In some ways, she could be called a little adult.
After saying this, Hinatsuru Akina was about to leave when Dongfang Chen suddenly called out, "Lady Hinatsuru, please wait a moment."
"Is there anything else, teacher?" she asked, puzzled.
Dongfang Chen said seriously, "There are indeed some things I need to remind Madam of. If Madam encounters anything strange, please remain calm, act as if nothing is wrong, and call me immediately."
"What do you mean?"
Hinatsuru Akina frowned slightly, not quite understanding what Dongfang Chen meant.
"Just remember what I said."
Dongfang Chen didn't explain much; it's better for ordinary people not to know about some things.
Hinatsuru Akina stared at him for a while, nodded slightly, and then turned and left.
"Master, what were you talking about just now?" Ai Hina Tsuru asked, tugging at his clothes.
"It's nothing. Let's go home and play chess. If Ai can't win tomorrow, your mother won't agree to you learning shogi with me."
He patted the little girl's head and said.
Upon hearing that she could no longer learn shogi from him, Hinatsuru Ai instantly perked up: "Master, let's hurry home. Ai needs to seize the time to become stronger."
"Okay, okay, stop, stop!"
Dongfang Chen was being led away by Chu He Ai.
……
During the noon and afternoon hours, Dongfang Chen taught Chuhe Ai a flying car style of play that he often used. It was highly aggressive while also preventing sneak attacks.
Then I explained to her how to deal with moves that deviate from the original game.
So far, Ai Hinatsuru's shogi techniques have only been two: one is to imitate his rook-style moves, and the other is to follow established game records.
If you're only facing the trainees at the training center who haven't yet become official Go players or female Go players, very few people can withstand Hinatsuru Ai's attacks.
But you have to be careful when facing professional players and female players, because what if they are also potential stars?
When facing professional Go players, you need to go all out; if you just follow the game records, you will almost certainly lose!
Dongfang Chen is working hard to fill in the gaps in Chuhe's love.
……
It's about nine o'clock in the evening.
In a five-star hotel not far from Dongfang Chen's home, Hinatsuru Akina closed her laptop and rubbed her temples wearily.
After returning at noon, she has been working remotely in front of her computer almost the entire time.
As one of the top hotel owners in Japan, her workload may not be huge, but she still needs to handle many tasks personally.
However, she was unaware that an evil spirit was watching her every move...
Hinatsuru Akina got up and stretched her body before preparing to take a hot bath.
But when her gaze inadvertently swept over the laptop, she discovered that the laptop, which had been closed, was now open!
"Huh? What's going on?"
Hinatsuru Akina frowned and tried to recall. She remembered that it had just been closed, right?
"Can you see her? Get away from her, stay away, stay far away, can you see her... can you see her?"
The evil spirit approached Hinatsuru Akina and kept repeating, asking if she could see...
Moreover, a dense black aura began to emanate from its body, almost completely enveloping Hinatsuru Akina.
At the same time, Hinatsuru Akina felt a chill envelop her entire body, as if she had suddenly entered an ice cellar...
Faintly, she seemed to hear some indistinct sounds again.
I scanned the room, but found nothing...
Chapter 31 Is Master Going to Deliver Ramen to Mom? (Seeking Flowers, Reviews, and Monthly Tickets)
Although it was a bit strange, Hinatsuru Akina didn't take it too seriously and closed the laptop again.
As for the chills she felt and the occasional faint sounds she could hear, she had long been used to them.
Because, ever since six years ago, after Hinatsuru Ai's father passed away unexpectedly, she has felt this chill from time to time.
She had also gone to the hospital for a check-up, but the results showed that everything was normal and there was nothing wrong.
Moreover, this situation rarely occurred in previous years; it might not even happen once a month.
It seems that this has become more frequent since the beginning of this year, with me experiencing a feeling of coldness all over my body every two or three days.
The indistinct sounds gradually became clearer, and one could even vaguely make out their meaning.
"Can you see it? Can you see what?"
She murmured in confusion, which instantly excited the evil spirit beside her.
