Before Father Shi could ask, Jiang Yuejing said with a sorrowful expression, "Years ago, during my travels, I had the pleasure of meeting Miss Shi. She was the one who introduced me to the local customs and traditions of this place. Never did I expect that when I finally found my beloved and wished to ask Miss Shi to show me around the Tower once more, she and I would already be worlds apart." With that, Jiang Yuejing burst into tears.
Father Shi wept along with her. Though he did not know whether Jiang Yuejing's words were true or false, there was at least no malice in her intent.
Father Shi led the two of them to the mourning hall. After offering a stick of incense, Jiang Yuejing asked Father Shi about the events of that day. Father Shi pointed to the young man beside him and said that he was Shi Yi's brother.
