Chapter 928
928 Evil person
On the west side of the campus of Pu Lin University, the scenery was beautiful. Some of the houses and villas were hidden in a large garden made up of grass, sycamore trees, and fragrant root irises.
It was afternoon, and a group of students were sitting on the lawn, playing the wind guqin. The sun shone on the students ‘faces, and the smell of the grass was refreshing under the afternoon sun. Under the melodious rhythm of the accordion, the students’ laughter spread far with the wind.
A parrot flew over from the distance, and was flying in the air above the grass.
“What a carefree and wonderful time, Yingluo.”
On the second floor window of a villa with dark red walls and beige roof, the vice principal of common University and the Dean of the music school, Leopold and Timothy, were using his smoking pipe to lift a corner of the curtain. Looking at the students who were laughing and talking on the lawn outside, they let out a sigh. Besides sighing, Leopold and Timothy’s slightly greedy eyes also looked over the several beautiful figures with ponytails and vitality on the lawn. They swallowed their saliva secretly, After that, he rubbed his big belly which was almost against the window with one hand. His plaid shirt and brown suspenders looked especially hard against his big belly.
As he grew older, his body was no longer straight and his muscles were gradually covered with fat. His fingers could still play the piano, but he no longer had the vigor. Those young and beautiful female students and beautiful female teachers in school no longer belonged to him. The only things that belonged to him were those beautiful campus memories. Oh, and his son, who was his pride. Only in his son could he see the continuation of his youth, Xuxu.
The familiar piano melody came from behind. Leopold and Timothy put down the curtain, turned around, and came to Mikel who was playing the piano. Their faces became a little more serious, ” you are only familiar with this piece, but there are still some flaws. It is not perfect enough. If you want people to think that this piece was created by you, you have to integrate your soul into it and make it a part of your body. Only then can you move people. Look at the short-short-short-long-rhythmical opening at the beginning of the song. It’s like The Echo of Thunder, the cry of the soul, and more like the knocking of fate. You have to play it in a way that shocks people’s hearts, not just to leave an impression on people’s ears. The person who wrote this song is a genius, and you have to treat yourself as a genius, Yingluo.”
Mikel raised his head and mumbled, ” I think I’m good enough, Yingluo.
“No, my son, you’re not good enough!” Leopold shook his head and placed a hand heavily on Mikel’s shoulder. you were indeed good at the ball last night, but at the concert in the capital, there were music Masters like anbauster, Turalyon, and mi nuo, as well as the picky professors and music critics at the National Music Academy. Not a single flaw of yours can escape their ears. You have to make them feel that you can resonate with this piece during your performance. Do you understand? real music. I’ve already contacted the editor-in-chief of ‘the musician’ magazine, and they’ll send someone to do an interview with you next week to warm up for your concert in the capital. This is your destiny, and this song can make you famous, so you have to seize this opportunity,”
Mikel seemed to have mustered up his courage. father, I have a date in the afternoon.
Upon hearing this, Leopold’s gaze turned sharp and he pouted. is it the woman in the blue evening gown from last night? ”
“Yes, I am!” Mikel nodded, his expression a little awkward. she’s very charming. We’ve arranged to meet at the coffee shop this afternoon, Yingluo.
“Mikel, do you know under what circumstances the warbeasts trained by the Army will be eliminated?” Leopold suddenly asked.
Mikel shook his head in confusion.
“As long as the warbeasts in the Army mate more than three times in their lifetime, they will not be able to complete their evolution and carry out dangerous tasks. They will be eliminated in the end. The same goes for humans. Men should cherish the energy of their lives. Before a man really succeeds, he must put his energy into his career. Believe me, as long as you can succeed in this Beijing concert, you can have as many women like that in the future as you want, socialites of the capital. More Kasaya.”
Leopold was trying his best to teach his son a lesson when a voice suddenly rang in their ears.
well said. As a father, you are indeed very invested in your child. However, aren’t you afraid of being exposed for stealing other people’s work and claiming that it is your own? ”
This voice startled the two people in the music room. The father and son turned to look at the door and saw a black-haired and black-eyed man standing at the door. They were no stranger to this man. He was the summoner Xia Pingan who had made a big splash at the cocktail party last night.
