Tokyo’s Most Affectionate

Chapter 553: The Piano God

Views:

At the Tokyo Bunka Kaikan, as the admission time approaches, ticket holders enter one after another.

The large concert hall was already packed with people, and there were some official staff standing in the corners.

“I finally bought the ticket this time.”

“It is said that the live performance of Zero Hour Master is more exciting than the live broadcast and recorded broadcast. I hope this trip will be worthwhile.”

The performance was about to begin and people were talking in low voices.

"Card."

However, with the arrangement and arrangement of the lights, the hall fell into darkness and people fell silent.

At 8 o'clock in the evening, a beam of light shone on the stage, and it appeared exactly at midnight.

Gentleman's hat, tuxedo, white shirt, black bow tie, and a signature mask.

They took off their hats, bowed, saluted, and all the lights in the hall lit up.

“I am Zero Hour, and I would like to thank everyone for watching my concert.”

Facing the entire audience and the camera, Kurosawa Hikaru stood alone on the stage, and through the headset, he emitted a magnetic and deep voice.

As he began, the scene remained dead silent.

"oh!"

But in the next moment, it was as if a huge rock was thrown into the lake, exploding with a loud bang.

In an instant, the applause was like thunder, as if it was going to overturn the ceiling.

For fans, the opening line "I am Zero Hour" is very familiar.

So far, all the MVs uploaded by Lingshi on YouTube have this opening line, which makes people love and hate it.

What I love is that these lines and opening remarks are like anti-counterfeiting codes.

What I hate is that when the song plays on a loop, this sentence always occurs, making it impossible for me to enjoy the music quietly.

No matter what the feeling is, just at this moment, seeing Master Lingshi standing in front of you and saying this opening remark, one feels a tingling sensation on his scalp and goose bumps all over his body.

Because everyone knows that after this opening statement, you will definitely be given an auditory feast.

Such applause was not only heard in this concert hall, but also echoed in front of mobile phones and computers across the country.

Enjoying the applause from the fans, Kurosawa Hikaru didn't intend to say any nonsense. He put his hat back on his head, turned around and walked towards the piano.

As he walked, the lights in the concert hall disappeared instantly, leaving only two spotlights.

A spotlight illuminates the piano.

A spotlight and thunderous applause illuminated Zero Hour's path in the darkness.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Kurosawa Hikaru walked to the piano.

He gently touched his chest with his hand, turned off the headset, and slowly sat down.

The first piano piece he was going to play, without a doubt, was the Croatian Rhapsody.

This piano piece was his first work as Zero Hour.

Perhaps this piano piece is not the best or the most perfect, but it is one of the most meaningful ones.

He raised his hand, put down his fingers, and the sound of the piano began.

"It's Croatian Rhapsody."

With just a few key notes, fans recognized the track almost instinctively.

This song is so familiar. As the initial starting point, many people have been playing it on loop for many days and nights.

For some songs, just listening to the prelude is enough to touch the soul.

However, as the prelude sounded and the main show began, people suddenly felt a little strange.

Because of this song, many people have listened to it hundreds of times... and can even hum the melody with their eyes closed.

But at this moment, this song seemed to be endowed with a soul, and that tragic feeling came over me.

"Is this the scene of Master Zero Hour?"

“The audio-visual effect is much better than the MV on YouTube…”

Fans who came to the scene for the first time were just stunned.

In their eyes, Zero Hour on the stage seemed to have transformed into the eye of a typhoon, with a swift and terrifying wind of war sweeping across the entire venue.

"Senior's piano skills have improved again... His talent is too exaggerated."

Under the stage, Miki Baiyu, who was sitting in the super VIP seat, looked at the figure on the stage in great surprise.

Figure skating is closely related to pure music. In order to perform better, she understands music and has some knowledge of various musical instruments. She has listened to countless classical music masterpieces.

Precisely because she understood music, she could feel very clearly how formidable her senior's piano skills were.

