Chapter 20: Providing Inspiration

Chapter 20 Providing Inspiration

Xu Mo went back to the previous location of the magic performance. There were still many people there, and they were discussing what happened earlier.

“Was the magician captured?” asked someone who had just heard what happened.

“Nope, he burned himself to death. This should be the bad karma that villains deserve,” replied a person at the side.

“These people are too brazen. They fully deserved what happened.”

“Luckily, there was a little brother reminding us, or the consequences would be too dire to imagine.”

No one discovered the true reason for the death of the magician.

“Were the other culprits caught? What happened to the children?” Xu Mo walked over and asked.

“Mn, the majority of the culprits were taken away by the law enforcement team. The children were fine,” a person replied. He also came here later on, so he didn’t know who Xu Mo was.

“Most probably things won’t be so simple.” At this moment, a rigid-sounding voice rang out. Xu Mo cast a glance at the person who spoke and almost immediately, a strange look appeared on his face. This was a middle-aged man with sharp and clear face contours. His eyes were filled with spirits, and he exuded a sense of invisible pressure just by standing

there.

“It’s him.” Xu Mo silently mused. He had met this person before and even fought against him. In the black market, this was one of the two that stalked him. He didn’t expect that this man would appear here as well.

“Things have not been too peaceful recently. Children are going missing everywhere, so you guys should pay more attention,” the middle-aged man said. After speaking, he seemed to have sensed something, and his gaze turned in Xu Mo’s direction. Xu Mo saw that the other party noticed that he was trying to avoid his gaze.

However, the middle-aged man only took one glance at Xu Mo and shifted his gaze away. After that, he turned and departed this area.

There were children missing everywhere?

Xu Mo grew vigilant when he heard this. Who was this middle-aged man exactly, and why would he come here from the black market?

The law and order in the city were definitely not as good as what Elsa had mentioned.

Not discovering anything new, Xu Mo returned to the church.

Outside the white church, clear singing voices of children rang out. The sound was very pure and caused Xu Mo to feel peace, which was something rare to come by.

Xu Mo followed the stairway up and entered the white church. His footsteps were extremely light.

Right in front of him, a group of girls was singing in a chorus. Behind them, there was also another group of girls in a line playing musical instruments. On the right, an elegant-looking girl quietly sat there playing a piano piece. Her timbre of voice was very similar to the piano’s notes.

This girl was roughly the same age as Mia. Her dressing style was clean and not luxurious, resembling some type of uniform from an academy.

Down below, there were many tables and chairs on both sides of the ground. Many people were sitting there quietly and listening. Among them, there were some girls who knew music and some parents who came here to support their children. Other than them, the rest were people who came to pray.

Elsa and Mia sat in seats that were near the back. Hence, Xu Mo quietly walked over and sat down beside Mia. Yao’er was also seriously watching the performance.

Upon seeing Xu Mo’s return, Mia smiled at him but didn’t say anything. The church was very quiet, and there was only the sound of singing

The voices of the girls were like angels, causing Xu Mo to feel a moment of peace. Ever since he came to this world, this was the first time he was so relaxed. He quietly enjoyed the pure and flawless singing voices.

The music gradually stopped as the singing faded. After that, all the people in the church took the initiative to applaud.

The girl who was playing the piano stood up and walked to the front of the group of performers. The priest passed her a gift that had been prepared long ago. The girl then squatted down and passed the gift to her people below for them to safekeep it for her.

“That’s Miss Irina,” Mia leaned toward Xu Mo and whispered. They could see Irina gently rubbing the girls on their heads. Mia then smiled. “Miss Irina must be a very kind individual.”

Xu Mo looked at Irina. The smile on her face was extremely clear, and it didn’t look like she was putting up an act.

She was the daughter of a city-state representative, so it was very possible for her to obtain a travel pass. If Mia could become friends with her, she might have a chance to head to the Surface World in the future.

After the priest led the girls away, Irina glanced at the crowd below. “A few days ago, I was lucky enough to have heard an extremely beautiful piece of music. Hence, I wish to use this chance today to play it for my friends here. I hope to let more people hear this, and I also wish to thank the creator of this music piece.”

As she spoke, Irina bowed slightly. There was a twinkle in her gaze as she looked below. Many people then walked up to the stage bringing with them different musical instruments. “Mia, it’s starting,” Elsa spoke to Mia, feeling a little excited. This music piece was something she had passed to Irina. Now that she could hear everyone working together to play the music piece in church, she would naturally feel extremely happy.

“Mn.” Mia smiled and nodded. She cast another glance at Xu Mo who was at the side, as her smile grew radiant.

The church gradually quietened down; no one spoke. After that, the music rang out and Irina started playing the piano with both her hands. When the musical notes rang out, everyone entered the beautiful concept within ‘Windy Hill’.

Xu Mo closed his eyes and quietly listened. Enjoying music at different times would cause one to have different feelings. At this moment, he felt exceptionally peaceful. All the distractions were discarded, and he was completely immersed in the music.

Although the ones playing were a group of young girls, Xu Mo still had to admit that their musical skills were pretty high. After he and Mia perfected it to the best they could, this music piece was no longer inferior to the original version.

The only regretful thing was that Mia didn’t participate in playing this piece.

