"Teach me before Major Troll arrives, and I'll play it to him."
"Impossible. This instrument is very complicated. If you really want to learn it, you have to learn from the most basic. At the very beginning, you have to write down the notes represented by each key here."
"So troublesome?"
Princess Salome tilted her head.
"How long will it take to learn the one you play?"
"Well, if you learn fast..."
Mute thought for a moment, then raised a finger.
"one day?"
"... a month."
When the princess raised her eyebrows, those charming peach blossom eyes suddenly became sharp.
"I order you, teach me in an hour."
Mutt was not happy either.
"Even if you are a princess, you can't be unreasonable."
Is this something an hour can teach
Princess Salome showed her face and smiled brightly.
"What I say makes sense."
Mute: "..."
Princess, you are so unreasonable, do those people who admire you know
"One hour, hurry up, it's been two minutes now."
"I said it was impossible!"
"Then punish you."
The boy was also angry.
"You can't even punish me!"
"Then, together with Major General Troll, he will be punished."
"So what's the matter with the Major General—"
"You are his little lover, you make me unhappy, I will naturally look for him, um, it's good to keep him here for a month~"
"Wait for me, who is that little lover—"
"Start teaching soon."
...
……………
The two quarreled for a long time without nourishment, but in the end Mutt still couldn't resist the princess's unreasonableness, so he came up with a compromise.
The princess doesn't really want to learn how to play the piano completely in one hour, she just wants to learn to play that piece in one hour.
The silver-white liquid metal unfolded, like a layer of tulle lightly covering all the keys, coating each key evenly with a layer of soft silver. After Mutt finished playing a song, the liquid memory metal recorded the sequence and duration of pressing the keys.
Then, when the princess plays, which key changes color is the key that needs to be pressed, and the princess only needs to press the key according to the color and the length of time for the color to change.
... Don't ask Mutt how he came up with this idea.
Whether it's drumming games or dancing machines, these games were quite popular on Earth at the beginning.
In the beginning, the princess couldn't react to the color-changing keys, and she was in a hurry. She often looked at a color-changing key, and before she could press it, she changed to another key to change color.
And there are several keys that change color each time, even if her eyes can keep up, her fingers can't.
So I tried several times and failed every time.
But even though she failed several times, Salome didn't lose her temper. On the contrary, she became more and more enthusiastic, and stubbornly struggled with this instrument.
Even if the servant brought her a fragrant tea, she waved her hand to tell the servant to leave her alone, and then continued to fiddle with the piano keys and the discoloration of the memory metal...
For the obsessive behavior of the princess, Mutt said he understood.
That type of knocking game has been enduring on the earth for a long time. Many people often can't stop playing it at the beginning. After holding their breath and breaking through more than ten levels in a row, they realize that five or six hours have passed like this. .
Hey, I think back then he was also addicted to games and played for a long time.
While shaking his head as he thought about it, the young man reached out his hand and unceremoniously took out small snacks from the plate put aside by the servant. He stood by the piano and began to eat while watching the princess wrestle with the keys.
Speaking of which, Princess Salome has a high level of comprehension and finger coordination. With such a complex tapping game, with her tenacity, she insisted on clearing the level within an hour... No, she played it completely. up.
To be honest, this kind of thing that is purely composed of notes is a heaven and earth compared to Mutter's performance, but Salome feels very satisfied.
Although she didn't know why, she felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction after finishing playing so hard.
She breathed a sigh of relief, only feeling satisfied and comfortable, and turned her head to look at Mutt who had been standing by the side watching.
Those green eyes were shining brightly, like a white cat with blue eyes who was extremely arrogant on weekdays, but at this moment it was looking up at Miute with shining eyes, begging for praise and praise.
The boy holding the last piece of pastry in his right hand stared blankly at the bright green eyes that were begging for praise, and then laughed.
He suddenly remembered his former self.
At that time, he was also sitting in front of the piano like this, with his mother standing beside him. After he finished playing a piece, he would look at his mother expectantly, and then he would get a smile, and a warm hand would touch him gently. s head.
That scene seems to have traveled through tens of thousands of years, overlapping together.
He smiled and reached out, just like his mother used to do, smiling and gently touching the head of the person sitting in front of the piano.
"It plays well."
He smiled and said the same things as his mother.
Mutt's action immediately stunned Salome.
Her pupils contracted forcefully, and an extremely rare look of astonishment appeared on her face.
As a princess, since she was born, no one has dared to be so bold.
She opened her eyes wide and looked at Mute, and Mute immediately realized what she had done, and quickly withdrew her hand in a panic.
"Ah, sorry, accidentally—"
Oops.
he thinks.
Accidentally touched the head of the princess. Should he be punished for disrespect by beheading his hand
Salome stared at him blankly, and after a while, her round eyes slowly softened and curved.
She tilted her head to look at Mute, her cascading blond hair was scattered on the keys, and a bright smile appeared on the princess's face.
She had a great laugh.
It was a pure smile without any other meaning. Salome smiled like a child who was praised, her smile was brilliant and bright.
The young man who looked at the child-like cheerful smiling face froze for a moment, then relaxed. He looked at Salome and smiled, shallowly and with a little tenderness.
There was an indescribably soft aura surging around the two of them, inexplicably, even when the light in the room fell on the two of them, it seemed a lot softer.
The years are quiet and good, and time seems to engrave the moment when the two look at each other and smile, and it becomes forever.
...
When the black-haired major general walked in, this was what he saw.
His footsteps paused, his slender Danfeng eyes slightly narrowed, and the blue under his eyes was slightly deeper.
