Chapter 806: Flying Chess Battle
Chapter 806: Flying Chess Battle
The sunlight in Kasukabe is like a layer of golden gauze, shining softly and wantonly into the cozy living room of the Nohara family through the large and bright windows. The tiny light and shadows jump and flicker on the floor, making the whole space particularly warm and cozy.
Meiya was wearing a light blue home dress, her smooth hair was casually tied behind her head, revealing her smooth forehead. She was sitting in the living room with a colorful flying chess board in front of her. The chess pieces on the board were shining in the sunlight.
At one side, Shin-chan was wearing his signature red short-sleeved shirt and slightly loose green shorts. He looked like an energetic little monkey, jumping excitedly in the living room and humming his own tune. His voice was full of anticipation for the game that was about to begin.
With a lively light in her eyes, she would come to the chessboard from time to time and poke the chess pieces with her hands, as if to say hello to them in advance. Xiaokui sat beside her, with an innocent smile on her pink face, holding a colorful rattle tightly in her hand, staring at the chessboard curiously, her big black and white eyes full of the desire to explore this new thing, waving her hands from time to time, making "babbling" sounds, as if to express her joy for the game.
Mingxu had a gentle and calm smile on his face as he slowly placed the chess pieces. His movements were skillful and orderly.
"Okay, is everyone ready? Our Nohara family's flying chess battle is about to begin today!" Misae clapped her hands, the crisp applause echoed in the living room, and she announced loudly.
"I can't wait! Mom, I'm definitely going to be the first!" Xiaoxin shouted excitedly, his eyes gleaming with confidence that was almost conceited. As he spoke, he wiggled his little butt proudly, with his hands on his hips, looking like he was sure of victory.
"Hmph, don't be complacent too soon, Xiaoxin. I won't show any mercy." Mingxu responded with a smile, his voice low and gentle. He narrowed his eyes slightly, raised the corners of his mouth, and looked at his energetic brother in front of him with a faint smile.
Xiaokui was also waving her rattle, making a crisp "dong dong dong" sound, as if she was cheering for the battle. Her pink little face was full of excitement and curiosity.
Meiya picked up the dice and shook her hand gently. The dice rolled happily in her hand. Then she threw it gently. The dice rolled on the chessboard a few times and finally stopped steadily on the number "3".
"Oh, I didn't win, what a pity." Meiya said with a gentle smile on her face.
Next it was Xiaoxin's turn. He held the dice tightly in both hands, his eyes wide open, and he kept muttering, "Heaven and earth, please give me a 6!" His voice was rhythmic, as if he was performing a solemn ceremony.
Then he threw the dice with force, and it drew a beautiful arc in the air and landed steadily on the chessboard, showing the number "6".
"Hahaha! I knew I was the luckiest!" Xiao Xin jumped up excitedly, his feet off the ground, and moved his chess piece out of the base. He looked at everyone triumphantly, and made a face at Mingxu, with his tongue stretched out, his eyes narrowed into slits, his face full of pride, and then he shook out another 2, moving forward 2 squares.
Mingxu looked at the complacent Xiaoxin and shook his head helplessly, but the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously, revealing a doting smile. He gently picked up the dice, his eyes revealed a hint of calmness and composure, and with a slight flick of his wrist, the dice began to roll on the chessboard. The dice rolled for a while and stopped at the number "4". Shrugging, Mingxu looked at Xiaokui, handed the dice to him, and warned Xiaokui not to put it in his mouth.
Xiaokui nodded, stretched out her chubby little hands, and babbled, trying hard to grab the dice.
Meiya looked at Xiaokui's cute appearance and smiled gently. She gently handed the dice to Xiaokui. Xiaokui held the dice tightly, her face flushed, and threw it hard. The dice bounced on the chessboard for a few times and finally stopped at the number "6". Meiya gently helped Xiaokui take out the chess piece and asked Xiaokui to shake it again. This time it was 3. After helping Xiaokui move 3 squares, Meiya looked at Xiaokui and praised: "Xiaokui is really amazing!"
As the game progressed, the situation on the chessboard gradually became tense. Xiaoxin's chess piece was leading all the way and soon approached the finish line. He hummed a little tune, looked at the other players proudly, and kept muttering: "Hey, you can't catch up with me!"
His body twisted to the rhythm of the ditty, and his hands waved in the air, as if he had already celebrated his victory in advance. Mingxu looked at Xiaoxin's chess piece at the door of his house, and the corners of his mouth rose: "Are you sure?"
"Ah?" Xiao Xin was stunned and nodded subconsciously.
