Chapter 219 Karen and Anita
"Two Tones - Phoenix Lawrence"
"Four Tones - Karen Chuke"
"Six Tones - Anita"
Hevinia looked at the three names she had written down and fell into deep thought.
I originally thought that the three notes would take some time to find, but they were all found in less than half a day after I arrived here.
No, it can't even be said to be looking for it. Hevinia hasn't done anything yet. It's more like she offered it to her on her own initiative.
...Is it a coincidence?
If it was in the past, Hevinia might think it was just a coincidence, but after going through so much, it was hard for her not to think too much. After all, it was too coincidental. Putting aside Phoenix, Karen and Anita were exactly the two notes she was missing.
But the question is, if it wasn't a coincidence, who would do this? Send the missing notes directly to her.
What is the purpose of doing this?
Hevinia tapped her fingers lightly on the table, and then thought of a more critical question.
If this is really man-made.
No matter what the other party's purpose was, first of all, how did he know which notes Hevinia was missing?
For Hevinia, after having her identity exposed countless times, she was somewhat numb. She even felt that even if someone suddenly jumped out and pointed at her nose and said, "Don't hide it, I already know you are Yinpu", she would not be too surprised.
However, no one should know the notes she has at this moment.
After all, most of her current notes were snatched from Xize's body, and Xize was killed by Bai Wei, who disposed of the body himself, so no one should know that Xize was dead, and naturally no one would know that Xize's notes fell on her body.
Hevinia also didn't think that Bai Wei would make any mistakes in this regard.
So, is this really just a coincidence?
Hevinia couldn't get a suitable answer for a while, so she asked Bai Wei, but Bai Wei's answer was just "No one can monitor me", so she could only put this doubt in her heart for the time being.
After all, the information she had now was very limited. As for the other two notes, she had not even seen one of them, and she had only chatted with the other one for a few sentences. She knew nothing about the rest.
In this case, let's observe it carefully first.
Helvinia made her decision.
At this time, a "cooing" sound came from outside the window.
Helvinia turned her head and saw that it was the owl her "father" had given her during the day.
After returning to the dormitory, Helvinia hung the owl and its cage on the windowsill and didn't care about it anymore. After returning from Tianqin, Helvinia seemed to have some sequelae, and she was afraid that this ordinary-looking owl would suddenly tilt its head and say to her, "Miss Helvinia, do you want to make a deal with me?"
It's enough for that to happen just once.
Now it was struggling in the cage, and I didn't know whether it was because of the cold or hunger.
Hevinia walked over and fed it some food, and it finally calmed down.
Looks like he's hungry.
Hevinia looked at the envelope tied to its paw and remembered what Ivan had told her during the day, asking her to write more letters home to maintain her image as a good and family-loving girl in everyone's eyes.
Even if Helen's family really needs to do something, it would be best if it was mentioned unintentionally, as a small part mixed in with all the unimportant information.
Apparently, Ivan was indeed cautious enough to have considered the possibility that the owl letter might be intercepted.
So, what to write to that false home?
Hevinia stood by the window and thought. This was not a particularly important issue, so Hevinia was more relaxed.
But relaxing does not mean easy, especially for Hevinia who has no home. This is the first time she has to write a letter home.
…Suddenly, I entered a blind spot of knowledge in some inexplicable place.
What should I write?
A cold wind blew in.
The sound of turning pages of a book was heard behind me.
Hevinia turned around and saw the notebook that Ogg had given her.
Immediately he fell into deep thought.
…
"How was your rest last night, Miss Helvinia?"
The next morning, Phoenix was waiting for Hevinia at the dormitory door.
Hevinia smiled and replied, "Maybe I feel the Lord's blessing. I haven't slept so soundly for a long time."
"That's good." Phoenix nodded, "In that case, can we start working? Karen is already waiting for us."
Helvinia blinked. "Of course, that's what I came for."
"That's great." Phoenix leaned sideways, "Please, Miss Helvinia, Mr. Cullen is waiting for you."
Hevinia followed Phoenix and strolled along the road of College One, observing the performers around them. Then she said casually, "Mr. Phoenix, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would find it hard to believe that College One and College Three belong to the same school in name. Even the way to go back to the dormitory is very different."
"Dormitory?" Phoenix finally remembered something, and then said in an apologetic tone, "Sorry, Miss Hevinia, I forgot about this. The girls' dormitory, if I remember correctly, should be the Music Stairs, right?"
"Yes." Helvinia said with a bitter face, "I was trapped up there for more than ten minutes."
"Sorry, sorry." Phoenix said with a smile, "So how did you solve it in the end?"
"A person named Anita helped me." Hevinia looked into Phoenix's eyes intentionally or unintentionally, "Do you know who she is? I want to thank her."
"Anita." Phoenix's expression didn't show much abnormality. He nodded slightly and said, "It seems that she is indeed in charge of the girls' dormitory."
"So she's just a dormitory supervisor?" Hevinia sighed. "First College is too powerful. A dormitory supervisor is all golden voice. It seems that if I stay in First College, I can only be a cleaner in the future."
"Haha, that's not so exaggerated." Phoenix said with a smile, "Miss Anita is just a part-time dormitory manager. She has another identity."
"What is your identity?" Helvinia asked, "Are you also from the two Taichu families?"
"No." Phoenix shook his head and said, "She is the principal's apprentice."
Hevinia was stunned: "The principal's disciple?"
"Yes." Phoenix nodded again and said, "She is Jinyin, who was brought to this academy from a noble's seed area by the principal himself more than ten years ago."
