89. The repertoire is all about lies
On Wednesday, Yotsuya Station twisted into a mirage in the sun, and Toru Watanabe's first swimming lesson at High School began.
When I was in elementary school in my hometown, there was swimming lessons at school, and at that time, although Toru Watanabe could swim, it was just a playful nature, and the breaststroke dog could come as much as he wanted.
The only teacher also doesn't do any teaching, just sits there and eats a cold drink of watermelon, and looks after their safety by the way.
Fitness swimming really started after the Ochanomizu incident – not just swimming, a lot of things changed at that time.
Now, he can swim like an athlete.
Classes 1 and 4 were still closed, but the men and women were completely separated, and only the screams and laughter of the girls could be heard through the walls.
Change into swimsuits and the boys meet by the pool.
The sky was very blue and beautiful, like an oil painting, but the sun made the skin hurt.
The PE teacher wore a whistle around his neck and said what to pay attention to when swimming.
"Ah, I miss it so much." Osamu Kunii looked at the daughter country across the wall and proposed an idea.
"Let's sneak on a women's swimsuit and sneak in." Toru Watanabe said how.
"I see!" Kunii Shu fists and palms hit each other.
"The question is, where do you get the dead water?" Keisuke Saito further analyzed.
"Hmmm......"
End of topic.
After the physical education teacher finished speaking, everyone washed their bodies in the shower area first, and walked in front and back, much like the scene of queuing up for a car wash.
The air was full of moisture and the pungent smell of chlorine disinfectant.
After that, they did the warm-up exercises, and everyone went into the water.
After the first half of the lesson, you can swim freely in the second half.
One by one, the boys were picked up by a meter from the pool, and the PE teacher shouted reprimands them for stopping this dangerous behavior this time.
"Lane 3! Watanabe swims so fast! ”
"Ahh The Kunii players didn't dare to lag behind, and used the triple realm king fist! He's overtaking! Overtaking! ”
"Oh! Look over there, that's, that'!! Saito's fivefold king punch! So fast! It's too fast! ”
"What? After receiving the latest news, Watanabe is going to use his nirvana - serious swimming! ”
......
It's just that the three of them wanted to compete on a whim, and they were actually enthusiastically explained by this group of high school boys to the Ninety-ninth Cosmic Martial Arts Conference.
By the way, Toru Watanabe, the king of the triple and fivefold realms, doesn't know what it is, but the so-called serious swimming is just swimming hard.
"Watanabe, why are you so powerful?"
"First tennis, then swimming, and if this continues, I won't be your opponent in baseball in the future!"
"Swim like a dolphin! It's so fast! ”
The boys teased one after another, and some even thought that Toru Watanabe would have no problem being a swimmer.
Toru Watanabe didn't want to be a swimmer.
If he is good at something, he will do it, he will probably be exhausted.
And for the sake of the textbook compilers, it's better not to be too showy.
Academic, Olympic swimming gold medalist, world-class oboeist, world-class boxer – he's only 16 years old, and it's hard to imagine how many more names he'll be called in the future.
In the evening, in the activity classroom of the Human Observation Department, Rin Kiyono walks in with a record player with the Iron Triangle logo.
The world was silent, the window was so dark that nothing could be seen outside, and the glass clearly reflected the human face.
Except for the wind club on the third floor opposite, there is not a single extra light on in the school building.
Toru Watanabe was a little lonely, remembering that he had come to the metropolis alone, far away from his hometown in Iwate Prefecture.
In order to dispel the sudden unpleasantness, he withdrew his gaze and watched with curiosity as Rin Kiyono fiddled with the record player.
"Kiyono-san, can I ask you a question?"
"Huh?" Rin Kiyono carefully took out the vinyl record from the square paper bag.
"What do you think about the fact that life originated in the ocean, but humans cannot breathe in water?"
"No opinion." Rin Kiyono replied without raising his head.
"Don't you feel weird? Why haven't we humans evolved to be amphibians like frogs, turtles, red chain snakes, etc.? The oceans are much richer in terms of area and resources than the continents. ”
"You can choose to be a biologist and figure out these questions instead of asking a girl in your grade for answers at night about the nasty topics of frogs and snakes."
"Biologist...... I don't really want to do it. Watanabe thought about it and rejected the proposal.
"As if you can."
"If I hadn't played the oboe, I would have been now!"
Rin Kiyono had a solemn face: "Watanabe-san, your mental illness is getting worse and worse, and now there is a problem with your self-awareness, so it is really urgent to seek medical attention." ”
Toru Watanabe was about to retort when Rin Kiyono placed the stylus on the slowly turning record.
The timbre is bright, cheerful and lively, like a cat's stepping, and the melody slowly sounds.
Trombone roar, French horn ensemble, clarinet harmony, bass drum roar, oboe solo.
The sound is continuous, like the flowing water of the Yangtze River, and then the wave of sound retracts rapidly like a low tide.
