Emenas, Tower of Wind Sound.

"Ding ding dong dong——"

When the door at the bottom of the tower was pushed open, the wind chimes hanging overhead made a crisp sound that echoed in the quiet tower.

"Hello, is there anyone?"

A silver-haired figure walked into the tower and asked softly. The light voice sounded particularly pleasant amidst the tinkling of the wind chimes.

"Aren't you here?" Lorraine Hill held the book in his hand, looked up at the spiral staircase, lifted up his skirt, and walked up step by step.

This is where Mrs. Philia, the former Blue Songstress, lived in the school. The lower floor of the tower is empty and has a relatively large space. It is occasionally used for students to practice dance and chorus. The middle floors are musical instrument rooms.

The upper floors are Mrs. Philia's own living space.

Because it is a holiday, there are not many students in Emenasri, and it has become quiet here.

The wind outside the window occasionally blows up the light blue curtains, revealing the bright weather outside, and some cicadas can be heard in the distance. Walking alone on the wooden steps, Lorraine Hill can clearly hear his own

There was the sound of footsteps and the slight trembling of the wooden boards under my feet.

Although Lorraine Hill has graduated from Emenas many years ago, the furnishings and arrangements here are not much different from those in her memory. Only the scratches and peeling marks on the armrests that her fingers touched reminded this girl.

, time has passed slowly.

When he arrived on the third floor, Lorraine Hill saw many musical instruments placed in the classroom. They were covered with dust-proof white cloth and the ground was covered with a thin layer of dust. From their shapes, they could roughly tell which ones were pianos, cellos, etc.

Harp, and snare drum, etc.

Continuing upward, the fourth floor seems to be a classroom usually used for lectures, but it is not big. There are only about 20 seats, which are arranged very loosely. There are also two pianos placed in the corner. One of them, Lorraine Hill, looks familiar.

It was the harpsichord that Lady Philia had taught her to use.

There are very few such pianos nowadays. In fact, Lorraine Hill has only seen them at Lady Philia's place.

Turning the stairs and going up, there is a small stage on the fifth floor, which can be used for single performances on the top and two circles of chairs below. Because it is relatively high here and the wind is strong, the windows are closed tightly and the air is a bit stuffy.

There is a blackboard hanging in the corner of the room. It says 'June 12th, Song Xia Performance', and below is the name and program list.

——

Anna Luo's "Daffodils"

Xinaya "Moon Sonata Chapter 3"

Hunter "The Gallop of Glory"

Alice "Ride on the Back of the White Dragon"

Hollanda's "Saw Song"

…

Most of them are singing, and a few are playing. It seems to be the graduation performance at the end of the semester. The teachers will grade the students based on their performance.

Turning the stairs on this floor, Lorraine Hill continued to go up to the sixth floor. This is usually a room used by Mrs. Philia to receive friends or talk to students. Unfortunately, the door is closed at the moment, but there is a room through a room.

The scene inside can be seen from the side window.

There is a round table in the middle, with half-moon sofas on both sides. There is also a desk and two rows of bookshelves in the room, so it doesn't look crowded.

Further up, there was the floor where Mrs. Philia lived, but Lorraine Hill noticed that there was no one on it at this time.

Just wait for a while, I guess he will go out by now.

Before coming, Lorraine Hill had inquired and found out that Mrs. Philia was indeed at school, so she was not worried that her trip would be in vain.

After bending and looking at the stairs, the girl blew a little dust, then sat down with her skirt rolled up and her body leaning slightly to one side.

It was quiet again inside the tower, and you could only hear a little whirring of the wind blowing up the curtains.

Lorran Hill has almost solved the problems within the empire, and they only need to leave the rest to them.

You have to let go when it's time to let go. Sometimes if you care too much, you will be disliked by others. Lorraine Hill squatted down and slowly drew circles on the dusty ground with his fingers.

She used to hate adults interfering in her life. Now that she has grown up, she naturally does not want to repeat her previous path.

Human beings are very special beings. If it is not their own choice, even good things will turn into something disgusting under forced arrangements.

Now that witches and sages no longer forcefully interfere with the rise and decline of forces in the empire, everything will rise and fall according to the laws of nature. The old and outdated ones will be gradually eliminated in the tide of the times, and the new things will naturally

will slowly take their place.

The fire is already burning, and all that's left is to gradually spread to all.

There will be a selection process. One end of the scale is reality and the future, and the other end is emotions and memories. They consider putting various things in until they finally reach a balance and then stabilize.

