Chapter 10: Is It Him?

"Who?!" Delin seemed to have a premonition of something, and his eyebrows were raised very high. The sound of Shanhu's piano also came to an abrupt end. What she noticed was Delin's expression, even though the violin performance just now reminded her of too many dusty memories, those days at the Julian Conservatory, but as long as Delin had any uneasiness, she would immediately focus her attention on Delin. So she returned the violin to Hughes and handed the bow to the gentleman behind Delin. The gentleman locked his eyes on Shanhu's face the moment he took the Bach bow, and in an instant, his facial features were all stretched, his lips opened slightly, and he was about to say something, when he heard Shanhu introduce himself in a still calm tone, unhurriedly: "Hello, my name is Shanhu." Although everyone now listened to this sentence in a language they could understand, the gentleman knew through the change of her lips that she was speaking German, and that the word "ist" ("yes" in German) was speaking very slowly. Shanhu then asked Hughes very concerned and surprised, "What's wrong?" Apparently she hadn't noticed anything before that.

"Something happened to Stephen Lee." Hughes was finally able to express himself completely. When Shanhu heard the news, she subconsciously hugged An Yina to her side, so that An Yuanna's head was tightly attached to her abdomen.

Delin's pupils contracted violently, so much so that in his vision, a tunnel was formed, and only the small circular area in the middle was bright, and it was very bright, so bright that all the images were just silhouettes, and the surrounding area was pitch black with scattered makeup. Even so, he asked in a consistent, steady tone, "Are you familiar with him?" ”

This is a very insightful question. With his relationship with Stephen Lee, if Stephen Lee knew someone, Delin had no reason not to know, and Hughes, if she had any connection with Stephen Lee, then the bridge of this connection should be himself, and in his memory, this bridge had never been built, at least he thought so.

And Hughes's eyes widened at this time, and he was completely in a state of imminent fall, but it was completely invisible to Delin, because the current Hughes was just a silhouette.

Delin didn't wait for Hughes's answer, apparently he already had a more important question: "Where is he now?" ”

Hughes was even more surprised, but at the same time, because she thought of Stephen Lee, whose life and death were uncertain, she couldn't hold back the sadness in her heart: "He is in Shanghai, and now he is lying in the Luzhao District Central Hospital." ”

Delin's eyes suddenly darkened, and even the tunnel was gone, and then gradually began to return to normal vision, and his right hand unconsciously touched the cigarette case in the pocket of his shirt, and the corners of his mouth raised an asymmetrical smile, and he continued: "He should be fine." ”

Hughes just showed a little incredulity, but instantly calmed down, "Is that you?" As he spoke, his head tilted slightly to the side.

Delin nodded slightly at Hughes, and his eyes blinked slightly.

"But I have to fly to Shanghai tomorrow." Hughes said firmly.

"Or I'll send you tomorrow. I'll be back in the afternoon. The well-dressed gentleman brushed sideways behind Delin and took a step forward to speak.

"You're afraid I'll delay your plans, right? Mr. Qiao San. Hughes said bluntly, still in that cynical tone, and the gaze of his eyes went directly into Qiao San's eyes, so that he couldn't avoid it at all.

Josan – Director of Operations at the Salzburg Festival, of course cares about Hughes's schedule, because there will be a solo violin recital by Hughes the next afternoon, and it will be the premiere of Hughes's own new work. He has already seen the score that Hughes gave him, the whole structure is a typical neoclassical style, and it is also traditional tonal music, although in notation, Hughes uses G major, and the four themes are extremely simple melodies, but with Qiao San's understanding of Hughes and the music, it is likely to be a piece in C sharp minor, and the improvisation will be beyond imagination when playing live. What's more, for this premiere, Qiao San has been promoting it for half a year and has won more than 5,000 live broadcast channels.

However, now that Hughes has talked about this, he is no longer twisting, and he is worried that Hughes will not come back tomorrow and the premiere will be lost. "Of course! Tomorrow afternoon's recital is not a pigeon. ”

"Tomorrow afternoon?" Delin and Shanhu asked in unison, "I'm afraid you're too late, right?" ”

"It doesn't matter." Hughes spread his hands out, and his gaze was still directly inserted into Sancho's eyes, "How many professional audiences are there at the scene?" I'll play one side tonight, and you'll just be holographic on the spot tomorrow, right? Moreover, the Tri-HiFi system can also be improvised according to the on-site situation, ensuring that there will be no goofs. ”

"Of course, you can't hide it from the two of you." Hughes said, turning his head to look at Shanhu, and at the same time shaking his eyes like Delin's.

"So, it's completely different!" Sancho burst out loudly, "The Salzburg Festival has a history of more than 300 years, and holographic technology has never been used!" ”

"Please! That's because the technology wasn't perfect before, okay? Now that you've seen Tri-HiFi, it's so real, isn't it perfectly presented? ”

Although Sancho was speechless by Hughes on this point, he insisted that he must play live. "And," Sancho continued, "my private jet is Mach 5. There was a hint of pride in his tone.

Sure enough, it was a proud description. As soon as his "Mach 5" came out, everyone at the scene cast envious eyes, except for the Delin family and Hughes.

"5 times faster than supersonic?! Isn't it possible to travel back and forth between Shanghai and Salzburg in less than 3 hours? The staff whispered.

In fact, Hughes didn't have a concept of the word "Mach", but she knew at least one thing that Sancho couldn't compare to Triple H's mobile system, no matter how fast he was. However, it was a little surprising to hear others talking about the fact that it only takes 3 hours to travel back and forth between Shanghai and Germany. After all, Salzburg and Shanghai are 8,900 kilometers apart.

Delin was genuinely surprised. But at this time, he didn't have time to think about these things, but thought about the plan for the operation. If the injured man was really Stephen Lee, and he was 200% sure that it was Stephen Lee, then their crazy plan was actually unfolding on Stephen Lee, who can be said to be the spiritual leader of the modern era, and I really don't know how they would explain if they made a slight mistake, especially Triple H's reputation.

Delin was thinking about his Triple H, unaware of Sancho's conversation with Hughes and Shanhu. When he came to his senses, he heard Hughes asking Shanhu, "Can't you use his right of first way?" Hughes's mouth snuggled at him. Of course not. Shanhu rejects Hughes with a rare tone, "Every transfer requires a lot of energy, and I know he can only apply for limited access when he's in Triple H." ”

"Ah, so?" Hughes was vaguely aware of the rules regarding the right of way, but was a little frustrated when it was confirmed again, especially when he was desperate to see Stephen Lee.

"When I first met him, wasn't he in Shanghai?" Shanhu said in a guided manner, "At that time, all emergency departments could not use special rights-of-way. ”

Hughes completely lost his thoughts, but he was still sullen. Delin had already approached the two of them, nodded to Hughes, and then said to Shanhu, "I'll go to the monitoring room, I should be back in half an hour." Then I'll go back to the hotel first. After Delin finished speaking, he turned his head, nodded at Hughes again, and said, "We'll talk again for dinner." ”

"Go ahead, busy man." Hughes no longer had a sad face at this time, and said to Delin with a slight sideways look: "If you don't accompany Shanhu, then I will accompany you." Delin was told whether to laugh or not, and saw a mixture of smirk and embarrassment on his face.

Shanhu, who was on Delin's side, saw Delin's expression, and suddenly the calmness on his face turned to sadness, and in an instant, his eyes flashed with scattered tears.
