Chapter 2763 Witch's Piano Music
Because of the demon's ability to split, a more accurate statement would be that George Kant is a part of the fire demon - Dezast. After all, Shad didn't know how many parts the other party had divided himself into.
"But in this case, the mermaid must know what he is. It couldn't have failed to sense it when it appeared in the lake."
Xia De thought to himself and looked up at the giant tree painting on the wall again.
[So, should we go to Yuewan to ask it? ]
The voice in his ear whispered softly, but Shade shook his head:
"I will not take the initiative to meet it again before I enter the area governed by the Great Witch of Chaos in the Council as Chloe said."
The giant tree in the oil painting is lush and tall. This should be a depiction of the tree in the summer when it is at its most vital:
"But this plan is really amazing. Before this, I never suspected that George Kant was a demon. The doctor described him as a guy with a head full of fire, but now it seems that he is actually quite powerful."
Because he had no idea how many parts the demon had split himself into, and the demon had definitely set its sights on him, Xia De pretended not to have noticed anything and continued wandering around the concert hall.
When he returned to Flora's dressing room, the witch had already changed into a cool black dress. I don't know what brand of softener Miss Bell applied to her hair, but now her long gray-black hair was tied up with a silver ribbon, which looked very textured.
"How about it?"
Seeing Xia De standing at the door and looking at her, Flora lifted her skirt and turned around. Xia De looked at her seriously for a while, then nodded affirmatively:
"Very pretty."
"This evaluation is too simple, please say a few more words."
The witch asked with a smile, not caring about the followers beside her. Shade thought about it, walked up to her and kissed her gently on the forehead. Although he didn't say a word, Flora seemed more satisfied.
Compared to the Moondance Festival Concert, the Harvest Concert in Creekwood is not as famous, but when the performance begins, the auditorium is still full. The abnormal weather since 1854 does not seem to have affected this city in the forest too much, and the so-called "harvest" here seems to have come just like in previous years.
Shade and Miss Bell did not go to the audience, but stayed in the dressing room with Flora waiting for the performance. When it was finally Flora's turn to go on stage, Shade accompanied her to the backstage lounge.
People here all know the famous "Miss Winslet," and she seems to be quite popular among her peers, so there will be no provocative plots that would only appear in storybooks.
When it was Flora's turn to perform, Shade gave her a hug, and then the confident lady lifted her skirt, walked up the stairs, out of the curtain, and walked from the backstage to the main stage of the illuminated Golden Music Hall.
Miss Bell and Shad stood together behind the curtain that blocked their view and watched Flora greet the audience amid warm applause and then sit down at the piano.
The stage was not decorated, with only a single piano placed in the center. After the enthusiastic applause died down, the witch smiled at the piano keyboard in front of her and then reached out to press the keys.
When~
The black dress shone brightly under the soft gas lamp light above the stage, perfectly highlighting her elegance and dignity. The gray-black hair and the shining silver ribbon complemented each other, adding an extraordinary and mysterious temperament to her.
Her slender fingers danced on the piano keys, and the sound of the piano rang out, as if weaving a spiritual painting. Every note was given life by her, and as she played, the air in the concert hall seemed to become lively.
The music was sometimes cheerful and sometimes gentle, making people seem to see elves dancing, chasing and playing in the woods. The lady's performance was superb, and she was fully immersed in the music. Every note seemed to be telling an ancient legend, full of the power of life and the beauty of spirit.
As the piano music became more and more mellow, the lights above the stage gradually dimmed, leaving only a beam of light in the center shining on her, as if a goddess from another world had descended to the earth.
The music at this time also gradually changed from a cheerful melody to a soft and peaceful one, making people hold their breath and see the forest under the moonlight as if they were there.
"Flora named this piano piece 'Third Forest Sonata'. Does this mean that she has composed piano pieces with forest themes before?"
Shade asked, looking at Flora's back through the gap in the curtain. Miss Bell beside him nodded slightly while looking at her teacher:
"Yes, those are also elven-style piano pieces. But the first and second sonatas were written when Miss was young. They are her early works. Although everyone speaks highly of them, Miss herself thinks that the pieces are not that good, so she rarely mentions those works."
