spiral
"Is this the backbone of this layer?" Qianhe said as he looked at the pillar standing in front of him.
"Lift............ Yes! It's broken and unusable! Yuri looked at the badly rusted elevator at the bottom of the tower pillar and said in frustration.
"Wait! That place should be accessible to you! The boy pointed to an entrance at the base of the tower.
"That's right!" Qianhu drove towards the entrance in surprise............
Bump Bump Bump! The half-track travels on the spiral access road inside the tower.
"It's also fun to go up in a circle like this!" Yuri said as she sat in the back of the car.
"That's right! Unexpectedly, the original facilities in the tower were all demolished, leaving only the central pillar and the spiral passage of the inner wall of the tower! The boy said incredulously.
"How saved! When I saw the elevator break down just now, I thought I wouldn't be able to go up! Qianhu complained.
Kangkang Kangkang...... A heavy crash came from above!
"Senhe be careful! Something is coming! The boy reminded.
"Really! It looks like a big guy, Sen-chan! Yuri said as she listened.
"En............" Chido began to drive the car forward more carefully, paying attention to the top from time to time............
"Bang dang!" A steel pillar bounced a few times on the upper section of the road and struck the side of the car, then fell down with the force of the rebound.
"Oh!" Both Chinohe and Yuri let out exclamations.
"It scares me so much!" Yuri said as she looked at the falling steel pillar.
"I guess the old pillar has fallen!" Qianhu also looked down and explained.
"I guess this was built a long time ago!" The boy said, looking at the somewhat dilapidated and eroded pavement.
"Is this ground really okay?" Chinohe said uneasily as he passed by a small staircase that had appeared due to the sinking of the roadbed.
"No problem~ No problem!"
"You can only say that it's no problem, it's full of dangers here, and I don't know when something very bad will happen!" Thousands of households reminded.
"It feels like it's dangerous everywhere, but it's okay!" Yuri said optimistically.
"I can't understand your brain circuitry!" Chiho was by Yuri's heartless appearance.
"But it can't be helped, can it? Because the elevator outside the tower is no longer usable! This is the only way to the next level. The boy said.
"I always think it's a little thinner than the previous tower, this tower ............," Yuri said, looking around.
"Maybe it's a different kind! Actually, I think it's better than taking the lift! Qianhu remembered the experience of almost being trapped in the middle of the tower before.
"But this one has been walking for so long and still has no intention of reaching the upper level!"
"Yes!" Qianhu agreed.
"If you want to keep turning in circles like this, you don't know whether to climb up or go down!"
"Isn't this just climbing up!" Chiho replied.
"After all, such repetitive circles make it easy to give illusions!" The boy took out two sticks from his bag and handed them to Yuri and Chino.
"What is this?"
"Lollipop...... I made it from sugar and honey that I found at the food production base............ You can cheer up! The teenager explained.
"Hmmm! It's so sweet............" Yuri took the lollipop and tore open the outer layer of paper and stuffed it into her mouth as the boy instructed.
"Whoa! This is a thousand households, and I will help you tear off the paper............ After all, it's inconvenient to drive a car, isn't it? The boy handed the amber candy to the mouth of the thousand households.
“…… Thank you! Chiho blushed and opened his mouth to let the boy stuff the candy in.
"But going around in circles like this makes me miss the same days a little bit." Qianhu said with a free hand and put the candy to his mouth.
"Then let's finish the climb and go back to the old days!" Yuri pulled the candy out of her mouth and looked at it.
"That being said, the sense of danger is increasing as we move forward...... Not! ”
"Chi-chan gets scared as soon as she gets to the heights!" Yuri said as she gently slapped her hand on Chino's helmet.
"It's verbose!" Chiho shouted and opened his hands on his head.
"How can you live even if you're afraid of death!" Yuri stood up and shouted, her voice echoing through the tower.
"Myths." Qianhu said.
"Hmm!" Yuri proudly clasped her hands on her chest.
"It's a lost mystery!" Chiho explained.
Sudden Sudden Sudden ............ The car continued to move forward, and thanks to the candy that the boy had prepared in advance, Chiho was still able to barely maintain his spirits............
"Ahh The road ahead is broken! Qianhu stopped the car in time and looked at the broken and defective road surface in front of him and said.
"Nope! Look at the side. The boy pointed to the side wall next to the car.
"It's ...... Export? Yuri and Chido said in the direction the boy was pointing.
"Let's get out of the car and have a look!" The teenager suggested to.
