Just like her life in the past ten years.

Touma Kazusa closed her eyes, quietly letting the music flow into her heart.

She did not forget the redemptive words of the other party, and such a serious sound of the piano also showed that the girl was not just talking.

But this is not enough, there is no way to cross that layer of peaks only with such laymen's techniques.

She waited quietly for that part to come.

Finally, Yukinoshita Yukino arrived there——

Then the music continued without the slightest delay.

"What——" Dongma Hesha opened his eyes in surprise, and then showed a very strange expression, as if he saw a rabbit seriously looking at his pocket watch.

It was reasonable for her to feel weird, because the note that Yukinoshita Yukino made after pressing the keys did not match the sound she thought it should make.

This is Yuan Jing's strategy, and it is also the key to his confidence that Yukinoshita Yukino can finish playing this piece, which is called——

'Change a layer of keys'.

As I said before, the electronic piano or electronic synthesizer assembled by Yuanjing is double-layered.This is not uncommon.

Compared with the single-layer electronic organ, the sound range of the double-layer electronic organ is wider, which can meet the higher requirements of the player.

But Yuanjing's piece doesn't need two layers, and when Touma and Sasa played, they didn't touch a key on the other layer—because as long as they touched it, it meant that they played it wrong.

This is what Touma Kazusa's common sense of music told her.

But at this moment, Yukinoshita Yukino's fingers were flying on another layer of keys, and the notes it produced completely violated Touma Kazusa's common sense. The right side of Do must be Re, and the right side must be Mi.This is known to almost anyone who knows something about the piano, but——

A keyboard is not a piano.

It does not produce sound by hitting the strings with keys, it relies on integrated circuits for its sound.

The sound produced by pressing each key depends on the collected data after all, and assigning the do sound to the do key and the re sound to the re key is just to make it more convenient for the pianist to play.

That's it.

But Yukinoshita Yukino is a layman, she doesn't know the piano at all, so she can't enjoy this kind of convenience.

But because of this, she has no constraints.

The score is too anti-human, can't play it at all?

Then change the arrangement order of the piano sounds!

Anyway, she didn't know what the real order of the keys was.

This is the 'method' mentioned by Yuanjing.

Relying on this method, Yukinoshita Yukino walked on the ground on this cliff that all pianists despaired of, and finally——

The sound of the piano stopped.

She reached the finish line smoothly.

It lasted 3 minutes and 26 seconds, with a total of 1578 notes.

Complete and complete, without any mistakes.

In other words, this match was Yukinoshita Yukino's victory.

Cinderella from the countryside, with the help of an evil(?) wizard, defeats Snow White from the piano world.

Haha, what kind of messed up fairy tale script is this.

"I lost." After a moment of silence, Touma Kazusa let out a long breath and admitted frankly, "According to the agreement, I will return to the string department, the votes for the string department..."

"Wait a minute," the crisp male voice interrupted Touma Kazusa's words, and Yuan Jing, who had always been very quiet, said, "When did we make such an agreement?"

"Huh?" Touma Kazusa's eyes widened in doubt, she searched her memory carefully and found that it was indeed the case.Only the prizes for Touma and Sa were agreed in the competition, but nothing was mentioned about the prizes for those two.

"But, Yukinoshita-san doesn't want to..."

"We really need votes for the string club, but Xue Nai and I feel that if we rely on this kind of competition and force you to go back there, then we might as well not do it." Yuan Jing stood up, and from his schoolbag, Pull out a pair of headphones. "I hope you can return to the string department willingly."

At the end of the performance, Yukinoshita Yukino stepped off the piano seat. This performance obviously consumed her a lot of energy, and she was even a little speechless.

But she still stood straight beside Yuanjing, expressing her attitude clearly.

"How is that possible?"

"Of course it's possible." Handing the earphones in his hands to Touma Kazusa, Yuanjing had a slight smile on his face, "And it's quite simple——"

"Just be a fan."

"Become a fan? Whose fan?" Touma Kazusa felt as if he had used up all the shocks of his life today.

"Needless to say," Yuanjing walked towards the piano stand, he needed to switch the electronic synthesizer to another mode, "Of course he became a fan of Touma Kazuya just like us."

Chapter 15 A sound without impurities

After putting on the black earphones, Touma and Sa sat on the piano seat.

The sound insulation effect of the black earphones is quite good. After putting it on the ear, it feels like someone has deleted the time at once, turning the noisy morning into a quiet late night.

For a moment, Touma and Sha could only hear the sound of his heart beating faster and faster.

It seems to be expecting something, and the agitation is getting faster and faster.

'It', no, it should be said that I am looking forward to something?

Touma Kazusa looked forward, at the boy who was playing with the electronic organ.He used a tool to dismantle the trick-laden row of keys, since it was no longer needed.

After that, he started pressing the buttons on this keyboard.

Touma Kazusa knew the function of these buttons. On a general electronic keyboard, these buttons play the role of switching the sound of the piano.This is the button you need to press if you want the keyboard to sound like a bass or other instrument.

But this electronic piano was made by Yuan Jing, and only he knew the function of this button.

Touma Kazusa didn't ask.This is not only because she is a loser, but also because she has developed an inexplicable trust in Yuan Jing.

Put on your headphones and play music only you can hear on this keyboard.What is the point of this thing?

Winter horse and yarn are not clear.But she knew there must be something to it.