Mingxu suddenly threw a "6", and a flash of excitement flashed in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure. His chess piece moved forward quickly, not only surpassing Xiaoxin, but also landing right on Xiaoxin's chess piece.
"Hey, Xiaoxin, I'm sorry, you have to go back to the base and start over!" Mingxu said with a smile, with a hint of ridicule in his smile.
"What? How could this happen!" Xiao Xin's eyes widened with an expression of disbelief, his mouth opened so wide that it seemed like an egg could fit in. "Xiao Xu, you're going too far!"
Xiaoxin immediately pouted, crossed his hands over his chest, his eyes flashing with grievance, and he looked extremely aggrieved.
"This is the rule of the game, Xiaoxin. You have to accept the consequences if you lose." Mingxu consoled him with a smile, and he gently touched Xiaoxin's head.
Although Xiaoxin was very unconvinced, he had no choice but to put the chess piece back to the base.
He picked up the dice again, vowing to himself that he would turn defeat into victory. This time, Xiao Xin was lucky and threw out several big numbers in a row, and the chess piece quickly caught up.
Fighting spirit rekindled in his eyes and the expression on his face turned serious. After all, he already had three to take home, while the others still had two on the way. As long as he had this one left to take home, he would win!
Meiya silently observed the situation from the sidelines, her chess pieces were also moving forward steadily, and she watched the interesting interactions between the three children. Her eyes were always full of love and tenderness for the children.
Although Xiaokui didn't quite understand the rules of the game, she had a lot of fun playing it.
Every time she threw the dice, she would clap her hands excitedly and laugh happily as she watched her chess pieces move forward. Her innocent smile infected everyone present.
As the game entered a white-hot stage, the competition on the chessboard became more intense. In the middle of the game, Shin-chan was beaten back by Xiaokui again. Now it became a competition between Shin-chan, Mingxu and Meisai.
The chess pieces of the three people are hovering near the finish line. Anyone of them could become the final winner, but Xiaokui still has one chess piece at home, so it is obvious that the probability of winning is not high.
At this moment, Xiaoxin threw a "5". His chess piece successfully entered the finishing track, and he only needed to take one more step to win the game.
"Haha, I'm about to win!" Shin-chan shouted excitedly, his voice full of joy and excitement, and he laughed like Ultraman.
However, fate always seems to like playing tricks on people. In the next round, Xiao Kui threw a "6". His chess piece hit Xiao Xin on a plane and knocked Xiao Xin's chess piece back to the starting point again.
"Ah! Xiaokui, you are such a bad guy!" Xiaoxin shouted angrily, he was about to win!
"Shin-chan, don't be discouraged. There is still a chance. Besides, Aoi didn't do it on purpose." Misae comforted gently.
Xiao Xin curled his lips, took a deep breath, picked up the dice, and threw it hard. This time, the dice actually stopped on the number "6". "Great!" Xiao Xin cheered and set off again.
In the next few rounds, Xiaoxin went smoothly all the way and threw out several big numbers in succession. His chess pieces quickly approached the finish line. However, Mingxu and Meiya's chess pieces were somewhat stuck in a protracted battle and had not thrown out the desired numbers. On the contrary, Xiaokui's last chess piece was already halfway through.
Xiao Xin came to the finish line again, picked up the dice with trembling hands.
He stared at the dice and prayed silently in his heart: "It must be 1, it must be 1!"
Fine beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, and then he threw the dice carefully. The dice rolled on the board for a few times and finally stopped at the number "1".
"I won! I won!" Xiaoxin jumped up excitedly, cheering as he ran.
He ran to Meiya and Mingxu, opened his arms, hugged them tightly, and his face was filled with happiness and pride. "Mom, Xiaoxu, Xiaokui, I'm the first place!"
Meiya and Mingxu also smiled at the excited Xiaoxin. Meiya gently stroked Xiaoxin's head, her eyes full of tenderness, her mouth corners slightly raised, her face filled with a happy smile. "Xiaoxin, you are great!" Meiya said, her voice full of praise for her son.
"Congratulations, Xiaoxin. You win this time." Mingxu said with a smile, and he patted Xiaoxin's shoulder gently.
Xiao Kui also waved her rattle and laughed happily, as if celebrating Xiao Xin's victory. Her laughter was clear and melodious, adding a special joy to this warm moment.
"Okay, okay, the game is over. From now on, you three can play by yourselves. Mommy has to go out to buy groceries and cook. Otherwise, you won't have any dinner when your dad comes home." After standing up and stretching for a while, Meiya smiled at the little ones.
"Xiao Xu, take good care of Xiao Xin and Xiao Kui. Mom is going out."
"Okay." Mingxu nodded. After the three of them watched Meiya leave, they started another game and played enthusiastically.
