There was only a muffled sob in the living room.

Chihara Hiroshi gently patted her back and waited until her breath calmed a little before speaking:

"So, this is not your responsibility. No one can choose to be sick or not. Do you want this?

Don't blame yourself for your mistakes. Although you are only one year older than you, I am your brother and some things should be borne by me.

I know, you're still struggling with that thing for a month and a half."

Hiroshi Chihara decided to speak out openly and honestly.

This is the knot of the heart of the sacred heart, and only by untiing it can she feel at ease.

He took off the gray-black wrist guards from his wrist.

Suddenly, a hideous scar appeared, which was more protruding than the surrounding skin. With the traces of sutures, it looked like a centipede lying on his wrist.

Chihara Seizure grabbed his hand, and tears couldn't help but roll.

Chihara Hiroshi said while wiping away the tears from her face:

"A month and a half ago, I wanted to leave this world very irresponsibly-"

Chihara Sabu seemed to want to speak, but he stopped him.

He continued: "I thought it was liberation, but when my life really began to pass by little, I felt fear again.

I survived by my own will, so I am not a burden to me.

Therefore, I also understand one thing: people must look forward, and their longing for the future is both hope and courage.

Not only me, I hope you have the courage too!”

In the next half hour, the brother and sister chatted intermittently.

Chihara Sabu curled up in his arms, his voice gradually weakened, and his eyes slowly closed.

Her voice was soft when he picked her up and placed it on the bed:

"Brother, I knew you would comfort me, but I still said it. I'm such a despicable sister..."

The final sound was almost inaudible.

Chihara Hiroshi looked at her.

Wu did not open his eyes, what he said just now seemed to be talking to him in a dream.

He closed the door gently, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Speaking of despicableness, why isn't he the same?

He had already written the words in his mind when he was in the hospital.

Although he spoke with emotion and no matter whether there was a true feeling or not, the content was full of falsehood.

Is he guilty?

But there is no question.

After all, the original owner had no ambition. If he had not traveled through his body, this body would have probably turned into ashes.

Therefore, it is difficult to associate him with the "killer".

Now his feelings for Chihara are more about the sense of responsibility and pity he has created as the only relative of this body.

Perhaps there is still a hint of comfort to the original owner.

He put the bento into the refrigerator and Hiroshi Chihara took out a small pot and prepared to make porridge.

...

A week passed by.

During this period, Shirakawa Katsuhiko once brought a registration form and asked him to sign it.

Only then did he realize that the Osaka Prefecture High School Go League will start next Tuesday.

At that time, not only will high schools in Osaka City participate in the competition, but also 32 cities including Sakai City, Sy City, and Hannan City will also participate.

As for his girlfriend Samen Masumi, he has not come to cause trouble for him this week.

And his sister Chihara Saki, since the brother and sister talked about each other that night, she has learned more and more hard.

To be honest, Chihara Hiroshi was a little worried about her condition.

However, Shi always agreed with a smile, but his actions did not act like she agreed...

There are two games on Saturday.

The top names of the eight groups were drawn respectively in lottery and faced off in pairs.

Two rounds will compete for the last two players to participate in the finals.

There is still one game in the morning and afternoon.

The opponent in the morning was a little boy, probably still in elementary school, very lively and active, and he would not be sad even if he lost.

Instead, he shouted in a middle-aged manner: "Even if you beat me on the chessboard, you can't defeat my heart! You wait, when my chess power is greatly improved, I will definitely seek revenge on you!"

Hiroshi Chihara remembered the famous lines in "The Muscle Man":

‘Although I don’t know what he is talking about, I feel very confident.’

He smiled and nodded.

The little boy thought he had accepted the challenge and became even more excited.

So the relevant staff were "invited" out of the chess room.

After all, their game was over, but there were three games left in the chess room that were still continuing.

And Chieko Kiji also sat in it.

Hiroshi Chihara stood by silently, but frowned ten seconds later.

In his opinion, Kiji Chieko could obviously go a step further, but she always showed mercy and left a glimmer of hope for the other party.

Always give the other party a chance to turn the tables.

After watching for a minute, he left.

——A hypocritical and meaningless game.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, there were only four people left in the chess room, and the game started on time.

To his surprise, the lottery draw still avoided Chieko Kiri.

Although there is only one-third of the probability, he always feels that it is a bit too coincidental.

What Chihara Hiroshi didn't notice was that Ozuo and Imura looked at each other and smiled.

The one who played against him was a young male with a buzz cut.

The man sat at the table, looking like he was facing a great enemy.

Even though I didn't notice it in the morning, there were only four people left in the afternoon.

He easily recognized the name "Koshi Chihara".

Last week, he defeated last year's runner-up Makoto Kojima, so he will remember his name with just a little attention.

hateful!

He clenched his fists tightly.

Why didn't anyone eliminate him in the morning?

Why did he win him?

Why not let Kiji Chieko fight him?

“The competition has begun.”

Hearing the reminder from the other side, he suddenly realized and quickly grabbed the chess piece from the chess box to guess first.

Chihara Hiroshi looked at him with some confusion.

Why does this person look absent-minded?

Is something wrong at home?

Sure enough, this man made a mess of chess pieces and made several low-level mistakes one after another.

In the end, he was sentenced to illegally eliminated because he regretted the game after making a move.

"Your finger has left, but you moved the piece again. According to the rules of the game, you will be immediately denied!"

Looking at the young man's face full of regret, Chihara Hiroshi won for no reason.

In less than ten minutes, I won dramatically?

Is this going to the finals?

He felt a little sympathetic to the young man and said casually: "You go and deal with the housework quickly."
