So Ordinary I Want to Be Recognized

"That's it, it doesn't matter, it'll be better next time." Hinamori Seven comforted.

"But, it's always been like this." The little boy shook his head. "Those who are clearly determined to become professional players are not good at playing many amateur games. Every time I think about it, I want to give up."

"Speaking of giving up... But Xiaoliang is only one year older than me. Is it too early to say giving up?"

"No," Xiao Liang denied Hinamori Seven's theory, "the teacher said that shogi requires talent, and if you don't have talent... no matter how young you are, you will never be in your early years. After making the wrong move, I think back on it. , I will always blame myself, and I will suddenly lose the motivation to play shogi. But... every time I see the chess board, I always want to play, and then I will lose more and more... If it is always like this, I always feel I'm doing something that doesn't make sense."

Are you talented...

Another talent.

The world is very talented.Talented people can do anything well.Just like God rewarding food, people who can make good use of their talents will not be too bad.

And people without talent... can only silently chase the crowd alone, looking up at their backs.

only...

"So what?" Mizutaku said.

"Huh?" Young Moriqi made a puzzled voice, and Xiao Liang also raised his head to look at him.

"What if you don't have talent. If you really like shogi, you can feel happy in the process of playing chess whether you have talent or not. You will feel a little happy when you are praised by others." Yonezu Zhuo picked up the chessboard, "Look, Xiaoqi just praised you for your good play, didn't you? In the eyes of your teacher, you may not play well, but in the eyes of people like Xiaoqi who don't know much about shogi, You are good enough."

"..." Xiao Liang stopped talking, looking at his expression, he seemed to be seriously thinking about the meaning of these words.

"Not everyone can climb to the top of the mountain. Even if you fail to climb the mountain, don't the cheering words you harvest on the way make no sense? It's not like this." Yoshizin Zhuo's eyes are quite serious. , "I will be grateful for every word that praises me, and I will thank everyone who recognizes me. Even if I fail in the end, I know that when I try, their eyes are watching me. As long as this is the case, I will very satisfied."

"..." The room fell silent.

"Brother Yonejin..." Hinamori said to break the silence, "Although I don't quite understand it, I think you're right."

"In any case, the road that has been decided must be completed well, Xiao Liang." A kind voice sounded, and the three of them all looked out the door.

It's mother-in-law Kikuko in a kimono.

"It's not my grandson's style to give up halfway." Walking into the room and sitting next to An Xiliang, mother-in-law Kikuko patted his head, then bowed slightly to Taku Mizuko, "Great speech, young man. Thank you. Can enlighten my grandson who got into a dead end."

"Actually, it's similar to Xiaoliang. Until now, I haven't been able to do anything well, and I haven't been praised by others." He just shook his head with a wry smile, and Mijin Zhuo said, "It's just a little empathy."

"Why? Mizu-san doesn't look like that."

"Didn't Xiao Qi watch me dance? The talent in other things is the same as dancing."

"Hmm..." Seemingly remembering the clumsy dance, Hinamori lowered his head, "It sounds very pitiful, I always feel that Mizu-san is working hard."

"I'm almost used to it. So, if someone can recognize me, even if it is the process of recognizing my efforts, I will be very happy." Tidy up the chessboard, "Although the process is very tortuous, you still won me, Xiaoliang. , at least you're better than me! Don't be discouraged, you'll eventually beat those opponents you can't beat and become better than them."

Words of encouragement were spoken.

It's a guy with a particularly bad talent encouraging a guy with a just poor talent.

It's that simple.

Chapter 9 Yonezu Hanabi

In the evening, the convenience store is on duty.

"I didn't expect to meet Yonezu-san at the Sakura House. It feels a little strange." After greeting each other almost as usual, Kato Megumi handed over the money.

"I didn't expect it either. I just ran into Xiao Qi when I was hanging out, and then I just wanted to see those children." He took the money and arranged the change as quickly as he played the piano, put it on the cardboard and pushed it over. Mizutaku said so.

"If it's an ordinary person, it's normal to ignore it."

"Maybe I'm not an ordinary person." As if he didn't want to say something depressing in front of Miss Kato, Yonejin Zhuo thought about it, and boasted in a rare way.

Not so.He has become so ordinary that he is buried deep in the hustle and bustle of the world and cannot be found.

"?" It seemed that Miss Kato had doubts in her heart.

Mijin Zhuo immediately realized what she was thinking: At this time, shouldn't you be humble.

Mizutaku, who has no social talent, is always saying the wrong things like this.

However, Kato Megumi quickly recovered, and there was a slight smile in her eyes: "He is a very confident and gentle person, Yonezu-san."

So, Ms. Kato is really an angel who came to the world.

"Then, good night, Yonezu-san." After picking up the change, Kato Megumi waved at him gently and left.

"Good night, Kato-san."

I have said these four words well today.

What a complete day.

......

Yonezu Taku, who walked to the door of the house, felt more and more wrong.

Because... the light at the door was turned on, and when it was close to the house, the light in the house was also on.

After ruling out the possibility of an arrogant thief entering the house, there is only one answer.

Mizutaku picked up the key, opened the door, pushed it open, and walked in.

"I'm back, Xiao Zhuo." The TV was on, playing the greasy soap opera that Yonejin Zhuo hated.On the sofa opposite the TV, there was such a voice.

"Well, when did Auntie get home?"
