In the past few days, Kamihara has spent all his time practicing endlessly.

The piano classroom in the club building No. 2.

The real piano room is on the third floor, where there is a Steinway grand piano, which is so valuable that you have to apply to the school to use it.

After staying in the music club for two days, Kamihara realized that the concept of the music club was very large, and what piano, bass, drum kit and other instruments were included in it, and until now, he still doesn't know how many people there are in the entire music club.

But at least, all the classrooms on the three floors of the club building seem to be the territory of the music department.

According to Nishijima Daiki's words, clubs also have different statuses in schools.

The autumn breeze blows through the transparent floor-to-ceiling windows of the music room, and Kamihara practices "Scottish Dance" to the subtle sound of the twin yellow pipes next door.

For him, with the skill of [dual-purpose], the coordination of the two hands is not a problem at all.

The key is the familiarity with the 88 keys, as well as the fingering of the fingers, and the perception of rhythm.

Tianhai Qi Mingyue moved a stool with a back to sit next to Kamihara Le, the school's classic Western-style school uniform, smooth over-the-knee stockings under the pleated skirt, and only a small area of fair thighs was exposed.

She wore the same pair of gold-rimmed glasses she usually wore and held an English book in her hand, sitting upright and quietly flipping through the pages at her side.

"The Sword Comes"

Paired with the slow-paced version of "Scottish Dance" in the tune of Kamihara's music, the pages brushed by her slender fingers also made a smooth sound, and the scent of ink was sparkling.

Every time she turned the page, Kamihara seemed to be able to catch the scent of paper.

The piano music in his hand was tired from practicing, and Kamihara was ready to stop and rest for a while.

"Go on." The seven bright moons of the sky and the sea are slightly open, and the voice is pleasant to the ear.

Kamihara Le couldn't help it, "Grandma, it's the third time, you let me rest for a while." ”

Tianhai Qi Mingyue clamped the book with one hand and placed it flat on her flat knees, she folded her hands in front of her, and raised her beautiful and emotionless face, "Tired of practicing at this level?" ”

The moment she lifted up, Kamihara Le was a little dazzled by the reflection on her gold-rimmed glasses, blinked her eyes and adapted to it for a few seconds, and when she squinted and looked at it again, Tianhai Qimingyue had already returned to her most familiar sitting position.

The way she sat on the stool was full of bearing.

is so dignified that it is not an exaggeration to say that she is a royal princess.

"I'm a newbie." Kamihara said helplessly, "It's impossible to do everything." ”

"It's even more important for beginners to practice, and remember that after a month you'll need to play a pro-level piece."

At this time, Kamihara Le really knew the difficulty of this industry when he really got started with the piano, other people's fingers are flying, and his own fingers are hen pecks, and flexibility is not in a dimension at all.

"By the way, Qi Mingyue, what level of strength are you? On the piano side...... Level 10 or above? ”

"So to speak, but it's better not to describe professional pianists in terms of amateur level, they will be ridiculed as idiots, and they will not have the true level of grade 10 after passing the grade 10 exam, and some only have a second or third level of music scores and throw them to those so-called grade 10 pianists, and they still can't play.

”

“... Not really. ”

The piano level 9 of the system is the piano level 9 of hard power?

Tianhai Qi Mingyue didn't intend to explain more: "There are people in every line who think they are superior. I can tell my brother very responsibly that my sister is hated by many people in the circle. ”

"Why?"

"My sister is the first in no matter where she goes or which competition she attends."

Jiuliuli's piano really doesn't have to be said.

At the last recital, there were almost no vacancies at the Tokyo Metropolitan Theater, which had a capacity of 2,000 people.

Searching for her name on the Internet, you can also find a lot of videos, both from competition shooting to private shooting.

"Jealousy. But shouldn't music be a grinding business, and everyone should be more friendly, right? ”

"Brother is wrong, not everyone sees the piano as an interest in cultivating sentiments."

If you think about it, that's right.

Piano industry, not to mention the threshold, people who take the piano as their life dream, how many parents and teachers' expectations are wrapped around their fingertips, how many classmates have gathered to encourage and look forward to the eyes, where is the music played, it is clear that the pressure of playing is called Mount Tai.

If you play in that environment, I'm afraid that if you don't play a syllable wrong, you will have to sweat on your forehead.