The man in front of me would never do meaningless things.Her defeat is the best proof.

At this moment, Yuan Jing's movements stopped.He looked at Touma and Sasa, and made an 'OK' gesture, indicating that he had finished adjusting.

Taking a deep breath, Touma Hesha let his mind go.

She pressed down her fingers and began to play the first bar of "The Devil".

The sound of the piano came from the earphones, and the notes corresponded one-to-one with the keys she played. It seemed that Yuanjing didn't play any tricks to disrupt the order of the keys.

However, this does not mean that he did not play tricks.

"The Devil" is Touma Kazusa's entry in the piano competition. She spent hundreds of hours playing this piece well.Therefore, even though he only played less than a bar, Touma Kazusa was keenly aware of the 'strangeness'.

"This is, what's going on?" Touma Hesa ​​stopped her fingers, and she slightly staggered the earphones on her ears, revealing the white outline like a small ingot, so that she could hear Yuanjing's answer clearly.

"I said before, if you win, I will give you the legendary 'no-noise piano'." Yuan Jing caressed the black guy who had condensed his three nights of hard work, "This is that A 'no noise piano'."

"..."

"It is impossible to create a 'no-noise piano' in the real world. This thing is like a 'smooth and frictionless ground', which only exists in people's imagination." Yuan Jing looked a little speechless Touma Kazusa said, "Although it is impossible to make that kind of piano, people can know what kind of sound that kind of piano will play."

"Student Dongma, the sound you just heard is not the usual piano sound collected through recording, but the simulated piano sound through physical calculations."

"...Physical Computing?"

"That's right. The 'no-noise piano' that doesn't exist in reality can be simulated through data to make it exist in the virtual world, and what you play is such a piano."

Because of this, it is necessary to wear earphones to eliminate external interference as much as possible, so that the real, impurity-free piano sound can flow into her ears.

Touma Kazusa realizes the meaning of earphones,

She put on the earphones properly again, bit her lower lip, and tightened her fair and delicate face.

Both Yuanjing and Yukinoshita Yukino have seen Touma Kazusa's expression before.

Because she used this expression during the piano competition.

She began to strike the keys, focused and serious, without stopping and moving forward.Touma Kazusa is using all her energy to burn herself hard, playing the piano that is too illusory but real.

At this moment, what kind of sound is pouring out of Touma Kazusa's earphones?The origin is unknown.A few notes leaking from the earphones will immediately be mixed with various sounds and become musical sounds that can be seen everywhere.

Now Touma Kazusa finally knows what he has been looking for, the so-called piano sound without impurities.

That's—

"It's so ugly." Touma Kazusa stopped her playing hands and made a very pungent evaluation.

That's right, just like water is not the purer the better, the piano sound is not the purer the better.

In fact, Yuanjing himself tried to play this kind of 'piano', and the sound was thin and boring, not as beautiful as others expected.

"Is this boring sound what I was after before?" The girl unconsciously tapped the keyboard with her fingers, and every sound that sounded in her ears seemed to mock her previous efforts.

But she didn't feel displeased at all. Instead, she felt an indescribable joy, a feeling that the thing she was looking for finally had an answer.

She tore off the earphones, unplugged the earphone cable, turned her head, waved to Yukino Yukino behind her, and then leaned her body to the side to give up half of the space.

Its meaning is self-evident.

Yukinoshita Yukino stepped forward and sat beside Touma Kazuya.

Both of them are pretty girls with a very high standard, and the two extremely beautiful faces set off each other, like lotus flowers with stalks, making this scene dreamlike.

"I'll play the high-pitched part," Touma Kazusa looked at Yukinoshita Yukino with a slightly confused expression, and then said, "It means I'll talk about the right-hand part, and you'll play the left-hand part. How about it? "

Yukinoshita Yukino nodded quietly.

The music then played again.

that music you ask?

Yukinoshita Yukino can play, only that one, right?

The piano sound without noise only exists in the earphones. After tearing it off, what the electronic organ emits is the ordinary music mixed with noise that can be seen everywhere.

But that's fine.

This kind of music is real, touching, and the most beautiful.

The happy time is always short, as if in an instant, the combination of the two came to the end.

Back to that cliff.

Without the out-of-order keys, Yukinoshita Yukino couldn't complete the performance in this place, and Touma Kazusa couldn't play it alone.

But the two didn't stop at all.When entering the gap of the ending, Touma Kazusa held Yukinoshita Yukino's hand, as if to play with her hand in hand.

The two of them looked at Yuanjing together.

Yuanjing naturally understood what they meant.He was facing the two of them across the electronic keyboard, so in his perspective, the keys were reversed, but this obviously did not hinder him in any way.

He also put his fingers on the keyboard.

There are other solutions to this ending, which can be called the cliff of death:

If one person can't play it, wouldn't it be better if several people play it together?

Chapter No.16 Playing the piano is really fun

Lack of self-confidence is the enemy of a musician.

Self-doubt, self-denial, self-criticism... These negative emotions are the so-called 'noise', which will make one's music dull and obscure.

There is no problem with Touma Kazusa's piano.

She just fell into a vortex of self-doubt and couldn't like her own voice.

Then as long as she likes her own voice again, all problems will be solved.

This is the ultimate goal of Yuanjing.

It now appears that this goal has been achieved.

The song is over.

Touma Kazusa laughed.
