What is it like to be a wizard in modern times?

"Tan Xueshu?" Uther was surprised when he heard Banxi suddenly mentioning such a person. After all, Tan Xueshu and Banxi are two people who seem to be completely unrelated. "We know each other, but we are not very familiar... Are you looking for her?"

"Well, there is something." Bancy said, "Can you help introduce me?"

"That's no problem." Uther responded readily, "In a few days, my new play will be premiered, and she should come to join me."

Bancy looked at him: Is this unfamiliar?

"It's not a show to flatter me." Uther waved his hand, and his smile faded a little, "This time her son is the lead actor, and Tan Xueshu is a well-known favorite child in the circle, and the premiere will come anyway."

Tan Xueshu's only son, Gao Minghong, is now a Ph.D. student at the Shenshi Conservatory of Music. During his second year of graduate school, he volunteered to sign up with the Muse Troupe as a trainee.

Mentioning Uther's calm and not-so-interested look made Bansy raise his eyebrows, "What's wrong?"

"He's not my first choice." Uther propped his chin, "But I don't have a better choice."

"Huh?" Bancy made a questioning voice, and chose the second choice in the performance. This style is really not a sea witch.

"That character originally had a good solo, which I wrote for another person's voice." Uther knocked on the table, and the record player in the corner turned itself over, and the music jumped in the air lightly and lively.

"A perfect arc." Uther closed his eyes, and drew an undulating line with his fingertips following the first note, his expression was as gentle as if he had fallen into a dream, "I can imagine his voice dancing, I When we first came to the surface, the sun was falling on the waves, and that's how the lights danced."

The sea witch's skin has long been used to the coldness of the deep sea, and it is so hard and thick that he can't feel the dancing steps of the sun, but Uther can hear the sound of the sun in the waves, softly and warmly, gently jumping up and down between the waves. Fall gently.

It was the first sound he wanted to hoard, to hide that sound in a bubble, in the empty shell of a nautilus, where only he could hear it.

Bansy was silent for a moment, his artistic accomplishment was not yet at the level to comprehend Uther's realm, so he could only say: "Then?"

Uther opened his eyes, and the corners of his lips curved back a little, "There is no more."

He threw two sugar cubes into the black tea, and another two sugar cubes, and knocked on the table to make the record return to its original melody.

"That man is dead." Uther held the black tea, expressionless, "I heard him sing before he died."

The end of the song - bang -

At the end of the song, everyone left.

So Uther wrote the solo, and no one came to sing.

Gao Minghong was the best substitute he could find. He was talented and skilled, and his tone was very similar, but the kind of superficial and light warmth could not sing the sense of power that Uther wanted, so he had to delete the solo in the end and put the male Er Ti came up to fill this vacancy, and the performance was just as perfect in the eyes of others, even more exciting than the original solo.

After all, no one has ever actually heard the person Uther wants sing the song, not even Uther himself.

Bansy had to say it again, his artistic accomplishment was really not at the level to understand Uther, so he could only pour a cup of tea into Uther's cup and try to imagine a similar scene to substitute his emotions.

For example... he didn't get the beautiful black cat he wanted to lick, so he could only rely on the train to chat for comfort. The train had no fur belly or pink meat pads, and he just ate his feed in a cool and noble way...

……

Bancy thought he was doing it again.

A Rothbart, it would be nice to have a cat willing to talk to him, how could he have the right to pick and choose peaches.

And Odile, who was watching from the sidelines, didn't know for a moment whether Uther, the overlord who engages in stand-in abuse (?), is more scumbag, or Bencey, the king of the sea who always comes.

In short, it is not a good thing.

Odile struggled in her heart.

She didn't dare to say this brainstorming, otherwise she would be taught to be polite again and again by the lady of Banxi.

……

On the day of the premiere of Muse's new drama "Deep Sea", before meeting Tan Xueshu, Banxi first met Uther's double lover (bu), Gao Minghong, who is his cousin according to blood and age.

"Hello." Gao Minghong was wearing thick stage makeup. Although he didn't know what Banxi, a stranger, was doing backstage, he greeted him friendly.

"Hello." Banxi looked at his cousin. The makeup was too thick so that he couldn't see a little familiarity from Gao Minghong's face, but he could see that the dimples were sweet when he smiled, and his eyes were clean and innocent. Thoroughness is the kind of cleanliness that can only be found in an ivory tower if it is well protected.

Banxi reached out his hand and shook hands with Gao Minghong.

Gao Minghong got acquainted with people easily. He thought that Banxi was a fan of one of their actors, and he left to meet the idol backstage, so he took the initiative to drag Banxi to hide in a corner to avoid being kicked out too much, and then pawed and pawed The mints in the bag were distributed to Banxi and he ate one piece, crunching and chewing vigorously.

After eating the mints, Gao Minghong began to hum and recite the lyrics silently. Gradually, Banxi realized that this guy completely ignored the fact that there was such a big living person beside him.

It was not until half an hour before the opening that Banxi politely bid farewell to Gao Minghong that Gao Minghong flew back from the wonderful music hall. He felt that he took up this fan's time so that he didn't see his idol, so he dragged Banxi to want to know Which actor does he have a crush on? After the performance, he asks for Bancy's autographed photo.