"My sister won't care about those words, her own strength is completely enough, and there are enough people who support her."

"For the sake of fame? Seven bright moons... You should be similar, why don't you see any videos of your performances on the Internet? ”

"I don't want to explain what doesn't work. Instead of discussing these, the elder brother should continue to practice. ”

"Okay."

Kamihara has no idea of resting now, so he has to continue to work harder.

Tianhai Qi Mingyue saw that his hands were put back on the keys, and deliberately said: "Pay attention to the fourth sentence of measures 13-16, these four sentences are in line with the structure of starting, bearing, turning, and combining, pay attention to the feeling, and don't care too much about the speed." ”

Despite her indifferent attitude, why does Kamihara still sound like she is very caring...?

Delusion, it must be an illusion.

......

The practice continued until 7 p.m.

From 3:30 p.m. until 7 p.m.

Kamihara felt that he had made rapid progress, and this afternoon, he was able to play the Scottish Dance smoothly... Ah, I have to say, the feeling of the mood driven by the flow of musical notes from the fingertips is really refreshing.

"It's just a second-level tune."

"Huh? Didn't you say teach me level three? ”

"It's not that someone is too stupid to just step by step." Tianhai Qi Mingyue carried her own small schoolbag with thin straps.

Shen Yuanle suddenly realized a problem: "It's 7 o'clock, didn't Jiu Liuli come to you to go home with you today?" ”

"I told her that there was something, so you don't need to call me."

"Oh."

"It's you, my sister-chan didn't come to contact you?" Tianhai Qi Mingyue asked rhetorically.

"Today she went home to live.,It seems to be a radio drama that is working overtime to record anime.,It's probably a talk drama with the voice actor of the same animation? I don't know much about that. ”

While chatting with Qi Mingyue, they simply tidied up the piano room together, put down the piano version, put the stool back in place, the lights went out, and Kamihara locked the door.

It's October, and no one will use this small practice room, so the minister handed over the key to himself for safekeeping.

"Seven bright moons."

Kamihara Le leanally lifted the shoulder that was hanging from the shoulder bag, and just wanted to shout Tianhai Qimingyue, but when he looked up, he found that she had gone ahead.

It was dark, there were a few lights in the corridor, and the girl's light back walked in front, and her long flaxen-colored hair was slightly shiny in front. Her legs in small leather shoes under the hem of her skirt can be clearly seen as shadows follow her movements.

Seeing that she had come around the corner, Kamihara quickly put the key back in his pocket and followed.

"How can you go so fast?"

While Tianhai Qi Mingyue was going down the stairs, he looked at the front and replied, "Go home." ”

The attitude is very cold.

Kamihara glanced at her face, and from the time she practiced with her until 7 p.m., her behavior was the opposite of her cold attitude.

In this respect, Kamihara is actually a little grateful to her.

Hmph, the little devil is actually still a bit duplicitous.

Kamihara walked with her through the school building and towards the school gate.

"It's your birthday in a few days."

"So what?" Tianhai Qi Mingyue raised her eyebrows.

"How so... I want to give you a gift. ”

Tianhai Qi Mingyue lowered her eyebrows and looked at the school gate in front of her again: "There are many people who want to give me gifts, and these gifts usually only have a trash can. ”

"The gift that my brother gave you should be taken seriously."

"Barely in the non-hazardous garbage column."

"What about the other people...?"

"Hazardous garbage, you will lose your appetite when you look at it."

Xiao Qi is still so venomous, and her face and answer are prickly and burried.

However, after getting along with Xiao Qi for a while, Kamihara can still understand what she means.

What she means is that she doesn't need a gift herself.

Or don't give her a gift, or she'll throw it in the trash can like garbage.

"How's that doll I gave you earlier?"

"Too inferior, hazardous garbage."

Poor little shark!

Unexpectedly, it actually fell into the hands of Qi Mingyue.

The two walked out of the school gate together and walked downhill along the ginkgo tree road.

There was a pile of ginkgo fruit on the road, and it was simply stinky.

Kamihara Le and Tianhai Qimingyue stopped under a traffic light street lamp together.

“... Thank you for these two days. Kamihara pulled the schoolbag with one hand.

Tianhai Qi Mingyue glanced at him sideways, and after returning to the right, he looked at the vehicles passing in front of him, and his tone seemed to be a lot calmer: "Aren't you still angry with me and my sister?" ”

"Angry is angry, you help me and you help me, I can still distinguish between the two things."

