The name is indeed worthy of its name.

After the song was over, the two people who were walking stopped.

The two raised their eyes and looked at the figure around the corner in surprise.

Naoko Hayakawa, who was holding an umbrella, widened her eyes and looked at Watanabe Yu in shock, as if she was looking at a monster.

This chapter cannot be separated, so I'll post them together.

Chapter 32 Recognition

Before this, Naoko Hayakawa always thought that Watanabe Yu was simply interested in music, just like other high school students, who just thought playing music was cool.

As for what his voice would sound like or how good his singing skills would be, she had never made any specific ideas.

Of course, she also asked him indirectly if he had ever studied music before. He said no, and only said that he would occasionally go to karaoke for fun.

It was based on this answer that she specially worked out a teaching plan tailored for him, preparing to train him in a purely new way.

But now, the development of the situation has far exceeded her expectations.

What Watanabe Yuu meant by "having fun" and what she understood as "having fun" were two completely different concepts.

Although his singing skills were still relatively immature in her eyes, and some of his transitions and details were not good enough, the problem was that she was judging him based on the strict standards of an industry insider.

There is a world of difference between an amateur and an expert, but only one word makes a world of difference.

Unfortunately, she didn't finish listening to the song he sang, and only heard the last little part, but she could assure her that it was definitely a good song.

"Aunt Hayakawa? What are you doing?"

Watanabe Yu looked at Hayakawa Naoko in front of him and had some guesses in his mind.

She was holding an umbrella in her hand and another in her free hand, and she looked anxious as if she was in a hurry.

I think she thought Hayakawa Yuki didn't bring an umbrella, so she hurried over with the umbrella.

"Oh, I thought Yuki didn't bring an umbrella."

Hearing this, Naoko Hayakawa withdrew her gaze, nodded slightly towards Watanabe Yu apologetically, and turned to look at Hayakawa Yuki.

"I sent her a message and called her before, but she didn't reply, so..."

Naoko Hayakawa sighed softly, but the expression on her face relaxed.

After school, she called Yuki at least twice and sent five messages, but she didn't receive a single reply.

Seeing that the rain was getting heavier and there was no sign of stopping, she hurriedly closed the flower shop, picked up two umbrellas, and rushed into the rain.

However, this is also good.

Yuki was not caught in the rain.

Her goal was achieved.

"Mom, I brought an umbrella this morning." Hayakawa Yuki lowered her eyebrows and explained apologetically, "My phone was on silent mode, so I didn't hear it. I'm sorry."

Her habit is to change her phone from silent to ring mode only after she gets home.

"Better a wasted trip than the possibility of getting caught in the rain."

Naoko Hayakawa smiled gently and nonchalantly, then reached out and rubbed her daughter's head.

"The memories of holding an umbrella together and walking home on a rainy day are much more precious than a wasted trip."

Watanabe Yu added this sentence at the right time.

"Yes."

Naoko Hayakawa withdrew her hand and nodded in agreement. Then her eyes fell on Watanabe Yuu's face and she changed the subject and asked the question she hadn't had time to ask just now, "Watanabe, what's the name of the song you sang just now?"

"The name of the song is Sea of ​​Flowers."

"Sea of ​​flowers?"

Naoko Hayakawa chewed over the song title, a look of thought flashing across her eyes. There was no similar song in her memory. At most there were similar tracks in minor keys, but the emotions and feelings were very different.

"You wrote it?"

"I copied it to make a living."

"Then can you copy a few more poems to give full play to your talent?"

Naoko Hayakawa couldn't help but smile.

"I'll take it as a compliment."

"But I still have to say that the melody of this song is great! Your singing skills are also quite good."

Naoko Hayakawa raised her eyes and asked the question in her heart.

"Watanabe, have you really never learned vocal music systematically before?

Theoretically speaking, it is very difficult to reach this level without anyone teaching you and relying entirely on self-study.

Because many vocal techniques are easy to learn incorrectly, once they are wrong, it takes more effort to correct them.

