Chapter 401: Problematic

When Huai Shi changed her clothes and walked out of the bedroom, the old man who presided over the concert hall showed a puzzled expression: "Are you going to go out like this?"

"Huh?"

Huai Shi was puzzled and looked down at herself.

A low-key and defensive gray iron trench coat, a pair of durable cargo pants after alchemy, a pair of boots that will not have a problem running over mountains and mountains, and an artifact satchel with various equipment such as the Sword of Virtue and other equipment that can also save emergencies.

Simply armed to the teeth, enough to handle any trouble.

Flawless!

"Any questions?"

“......”

The old man's expression suddenly became complicated, and he put down the towel in his hand, "Please wait." ”

Within a few minutes, he came out of the storeroom with a whole set of brand-new dresses in a preservation bag, and chose a pair of leather shoes, a shirt and a tie, and a pocket towel for Huaishi.

After putting it down, he looked at the young man in front of him again and asked, "I wonder if you have a habit of using a tie clip?"

"Uh, no need, right?"

Huai Shi hesitated to accept this kindness, waved his hand and said: "To be honest, I am already very satisfied that I can live here for free, and I have no need for other things." ”

"But these are all within the scope of membership services. The old man asked suspiciously, and then suddenly said: "If you don't feel that these can't match your identity, I can contact the tailor shop to make an exclusive custom service for you later." ”

"No, no, no, I just don't think it's a normal relationship. Huai Shi waved her hand and said seriously: "If I can pay, my heart will feel much better." ”

The old man was silent for a moment

"I see the problem. ”

He suddenly laughed and asked seriously, "You are now a quite successful sublimator, and you have achieved fame. But would you consider giving up on music and investing your time and love for it?"

Huai Shi shook his head as a matter of course.

"Well, music won't give up on you. ”

The old man put the gown in his hand and said solemnly, "This hospitality comes from your heartfelt love for art, and nothing else.

This is a small tribute to your passion for the arts, and you deserve it, and rightfully deserve it. ”

As he spoke, the old man representing the Hell United Music Association stroked his chest and saluted, and said calmly: "Unless one day you abandon all this, we will not leave you." ”

Huai Shi was silent for a long time, and couldn't help laughing: "Is this a blessing or a curse of art?"

"It's just a trivial hospitality. ”

The old man took a step back and left respectfully.

Huai Shi turned her head and looked at the low-key and solemn dress on the table, and after a long time, she couldn't help but shrug her shoulders and change into new clothes.

I took a look in the mirror.

So the handsome young man in the dress in the mirror grinned at him and smiled.

It looks decent and pleasant.

"I've been waiting. ”

Huai Shi pushed open the door of the lounge and nodded to the girl inside: "Miss Yuan, can we go?"

When Yuan Yuan raised his head and saw the new Huai Shi in front of him, he was stunned for a moment, and he didn't react before the standard business smile passed down by Lao Liu.

It took a long time before I noticed that I was unconscious.

"Just call me the original fate. ”

Hiding some fleeting emotion, she said politely.

Just as he was going out, Huai Shi heard a small sound behind him again.

This time...... It seems to be getting closer.

"Where's the original photo?" he asked casually, "didn't he come?"

"I seemed to be staying up late playing games last night, and then I suddenly caught a cold, and now I'm sleeping in a hotel. Yuan Yuan shook his head regretfully: "No matter how you call it, you don't want to get up." ”

"Really?"

Huai Shi nodded casually, recalling the few calls she had just made to the original photo that were not connected at all, and her heart sank slightly.

But at the same time, although he didn't know what Yuan Yuan was planning, he began to have some expectations.

- What will greet you from outside?

.

.

Today's stars seem to be different from yesterday.

The same bustle and hustle and bustle, but there were more train officers dressed in black and with indifferent expressions on the streets, who did not hide their vigilance, and their cold eyes swept over the faces of one passenger after another.

And there are a lot of security and scanning equipment, and under the cameras everywhere, the otherwise happy and relaxed travelers can't help but be depressed.

"What's wrong?" Huai Shi looked at the people suspiciously.

"I guess it was last night. ”

Beside him, Yuan Yuan said: "I heard that many people had nightmares last night, as if it was some kind of curse, and even the management of the train was not spared. Is Mr. Huai Shi resting well?"

"I slept well, I didn't have any dreams, and as soon as I opened my eyes, it was dawn. ”

Huai Shi replied: "Maybe it's because of the dream catcher I bought during the day yesterday, and no nightmares came to bother me." What about you, Miss Yuanyuan?"

"I didn't fall asleep much. ”

Yuan Yuan shook his head: "I always don't sleep well outside, and I slept lightly for a while when it was almost morning - if it's convenient, we'll buy two more dreamcatchers by the way, I hope it will work." ”

"Okay, but I can't remember exactly where that stall was yesterday, so let's see if you're lucky. Huai Shi thoughtfully asked, "Do you need to find a place to rest for a while?"

