Classic soul swap, but a musical

"Ah."

He frowned slightly, as he was not used to wearing high heels, and Mu usually didn't wear them, which made it even more uncomfortable.

"Change to a new pair."

"But this is what Ms. Mori asked for." The girl in charge of clothing was a little embarrassed.

"Change your pair and I'll explain."

"Yes."

It will be much more comfortable if you change into flat shoes.

Ai Aragaki looked for the lounge and spoke harmoniously in the room alone.

"Next time you feel uncomfortable, just tell me directly."

"Oh."

"Do you understand?"

"Ah."

He rubbed his head and felt that next time Mu was forced to wear it, he would still choose to listen to his mother's arrangements.

"Ai...Saki didn't come today."

"Huh?" Aragaki Ai was stunned.

I wanted to continue discussing this matter in peace, but Mori Minami pushed the door open and glanced at Aragaki Ai's new shoes. They matched her evening dress, except that they were now flat shoes with only a little heel.

This matter is not important.

Mori Minami sat across from him and spoke to her in a serious tone.

"Today's program is very important. All of Japan's top pianists are here, including some who are not much older than you. You'll be asked to play the piano, so you need to perform at your best."

Aragaki Ai nodded.

"What these people say about you largely determines how others will follow suit and comment on you."

Mori Minami folded her arms across her chest, looked directly into her eyes, and spoke in a calm tone.

"Everyone's performance segments have been arranged. I requested the last seat for you."

Finally.

The position that is most likely to attract attention and leave the most impression, almost every detail will be compared with the person in front. If you play well, you will get applause from the audience, but if you play badly, you will definitely be criticized.

Aragaki Ai's technique is the same as Mu's. The only thing that makes her better than Mu is that she can play all the pieces with emotion, while Mu can only play those few pieces with emotion.

Mori Minami looked at her "daughter" in a daze, having become accustomed to her like this, and continued.

"The pieces played were Liszt's Dream of Love and Chopin's Farewell."

"......"

They are all songs that are quite difficult and Mu can play them, but he cannot express any emotion at all.

PS Thank you for your votes, blades, and the spicy strips of Long March 4 Yi Yao 48

Volume 1: On the shelves?

Thank you to everyone who has been with me all the way, thank you for watching, voting, and giving me props, and thank you to my editor, Brother Suanzi, for his help.

This month was definitely the most difficult month in my book-writing career. I revised the manuscript over and over again every day, and often had to write two or three versions before I could select one to publish.

This resulted in all of my initial drafts being used up, with nothing left, so I had to try my best to see how much I could write today.

I beg you all to continue walking with me.

Volume 1: Chapter 59: Lie to Me Again (Please Order First)

Minami Mori straightened her back, turned her legs inward, and looked at "Wakaba Mutsu", which was completely different from the feeling at home, so she confirmed with him again.

“Is there something wrong with these two pieces of music?”

"No."

Aragaki Ai played these two songs quite well, and the emotions were quite on point. If it were Mutsu, it would definitely not work.

"Then you should prepare a little. The show will start filming in twenty minutes."

"I see."

After saying that, Mori Minami left the room, leaving Aragaki Ai with a little bit of time for the last time.

He looked at the game system. If he could get the eighth-level piano experience card, he would definitely be able to rest easy. But the problem was that he was thirty points short of one thousand.

Then you can only rely on your own strength. Aragaki Ai feels that as long as she is there, there should be no problem.

Level eight, which is about the same as those top Japanese pianists. Level six is ​​the professional level. Ai Aragaki estimates that the maximum level should be level nine or level ten. He has not seen anyone above level seven so far, so it is difficult to make a reasonable judgment.

Taking advantage of this time, he simply went out for a walk to see who were the people performing on the same stage with him, including the pianists.

Not long after he went out, he saw those pianists sitting together and chatting, including the female pianist who taught Mu piano. He randomly took a look at one of them and found that the other person's piano level was only level eight.

At this time, the cell phone kept vibrating and buzzing, attracting his attention.

Ai Aragaki lowered her head and raised her wrist. The screen lit up and she saw the name on the phone - Xiangzi.

Thinking of what Mu said, he quickly returned to the lounge, closed the door, and only answered the phone after confirming that he was the only one there.

A familiar voice came from the other end, but I don’t know if it was an illusion, but I always felt a sense of loss and fear, as if I was trembling.

"Xiao Mu..."

Then some very chaotic noises could be heard, as if something was smashed, and there seemed to be sounds of fighting, followed by a "bang".

There was silence for a long time on the other end of the phone, followed by a gasp and another question.