Hearing what Phoenix said, Hevinia's eyebrows twitched slightly.
The two words "seed area" and "golden sound" are linked together, and it is hard for her not to associate them with something.
After all, the last person to link these two words together was Caesar.
And the next one above is Hevinia herself.
Although her golden voice needs to be put in quotation marks, who knows if the other party will also be able to do it?
With Caesar's experience, Hevinia has realized that she is not unique.
So, is it possible that Jin Yin, who also came from the seed area, could be the next Caesar?
And it was brought back by the principal himself.
While thinking, Hevinia continued to ask Phoenix for information as if nothing had happened: "So, has she joined the Taichu family's band?"
"No, not really," Phoenix said. "She hasn't joined any bands, at least not yet."
Hevinia looked at Phoenix in surprise: "Why is that? Didn't anyone invite her?"
"How could that be?" Phoenix smiled and shook his head. "I invited her a long time ago, but she refused. And as far as I know, the two Taichu families also invited her, but she also refused."
"Is she not going to attend the ceremony?"
"Of course not." Phoenix said, "No performer can refuse the ceremony. According to her, she just hasn't thought clearly about what kind of orchestra to join. I think... maybe she doesn't like us."
Hevinia was even more surprised. "You look down on me? You look down on... the two Taichu families? But apart from you and the two Taichu families, what other bands are qualified to compete for the ranking of the ceremony?"
"Don't say you, say 'we'." Phoenix corrected Hevinia with a smile, and then said, "It's understandable, after all, she is the principal's student. And what the principal has always pursued is not the ranking, but to be able to leave a name in history and forge the eternal Seven-tone Divine Comedy, just like what he did at the grand ceremony twenty years ago. So as the principal's student, it is normal for her to look down on us and the Taichu families who are only after ranking. So there have always been rumors that if someone's goal is the Seven-tone Divine Comedy, then she will join without hesitation."
"I see..." Helvinia thought.
"Unfortunately, there will never be another Seven-tone Divine Comedy. The principal 20 years ago was very close, but unfortunately, it was just a little short. And now, the two Taichu families don't allow it, and we don't allow it either." Phoenix said, "So, no matter how long she waits, she can only choose one band to join in the end."
Having said that, Finnis paused, then looked at Hevinia with a smile.
"So, Anita is also our target. If you can get along well with her, you might as well try to invite her to join us."
"Ah." Helvinia pointed at herself, "Me? I'm just an outsider."
"Anita will like you because you are the Seventh Tone... that is the principal's biggest regret. As the principal's favorite student, she will like you as well."
Hevinia tilted her head: "There is actually such a saying... Then I can give it a try. Of course, you can't blame me if I fail."
"Haha, how could that be." Phoenix said with a smile, "I am already very grateful that you are willing to help."
As they were talking, they had already arrived in front of the restaurant.
A moment before entering the restaurant, Phoenix stopped.
"Miss Helvinia, I saw that you were too tired yesterday, so I didn't finish telling you some things." Phoenix looked at Helvinia and spoke slowly, "But now, before you officially meet Karen, I must explain it in advance so that you can be mentally prepared."
Helvinia guessed something: "Is it about Mr. Cullen?"
"Yes." Phoenix nodded slightly, "Karen's body is quite...special."
"special?"
"Well, you can understand that he has some defects." Phoenix said, "This is related to his background. His father is the young master of the Chuke family, but his mother's background is not very good. Perhaps because of this reason, his body is different from ordinary people, and even his personality is a bit weird."
Helvinia understood: "Is that why he didn't join the band of the Chuke family?"
"Yes, his relationship with the Chuke family is very tense, so he only has the Chuke family's last name, but in essence he is more inclined to be a free player." Phoenix said, "So I was able to persuade him to join us, but to be honest, this is not a good choice, because..."
Before Phoenix finished speaking, a deep voice came from the restaurant: "This is your only choice, right? Hehehe, you still can't change your habit of saying bad things behind people's backs, Phoenix."
Hearing this, Phoenix frowned tightly.
But he did not get angry. Instead, he gave Hevinia a reassuring look and pushed open the door of the restaurant.
Hevinia then saw Karen sitting in the restaurant.
Even though she was mentally prepared, when she saw Karen, Hevinia was still shocked by his appearance.
Karen's body was extremely large, like three adult men stacked on top of each other.
Sitting there was like a mountain.
But if that was the case, it wouldn't be worth surprising Hevinia. What's more important was that there were many tumors on his face, the cause of which was unknown.
What's even more strange is that these tumors are outlined and connected by lines, just like strands of wool penetrating and connecting the preset needle holes one by one.
And those lines...
Yes, the musical notes.
The golden fourth.
…How could there be such a note?
Surprise flashed across Hevinia's face, but she quickly concealed it and said to Karen politely, "Good morning, Mr. Karen."
Karen glanced at Hevinia and let out a strange laugh: "Haha, you have a strong endurance. I thought you would vomit as soon as you saw me. After all, it's breakfast time now."
"You worry too much, Karen." Phoenix said calmly, "We won't do this to you."
"Not really? Haha... Yes, you are people of status. Even if you really want to vomit or want to kill me, you will endure it very well." Karen said sarcastically, "But I'm different. I never have to endure it. What I like most is to see you look like you can't stand me, but have to accept me."
He paused, then stuffed a piece of greasy bread in front of him into his mouth, making a loud chewing sound.
When he had finished, he pointed at Helvinia.
"I've changed my mind, Phoenix," he said. "If you want me to help you, give me this woman... tonight."
