Love? Please allow me to simulate it first!

But in this case, the image of the other party that I had originally established in my mind as being in a proper position seems to be untenable now, but...

"So, I think I can still manage my time well with just half a day every weekend. At least it's more meaningful than staying at home lazing around, isn't it?" After saying this, Nakamura Mine felt his throat was a little dry, so he picked up the half glass of water that Nakano Azusa had handed to him on the table and drank it all.

"After saying so much, in the end..." Nakano's mother's tone was not as cold as it was at the beginning. At least she could now confirm that the Nakamura Mine in front of her was not just a gangster with some talent for piano. From his words just now, it seemed that the child was much more mature than his peers. After all, children of this age would either be timid or unconvinced by her sarcastic remarks just now, but Nakamura Mine was able to discuss things with her clearly.

Just for this reason, Nakamura Mine's score in her heart is much higher. However, after saying so much, the most important thing is...

"After saying so much, in the end, it all comes down to strength. Am I right, Aunt Nakano?" Nakamura Mine took the lead in expressing his thoughts on the law.

"Well... you're right. I have also played the piano for a long time, but I just can't spare the time to teach this child. So I hope to find a teacher for her whose level is at least not lower than mine. Do you understand?" After saying this, Nakano's mother stood up and motioned for Nakamura Mine to follow her.

Nakano Azusa felt helpless after hearing what her mother said. Her mother had excellent piano skills in the professional field. It was not easy to find a teacher of this level, not to mention that Nakamura Mine was just a student who had just entered high school.

Nakano Azusa first nodded apologetically to Nakamura Mine, and then followed her mother. She knew that her mother was going to take her to the piano room that was almost used as a study.

Nakamura Mine also hurriedly followed. He was already thinking about what kind of song he would play later. A simple show of skill like "Flight of the Bumblebee" would definitely not be appropriate in this situation. It would be somewhat provocative to the opponent. However, he was really undecided about what song to choose.

Arriving at the practice room, Nakamura Mine couldn't help but look around this place which might become his workplace in the future.

In addition to the white piano standing in the middle of the room, which is undoubtedly the protagonist, there are many bookshelves neatly arranged in this room. However, unlike the bookshelves in ordinary people's homes which are basically filled with classic novels, the bookshelves here are mostly related to music, including relevant theoretical books and countless neatly arranged music scores.

"Please sit down." Nakano's mother signaled to Nakamura Feng that he could sit in front of the piano and start his performance. However, after seeing the piano chair that was too high, Nakamura Feng immediately began to adjust the height of the chair. Seeing this, Nakano's mother nodded slightly. She deliberately did not remind him to adjust the chair just now, just to see if Nakamura Feng could notice it himself. If Nakamura Feng did not even have this awareness, then the score in her heart would definitely be lowered.

After adjusting to a suitable height, Nakamura Mine finally sat in front of the piano. Although the piano had not been used for a long time, it was at least still very clean without a trace of dust.

I didn’t expect that the second time I touched the piano would be during a job interview…

Even Nakamura himself found this funny.

"Let's start." Nakano's mother said calmly. She did not specify nor would she ask what song Nakamura Minato was going to play. No matter whether he was going to play the song he was most familiar with or the simplest song, she was confident that she could judge his true level. What she said before that she hoped he would at least have the same level as herself was actually a lie. She didn't expect a high school student to be on par with her.

Considering that she had a good impression of Nakamura Mine, she decided to keep him as long as his level could reach close to the professional level.

Nakamura Mine himself was indeed slow to take any action. He felt that his decision-making difficulty seemed to have recurred. You know, there were a lot of piano pieces in his mind, but it was precisely because of this that he didn't know how to choose.

Suddenly, a ringtone that didn't match the atmosphere rang out, and Nakamura Mine then remembered that he had forgotten to mute his phone. Fortunately, he hadn't started playing yet.

After apologizing to the Nakano mother and daughter, Nakamura Mine took out his cell phone and wanted to hang up.

"It's okay, you answer it first. It would be bad if something urgent happened." Nakano's mother rarely said something considerate.

Seeing that the other party said so, Nakamura Mine no longer hesitated. He nodded to the two of them and then turned his attention to the name he had noted on the caller ID - Pochi.

Chapter 108: Hero

"Hey?"

"Ah, is that Afeng?"

"..."

"You're making a private call, is it really necessary to confirm this?" Nakamura Mine said speechlessly.

