There's definitely something wrong with this script.

Chapter 405 The Cage
"Qilisi, nothing is absolute."

The amber eyes of the traveling poet stared at the girl in front of him, and said seriously: "If you really want to leave this place in your heart, maybe I can help you."

Xu Shuo looked at him curiously: "What can you do to help me get out of here? Alex, you are just an ordinary person."

"I'm still an ordinary person who has traveled to many places, and this castle will not be my last stop." The traveling poet raised the corners of his mouth and smiled: "Qilisi, you might as well trust me, believe me I really have a way to take you away."

"Okay, I believe in you, so what do you want?" Xu Shuo turned to face him, with a smile on his face, and his light voice seemed to carry some kind of guidance and bewitchment.

"Hmm... how to get to that tower?"

The traveling poet paused and said.

Xu Shuo followed his line of sight to the tall tower in the center of the castle, and said with a smile, "We'd better do this kind of thing tomorrow. It's not suitable to walk around in Prague Castle at night, especially to invade my sister's most important territory."

Hearing this, the traveling poet nodded calmly, as if he just mentioned it casually, and didn't get too entangled with the tower.

At least, he already got the girl's heart from this sentence.

The traveling poet turned to ask: "Then another thing, what you didn't finish talking during the day, can you tell me now?"

Xu Shuo turned to look at him, and their eyes met.

"Alex, I can't say it, if you don't want us all to be discovered by our sister."

"Can you take me there?" The traveling poet looked at her.

"……All right."

The girl seemed a bit embarrassed and hesitated for a while, but she nodded, lifted her skirt and took a step, turned around and turned from the arch of the outer wall into the corridor inside the castle.

……

The dark night and the moonlight were left behind by the two of them. The internal passages of the castle were closed, and only the oil lamps hanging on the wall posts could provide vision.

The route of the castle is intricate, but the girl shuttles through the corridors very purposefully.

The dark red skirt was infiltrated by the night even more deeply. When she passed the bouquet of roses, she almost merged with the blood-colored flowers growing in the dark night. Only the pearls on the skirt were reflected by the oil lamp. shine.

The traveling poet followed closely behind, staring at the girl's back, and gently pressed his fingers between the brows.

Kiris... Kiris...

After knowing the girl's name, for some reason, he always had the urge to call it out.

Even when the other party called out his false pronoun, he felt an inexplicable throbbing in his heart. Because he had been talking and calculating before, he didn't have time to capture this feeling.

But now, in this silent castle, only the sound of dull footsteps one after the other can be heard.

Listening to the rhythm of the platform shoes made of velvet falling on the floor, the traveling poet's mind slowly sank, and began to review what happened just now.

Therefore, he was keenly aware that his previous state was a little weird.

So is this girl in front of her really an existence that can be used in this game?

"Alex..."

Suddenly, the voice of calling came from the front again.

The traveling poet looked up subconsciously, and saw that the girl walking in front had stopped at some point, standing at the corner at the end of the corridor with a sweet smile, and motioned to him.

has arrived?

The traveling poet walked over, stood beside the girl and looked around the corner.

There is no passage ahead, and a dark staircase is embedded in the corner door. You can only see a few steps near the door, and the rest are immersed in the deep darkness.

This staircase does not go up, but down.

Seeing this, the traveling poet turned his head to look at the arched window in the corridor. Through the intricate carvings, he could faintly see the scenery outside, as well as the castle tower that was almost at the same level as his sight.

He remembered that they had been going up just now.

As a result, the stairs in this door, looking at the slope, are almost vertically downwards. With the height of the entire castle, the length of this staircase can already be estimated.

So what the girl wanted to say before was not "upstairs" but "downstairs"?
Hmm... It's really strange.

The traveling poet thought for a long time in disbelief.

Seeing the girl in front of him staring at him intently, he thought for a while and said, "The architect who designed this castle is really a genius. He should have thought more about the platform shoes on the ladies' feet."

So why not just place the descending stairs on the first floor?

After reaching the highest floor, I have to spend my time going down the stairs to the bottom floor again. I am really full and have nothing to do.

"Puchi..."

The girl smiled because of his complaint.

Xu Shuo raised the corners of his mouth slightly, turned around and walked back after showing him, and said, "You just need to remember this place. Usually no one will come here, except my sister."

The traveling poet stared at the door, patted the wall calmly, and stuck a small thing on it.

Then he turned around to keep up with the girl's walking back, and asked, "Is it dangerous inside?"

"If you hadn't... met my sister, there shouldn't be any danger. It's not convenient for me to say what it is, but it is a very important place for my sister." Xu Shuo said hesitantly.

"More important than that tower?"

"Although I haven't been to the tower, there should be nothing important there. After all, it's just my sister's residence. I don't think any lady would like someone to break into her room."

"emmm..."

The traveling poet looks like he wants to break out.

The tower and the door with stairs are almost parallel, and the distance is not far away, but there is no connecting passage between the two, not even the flying buttress connecting the outer wall, they seem to be independent of each other of two places.

However, they are equally mysterious, secretive, and not far away.

So there must be a connection!

……

After the two returned to the city wall along the original road, the traveling poet stood in the distance and looked at the two locations, and then found that the place where the door was located seemed to be a palace building.

It's just that when they passed the corridor just now, they didn't see the gate of the palace that they could enter, and there wasn't even a window sill outside.

Except for the dark side door with stairs hidden in the corner, it was a completely enclosed palace.

The traveling poet frowned tightly, temporarily unable to figure out the usefulness of that place.

But thinking about what the girl didn't finish talking during the day—meaning that through the door leading downstairs, you can leave Prague Castle?
Why does it feel so unreliable?
Xu Shuo stared at him, tilted his head and said, "Alex, can you tell me what's on your mind?"

"Um……"

The name softly called out by the girl hit his mind again, and the traveling poet's thinking trembled slightly.

After he realized it, he stared at the girl in front of him, and suddenly asked: "Qilisi, you seem to have said before, where did you hear my name?"

Xu Shuo blinked: "Maybe."

"Do you still have the impression where you heard it?" the traveling poet asked.

"Hmm... where is my sister?"

Xu Shuo said it with a serious and innocent face, and then managed to see the slight change in the eyes of the traveling poet, and thus confirmed that this guy is really a fool who doesn't know anything.

So your calm appearance is actually just because of facial paralysis, right?