Toru Watanabe picked up the record paper bag and read the title of the song.
, composed by Akiichi Kawa, played by Essence Girls' High School Wind Club.
On the other side, Rin Kiyono walked to the left to support the table with his elbows, supported his chin, and held a pen in his right hand to keep recording something.
Toru Watanabe listened silently, his fingers tapping out of thin air along with the score.
Beautiful music, and the activity classroom with lights on in the middle of the night in the unmanned school building, brew an intimate and harmonious atmosphere.
"Do you want to pick this one?" After the music, Toru Watanabe asked.
"Hmm." Rin Kiyono nodded.
In the Wind Ensemble Competition, each wind ensemble will play a project piece and a free song, which is one of the free songs that can be selected this year.
The piece was produced by the Wind Music Alliance at the invitation of first-line composer Hideichi Kawa.
A few years ago, this piece was selected as a free song by Elite Girls' High School, and won the national gold award, and it immediately became famous.
It is now one of the regular repertoire of the competition.
Speaking of the characteristics of this piece, I have to mention its composer - Akiichi Kawa, a graduate of Musashino Music University.
When Akiichi Kawa was young, he was active on the music stage as a professional oboe player, so he also arranged oboe.
To exaggerate a little, the bottom of this piece depends on the whole orchestra, and the upper limit depends on the performance of the oboeists.
"A wise choice." Toru Watanabe said confidently.
Rin Kiyono didn't hear this beautiful sentence that seemed to praise herself, but it was actually Toru Watanabe's boasting.
Toru Watanabe said again, "However, is it really okay for you to decide for yourself without consulting them?" ”
"If you want society to progress, a democratic vote is the stupidest option."
"Ah, ah, I understand." Toru Watanabe nodded approvingly, "Ultraman's mission is to forcibly guide the evolution of stupid humans, isn't it?" ”
Regarding what Toru Watanabe was saying, Rin Kiyono didn't understand at all.
She glanced at Toru Watanabe with the eyes of an idiot.
Toru Watanabe changed the subject without blushing at all: "That is, you yourself are not allowed to fail, so you decided to choose the track yourself?" ”
"That's not the only reason."
"Uh-huh." Toru Watanabe was noncommittal.
When Rin Kiyono saw his attitude, she was inexplicably angry and wanted to punch him.
She explains:
"Their musical knowledge is uneven, and they will only choose according to whether their vocal part is good to play, and the popularity of the repertoire, the decision of the conference repertoire, and the survival of the Human Observation Department, and all the options that lead to the abolition of the part, I will try my best to rule it out."
"That's right." Toru Watanabe still looked unconvinced.
This man, knowing that he would not lie...... Rin Kiyono took a deep breath.
"Another reason is that the biggest advantage of the wind club at the moment is your oboe, which is the biggest reason why I decide the repertoire."
With the degree that the wind club hates Toru Watanabe, there is a high probability that he will not choose this piece that relies on the oboe.
Toru Watanabe leaned back on the steel tube chair with his head in his hands, looking at the ceiling and letting out a sigh of satisfaction.
Rin Kiyono endured and endured it, so he didn't smash the eraser at hand.
At nine o'clock, Rin Kiyono expressed his views in the music classroom.
"The topic song of this competition, the free song is."
"These two ......" the head of the wind department, Misaki Komatsu, wanted to speak and stopped.
The members of the department who had never heard these two songs cast puzzled and curious eyes.
"Minister, what's wrong? Is it hard? ”
"Hmm." Misaki Komatsu nodded, "It's full of storytelling, and it pays attention to musical performance." It requires very, very high expressiveness and playing skills, but ......"
"But what?" Everyone can't wait to ask.
Misaki Komatsu looked at Rin Kiyono and hesitated whether to say it.
Toru Watanabe picked up the topic: "From the middle stage, you can rest." With your current level, you can bring out my mastery even more, so you just wait for the award. ”
"What do you mean by that?" A member of the department who didn't react asked.
"In the first piece, the solo part is a tubone, trombone and an oboe. ...... This piece is special, and a large part of it is the free play of the oboe. "I also know the interpretation of these two songs.
Everyone reacted and began to discuss, and most of them had unwillingness on their faces.
Rin Kiyono glanced at everyone: "Whether it's choosing people or determining the repertoire, everything is aimed at entering the whole country, if anyone thinks there is a better choice, they can put it forward now." ”
Tamamo said in a loud voice: "Since it's all about the play of the oboe, can we just practice casually?" ”
This is clearly angry talk.
"Solo is a plus, and the real good or bad depends on everyone's performance." Rin Kiyono replied.
Another person asked, "Then why do you have to let him play solo?" Can't you choose a piece for a bassoon solo, or a trumpet solo? ”
Mai Tomorrow's blowing technique is good, but the tuba is not a very outstanding instrument, so everyone did not say that they would choose the bass horn solo repertoire.
