Sunday morning is the rehearsal time agreed by Liu Man, Li Xiaoru and Wen Fangfei. Liu Man rushed over from home and arrived a few minutes later than the other two.
Entering the piano room, I found that the atmosphere was dignified.
With her back to the door, Wen Fangfei stood in front of her zither, her body motionless, while Li Xiaoru stood on the other side with an angry face, red eyes, and she was about to cry.
Liu Man was in a bad mood, stepped forward, and saw that all the strings of the guzheng had been cut off, and the broken strings spread wildly around like weeds.
Wen Fangfei's expression was still a little dazed and at a loss, she had never encountered such a thing.
"The teacher in the piano room is too irresponsible. He promised us to help lock the door, but he didn't lock it. When we came, the door was open and anyone could come in. We practiced on Friday night, and it was less than two days old. This is what happened to Qin," Li Xiaoru said angrily, "It's all right now, I'm going to ask her to argue."
After finishing speaking, Li Xiaoru walked out, Wen Fangfei came back to her senses, and quickly grabbed her, "The piano room is a public place, and we insisted on putting the guzheng here. The teacher has no obligation to help us, she will definitely do it the other way around." Blame us for not taking the piano away, you have offended the teacher in the piano room, do you still have to practice piano at school in the future, we still have two years to graduate."
Li Xiaoru calmed down,
She knew that as a weak student, offending any teacher at school would not yield good results, "Since you don't want to help, why do you have to promise well? Isn't this just breaking your promise? How can there be such a person, too It's annoying."
"The teacher didn't break his promise. Have you forgotten that she locked the door for us on Thursday night, probably because we left too late on Friday, and she forgot about it when she turned around. You should condemn The person who cut the strings, not the teacher," Liu Man was much calmer than Li Xiaoru, "Besides, there is no point in pursuing the responsibility of the teacher now, the most important thing is to find a way to remedy it."
Wen Fangfei squatted down and carefully observed her guzheng, and found that the problem was not serious. She breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, this person just cut off the strings and did not harm the body itself. Just go to the musical instrument store and ask the master to replace all the strings." gone."
Liu Man said, "The top and back of your piano are made of paulownia wood, and the decorative board is the best rosewood, which is very valuable. The wood is smooth and the edges are covered with pulp. I think it has been with you for a long time. time, you cherish it."
Wen Fangfei nodded, Liu Man really knew the piano very well,
"It is the second guzheng my parents bought for me. It cost 50,000 yuan that year. I have used it for ten years and it is very smooth. I have been reluctant to change it."
Liu Man reached out and touched Wen Fangfei's guzheng. Such a good guzheng was almost ruined. Liu Man said to Wen Fangfei, "I guess this person is afraid of doing too much, and he will be in trouble. If we call the police, he will not only want to compensate your piano. He probably just wants to warn you, don't do it again. Help us perform."
Both Wen Fangfei and Li Xiaoru were stunned.
"Simply cutting the strings of the guzheng is meaningless at all. If an experienced master or we have the materials ourselves, we can change the strings and adjust the tone in an hour or two. But if it is before the performance, come here Then we must have nothing to do. But now, didn’t this person give us a reminder to strengthen our defenses? After thinking about it, his purpose can only be to keep you away from us, otherwise next time, He's going to smash your violin."
Liu Man really doesn't understand the ways of the world in modern society, but he is well versed in the tricks of harming others and framing others. These are the little tricks left over by women in the cold palace.
After hearing Liu Man's analysis, Wen Fangfei laughed angrily. It wasn't enough for this villain to spread Liu Man's rumors to their department, and he even came up with the idea of his own guzheng.
The problem is that she will not take the hard way, the more aggressive he is, the less afraid she is, and she must participate in the performance of Liu Man and Li Xiaoru!
"But we don't need to be afraid of the villain who is timid and only dares to do small tricks behind his back," Wen Fangfei said fearlessly, "I'll take the guzheng to the shop to repair it now, and then we'll come back to rehearse, anyway, today It's Sunday, so I'm free all day."
"We'll go with you," Liu Man and Li Xiaoru said in unison.
When passing by the teacher's office in the piano room, Li Xiaoru gave the female teacher a cold glance. The female teacher was also surprised to see the broken string in Wen Fangfei's hand.
"How did your guzheng become like this?"
"I don't know who it was, but they went in and cut it off while the piano room was unlocked."
The female teacher looked a little embarrassed. She only remembered now that when the three girls left on Friday night, she forgot to lock the door of the piano room.
Liu Man asked her, "Who has been to the piano room on Saturday?"
"There are too many people. Aren't you going to hold an ensemble concert soon? Many students come here to practice on weekends." The female teacher took out the registration book for the piano room, which was densely written with names.
The female teacher couldn't figure it out, even if a student strayed into a piano room with guzhengs, it wouldn't be so low quality that they would break their strings.
Most people, the first reaction must be to understand that this piano room has been occupied by others, so they quickly exit and change to another piano room.
The female teacher has worked here for more than ten years, and this is the first time she has heard of such a thing.
"There should be a surveillance video here," Li Xiaoru asked the female teacher, "Let's watch the surveillance and find out who did it."
"Yes, there is, but I don't have the right to access the video. I have to apply to the school's security department first," the female teacher said. "It may take some time to go through the process."
"We can wait for as long as we want," Li Xiaoru said with enmity, she must catch this insidious villain.
In fact, she and Liu Man had already guessed who did it.
There is a street outside the Conservatory of Music, lined with many musical instrument stores. This street is called Yinyuan Road, and it is very famous in the entire capital. Anyone who wants to buy musical instruments usually comes here to buy.
Wen Fangfei has been repairing and changing strings in a folk musical instrument store for a long time. She brought Liu Man and Li Xiaoru here with ease. The decoration of this store is very old, and the floor is peeling. , and even the top are full of all kinds of traditional Chinese musical instruments, such as guzheng, pipa, erhu, flute, Xiao... everything, although there are many types and quantities, it does not make people feel complicated and chaotic. The division of these musical instruments is regularly displayed, making it clear at a glance.
Liu Man saw the guqin placed side by side with the guzheng at first sight.
