In Tokyo, there is a music girl training system

Touma Kazusa knows how good Ruba is to Shoko. As an adult, she sees it very clearly, but for this reason she hopes Ruba will be nicer to Shoko.

"That's it..."

"Well, that's not bad, isn't it?"

However, Touma Hesa ​​did not expect that after she finished speaking, the expression on Ruyu's face was one of relief.

"If that's what it ends up being, then it's not bad."

I will leave eventually, and if Xiangzi holds on to his hatred, then perhaps it will be a good thing for Xiangzi.

certainly......

Maybe it's a good thing for him too.

After taking a look at the system announcement about Toyokawa Shoko seducing a singer who was about to reach the master level and then the capitalist's proficiency was improved again, Lu Yu shook his head.

"Ms. Hesha, I know what's wrong with Xiangzi, but there is one other matter I want to discuss with you."

"what's up?"

"It's about the Hamamatsu Piano Competition."

"Hamamatsu Piano Competition?"

"Well, this year's Hamamatsu Tournament will start as normal. It will be held in five months. I plan to let Xiangzi participate in this competition."

"Hamamatsu..."

Hearing this name, Touma Kazusa was lost in memories for a moment.

Hamamatsu Piano Competition.

This competition, which may seem like a rustic name at first glance, is actually one of the famous piano competitions in Japan.

The competition was founded in 1978 by Japanese pianist, educator and composer Mr. Yoshimi Ishikawa and has a history of more than 40 years.

The Hamamatsu Piano Competition enjoys a high reputation internationally. It is held every three years and is considered one of the most authoritative and fair piano competitions in the world. Kazusa Touma also won the runner-up in the junior category in this competition and became one of the most popular new generation pianists in Japan at that time.

"No problem. I think Xiangzi can definitely participate in Hamamatsu with her level. If it is Xiangzi, I think she should be able to at least win a championship."

"Winning the first prize in Hamamatsu should relieve Xiangzi of a lot of pressure and burden."

As the largest piano competition in Japan, the Hamamatsu Piano Competition has one champion, one runner-up and one third place. And because there are so many participants from all over Japan, this competition has five winners in addition to the top three.

In Touma and Sa's eyes, Shoko's current level should allow him to win the championship relatively easily, and if he performs well, he might even be able to fight for the third place.

You should know that the winning prize of the Hamamatsu Piano Competition is not a fake award. Winning this award means that Xiangzi's piano level has reached the top ten among her peers. Once this level is recognized by the public, it means that Xiangzi will become a socially recognized pianist, and then she will more or less receive some commercial performance invitations.

This also means that Xiangzi has officially taken a solid step towards becoming a top pianist. At the same time, the income from those performances can also allow Xiangzi to unload a large part of the burden on her shoulders.

However, Sagiba's words stunned Touma and Sa.

"Ms. Hesa, what I mean is that I want Xiangzi to win the championship."

"No, it's not that I want to, but Xiangzi must win the championship!"

Volume 1: Chapter 37: Could this person be him?

“Must win the championship?!”

After hearing what Sagiba said, Touma and Sa were stunned.

"Lu Yu, you, you are not kidding..."

"Of course I'm not kidding, Ms. Hesa, I can tell you directly that my next goal is to help Xiangzi Hamamatsu win the piano competition!"

"this......"

Touma and Sa were silent.

She didn't know what to say or write.

This...is this simply a fantasy?

Hamamatsu is not some fake competition. Although it is only a competition in Japan, it is recognized all over the world.

Touma Kazusa has experienced the same thing. During the years she studied in the UK, people in the British piano industry would show her special respect whenever they heard that she had won the runner-up prize in Hamamatsu.

A Japanese who has just arrived in the UK should have encountered difficulties everywhere, but because of this award, Fuyuma Kazusa has never been troubled by anyone. This alone is enough to show the value of Hamamatsu.

And this is just a runner-up...

"Sagiba, do you know what it means to win the championship on Hamamatsu?!"

Thinking of this, there was a hint of anger in Touma Kazusa's voice, and the good impression she had of Ruyu because of Ruyu taking Xiangzi to the hot spring was once again wiped out.