After completing his mission, Lorraine Hill returned to Emenas, a college with many memories.

After waking up, she went through a lot of things. Being the eldest lady of the Chamber of Commerce in Hopelaner was actually not a long time, only half a year. Her real contact and in-depth understanding of the current world was actually completed in Emenas, and here

She also made many friends and partners.

For example, former roommates, Niya, Alena, Letis, acquaintances Bu Mansha, Ye Ling, etc., and Keti who was entrusted to be taken care of by Si Ye and Chris in the second grade.

Recalling the past scenes of having fun in school, a faint nostalgia also arises in my heart.

I don’t know how they are doing now, but I’ll check them out occasionally.

In this way, Lorraine Hill sat on the quiet tower stairs, drawing unconsciously on the floor with his fingers, recalling many scenes in his mind, and time slowly passed by.

The bright sunshine outside the window gradually softened, light red and purple colors appeared on the horizon, and the wind became slightly cooler.

"Ding ding dong dong——"

There was a sound of wind chimes, the door at the bottom of the tower was pushed open, and then there was the sound of footsteps going up.

Lorraine Hill raised his head, slightly arranged the hair beside his ears and forehead with his fingers, smoothed his skirt, and sat down again.

After a while, Lady Philia's figure appeared at the bottom of the stairs.

She looked at the silver-haired girl sitting at the end of the stairs waiting for her, looking a little surprised, and then spoke after a while.

"Is it Lacey?"

She still called the girl by the name she introduced to her for the first time, even though she already knew that this girl actually had many identities.

"Yes, Teacher Filia."

Lorraine Hill stood up, bowed, and then smiled.

"Why did you come here today? Really, you didn't tell me in advance. You have been waiting for a long time, you kid." She still regarded this girl as her student, she said that and then stepped forward to open the door.

"Come on, come in and sit down first, I'll prepare some water and food for you."

Mrs. Philia opened the reception room, put down the books and documents in her hands, lit the small stove in the corner of the stage, and heated up the tea.

Not long after Lorraine Hill sat down, a plate was placed in front of her, which contained peeled nuts and a few candies wrapped in colorful candy wrappers.

After taking off her coat, Mrs. Philia sat on the sofa opposite the girl and asked about Lorraine Hill's current situation.

"Why did you come here suddenly this time?"

"Nothing, I just came to see the teacher."

"Really? But if it's you, it's true. Lan Lier is different. Every time she comes back to me, she always asks me for help." After saying that, she shook her head, seeming a little helpless towards this student who often caused trouble.

.

However, Lorraine Hill could tell that Mrs. Filia actually liked Lan Lier very much. Although Lan Lier had no talent in music, she was Filia's most familiar and familiar student.

Her hometown is Hopelaner, and even after Lan Lier graduated, she would often look for this teacher.

"Haha, Senior Lan Lier actually didn't do anything bad, she was just a little bold." Lorraine Hill said with a smile.

"It's very bold. He used the bell to catch bandits in the desert, sold experimental alchemy creations to the chamber of commerce for concerts, used other people's investment in music preservation projects to tinker with war machinery, and danced on the tip of a knife in everything.

, I think among my students, she is the most courageous." Filia said, holding her forehead.

Lorraine Hill couldn't help but laugh again.

"When you come back this time, will you go back to the empire?" Mrs. Philia knew that this girl had done many important things in the empire.

"Well, I won't go back for the time being. Let's wait until the place settles down. It shouldn't take a few years." Lorraine Hill recalled his estimation before leaving.

The southern border has been fully developed, and the industrial and administrative foundations have been established. In game terms, it only needs to be pushed through. The remaining key is to appease other areas. The general direction will not be

Wrong, but the details may vary from situation to situation.

"Since you said so, it should have been arranged, so I won't ask any more questions." Mrs. Filia nodded slightly. Although she is Emenas's teacher, she is not very good at politics, so she still

Don't make random suggestions in front of this student.

"Now that the work is done, let's take a break for a while. You must have experienced a lot of ups and downs in the past few years."

As he spoke, the kettle in the corner of the room steamed up and made a slight whistle.

Mrs. Philia stood up and added tea and hot water to the cup in front of Lorraine Hill.

"Why don't you stay in Emenas for a while and have some fun? Maybe you can meet someone you knew before."

"Furthermore, I want to check whether you have been idle these years and whether you have continued to practice. The inheritance of our line of singers depends on you." As she said this, Mrs. Philia seemed to have remembered something.
