my old life

Chapter 2316 Siren-like Man
I used to hear from my second uncle that there is a kind of sea monster in the sea, which confuses passing sailors by singing and makes many people jump into the sea and die.

I can't remember if it was Requiem or Requiem, but I think Mike is like a siren, respectful and chilling at the same time!

Mike is intoxicated in his own world, one song ends and one starts slowly, and the melody of the music he plays is very familiar.

This is a piece by the piano prince Richard. It is very simple and peaceful. There is no gorgeous composition and complicated show-off skills, only simple and gentle tenderness.

Mike was immersed in the world of the piano, and I was listening quietly, as if I could walk into his inner world through the sound of the piano... because each piece is different!

I have heard Richard's piano music many times, when it was still a recorder tape, but the melody will never be forgotten.

It was one lonely night after another, it was one night of longing after another, it was one night of praying for peace after another, and it was also countless lonely and difficult nights.

People can erase everything, but they can never erase their growth experience, let alone their past memories.

One after another, the sound of the piano floats melodiously in the vast sea, making people immersed in the world of the sound of the piano and unable to extricate themselves. I seem to see a vague figure.

This figure seems to be standing in the crowd, but it looks lonely and helpless. The whole world seems to be gray and white.

Some people say that music has no language, but it is a universal language in the world. Music can express inner emotions and remind people of the past in their hearts.

Regardless of whether the past time was dark or sunny, everything was narrated in the sound of the piano... For some reason, I felt a little lonely behind Mike at this moment.

His body sometimes rises and falls with the sound of the piano, and his confused and intoxicated appearance is like enjoying a glass of fine wine alone in a quiet night, quietly savoring the taste brewed by time.

I smoked a cigarette and listened quietly. At this moment, I felt like I was in the center of the world, surrounded by dark sea water, making me feel like I was in a world without people.

When the last few notes ended, Mike felt so lonely, as if he was standing on the busy street, but he didn't feel a trace of concern and warmth.

This feeling is like when I was a child, I hid under the blanket and listened to tapes, accompanied me into every night, so that I no longer fear, wander, and feel the cold...

I didn't expect that after many years, I would hear the same feeling at sea, and I didn't expect that the piano music would come from Mike.

At this moment, I feel that Mike is not simply playing the piano, he seems to regard the piano as an old friend, he is telling that he is reminiscing, and he is announcing his inner secret to the whole night sky and sea!
Mike's fingers slid across the piano lightly, like the beginning of a ritual, his fingers gradually slowed down, as if every note was so precious.

I know this song is autumn whispers, the rhythm is slow and gentle, as if it is a recount after seeing an old friend, and it also seems to be talking to the ethereal valley alone.

At this moment, I felt that I was getting closer and closer to Mike. I seemed to be able to enter his inner world, but I still couldn't figure out what kind of person he was.

As the saying goes, once the wind and the moon are in the sky, the sky is forever, and life experiences are different.

I was very intoxicated when I listened to the last song, because it was dedicated to Alice, and every note revealed beauty, which is the taste of love.

I don't know why I can vaguely hear a little difference, but it was a beautiful love song, but it was a bit sad. I don't know if I heard it wrong.

In this world, mouths can lie, but feelings can't.

I heard nostalgia and reluctance in Mike's piano, as if he was telling his inner secrets, and also seemed to be venting the repressed feelings in his heart.

If my feelings are correct, it's impossible to figure out what kind of emotions someone with no emotions like Mike would have.

When everything was over, Mike gently covered the piano, every movement was so careful, as if caring for a precious treasure.

It was only when he turned around that he found me, and the momentary stagnation in his eyes couldn't fool me. Could it be that he was really intoxicated to such an extent?

"Remember you said that you also like the piano?" Mike sat down and took out a cigar, which he didn't open or give.

"like very much."

"Can you hear the tune?"

"Autumn Whispers, The Starry Sky and For Alice."

"Hawkeye, you are always so unexpected." After Mike finished speaking, he handed me the cigar in his hand, and he took out another cigar.

"Actually, that's all I know." I said embarrassedly, and when I lit the cigar, I felt that the whole world became pleasantly fragrant.

"You like Richard too?"

"I like it, I have spent countless days and nights with me." I answered truthfully, and this moment was a moment of relaxation from the bottom of my heart.

"at what time?"

"When I was not yet full-fledged."

As soon as the words came out, Mike glanced at me immediately, and there was a little panic in his eyes, as if he was afraid of being seen through.

I was quite surprised, did Mike also have an unusual childhood?

Once Buddha and the old monster taught me how to understand people's hearts, not only empathy, but also empathy. Only by understanding a person's feelings can one understand a person's inner world.

"What do you want from me?" Mike changed the subject directly, not giving me a chance to continue thinking about him.

"I want to talk about Prince Long."

"You'll see him soon, trust me."

"I believe it, but I need to tell you about his situation. I'm afraid it will be dangerous for us to go..."

I vaguely reminded Mike that because of the intrigues in the Jianghu world, anything could happen!
"You are different from them. You have your own thoughts." Mike said something without beginning or end, which made me a little confused.

"I don't quite understand." I asked curiously, feeling that Mike was very talkative tonight, talking more than usual.

"They're used to being told, they're used to not thinking for themselves, and that's the difference."

What Mike said was thought-provoking. Obviously, all the people who followed him didn't know if it was a reminder or a warning.

If Mike wanted me to be independent thinking, he was reminding me not to drift with the flow and lose my mind, let alone become a machine that only obeys people.

If Mike doesn't want me to think too much, that's a warning!
There can only be one core in a team, and to put it bluntly, there can only be one person who has the final say. This is the truth that one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers.

"May I ask, is everything ready?" I asked politely, and changed the subject quietly without knowing what he meant.

"I have notified my friend, and my friend will never live up to my entrustment." Mike's words were very casual, but they gave me a very clear meaning.

As long as Mike finds a helper, he can rest assured, at least he won't be caught by others. It's no joke to go to other people's territory to do things!

"If everything is arranged well, I'll be relieved. It's better to be careful in everything. I don't have any other intentions... It's just that I have been used to being cautious all these years."

I explained it quietly, letting him know that I was just worried and had no other intentions, let alone any thoughts of usurping power.

"Hawkeye, you are different from them! I never betray my friends, and my friends will never betray me."

Mike's words were particularly deep, and I figured it out after a little thought. He was giving me eye drops.

"Me too." I echoed. I never betrayed my friends, but I was always betrayed again and again.

"The [-] million that your enemy sent, I have already asked Jennifer to transfer it to your card, enjoy it."

"No need for this, really no need!" I immediately waved my hand to refuse, I can't bear this affection!
"I never make money from my friends, what's yours is yours... rest well tonight." Mike patted me on the shoulder, obviously ordering to evict me.

"Mike, I really can't take this money! This is not an excuse, I mean it!"

"Are you questioning my principles?" Mike changed his tone, and I knew I had been tricked!

"No, no, thank you!"

"You are welcome, because you are my friend!"

Mike looked at me with a smile, he was like a siren-like man with routines everywhere!
