Chapter 404 There Is a Problem
When Huaishi changed her clothes and walked out of the bedroom, the old man in charge of the concert hall looked puzzled: "Are you going to go out like this?"
"Um?"
Huai Shi was confused and looked down at herself.
A low-key, simple and defensive gray iron windbreaker, a pair of solid and durable overalls that have been treated with alchemy, a pair of boots that can be used for high-intensity running over mountains and ridges, and various equipment such as the Sword of Virtue. A magical shoulder bag that can also be used in emergencies.
He is simply armed to the teeth, enough to deal with any trouble.
Flawless!
"Any questions?"
"..."
The old man's expression suddenly became complicated, and he put down the towel in his hand and said, "Please wait a moment."
Within a few minutes, he came out of the warehouse with a whole set of brand new dresses in a storage bag. He also chose a pair of leather shoes, a shirt, a tie and a pocket square for Huai Shi.
After putting it down, he looked at the young man in front of him again and asked, "I wonder if you have the habit of using tie clips?"
"Uh, no need for that, right?"
Huai Shi was hesitant to accept this kind offer, then waved her hand and said, "To be honest, I'm very satisfied if I can live here for free. I don't have any need for other things."
"But these are all within the scope of membership services." The old man asked doubtfully, and then suddenly realized: "If you don't think these cannot match your identity, I can contact the tailor shop later to provide you with exclusive customized services."
"No, no, no, I just think that unilateral request is not a normal relationship." Huai Shi waved her hand and said seriously: "If I can pay, I will feel much better."
The old man was silent for a moment
"I see the problem."
He suddenly laughed and asked seriously: "You are now a very successful ascendant and have achieved fame. But, would you consider giving up investing time and love in music?"
Huai Shi shook his head naturally.
"Then music will never give up on you."
The old man put the dress into his hands and said seriously: "This hospitality comes from your sincere love for art, no matter what else.
This is a small tribute to your passion for art. You are well-deserved and deserve this honor. "
As he said that, the old man representing the Hell United Music Association touched his chest and saluted, and said calmly: "Unless you abandon all this one day, we will not leave you."
Huai Shi was silent for a long time and couldn't help but laugh: "Is this a blessing or a curse of art?"
"It's just a trivial hospitality."
The old man took a step back and left respectfully.
Huai Shi turned around and looked at the low-key and solemn dress on the table. After a long time, she couldn't help but shrug and put on new clothes.
Looked in the mirror.
So the handsome young man in the dress grinned at him and smiled.
It looks presentable and pleasant.
"Awaited."
Huai Shi opened the door of the lounge and nodded to the girl inside: "Miss Yuan, can we set off?"
When Yuan Yuan raised his head and saw the brand-new Huai Shi in front of him, he was stunned for a moment and did not react before the standard business smile passed down by Lao Liu.
It took a long time before I noticed my absence.
"Just call me Yuanyuan."
She said politely, hiding some fleeting emotion.
Just as he was leaving the house, Huai Shi heard a small sound coming from behind him again.
This time...it seems to be a little closer.
"Where's the original photo?" He asked casually, "Didn't he come?"
"I seemed to have stayed up late playing games last night, and then suddenly caught a cold. Now I'm lying in the hotel sleeping." Yuan Yuan shook his head regretfully: "No matter how hard I scream, I don't want to get up."
"Is it?"
Huai Shi nodded casually, and her heart sank slightly as she recalled the several phone calls she had just made to Yuan Zhao that had not been answered at all.
But at the same time, although he didn't know what Yuan Yuan was planning, he actually started to look forward to it.
——What else will greet me outside?
Today's Stars seems to be different from yesterday.
It was the same lively and noisy scene, but there were some more indifferent train policemen dressed in black on the streets. They did not hide their alertness, and their cold eyes swept over the faces of each passenger.
There are also a lot of security and scanning equipment. Under the cameras everywhere, the originally happy and relaxed travelers can't help but become depressed.
"What's wrong?" Huai Shi looked at those people doubtfully.
"It must have happened last night."
Beside him, Yuan Yuan said: "I heard that many people had nightmares last night, which seemed to be some kind of curse. Even the management of the train was not spared. Did Mr. Huaishi rest well?"
"I slept very well. I didn't have any dreams. It was dawn as soon as I opened my eyes."
Huai Shi replied: "Maybe it's because I bought the dream catcher during the day yesterday. No nightmares bothered me. Where are you, Miss Yuan Yuan?"
"I didn't get much sleep."
Yuan Yuan shook his head: "I always don't sleep well outside. It's almost morning and I just slept lightly for a while - if it's convenient, we will buy two more Dream Catchers later. I hope it will be effective."