"Mu."

"It's me, what's wrong." Aragaki Ai was very calm. She didn't expect it to come so soon, but it was ultimately within her expectations.

There was no sound from the other side again.

After a while, Xiangzi's familiar and pleasant voice appeared on the phone again, slightly distorted by the influence of electromagnetic waves.

She realized it was Ai who answered the phone, "It's you... OK, please listen to me next."

This time it was not an illusion, there was a very obvious feeling of choking and intermittentness.

There was a brief pause and a gasp.

The air in the lounge was eerily quiet, and the sound coming from the mobile phone microphone became clearer.

"Please... lie to me again."

Lian Mu could hear her crying, and Xiangzi realized the next second that she held her breath and made no more sound.

He deliberately asked in a relaxed tone, "Okay, Xiaoxiang, how do you want me to lie to you?"

Didn't I lie to you and nothing happened?

I really can't do this.

There was no sound on the other end of the phone again. Aragaki Ai's brows furrowed deeper and deeper. He noticed that Xiangzi seemed to be adjusting her mood. She didn't allow herself to cry in front of others. After a while, her voice returned to calm.

"Just tell me your name, as always."

Aragaki Ai paused for a moment, because they had an agreement that he would not reveal his name casually.

However, Xiao Mutou took the initiative to speak.

"Love...ok."

Aragaki Ai nodded, pretended to smile, and said in a frivolous voice, "Maybe I'm lying to you... Will you believe me? Ai, you can call me Ai."

“…Well, I believe you.”

The voice seemed to be getting farther and farther away, and it felt like the other party was about to hang up, so Aragaki Ai hurriedly asked her.

"Saki! Where are you now?"

But it was still too late. Xiangzi heard it, but hung up the phone directly.

Ai Xinyuan stared at the hung up phone, her brows were almost twisted together, and her body was shaking slightly. Then she thought that this was Xiao Mutou's body, so she inhaled the turbid air into her throat, emptied her lungs, and took two deep breaths to calm herself down.

"like....."

"It's okay, don't panic."

I don’t know whether he was saying this to Xiao Mutou or to himself.

First, he had to find Xiangzi's location. He called Xiangzi again, but the call was connected before he hung up.

I tried again and simply didn't answer.

He was sitting on the sofa in the lounge when a notification popped up in the game, which startled Ai Aragaki.

【new task】

[Find Toyokawa Shoko: 1,000 points]

Even if there was no such task, Aragaki Ai was planning to go find her. He couldn't just leave Xiangzi alone.

The phone was hung up again.

So, there are channels to get the news.

He left the lounge and went to look for Mori Minami, but she was talking and didn't give him a chance.

The girl with long light green hair kept looking at her. After a few minutes, the person who was talking to her noticed Aragaki Ai's gaze and the conversation was forced to stop. The other party pointed behind her. Mori Minami turned her head and saw her "daughter". She walked up to Aragaki Ai with a roll of paper and asked.

"what's up?"

"Has something happened to the Toyokawa family?" Aragaki Ai asked directly without even trying to cover up.

"nothing dealing with you."

Minami Mori's tone was stiff, with resistance between her brows, her hands folded in front of her chest, her body leaning back.

"You want to ask the child from the Toyokawa family, right? Did she tell you?"

"She didn't say anything." Aragaki Ai appeared indifferent, but her expression showed that she was extremely anxious.

Nothing was said in the animation, and he had no idea what had happened. He only knew one thing, that is, Xiangzi was in need of someone now.

He wanted to find Xiangzi.

But therein lies the problem. Mu definitely needs him, but Xiangzi may not want him to come to her. Her personality will never allow him to see her being so weak. If his emotions are not right, things might get worse.

Besides, if Mori Minami didn't plan to say anything, he might not be able to find Xiangzi.

Can you just give up like this?

When the problems of Mu and Xiangzi are piled up together, do we have to make a choice?

Ai Aragaki stared into Minami Mori's eyes, and the two of them continued to look at each other for more than ten seconds, neither of them looking away.

The woman had never felt her "daughter" so strange. After these confrontations, she could occasionally see her obedient daughter, but more often...

"So, it has nothing to do with you. Just wait for ten minutes or so. The show is about to start."

"At least tell me what happened."

Seeing that Aragaki Ai was determined to answer, Mori Minami sighed, closed her eyes, and placed the paper that was held in a U shape on her shoulders.

"It's just a small matter. Don't let it put you off."

"I want to know Xiangzi's current situation." His tone was still calm and he didn't seem anxious.

"So what if you know? The show is about to start and you can't go anywhere." She said sternly.