"You can see it! You can see it? You can see it!!"
It hissed and kept waving its claws at the young crane, Ashina, or trying to bite, but all of its attempts missed.
Because when Hina Akina got up, she couldn't see its presence at all; it was just that it thought Hina Akina could see it.
At this moment, Hinatsuru Akina felt extremely cold all over her body. She subconsciously tightened her clothes and then walked towards the bathroom.
First, I turned on the hot water valve above the bathtub, and then I slowly started removing my makeup in front of the mirror. My long hair, which had been tied up tightly, was let down, reaching just to my waist.
She scooped up some water and washed her face again, but when she looked up, she saw a huge black shadow reflected in the mirror, like a mosaic.
She didn't know what it was, but her physiological instincts told her it was dangerous, extremely dangerous!
Hinatsuru Akina froze, her pupils contracted sharply, and she dared not move. Suddenly, she recalled Dongfang Chen's reminder.
Stay calm, act as if nothing happened, and then contact him...
In a flash, she understood something. The most urgent thing was to find a way to contact Dongfang Chen!
She took two deep breaths carefully, then laboriously raised her hand to touch her lower eyelids, murmuring in a trembling voice, "Dark circles, dark circles are showing. Looks like I need to get some rest."
"Oh!"
The evil spirit slapped a hand on the mirror, making a sound. Hinatsuru Akina's legs trembled, and she almost lost her strength and fell to the ground.
A whisper came from beside my ear: "Can you see? Can you see~ Can you see~"
From Hinatsuru Akina's perspective, she could see half of a black object covering the mirror, which almost drove her mad.
Fortunately, her calm and composed nature, cultivated over the years, allowed her to barely regain her composure.
"Hmm, it'll take a while to fill the bathtub with water. I wonder if Ai is asleep by now. I'll give her a call and ask!"
She muttered to herself, then slowly walked out of the bedroom, found her phone, and dialed Dongfang Chen's number.
Dongfang Chen, who was playing chess with Hina Tsuru, heard the phone ring, picked it up, looked at it, and immediately answered: "Moshi Moshi, good evening, what can I do for you, Mrs. Hina Tsuru?"
"No, nothing, I just wanted to ask if you like sleeping."
She tried her best to maintain her normal speaking tone.
But Dongfang Chen still noticed the tremor in the voice, and he immediately perked up.
"If you're still awake, Ai? I'll let her wash up and go to bed after this game of chess. Is that all?"
"Ah, um, that's it. I just called to ask. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up now?"
"Um, wait a minute! I wanted to ask you, teacher, what are some good places to eat in Tokyo? Could you please buy some and bring it to me?"
Dongfang Chen frowned. It was definitely not right to ask him to deliver midnight snacks so late at night. Could it be that evil spirit was causing trouble?
He asked, "Mrs. Hinatsuru, would you like some late-night snacks? The ramen in Tokyo is quite good, I'll send you some."
"Well, since the teacher recommended it, then I'll have to trouble you!"
Hinatsuru Akina breathed a slight sigh of relief; it seemed the other party had noticed.
"Yes, Madam, please tell me your location, and I'll go right away."
"I'm at the Tokyo Imperial Palace Hotel, room 1104. I'm sorry to trouble you to make this trip, teacher."
"Okay, I'll be there as soon as possible."
……
As soon as the call ended, Hinatsuru Ai asked, "Master, are you going to deliver ramen to Mom?"
Dongfang Chen's lips twitched. How could he really deliver ramen? He wasn't that free.
“Your mother is hungry and asked me if I have any good food recommendations, but she’s not familiar with Tokyo, so I’m planning to make a trip there.”
Although she found it a little strange, she nodded and said, "I see. In that case, Master, you should go ahead!"
"Okay, if you love me, take a shower and get ready for bed. You need to be well-rested to win tomorrow. I'll be back in a bit."
"Yes, Master, please come back soon."
He grabbed his phone and keys and went straight out the door.
Once outside, I immediately flagged down a passing taxi and took it directly to the Tokyo Imperial Palace Hotel.
