Chapter 101 Steel Strings
In the small library, Heshia sat on a tall chair in a black dress. Her snow-white skin formed a sharp contrast with the black fabric. She held the neck of the violin with one hand and the bow with the other. She closed her eyes and pulled the violin slowly, and the clear sound of the violin rang out.
Because the space was not large, the sound of the violin was not monotonous and distant. One could even hear the slight tremolo on the taut strings and the hard texture like gold and iron. The multiple timbres made the sound more three-dimensional, more tense and more appealing.
In fact, the strings of the violin in the girl's hand were made of special steel wire, not the flexible material that outsiders misunderstood.
The first piece was Canon in D major, which was the song she had practiced the longest. The girl's shoulders and neck moved slowly with the body of the violin. Her slender white hands held the bow, moving back and forth slowly, and then back and forth in a small amplitude, with the rhythm slowly rising.
After the long and quiet canon, she put down the bow slightly and nodded to her partner who had been preparing for a long time. Then Anducia put her hands on the piano in front of her, while Butis sat beside the drum set on the other side and stepped on the timpani rhythmically, and a high-spirited and vital song was played.
The melody seemed to run towards the mountains, jump freely, leap into the blue and vast sky, and then dive down in the wind, with a myriad of scenery.
The sound of the music changed rapidly, and the girl's body swayed with the violin. The long black hair swayed on her shoulders, highlighting the girl's slender and moving figure.
While the music was playing, Dekelabi, who was sitting on a small stool, looked at the simple music score in front of him, and occasionally shook the triangle in his hand to make the music more moving.
The music echoed. In this small library, in addition to the four maids playing in front, there were several other maid companions who sat on the cushions on the ground to listen. Occasionally, they opened their eyes and smiled knowingly at the four people immersed in the music.
Finally, after the song "The Arena" was played, Heshia slowly opened her eyes and breathed a sigh of relief, but also felt a sense of exhilaration. A burst of light applause rang out from all around.
"Danterian is improving faster and faster~"
"Since I came back last time, I feel a little different. Even the performance seems to be more generous and calm."
"Isn't it good? After all, she is growing up slowly. But the shy Danterian before was also very cute~"
Although everyone was just whispering below, Heshia still heard it clearly. She unconsciously turned her head slightly away and didn't look at those guys.
Putting down the violin in her hand gently, Butis came over and hugged the girl. The long wavy hair made Heshia's face itchy.
"Dantrian is awesome~" Butis said in her ear, then let go of her hand, with a look of happiness and pride, as if she felt that Heshia's rapid progress must have been due to her own contribution.
"In this way, it can be considered as fulfilling the previous promise." Even Heshia forgot why she agreed to learn a musical instrument from Butis, but later she gradually liked it and developed the habit of practicing every day.
After the performance, several familiar companions in the store gathered together, sat at a small table, and talked about some recent things, and laughter came from time to time.
"I said that 'Huale' should have prepared a 'Floating Light Jellyfish' as a pet a long time ago. It is not only beautiful, but also can help her do many small things, and even work will be much easier." Butis lay in Andusia's arms, and her emerald hair mixed with 'Andusia's' white dress. Although it was a little messy, it also revealed a bit of lazy charm.
Recently, 'Huale' finally listened to the advice of his companions and went to the 'Floating Courtyard' in the Huanyun Star Region to find a companion pet that suits him.

Related Introduction: A harmless extraordinary creature born after artificial improvement, popular with many people, likes other animals, can understand most simple commands, and has its own moods and emotions. It will be very sad if it is locked in a narrow place. It is best to soak it in water once a day, and it is not necessary if the air is humid.
With this pet helping Huale share some simple sorting, heating and cooling tasks, she has been much more relaxed recently, and she doesn't need other maids to help.
"Although it's a long trip to the Huanyun Star Region, it seems worth it to get this little guy." Huale looked at the jellyfish floating in the air on the table, and occasionally touched its soft and cold body with her hands, feeling a sense of fun.
