Overturned Tower - Vol 2.3 Chapter 43

Latest URL:

The bright golden light swaying on the bow shone in the sparkling black river, breaking into countless pieces of gold.

Hang Hang stood outside the cabin, raised his head and looked at the extraordinarily distant night sky.

Yongquan Island is so far away from the sky that even the dim moon appears blurred. Like a street lamp in the drizzle of algae, the light halos of divinity dimmed in the bottom of the pupils.

Obviously the inferior is in danger and needs his help.

But I don’t know why…

Feeling the slight shaking of the hull, feeling the cool wind wet with water blowing his fluffy white hair in the early morning of mid-May, Hanging felt the peace from the bottom of his heart.

Because this atmosphere made him too comfortable, he wanted to choose to escape instead.

“Hey, I said…”

Breaking the tranquility of the night, Hang Sha asked in a deep voice.

There was the sound of running water behind him.

Xiaoya swam over from the running water pool in the center of the cabin, folded her arms together and folded on the edge of the pool, like a good student who is listening to the class seriously.

“What’s the matter, Mister Strangler?”

Her polite and gentle voice came from behind Hang Hang.

This made Strangler subconsciously tense his back full of muscles, and his hands wrapped around his body were clenched instantly.

With a strangled personality and his usual experience…he never allows others to approach behind him without permission.

A liar always wonders if others are cheating on him, while a killer suspects that everyone wants his life. And strangle is a born traitor, so he is also wary of every backstab.

He never gave up his back.

—However, Miss Xiaoya doesn’t understand my rules.

Hang Hang said to himself from the bottom of his heart, choosing forgiveness on his own.

That, or, is another kind of self-exhortation to warn myself not to do unnecessary things.

“…No, it’s fine.”

After a long silence, Hang Sha still didn’t say what he wanted to ask.

He paused, and said without looking back, “May I smoke, please?”

“Ah, please.”

Xiaoya said softly: “The aluminum can on the bow is the ashtray. If possible, please don’t throw the ash in the water. Although the water body has a strong purification ability, it will also cause harm to everyone’s health.”

“Thank you. Excuse me.”

Strangling responded briefly, and took out a half-smoked cigar in a moisture-proof can from his arms.

He took the cigar out and turned it upside down. As the moisture-proof cans fell like a knife, the cigars were cut off with damp and blackened heads.

“Ah…that’s a cigar.”

Seeing this, Xiaoya swam out of the pool and rummaged in the cabinet next to her: “As for the matches, they are here…”

“no need.”

Strangling lit it directly with a lighter and held it near his mouth.

He turned around and saw Xiaoya who just found the match, held the matchbox in both hands, and looked back happily.

Hanging was silent for another moment, walked into the dark cabin, bowed his head and squatted down on one knee.

He bit his cigar and mumbled, “Sorry.”

“Why do you have to apologize?”

Xiaoya just put away the matches, leaned back slightly, and put the weight of her upper body on the tail of the fish.

Hang Kill is always hunched over on weekdays, but he is also over 1.85 meters tall. The muscles of his arms are even a few circles thicker than ordinary people’s thighs, and his back is so broad and powerful, giving people the illusion that “this guy can’t be hurt with a knife”.

Even if he squatted down, he was still taller than Xiaoya.

So he simply looked like a swordsman, sitting cross-legged on the boat with his back slightly bent. Only then did he barely meet Xiaoya’s line of sight.

Watching Hang Hang, Xiaoya repeated: “Why does Mr. Hang Hang always have to apologize?”

“…..my

Very few apologies. ”

Hanging was silent for a while, and made a low and extremely magnetic voice that made people’s heart tremble slightly like a lion’s roar: “Actually, I am a self-willed, pretentious, and arrogant fool.”

“There is no such thing.”

Xiaoya defended him: “Isn’t Mr. Hanging a hunchback?”

“Yes, it’s ugly.”

“No. People with hunchbacks are gentle.”

The girl with golden wavy hair and dark blue pupils retorted without hesitation.

“Are you laughing at me?” Hang Sha didn’t take her words to heart at all.

“No.”

“why?”

“Tall and hunchbacked people probably bend their backs because they want to look at others as equals when they speak.”

Xiao Ya looked straight into Hang Kill’s eyes.

His pupils are as dark golden as gold that has not yet solidified after burning, giving people a scorching hot and inaccessible feeling.

“It’s hard to bend over all the time. After you get used to it, you won’t be able to straighten up anymore, and you’ll be laughed at.

“But at the beginning, I just didn’t want to make myself too high, so I chose to bend down.”

The girl said so.

Strangling’s breathing stopped for a moment.

The cigar in his mouth was burning quietly, emitting a faint red light in the dim cabin. It’s like a fire that once ignited, but was extinguished.

“…a novel answer.”

After a long silence, Strangled replied in a low voice: “I have never heard such an explanation.”

He took off his cigar and looked at it. She avoided Xiaoya’s gaze.

The boat was still rocking.

“how about you?”

After a period of silence, Hang Zhan suddenly asked.

“what?”

“How did you become a traitor?”

Hang Shou looked at Xiaoya, and asked in a calm tone: “I see that you have a good relationship with many people, not only rapers. Even passers-by know you and know your name.”

Hearing this, Xiaoya rubbed her temples with some headaches, and said helplessly: “Strictly speaking, I’m not actually a pervert.”

“Oh, no wonder.”

“Because I’m just an orphan.”

Xiaoya replied briskly, “My parents died when I was a young fry. Because of an event where a demon descended, they became two of a bunch of names in the news reports.”

“…….Feel sorry.”

“It’s nothing. I was only three months old that year, and I haven’t started to remember anything, so it’s too late to be sad.”

Xiaoya smiled: “Besides, I don’t have any adoptive parents. Rather than saying that I was raised by the perpetrators, it would be better to say that I was raised by the grandparents in this street.”

“Old people.”

“That’s right. At the beginning, because I was very hungry, I grabbed the leg of the old man who sold fried fresh milk and didn’t let go. So I was fed food. After I was full, I wandered around the street. What? When I was hungry, I asked someone for something to eat. After I finished eating, I said thank you seriously, UU reading www.uukanshu.com, and then continued to walk outside. ”

“Fortunately, I was not abducted. Or, because I know everyone on this street…but no one can take me away under everyone’s gaze.”

Xiaoya said softly, and swam around to hang in front of him.

She was only one step away from getting out of the cabin, but her whole body was hidden in the shadows. But this angle is enough to see the moon.

Hang Sha also turned around with her, hiding in the shadows and watching her back.

“Then it got colder. By December…it was snowing.

She said, turning around suddenly: “Have you ever seen snow?

“No.”

to strangle

“I used to live downtown,” he replied.

“Downtown area?”

“It’s just under the empty island. When you look up, you can see the sea. You can never see what the weather is.”

“Then it just fell down with a plop?”

“The gravity of the lower city is inverted, which is why the sky island can float.”

Strangling barely explained.

He thought to himself, if Miss Xiaoya kept asking, he would not be able to explain it.

After all, he never went to school. Can he know that this inverted gravity is related to the suspension of the sky island, or because he secretly remembered the chat between the godfather and the malt wine.

“Anyway… the snow is beautiful, but it’s also cold.”

Xiaoya said softly: “I almost froze to death in the river…or rather, I passed out from the cold and lost consciousness.”

“and after?”

Hangsha asked in a low voice.

“Of course I was rescued later,” Xiaoya said with a smile, “otherwise, how could I tell you a story here?”