After the music stopped, everyone in the church stood up and applauded. Xu Mo and Mia also stood up, even Yao`er was clapping happily, looking extremely adorable.

Irina and the other performers also stood to bow to the crowd.

“I’ve heard many music pieces before, but this is one of the most beautiful ones I’ve ever heard. I thank Miss Susie and her friend very much. They were the ones who created this music piece.” Irina glanced at Susie and the others at the side who performed together with her.

Upon hearing this, Xu Mo and Mia’s applause abruptly halted. The smile on his face also vanished. However, no one paid attention to their reactions, as they were still applauding warmly, praising this music piece.

Susie and her friends created this music piece?

Elsa was also stunned. She glanced at Mia who was beside her and was in a daze. Evidently, she didn’t know what had just happened.

Mia then looked at Xu Mo. Clearly, Susie had lied and taken credit for this music piece. However, was this music piece an original creation?

Xu Mo said he had heard it from somewhere. However, from Irina’s words and Susie’s action of taking credit, she guessed that it was highly possible that ‘Windy Hill’ was an original creation.

“Mia, I don’t know what happened,” Elsa spoke in a low voice.

“This isn’t my credit alone. I still have to thank everyone who arranged the melody with me, as well as the inspiration provided by my friend Miss Elsa.” Susie glanced over at Elsa’s side and smiled while nodding to her. “In addition, the music piece was also presented by Miss Irina. Miss Irina can also be considered a creator of ‘Windy Hill’.”

She had completely excluded Mia.

Moreover, Susie treated this music piece as a favor, ‘selling’ it to Irina by saying she was part of the creators.

She needed Irina’s friendship very much. Before she came, her parents had repeatedly instructed her that this was a rare opportunity. She had to form a good relationship with Irina no matter what.

For a time, Elsa was dumbstruck, and she didn’t know what to do.

Mia looked at Xu Mo and felt somewhat upset. However, she felt even more anger. If this music piece was an original creation, the creator should be Xu Mo. What capabilities did Susie have to take the credit for it?

“Miss Irina, can I say a few words?” Mia stood up and looked at Irina as she spoke.

Irina looked over at Mia before smiling and nodding. “Naturally, you can.”

“Miss Susie isn’t the creator of this music piece.” Mia looked at Susie and continued, “If Miss Irina doesn’t believe me, you can ask Elsa.”

Whispers started to spread through the church. Was there a dispute regarding the creator of this music piece?

“You must be Miss Mia, right?” Susie asked despite knowing the answer. A kind smile appeared on her face. She then spoke, “I heard Elsa saying that you helped her, providing inspiration together for Windy Hill. I hereby thank Miss Mia.”

After she spoke, Susie bowed to Mia, causing Mia to start, not knowing what to do.

The surrounding people applauded and started praising. The priest also smiled. “God will definitely praise Miss Susie’s intelligence, kindness, and magnanimity. God will also praise Miss Elsa and Miss Mia for the inspiration they provided.”

“This is not the case…” Mia shook her head. “This doesn’t belong to her.”

Numerous pairs of eyes turned to Mia. Susie then said, “Miss Mia, are you saying that you are the complete original creator of Windy

Hill?!

“No…” Mia shook her head.

“My father is working in the city-state parliament, and my mother is a singer. I grew up with music, but even so, I feel that a music piece such as Windy Hill isn’t something I can create alone. Many people have credit for producing this. Miss Mia most probably is also from an outstanding musician-based family, right? Since Miss Mia also doesn’t feel that she is the creator, who exactly is the creator of this music piece?” Susie naturally already knew of Mia’s family situation.

Mia was speechless. Could the daughter of a general store owner create Windy Hill?

Or in other words, would anyone believe that Windy Hill was created by Xu Mo, someone of a low social class whose parents were factory workers?

Seeing Mia lowering her head, many people shifted their gazes away as whispers abounded. It was like they were reproaching and criticizing Mia.

“Jealousy is human nature, as long as you realize your mistake, God will choose to forgive you.” The priest sincerely prayed.

At this moment, all goodwill Xu Mo previously felt for the church completely dissipated. He lifted his head and looked at the priest as he asked, “Has God already told you the truth?”

The priest started and looked at Xu Mo.

“I hope that God can teach you how to differentiate right from wrong.” Xu Mo then looked at Mia who lowered her head and sat beside him. The kind Miss Mia evidently wasn’t Susie’s opponent. He then turned his gaze to Elsa who was on the other side as he spoke, “Doesn’t Miss Elsa plan to say something?”

“I…” For a time, Elsa was speechless and didn’t know what to do. She and Susie were acquainted through their elders in the family. Her father had once brought her to pay a visit to Susie’s home.

Seeing this, Xu Mo shifted his gaze away and looked at Susie. “If music creation has something to do with one’s family background, why would it ever be your turn to create such good music?”

“You are?” Susie looked at Xu Mo.

“I’m a servant from Miss Mia’s household,” Xu Mo replied. Instantly, a look of mocking disdain appeared in Susie’s eyes. However, she didn’t display it. Rather, she asked, “What do you want to say?”

Xu Mo mockingly stared at Susie. After that, he spoke to Irina, “Miss Irina, Miss Mia isn’t good with words, but she is truly a pure lover of music. If you are willing, I believe Miss Mia can provide some ‘inspiration’ for Miss Susie on the spot.”