Because of Huale's light touch and caress, the jellyfish also floated with a light blue halo, swaying in the air, expressing its happy mood.
"So cute (*▽*)."
"I want to touch it too." Several other maids couldn't help but reach out to try, but most of them were dodged by the jellyfish's shaking, and then went around and hid behind Huale.
"It can be shy, its body has turned pink."
Several maids gathered around Huale and chattered happily, while Heshia went to a quieter place on the other side and sat down. Her fingers moved gently on the table, occasionally raising and lowering them. Declabi saw it again and put a small piece of macaron dessert in her palm.
"Would you like to eat it, Danterian?"
"Yes, thank you~"
The light yellow dessert covered with milk chocolate was put into the mouth, and the sweet taste melted on the tongue.
Leaning on the shoulder of 'Frous' beside her, the eldest lady among the maids gently stroked the girl's hair with one hand, and the two talked about some recent things.
"How was your vacation? I heard that you went to see relatives far away."
"Well, it's not that far, but I haven't contacted you before." The girl recalled the scene before leaving that day.
Gu Qianlou stood at the bottom of the attic stairs. He had not said a word when he was facing Heshia before. Now he was about to walk out of the stairs, but he stopped and spoke.
"No matter what happens in the future, you can come back. This is also your home, a place where you can rest and recuperate."
"The things of our previous generation are finally in the past, but you are different..." After saying that, he moved again and walked out of the old attic.
Leaving the ruined Qianlou City, these survivors got on the car to the distance, looking back in the rain. They would build a new city at the foot of a mountain in the North Fourth District.
According to the information, it was a hill with a leeward side. It could use the terrain to build facilities to divert rainwater and reduce the impact of erosion on the city. In addition, there was a river not far from the mountain, which could be used for water and initial industry. It was one of the most suitable places selected by AI to open up a new city.
"Does the second lady have any choice of name for the new city?" someone asked her that day.
"Do I choose?" The girl was a little surprised.
"Well, because she is the second young lady, there is a possibility of a new city, so it is more appropriate for you to choose." The woman holding the recording board said so. She is actually Heshia's cousin, but the two have never met before.
"But I am afraid that the choice is not good or unlucky." There are many taboos in Eastern culture. Although Heshia knows some, she dare not say that she understands it completely.
"Then don't use the profound meanings of the past. In fact, the words we remember are just the words made by the ancients when they were impromptu. It is only after generations of singing and writing that they have been covered with many meanings." In this regard, the cousin is open-minded, perhaps it is the result of being explained in advance.
"Then call it 'Qian Liu', light color and transparent like glass, simple and straightforward, without carrying too many heavy things, light and transparent."
"Qian Liu, it has water and jade, and is accompanied by mountains and rivers. It is indeed a good name... Uh, I shouldn't associate some of the meanings of the past again." She shook her head quickly, fearing that the girl would regret choosing such a name again.
"Then let's call it 'Qian Liu'. We don't need the word 'city' anymore, because there won't be a wall anymore."
After thanking the girl, she wrote the name on a cardboard, which was later recognized and agreed by everyone.
Thus, a new city was slowly built at the foot of the mountain, and many people's lives also turned a new page.
After returning to Arpeggio City, the girl recuperated for two days, recorded what she saw and heard along the way in her yellowed picture book, and then sealed it in a corner. After that, she returned to work at 'Liuli Dream'. Slowly, her life returned to its former state. Until today, she suddenly found that she had unconsciously played the violin to a relaxed and comfortable level.
With the change in her state of mind and after unloading the heavy burdens of the past, the sound of the violin seemed to be more agile, light and free, and she no longer deliberately tried to be fussy. In the process of following her heart, she always kept the pitch and rhythm close, which made her less tense and more free and easy. She could play a piece of music smoothly without any obstruction.
Finally, at the suggestion of 'Boutis' and 'Andusia', this afternoon's small performance took place, and the effect was very good.
"Danterian is really good now. Even if she performs in some coffee shops, she will not be criticized." 'Andusia' commented with a smile, but the coffee shop she mentioned was probably not an ordinary small shop on the street, but a standard she saw in the Double Tree Star Region.
