Chapter 160
“It was similar to what happened in the Schlaphe Hall.”
I said that to Rockefeller in the office.
Strange occurrences were not only common in the Schlaphe Hall but often happened in the Buerger Hall as well. That place wasn’t near the Adele Hall dormitory, and to be precise, it was closer to the Buerger Hall. Perhaps slightly convinced, he fell silent.
“Hmm. Still, it’s strange. Have incidents like this, which one would expect only in the dormitory, ever spread into the inner fortress…?”
A thought came to me that added some credibility to my point.
“It might have been affected by the recent large-scale construction.”
The repair work on the fortress, carried out due to the Luon incident, was handled by noble youngsters rather than skilled workers, so it wouldn’t be surprising if they meddled with something unintentionally. As intended, Rockefeller accepted this explanation quite easily.
“That does seem suspicious.”
For the next few minutes, questions about what exactly happened inside continued. I answered evasively. Talking about things like a forbidden tome in there or the lingering thoughts of ancient soldiers who once attacked this place would only add to the confusion.