"Okay, but I can't remember where the stall was yesterday. Let's see if we have luck." Huai Shi asked considerately, "Do you need to find a place to rest for a while first?"
"No need, let's go."
Yuan Yuan quickened his pace and led the way.
The place we went to was not far, it was only one floor above a quite busy street. Outside the quaintly decorated store, there was already a store manager waiting in front.
"Welcome again, Miss Yuan."
The manager nodded and smiled politely: "The violins you named were just delivered to the store yesterday. Do you want to see them now?"
"Of course, it's troublesome."
Yuan Yuan nodded and walked into the store behind the door.
The moment she stepped into the store door, Huai Shi felt several eyes looking at her vaguely. When he looked around, the people dressed as shop assistants quickly looked away.
I don’t know if I have made preparations in advance or if I really plan to buy a piano.
Soon, after serving black tea and asking them to wait for a while, three piano cases were brought up between aluminum alloy iron boxes and sponges.
Just the three exquisite piano cases in the iron box show that they are expensive.
Moreover, it also contains faint fluctuations of the essence, which is obviously the hard work and will put into it when the violin maker carefully crafted it. Even without opening it, Huaishi can feel that it is a rare and famous product.
After opening the piano case, the manager began to enthusiastically introduce the origin and history of the three violins. One of the oldest violins can be traced back hundreds of years.
After such a long time, there is still no damage visible, and it becomes even more precious under the careful care.
After the manager finished the introduction, Huai Shi asked curiously.
"Generally speaking, shouldn't there be a violinist stationed in your store to provide advice to customers at any time? Why don't you see that?"
The manager's smile stiffened for a moment, and his pupils moved slightly, as if he wanted to look somewhere. Xuan even restrained himself and showed an apologetic look: "Due to physical reasons, the piano master will not be able to come to the store to provide services to the guests for the past two days. We apologize for the inconvenience caused to you."
"It's okay, you won't necessarily be better than me anyway."
Huai Shi waved his hand calmly, which made the manager's expression twitch. I don't know if he admired Huai Shi's face, or was curious about where the fool came from, and his self-confidence was so inflated.
In fact, there is no need to choose.
The three pianos are all rare and good, and the timbres are not very different. Although the prices are also very beautiful, it is not a problem at all for the wealthy original family.
The only difference is simply the appropriate playing style.
This is also not important for beginners.
Those who first learn must go through the most rigid, rigorous and detailed training in order to lay a solid foundation, and only after three or four years of hard practice can they develop such a thing as a playing style.
Talking about this with a newbie is like talking to an elementary school student about choosing a college major.
Huai Shi pointed at the one that looked the best and suggested to Yuan Yuan, "You can give this one a try."
The girl picked up the piano as instructed, paused for a moment, and played a piece of the "Small Concerto" quite skillfully. The performance of this section is flawless and obviously quite skillful.
After the short performance, she turned back to Huai Shi and asked for his opinion.
"It's pretty good. Although I haven't played the violin much, I can tell that your tone is very good and your basic skills are very good..."
Huai Shi randomly picked a few minor problems and talked about them. Yuan Yuan lowered his head and checked again. This time it seemed to be better.
The understanding is quite good.
But the vibrato is always a bit off.
Huai Shi stood behind her and corrected some omissions in her performance. Unknowingly, the two of them were so close that they could almost feel her warmth.
Just when Huaishi was about to reach out and correct her fingering, she heard a voice behind her.
"Excuse me, can you guys show us your ID?"
Two patrolling guards walked into the store, breaking the original atmosphere.
Huaishi took a step back and saw that the store clerks had gathered here at some point, as if they were watching. In the reflection of the cabinet glass, Yuan Yuan's smile flashed with a hint of gloom, but it quickly subsided.
"no problem."
Huai Shi handed over the certificate and let them check it.
When they saw the Astronomical Society's logo on Inspector Huaishi's ID, the two patrolling guards were stunned for a moment, took it with both hands respectfully, and returned it after verifying it.
Soon they left.
Yuan Yuan picked up the violin again, ready to say something, but heard Huai Shi's voice.
"Sorry, I went out to smoke."
He pushed the door open directly and walked out.
There is definitely something wrong.
In the alley next to the pedestrian street, Huai Shi leaned against the wall of the carriage, lowered his head and lit the cigarette in the corner of his mouth, recalling everything just now.
What would have happened if the guard hadn't pushed the door open and barged in?
He narrowed his eyes in thought.
A voice came from the side: "Can I borrow a fire?"
"OK."
Huaishi subconsciously handed over the lighter, but the other person didn't take it. After Huai Shi looked up, he realized what he was doing and his eyes widened.
"Why are you here?"
