Chapter 41: The Strange Person

  "Langdi, what do you think of this Lu Li?" Shen Pengjun asked directly as he walked in.

  "Hmm..." Randy's usually smiling face turned serious for a moment, and after some thought, he said: "I don't know about other things, but he's very steady, not like an eighteen or nineteen-year-old boy."

  "Ah!" Professor Shen Pengjun sighed: "After knowing the classic of this 'Summer', I have been paying attention to this child, and also asked him a few times, just like that time when I played this song in class and then called him to answer questions about the structure of the song. His answers were correct, but it can only be said that he is an outsider. Moreover, I have observed him for a long time in class and found that except for basic knowledge, many things in music are superficial, and I don't know how such a person could write 'Summer'."

  Professor Shen Pengjun even recalled that during the discussion, a professor mentioned that Lu Li bought the composition. However, after repeated confirmation, Shen Pengjun was certain that this composition was not bought by Lu Li. Moreover, through observation, Shen Pengjun also knew that Lu Li studied very hard and made exceptionally surprising progress, so later he didn't ask again, but his attention to Lu Li did not decrease, on the contrary, it increased.

  "Teacher Shen, I think you might be overthinking this. The song 'Summer' is actually more about inspiration, and I think Ludi was just inspired at the moment when he wrote it, no need to cling to it so tightly. Anyway, I think Ludi is going to be an extraordinary person in the future, you should focus on cultivating him." Langdi suggested after hearing Shen Pengjun's words.

  For some reason, thinking of Lu Li's calm and collected demeanor when talking to himself made Langdi feel that Lu Li was not ordinary, and would definitely achieve great things in the future, which is why he said so.

  "What you said also makes sense, I was too anxious. Shen Pengjun smiled bitterly: "This kid is really diligent in learning and has made rapid progress."

  Lu Di had no idea that after he left, Professor Shen Peng Jun and Randy had such a conversation. At this moment, he was in the library reading an introduction to some famous songs of this world.

  If it's a famous piece on earth, Ludi won't be unfamiliar with it. Like the top 10 erhu pieces and some well-known piano pieces in the piano world, Ludi is familiar with them. But after last night's party, Ludi realized that his understanding was still not enough. So Ludi took advantage of his ability to memorize at a glance and came to the library to broaden his horizons.

  Currently, the majority of well-known piano pieces are from foreign countries. Although China is very powerful in terms of national strength, there is a huge gap in the entertainment industry. Moreover, the piano itself originated from Western classical music as a keyboard instrument, so the creation of piano pieces abroad is much more prosperous than at home. These are similar to the earth in previous lives.

  Lu Li was able to read extremely fast because of his photographic memory, so when he read books, it basically just looked like he was flipping through the pages "whoosh whoosh whoosh". It seemed like he was only flipping through the book without actually reading it.

  Of course, Lu Li himself knew that he was very serious about it and had absorbed all the knowledge in the book into his mind. But to others, it was a different story altogether.

  Xiao Muro, 30 years old, is the librarian of Huaxia Music Academy. Xiao Muro was also a student at Huaxia Music Academy and had stepped into the entertainment circle before, releasing an album that sold quite well.

  However, in the second year, at a gathering of high-level leaders, she was spotted by the son of the largest shareholder of her brokerage firm, who wanted Xiao Muro to sleep with him. What a joke, how could she possibly do such a thing? So Xiao Muro immediately refused bluntly on the spot.

  The next day, the entertainment circle spread rumors that Xiao Muro was pretending to be a big shot and had an improper private life. Negative news came one after another. It wasn't until a friend in the industry told Xiao Muro what was going on that she finally understood what was happening.

  Xiao Muruo was at that time in her youth and full of passion, although as a woman she was also exceptionally tough. She immediately announced her withdrawal from the entertainment circle.

  Xiao Muro quickly formed a family with a man who was not very rich, and lived a life of teaching children. Although she had already had children, although she was now thirty, the years did not leave any marks on Xiao Muro, still looking so charming and beautiful. Moreover, the current Xiao Muro seemed to have a mature flavor that young girls didn't have, which made countless young men infatuated with her.

  Later, Xiao Muruo returned to his alma mater, Huaxia Music Academy, to manage the library. And every time Xiao Muruo was on duty in the library, the number of people in the library would surge, mostly boys.

