Chapter 198 Accident
After registering at the place in front of the elevator, Huai Shi entered the waiting area and found a seat to sit down.
Getting used to the pressure, Huai Shi leisurely flipped through the piano score and read it, but as time went by, as the people in front of the queue entered the examination room one by one, Huai Shi became more and more nervous.
It's like the college entrance examination, no matter how good you study, you will inevitably have to go through such a mess tremblingly.
Compared with the girl next to her who was holding the violin and was so nervous that she was about to cry, Huai Shi felt that her psychological quality was already pretty good.
But I still couldn't help feeling a little apprehensive.
Especially in his heart for some reason, there was a vague premonition that made him feel like he was sitting on pins and needles.
He was a little flustered after not seeing him for a long time.
In the silence, Huai Shi stood up suddenly, and attracted a lot of attention. He smiled stiffly: "Excuse me, let's go to the bathroom."
Stepping stiffly, he didn't notice that he was walking along the way.
reflected on the monitor screen.
.
Exam room No. 8.
"Thank you for playing ma'am, very good show."
The examiner James took off his eyes, walked over to shake hands with the red-eyed female examinee, helped her up, and said softly, "The exam is over, and we will carefully evaluate your performance later."
James, who is in his thirties, is tall, with silver-rimmed eyes, and an amiable smile. Although the ABRSM exam is strict, as an examiner, he will try his best to create an environment for students to perform smoothly. He has also seen There are a lot of things like this when I don't perform well and cry angrily.
After soothing him softly, James sent the examinee out of the examination room.
After tidying up the marks of the last candidate, he glanced at today's schedule and rubbed the corners of his eyes wearily.
The professional-level performance test usually takes more than two hours, and it is also an extremely energy-consuming thing for the examiner. Before starting, James also needs to take a break.
"Huaishi?"
He looked at the candidate's file, looked at the handsome face on it, and sighed.
Younger than he thought.
Not long after he rested, the phone on the table rang, and after answering the phone, he froze.
"Temporarily change the examiner?" He frowned unhappily, "Why didn't the committee office notify me?"
"It happens every now and then, doesn't it?" said the voice on the phone.
"That's only applicable during the training period for new examiners, Leona, you know, this is against the rules, and it will also affect my work..."
"—James, you owe me a favor."
After hearing enough of his wordiness, the female voice on the phone became serious, "Do me a favor, I will help you when the ratings are made at the end of the year."
"..."
In the silence, James was the first to lose. He tugged on his tie irritably: "Don't make it too much, Leona, or I will respond to the committee."
"Relax, honey, no one will keep you from coming down, you just need to sit in your office and rest for a while." She said, "At afternoon tea later, there will be your share of cake .”
Snapped!
The phone hangs up.
In the silence, it was as if a soap bubble had been punctured.
With Huai Shi's entry, in just a few minutes, the entire building was replaced from the inside out, and all the security personnel were quickly replaced. More and more strange faces appeared in the building, and then the original The staff knocked down, sealed their mouths, tied them up, and threw them roughly into the storage room. After putting on brand-new uniforms, they walked to their posts with warm smiles.
"Huaishi, come on, you can definitely do it!"
After washing her face for five minutes, Huai Shi finally calmed down, clenched her fists and encouraged herself in the mirror.
It's a pity that the reflection in the mirror really can't be called passionate. Although the dark circles under the eyes caused by staying up all night have disappeared, after washing with cold water for a long time, his face looks paler and paler.
Against the mountain ghost's gloomy temperament, it looked as if it was about to die on the spot.
After staring at her ugly face for a long time, Huai Shi herself felt a little dejected and dared not look at it any more. Fortunately, she finally calmed down a lot. On the way back, he also splurged at the vending machine and bought two bottles of hot drinks, one for drinking and one for warming his hands.
can pass.
Packaged.
How could it be impossible...
Huai Shi crazily cheered herself up and comforted herself: As long as there are no accidents, this exam is almost guaranteed!
Then, an accident came...
"Huaishi!"
Behind, a voice sounded, with surprise and joy: "It really is you!"
Huai Shi turned her head in astonishment, and looked behind her, only to see an old man who seemed familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere.
"Uh... who are you?"
Visible to the naked eye, the graceful old man's expression twitched, and Mr. Zhao, who hadn't appeared in the book of fate for the first time in a volume, showed a helpless expression.
"At your school celebration, we met..."
Huai Shi was stunned for a moment, her heart tightened, and she suddenly realized why this old man looked so familiar—isn't this the fucking avatar on her introductory cello textbook!
Why does it seem like I have seen it before?
Recalling the past of his crimes at the school celebration, his heart tightened again: What good did that woman, Crow, do against her own face!