Shad continued to look at Flora intently. The girls around him all understood music and musical instrument performances. Even Luvia, a fortune teller whose parents died young, could play the violin. But he only felt an indescribable sense of amazement in Flora who played the piano.
In contrast, although Vanessa had also performed for Shade, her beauty was passionate and unrestrained, while the witch in black dress in front of him was cold and mysterious. Shade wanted to organize some words now and praise Flora after she left the stage, but he couldn't think of anything after thinking for a long time.
Of course, he did not forget the real purpose of this performance, which was to complete the song and unlock the secret of the "Temple of Time". Therefore, although he looked at Flora and communicated with Miss Bell, his senses were still trying to feel the traces of elements and spirits.
But unfortunately, until the last note stopped and Flora's slender and beautiful fingers left the keys, Shad was unable to notice any changes in the concert hall because of her performance.
There was still only one beam of light, illuminating Flora who stood up. It was not until she saluted the audience again that the audience woke up from their dream and immediately burst into a new round of thunderous applause. Although the finale had not yet begun, most of the audience had already determined in their hearts that Flora Winslet's performance was the best performance of this concert.
The artist lady, who is at the peak of her career, will probably continue to dominate this stage for many years, until she gradually retires behind the scenes like Vanessa and becomes a new legend.
And at the moment of applause, the smile on Flora Winslet's face was like the stars in the night sky. Although not conspicuous, it seemed particularly peaceful and quiet to Shad who was watching her deliberately.
“Very good, really good!”
Shade and Miss Bell welcomed her exit. Although this piano sonata was not the finale of the concert, it was the third to last. Next was the symphony of the local orchestra, which required many people to perform, so the three of them made way.
Everyone in the waiting room congratulated Flora, and she herself was very satisfied with the performance. As they walked through the corridor, Shade and Miss Bell kept praising the performance, but when the three of them returned to the waiting room, the smile on the witch's face disappeared:
"Did you feel it?"
"What did you feel?"
“When the performance just ended, I suddenly felt that there was a dark room in this concert hall, and now that dark room has been opened, it feels very strange.
Xia De, a reporter should come to see me soon. It is not convenient for me to leave here right now. Come, I will tell you the specific location. Now you can go and see what the ancient people left for us. "
The location of the opened darkroom was indeed in the area where the deceased Professor Quinto was sleepwalking. It was not the ground part of the concert hall, but underground.
To be precise, it was the basement of the ancient temple ruins, and it was the steam engine room of the concert hall today. When Shad and Miss Danister were looking for clues in the concert hall last time, they had been there before, but Shad was sure that he had not found any secret room there.
But this time, he searched according to the location given by Flora. He used illusion to deceive the workers in the steam engine room, stepped over the heavy pipes, walked on the metal grid floor over the condensation pools, and then he really saw a stone door in the remote southeast corner of the steam engine room that was obviously incompatible with the current basement.
For safety reasons, the walls of the steam engine room were treated with fireproofing and heat insulation during renovation, so the color of the stone door is different from that of the wall. The stone door is turquoise, with a huge tree father emblem in the center, which is a golden tree holding up a dial symbolizing time.
The symbol of the holy emblem was not static. Because the steam engine room was extremely noisy and dim, one had to get closer to see that with the slightest clicking sound, the pointer on the dial of the holy emblem was even moving.
"Unless Miss Danister and I were both really blind last time, there is no reason why we couldn't see this secret door."
Therefore, this door must meet certain conditions to appear, otherwise it will not be found even if the foundation is demolished.
There was no light in this corner of the steam engine room, so the faint golden light of the holy emblem on the stone door was particularly obvious. Seeing that there was no door handle or keyhole on the stone door, Shade reached out and tried to push it inwards, but found that no matter how hard he pushed, the door would not move at all:
"Does Flora have to come in person to open it?"
【Or change your thinking. 】
"For example, this door doesn't actually open inwards, but instead slides sideways to the left or right?"
Xia De answered jokingly in his mind, then reached out and pressed on the holy emblem and flicked it gently, and the pointer actually moved.