"Then what if I say that I found out about my sister's thoughts later and deliberately hid it from you?"

"Ahh I'm really uncomfortable," Kamihara said in a soothing tone, "But if you think about it, from your perspective on Qimingyue, you don't need to tell me at all... Of course, that doesn't mean I'm not angry, and if I weren't, I wouldn't have moved out all of a sudden. ”

I have always taken my feelings very seriously, and I suddenly moved out, not completely petty.

But I don't know how to face Jiuliuli.

Kamihara was sure that her feelings for her were true, but her intentions were wrong, and whether her feelings were real or not, she also deceived herself.

believed in her conflict with being unable to forgive her, so Kamihara chose to move out and calm down for a while.

"What if I deliberately agreed to my mother's request and tried to let my sister go abroad?"

Kamihara was visibly paused for a few seconds, and he figured out what was at stake during this time.

"Seven bright moons... You...... Do you really want Jiuliuli to go abroad? ”

"What does my brother think?"

......

Seven Bright Moon will definitely not be on Aunt Bertha's side.

She didn't have much of an interest in her aunt.

Qi Mingyue's actions like this will only accelerate the interruption of the relationship between herself and Jiu Liuli.

As for why Qi Mingyue did this...

Kamihara Le turned his head sideways, and then looked at the beautiful side face of the girl under the street lamp.

First, because she likes herself, she wants to break up herself and Jiuliuli.

Second, she ...... knew that Jiu Liuli was deceiving himself, and if he had kept the relationship with Jiu Liuli, he would break up after he had a deep affection for Jiu Liuli, and only after the feelings were deeper did he know that Jiu Liuli had been deceiving himself...

That would only be hard to suffocate.

According to Jiu Liuli's character, Jiu Liuli, who knows that she has been cheating on her brother, will always suffer from uncomfortable emotions, and she will be very uncomfortable if she is caught between her true feelings and the feelings that must be deceived.

Case... Why don't you cut through the mess with a quick knife?!

Yes, is that...

Is that so......

A sedan sped past the zebra crossing in front of it, bringing wind that blew the hair on Kamihara's forehead.

After thinking about this, Kamihara lowered his head and was silent for a long time, and then suddenly smiled and said, "I don't think there is any need to continue talking about this, everyone doesn't seem to be very happy when we talk." ”

"Thank you." Tianhai Qi Mingyue said softly.

"Say thank you for."

"Thank you for your tolerance."

Tianhai Qimingyue's thank you is quite jerky.

It's like helping her treat her ankle at the prom before.

"How can there be any tolerance, I haven't said that I want to forgive Jiuliuli."

"Brother knows, I'm not talking about sister."

She's saying, thank you for forgiving her.

But let's be honest... Qi Mingyue's small calculations are indeed uncomfortable, but the ultimate beneficiaries are himself and Jiu Liuli, according to that situation, if he and Jiu Liuli continue to walk, the situation will only become more distorted.

It's not a simple matter of moving out quietly.

It's really possible that I will go straight to Kyoto.

Kamihara took a deep breath of the cool night air, soothed the mood in his chest and said, "Can Qimingyue tell me why you like me?" ”

"Because you're so stupid, it's just right to foil me."

Kamihara laughed: "If you don't say it, you won't say it, why do you call me stupid." ”

"Because you're naïve."

Kamihara was not annoyed, and followed her across the zebra crossing to the opposite street. The metro station is just a short walk ahead.

"While you're still on the street, what do you want to eat?"

"You're in for a treat?"

"The second lady of the Tianhai family, the family has hundreds of millions of assets, and she can't afford to pay for food?"

"I'll barely think about it if you have a treat."

"Then there's no way, Miss Tianhai said so, then I can only reluctantly invite a guest." Kamihara happened to see a shiny Ichiran ramen in front of him, "How about you just go eat ramen?" ”

Tianhai Qi Mingyue sighed very naturally: "So your emotional intelligence is not high, if you invite girls to eat ramen outside, the impression score can be directly deducted from minus 10 for you." ”

Of course, Kamihara knew this unspoken rule.

Inviting girls to eat ramen and beef rice are two taboos when dating.

