Stay away from Conan

Chapter 1680 The performance begins

"Since the target of your investigation has been Asabuki Akira from the very beginning, but now Asabuki Akira has chosen to stay alone before the performance, no one can disturb him...

"Don't you think this is suspicious?

"Unfortunately, I always feel like we found out about this news a little too late."

At this moment, Gao Yuan focused on Osuga Shuhei's words just now and focused on what he said about Asabuki Ken's resting alone before the performance, and expressed his thoughts to Shirozuka Hisui.

As a result, Shirozuka Jade couldn't help but pouted after hearing this, and said slightly angrily:

"Mr. Gao Yuan, whose fault do you think this is? If it weren't for waiting for you... Humph!"

At the end of the sentence, Shirozuka Jade snorted angrily, seeming to be complaining that Gao Yuan came late, otherwise he might have known about it earlier, but like now, the performance had already started when he found out.

but--

"This is the end of the matter. No matter what happens or not, at least now that the performance has begun, Asabuki Akira will definitely appear on stage as the conductor. Let's go and check the situation first!"

Gao Yuan replied like this.

Hearing this, Shirozuka Hisui also nodded. It is indeed now. Normally, Asabuki Akira will also go on stage to perform. If he does not go on stage, it will be another matter. But if everything is normal, now we can only wait until the performance is over. , because now it is basically impossible to go backstage to check the situation in the lounge.

In this way, shortly after Gao Yuan and Shirozuka Hisui walked around the door of the concert hall, they found a seat and sat down——

At this point, Gao Yuan, who was visiting the concert hall for the first time, also observed the appearance of this so-called concert hall specially built for classical music.

I saw that the entire concert hall was a long and narrow rectangle, with the stage occupying one short side. It was a very traditional shape.

The ceiling is very high, with a huge crystal chandelier hanging, and the side walls are engraved with very complicated wood carvings, which not only decorate but also seem to improve the sound effect.

Secondly, Gao Yuan noticed that there was another layer above the two sides, with small balcony-style boxes protruding from the left and right.

This structure reminded Gao Yuan of the concert hall in the original "Thrilling Score", but he didn't know what the difference would be in reality between that concert hall and the one he was in now.

But at this moment, the second bell rang——

At seven o'clock sharp.

It's the bell that announces the start of the show.

When all the doors on the left and right of the hall were closed, all the members of the symphony orchestra appeared on the left and right of the stage -

Like violin, cello, viola, flute, oboe, clarinet...

The performers holding various musical instruments sat down in their respective seats, and then, as if waiting for something, they all looked towards the left side of the stage.

In this regard, Gao Yuan and Shirozuka Jade...

Of course, in fact, everyone present was affected by this and looked there, because everyone seemed to know that the person who was about to appear on the stage was the real protagonist of this stage——

Then, I saw a violinist who appeared a little later, wearing an elegant floor-length dress. She was a great beauty.

Immediately, the applause from the scene sounded like a tide——

"Osuga Yui, here we come."

Seeing this, Gao Yuan knew who was appearing now because he had seen the poster——

In this spotlight, the first violinist really shines and looks different.

It's a pity that what Gao Yuan really cares about now is the real protagonist who hasn't appeared yet.

I saw that at this time, as Osuka Yui appeared on the stage, she raised the violin, and at the same time the oboe music also sounded. In line with the melody, Osuga Yui also made a sound, which spread throughout the entire orchestra——

Gao Yuan was a little puzzled by this scene.

“The sacred ritual before playing is considered tuning.”

At the right time, Shirozuka Jade beside him whispered an explanation to Gao Yuan, who didn't understand classical music.

Then, the two of them looked towards the right side of the stage in unison, and saw Osuga Shuhei appearing on the stage there——

“People other than the cast members on stage?”

It seemed that Shirozuka Hisui was a little surprised by Osuka Shuhei's appearance, but considering the specialness of tonight's performance, it didn't seem to be incomprehensible.

But no matter what, so far, Asabuki shows no sign of taking the stage——

Is there really something going on, or is it just a deliberate late appearance?

At this point, amidst the doubts of Takato and Hisui Shirozuka, as a celebration performance for the completion of the new theater, Shuhei Osuga, the person in charge of the new theater, came on stage and began to deliver a speech.

Then, as the applause started and ended with the applause, after a simple speech, Osuga Shuhei walked off the stage, and immediately, the real protagonist was about to appear——

However, no one showed up for a long time.

The auditorium began to commotion.

Seeing this, Gao Yuan and Shirozuka Jade's thoughts were slightly disturbed——

Asabuki Akira hasn't appeared yet?

Is this done deliberately to appeal to the audience's emotions, or...

Just as he was thinking this, as the commotion in the audience reached an emotional point and was about to explode, Asabuki Kei appeared on the stage wearing a black tuxedo and black tie.

Suddenly, there was silence in the audience.

I saw Asabuki brushing his bangs from his forehead with his hand, and after glancing at the auditorium, he slowly walked towards the podium in the center.

Following his actions, thunderous applause erupted from the originally silent audience.

Then, he climbed onto the podium, turned to the audience, and saluted. When the applause became more enthusiastic and then quieted down, Asabuki looked towards Yui Osuga. After seeing Yui Osuga smile back, With a serious expression on his face, Asabuki turned around, slightly raised the baton in his right hand, and lowered it.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the concert hall was extremely tense. Then when the conductor's baton was raised again, stopped in the air, and fell again, "Mahler's Ninth Symphony in D major" was the last piece Mahler completed before his death. A symphony began to play in this concert hall.

It was somewhat different from the symphony in Gao Yuan's impression. The opening of this movement was unusually quiet, and the tune sounded a bit relaxing, which made Gao Yuan, who didn't know classical music, not think it was too noisy.

But soon, all the instruments joined in, increasing the level of tension, and the baton wave towards Fukimon became more and more intense, various string instruments and chords, the low whistle of wind instruments, timpani and then cymbals——

Almost all the audience were immersed in the wonderful music.

But Chengzhong Jade, at this time, gently shook his head——

Gao Yuan, who wasn't very into classical music, noticed this, but he didn't ask any more questions at this time. He just took note of this and continued to watch the performance on the stage.

With the end of the first movement, the concert entered a short break, which seemed to be a specially prepared time to allow those guests who could not make it to the opening to enter. So Gao Yuan noticed that at this time, through the gap in the door, There are about 20 late guests coming in.

After these people sat down and calmed down, Asabuki closed his eyes and raised the baton again...