"Oh, sorry." Goto Ichiri's embarrassed voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Hey, so, why are you calling me now?"

"Oh, right, it's bad, Afeng, Xiaozuo, Xiaoyou and the others..."

After Goto Ichiri's narration, Nakamura Mine roughly understood what had happened.

The thing is, almost every day when Nakamura Mine goes out, the animals in his house will discuss who will accompany Nakamura for the day, and today it happened to be the turn of the two squirrels that had been raised by Nakamura Mine and were getting fatter and fatter.

However, Nakamura Mine felt that the two of them were too much of a nuisance, so he stuffed them into the hands of Goto Ichiri while they were sleeping in his schoolbag on the train. Goto Ichiri herself was already very familiar with the two overly smart little guys, and this would allow her to have more companions in class, so she readily agreed.

Although the two squirrels were very dissatisfied when they found themselves in the hole of Goto Ichiri's desk, they became obedient after being tempted by the nuts that Goto Ichiri fed them. Goto Ichiri also told them that they would be able to see Nakamura Mine after school.

But the key point is that Nakamura Mine did not go to "STARRY" after school today, but went to interview a tutor, so the two little guys seemed to have made a big fuss in the lounge of Fanxing.

After listening to what Goto Ichiri said, the corners of Nakamura Mine's mouth twitched slightly. His expression, which had not been shaken by the sharp words of Nakano Azusa's mother, was now a little out of control. It was not difficult for him to imagine what kind of anger he would face from Ijichi Hoshika tomorrow, but before that, he would definitely let those two fat squirrels know what they had done!

After hanging up the phone, Nakamura Mine turned his phone to silent mode and reorganized his somewhat tense expression. After taking a deep breath, he sat up straight and placed his hands gently on the piano keys. It was an unexpected gain. After hearing Goto Ichiri's voice, he suddenly remembered what song he wanted to play.

When Nakamura Mine's fingers touched the piano keys, Nakano Azusa could clearly feel that Nakamura Mine's aura seemed to have undergone a change in an instant that she could not understand. If she had to describe it, it should be a qualitative change in concentration.

Even though the performance hadn't started yet, Nakano Azusa could no longer connect the focused boy in front of her with the liar. Her mother also felt the same way. Nakano's mother's expression became even more serious and solemn than before, and her eyes were fixed on Nakamura Mine's every move.

Nakamura Mine began to play. Following the rhythm of his fingers, the piano first produced soft and long notes, but soon the rhythm became more agile, brisk and even lively, like a waltz. But the next moment Nakamura Mine's eyes changed, and the movements of his hands suddenly accelerated, and the tone of the piano also changed dramatically in an instant.

In the last second, she seemed to be dancing freely in her own courtyard, and in the next second, she seemed to be sent to the battlefield with a terrifying and terrifying momentum. The notes created by her fingertips seemed to be a torrent that broke through the dam, vast and boundless.

"Heroic Symphony..." Nakano's mother gently uttered the name of the song played by Nakamura Mine in the air. At this moment, there was only shock in her eyes.

"Symphony No. 3 in E-flat major", also known as the "Heroic Symphony", is said to be a piece of music composed by Beethoven for Napoleon, but the credibility of this statement remains to be discussed.

However, Nakamura Mine himself didn't care about Napoleon, which had nothing to do with him. The reason why he chose this song was simply because he suddenly remembered Goto Ichiri's online name "Guitar Hero", that's all.

But the moment he started playing, his own figure appeared in his mind. The figure was vague like a mirage, and the face was blurry, but Nakamura Mine was very sure that it was himself.

But soon the figure flashed and the next moment two identical figures appeared.

One of the figures stretched out his hands and tightly grasped the neck of the other figure, and refused to let go no matter how the other figure struggled. Finally, the other figure could only drop his hands and lost his voice. At the moment before he lost control, Nakamura Mine seemed to see the other figure cast his last gaze on him. Nakamura Mine's heart skipped a beat and his eyes opened suddenly at this moment.

The first movement, "Death of a Hero", ends.

Nakamura's fingers did not pause at all.

The second movement is "Funeral".

Nakamura Mine's performance became gloomy, slow and solemn, as if he was elaborating on a tragedy that he had caused.

Gradually, the sound of the piano became fainter, as if the funeral procession was gradually moving away into the distance, and the air was filled with the sadness of bidding farewell to the "hero".

