Tsume in 7!

まずは前回（３月１４日）の解答から、

▲24馬△同玉▲25銀△23玉▲33と△同玉▲43金△23玉▲41角成△13玉▲14馬までの１１手詰が正解です。
【解説】一目上に逃げられそうですが、▲24馬と金を取るのが決断の一着で△同玉に▲25銀と打ち△23玉まで一本道に進みますが（△23玉以外の応手は、いずれも早詰）、▲33と～43金でと金から金に変えるのが上手い手順で、以下角成から馬を引いての収束となります。

今回（３月２１日付朝日新聞朝刊別刷「be on saturday」掲載）の問題です。

豊川孝弘七段作の７手詰です。
（レベル 中級）

手数が短いので、解き慣れた方なら時間はかからないのではないでしょうか。

逆に不得手な方には、問題図をよく見て落ち着いて考えていただけたら解けるはずです。

頑張って解いていただきたいと思います。
