Chapter 9: The White Tower, Shigego

The living room was quiet, and only Shigego was left sitting alone on the sofa, propping up his head in a daze. He felt very confused and lonely, Lan Yue, Anton, and Xinghe had already left, would they ignore themselves in the future?

Shigego didn't know, but he was afraid that something would happen, he didn't want that to happen, and he took out the hard fruit from his pocket, and he didn't know if he had really met a Moro man named Sneve on the ship, and he didn't know if it was really the fruit of the pale tree, which symbolized luck. But if you are, can you teach me how I should do it?

The fruit didn't answer him, even though it was a result that had been expected for a long time, but Shigego was still very disappointed, for some reason, tears came out of his eyes uncontrollably, he took a deep breath, trying to stop the tears, Xinghe didn't like to see him crying.

Suddenly, Shigego heard a woman's voice. He looked up in confusion, he was the only one in the living room, probably he had misheard, he just thought this, the voice sounded again, the voice was ethereal and light, it sounded sad, but it couldn't hear what was said.

Shigego stood up and walked around the living room blankly, after a while, he heard the voice again, it seemed to be coming from outside, he pushed open the door of the living room and entered the main hall, there was no one in the main hall, Anton, Lanyue, Xinghe were not there, they had all left him, Shigego felt a little sad in his heart, he didn't notice, which made the strange voice a little heavier in his heart.

Shigego followed the voice into the courtyard, and under the big plane tree in the courtyard, he saw Anton, and he saw him, but he didn't say hello, as if he was looking at a stranger, and Shigego lowered his head, yes, he was blaming himself, and he deserved it. Chonggo walked out of the Ye family's mansion in a daze, no one stopped him, it was indeed his fault that things would turn out like this, if he could have mustered up the courage to stop Ling when he was in the hospital, if he had the courage to stop him when Jose was about to take Lan Yue away, if he had ......

If that had happened, wouldn't Ling have died? And they would still be dependent partners as before, yes, these were his faults, he could have done better, but he couldn't sit down, he knew he deserved it, but why did his heart hurt so much?

In a trance, Shigego had already followed the voice for a long distance, and he began to take the initiative to approach the voice, and when everyone was away from him, there was such a voice that would accompany him, and he didn't notice how strange he looked now, holding a strange fruit, and walking down the street with blank eyes.

He crossed a road, and a carriage made a dangerous turn to avoid him, and the coachman stopped the carriage and scolded him with his whip, but Shigego heard it and walked on without saying a word.

In a trance, Shigego didn't notice that he had walked from the 5th Ring 4th District to the 6th Ring 4th District, until he walked in front of a huge obsidian stone tablet, and if Xinghe was here, he would tell him that the ancient magic script on the stone tablet was written "Tiangong Academy".

Shigego looked into the academy, and he confirmed that the voice was coming from here, so he walked in, and under the twilight, Shigego walked into the Tiangong Academy, and the guard on duty standing at the school gate didn't seem to see him and didn't stop him.

Shigego followed the sound along the main road on campus, he walked around several school buildings, through the green belt, and came to a lake, where a sign was erected that said "No frolicking in the water", Shigego was sure that the sound he heard came from the island in the middle of the lake, he walked around the lake, and found no way to go to the island in the middle of the lake, he felt a little tired, so he sat down on a chair by the lake.

Shigego was thinking about how he should get to that island, and the voice in his head didn't know when it had stopped, it seemed that he hadn't paid attention from the moment he saw the island in the middle of the lake. He looked at the lake and thought to himself, if only there was a boat. He thought about it, and suddenly a very serious question came to him, why did he go to the source of that voice?

He didn't know where he was now, although he had the impression in his mind that he had come all the way here, but why did he come here, Shigego began to get scared, would he never go back?

The cold wind in the early winter night is biting, especially in the capital, this metropolis near the small star sea always feels the salty sea breeze drifting from the small star sea, in this season, it is a very penetrating biting cold wind, Chonggo left his coat in the living room of the Ye family's mansion when he came out, at this moment he felt that he was about to be frozen into a popsicle by the cold wind, and the snot kept staying, Chonggo knew very well that he should find a shelter that could block the wind now, he looked around, and saw the nearest building to him, it was a round tower, the tower wall was white and smooth, standing on the top of a small hill。

Shigego crossed his arms and shivered, sobbing as he walked along a stone path towards the top of the mountain, the cold wind whining the bare tree trunks around him, which seemed a little scary, and Shigego couldn't help but speed up his pace, wanting to get out of here as quickly as possible and find a warm place.

However, when he walked up to the top of the hill, he felt the deep malice of the world, the top of the small hill had been flattened and paved with flat marble tiles, and in the center of the tiles stood the tall white tower, which was very high, very large, and the white and smooth outer wall did not show any traces of the whitewashed floor, as if the white tower had been dug out of a whole stone and polished, but it was impossible to think about it.

The most important thing is that Jugo walked around the tower with the smooth outer wall and did not find the door to enter, as if the white tower was actually just a huge white stone pillar, and the inside was actually solid.

This made Chonggo feel like he had been tricked, although he was unwilling, but he had to find another place, he walked down the base of the White Tower, ready to leave, but the fruit in his pocket fell out, rolled to the edge of the tower wall, Chonggo looked at it a little itchy, is it because of his own fault, God has begun to punish himself?

He bent down to pick up the fruit, and when he lifted his waist, he unconsciously took two steps forward, and when he looked up, he found himself in a completely strange place, he was in a circular building, a staircase spiraled along the inner wall of the building to the top, and from the ceiling at the top, a light blue pillar of light hung down, and on the floor illuminated by the pillar of light, Shigego saw a lot of strange and small symbols, not only on the floor, but also on the round inner wall, and when Shigego walked over, they even glowed pale blue。

Here, it seems, is the interior of the White Tower?

But how did you get in? Obviously, I just felt the wall of the tower and walked around and saw the door to enter, could it be ...... , Shigego set his sights on the fruit he held in his hand, is it because of it?

With the mentality of giving it a try, Shigego held the fruit and walked towards the wall, without any obstacles, he walked out, and the cold wind that rushed in front of him reminded him that he had left the White Tower, and he hurriedly retreated, so he returned to the White Tower.

It's true?

In order to verify this idea, he changed his direction and walked towards the wall, well, there was a cold wind, he retreated, and then he changed direction, and came out, retreated, and came out, and he started to play, he tried almost all the walls of the White Tower in all directions, and as long as he held the fruit, he could pass through the tower wall unimpeded.

However, after playing too much, the joy and sorrow appeared, and Shigego retreated into the White Tower again, and then when he was about to go out, there was a snap, and he hit the wall. Shigego lowered his head, oh my God, the fruit was gone, he leaned against the wall and searched around, but he couldn't find any trace of it, it must have rolled outside just now.

Jugo sat down with his back against the wall, and he didn't expect that he would be so calm, he was locked up in this tower, no one knew he was here, would Xinghe go to find him, would they worry about him?

He didn't know, but he had made such a mistake, Ling's death, Mr. Balbo's death had absolutely nothing to do with him, maybe he was supposed to be locked up here?" he thought, and fell into a deep sleep.
