April 25, Berlin, sunny

Fu Diao did not choose to stay in Essen to attend other people's concerts. Instead, he chose to take the nearest ICE train and go straight to the main train in Berlin.

After he threw his personal clothes at his house on Xuandihou Road, he changed into a set of relatively clean clothes and took the S-Bahn near his home directly to the school.

Perhaps because of the sunny weather, there were not many people in the school, and there were not even many people in the piano room.

Faced with such sunny weather, people in Europe, especially Germany and even the Netherlands, would prefer to soak in the sun and enjoy the sun instead of staying in a lifeless house doing those things.

Same practice work.

Therefore, in the Tiergarten Forest near the school, you can see naked men and women lying on the grass everywhere.

A little bit ashamed, they would wear shorts, but those elderly aunts didn't even wear shorts, they just lay in the forest and enjoyed the sunshine.

After Fu Tiao came out of the train station next to the Tiergarten, he bypassed countless white bodies enjoying the sunshine, walked through the forest under the broken sunshine, and arrived near the school.

"Morning! Dio!"

"Morning, Ms. Kate!"

After Fu Tiao smiled and nodded with Ms. Kate, who was in charge of signing in for today's piano room at the school gate, he did not enter the school's piano room directly. Instead, he changed the hand holding the music score to one side and looked at the time on it.

Ms. Kate asked.

"Ms. Kate, can you help me check on the current situation of my teacher Klaus? Is he currently in class or teaching?"

The first class Fu Tiao mentioned was a one-on-one class.

The following teaching was to ask Professor Claus if he had any major classes in the previous school year.

The German and English are not the same.

"Oh, you're looking for Professor Claus, right? Let me take a look..."

Ms. Kate, who was sitting at the counter, instantly understood what Fu Diao meant. She raised her hand to flip through the house usage form beside her, checked Professor Claus's situation, and asked while flipping through the pages.

"Dior, didn't you make an appointment with Professor Claus? You should be able to use Whatsapp to inquire with Claus, or call him. Professor Claus is not a very stubborn person. He has a high degree of grasp of new things.

, it is not necessary to contact via email.”

"Sorry, I just came back from Essen."

"Essen? Oh, by the way, it's April now. The Ruhr Music Festival should be held in Essen. It's a very good festival. Professors from our school are often invited to perform there.

As well as speeches, it’s a very interesting festival.”

After saying that, her fingers paused and found Klas's name. She put away the form in her hand, took out another form, wrote a series of times on it, then handed it to Fu Diao and said with a smile.

"Okay, I have found Professor Claus's information. In about twenty minutes, he will have a two-and-a-half-hour break in Professor Claus's piano room. You can find him during this period."

, but I suggest you not to wait too long. Mr. Claus is not a professor who likes to stay in the room very much, so... during these two and a half hours, he will most likely go out and not be in school.

."

"Okay, I understand, thank you."

"You're welcome. Have a nice day."

Ms. Kate pushed the form in her hand towards Fu Diao, straightened up, smiled and waved.

Fu Diao met her gaze with the same smile, nodded slightly, took the form on the table, walked out, and walked towards Professor Claus's piano room.

Berlin University of the Arts is a very old university. Every staircase seems to have a history of being almost bombed. It seems that through the gaps between the wooden boards, you can see tracer bullets flashing in the sky decades ago, enough to illuminate the entire Berlin.

Fireworks.

Broken, divided, merged, unified.

Countless different elements are vividly displayed in Berlin's architectural complex, which is enough to make everyone confused as to which country this style should belong to.

Fu Diao stepped on the steps and listened to the creaking sound of the steps. Fu Diao even had a slight suspicion that it was because he had eaten too much recently.

Students from the school walked by from time to time. Some people recognized Fu Diao and said hello to Fu Diao excitedly. There were also a group of people who were not piano majors and were not familiar with piano, so they had a little bit of knowledge about Fu Diao.

Strange, just passing by.

Fu Tiao didn't care much about this. He responded to everyone who greeted him one by one, and just ignored those who didn't say hello.

In this way, he finally stood in front of Professor Claus's door and waited quietly.

There was a burst of piano sound in the house, to be precise, there should be two bursts.