"No need, let's go. ”

Yuan Yuan quickened his pace and led the way in front.

It's not far away, just one floor, just above a rather bustling street. Outside the quaintly decorated storefront, there is already a store manager waiting in front.

"Welcome back again, Miss Hara. ”

The manager bowed his head and smiled politely: "The violins you named yesterday have just been delivered to the store, are you going to watch them now?"

"Of course, trouble. ”

Yuan Yuan bowed his head and walked into the store behind the door.

The moment she stepped into the store, Huai Shi felt several eyes vaguely look at her. As he looked around, the clerks quickly withdrew their gaze.

I don't know if I prepared in advance or if I really planned to buy a piano.

Soon, after serving the black tea and asking them for a while, three piano cases were brought up between the aluminum alloy iron box and the sponge.

Just the three delicate piano cases in the iron box know that the price is expensive.

It also contains a faint fluctuation of essentia, which is obviously the painstaking effort and will of the luthier when it is carefully made, even if it does not need to be opened, Huai Shi can feel that it is a rare famous product.

After the case was opened, the manager began to enthusiastically introduce the origin and history of the three violins, and one of the oldest of them can be traced back to decades ago.

After such a long period of time, there is still no damage to be seen, and it becomes more and more precious under careful care.

After the manager's introduction, Huai Shi asked curiously.

"Generally speaking, shouldn't you have a luthier stationed in the store to give advice to customers at all times?

The manager's smile stiffened, and his pupils moved slightly, as if he was about to look somewhere. Xuan even restrained himself and showed an apologetic expression: "Due to physical reasons, the pianist has not been able to come to the store to provide services to guests in the past two days, please forgive me for the inconvenience caused." ”

"It's okay, it's not necessarily better than me anyway. ”

Huai Shi waved her hand calmly, but the manager's expression twitched: I don't know if I admire Huai Shi's face, or if I am curious about where the criticism came from, my self-confidence is so inflated.

There is no need for a choice.

The three instruments are all rare and good instruments, and the timbre difference is not large, although the price is also very beautiful, but it is not a problem for the wealthy original family at all.

The only difference is the right style of playing.

Again, this is not important for beginners.

Those who learn at the beginning must go through the most rigid, rigorous and detailed training to lay a good foundation, and after three or four years of hard practice, they can talk about such a thing as playing style.

Talking about this with Meng Xin is as ridiculous as talking to elementary school students about how to choose a college major.

Huai Shi casually pointed to a handful that looked the best, and suggested to Yuan Yuan: "You can give this one a try." ”

The girl picked up the piano according to her words, and after a pause, she played a piece of "Little Concerto" quite skillfully. The performance of this section is not lost, and it is obviously quite skillful.

After a brief performance, she looked back at Huai Shi and asked for his opinion.

"It's pretty good, although I haven't played the violin much, but I can hear that your tone is very good, and the basic skills are very good. ”

Huai Shi casually picked a few small faults and talked about them, Yuan Yuan lowered his head and pulled it again, this time it seemed to be better again.

The perception is quite good.

The vibrato is always a bit out of place, though.

Huai Shi stood behind her and corrected some of her omissions in playing, and before she knew it, the two of them were already very close, almost feeling her temperature.

Just as Huai Shi was about to reach out to correct her fingering, she heard a voice behind her.

"Excuse me, several, can you show us the papers?"

Two patrolling guards walked into the store, breaking the atmosphere.

Huai Shi took a step back, only to see that the clerks had approached here without knowing the suitability, as if they were watching. And in the reflection of the cabinet glass, a trace of gloom flashed in Yuan Yuan's smile, and it quickly converged.

"No problem. ”

Huai Shi handed over the documents and let them check them.

When they saw the sign of the Astronomical Society on the certificate of the inspector Huaishi, the two guards who were patrolling were also stunned for a moment, took it respectfully with both hands, and returned it after verifying it.

Soon they were gone.

Yuan Yuan picked up the violin again, ready to say something, but heard Huaishi's voice.

"I'm sorry, I'm out for a cigarette. ”

He pushed the door straight out.

.

.

Definitely problematic.

In the alley next to the pedestrian street, Huai Shi leaned against the wall of the carriage, lowered her head and lit the cigarette at the corner of her mouth, recalling everything just now.

What would have happened if the guards hadn't pushed the door open and barged in?

He narrowed his eyes in contemplation.

A voice came from the side: "Can I borrow a fire?"

"Okay. ”

Huai Shi subconsciously handed over the lighter, but the other side did not answer. After Huai Shi looked up, he reacted and widened his eyes.

"Why are you here?"
