Are we ready, Miki? Yes, Nee-san
The siblings are ready to play.
So, what are you playing?
Mariko asks the Matsumoto siblings.
We will play the first movement of Kreutzer Sonata. Is that okay, Miki? Yes!
The siblings said.
Kreutzer Sonata? You two?
Osaki-san speaks up in surprise.
Quiet, they’re about to start
Rei-chan stopped Osaki-san.
Then,
The Matsumoto siblings started playing.
Kyuun!
Miki-san’s violin suddenly vibrates.
We’re drawn into the performance just from that.
That’s not a middle-school performance.
This girl’s amazing.
Tan, tantan, tototouun, touun!
Maki-san’s piano follows the violin.
The quality of their music tells that they’re no amateur, even I can tell.
Then, their music gradually grows intense.
This is too amazing.
The Matsumoto siblings are in perfect harmony.
Their piano and violin compete at a high level.
The intense flood of music coming from the sisters envelops the music room.
Toutoutou, tan, tan
Before long, the performance finished.
We couldn’t move for a while due to the trailing note, but.
Wow, that was amazing!
The choir member who opened the door stood up and clapped.
Everyone also stood up and clapped for the Matsumoto siblings.
I never thought that it would be this amazing It’s a performance that’s over ten minutes long after all Yeah, it surprised me
Ten minutes?
Hearing that from the choir members, I looked up at the clock inside the room in surprise.
True, ten minutes have passed.
I didn’t think that it would be that long when I was listening.
Matsumoto-san, that was amazing
Mariko applauses for the siblings.
Yes, that was amazing. It’s impressive
I said. Then, Marika smiled happily
That was even more than expected
The head of the choir club, Osaki-san, recognizes the Matsumoto siblings’ skills.
Then.
Kreutzer Sonata was composed by Beethoven, but it’s also the title of the novel by Tolstoy
Behind us, from the entrance to the music room.
It’s a familiar voice.
It’s about a Russian duke, who heard his wife and his friend play the Kreutzer Sonata, and he became convinced that they were having an affair
Minaho-neesan?
Pure Love x Insult Complex Chapter 1396. School Festival Day 2 Piano Duet
Huh, she’s. Wasn’t she a teacher in our school until this summer?
The choir students noticed Minaho-neesan.
Err, if I recall, she’s not in charge of any class Oh, so that’s why. Err. If I recall, she’s Yuzuki Sensei
Minaho-neesan’s a mystery teacher calling herself her mother’s family name, Yuzuki, she didn’t have her own homeroom class and she doesn’t teach at all.
Well, Minaho-neesan doesn’t have a teaching license so you can’t blame her.
Oh? Is it that strange for a retired teacher to visit the school festival?
Minaho-neesan’s staring at the choir club students with her cold smile.
No, that aside.
I don’t get it.
Why is Minaho-neesan here?
After Minaho-neesan brought Misato and the other prostitute candidates for the new brothel from the basement of the hotel to our high school by car.
They went off in a car about to do something, that’s why she hired Kudou-papa, and one of the strongest freelance guards, Agrippina-san.
Then, to prove that we’re unrelated to whatever she’s doing.
She called on the national TV just to put us on the noon news.
It’s to establish the fact that we’re in the bakery at that time.
I look at the clock.
The current time is 2:35 in the afternoon.
Minaho-neesan finished her plans in two hours and thirty minutes and returned to the school?
That aside, don’t you all think that performance was amazing?
Minaho-neesan returns the topic to the Matsumoto siblings who are at the piano.
I think that they’re a little too nervous, but, they’re still young so I’ll give that a pass. Next time, you need to be a little more aware of the people listening to you
She gave the sisters some advice.
You’ve been so focused on your inner selves, that if you play with such a tensed mind, your audience won’t be able to relax and enjoy your performance. I know that your music performance is important to you, but don’t forget that to those who listen, they remember it as literal entertainment for enjoying the sound yes I understand
The Matsumoto siblings get swallowed up by the heavy atmosphere Minaho-neesan’s bringing.
It’s the same for the choir.
They know that Yuzuki Minaho’s a former teacher, but this is the first time they had a chance to talk to her so closely and straight to their face.
Well, Osaki-san of the choir club. Earlier, I heard you only agreed to let them use the piano only for one song, but.
Minaho-neesan’s cold gaze looked at Osaki-san.
It’s such a beautiful performance. I don’t mind hearing another piece, do you?
Osaki-san.
O-Okay, just one more piece
She’s pushed down by Minaho-neesan’s pressure.
what should we play?
Maki-san, the elder of the siblings asked Minaho-neesan nervously.
Oh, next time, you two won’t be playing. Matsumoto Maki-san, you’ll remain, but her sister, Miki-san can leave. I’ve seen enough of your talent from your performance
Minaho-neesan’s gaze turned to us.
Takahata Marika-san yes?
MInaho-neesan called her name and Marika trembled.
Play the piano together with Matsumoto Maki-san
Marika and Matsumoto Maki-san together?
Four-handed?
Matsumoto Maki-san asks Minaho-neesan.
Correct. As for the piece, let’s see, why not Mozart’s duet sonatas? Matsumoto Maki-san will be the first player and Marika-san will be the second i’ll only be a hindrance to Maki-san
Marika said, but.
Matsumoto-san’s life depends on it, so don’t drag her down
Minaho-neesan adamantly wants the two to play together.
Takahata-san
Matsumoto Maki-san looks at Marika.
Please perform with me. I’ll accept the result no matter what Matsumoto-san
Maki-san and Marika stare at each other, but Igarashi Izumi’s making a hateful look.
Does she hate the two of them playing piano together?
Are you okay with K.381? Yes
Maki-san suggested. Marika nodded.
The two sat in front of the piano together.
Then, let’s begin
Minaho-neesan said. The two were about to start their performance, but.
Wait
I stopped Marika.
Both of you, take a deep breath, synchronize yourselves
Matsumoto Maki-san looks confused, but Marika figured out what I meant as she had sex with Erica and me all the time.
Matsumoto-san, look at me. Then, let our breaths match
Marika takes a deep breath.
First, take a deep inhale Suu, haa .
Matsumoto-san followed as Marika told her.
Then, let’s speed up a bit. Suu, haa. Suu, haa Suu, haa. Suu, haa
Yeah, they’re matching now.
If their breathing matches, thein their heartbeats also synchronize.
Once again, suu, haa. Suu, haa Suu, haa. Suu, haa
Matsumoto-san’s pale nervous look calms a bit.
Her muscles are less stiff compared to when she played the piece with her sister.
It should be good now.
Then, let’s begin, Matsumoto-san Yes, Takahata-san
Then, the two played piano.
It didn’t have the same sad and painful feeling as the Kreutzer Sonata performed by the sisters earlier.
Matsumoto Maki-san and Marika’s play was bright, light, and flashy.
It’s like a puppy on a leash had been released to the spring meadows.
Maki-san’s piano blended with her sister’s violin earlier, as if the sound comes from one machine, but.
Her play with Marika is the sound of two players on one piano.