"I know......"

Of course, Sagi Yu knew the difficulty of Hamamatsu. This damn competition was said to be held in Japan, but the difficulty was almost equal to the world-class difficulty. Sagi Yu knew better than anyone how difficult it was to win the championship in this competition, but did he know what to do?

[Task Objective 3: The goal is to get a top three score in a national-level piano competition, or a top first place in a regional-level piano competition. (Not completed)]

This is the mission objective description for System Mission 3.

Lu Yu asked the system what level the Hamamatsu competition was, and the system replied that it was a regional level...

This is an outrageous thing. The Hamamatsu Piano Competition, which is recognized by the whole world, is actually classified as a regional level in this system!

As for why it is so outrageous, it is because the system analyzed the piano competition based on the history of the Hamamatsu Piano Competition. The number of participants, the time of the event, and the establishment of awards, and the final conclusion drawn from these is that Hamamatsu is a regional competition.

Yes, it sounds strange that an internationally recognized piano competition was judged by the system to be at the regional level. However, there is nothing that can be done about it. After the system's explanation, Lu Yu understood.

Although the Hamamatsu Piano Competition is very cool in reality, it is indeed a regional competition held by the city of Hamamatsu itself, rather than a competition organized by a world-class organization in Japan or other countries.

In other words, the Hamamatsu Piano Competition is one of those competitions that is actually extremely difficult and has a good reputation, but if you insist, it is actually a competition that is lifted up by others.

The prize for the Hamamatsu Piano Competition itself is not high. Even if you win the championship, you will only receive 3 million yen in prize money. As a competition recognized by the world, this amount of prize money is indeed a bit small. But who cares about the 3 million yen when participating in the Hamamatsu Piano Competition!

Because it is held in Hamamatsu, and most of the participants are Japanese, plus some other factors, the system judges Hamamatsu as a regional competition. This result means that if Xiangzi wants to complete the training task goal 3, she must win the championship.

"..."

To be honest, this result makes Lu Yu want to curse the system. Why is your broken system so old-fashioned? Don’t you know the difficulty of Hamamatsu?

However, the answer given by the system is that Sagiha can choose other competitions instead of choosing Hamamatsu.

Lu Yu thought this was true, so he checked other competitions on his phone. Then he found that the other competitions Te Miao had in the past year were either small, unrecognized wild competitions, or truly world-class competitions that required going abroad to participate in other countries...

Pooh!

In other words, the only suitable place within a year is Hamamatsu, he has no choice!

As for the competition a year later, Lu Yu simply did not consider it. As for the reason...

[Target individual's name: Toyokawa Shoko]

[Current capitalist capability of the target: petty bourgeois level (27%)↑]

Who knows what will happen in a year!

So there was no other choice but for Sagiha to hope that Toyokawa Shoko would win the championship at Hamamatsu.

-------------------------

Meanwhile, on the other side.

In a dressing room, Eripiyo, the manager of the nationally renowned idol Hoshino Ai, hurriedly opened the door with a sealed briefcase and ran to her idol Hoshino Ai.

"Love, I found it!"

"real?!"

The beautiful star eyes are shining.

Did she really find what she wanted?!

"Well, I found a private detective who charges a high price. Although she is a strange person, her ability is indeed unquestionable. This is what you want. All the information about the girl named Toyokawa Shoko is here."

As she spoke, Eripiyo thought of the female private detective who looked like a ten-year-old child. To be honest, Eripiyo was scared when she went to her house to meet her because the room was really too magical.

Taking the file bag handed to her by Eripiyo, Hoshino Ai couldn't wait to tear open the seal. Hoshino Ai knew that it was a crime to ask a detective to investigate others at will.

But she had no choice!

In order to find that person, she would not hesitate even if it meant committing a crime or going to jail!

The seal was torn off, and a large stack of information about Toyokawa Shoko was taken out, including information about Toyokawa Shoko himself and the changes in the Toyokawa family. Along with the information, there were also about a dozen photos.

Her eyes fell on one of the photos, and Hoshino Ai saw a girl named Toyokawa Shoko and a young man sitting in a high-end restaurant for dinner.