"We have to celebrate today. Speaking of which, Danterian has been in the store for more than two months. Soon, I'm afraid she will have to go to school."
Time flies. Although it has only been two months, Heshia feels that these two months are more complicated and exciting than the previous two years, and there are changes everywhere.
After work, everyone gathered in this small library. After the performance, they sat at the table together to enjoy this happy leisure time. At 8 o'clock in the evening, they left reluctantly.
"We have to go to work again tomorrow." A maid said a little angrily.
"Hehehe, maybe you can ask the manager for leave."
"Taking leave will cost less money, so forget it." She shook her head.
"Ah, no more, actually I'm used to it, I just want to complain occasionally, it would be nice if I could have such a relaxing and leisurely life every day."
"You are missing your retired life..."
"How can you say that..." The two chatted and laughed as they slowly walked away, and Heshia packed up her things, picked up her light bag, and prepared to go home.
"Wait a minute, Danterian." "Frost" called her rarely.
"What's wrong?" The girl turned around, and now she had changed out of her black dress and was wearing a white and blue dress.
"I heard from Madam Isabel about Danterian's future schooling." She nodded.
"I have a sister who is about the same age as Danterian and will also go to Edes Academy in the South District. Maybe you can become friends, and she can help you a lot."
"Oh, this... okay." Although a little surprised, the girl still agreed.
"What is Danterian's communication ID? I'll help you contact her first..."
"Yes..." Heshia took out her personal terminal and reported her ID.
Soon after, a head with a silver leaf pattern appeared on the address book.
"Annelli Shelanhuasi." The real name should be displayed under the head, because there is a certification symbol next to it.
Generally, no one will do this kind of certification because it costs money to maintain, but in some formal affairs, in order to gain trust and show reputation, many people will still go for certification.
"Huh, it's added." Forus breathed a sigh of relief. This seemingly simple thing just now didn't seem easy.
"She is also 16 years old this year. She is very smart and probably precocious. If you don't like getting along with her, you can tell me and I will educate her well."
"Ahem, there is no need to educate her." The girl said that Forus didn't need to be so nervous. In fact, this maid sister is usually a very calm person, but she feels a little abnormal today. Maybe it's because of her sister?
While the two were talking, in the distant Cuiyue Star Region, a silver-gray curly-haired lady was walking on a bustling commercial street. She had curly hair at the end and slender legs, followed by a dozen people in black.
These people were both bodyguards and followers, helping the young lady carry the fruits of today's shopping.
"Well, it's so slow. It took my sister so long to get me a contact number. No wonder I was marginalized by my family." The corner of the personal terminal in her hand had a circular fish bite ring, which she put on her finger and easily rotated. The expensive personal terminal just circled in the air.
Finally, a ding-ling reminder sound came, and a head with the same gray hair appeared on the screen.
"Heshia Tilan..." She looked at the girl on the screen, slowly read the name in her mouth, and stopped turning the personal terminal with her fingers. She
paused for a long time, then took a deep breath, and then exhaled, expelling the tension hidden in her heart before.
"Finally... contacted her..." Holding the personal terminal to her chest, she closed her eyes and recalled.
A month ago, she heard this name at a meeting at home, and then the adults argued with each other, which involved many forces in the Four-Leaf Crystal Star Region. Various visitors and negotiations continued, and it was not until the past two days that it was finally decided.
"You will be the first contact person for Miss Tilan. You will not only represent the Xie Lanhuasi family, but also represent the joint support of our twelve large enterprises and the giant enterprise 'Gray Dust Crystal' for Miss Tilan..." A group of bigwigs in suits and leather shoes sat in the conference room and announced this to her.
And she will also change her previous wishes and transfer to Edes Academy.
Behind every high-level singer is the support of many forces. Even if there is no support originally, as long as the talent and identity show, there will be countless companies willing to become their supporters, whether for brand promotion or political considerations.
Sometimes, just making your company less vulnerable to persecution is a great advantage.
