Why it never ends

Chapter 164 Approaching
On this cold night, Chiba stood on a high place and looked down. The crowd seemed to her to be just small figures one after another. She listened to every word the bishop uttered with great interest, a wonderful perspective of God. unfolded in her mind.

An invisible protective net is opened at this moment. After Rishi committed a crime, the evidence he left in the physical world will be erased by his cronies, while the crimes in the spiritual world will be directly pardoned by the bishop ...All the great virtues of mankind: unity, tolerance and cooperation, have always been fully displayed in these people.

Chiba looked at the back of the bishop's head, thinking about what tomorrow's news would be.

"You are indeed here." Si Lei's voice came from behind, Qianye turned his head, and Si Lei had already walked quickly to the window next to Qianye, standing shoulder to shoulder with her.

Su Lei searched the crowd for a while, "Is Stella down there?"

"Probably not," Chiba replied, "She won't come on such occasions, even if she's chasing hot spots, she doesn't like chasing after these old men's comments on events."

——After all, you can guess what these people will say, and you don't have to rush to the scene.

"She should be very busy these two days."

"Well," Chiba nodded, "I guess tonight she should be preparing an article two days later—either Rishi's obituary, or the events after the murderer was arrested, depending on the progress the day after tomorrow."

"So are you busy tonight?"

"It depends on what you want from me." Qianye looked sideways, "What's wrong, disappeared for a whole day?"

"I went to the province of Nia."

It was only then that Qianye noticed the haggard look on Si Lei's face. Her eye sockets were sunken deeper than before, and the eye sockets were blue-black - but these details were not conspicuous in the dark corridor.

Chiba raised her head and thought for a while, "It seems that there is only one train to Nepal today...it's still at five o'clock in the evening."

"Yes, I drove there in the early hours of this morning. It happened that there was a train back to Tan Yi from Nigeria at three o'clock in the afternoon, so I came back by car."

"...too hard work," Chiba withdrew her gaze, and then looked at the crowd below, "Stella will probably like working with you very much."

"Why are you suddenly so idle now?" Si Lei looked over, "I still remember that when you first arrived in Tan Yi, you kept an eye on everything, wishing to read every meeting record and related materials. Once again—”

"This moment, that moment," Qianye made a rather serious expression, which showed a bit of humor on her always cynical face, "I fully trust the strength of my colleagues."

"So you're actually fine tonight, right?"

"It's not all said, it depends on what you want me to do—"

"Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, theoretically, the night when the murderer will show up, don't you necessarily have to guard here?"

"……What do you want to do?"

"Accompany me to a livable place, if you don't have to stay here."

"where to?"

"Go to Duanming Lane first."

Chiba narrowed her eyes, "You know that Hesta's suspicion has been theoretically ruled out, right?"

"Of course," Su Lei nodded confidently, "but who said that she is the only Hesta in the third district?"

As Su Lei said, he flipped the pages of his notebook and stretched it out in front of Chiba, "Fernan, do you still remember this man? Among them, the solicitation in 4617 was the most massive, and he even issued a solicitation order of 'offering a reward of 4618 robbies'.

"But just one year later, in the summer of 4619, Fernan suddenly announced that he would no longer look for it, and all rewards would be void."

Borrowing the moonlight, Qianye glanced at Si Lei's notes, "...it seems that they found it."

"Yes, I think so too." Su Lei nodded, "Do you still remember Rishi's testimony? He claimed that he had encountered a Hesta witch 12 years ago—that is, in 4619—in the outskirts of Tanyi .

"I guess the 'country encounter' story they claim is probably the other way around: instead of meeting a red-haired Hesta woman, they managed to find her.

"In this way, the whole thing is like this: 12 years ago, Rich, Hoffmann, Schmidt, Tanglar, and Villefort found this woman together, and 12 years later, when they one by one They were killed, and several people pointed out without a doubt that it was this woman who came back to kill them—what do you think they did back then?"

Qianye groaned meaningfully, "But why did you go to Duanming Lane? Is it related to Hesta?"

"Not yet, but who knows?" Su Lei flipped the notebook in Qianye's hand and turned it back four pages, "I found a woman from Stella's interview records who also came from Duanming Lane. maya.

"She was given to Rishi by Fernan in 4615, when the girl named Maya was 10 years old. She stayed with Rishi for two years, and then was sent back to Fernan by Rixi—this is I got it all from Fernand's other mistress. I met Fernand's old servant Foye before I left in the afternoon, and this statement was confirmed.

"According to Foye's recollection, Maya was expelled from the house by Fernand in 4621 because she accidentally broke the marble statue that Fernand was going to give to another nobleman. After being kicked out of the livable place, Foye was not sure where she was sent to in the end—although the order was to throw her back to Short Ming Lane, but Fernan couldn't control her out of the livable place. Just sold them off."

"So you went to Duanming Lane to find this woman named Maya?"

"Correct."

Qianye briefly evaluated the possibility of this trip in his mind - with a name and an abstract personal experience, it is basically impossible to find a specific person in the wasteland, let alone so many years have passed , Su Lei couldn't even be sure if this Maya was still alive, and which wasteland she was in specifically.

"What are you looking for her for?"

"Foye said that in the late summer of 4619, Maya took care of a special patient. It was a woman of unknown origin, who was said to be mentally disturbed. I say 'supposedly' here because Foye didn't have anything to do with her either. In contact, I only saw this woman once on the night when she first came here.

"Nevertheless, Foye still had a deep impression on this person, because her condition was horrific—the woman's eye socket was wrapped with many circles of bandages, some blood and tissue fluid seeped through the gauze and turned into two black stains, he I thought the woman had an eye disease, but later I found out that her eyes had been gouged out."

Speaking of this, Sleigh paused, "Do you still remember the teaser photo of Rishi being sprinkled all over the street?"