But for some reason, what Nakamura Mine felt in his heart at this moment was not sadness, but a sense of shame that others might find difficult to understand.

The third movement is "Truce at the Tomb".

The atmosphere created by the piano has undergone a huge change again, like a torrent rushing down in the valley, becoming passionate and full of vigor.

The rhythm of Nakamura Mine's hands also reached a climax at this moment. The unknown struggle in his eyes gradually faded away, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth like bamboo shoots after rain.

The final chapter is "Funeral Banquet and Hymns".

Nakamura Mine's fingers kept moving among the 88 keys of the piano, sometimes suddenly accelerating, sometimes stopping suddenly. Each variation seemed to be interpreting a completely different life, some of which experienced setbacks, while others were perfect and impeccable.

But interspersed throughout is a melody that changes with constant variations and becomes increasingly complete and broad.

Finally, with the last dance of his fingers, Nakamura Mine ended the performance.

For about ten seconds, the practice room became extremely quiet, and Nakamura Mine seemed to have not yet come to his senses from the performance and never stood up.

It was not until a not-too-abrupt round of applause rang out that Nakamura Mine slowly stood up and looked over.

The person clapping was Nakano Azusa's mother. At this moment, she was looking at Nakamura Mine with some complexity. Nakano Azusa seemed to have just woken up from a dream and followed her mother in front of her to applaud. Compared with her mother, there was more surprise and disbelief in her eyes.

Made some changes

In the past two days, I reshuffled the subsequent outline, mainly focusing on the proportion of simulation and reality.

The problem mainly lies with the previous free simulation. The reason I did the simulation in advance was mainly because many readers said that they almost forgot that this was a simulation article, so I started it in advance. But right after it was started, someone said why I was always simulating and it made me a little confused. Finally, as more and more people said so, I quickly stopped it.

In fact, I only wrote less than one-third of the content in that simulation. The original heroine was not Kotobuki Tsumugi but Yamada Ryo. There was also a plot about Pochi becoming a club cow, and many animal-related plots. However, because the chapter would be too long, they were all deleted. In fact, I wanted to delete the chapter directly, but unfortunately VIP chapters are not allowed to be deleted.

So I have been thinking about how to deal with this problem, and then I thought of an animation series I had watched before. It is not very popular and I don’t know how many of you have watched it. It is called "Heart Link" also known as "Love Random Link".

I thought of mapping its settings to the simulation, that is to say, synchronizing the simulation and reality. It can be said to be a rule of the game that cannot be violated. For example, if everyone briefly swaps bodies in reality, it would be quite interesting to let social cows like Dai Wei or Kita swap with Pochi.

After all, everyone has a very distinct personality, so this sudden change is very fresh. I even want to let Xiaozuo and Mio switch between shouting in black voices during the live show after class. It's exciting just thinking about it.

There is also the idea that some people are getting younger or something, especially those older single women who seem to be very young.

I also thought about simulating time travel to the past, especially the few hours after the band ended, there were still stories, except for Kita of course, but I thought if I just wrote about them briefly becoming children, then this might be a bit redundant.

The advantages of this change are that the problem of the ratio of reality and simulation will no longer exist, and the interaction between the ending band and the light music department will be higher. Otherwise, if you write about the school, you will definitely not be able to write about the ending band, and if you write about the ending band, the light music department can only be an audience at most. However, if the souls are exchanged in reality, the operability will be much higher.

that's all.

Chapter 109 Invitation

"Now...?" Yamada Ryo glanced at the Starry Hall, which had already started to pack up the tables and chairs in preparation for closing for the day. He tapped the table beside him with his fingers a few times and the corners of his mouth suddenly curved up.

"Well... speaking of which, a new fashionable coffee shop opened in Shimokitazawa recently, and the curry inside looks very good." Yamada Ryo said to the other end of the phone with obvious intentions.

"Huh? Employee meals? How can something like that be as delicious as the food someone else treats you to?" Although it was a phone call, Yamada Ryo still had an expression and tone that said, "You're so stupid. You don't even understand this?"

There was silence on the other end of the phone for about ten seconds, and finally, words of agreement were heard, as if giving up.

After hanging up the phone, Yamada Ryo seemed to be in a much better mood, and shouted to the store that had almost been cleaned up:

"Nijiya, Pochi, Kita, I have something else to do, so I'll leave today." Yamada Ryo waved to them.