What kind of realm and height is that... reaching perfection

She had a feeling that looking around the world, or even in history, there was probably no one who could compare with her senior in the field of piano.

At this moment, everyone's soul and heart were drawn into the ocean of music, and countless scenes appeared before their eyes.

The passionate and high-pitched melody and the bright and fast notes awaken people's long-forgotten past.

That's the failure that everyone goes through... and the rise that everyone goes through.

It is no exaggeration to say that every fan who can come to the scene is either rich or noble.

Because of this, they were all defeated, but no one was defeated, but stood up.

Looking back, people remembered a lot.

This song is very passionate and can inspire people's fighting spirit.

Of course, it also reminds people of past failures and evokes the regrets hidden in their hearts.

"I don't know how she is now..."

Some people remembered the girl who stayed by their side when they were penniless, couldn't even take out 100,000 yen from their pocket, and had trouble even renting a house.

"I should have visited my hometown more often..."

Some people remembered their mother who was waiting for them to return to their hometown but concealed her illness so that they could work hard in Tokyo without any worries.

A piano piece, a piece of music is too short.

However, when the piano music ended, many people in the audience burst into tears without realizing it.

The emotions contained in this piano piece are so rich and so strong… Although there are no lyrics, it strikes directly at the heart and echoes the words of the past in their ears.

“Pah pah pah pah!”

When the song ended, there were no screams or cheers, only continuous applause and people who were shocked and speechless.

At the same time, a few lines of words appeared in front of Kurosawa Hikaru's eyes.

Mission objectives:

Show the power of the perfect piano and let the world hear your voice, your name, and your deeds.

The Perfect Level exclusive challenge mission: Peak Moment-Piano has been completed.

Mission reward: Hand of Heaven.

"System, exclusive weapon."

Seeing the mission completed, Kurosawa Mitsuru also silently prayed in his heart.

Following his request, a golden ball of light appeared out of nowhere and hovered in the air.

Only he can see this ball of light.

Kurosawa Mitsuru, who was wearing a mask, looked carefully and saw some information and text, and looked stunned.

Exclusive weapon-Hand of Heaven

Feature 4: Magical Weapons—The moment the BGM sounds, you’ve already lost.

The hand of nature can touch people's hearts and pull them into the world of music.

"Feature 4 is still so outrageous..."

After reading the introduction of the exclusive weapon, Kurosawa Hikaru can feel its horror with just a little imagination.

Although this introduction seems to be very ordinary... but if you think about it carefully, it is terrifying.

Having said that, there are no monster invasions in this world, and it's not the end of the world, so the super-special power of Characteristic 4 is of no use at all.

After getting a general understanding, he chose to wear it.

The Hands of Nature are actually a pair of gloves as thin as a cicada's wing. When worn on the hands, you can't even see the difference with the naked eye. They are as light as the wind.

If it weren't for the entries and information, Kurosawa Hikaru might not have been able to sense its existence.

The performance resumed, and the second piece was "Liszt's Bells", or more precisely, "The Bells at Zero Hour".

The moment the bell rang, the true sound of nature arrived, and everyone seemed to have entered the world of music.

People have entered a state of selflessness and even put aside all distractions.

Although many people know that the protagonist of tonight is Midnight, they are also very concerned about the existence of Adeline and the blonde bride.

But at this moment, everyone forgot their existence.

“Thank you all for watching the show tonight.”

Finally, Kurosawa Hikaru stood up, stood in the center of the stage, bowed to all the audience and cameras, and took his bow.

At this moment, everyone came back to their senses.

"What's going on?"

“Is this the end?”

"I've seen this scene before... Is it time travel?"

When people realized the situation, they were shocked.

"Oh my god, it's 10 o'clock already? Is the show over?"

At this moment, someone subconsciously raised his wrist to look at his watch and was so shocked that he lost his voice.

“Is this true or false?”

"A two-hour performance is over just like that?"

Once these words were spoken, they caused a huge uproar and people were shocked.