The girls nodded and got out of the car to the passage outside the entrance.
"It's a circuitous way!" Yuri said.
"Looks like someone built it on purpose!" Qianhu leaned against the wall and said carefully.
Yuri tried to take a few steps on the pathway outside the wall............
"It's okay for people to walk on it!" Yuri said after confirming.
"But the problem is ...... car," the teenager reminded.
"That's right, this guy is very heavy............ That's why I hate climbing up............," Chido said tremblingly.
"Chi-chan! I'm afraid ............ death," Yuri patted Chiho on the shoulder, intending to pour her poisonous chicken soup again.
"Got it, no need to say it!" Chiho interrupted Yuri.
She took a deep breath and finally made up her mind............
"Wait!" The boy said suddenly.
"What?" Chinohe's original courage was almost beaten back to his original form by the boy.
"I guess it's better to strengthen it just in case!"
"Reinforcement............ How to do it? We have neither the materials nor the tools............ "Qianhu said in confusion.
"We've got this!" The boy raised his hand to reveal the bracelet on his wrist and said.
"Ahh For Ishii to make a jetpack! Yuri shouted.
"Can this still be used like this?" Qianhu asked.
"I'm afraid I can't build a section of the road, but it's still okay if it's just reinforcement! Hawkers! You'll see. After the boy finished speaking, he walked to the suspended bridge outside the wall, and used the wall as a material to make iron cables to connect the railings of each section of the road with the wall above, which greatly enhanced the load-bearing capacity of the suspended bridge.
"That should be the case!" Yuri said.
"Well! It shouldn't be a problem to drive it all at once, but you can only do it once! The teenager explained.
"That's enough! …… Let's go! Qianhu took a deep breath again and said.
"Hmm!"
"Come on!" The boy called.
Qianhu pressed the start button hard to start the car, while Yuri and the boy squatted in the body and watched her decisively drive the car into the suspended passage. As the end of the car entered, the reinforced chains began to taut............
"Squeak!" The bridge deck began to show signs of overload, and there was an overwhelmed moan.
"Chi-chan! Get up to speed. Yuri grabbed Chito and put a lot of force on the accelerator.
"Bump Bump Tu Tu!" The roar of the engine of the halftrack is even louder!
"Ping!" At the same time as the car entered the middle of the suspended bridge, the steel chain used for reinforcement suddenly broke, and the bridge body that had lost its fixation began to sink because of the weight of the car............
"Quick! Speed up! The boy shouted.
"Chi-chan! Keep it up, it's coming soon! Yuri turned the throttle harder.
"Ahhh
The bridge deck finally could not bear the weight of the halftrack and began to break away from the wall............ Chiho closed his eyes and shouted and drove forward............
"Ping-pong-ping-pong!" The steel chain used for reinforcement began to break continuously, and just as the bridge deck was crumbling, the front wheels of the half-track finally reached the road inside the towers............
"Haaa......"
"Haaa......"
The girls were gasping for air.
"Whew~~~ Finally successfully came in!" The boy also said after a long exhale.
"We almost fell off! Sen-chan. Yuri looked back at the staggering suspension bridge, which was supported only by a few steel chains.
"Ah............ Scared the hell out of me! Qianhu felt that the strength of his whole body had been drained, and leaned back softly and said.
"Well! As long as the result is good............ However, the way down looks like it's broken! The boy said, looking at the bridge that was no longer passable.
"Yes! Now I can only move forward, and there is no way back! Qianhu said slowly.
"Let's go up! Chi-chan! ............ upward," Yuri said, hugging Chiho.
"Hmmm! We'll definitely get to the top! Qianhu said firmly.
The car continued to move forward............
"It's back to the inside. That's great, Chi-chan! ”
"I didn't expect the road inside to be so nostalgic." Qianhu said with emotion.
"Just as you say that, we're here! The intersection leading to the upper floor............" the boy reminded as he pointed to the intersection ahead.
"It's here...... Is it the upper echelons from here? Qianhu said as he looked at the winding road in front of him.
"It's back to the same path as before! It's a bit dark though............"
"What a nostalgia! All kinds of ............," the teenager also exclaimed.
"Let's go back to the life of sleeping, eating, eating, and sleeping!" Yuri suggested.
"Is that really the case? If you think about it, these things you do every day are also in an infinite loop......" Qianhu said after thinking about it.
"Is that our trip itself a spiral?" Yuri suddenly realized.
“………… Where can you get to such a round and turn? ”
"I guess I'm going to get to the top!" The boy said with a smile.