"It's so early today." Ijichi Hongxia naturally would not stop anything. Today's work was basically finished. It was just that this was the first time that Yamada Ryo was in such a hurry to leave, so she felt a little strange.

"Well, I got some inspiration so I want to go back and make it quickly." Yamada Ryo lied slightly.

"Is that so? Then keep up the good work." Upon hearing this, Ijichi Hongxia cheered up her bassist with satisfaction.

"Ryo-senpai will surely be able to make a great song!"

"Please, please come on."

Kita Ikuyo and Goto Ichiri also cheered.

"Yeah." With the smile on his face even wider, Yamada Ryo picked up his schoolbag and left the Fanxing store.

After a few minutes, Kita Ikuyo suddenly said with a grim expression as if she realized something terrible:

"Ryo-senpai left so early, could he be going on a date with someone?!"

"Date? Ryo? No, no, she's not the kind of person who would be interested in that kind of thing, Kita-chan." Ijichi Nijina denied Kita Ikuyo's unrealistic idea without hesitation. Anyway, Ijichi Nijina simply couldn't imagine who Yamada Ryo would fall in love with or even date.

But Ryo-senpai is very pretty and the clothes she wears on holidays are very tasteful. It's not surprising that she has a boyfriend...

Goto Ichiri thought so in his heart.

"But Senior Ryo is usually the last one to leave. No! I want to follow you!" Kita Ikuyo had already imagined countless intimate scenes of Yamada Ryo and strangers in her mind, and she could no longer sit still.

"No, isn't it too late even if we go now? And didn't Ryo say that he suddenly got the inspiration? Don't you, Kita, believe what Ryo said?" Seeing that Kita Ikuyo seemed to really want to catch up, Ijichi Kouka quickly used her special move.

"Well~Okay, I believe you, senior..." As expected, Kita Ikuyo suddenly calmed down.

"Good boy, good boy~" Ijichi Hongxia touched the head of Kita Ikuyo, who seemed a little lost, to comfort her.

On the other side, in a room decorated very classically, a petite woman with long black hair was sitting at a black piano and playing. After she played the last note, a steady and powerful applause rang out.

The woman with long black hair tilted her head towards the direction where the applause came from.

"If you come, make some noise."

"I just don't want to disturb such an excellent performance." A middle-aged man, whose face had some wrinkles but was still as handsome as ever and looked even more manly, said as he walked to the side of the woman with long black hair, who was his wife.

"Excellent?" The woman with long black hair, Nakano Azusa's mother, did not seem to be happy at all because of being praised by her husband. Instead, she felt a little ironic in her heart.

Can this be called excellence...

"As for Xiao Zi's new piano teacher, I contacted an old friend..." Although Nakano Azusa's father, Nakano Rin, sensed the self-mockery in his wife's tone, he did not think much about it. After all, his wife was a very serious person who was never satisfied with her.

"No need." Nakano Azusa's mother, Nakano Himeko, had no intention of letting her husband finish his words and interrupted him directly.

"Ah?" Nakano Rin never expected his wife to say that suddenly, and looked over with some confusion.

"No need? But isn't it Himeko you said..."

"It's no longer necessary. Today's tutor has passed my interview." Nakano Himeko said in a calm tone, but even though she said it calmly, it was impossible for people who heard it to remain calm.

"What? Passed? Was it that high school student?" Nakano Rin said in an incredible voice. He himself did not look down on Nakamura Mine as a high school student, but his wife's previous firm attitude...

"Well, didn't you find the person? Why are you so surprised now?"

"But, Jizi, you didn't report your intention to let the other party pass when you went back, right?" Nakano Rin believed that he knew his wife very well, so he was very sure of his guess.

"That's right." Nakano Himeko admitted her husband's statement without hesitation, and then glanced at him before continuing:

"I wonder what you, as a father, are thinking about finding a teacher of the opposite sex who is only one year older than your adolescent daughter?" Nakano Himeko's dissatisfied voice was heard. Nakano Rin then understood why his wife had been so determined before, and he immediately touched the back of his head embarrassedly.

"I didn't think so much about it. I just wanted people of the same age to communicate better... um, hehe." As he was speaking, Nakano Rin was glared at by his wife and quickly changed the subject.

"So what made you change your mind?" Nakano Rin was very curious about this question. After all, even if he wanted to change the decision made by his stubborn wife, it was not an easy thing.

"......" However, Nakano Himeko was unable to answer this question. Perhaps she had the answer in her heart, but she did not intend to say it out.
