Chapter 290 - Matsumoto Castle Tower
"Say," Qian Yu suddenly thought of something. "Does that mean we can't go back? After all, the cytoskeleton is gone......"
"If the body doesn't die, there's a theoretical chance – because the organic part that is broken down doesn't include the basic framework of the skeleton. If you don't die in the first intracellular collapse, you can theoretically regrow it if you have a way to refill the cytoskeleton and the cell itself...... Of course, as an obvious thing, this would require a lot of energy, so I don't see the feasibility of such a restoration effort. After all, APTX-4869 can indeed directly suppress all active ingredients by taking standard antidotes before it is fully effective, but it is useless for us who are already smaller. ”
"After all, we have to live under the rule of time," Gray Yuan sighed as he looked at a model of a clock from a long time ago. "Even if we can live longer, we can't change the fact that death will come; Even if we were able to change organs in the future, our brains would gradually age, and when the brains could not work, you and I would no longer exist. The hourglass is still there today, and the conquering king is gone. (King of Conquest: Alexander, said to be the inventor of the Western hourglass)"
"If we don't die, then you and I probably won't be in this world, because the world will be forced to control birth control due to overpopulation before we are born." Qian Yu shook his head. "And, can you imagine how an ancient, accustomed to flint and flint, would have adapted to lighters and umbrellas? Earlier Australopithecus (Homo erectus of early humans thought to be the ancestors at the time. But now that some people think that the earlier Archaeopteryx was the form of humans and orangutans when they first parted ways in the course of evolution, how can they adapt to this? Can their brain volume and body structure adapt to this? ”
"It's ...... too," Gray Plains' face looked a little softer. After all, human beings themselves are a species that is constantly renewed in this way - as members of this race, you and I are not qualified to negotiate terms with time. ”
"Worrying about problems that cannot be solved only adds to the troubles, and enjoying the resources available to you is the only way to enjoy your time." Qian Yu had already regained his smiling expression. "We'll have to keep watching, or we won't be able to finish the tour in time."
………… After heading north and visiting a group of supporting actors, including the Stedelijk Museum, the group finally came to the point of the trip.
"Although it is very prestigious, but compared to the Salzburg Fortress, the remaining Matsumoto castle tower is really ......" Standing outside the municipal museum, Chiba looked at Matsumoto Castle not far away and pouted. Although it did take Salzburg hundreds of years to expand to that extent......"
"Salzburg Fortress?" Ash Hara Ai also looked at Matsumoto Castle. "Sounds like it's in Salzburg, would you mind telling me about it?"
"It's a very large fortress built on a mountain, probably the largest in Central Europe." Qian Yu said after thinking about it. "I went there during my first vacation after college, so I didn't have any special impressions...... I remember that the torture chamber inside was quite scary, and then there was a bunch of three-dimensional models that marked the contents of the major changes to the Salzburg fortress...... Oh yes! Do you remember that crystal bracelet and that big crystal tree you saw in my bedroom earlier? Those two were bought there, two hundred euros. (Austria has a well-developed artificial crystal industry, and the large crystal tree and crystal bracelet in the Salzburg fortress should not exceed 418 euros now...... )
"Alright, let's go see the ruins of the palace over there," Dr. Asasa led everyone to the ruins of the palace of Nikamaru.
"Aren't we going straight to the castle tower?" Motota asked. "You should be able to walk straight to the front, right?"
"The Matsumoto castle tower is the heart of Matsumoto Castle, so it's a good idea to enjoy this meal at the end." Dr. Asasa said with a smile. "Only by being patient can you get the best viewing experience at the end!"
"But what's the point of seeing a pile of wreckage!" Yuan Tai pouted.
"Doctor, why don't you take them to see the Matsumoto castle tower directly?" Conan said after glancing at the crowd. "There are no people on the other side of the ruins of the palace of Nimaru......" (There are usually only a few people on the ruins of the palace of Nishimaru, and the Matsumoto castle tower may be more than 0 after this number.) )
"Huh?" Dr. Asa paused for a moment, only to realize that what Conan said was true. "That'...... What do you think, kids? ”
In the end, the Junior Detective Corps once again voted 3 in favor and 3 abstentions, and passed the direct journey to the castle tower, the core building of Matsumoto Castle.
"The Matsumoto castle tower is a little different from the others," Conan said, pointing to the left-most part of the three-part castle tower. "See this part that is obviously more defenceless? Do you know what it is? ”
"What the hell is this design?" Chiba immediately noticed that the part of the building that Conan was pointing to was indeed a less defensive part compared to the other two, and that there was a top floor with large open windows. "Ask someone else to climb the stairs?"
"That's right," Conan nodded in fact. "Just invite someone upstairs - this is Tsukimi-yagura!" (That is, the Moon Viewing Tower)
"Why did you throw this thing into a defensive complex?" Qian Yu frowned.
"It is said that it was to welcome the three generations of shoguns Tokugawa Iemitsu who were supposed to come, so the Tsukimi tower was built in the castle tower complex," Conan shrugged. Because of this, the Matsumoto castle tower, which was originally a watchtower, was transformed into a tower-shaped castle tower – and it is worth mentioning that Tokugawa Iemitsu actually canceled his visit. Until now, the Matsumoto castle tower was the only one of the existing castle towers where the Tsukimi Turret was built in the castle tower complex. ”
"Saying," Qian Yu suddenly noticed another strange thing. "Why do I think Matsumoto Castle Tower seems to be a bit ...... Crooked? ”
"It's really crooked in theory," Conan said, spreading his hands. "Because the Matsumoto castle tower was built on a swampy ground, the 16 supporting pillars that were planted hundreds of years ago to build the Matsumoto castle tower were already badly decayed during the Meiji period, and even if the Meiji Renovation and Hirohito Renovation were carried out later to save the balance of the Matsumoto castle tower, it may not have been able to completely restore the balance of the castle tower."
With this exchanging words, the group walked into the entrance gate that opened on the first floor of the attached turret sandwiched between the main castle tower and the small castle tower.