The man in the photo looked to be about eighteen or nineteen years old, with a good figure and handsome looks. At first glance, he looked a bit like Toyokawa Shoko's brother.

However, Hoshino Ai saw the introduction about Toyokawa Shoko in the information. Toyokawa Shoko had no brothers, neither older nor younger brothers.

"..."

"this person......"

Could this person be Mu Yu?

Volume 1: Chapter 38: Box of Weapons, So Terrifying

[Toyokawa Shoko, 16 years old, a freshman at Hanegaoka Girls' High School, the only daughter of the Toyokawa family, left the Toyokawa family with her father after the tragedy of the Toyokawa family.]

[I once formed a band called CRYCHIC with Wakaba Mutsu, Takamatsu Touma, Shiina Tachibana, and Nagasaki Soyo, but they stopped their activities for some reason not long ago. The band only has one existing work, called Kasuga Shadow.]

[Her father was deeply shocked and became an alcoholic. The young Shoko Toyokawa took on the burden of life and went to school while working part-time to support the family.]

Was she originally the eldest daughter of the Toyokawa clan?

Hoshino Ai had some memory of the name Toyokawa. Although the family had not reached the level of a top chaebol, it was still well-known in Tokyo. She didn't expect that the girl who called her that day was actually the only daughter of the Toyokawa family.

The family also encountered misfortune. While going to school, working to support myself and taking care of my alcoholic father.

What a strong and brave girl! If it were me, I probably wouldn’t be able to do this, right?

However, her situation in the past did not seem to be much better than that of the girl named Toyokawa Shoko. She had no education or academic qualifications, and her original idol agency went bankrupt. In order to support her, Eripiyo basically resigned and squandered all her savings. It seemed that she was almost at the end of her road.

Fortunately, Mu Yu was there to support me!

Seeing Xiangzi's experience, Hoshino Ai felt somewhat fortunate that she met the right person at the right time.

[I was originally in charge of telephone communications at a housekeeping service company, but I suddenly resigned about two months ago.]

Resign?

Have you found a more suitable job?

Also, about two months ago, this time seemed to be about the same time as Mu Yu left.

[After leaving the company, it was found that he did not continue to work, but for some reason he was able to buy a Boston piano for 6166020 yen.]

When she saw this record, obvious suspicion immediately appeared in Hoshino Ai's eyes.

She suddenly bought a piano worth 6 million yen? Isn't this a bit too suspicious?

[After purchasing the expensive piano, she appeared in the public eye again two weeks later, setting up a personal account on the Internet and began to publish some personal piano-related works. (Note: There are doubts about the purchase of the piano. After investigation, it was found that the person who actually paid was not Toyokawa Shoko herself but a young man named Sagiba. In addition, based on the collected information, it can be judged that the two were living together.)]

Heron feather?

When she saw the name, Hoshino Ai immediately thought of the man in the photo. The name sounded very similar to Mu Yu, and the things he did seemed to be similar...

[Two days ago, a very strange solo piano recital was held in a live house called Starry. According to the feedback from the audience, Toyokawa Shoko's piano skills are very good, almost reaching the professional level. (Note: Very strange refers to the format of the concert. The concert did not charge tickets, but provided all guests with valuable drinks, snacks and souvenirs for free.)]

Hoshino Ai: "......"

What does this mean? This performance is so weird.

The piano performance is at a professional level, and not only is there no admission fee, but the company also pays for providing alcohol, drinks, snacks and souvenirs to the audience?

Is this really a concert instead of a charity event?

[According to Starry’s publicity, there will be a similar performance in about ten days. The format remains the same, no tickets are charged, free drinks, snacks and souvenirs are provided.]

This is the end of the text part of Toyokawa Shoko's information.

This information can be said to be very complete, from Toyokawa Shoko's personal introduction to the Toyokawa family's affairs, to Shoko's changes along the way and his current situation, it can be said that everything has been investigated clearly.

You get what you pay for. A private detective who charges a high price has no disadvantages other than being expensive. The level of detail alone makes Lu Yu kowtow to him.

Box of weapons, so terrifying!

"The name of the account is Sakiko, right?"
