Why it never ends

Chapter 197

Hesta, who escaped from the sky, was a little depressed at the moment.

She was bored looking at the fat magpies on the branches not far away. They jumped up and down, and their round bellies made the treetops shake up and down.

She couldn't remember the last time she was in such a mess.

Recalling everything that happened this morning, Hesta felt an unknown fire rising from her stomach—she never expected that Victoria would come up and make a killing move.

I feel sorry for you, but you hit me hard... It's really unreasonable.

If it hadn't been for the last moment when she was so lucky that she decided not to break in through the window, but to see what the mercury needles that suddenly hid behind the building were doing, then she would have been blown out of her wits by now, with no bones left. saved.

Even if it is temporarily safe now, as long as he thinks back to the scene last night when he found that all the mercury needles were withdrawing at the speed of light, Hesta still has a feeling of being choked by a nightmare. Instinctively followed behind these people and fled in the same direction.

But even so, she was not able to escape unscathed, leaving minor abrasions on her left hand, right shoulder and the back of her neck.

A few howls of wolves came from a distance, disturbing Hesta's mind.She suddenly remembered that Rishi was probably lying in a safe place to sleep, and couldn't help but clenched her fists—she failed to fulfill the rules she set, and failed to inflict serious damage on No. 12 nights.

This sudden annoyance was even worse than before.

But if you think about it carefully, isn't this the weakness that was pinpointed by Victoria?
She had already noticed something strange when she rushed to the Golden Crow Palace last night, but this urgency to immediately demand Lixi's life still blinded her eyes, making her reluctant to leave.

Since Victoria and the others dared to set explosives in the Golden Crow Palace, it can be seen that Rishi had been transferred to another place in advance by them.

I didn't realize it at all...

Now calm down and think about it, in fact, on the night of the riot at Tan Yi North Station, when she found that Victoria's team did not show up in time, she should have realized that it was very suspicious—they must have taken advantage of their time in Tan Yi When the North Station dealt with Avinash, it smuggled Rishi out of the Golden Crow.

If I had been able to ponder along this point at that time, things would not have developed to this point today.

Or was he too anxious, too greedy... All these details that he could clearly detect in advance, unexpectedly missed all of them.

He deserved to be ambushed by the enemy.

Facing the wound on her hand, Hesta was a little worried: when she was chased by Miss Chiba and jumped into the sea, she had a bruise on her right cheek, which was easy to cover up, but now the few scratches on her body are easy to Where I saw it, ten days later, it was probably when they were red, swollen and scabbed.

How does this go to court?Doesn't this make people see the flaw at a glance?

Also, where exactly was Rishi taken by Victoria and the others...

Victoria used the wrong coordinates to set a trap, obviously she had deduced the fact that she could grasp their coordinates—then what method should be used in the future to know their deployment in advance?
Questions surfaced one after another, like countless imps leaping from the abyss, clasping noisily at Hesta's ankles.

She was anxiously thinking about these problems, and couldn't think of a solution for a while, only feeling that she was being driven to death.

After a while, Hesta rubbed her hands, she straightened up, rewrapped the somewhat incomplete cloak around her body, and jumped down one by one along the branches below.

There are too many problems and I can't think of a solution, so let's think about it tomorrow.

Never mind, find something to eat first.

……

The fire in the Golden Crow Palace lasted for a day and a night. The fire ignited a corner of the city, and the pungent charcoal smell filled the city.

On the second day, there was heavy rain in Tanyi. If it wasn't for the extremely cold weather, the heavy rain of this level would make people think that the weather suddenly jumped to summer.

Several members of the Victoria team recovered their respective chip memory from the scene. After sending it back to the reserve base for testing, they accidentally discovered that the one belonging to Victoria had failed. Several people speculated that this might be caused by the The reason why the assassins temporarily changed their intrusion route.

At the same time, the military of the coalition government and AHgAs temporarily recruited several professionals from the reserve base to form a new team, and began to search for traces of the assassin's body in the ruins of the Golden Crow Palace—the continuous invasion of explosions, fires, and heavy rains intensified the situation. The difficulty of one action, everything progresses slowly.

However, the city's power has been restored quickly.

The news of the destruction of Clier Farm slowly spread, and everyone was shocked. About a week later, some women came here on foot one after another. They refused to reveal their reason for coming, and even refused to give their names. There were also middle-aged people, some came alone, some held hands with each other, but most of them were silent all the way.

Facing the majestic ruins of the Golden Crow Palace, they stopped for a long time and wept loudly.

The cry was bitter and heart-wrenching, like the wailing of a slaughtered animal, but it sounded so happy that sometimes people couldn't tell whether it was crying or laughing. here.

People in the distance stop their work from time to time and look over here. The crying is too piercing to prevent them from concentrating on their work.

Another evening, Victoria came here with a camera.

She didn't have any tasks on this trip, she just wanted to come here to take a photo.

Amidst the crying, she seemed to see a layer of solidified suffering covering the shoulders of every woman here, and the gray faces of the women mixed with hatred and sorrow... These turbulent shadows that only exist in an instant Shocked by Victoria, she quickly pressed the shutter on the silhouettes and backs of the women crying.

After the tears had dried up, the women began to pray in low voices towards the church spire in the distance,
With the prayers, those fresh and spicy looks disappeared from the women's faces, replaced by a kind of piety and obedience from the heart.

Victoria frowned, she didn't know what happened, and the hand holding the camera hesitated for a moment.

The silhouettes of the women in the golden evening light had a certain calm divinity that reminded her of the doomed Madonna in the cathedral.

Victoria stopped shooting, she walked slowly on the muddy slope, looking further into the distance.

In the middle of this group of women who were as light as dust, she soon found a strange red-haired woman who was shuttling among these crying women. She tried to talk to everyone, and then handed them own business card.

However, many women showed panic after hearing her words. They quickly got up and fled from this man like avoiding the plague. Only a few of them took her business card.

　happy New Year everyone!Happy Year of the Tiger!