It is obvious that two completely different pianos are playing the same piece. The sound source of the piano slightly to the left is slightly weak in timbre processing and control, while the one on the right is completely enveloped in the sound on the left.

On top of the piano, carry it forward hand in hand.

This is Professor Kraus's teaching method, an efficient teaching method suitable for some people.

For those with good ears, they can very clearly feel the gap between themselves and Klaus, and then try to improve it as much as possible.

Those with average ears will not suggest what to do. Instead, they will feel that Klaus's performance is no different from his own, causing some misjudgments of his own strength, thus causing the teaching plan to fail.

Obviously, the person in the room at this moment should be a girl with good ears.

As for why it’s a girl…

The most important thing is Fu Diao's habit and method of listening to the person playing.

That person's playing power was a little weak, and his body was not very tall, about 1.6 meters tall. He couldn't reach the piano and use his strength well.

At the same time, this person's hands should not be big, and he may be a user with small hands. This kind of user will prefer those running-type works rather than Brahms's chord-pounding works.

Fu Tiao just listened casually and roughly sketched in his mind what kind of image the person who was playing should look like.

As the last chord of the music ended, Professor Claus's voice came from the room.

"Yes, it's improved compared to last time, but there are still some details that you need to pay attention to. For example, the staccato section we played before is from bar 78 to bar 95. You will always unconsciously change it.

When it becomes legato, the feeling is completely different, you know?"

"Well, okay, I understand!"

What came out of the room was German. Although Fu Diao couldn't understand it, he could probably make out most of the content.

After all, compared to German and English, the gap is actually not as big as imagined.

And the person who answered was indeed a girl.

After getting up and a series of daily conversations that Fu Diao couldn't understand, the door of the room was opened, Fu Diao stepped aside and got out of the way, and a slightly familiar girl appeared in front of Fu Diao.

Chu Yao, Choyo, the Korean from before, may have another surname, but Fu Diao didn't know.

Maybe Park?

After Chu Yao bowed slightly to the professor in the room, she was about to leave when she spotted Fu Diao standing beside her. Her eyes couldn't help but light up. She bowed to Fu Diao again and said in German with great excitement.

"Dior! Why are you here today?"

After saying that, she was stunned. Just when she was about to switch to English and speak to Fu Diao, Fu Diao waved his hand with a smile and spoke in half-baked German.

"I'm here for class, have a nice day, bye, bye (schoen tag, aufwiedersehen tschuess)"

The classic German Goodbye Three Company.

Before Chu Yao could react, Fu Tiao hit her with a series of combos that made her confused. She just nodded blankly, said "goodbye", and closed the door.

"?"

Looking at the closed door in front of her, she couldn't help but tilt her head, and her mind was filled with questions.

Wait, what just happened? Why did Germany say goodbye to the third company without saying this sentence?

Where can anyone meet to hand in big moves?

This is too... too outrageous. At least say a few words before saying goodbye, right?

Fu Diao didn't know that Chu Yao was looking confused outside the house. He just carefully closed the door and turned to look inside.

Professor Kraus seemed to have expected Fu Tiao to come. He stood at the edge of the piano, looking at Fu Tiao walking towards him, holding the edge of the piano with his left hand, and nodded with a smile.

"How's it going, Dio? Have you just come back from Essen?"

"Well, yes, I was deceived by Lang Liangyue and others to listen to the performances of Lang Liangyue, Kissin, and Arkadi."

Fu Diao smiled and stretched out his hand to pull the chair aside. Just as he was about to sit down, he noticed that Professor Claus shook his head and stepped forward to stop him.

"Don't be so anxious to sit down. Wait a minute. Let's go out and chat. I have been in class for a day and the room is very boring. Let me go out and get some fresh air."

After that, he twisted his neck, opened all the windows in the house, walked to the door, and opened the door.

Chu Yao was still in the distance without leaving, just wandering around wondering what she was thinking.

After Klaus took off a top hat from the hook next to the door, he nodded to Fu Diao.

"Let's go out and talk."

"OK, all right."

Fu Tiao followed Klaus past Chu Yao, nodded friendly to Chu Yao, and continued walking downstairs.

Along with the creaking sound of the stairs, Klaus asked Fu Diao.
