Chapter 27: Joining the Mission

March 17, 1321

"It's been two weeks since I joined Nature's Heart, and in the past two weeks, I have clearly felt that my actual combat ability has improved. During this time, there was a lot of ability to use combat and firearms, and many of the criminal skills were almost useless except for frequent lockpicking. However, it is an official extraordinary, and it would be too outrageous if there were still a lot of criminal skills. ”

"According to the actual combat during this time, I personally think that perceptual sensitization is the most subtle and useful one of the abilities given to me by the 'prisoner' potion, which strengthens my ability to process all the information I perceive, and allows me to find a lot of information that I have not noticed before and then use it effectively, making up for the problem that I was originally limited by personal knowledge and experience, and cannot make full use of the information I have discovered."

"After completing the blacksmith's guild theft, Alyssa shifted her focus to the cases within the church she was responsible for. Sometimes she would pull me to tutor me on acting and disguise skills during breaks. Well, it's a very practical trick, and it's easy to learn. It's just that the ominous premonition I've been feeling in her lately has strengthened, and hasn't Ms. Jones found out the cause yet? ”

......

Agnes walked into the cafeteria of the Institute of Biological Research of Izuria, sat down expertly at the piano, and prepared to practice piano music for a while.

She has recently moved some of her piano practice time to research, after all, the piano in the institute is good, and she can get feedback from other people in the institute, although some of them don't really understand these things, but the appeal of music is not limited to knowledge.

Agnes played Monsieur Conte's "Disi Caprice", an earlier piece by Mr. Conte, in C major in 3/8 time, with a certain Dissy style that is very reminiscent of the dancing Dicy girl. During this time, Agnes was transforming Mr. Conte's violin works into piano pieces, which not only helped Agnes to grasp the emotions of a piece, but also helped Agnes master the technique of expressing the emotions in the music through the techniques of different instruments, and this one is one of them.

Before arrangement, it is necessary to have a sufficient understanding of the design and layout of the original song, and at the same time to grasp the performance of the piano, the range and the composition technique suitable for the piano. The violin is a melodic instrument, and adapting a violin piece into a piano piece requires the addition of appropriate chords and left-hand accompaniment.

Agnes asked Mr. Conte what he was inspired to create, what he wanted to express, and then added her own understanding. To understand the composition of chords, Agnes consulted some other piano pieces. She tries to grasp the main theme of a piece, remove the main theme, and then feel the chord progression.

Agnes played it to Mr. Conte when she was finished, which was acknowledged by Mr. Conte. However, Agnes felt that her piano version lacked some lightness compared to the original version of Monsieur Conte's violin, and that some of the fragments that used the violin bow technique to express the light dance steps of the Lady Dicy were not fully expressed through the piano technique. As Mr. Conte commented - "Your music is more gentle and elegant than mine, of course, this does not mean that you are bad, different composers will always bring their own style".

Agnes finished the capriccio, and the restaurant burst into applause. Agnes smiled, got up and gracefully curtsy. Then he said goodbye to the team members in the cafeteria and the ordinary researchers of the research institute, and walked upstairs.

"Agnes, it's just right, the captain is looking for you." Rhaenys was walking downstairs and seemed to be on her way to the dining room to call her.

"Okay, Rhaenys, do you know what the captain is looking for me for?" Agnes took two quick steps, caught up with Rhaenys, and asked.

Rhaenys smiled, winked her left eye mischievously, and said, "Guess? ”

Agnes went through the things related to herself, showed a smile, and said, "My mission to join the team is confirmed?" ”

"Agnes, it's not interesting for you to just say the answer." Rhaenys sighed and said.

Agnes smiled helplessly and said, "It's easy to guess, there are only a few things that the captain will look for me, and if you exclude things that are not relevant for the time being, there is only the task of joining the team." ”

"Okay." Rhaenys said weakly.

Agnes couldn't help but smile a little.

The two walked together to the door of Mr. Claude's office, and Rhaenys said with some disinterest, "The captain is inside, you can go in by yourself." ”

Agnes couldn't help but smile: "Thank you, I'll play the piano for you at some time, and you can pick the tune." ”

Rhaenys' eyes lit up and she said, "That's okay, don't deny it." ”

"Yes, it won't." Agnes smiled and nodded, knocked on the office door, and walked inside.

"Captain." Agnes looked at Mr. Claude.

"Sit down." Mr. Claude motioned for Agnes to sit down in the chair across from the desk.

He flipped through a stack of papers, and Agnes stole a glance at what seemed to be the information of many people.

"You've been on the team for two weeks." Mr. Claude said casually.

"Yes."

"It's time to complete your induction mission." Mr. Claude pulled a page out of it and handed it to Agnes.

"Your mission has been determined, which is to hunt down this person."

"A member of the Rose School?" Agnes saw the line on the document at a glance.

"Yes, the Church is going to clean up the Rose School members near Fenerport City."

"Okay." Agnes went through the papers.

"Theodore Resley, a Sequence 9 criminal, has been seen in many Boggart streets in the shallow port district, and has been hunted down by the Church of Steam for committing multiple attacks on lonely girls in Intis." Agnes read it softly, and next to the document, there was a picture of Theodore.

"Yes, that's where you're for today. You can either catch them alive or shoot them outright, and the church doesn't need to interrogate them. Channeling is also not required. ”

"I see." Agnes nodded and asked, "I want to ask, has the Church's cleanup of the Rose School begun?" ”

"Not yet, this operation will be started by the Heart of Nature team first, and the Warden will be in charge of their mid-to-high sequence, and Olivier will also participate."

"Can I see the other pursuers? If I run into them in the middle of my mission, I can send back a message in time. ”
