Conan: Starting out by living with a divorced older sister

"Lianzi, this is your specialty, come and take a look."

"Forget it, your playing is average, and several notes are off. I won't applaud someone of this caliber."

"Well, for someone like you who has an absolute sense of pitch, it's hard for anyone to find fault with you."

"At the moment, apart from my teacher, Domoto Isshi, there should be no one else~"

======

The man playing the piano is a man in a white suit. I don’t know what he does, but his job must be to show off!

Coincidentally, Murong Zhen’s job is to slap people in the face!

The man in the suit only played one section of the music and then stopped. He bowed lightly to the crowd and was about to receive thunderous applause from everyone, but was greeted with a burst of sneers instead.

Everyone looked at him, and the one who sneered was Murong Zhen.

He said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I usually don't laugh~"

"Unless I can't help it ~ hahaha," I laughed.

I thought to myself: We have no grudges against each other, it's all your fault for wanting to show off in front of me, but there happened to be a few of my type at the scene.

Then I can only step on you to get to the top with regret!

"What are you laughing at? What qualifications do you have to laugh at me? Do you play better than me?"

Murong Zhen ignored him, walked straight to the piano and sat down.

Facts speak louder than words, and he wants to use facts to answer the suit man's question.

Murong Zhen first ran his fingers quickly across the keys, and after making sure there were no problems, he began his performance. As the saying goes, there is no harm without comparison, Murong Zhen naturally had to play the same piece as the man in the suit, so that a contrast effect could be created and people could hear the difference.

======

On the other side, Reiko Akiba and Yoko Okino, who had not seen each other for a long time, seemed to have endless things to say.

It was not until she heard the melodious piano sound again that Akiba Reiko's eyes lit up.

Okino Yoko also noticed her change and said, "What's wrong? Reiko, isn't it the same song as before?"

"It's the same piece of music, but it shouldn't be the last person playing. Someone else should be playing. Let's go see who's playing the piano~"

"Ah? You're not interested! I'm really impressed by you!" Although Yoko Okino was helpless, she still followed slowly.

Reiko Akiba pushed through the crowd and finally saw the man playing the piano. However, because she was facing his back, she couldn't see his face at all, and she didn't recognize anyone present.

I don’t know if it’s because of the sound of the piano or what, but I just feel that the back of the person playing the piano is very charming, as if there are strings of notes lingering around him.

As if guided by something, Reiko Akiba slowly walked onto the stage, then faced the audience and began to sing along with the piano.

The sudden joining of the soprano also made Murong Zhen stunned, but it was only a slight stunned moment, and the movements of his hands were not affected at all.

Just like this, the two of them stood back to back, cooperating with each other in perfect harmony without knowing who each other was or even what each other looked like.

An audio-visual feast is perfectly presented to everyone in this way.

The man in the suit disappeared into the crowd at some point. Perhaps leaving quietly was his wisest choice.

As the rhythm progresses, it slowly enters the climax of the song.

It is a huge test for both the player and the singer.

At this time, the people in the audience were listening attentively and were fascinated. Some of them dropped the wine glasses in their hands onto the soft grass without even noticing.

There were also people who were eating cake and seemed indifferent when their forks fell.

Even the people passing by outside the wall stopped.

Everyone was attracted by this magical music.

The climax of the performance came to an end after the last soothing rhythm. Then, the piano sounds and the singing stopped abruptly. At this moment, everything was silent at the tea party where you could hear a pin drop. Perhaps the only sound was the breathing of the people in the venue.

Murong Zhen stood up and turned around, just in time to meet the eyes of Qiu Ting Lianzi who had also turned around.

At the same time, I said in my heart: It’s actually him (her)!

Murong Zhen stepped forward and politely took the fingertips of Akitani Reiko. Akitani Reiko knew what was going to happen and did not resist. The two of them bowed slightly to express their gratitude to the audience for listening attentively.

The people in the audience reacted and gave thunderous applause. It was originally a grand tea party, but they didn't expect to hear such perfect singing. It was like listening to a free concert. It can be said that the trip was worthwhile.

On the stage, the talented man and beautiful woman, like a golden boy and a jade girl, also formed an enviable picture.

They put aside their hostility towards the opposite sex and wanted to offer their sincere blessings in their hearts, as if it was natural for the two of them to be together.

Some people also came up with some other ideas.

"Hubby, you're too much of a drawer, but I like you so much! Hehehe!"

"Ah Zhen, you are so handsome! So amazing! I really don't know what else you have that I don't know. I am willing to spend my whole life to understand you. Wait a little longer, and soon I can entrust myself to you wholeheartedly!"