Because Princess Salome had already given instructions in advance, when he came here, there were already attendants waiting at the door, and he was brought in directly without asking the princess for instructions.
He walked straight forward, and suddenly stepped on the wooden floor with a little heavier footsteps, and the sound of those footsteps was extremely loud in the quiet room at the moment.
Such dull footsteps naturally alarmed the two people over there. Princess Salome turned her head and saw Major General Troll, her eyes lit up immediately.
"It can be regarded as inviting you, Major General Troll."
She looked at Troll and said with a smile on her face.
"I just learned it, play it for you."
Princess Salome said so, and then pressed the keys again and again, and played the piece of music with monotonous notes.
After playing a piece, she turned her head to look at Troll who was standing still, and smiled.
"Does it sound good?"
The young major general slanted his body slightly, leaning against the wall sideways, crossed his hands on his chest, fine black hair slanted down from the corners of his slender eyes, and stood there with his feet staggered.
He kept this posture from the beginning to the end, looking coldly at the two people on the other side of the piano.
After waiting for the song to finish playing, when the princess asked him this, his eyes moved slightly, his light-colored thin lips parted, and he spit out two words.
"Hard to hear."
he said, expressionless.
Mute: "..."
Major General, is it really okay for you to speak so coldly and viciously to Her Royal Highness, who is considered to be your boss
Although it's true...
It is already the limit to be able to play like this for an hour.
The boy sighed.
Forget it, let him come to the rescue.
Thinking of this, Mutt dragged a stool, placed it beside the princess, and sat down.
"You just have to play this part."
He pointed to a small area and said to Princess Salome, then raised his hands and hung above the keys.
"Come."
He turned his head and smiled at the princess beside him, and then put his hands on the keys of the piano with the princess.
The sound of the piano suddenly became aroused, and it was monotonous from the beginning, with an exciting taste.
The queen's fingers tapped on the keys in front of her lightly. She was a little surprised at the beginning, but now she understands it. She smiled happily, and tapped the keys with her fingertips together with the young man beside her.
Their hands fell on the keys almost at the same time, and there was a subtle time difference, but the wonderful music they played gave off an unusually harmonious feeling.
Their hands flew back and forth like butterflies, and the shadows falling on the keys were intertwined.
The black-haired major general still maintained the posture of leaning against the wall with his hands folded on his chest. He watched the two play the instrument, and the melodious notes surrounded him.
He looked at the two of them with no expression on his face.
...
"As a reward for teaching me to play this piece, this instrument is given to you."
"Ah? No, no need."
"What I rewarded, I never took back."
"But such a precious..."
Mute hesitated, although he really wanted it, but Princess Salome obviously liked this instrument very much, and it always felt bad to take away something that others liked.
The blond princess rolled her eyes.
"I said why are you so stupid, I gave it to you, and it's not easy to find someone to ask for another one."
Mutt reacted immediately.
That's right.
It might be difficult for him to get a piano from Mir, but as soon as Princess Salome asked, Mir would definitely send it over in a hurry.
That being the case, of course he happily accepted the reward from the princess.
...
I don't know which express channel the piano was delivered through. Mute and Major General Troll had just stepped into their residence. When they looked up, they saw that the piano had been delivered, and it was safely in the room. corner.
The speed is really fast.
Mutt couldn't help feeling so emotional.
Well, I've been tired all day, let's play the piano tomorrow.
Thinking of this, he yawned, turned around and walked towards the bathroom.
But just as he took a step in that direction, someone grabbed his wrist and dragged him in the opposite direction.
Mutt was dragged abruptly to the piano by Troll's wrist. He couldn't react. He didn't know what the major general wanted to do, but saw the major general sitting down in front of the piano.
The major general did not speak, his eyes were lowered, and the shadow of his slender eyelashes cast in his blue pupils.
He raised his hand, and his beautiful white fingers lightly pressed on a white key, with a ding-dong, the piano issued a pleasant note.
After that moment, the major general's fingers just rested on the keys, as if he was waiting for something.
Mutt thought he understood.
The major general also wants to learn to play the piano.
In this way, he almost forgot that this major general is an earth controller, and this kind of musical instrument from the earth will definitely arouse his interest.
Teach, teach, the major general likes it, he will definitely teach.
He was about to speak when he saw the white bandage on the major general's right hand.
The healing liquid has been removed, and the skin on the outside looks scabbed, but the injury inside is not serious, so you can't move around casually. If you play the piano now, it will be bad if you accidentally make the injury worse.
"Next time." He said, "Don't worry, I'll teach you later."
Mutt said so, and then turned to leave. But before he could turn around, his wrist was grabbed again.
The young man turned his head and saw the major general sitting on the spot holding his wrist tightly. He didn't look at Mutt, but his gaze was still fixed on the black and white keys in front of him.
He lowered his head slightly, his jet-black hair was scattered in front of his eyes, his handsome face, which could almost be described as exquisite, was deserted, without any expression.
But he was holding Mute's wrist and refused to let go, his lips were pursed, and they became thinner, almost showing a straight line of sharpness.
However, this kind of sharpness is not the kind of coldness and sharpness when facing the enemy, but...
"You taught her."
The major general said, his tone was very cold, but inexplicably gave people a feeling of accusation.
Mute: "..."
It is definitely his illusion that he heard a small grievance from the cold tone of the Major General!
Absolutely!
And, I think the major general's expression of loss and small grievances is inexplicably cute. It must be that his head is broken!
Absolutely yes!
