Start By Becoming Mangaka 642 Full Score of Fear 14 (Patreon)

The next day. 

Yuuki and Reiko were in the Domoto Hall together. Both of them were in the concert hall checking the sound of the organ. 

"Yuuki, you didn't check your oboe?" Domoto asked. 

"Oboe?" Reiko looked at him with a confused expression. 

"Shh," Yuuki brought Domoto away and said, "Let's make this a secret, I don't want her to know, this is for susprised." 

Domoto only smiled, "Young is good." 

"How is Fuwa?" Yuuki asked. 

"I'm grateful for you since you told me about him," Domoto said. 

"No worries since you also helped me," Yuuki said. 

"What are you talking about?" Reiko asked. 

"Nothing," Domoto and Yuuki said at the same time.

Reiko frowned but didn't say anything again, 'Oboe?' 

They continued to train until they decided to take a break since the concert would be held in the night. 

"Yuuki!!!" 

Yuuki turned and saw his girlfriends were there, no, maybe there were some of his cousin and friends too, "Hey!" 

Ranko jumped into him and kissed him directly, "I miss you." 

"Me too," Yuuki hugged her. 

Shouko walked toward him and said, "I - I love when I heard you sing and play music." She had been deaf her entire life and his voice was her most favorite thing in this world. 

"Thank you, I will play well tonight," Yuuki said and caressed her head. 

"How is it, have you found the culprit?" Yaeko asked. She had been concerned about him since he had joined the investigation of the bombing incident at the music university. She was wondering why he always jumped into trouble since it was better to manage his company or become a creator since she didn't have to be this worried, 'But maybe it is also one of his charms.' 

"Yes, I have, you don't need to worry and you can enjoy the concert tonight," Yuuki said. 

"I have invited both Satsuki and Machida, is that okay?' Yaeko asked. 

"Sure, you should also ask for Eri to come since there will be her husband and daughter here," Yuuki said.

"Oh, that will be interesting," Yaeko nodded. 

Yuuki continued to talk with them since there was a lot of the number of people it was hard to write the dialogue into this chapter. 

Reiko who saw his interaction with everyone knew that after this concert both of them would be separated from each other. She sighed and decided to rest in the waiting room. She didn't want anyone to see her right now.

"So it was Takumi Fuwa," Conan nodded. 

"Yeah," Yuuki said while resting his back on the wall. 

"How did you know?" Conan asked. 

"I saw his face when he shot my shoulder," Yuuki said.

"....." Conan felt strange when he lost against him this time it wasn't because of the deduction but by only a chance.

"What? Have you been shot?" 

Conan and Yuuki turned and saw Shouko was there. 

"Shouko? How are you here?" Yuuki asked. 

"I - I only want to call you but...." Shouko looked at him and said, "Why didn't you tell anyone that you have been shot?" 

"I'm sorry but I don't want to make you worry, you also know that a bullet isn't going to do anything to me right?" Yuuki said and hugged her.

"Please don't do anything dangerous," Shouko said. 

"I know," Yuuki said while hugging her. He looked at Conan giving a sign to leave both of them. 

Conan was speechless and snorted at him.

---

The concert was almost starting. 

"Reiko, are you ready?" Yuuki asked. 

"Yeah," Reiko answered plainly. 

"What's wrong?" Yuuki asked. 

"Nothing, I want to focus on the concert now," Reiko said.

"Alright, I won't bother you," Yuuki said and sat beside her. 

"..." 

Reiko looked at him and sighed, "Hey." 

"Hmm?" Yuuki looked at her. 

"After this, you have to pack out your luggage in my apartment," Reiko said. 

Yuuki nodded, "Alright." 

Reiko snorted when she heard his answer. 

"Will you miss me?" Yuuki asked with a smile. 

"No," Reiko answered curtly. 

Yuuki felt that his relationship with her became more complicated. He wanted to say something but he was called. 

"Yuuki, let's go," Domoto called. 

"Yes," Yuuki nodded and said, "Please, listen to my song." He opened his bag and took out an oboe.

"Oboe? Will you play it?" Reiko asked. 

"Yes," Yuuki nodded. 

"When did you learn it?" Reiko asked. 

"Yesterday," Yuuki said. 

"...." 

"Just come out of your cage and fly freely with me," Yuuki said and left her. 

'Come out of my cage? Fly freely with you?' Reiko didn't understand what he meant. 

---

The concert hall was packed with people. They were very curious about him since they heard that Yuuki would join this concert. 

"Now that you mention it, I haven't heard what kind of musical instrument he will be playing," Ranko asked. 

"Is he going to play? Aren't he going to sing?" Yukana asked. 

"He's not a soprano, I'm sure he will play that big piano," Akane said. 

"Akane, that's an organ, not a piano," Utaha said. 

"That isn't much different," Akane said. 

"Onee-chan...." Makoto was speechless.

They were waiting for a while until they saw both Domoto and Yuuki come to the stage. They saw a musical instrument that was similar to a recorder that they had placed in the school but more complex. 

"Is that flute?" Makoto asked. 

"Hmm, that should be oboe," Yaeko said.

"Mom? Do you know it?" Shouko asked. 

"Yes, it is one of the most difficult musical instruments in the world," Yaeko said.

"....." 

They were speechless since they had never heard it before. 

"What kind of songs will they play?" Yukana asked. 

"Hmm, it should be 'Liz and Blue Bird'," Utaha said. 

"Liz and the Blue Bird? What kind of song is that?" Ranko asked. 

"I don't know, but it should be original from him," Utaha said. 

Everyone became even more curious when they heard that it was an original work from him. They waited for a while until his oboe's sound echoed through the hall.
