ps: Sorry, I was too busy today, I got home so late

On the third day of the carnival, Meng Huo set off again to Tokyo to produce "Mobile Suit Gundam 00".

The plane had just arrived in the evening, but he was stunned when he walked out of the airport.

"Why are there so many people picking up the plane today?"

Meng Huo found that there were more people greeting him today than usual. In addition to familiar faces, there were also a few strange faces that had never been seen before. And when he approached a little, Meng Huo narrowed his eyes slightly, and he saw a person he knew among these strange faces.

"Director Muto, you are..."

Jidong's chess player Director Muto, who had dinner with him last time, was also among the people who were greeting him, and several other strangers stood with him. Obviously, they should be the same group of people. Meng Huo immediately knew in his heart that the welcome of these people was related to "The Soul of Chess".

"I heard that Teacher He Xi will come to Tokyo today and come here to greet you. These are my friends..."

Muto introduced the people around him to Meng Huo. Some of these people are young and some are older, not all of them are Jidong, and half are from the mainland. But without exception, these chess players are all powerful Chinese chess players. The reason for coming here is indeed related to "Chess Soul".

However, Muto did not tell the real purpose here. He enthusiastically invited Meng Huo to dinner, and his attitude was very enthusiastic. Meng Huo refused and couldn't refuse, so he had to respond - he was hungry too.

On the way to dinner, Meng Huo did not ride in the same car with the chess players. The car he was in was sent by Sakura Company to greet him. Not long after driving, Meng Huo's face turned a little cold.

"How could they come to pick me up?" He felt a little unhappy. How could Sakura Company take its own initiative? He told the players about his itinerary without notifying him at all, and took them to the airport.

However, from the mouths of the employees who were greeting him, Meng Huo found that he had misunderstood them. Sakura Company did not disclose his whereabouts, nor did he bring Muto and the others over. The players ran to the airport by themselves, and the employees were also surprised.

"I originally wanted to notify Teacher He Xi, but when I found out that the teacher had already boarded the plane, it was too late to notify me." The employee sitting in the passenger seat added finally.

Meng Huo felt even more unhappy. So, the players came to pick him up on their own initiative? Their news was really good-but although they had no rudeness and were very honest when they greeted him just now, Meng Huo could not be happy.

More than ten minutes later, they followed the chess players and parked the car in front of a Shidong restaurant full of wind.

"Teacher He Xi, please go here..."

The chess players invited Meng Huo to the restaurant's private room. Their preparations were very carefully. Shortly after they sat down, dinner was served one after another. The dishes were all the signature dishes of this restaurant, so there was no bad choice.

After the dinner began, the reason for their invitation to Meng Huo also appeared. In fact, this was not a purposeful reason, I just wanted to thank Meng Huo for positioning the new comics as Go comics, and this was also in Meng Huo's expectation.

He chose to draw a Go comic, and it was almost inevitable that Muto and the others would express gratitude.

However, he still didn't expect that Muto and the others were so grateful that they not only brought the board over again, but also gave several other messy Go association titles. Although these titles are not valuable, they are things that ordinary people can't get.

Of course - Meng Huo refused them all.

"You don't have to thank me." He whispered: "I didn't draw Go comics for you or the Go industry. This has nothing to do with your board, it just happened to have the inspiration to draw Go, and it has nothing to do with you and the Go industry."

Meng Huo said that his choice had nothing to do with the players, and that was his honesty. The reason for choosing "Soul of Chess" was not that great, but actually only three factors were met: one was Chen Jie's suggestion, the other was that he happened to have "Soul of Chess" to choose, and the third was that he had confidence in drawing Go comics.

He didn't want to accept the gratitude that did not belong to him. Meng Huo's starting point was not that great, so he didn't need the gifts of the chess players.

Of course, no matter what Meng Huo said, the players would not believe it. A cartoonist who had never touched Go had decided to draw Go comics. It was always strange that he wanted to draw, and the reason for being kind is "soft-hearted and wanting to help the Go industry" seems reasonable.

Therefore, all chess players, including Muto, believe that Meng Huo is a kind-hearted person. The fact that he does not accept gifts makes his character seem very noble.

"Don't be tempted by other people's money, but choose to help us as a weak industry... and even refuse gifts. Teacher He Xi is really a rare good person in the world." Muto thought to himself that he had long known that a person's character cannot be judged by words, but should be observed by actions.

He Xi's actions were one of the most selfless actions he had ever seen, and he had never seen such a kind cultural creator.

However, Meng Huo refused to accept the gift, and Muto and the other chess players felt uncomfortable. Relying on the influence of cartoonist He Xi, "The Soul of Chess" will definitely bring benefits to the Go industry regardless of whether it fails or not. If they don't express anything, how can they tell outsiders?

"...Well, Teacher He Xi, let's do it..." Muto suddenly thought of an idea: "Since you don't need to thank you, how about let us help you make "Soul of Chess"? We know that you know less about Go. If you need help with the content, all our chess players are willing to help!"

Meng Huo's eyes lit up. He knew what Muto meant. Go comics, of course, a very important point is that the content of Go games in them. There are still some differences in Go in the two worlds. Many chess games in "The Soul of Chess" in this world need to be recreated.

Although Meng Huo is confident in drawing early chess, he is a little confused about the later stage of "Chess Soul" after the protagonist has risen to professional level. Besides, if the chess players are helping him, the outside world's doubts about him will disappear.

Others may question how He Xi, who has not learned Go, can draw a good Go comic, but if there is a group of staff from top chess players behind him to help, who else can gossip?

"This is OK."

Meng Huo quickly agreed, and this was a good thing, of course he would accept it. And being able to discuss comics with these chess players will definitely make a big improvement in his chess skills - maybe he can even beat Chen Jie to the point of falling.

So far, Meng Huo is still half way beyond Chen Jie to play chess, and he doesn't want to lose to this girl all the time. (To be continued, please search Piao Tianwen, the novel is better, updated and faster!