"I have learned a little by myself, but it may not be very standard. I will need Aunt Hayakawa's guidance in the future."

Watanabe Yu passed the conversation to Hayakawa Naoko.

He couldn't say that it was all thanks to Brother Tongzi's teaching that he suddenly became like 'Oh, this damn muscle memory'.

"Then you have to come too." Hayakawa Naoko shook her head, half-jokingly and half-seriously teasing him, "How can I give you advice if you don't even come?"

To be honest, she was quite looking forward to it.

After all, she hasn't taught students seriously for a long time.

"I'm going to bother you this weekend, so don't think I'm stupid then."

Watanabe Yu took the opportunity to continue the conversation.

"No, I'll call you then."

Naoko Hayakawa gave a kind smile.

Yuki Hayakawa, who knew her character well, shuddered subconsciously.

That's it!

She is so familiar!

When her mother taught her, she also smiled so kindly.

result……

Her throat moved.

In short, her mother's change of expression at that time could be said to have taught her a good lesson.

Such a gentle person in life, but when it comes to music, he seems like a different person, with a serious expression and strict demands.

And this is just the most superficial description.

"okay."

Watanabe You responded without noticing the slight expression of Hayakawa Yuki beside him.

"Then I'll leave first?"

He tendered his leave.

Since his mother has come to pick him up, there is no need for him to stay any longer. It would be best for him to go home early.

"Why don't you come sit at our house for a while?"

Naoko Hayakawa extended the invitation sincerely.

Their home is only seven minutes away.

"Let's do it another day. I have a lot of housework to do at home today, so I have to go back early."

Watanabe Yu shook his head and declined her invitation.

"Okay, next time then."

"See you."

"Goodbye."

*

After turning the corner, the mother and daughter started on their way home.

"Yuki, can you tell me how you felt after listening to that song?"

After walking for a distance, it was Naoko Hayakawa who took the initiative to start a conversation.

She felt like a cat was scratching her heart, making it extremely itchy.

She hadn't heard such an eye-opening song for a long time.

Unfortunately, she arrived at an inopportune time, neither too late nor too early, and in the end, she only heard the last part of the a cappella singing.

"Hmm..." Yuki Hayakawa thought for a moment and honestly expressed her thoughts, "I think the melody is good, but as for the lyrics, well, I personally think they're weird.

“It’s like it was changed intentionally and it’s not the original lyrics.

“When he sang, I was a little uncomfortable at first.

“Then there’s the vocal condition!

"To be honest, I envy his voice! It's very recognizable, and once he opens his mouth, he can grab people's attention!"

If he became famous, no matter what he sang, his fans would be able to tell it was him just by listening to one or two lines.

As a student who has received professional training from Hayakawa Naoko, she is well aware of how rare it is to have a singer with such a good vocal condition.

"Um……"

Naoko Hayakawa slowed down her pace and nodded thoughtfully.

When Watanabe Yuu comes to study on weekends, she can just ask him directly.

Let’s see if there is any unmodified version of the song Sea of ​​Flowers.

If so, ask him to sing it again, so that you can verify your daughter's judgment.

but!

Before that, there is one more important thing to do.

"Yuki, if I remember correctly, the results should be out today, right?"

Naoko Hayakawa slowed down her pace, turned around, and her eyes fell on her daughter's face.

She didn't finish her words, but she knew that Yuki must understand what she meant.

"Not ideal."

Yuki Hayakawa lowered her head and answered weakly.

"...Okay, let's try harder later!"

Hayakawa Naoko was silent for a moment, but didn't blame her. Then she asked, "What about Watanabe?"

"Him? Grade 76."

Yuki Hayakawa's voice became smaller and smaller.

People are afraid of comparison.

"You guys are sitting next to each other, right?"

Hayakawa Naoko mentioned this.

"Yes."

pat pat pat.

The raindrops hit the open umbrellas, making a dense sound. At this moment, the street seemed to suddenly become quiet.
