710. Lying is useless(2/2)
It is a piece I have never heard before. It has the smoothness of a professional, and the composition technique is a bit tacky. Not only that, the ups and downs of the melody don't sound like it was written for people to sing, but for performance.
He walked in, and the person playing the piano was a young woman who looked to be about his age.
Hearing someone entering, the young woman immediately stopped and looked at him.
Shinichi Iwahashi felt that he had interrupted the performance, and he apologized a little. He stood there slightly embarrassed, thinking about what to say, but it was the young woman who greeted him first:
"Hello guest, do you need anything?"
Iwahashi Shinichi thought for a while and went to see the piano she was using just now. The young clerk introduced it to him enthusiastically. She was full of energy and gave people the impression of a large dog that can suddenly burst into flames.
"The song I just played..." Shinichi Iwahashi interrupted her.
Hearing him mention this, the young clerk's face turned red and said, "You are laughing at this trivial thing." Looking at this reaction, he really felt that it was not good.
"Is it an original song?"
She nodded, then shook her head, not sure if it was yes or no. At this point, she understood more or less that the person in front of her was not here to buy anything.
Iwahashi Shinichi said that his feelings were "as if they were written by someone with a professional background."
The young clerk couldn't help but look at him, "Did you hear it?"
At this time, two people who looked like a father and son came into the store again. Iwahashi Shinichi signaled the clerk to go to work on hers, and he shuttled between the guitars. This store also sells second-hand guitars.
However, the father and son who just entered the store ended up buying an expensive new piano.
When checking out, Shinichi Iwahashi heard his father say to his son: "When you want to give up such an expensive guitar, just think about how much you spent on it - think twice."
Iwahashi Shinichi was listening and wanted to laugh a little. He felt that this father was a wonderful man.
After sending the father and son away, the clerk came to him again.
The two chatted for a while, and Shinichi Iwahashi learned that her surname was Yoneguang, and that this was a friend's musical instrument store where she came to work part-time. When she was in college, she studied in the Department of Classical Composition at the National University of Music in Tokyo, but her grades were always poor and she graduated.
I haven’t engaged in related work since then.
"Anyway, that's it." Mi Guang told him, "So, I came back to my hometown."
Iwahashi Shin nodded, "That's it."
"Are you also a person with a professional background?" She asked in turn, not to be outdone.
Iwahashi Shinichi shook his head, "I have no connection with the word 'keban'. I am a complete layman."
"Liar?"
Mi Guang joked informally and looked a bit mean with his squinty eyes.
Iwahashi Shinichi didn't mind either, "There's no benefit in telling such a lie."
"That's right." Mi Guang smiled after hearing this, with a gentle expression.
Iwahashi Shinichi thought for a while and took out his business card, "However, even though I'm not from a major, I'm still doing music-related work."
Mi Guang took the business card casually - for some reason, seeing her face, he always felt like she would take out a cigarette from her pocket the next second, light it up, and smoke one.