  Xiao Muro didn't know about this phenomenon, but he also didn't think much of it. However, this semester, a strange person made Xiao Muro's heart full of curiosity.

  Xiao Muro still remembers that during the military training for freshmen in her first year, this boy often came to the library to read books. What's strange is that the books he came to read were all basic knowledge that every art student should have learned before entering university.

  Of course, it's also possible that they came to review. Xiao Muro thought so at first and soon didn't mind anymore.

  However, after a while, Xiao Muro found that the books this boy was reading were getting deeper and deeper, it was a gradual process. Of course, these were not enough to arouse Xiao Muro's interest. What made Xiao Muro deeply interested was that this boy read too fast.

  Xiao Muro saw that the other person was just flipping through books "whooshing" and didn't seem to be taking it seriously, but rather just finishing each book. But why would someone do something so meaningless? Was he here to see her? Xiao Muro asked herself, but then she realized that this boy hadn't looked at her properly even once since borrowing the books.

  Moreover, Xiao Muro also learned from her colleagues that this boy would come here to read books when she was not around.

  Could it be that the other party's reading speed is really so fast? Such a doubt had been stuck in Xiao Muro's heart for more than a month, like a cat scratching, making Xiao Muro feel extremely uncomfortable, and she must investigate to get to the bottom of it.

  Today, Xiao Muro saw that the other person had come again and was reading a book called "Piano Masterpiece Collection". Seeing the other person flipping through the book with a "rustling" sound, Xiao Muro finally couldn't bear it and decided to go ask this strange classmate what was going on.

  Lu Li, who was engrossed in reading a book, did not know that she had already caught the attention of a charming mature woman, who was walking towards her.

  "Hello, classmate." A pleasant voice entered her ears, followed by a faint scent of perfume.

  Lu Di heard this and raised his head to look at the administrator standing in front of him, revealing a puzzled expression.

  About this beautiful female administrator, Ludi has also heard many of his schoolmates talk about her. Ludi has come to the library to borrow books and seen this beautiful administrator several times, and he also thinks that she is a mature woman with intellectual beauty and a very charming demeanor, no wonder she can attract many schoolmates to come to the library just to take a look at the beautiful administrator.

  But Lü Li was not interested in these things. Although he was also at the age of youth and vitality, Lü Li, who had experienced his past life, naturally knew that indulging in this kind of idle fantasy without any result was meaningless, and it was better to use his limited time to do more meaningful things. Moreover, Lü Li's schedule was extremely busy.

  At this moment, seeing the beautiful administrator come to talk to him, Lu Li was naturally a bit puzzled. However, Lu Li still replied politely: "Uh, hello, is there anything I can help you with?"

  Looking at the other person's gaze that was exceptionally clear and devoid of any color, Xiao Muro felt that the other person didn't come to the library to look for her after all. She said: "I've noticed you for a long time, every time I see you reading, it looks like you're just flipping through the book. May I ask if you really understand what you're reading?"

  It wasn't until he heard the other person's question that Lu Li realized where the problem lay. He had been so focused on studying that he hadn't noticed these details himself. If it was just once or twice, it wouldn't be a big deal, and others might just think he was playing around and not reading books. But if he did this every time, it would be suspicious what he was really doing.

  "Oh, you're referring to this? Actually, I've already studied these things before, so coming here is just to deepen my memory. That's why I can read a bit faster."

  After hearing Lu Li's answer, Xiao Muruo secretly scolded in her heart: "It's not just a little faster, you're not even reading the book, but flipping through it."

  However, Xiao Muro said with a smile: "Really? You read books so fast." Although he knew that the other party must not have told the truth, Xiao Muro couldn't force him to speak, so after saying this sentence, he bid farewell and left.

  Lu Li put down the book he had finished reading today and left the library. On his way, Lu Li secretly warned himself to pay attention to these details in the future, so as not to get into unnecessary trouble. If a second person knew about his ability to memorize everything at a glance, Lu Li didn't know if he would end up lying on a scientist's experimental table, being studied like an alien.

  Many years later, when someone interviewed Xiao Muro about Lu Li, Xiao Muro replied: "Lu Li spent a lot of time in the library. He had learned a lot of basic knowledge before going to college, but he still came to review these basics after entering university. Lu Li is a person who attaches great importance to foundation."

  It is this answer that has led many people in China who looked down on the basics to start learning from the basics again, laying a solid foundation, and also allowing many people to achieve no small success.
