

They played until eleven o'clock in the evening, and Meng Huo sent them away regretfully.

"I didn't expect this thing to take so much time." He apologized: "When the carnival comes, I'll find something else for you to come and play with!"

"No, no, it's interesting!" Han Xuan and the others waved their hands quickly. Although there were few opportunities to play Go, Go was very fun, especially when so many people gathered together.

"I think I can play this next time," Liu Yi said.

Li Yu said a little excitedly: "Go is so handsome, I want to buy a pair to play when I go back."

"Then buy it, it's just that you all play and see who can learn faster." Shen Jie frowned: "Let me buy it for you, each one, and practice hard when you go back, let's see who can challenge me in the future !"

She seemed to regret that no one could challenge her tonight.

"Okay!" Liu Yun immediately clapped her hands and agreed. She turned to look at the other three people, who also agreed with great interest.

This made Meng Huo very astonished. After seeing off the four people, he looked at Shen Jie who stayed in the apartment: "Challenge you? Do you expect so much from them?" It’s not bad, there’s something to play well... Don’t you think Go is particularly elegant?”

Meng Huo shook his head.

"But playing Go can calm the mood. It's a good thing." She looked at Meng Huo with sparkling eyes: "And I think it's especially suitable for you. You look so handsome when you play chess...and you're usually too busy If you want to die, it’s good to have such a thing.”

"So you're looking for a partner for me?" Meng Huo smiled wryly, "Do you think their progress can keep up with me?"

He watched it all night and found that his learning speed was very different from those of the three friends. With unequal learning abilities, Go was not a good thing to strengthen their relationship. Meng Huo felt that he could choose another recreational activity.

But Shen Jie doesn't think so, Go is just a tool, it doesn't matter if you play it well or badly, as long as it's interesting, let alone her. She wanted Meng Huo to continue playing chess and play chess with him, which must be a great thing.

"Meng Huo, you can consider drawing Go cartoons." Shen Jie sat down in front of the chessboard, and she picked up a chess piece with her index and middle fingers, and looked at Meng Huo: "Come on, let me tell you about its fun."

During tonight's game, Shen Jie has been watching from the side, she can see that Meng Huo's comprehension is very high.

Moreover, when explaining, Shen Jie deliberately said some difficult moves, even Liu Yun didn't respond, but Meng Huo seemed to understand. If he didn't guess wrong, Shen Jie felt that Meng Huo's current chess thinking Has surpassed Liu Yun.

Of course, this is just thinking ability. His actual combat experience is close to zero. Without actual combat, even the best thinking is useless. Many actual battles contain the essence of thinking of countless chess players in history. Only through actual combat can chess skills grow.

However, Shen Jie felt that Meng Huo now had the ability to appreciate the fun of playing chess. The fun that Liu Yi and the others felt was just a beginner's curiosity about the newly learned skills and the appearance of the chessboard and chess pieces, rather than a true liking for playing chess. .

To like Go, first of all, you have to know the thinking of Go and the joy of playing. Meng Huo is very smart. Because of his smartness, he can see the really interesting part of Go faster than ordinary people, and Shen Jie wants to lead Meng Huo to this place.

She sat across from Meng Huo, guiding him like a teacher. Looking at Meng Huo's thinking face holding a chess piece, Shen Jie suddenly understood why chess players were obsessed with maintaining the traditional master-apprentice relationship in the past. Perhaps this kind of inheritance teaching In itself, it is a kind of chess culture.

The Huaxia Go Association gave the precious chessboard to Meng Huo, perhaps expecting him to be inherited by it, so as to get closer to their ideological world. If you want comics, it is more useful to make Meng Huo like Go than verbal seduction.

"They have to thank me very much..."

Shen Jie thought, without her, Meng Huo might have sealed the chessboard. (to be continued...)