One is because most of the people inside are middle-aged male customers, and one woman goes in...... You can imagine the embarrassing scene of a woman sandwiched between a bunch of uncles. The second reason is that most of the ramen restaurants are not in a good environment, they are crowded, oily and hot, and the experience is not good.

Girls who are a little more sophisticated will not choose a ramen restaurant.

The two of them just walked to the door of the glittering ramen shop, and Kamihara made a gesture of "please".

This is still the etiquette given to him by Qi Mingyue at the tea party before.

"You think I'm afraid to go in?" Tianhai Qi Mingyue was carrying a small schoolbag and stopped, in addition to her height, the clothes on her body looked like a high school girl from a noble college.

"Please." Kamihara kept her gestures.

After glancing at him, Tianhai Qimingyue chose to walk in.

As soon as she entered, she found that she really didn't fit here, whether it was the atmosphere inside, or most of the office workers and uncles who had just come here after work to drink and eat.

Tianhai Qimingyue looked out of place standing here.

Kamihara Le took two noodle receipts and walked in, and directly grabbed the Seven Bright Moon of the Heavenly Sea that was not far away.

It just so happened that there was no one in the two double seats in the corner, and Kamihara Raku took her to sit here.

"You sit inside against the wall."

Tianhai Qi Mingyue didn't have any reason to refuse, she didn't like to come into contact with other people in the first place, and the location in the corner was undoubtedly the best for her.

Ichiran ramen is a typical counter-style seat.

One person in a small position, the waiter is busy in the kitchen in the center of the bar, and the noodles will be handed out behind the bamboo curtain when they are done.

The noodles were ready quickly.

The waiter enthusiastically said, "I've kept you waiting," and after presenting the noodles, he bowed 90 degrees behind the bamboo curtain and closed the curtain

The noodles are very fragrant, and the atmosphere of the surrounding uncles drinking and discussing after work is quite sufficient, but Kamihara Le can see the unnaturalness of the seven bright moons in the heavenly sea.

"First time at this kind of shop?"

"Hmm."

"It's really the second lady of the Tianhai family."

"It's not where you brought me yet." Tianhai Qimingyue seemed to be a little angry.

"But don't, I don't know who walked in first, and after coming in, I went to the machine to order noodles, you see how good I am, I know that you like to eat clear soup, and I ordered you more vegetables with ingredients, or ramen with clear soup."

Kamihara Le didn't have so many scruples, so he ate directly.

After hesitating for a while, Tianhai Qi Mingyue also ate quietly.

Kamihara finished eating a bowl, and then called the waiter inside to help add noodles. He ate two bowls in a row, and suddenly found that Tianhai Qi Mingyue was looking at him, only to realize that she had finished her share.

"Do you still want to eat?"

"No ......"

"Oh, that's good."

Kamihara was a little hungry today, and he ate four bowls in a row, of course, not because he ate a lot, but because this addition of noodles was too small, and it was a fixed amount, and there was no way, so he could only add it a few more times.

Tianhai Qi Mingyue has been watching him from the side.

"Do you want water?" Kamihara asked, wiping his mouth.

"I didn't eat enough." I don't know why, the sound is very small.

"Huh?" Kamihara laughed, "Didn't you stop eating?" ”

Tianhai Qi Mingyue looked at him, did not speak, and did not say anything.

Kamihara pointed to a small button behind the salt in her place, and said with a smile, "Press this, you can call someone over." ”

I pressed it for her.

"Alright, just wait."

The clerk came over quickly.

Tianhai Qi Mingyue bluntly asked for a noodle.

"No problem."

After the clerk left, Tianhai Qi Mingyue suddenly figured out why he deliberately shouted so loudly just now, as if he was angry and said calmly: "You did it on purpose? ”

"How can there be, you can call it directly, or you can press the button to call the waiter......" The more Kamihara Le laughed, the happier he became, until Tianhai Qi Mingyue coldly stretched out his hand on his waist, and the smile disappeared instantly, "Huh, don't don't, hiss~ Pain, pain, pain, ......"

When Shenyuan Le was almost enough, he was angry in his heart, but Tianhai Qimingyue, who had a flat face on his face, withdrew his hand.

"Why do you keep twisting the meat on people's waists?" Kamihara was bitter.

"Well deserved."

“...... You still eat noodles, and you should be quiet when you eat noodles. ”

"You have to take care of it."