Odile emerged from behind Banshee to take a closer look and let out a loving ga.

Such an innocent and kind-hearted little cutie is really a standard match for body tattoos.

Banxi was almost pulled off the cuff button by Gao Minghong, and said: "Then give me a photo with your autograph."

"Gah?"

Gao Minghong uttered Odile's voice, blinked foolishly and touched his face, and fell into deep thought as the passing makeup artist wailed, "Makeup is gone!"

Just now, did he succeed in gaining fans by relying on his charisma?

"How about it?"

Uther asked with a smile when Bancy sat back in his seat.

"Not much," Bancy replied, "but he's a likable young man."

"He's older than you, and it's not a good habit to pretend to be old." Uther glanced at Bansy, who was too anxious about his psychological age, and then smiled and said to the wife next to him, "Ms. Tan, do you think so?"

He promised to introduce Tan Xueshu to Banxi, and specially arranged the location for the premiere. He sat between Banxi and Tan Xueshu, and left an empty seat for Shilu next to Banxi.

It's a pity that Shili was so harassed by him during Halloween, he would rather comb Angelina's hair in a small bungalow than come to a musical.

Uther glanced regretfully at the empty seat next to Bansi.

Tan Xueshu, who was sitting on the other side of him, didn't know the inside story, and said with a smile: "It's not a bad thing for young people to mature. When they reach my age, they will age slowly."

"Why, don't you introduce me?"

Tan Xueshu made a small joke, and there were faint fine lines at the end of her eyes when she smiled. She couldn't say how warm she was to Banxi, but she also took the initiative to show kindness, which surprised Uther a little.

Tan Xueshu is notoriously difficult to get close to in the circle. Even if he is Gao Minghong's boss, he has not seen where Tan Xueshu's enthusiasm for him is. Compared with Tan Xueshu's attitude towards Banxi, he would wonder if Banxi used something. Charm magic.

Banxi straightened his cuffs, smiled and nodded to Tan Xueshu. Under the dim light, his eyes were pinkish amber. When he looked at him, it was as if the deepest part of his heart had been gently touched.

It's not charm magic, it's just a little trick to enhance the blood relationship.

"This is Bancy Rothbart." Uther said, "Not long after he came back from Country E, the T·Z Art Museum that you said you like very much is his property, Ms. Tan, if you have any good paintings, Kill him as much as you can."

"T·Z is my father's property." Banxi smiled and held Tan Xueshu's hand, "Father likes these things, I don't know much about them, I just take care of them."

"That's why I said that I can kill you." Uther laughed, and talked about a few famous paintings and the art exhibition that Tan Xueshu was holding. After the topic became hot, he used the excuse of getting up for the opening, and left Banxi and Tan Xueshu A space for individual communication.

He didn't want to know what was behind the sudden contact of a wizard with an ordinary person.

Tan Xueshu has already chatted with Ban Xi about Gao Minghong who is about to take the stage. This is the first time Gao Minghong has starred in the A role. Tan Xueshu can't hide the smile on her face when she talks about it. She knows every role played by Gao Minghong like a treasure. He is a proud career fan, and he is a good seller of Amway.

Banxi followed up with a few compliments. He just listened to Gao Minghong's practice in the background. He was indeed a hardworking and talented young man with a bright and warm voice.Bancy didn't understand Uther's advanced judgment, he just thought it was nice.

It's the kind of song that makes you smile when you hear it.

Tan Xueshu liked Banshee very much, and somehow felt that this young man who had never met before was pleasing to the eye, but when they met for the first time, there was an indescribably familiar feeling, as if she had seen Banxi somewhere.

Even she actively wants to deepen this relationship, that kind of urgency is like holding a wind and a handful of water in her hands, and it will slip away from her palm if she makes a wrong eye.

There is a vague and wonderful connection that draws her and Bancy together.

Rarely, Tan Xueshu lost her mind at the beginning of the musical.She wondered if it would have been too abrupt to invite Banshee, whom she met for the first time, to visit her art gallery.She couldn't describe her current mood, and she didn't know why she was in the current mood.

But when the concert was over, Bancy stood with her backstage and waited for the actors to leave. In the noise, she heard Bancy asking her to himself, "Do you know why my father called his art gallery T·Z?"

because……

She thought in her heart that she knew the absurdity in her heart, but a certain answer burst out of her heart, making her eyes widen, and she couldn't help but look sideways to carefully trace the eyebrows and eyes of the young man around her.

"Because his name is Tan Zhou." The young man looked at her, his eyes and eyebrows were all unfamiliar outlines, but they strangely overlapped with another face in her memory.

"Before he ran away from home, his name was Tan Yuzhou."

Bansy smiled and greeted Gao Minghong who immediately jumped up and down to take a photo with him after the curtain call.

Tan Xueshu stared at his back in a daze, with an expression of crying and laughter on her face, tears rolling in her eyes.Gao Minghong thought that his mother was moved by his first starring role, so he hurried over to comfort him, but saw his mother covering her face and holding Banci's sleeve tightly.

Gao Minghong couldn't help but gasp as he slammed on the brakes, and looked at Banxi in shock.

I think you are my fan, but you want to be my father? !
