When Lin Yi entered the villa, she saw another little girl who was practicing the piano seriously. She played nicely, but not as well as his uncle. And tonight I'm here to listen to the last piece of music his uncle played.

At this time, the little girl was still innocently approaching me, and while saying witty things, she winked at her uncle. His uncle reluctantly explained to her, which made the little girl let go of her curiosity and exploration of me a little. Then I started to concentrate on rehearsing for the evening show.

It wasn't until dusk fell that I stood in front of the window and saw Conan and Mori Kogoro and his party. It seems to me that this is also an important plot. But, in fact, these episodes will not have any impact on me and tonight's performance. They are just guests and spectators tonight, not the protagonists.

As soon as I went upstairs, I saw Lin Yi's Maori Kogoro and his party, but they were surprised to see me.

"Sister Lin Yi, why are you here?" Conan asked curiously.

"It was Haga who called me here, and he invited me to come and enjoy tonight's performance." It's not something that can't be answered.

After dealing with these guys in front of me, I found a corner by myself, flipped through the book, supported my cheek with one hand, and looked at the contents of the book with the other. It was as if a deep ditch had been drawn with the people in front of him. I heard the doubts of Kogoro and his party, the dissatisfaction of the people of the Shiraka, the consolation of Haga, and even Conan jumped up in front of me, trying to get my attention, but I didn't give them a single look.

Gradually, they seemed to have forgotten about me as a person, and they were talking about what happened thirty years ago, one after another, and it was not until the curse of the violin was mentioned that I looked up, not at the person, but at the instrument.

That piano has been around for more than 300 years and has gone through countless owners, and Hibisuke Haga is his current owner. That's right, although this piano is now in the house of musicians, but its owner is Hibisuke Haga. Three hundred years, the influence of countless musicians, enough for a piano to produce a trace of spirituality, but only a trace. It senses that the Shiraku family has a similar bloodline to Haga, so the Shiraku family can play it at home. But no one other than the owner is allowed to pull it up in public. So, every time a musician wants to take it out for a public performance, all sorts of things happen. This is probably the arrogant spiritual will of the musicians accumulated in that instrument.

I don't allow people I don't approve of to play bad tunes on the stage of which I'm proud.

This is probably the reason why this piano recognizes Haga as the owner.

Because just after Haga killed String Saburo and set fire to the house, I followed them into the annex, and in front of the skyrocketing fire, I saw Haga dousing himself with water, and before rushing into the fire to save Mrs. Ayane, he looked at me with real eyes and said with a smile: "I am this personality." "I don't allow my performance to be flawed.

I felt as if I had seen the young man I met twelve years ago when I was painting on the streets of Paris. On the surface, he is gentle and personable, but when he plays, he is extremely sincere and proud.

That month, I was painting in various locations in Paris, and he followed me, playing the violin next to me. Obviously there is little communication between us, and even my attitude towards him is extremely cold, even as if he is nothing, but he still follows me unrelentingly.

Even I didn't know which street in Paris I would be on the next day, but he was still able to find me. Even sometimes, when it was almost dark when he came to him, I still chose to play a song where I painted, even though I had ignored him and packed up and left.

It wasn't until the last day that I took the initiative to say the first thing to him, but I told him that I was leaving, don't follow me. He was silent for a long time, but he still said to me as gently and politely as he had seen it at first sight: "I see in you a soul similar to mine, the same loneliness, the same genius and pride. I'm with you like I'm with me in the past. However, it's still different, you don't need me, and you don't need companionship, at least not mine. ”

That's why I think that human beings are really strange creatures, always looking for their own shadows in others, but they are unwilling to face themselves.

In the end, I painted a picture of him as a reward for playing music for me these days, and although I didn't ask him to do it, I felt that his music was worth it.

There was no figure on the painting, but he smiled when he saw it, and he said that he saw the music flowing, he saw his soul flying, he saw... The happiness and warmth of hugging his family in the past was a dream he could never see again.

He said it was the best gift he had ever received since his parents died.

"If you like it." I said in a cold tone.

I packed my things and prepared to leave for my next trip.

His voice came from behind him again, and he said, "If we meet again, I want to play a song for you." ”

"If we can meet again, we can. In return, I will weave you another dream that you have been looking forward to. "I remember saying that.

As a result, the encounter did not materialize until ten years later.

He recognized me at a glance, but it took me a long time to find this strange young man from my memory.

The first thing I said when I saw me was, "Do the old promises still work?" ”

I nodded.

But this time, what he wanted was no longer a painting. He wanted a real dream, a dream in which he would sink in, never to wake up. He is more tired of this world than he was then, and he has no attachment to this world. Now he is only supported by the last bit of obsession.

He said that he wanted to exchange what he had played, the last song in the world, for a dream I had woven for him.

I don't know why he's so sure I can do it, just like I don't know why he chose to follow me all the time after only seeing him. That's why I think humans are amazing creatures.

But I agreed, even though the show would take a long time for me to see him end. Probably, the human soul will always arouse my curiosity.
