That is to say, but as long as they think that the terrible killer may return to this church anytime and anywhere, several people can't help speeding up the pace of searching this small church. They rummaged through the chairs or corners of the church one by one, hoping What valuable clues can be obtained.

Mu Qin walked to the stage of the church, which is a small stage, usually used by the clergy to speak on the stage, and occasionally some nuns singing group will be invited to stand on it to sing carols, so this stage On it was a musical instrument—a piano.

Almost everything of value in the abandoned orphanage has been removed, but this obviously valuable piano is still here as if it has been forgotten, it is pitch black and has been painted with a layer of gloss His body was covered with a thick layer of dust. Mu Qin approached it and touched the piano cover with his fingers, leaving clear five-fingerprints on it.

Then Mu Qin opened the piano cover. Under the cover are black and white keys. With the protection of the piano cover, they are well protected. Mu Qin chose the lowest key and pressed it lightly. short sound.

Although it was a very low and short note, the sudden sound of the piano still startled Qiu Zijia and Cheng Guoxu who were searching for other locations. Interested in playing the piano!"

Mu Qin turned a deaf ear to Qiu Zijia's warning, he still looked at the piano with some fascination, because this piano aroused some memories of Mu Qin.

After the death of his adoptive parents, Mu Qin basically lived alone. He lived in an 80-square-meter house left by his adoptive parents, although this house was later occupied by an unscrupulous old uncle and sold to others , but Mu Qin still remembers a beautiful piano in that house, in the study of his adoptive parents.

Mu Qin has no musical talent. He was actually a naughty kid when he was a child. He was full of energy and liked to play everywhere. He caught birds, climbed trees and rolled out of mud. He didn’t have the mood to sit down and study quietly, let alone learning music, which requires patience. matter.

Therefore, the adoptive parents did not force Mu Qin to learn any specialties. They gave Mu Qin a very happy childhood and made him grow up carefree during the years they were alive. Appreciate their upbringing.

Unlike Mu Qin, both his adoptive parents are talented in music, especially Mu Qin's adoptive father, it is said that he once won a piano performance award in a certain world-class competition, and the trophy he got was placed in the study at that time on the bookcase.

It’s just that Mu Qin was young at that time, and he didn’t have much idea of ​​the so-called competitions or awards. He didn’t understand what it was. He just thought his adoptive father played the piano very well. Will get into the study, obediently lie on the lap of the adoptive father and listen to him play the piano.

Thanks to his adoptive father, when Mu Qin grew up, he had a very good impression of those who played the piano. Perhaps it was the cultivation and depth of his adoptive parents...Mu Qin left a deep and indelible impression through music, so every time Hearing piano music, Mu Qin will be deeply attracted by it.

Muchin's first love was met through music.

At that time, he was still a high school student, studying in a key high school in the city. His adoptive parents had long since passed away, and Mu Qin's custody was entrusted to his old uncle, who had nothing wrong with him except that he liked to gamble. .

Although the old uncle has always emphasized that he will not gamble big money and just play casually with dozens or hundreds of dollars, it is obvious that this is a bottomless pit. Soon the old uncle's property was ruined by himself, and his wife and son left one by one. He, when he got Mu Qin's custody rights and the property of Mu Qin's adoptive parents, he still couldn't get rid of this bad habit. He was reluctant to let the property of his adoptive parents be squandered like this.

But Mu Qin is only a minor child. Except for spending money on gambling, the old uncle has never treated Mu Qin badly in life, or beat and scolded him. It is really not easy to get rid of Mu Qin. There is no other way. Qin can only study hard, thinking of being admitted to a good university farther away, away from this unscrupulous old man.

Mu Qin, who studied hard, started evening self-study since the first year of high school. At that time, the school did not force the evening self-study for the first-year students, and they all started from the second year of high school. The students in the school mingled and played with them, and studied with them at night. Mu Qin sat in the corner of the classroom, holding a pile of papers and writing hard.

When the other students were secretly talking small things, passing notes, playing with mobile phones, and other kinds of games in the evening self-study class, only Mu Qin did his homework honestly.

At that time, there was a music room next to the study room of the second-year high school students, and there was a piano in it.

The music specialty students in the school will go to the music room to practice every night during the evening self-study class. Therefore, Mu Qin wrote his papers and homework every night while listening to the beautiful music played by the piano in the music room next door.

As time passed, Mu Qin gradually discovered that the piano player in the music room next door seemed to be getting better and better. It was Mu Qin who was attracted by music and finally couldn't help it one day. He wanted to go to the music room to see who was playing the piano in it.

Mu Qin quickly took action. Taking advantage of the ten-minute break in the self-study room, Mu Qin went to the music room next to him. The door of the music room was closed. Mu Qin didn't dare to push it, so he stood by the window and walked in. took a look.

Then Mu Qin saw his first love, a tall and thin boy.

That's right, boy.