"Humph! Man, I admit that you really attracted me. Your method this time is not cliché at all!"

"So handsome! And he plays the piano beautifully, but I wonder how good he is at driving. It would be even better if he could take me for a ride!"

"That's good. I wonder if he would agree to attend the completion ceremony of the twin-tower skyscrapers if we invite him to attend in the name of the Tokiwa Group?"

"I don't know if he can paint, if... Oh! It's too early to get married... But it seems that there is still room for maneuver... Oh, what am I thinking about!"

"Finally, I found someone who is so compatible with me, but she is Yoko's husband. This... he seems to have other confidantes, and it seems that having one more is not a big deal. Oh, what am I thinking!"

Reiko Akiba, who was also immersed in it, gently broke free from Murong Zhen's hand, shyly walked into the crowd below the stage, took Okino Yoko's hand, and disappeared from everyone's sight.

At this time, Moriya Teiji also came on the stage.

Chapter 319 Visiting the Exhibition Room

"First of all, thank you Mr. Murong Zhen for bringing us such beautiful music."

"Secondly, I also know that many people here are detective fans, so I will give a puzzle, and if anyone can guess it, I will invite him to visit my exhibition hall."

"The problem is, you have three people running a company together and now you have to figure out an Internet password."

"Here are the information of those three people. Anyone who is interested can take a look," said Moriya Teiji, and then he took out a stack of papers from his pocket.

Some people who considered themselves smart took the pieces of paper and started reasoning.

After handing out the slips of paper, Moriya Teiji continued, "The pass order is a noun composed by the three of them. There are five hiragana in total."

"The time limit is three minutes!" After saying that, he took out an hourglass, placed it on the table, and then ran aside to light a cigarette. He was very confident about this puzzle.

========================

Below the stage, Sawaguchi Chinami, who was wearing a beige uniform, was a little at a loss as she did not get any slip of paper but was eager to try.

Murong Zhen, who noticed this, walked over from the stage and said, "Ms. Zhi Nami, I think you might be interested too. Let me show you."

Sawaguchi Chinami took the note handed over by Murong Zhen and said, "Thank you, Mr. Murong."

"You can call me A-Zhen and I'll call you Zhi-Nami, how about that?"

"Okay...Okay! By the way, now that you've given it to me, you don't want to guess the riddle anymore?"

"I already guessed it!"

"Ah?! But it's only been less than a minute."

"Do you want to know the answer?"

"Can...can I?"

"Of course no problem!" Murong Zhen then whispered something in Zhi Nami's ear.

I don’t know what Chi Nami heard, but her cheeks turned visibly red.

"I...I understand. Thank you Murong...Azhen!"

the other side

Neither Haruzuki Kotaro nor Shiratori Sara was involved in this project, so Moriya Teiji asked the waiter to bring three glasses of wine and he served them himself.

"Congratulations on your marriage. I heard that there will be a wedding reception in a few days. I wonder if I will be lucky enough to attend it," he said, handing the wine glasses to the two one by one.

"That's not right, Professor Moritani. It's an honor for both of us to have you here."

"Then I'll just go and get some food and drinks. Come on, please forgive me for the poor hospitality. Cheers!"

"Cheers" x2

The glasses clinked together and the drink was then drained.

Afterwards, they chatted for a while until Haruzuki Kotaro began to stagger.

"What's wrong with Mr. Qingyue? Are you feeling unwell?"

"No... I'm fine, just a little dizzy, maybe I can't handle the alcohol."

"I'm sorry to make you laugh, Professor Moritani. Kotaro is just not very good at drinking, so he gets drunk after just a little bit."

"I see. If you don't mind, Ms. Shiratori can take Mr. Harutsuki to the guest room to rest."

"Is that okay? If so, I'm sorry to bother you."

"You're welcome. You are guests, so I will naturally take good care of you." After saying that, he called the waiter over and gave some instructions.

"By the way, Ms. Shiratori, are you okay? Why does your face feel a little red? Do you want to take a good rest in your room?"

"Oh, I... I'm fine, just a little hot. Actually, we don't live together yet..."

"Oh, sorry, I don't know about your situation. Let me ask the waiter to get you a separate room. You two can rest well before leaving."

"Excuse me."

After saying that, Haruzuki Kotaro and Shiratori Sara were helped away by the waiter.

Shibuya Teiji stared at Shiratori Sara's back and shook his head slightly, humph, that old guy got a good deal!