"You should know why." Toru Watanabe said.
"What?"
"Because my blowing technique is the undisputed first in the history of the wind club."
His natural tone made many people so angry that their faces turned red.
"I don't know if it's the first in history," Rin Kiyono looked at the arrogant Toru Watanabe, "but he's really the best wind playing technique in the wind club at the moment." ”
"I'm not convinced! Senior Sister Hayami and Senior Sister Tomorrow's skills are definitely stronger than him! ”
"That's right, it's so unfair! Since the members of Group A are selected, the soloists should also be selected! ”
"Okay!" Without waiting for Rin Kiyono to speak, Toru Watanabe happily got up and walked up to the podium with an oboe.
"If you want to challenge, come on, I, Toru Watanabe, am going to let you guys who are worse than garbage know the difference between geniuses and mortals today."
Ah, I'm stunned, and I'm finally doing what the protagonist should do!
He Toru Watanabe never wanted to live with girls' panties and stockings!
What he wants is hard work, hard work, passion, to be number one – of course, this is life before the age of twenty-five.
Under the flickering white lights of the music classroom, Toru Watanabe looked at everyone expectantly.
Everyone blushed angrily and set their eyes on Mai Tomorrow.
Mai Tomorrow also seems to be angry, and her expressionless face is dyed with a faint flush, and she is looking at the arrogant Toru Watanabe on the podium in a daze.
But isn't it too long to watch? Why not go up?
By the way, Mai Tomorrow doesn't care about these in the first place, as long as she can play it.
The people who had figured it out turned their eyes to Hayami again.
Hayami smiled helplessly, looked at Rin Kiyono, and saw her nodding before standing up and stepping forward with a hookah-like bassoon.
"Watanabe-san, please let me take a good look at your strength."
Looking at Hayami's gentle smile as always, Toru Watanabe lost his fighting spirit, this senior sister with a good personality was forced to come up by everyone.
What he needs is an enemy who looks down on him and even wants to use petty means!
He Toru Watanabe is not a bad person, and he does not have the habit of relying on strength and provoking people regardless of good or bad.
However, in order to attract hatred, motivate everyone to practice hard, obediently listen to Rin Kiyono's guidance, and ensure that the wind club enters the national competition, he still needs to continue to be a 'wicked person'.
"Then you come first, see Senior Sister early." Toru Watanabe said.
He was worried that if he played first, the other party would be under a lot of pressure.
"Thank you."
After Hayami finished speaking, the delicate and gentle bassoon notes filled the entire music classroom.
Whether it's the treble or the seams of the notes that are difficult to blow, everything is perfect, and there is not even a single flaw to be found.
The tone is shiny and heart-pounding. Everyone closed their eyes and indulged.
Hayashi's level has improved a lot compared to before, and Toru Watanabe can hear the traces of hard work behind her performance from her performance.
At the end of the performance, there was a very warm applause.
Hayami smiled and nodded, satisfied with his performance just now.
"Watanabe-san, it's your turn."
"Okay."
The smooth melody barely feels the change of notes, and each note is wrapped around a hot aftertaste.
After Toru Watanabe's performance, the entire concert hall was silent, and only Mai Asuki was there to applaud faintly and seemingly copingly.
The crowd who came back to their senses looked at her with admiration.
is worthy of being a senior sister, what a pure musical heart...... The ashamed crowd applauded.
Kujou Miki has returned, senior sister, if you do this again, junior brother, I am really going to die...... Toru Watanabe looked at Mai's bulging boobs and guessed what she was thinking.
"Earlier, I decided to choose the repertoire for Watanabe-san to play solo, what do you think?" Rin Kiyono asked.
"I have no opinion, Watanabe-san plays better than me, and he is also a member of the wind club, so he has no problem playing as a soloist." Hayami said with a smile that was not lost at all.
Rin Kiyono nodded, and instructed everyone: "Everyone come to me to get the audio file of the tune, store it in the player, listen to it every day, you must memorize the score, and don't let the judges write down the evaluation of 'what are the others here for except the oboe'." ”
"Yes!"
At half past eleven, on the way back.
"Senior Sister Tomorrow seems to be angry." Rin Kiyono said.
"Is there one?" Toru Watanabe wondered.
"It's the first time I've seen her have emotions, and sure enough, you're too arrogant."
"It's all for you."
"Lies." Rin Kiyono unceremoniously denied, and continued, "Do you want to talk to her alone?" Tomorrow's senior sister's personality will help us keep it a secret. ”
"No, no." Toru Watanabe refused without thinking.
Individually?
He was still worried about how he couldn't be caught by the other party and had the opportunity to be alone, how could he be sent to the door?
"Why?" As always, Rin Kiyono asks for other people's opinions.
"I can't talk to people who are not interested in playing cards."