However, why did Xia ping ‘an suddenly come here? why didn’t the servants come in to report? furthermore, how did Xia ping’ an know Yingluo?
The father and son’s expressions changed.
“Yingluo, what are you doing here? Who let you in?” Mikel stood up in anger. His face was slightly red as he glared at Xia ping ‘an.
to treat a gentleman, of course, we should treat him like a gentleman. To treat a thief, we should treat him like a thief. If I want to come here, I’m afraid not many people can stop me. Xia Pingan said with a smile.
“I’m going to call the police!” Mikel yelled.
“Sure, go ahead. I was just about to report to the police that someone stole my piano piece, Yingluo.”
Mikel! Leopold called out to his son. He took a deep breath and said, ” I want to talk to Mr. Xia alone. Go and rest for a while. Don’t let anyone disturb us.
Mikel left the piano room, and Xia ping ‘an walked in calmly. Other than the piano, there was also a coffee table and a sofa. Leopold invited Xia ping’ an to sit on the sofa.
“I know this might not be honest enough, but I spent a lot of money to buy that song!” As soon as the two of them sat down, Leopold told Xia Pingan directly.
“You bought it?”
yes, a few days ago, someone brought a voice-recording stone over, and this song was in it. He said that if I gave him 3000 Thales, he would give me the voice-recording stone! Leopold’s memory of Xia Pingan’s ability was still fresh in his mind. He knew that it was best to be honest in front of a powerful God’s chosen one. Moreover, he was also a little guilty about this matter.
Xia ping ‘an understood. It was probably that someone at the scene had recorded her performance with a phonograph that day.
The voice recording stone was a very special stone. In the hands of a Summoner, it could be used as a tool to collect sound with a little divine power. Then, as long as the voice recording stone was put on fire, the voice recording stone would produce the collected sound. Of course, this thing’s function was similar to a recorder, but it was not as good as a recorder because the voice recording stone had a time limit after recording. In a thunderstorm, the voice recording stone would become blank again and could not be used again. After burning it three or four times, the voice-retention stone would break and could not be used repeatedly.
Mr. Leopold, I don’t care where your song came from. As the original composer of that song, I’ll give you two choices. The first choice is for you to issue an apology in the newspaper, stating that the song was heard by you and not composed by your son. Then I’ll let bygones be bygones and this matter will end here. If you still want to use that song to fight for fame and fortune, then believe me, I can easily destroy your tricks and ruin your reputation! Xia Pingan said as he coldly looked at Leopold.
Leopold swallowed his saliva. I know that the song was not composed by us, but how can Mr. Xia prove that the song was composed by you? ”
Xia Pingan smiled. Without saying anything, he went to the piano and sat down. He began to play the opening of the second movement of Symphony of Fate. When the music started, Leopold was instantly stunned and excited. With his understanding of music, he immediately knew that what Xia Pingan had just played was the follow-up part of his son’s performance. That was the second movement. The two were one and the same.
Xia Pingan only played the first part of the second movement, which Leopold was looking forward to. He stopped and did not continue. this song is called fate. This is the second movement of the song. The first movement is the knocking of fate, and the second movement is the brutal fate.
Finally, it showed itself. It was dark and endless, repeating each key, looking for an opportunity and peeking for a gap to break into people’s lives and dominate everything. The third movement is about the repeated struggle and spread of fate, and the last movement is about the glorious triumph over fate. Do you still need me to prove it?”
Leopold finally shook his head, hesitating for a moment. I’d like to know, what’s the second option you’re giving us, Mr. Xia? ”
as for the second option, you can buy the entire song from me and say that it was composed by your son. I will give you the second, third, and fourth movements of the song and will not expose you. You can use this song to do whatever you want.”
“Ah?” Leopold’s face was filled with excitement. He took a deep breath and asked, ” why are you doing this, Mr. Xia? what are your conditions? ”
I’m a God’s chosen one, and I’m not interested in becoming a musician. What I’m interested in is the realm beads, so my condition is also the realm beads. As long as you give me four realm beads, the complete four movements of fate will be yours. It should be a good deal for you! Xia Pingan said with a smile.