Then, people subconsciously recalled what had happened in the past two hours.

With this memory, the concert hall fell into dead silence.

It would be better if we didn't recall it, but this memory makes people unable to extricate themselves and immerse themselves in it.

"Croatian Rhapsody" made them see the ruins filled with smoke and the tragic pain of war.

"The Bells" allowed them to see the magnificent palace of ancient times with thousands of bells ringing.

"Flight of the Bumblebee" allowed them to see the passionate, violent wild bees filling the sky.

"The Mark of Rain" They saw a starry night and a sudden heavy rain.

"Anne of Wonderland" let them see the real wonderland.

"Adeline at the Water's Edge" allowed them to see the fairy by the water.

"Autumn Whispers" allows them to see the courtyard full of maple leaves and the whispers of beautiful love.

“Dance of Flowers” allows them to see hundreds of flowers blooming and dancing a dreamy dance.

"Dream Wedding" allows them to see the wedding they desire most in their hearts.

"Canon Variations", what exactly I saw cannot be described in words, and everyone recalls it differently.

Because the greatest charm of Canon lies in the fact that you can hear calmness when you are sad, and happiness when you are happy. It seems that all kinds of scenes in the world are contained in this song, making the soul happy.

Perfect performance, perfect ending.

Thinking back to tonight's performance, people realized that they had actually forgotten the passage of time.

This is a feast and also the ultimate enjoyment, as if the soul is sublimated by it.

Off the stage and in the audience, everyone has different feelings.

"Brother Guang..."

Yuki Ichinose stared at the figure on the stage, unable to take her eyes off him, with deep love for him.

"Kurosawa, you're awesome."

Ninomiya Chizuru looked at Kurosawa Hikaru's figure and felt extremely proud.

"Senior..."

Miki Baiyu looked at the figure as if he saw the light of divinity and was filled with admiration.

"A Guang, you are so handsome..."

Shifengyuan's body and mind were lost in it.

"Kurosawa, I love you so much."

Igarashi Runa is not very familiar with piano, but when she recalled the performance, she felt that it was unprecedented and her eyes were extremely enthusiastic.

After giving everyone the most perfect performance, Kurosawa Hikaru saluted, turned around and walked behind the scenes.

With his departure, the show is over.

Everyone was sitting there, savoring the experience, still wanting more, and extremely enthusiastic.

However, no one dared to stop it, or ask for another song to be played.

Because the figure was so tall, it looked majestic and sacred, like a god.

Being called the God of Piano is a title that he deserves.

"I saw on the news that Zero Hour Master is going to release an album, and I definitely want to buy it as soon as possible."

"Physical album, digital album, I want to buy a thousand copies!"

"For next month's show, even if a ticket costs one million, I will buy it."

“This performance… is something I will never forget.”

People's thoughts and feelings are all about wanting to follow in his footsteps, longing to hear the ultimate heavenly sound again.

As people talked and sighed, more than ten minutes passed before the first person left.

At the same time, Igarashi Runa walked out from the backstage.

She went straight to Shihouin Mirai, and after being stopped by the maid, she said a few words and found Ichinose Yuki again.

Finally, she found Miki Shiraha.

"Ms. Miki."

"Yes, what can I do for you?"

Miki Baiyu, who was about to leave, was a little confused when he saw her stop him.

She knew who this person was, Runa Igarashi, Reiji's agent.

"Can you come with me? The five of us can meet and talk about something."

Igarashi Runa extended the invitation.

"Five people?"

Miki Baiyu was a little surprised when he heard the invitation.

"Five people."

Igarashi Runa nodded.

"So the fourth person is her?"

Miki Baiyu looked up at her and was aware of her beauty.

"Okay, please lead the way."

Although Miki Baiyu felt guilty, he nodded and agreed after thinking about it.

What needs to be faced will have to be faced sooner or later. As an athlete, the most important spirit is to not be afraid of difficulties.
