Early the next morning.

Qin Jian woke up, took a shower, changed into clean clothes and left the room.

Passing by next door, he called Natsuki and explained his intention to the other party, and then the two went downstairs together to the manor's restaurant.

During the meal, he sent He Jing a message explaining the itinerary, in fact, he didn't know the next itinerary, but just said that he wanted to go out with Shen Qingci.

After a light breakfast, the three of them set off.

The snow was still falling outside the estate.

...

An hour later, the three got off the subway and walked along the white street for about ten minutes.

"What is this?"

Looking at the several bungalows full of heaviness in the fence in front of him, Qin Jian secretly guessed where this was, but he couldn't read the handwriting on the door plaque with a low level of education.

"It's the Nirgoz Conservatory!"

Xia Shu walked to Qin Jian's side in one step, and also looked up at the scene in front of him, the girl's eyes were full of vitality.

"Huh?"

Without giving Qin Jian time to be surprised, Shen Qingci was the first to walk into the door.

"Let's go. ”

The campus was clear.

Occasionally, people who looked like students with musical instruments or music clips on their backs passed by in twos and threes.

"Teacher Shen, where are we going?"

The campus is not big, after passing a teaching building, seeing that there is a small garden at the end of the path, and behind the garden is a fence, Qin Jian couldn't help but ask.

Shen Qingci stopped and turned to the left.

Qin Jian Xia Shu looked at it together, only to find that there was a small glass door hidden behind a few cedars on the left side of the small garden.

"Sure enough, it's here!"

Xia Shu's excited appearance made Qin Jian feel that he was the one who was brought over by the way.

Following the two suspiciously, Qin Jian walked into the glass door.

As soon as he entered the door, the hot air on his face made the tip of his nose feel a lot more comfortable.

However, the truth has not yet been revealed, and a wooden staircase leading to the underground is a bit long from above, giving people a slight sense of oppression.

The moment he walked down the stairs, looking at the rows of bookshelves displayed in front of him, Qin Jian understood.

"Garden Library!"

Natsuki liked the feeling of being here, looked around, and walked around on his own.

Although the garden library is not included as a tourist attraction in the brochure of Moscow travel guides, this does not mean that the place is not famous, on the contrary, it receives many tourists every year.

It's just that Qin Jian is lonely and unheard.

It's probably not the peak tourist season, nor is it a weekend or holiday, so there aren't many people in the library at this time, and the few foreigners don't look like tourists yet.

"This is the library of the Niegoz Conservatory and a bookstore. ”

After Shen Qingci gave an explanation, Qin Jian suddenly became interested, it was the bookstore that meant that he could buy some books that he was interested in.

It would be better if I could include a few more editions of scores that I had not seen before, such as Rachmaninoff's works or Allodin's operas.

Just as he was about to leave, Shen Qingci stopped him: "Don't worry, you come with me first." ”

Saying that, Shen Qingci took Qin Jian to the corner, and another descending staircase appeared in front of the two.

"Is there anything else down there?" Qin Jian asked nonsense.

followed Shen Qingci down another floor, and the second basement floor looked much smaller than the first floor, with only four or five rows of bookshelves and a few tables.

At this moment, a brown-haired aunt with a work card walked towards the two, Shen Qingci showed her a card, and then said two sentences in Russian, and the aunt left with a smile.

Qin Jian saw the novelty, and Shen Qingci explained: "The books here can only be borrowed by college professors. ”

"That?" Qin Jian's expression seemed as if he had discovered something unusual, but in the blink of an eye, he frowned again.

He remembered that yesterday the other party mentioned that there was an experience in Russia, but that experience should have been at the Glinka Conservatory, right?

Shen Qingci saw Qin Jian's doubts, and then handed the card in his hand to Qin Jian.

Qin Jian took it and looked at it, it was full of characters such as 'Alpha Beta Karma' that appeared in high school mathematics, and he couldn't understand it at all.

But in the end, his eyes fell on a row of English characters above the horizontal line—

“Dan... iel... Por... por... te”

Reading it again in fits and starts, there was a buzz in front of his head, and a big bright face appeared in his mind.

This time he felt like he had really discovered something extraordinary.

“porte！！”

"Uncle Potter!?" Qin Jian exclaimed incredulously.

Shen Qingci smiled, "Accident?"

Accidental, not unexpected.

Soon Qin Jian calmed down, thinking about it, is the identity of the old bartender still less?

For a while, Qin Jian missed the old man a little bit again.

"Is Uncle Potter still in Germany?"

Shen Qingci nodded and answered Qin Jian's question, "Come with me." ”

The two of them came to the bookshelf.

...

...

"This is Claude Paliska's A Brief History of Christian Music, Russian State Music Publishing Agency, 1946"

This is a book published by the Tchaikovsky Conservatory Publishing House in 1921 as Eri Gerhard's The Critical Tradition of Romantic Theory. ”

"Kararetskaya, Introduction to Music of the Twentieth Century..."

...

The genealogy of various precious materials and documents opened Qin Jian's eyes.

Suddenly.

His eyes fell on a book catalogue, and what attracted him was the title, but also the author.

Author Shen Qingci. ”

"On Chopin and the Piano Technique of the Modern School"

Qin Jian hurriedly took out and turned to the title page, on which the publication information was clearly written.

'First edition, 2009. ’

'Yenching Jinghua Publishing House. ’

Although Mei hasn't browsed the content yet, being included in this kind of place is enough to show its weight.

However, Shen Qingci just smiled, "This is my graduation thesis that year. ”

More than 200 pages of dissertation... Also published...

Qin Jian can only say Niu X.

Although the four rows of bookshelves are not long, they are basically all foreign bibliographies, and it took Shen Qingci nearly half an hour to translate and introduce them.

Finally, Shen Qingci pulled out a book the size of an A4 page with a white cover from a row of books.

"There's everything you want to know. ”

As he spoke, he handed the book to Qin Jian with a smile on his face.

Qin Jian's heart moved, and he hurriedly took it.

It is a German book.

With a short period of time to learn German, he was able to guess the title of the book.

'The Historical Development of the Piano Art in Russia'

When he saw the author's name again, he was a little confused.

“HeinrichGustavovichNeuhaus。 ”

Names like this format have been seen a lot in Germany and Vienna.

So at a glance he recognized it as an out-and-out German name.

It would not be surprising if a German wrote a history of the development of piano art in Russia.

This author's name can be translated into Chinese.

Heinrich Gustavovich Negauz...

"Negoz is a German?!"

Qin Jian asked repeatedly.

"A true German. ”

Shen Qingci was not slow or fast.

“...”

This is really not Qin Jian's fuss

A German pianist educator is actually the founder of one of the four major Russian piano schools?

He felt that the cognitive system he had just built up had collapsed in half.

...

"Why?"
