Lorraine Hill picked up the corroded bookcase. Unfortunately, the inner pages had long since rotted and the content could not be seen at all. He also rummaged through other places in the stargazing room. Except for the corroded bookshelves and instruments, there was nothing left.
What did I find? This place seems to be abandoned, or no one has been here for a long time.
After leaving the stargazing room, Lorraine Hill did not go back to his residence, but walked slowly around the Tower Academy.
The first time she heard about Si Ye was in Mrs. Philia's shop in Hopeland. At that time, the teacher mentioned the witch of books who lived in the high tower. In other words,
, Si Ye does exist in Emenas' school. As the principal, although he doesn't show up much, he still handles some affairs.
There are no loopholes in her past experiences and memories, clearly showing that Si Ye, the witch, existed. Even Tidais wrote a letter to herself, asking her to give it to Si Ye after she came to school. Power is the hardest thing to fake.
, Tidaisi, and Keti are all well-deserved Sequence 9. Moreover, Si Ye also gave himself a book that can seal birds. He still has it in his hand and it has magical effects.
All these, memories, objects, history, and experiences tell Lorraine Hill that Siye does exist, and this is real.
But the scenes she saw in the stargazing room were also seen with her own eyes. Those traces were obviously not formed in a day or two. There were clearly visible historical traces under her perception. This was also true.
Now, the two realities overlapped, and a fierce conflict occurred at this node in the stargazing room.
Which one is the fake one?
It was difficult for Lorraine Hill to make a judgment. She still needed more information to support her. Thinking about other acquaintances in the school, the image of the former Blue Songstress, Lady Philia, appeared in her mind again.
It seems that I have to meet this instructor this time.
Just like a student who has skipped classes for a year and suddenly has to see his teacher, Lorraine Hill was actually a little nervous, but he had to go.
She made some inquiries with her students and found out where Teacher Filia's office was, and then walked towards the Tower of Wind Sound by the valley.
At night, the high tower is lit with lights, and you can see it from a distance. The tower is beautiful, and there are beautiful copper wind chimes hanging under the eaves at the top, gently rippling and clashing in the breeze of the valley.
Luo Xier walked inside and went up the stairs. There was no one in the corridor, it was relatively quiet, and there was a sound like piano playing from the top of the tower.
The girl slowly took off the smoke-colored pendant around her neck and put it into her ring. Then she turned her back and untied her hair tie, and her silver hair was scattered on her shoulders. She straightened it out and then tied it up again, but this time
Her style is closer to the way she dressed in Hopeland, more like the eldest lady of a big family.
Recalling the etiquette taught by Chelsea, the girl straightened her clothes and moved forward slowly again.
The attic at the top is getting closer and closer, and the sound of the playing music is getting clearer and clearer, like the gentle vibration of a brass pipe, bright and clear.
She stood quietly in front of the door, listening to the music, ready to wait for it to end before knocking on the door.
The music is long and ancient, and the playing sound is full of nostalgia, which reminds people of the past.
After a long time, the music slowly stopped, and a voice came from the door.
"Come in."
"Yes." Lorraine Hill gently twisted the handle, and then opened the door. The player under the bright candlelight was Mrs. Philia, who had been away for more than a year. She was sitting upright at the piano in a light yellow dress.
On the front, slender fingers are exposed from the white lotus leaf cuffs.
"It's little Lacey, are you finally willing to come see me?" Seeing Lorraine Hill appear, Mrs. Philia recognized her at a glance. She didn't seem to be angry and said jokingly.
"I'm sorry, Teacher Filia." Lorraine Hill bowed his head and admitted his mistake honestly. He was indeed late.
"It's good to be here, but it's a pity that it's late now and I don't have any snacks to entertain you. Come and sit down here first."
Mrs. Philia moved to the side, freeing up a bench in front of the piano.
Luo Xier walked over quietly and sat down obediently before the teacher asked.
"How have you been at school in the past year? Judging from the clothes you are wearing, you must have entered the Temple Academy. Are you afraid that I will blame you for not coming here?"
"No, I was just busy and forgot a little bit." Lorraine Hill gave a lame excuse. She was not a good liar and felt very ashamed.
"Okay, there's no need to be so restrained. Come on, put your hands up." Mrs. Philia asked Lorraine Hill to put her hands on the keyboard. Only then did she notice that there was something different about this piano.
Inside the black and elegant shell is a simple and smooth copper-colored interior. There is a yellowed mural on the opened lid of the piano, and the keys in front of the body have two ladder-like upper and lower layers, and the main body of each layer of keys is
It's black, with a small raised white key in the middle, and the color is exactly the opposite of the piano.
"This is a harpsichord, an older instrument." Teacher Filia introduced, and then asked Lorraine Hill to try playing a few notes. Then a clear metallic vibrato sounded from the body of the instrument.
"Compared to the piano, this harpsichord has a clearer tone, but its sound is not very loud and its range is slightly narrower. With the rise of the piano, few people use it now."
"However, there are a few people who still like this unique sound and retain a small amount of inheritance." Mrs. Philia introduced, while asking Rocher to play a simple melody according to the score to gradually become familiar with it.
A musical instrument.
After a while, Lorraine Hill had almost finished playing, and then Lady Philia asked her to stop slowly.
"Okay, that's it for today. Come back next time to continue studying."
After hearing this, Lorraine Hill put down his wrist on the piano keys, and then asked about the Star Observation Room of Tower Academy.
"Have you ever been there, teacher?"
"I've been there before, what happened?"
"What's it like there?" Lorraine Hill asked again, she wanted to know what the teacher thought now.
"It should be the private library belonging to the dean. There are many bookshelves and books in it. The dean of the dean, Mr. Si Ye, is sitting on the chair in the back. Although it looks a bit incredible, the petite-looking girl is indeed alive.
Where is the witch who has lived for nearly a thousand years?" Lady Philia said words that reassured Lorraine Hill.
Fortunately, this is not my hallucination alone. In other words, most teachers and students in the school still remember what the stargazing room looked like before, but what is going on now.
"Has Madam Filia seen Dean Si Ye recently, or heard any news about him?"
"I heard about it. It seems that someone informed me that the dean of the college is in trouble recently, and all matters within the college will be handled by the vice dean."
"Who informed me?"
"I can't remember who it is. It's strange. I can't remember it." Teacher Filia felt a little confused when she recalled it. She had not aged to such a forgetful state.
, but I still can’t recall the face of the person who notified me at that time.
Seeing Mrs. Philia's confused situation, Lorraine Hill also knew that she could not recall it, so he briefly comforted the teacher and prepared to leave.
"Then I'll go back today, Teacher Filia."
"Okay." Mrs. Philia nodded, but then she thought of something.
"You didn't use the name Lacey in school, right? I didn't find you on the roster." Mrs. Philia's eyes suddenly became sharp, like an eagle catching a chick, looking at Laurence
Er, let her not escape at will.
"Ah, this..." Lorraine Hill hesitated for a moment before revealing the truth.
"I was afraid of causing trouble in school, so I put on a little disguise. Now I'm at Temple Academy, and my name is Rocher."
"You can hide it so well, little Lacey is a bad learner." Mrs. Philia looked at the shy silver-haired girl under the candlelight and said with a bit of doting in her words.
"Okay, I won't pursue the past matters anymore. After all, children have their own little secrets."
"But from now on, you have to come to my place at least once every two weeks, and you can't stop me, you know?"
"I want to train you to be my successor and inherit the name of Blue Songstress."
"I understand, Teacher Filia." Lorraine Hill nodded obediently.