Mu Qin was not sure whether he was gay until he became an adult. Before his first love, he never had any affection for anyone, regardless of gender. But the first person he fell in love with was indeed a boy, and his name was Zhou Yue.

Zhou Yue and Mu Qin are both freshmen in high school, but they are not in the same class. Mu Qin is only in the ordinary class, and Zhou Yue is in the key class. It is said that Zhou Yue’s family is very rich. He is a high-achieving student trained under elite education. He not only has excellent grades in other aspects, but also has a very high quality of music. He has been learning piano since he was a few years old. He has won countless awards since he was a child. Quite a few, it can be called a genius level figure.

The school is very concerned about accepting such students, so as soon as Zhou Yue entered school, he immediately attracted a lot of attention. The principal, director, and teachers of various subjects took good care of him. In addition, Zhou Yue has good academic performance, and he is good-looking. A gentle, handsome, gentle boy, according to some youth campus novels, Zhou Yue is like a glamorous prince on campus.

Mu Qin should have been unable to climb up to such a "Prince Lord", and he never thought about being high up, he was just obsessed with the posture of that person sitting in front of the piano and playing attentively, and would go to the window of the music room every night for self-study Over time, Zhou Yue found out about Mu Qin's existence secretly. Zhou Yue opened the door of the music room and invited Mu Qin in.

Mu Qin still remembered that after he entered the music room, the first thing Zhou Yue said to him was: "Why are you standing there peeking at me?"

Mu Qin was blushed by his question, hesitated for a long time, and then told the truth to Zhou Yue: "The piece you have been practicing is my father's favorite piano piece when he was alive. When I saw you playing the piano, I would... Miss my dad."

Mu Qin has always missed his adoptive parents. For him, the adoptive parents are the guides in his life. Although they are not Mu Qin's biological parents, they have given Mu Qin almost everything.

Mu Qin's answer seemed to surprise the young man in front of the piano. The other party didn't mind Mu Qin's faux pas for peeping all the time. Instead, he talked with Mu Qin and told Mu Qin that if he wanted to hear him play the piano in the future, he could go in directly. Watching from the outside.

Then, Mu Qin and Zhou Yue became friends, secret friends as a matter of course. At that time, few people in the school knew about the relationship between Mu Qin and Zhou Yue, and no one would associate the "Prince" who was the focus of attention in the college with such an ordinary and low-key student as Mu Qin.

But they had a good relationship at that time. Mu Qin would often go to the music room to talk to Zhou Yue during the evening self-study time. They talked about everything, and Zhou Yue would teach Mu Qin how to play the piano. The feeling of his fingers resting on his palm.

It's like an ugly duckling being pitied by a noble and beautiful swan.

They even had a relationship later on, the kind of relationship that intimate lovers have. Mu Qin couldn't remember the occasion of the relationship, but one day, they sat together on the seat in front of the piano in the music room, and Mu Qin watched Zhou Yue play the piano as usual. After playing, Zhou Yue lowered his head and looked at Mu Qin, Mu Qin also looked into the other person's eyes. He saw Zhou Yue's night-like eyes imprinted with his own face. He couldn't help approaching the other person, wanting to see it more clearly, but unexpectedly, Zhou Yue went straight to him. Come over and kiss Mu Qin's lips.

After one kiss, they are no longer friends, but lovers.

That was Mu Qin's first love, a first love that was doomed to be fruitless. This love was not discovered by others, and was not hindered by teachers, parents, or other classmates. ...and never heard from again.

Because Mu Qin has no money to go to college, even though his excellent grades allow him to go to the same prestigious university as Zhou Yue, if he tells Zhou Yue about his situation, maybe Zhou Yue will find a way to support him, After all, Zhou Yue's family is well-off, and Zhou Yue has always liked Mu Qin very much. Zhou Yue is a very good communicator, and he will tell Mu Qin what he thinks without reservation, and tell Mu Qin that he cares about him.

But in the end Mu Qin gave up this idea and chose to serve in the army.

In addition to some self-esteem problems, the main reason is that Mu Qin knew that there would be no result between himself and Zhou Yue.

They are not people from the same world. Zhou Yue has background, status and ability, and he is destined to rise to the top. But Mu Qin has nothing, so maybe he will hold Zhou Yue back, put a gay hat on him, bring him Come all kinds of ridicule and criticism.

So, in the end, I left without saying goodbye.

Thinking of this, Mu Qin sighed slightly, and closed the dusty piano cover in front of him.

In the final analysis, it is also because Mu Qin is very timid. From the very beginning, Mu Qin had the worst intentions to associate with that person, and never dared to expect the possibility of a happy ending, so he finally chose to give up.

It was many years ago. Not only did Mu Qin serve in the military for five years, but he also worked for four or five years after he came out. Now that he is 28 years old, he is no longer the stunned young man who would be addicted to young love. He has matured too much, as if his body parts have been replaced from head to toe, and he has become another person.