He put one hand into his pocket, quickly flipped through the records left by the crow, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
It's okay, it's just a drug...
After he understood the cause and effect, he immediately stood up and smiled: "Uh, Mr. Zhao has not seen him for a long time. I was a little nervous and didn't recognize him for a while. Why are you here?"
With both hands, I respectfully handed over a can of hot grapefruit tea.
Boss drinking tea.
"It's okay, it's understandable."
Mr. Zhao took the tea, patted him on the shoulder generously, and cherished this junior with unlimited future and talent: "Richard told me that when I saw your name on the public list at the door, I didn't know what to do." Believe it or not, I confirmed with the front desk several times——
Don't be nervous, are you confident? "
Huai Shi forced herself to hold on, and grinned, "Isn't this kind of test a sure thing?"
"Oh, that's good." Mr. Zhao nodded slightly, and suddenly said without thinking, "I was worried that you would blame me for being troublesome."
"Um?"
Huai Shi was alert, turned her head subconsciously, and looked at his smiling face.
The uneasy premonition in my heart suddenly became stronger.
Then, he saw a group of white, black, or yellow old men and women appearing from the side of Mr. Zhao as if by magic. Some faces seemed to be familiar to him, but some he had never seen before, but they all carried Huai Shi's anxiety. smiling at him.
"Let me introduce you."
Mr. Zhao put down the hot grapefruit tea in his hand, pointed to the fat old man at the front and said, "This is the famous performer Mr. Newman who happened to come to Xinhai for the 4th Chopin Music Symposium."
"……oh."
Huai Shi shook hands with the old man who came up in a daze, and then heard him say: "This is Mr. Li, the first conductor of the Dongxia Jinling Philharmonic Orchestra."
Another old man who was often seen on the cover of textbooks came over and patted him on the shoulder enthusiastically: "Young man is not bad."
"Huh?" Huai Shi was confused.
Mr. Zhao over there is still introducing, "This is the person in charge of ABRSM stationed in Jinling, Ms. Vivian..."
"Sir Schroeder, principal cellist of the Venice Philharmonic..."
"The organizer of the Vienna world tour music art show..."
"This is Ms. Li, the vice president of Dongxia Artists Association..."
"This is the London School of Art..."
"This is America..."
"this……"
It was like reporting the names of the dishes. After reporting the identities of the sixteen old men and old ladies, Mr. Zhao ended the introduction with Huai Shi's dull expression.
The group of old men and old ladies from various countries covering almost 40% of the current world's music pedigrees surrounded Huai Shi as if they were looking at some rare treasure, sighing with each other in amazement.
"It's such a coincidence, Qi Yu!"
The fat old man Newman looked around his companions, and finally his eyes fell on the shivering Caiji Huaishi: "Mr. Huai, we just heard from Mr. Zhao that your superb talent is not inferior to that of Ai Ting back then." The contagious power of the lady is incredible, I never thought there would be a second genius like Ai!"
"Huh?" Huai Shi was dumbfounded.
Ai Ting?
The familiar name, I seem to have heard it before, but I can't remember it.
Immediately afterwards, in the anticipation of the crowd of old men and old ladies, Professor Richard from the American Music History Society showed a warm smile and let out the last bolt from the blue:
"So, for this exam, please let us sit on the sidelines."
Meow meow meow?
Huai Shi, who had been completely petrified, opened her mouth wide, her eyes widened in two.
You fuck up!
Now, he finally figured out the identities of this group of people, and his knees softened suddenly—just kidding, please go upstairs to attend the Chopin music seminar honestly, please don't mess around, okay?
What the hell is this?
Is it an examination room or an international classical music festival?
You guys should pay attention, as long as someone sends an RPG here, it will be on the headlines of the BBC in five minutes. Don't wait until tomorrow, more than one-third of the musicians in the world will wear sackcloth and filial piety, okay?
Huai Shi suddenly felt a burst of blackness in front of her eyes.
It's like seeing holy light shining on shit.
The monitoring room was completely cold at the moment. Under the monitoring of several computers and hundreds of cameras, all the news in the entire building was collected in one place in an orderly manner.
"The first team is in place."
"The second team is in place."
"The reserve team is in place."
"The collection enters."
"The professor has successfully entered the venue and started contacting the collection. What about the others?"
In the monitoring room, the ghoul captain picked up the walkie-talkie, "There are a little more interference factors, be careful not to affect innocent people when you do it—is the No. 1 decoy coming now?"
"It's already outside the door."
The outfield surveillance turned to a screen, and it was Fu Yi himself who was sipping a cup of milk tea on the screen, but...
The captain frowned and asked in confusion:
"Who is that next to her?"
Ask for a monthly ticket~
