Why it never ends

Chapter 219 Alecto
Qianye hugged the person in front of him horizontally, and quickly ran towards the exit of the old building. Several prison guards who heard the voice almost chased Qianye out.

"Ma'am! What's the matter with her?"

"She has a sudden illness and needs treatment," Chiba replied while running, "It's okay, I'll take her to the central hospital."

"Do you want to send it to our medical—"

"Your infirmary is full of people."

Qianye returned to the car with the solar eclipse in her arms. She took out the car keys and quickly started the car. The prison guards at the door cooperated with each other and opened the door for Qianye.

The car drove about two blocks away from the Independence Prison, and Eclipse got up and moved again. She reached out to the charging port on the side of the co-pilot, trying to remove the plastic sheet on it, but before she could use any force, Chiba suddenly pulled out With one hand, he held down the piece of plastic.

The solar eclipse looked at Qianye in disbelief—maybe Qianye was worried that she would touch it by mistake and kindly blocked her?

"Hand... I... fit..."

Eclipse raised her hand, and dark brown lines appeared on her ring finger and middle finger. The skin of her fingertips expanded and cracked along the lines, and two bony joints appeared in the part that should have been joints.

"Isn't there still 4 minutes left? What's the rush?" Qianye slapped her hand away and glanced at her, "Where is the person who sent you here now?"

At this moment, Eclipse completely understood the threat in Chiba's tone.

"You... mean..."

"Anna Sokolova." Chiba looked ahead with a calm expression, "Where is she, tell me."

……

At four o'clock in the morning, Campbell and Hester sat opposite each other.

Hesta's chest was fixed with a belt, her left eye was bruised, six or seven bloodstains were wiped on her right cheek, a thin layer of scab formed at the corner of her mouth, and several bruises and small wounds were scattered on her neck and arms And on the calf, it looks very embarrassing.

Hesta's eyes were half-closed, her gaze kept on the ground.

Although the girl is still silent at this moment, Campbell can feel that her silence today is different from any time in the past.

"It's almost dawn." Campbell said suddenly, "Tomorrow is your court date."

Campbell saw Hesta's brow wrinkled, with suspicion, and some exhausted helplessness.

"...They can't suspect other people at will." Hesta murmured and closed her eyes, "Even if I don't contest... these charges... shouldn't fall on me..."

Campbell nodded approvingly, and if Hesta could look up at him at this moment, he would see a sincere light in his eyes.

"You should have read all the materials I prepared, haven't you?"

"Ah."

"Is there anything you would like to say to me, or is there anything else you think I should know?"

Hesta let out a long sigh of relief. She finally opened her eyes and looked at Campbell. Campbell was pleasantly surprised by that gaze—this was the gaze of a junior looking at an elder, although there was still some distrust in it.

"Sorry..." Hesta whispered, "I shouldn't have..."

"You don't need to mention this, it's very important for you to think about the question I just asked."

Hesta was silent for a long time, which made Campbell almost hold his breath.

"I... did lie before..." Hesta whispered.

"What lie?"

"When I was at Ava's place, she... once questioned me about the past in Short Ming Lane..."

Every time Hestad spoke half a sentence, Campbell would nod in between pauses to show that he was always listening.

"I've read the stuff," replied Campbell. "You say you're an orphan—is that the lie you mean?"

Hesta's expression became painful, maybe because of the injury, maybe because of the memory, but all this made her soft whisper sound more real.

"Actually, I haven't lived alone all the time. There is someone—no, someone who has been... taking care of me."

……

Outside the independent prison, public opinion is raging.

As a deliberate serial murder case, it is mysterious, ostentatious, and even has some legendary flavors popular among the people. At the same time, it is different from other heinous crimes, because ordinary people hardly feel threatened from it.

——Just the fact that all the dead are high and powerful makes this case sound like a sense of justice.

But the panic it has unleashed among some is unprecedented.

When Hoffman was killed, the dignitaries hadn’t reacted yet, but the murders of Rich and Schmidt sounded alarm bells in their ears, and the news and newspapers set off a crusade against the “assassins”: a civilization The world must not tolerate such a desperado.

However, the more bloody and brutal a case is, the more vigorous its vitality among the people. Although no one knows who is behind the assassin's mask, this does not affect people's imagination at all.

No one likes the name of "Assassin", which is not derogatory. In all kinds of rumors created by people, they call the Assassin "Alecto", or "Punisher", this name comes from No. An ancient myth in the southern part of District 12, the youngest and most tyrannical god among the twelve Nemesis Gods.

According to legend, Alecto the Punisher was born from the eyes of the god of the earth, Dehe. She was born cold, cunning, and powerful. She was abandoned on a deserted island by her father Erbai as soon as she was born, and became her eleven sisters. When she was found, she had been raised by hyenas on a deserted island.

Alecto is always the image of a six-year-old girl. She holds three chains of thorns with thorns in her left hand. One can make people tell the truth, one can make people die of pain, and the other can cure diseases and ward off evil spirits, and even make people die. resurrection.

The girl's right hand holds a skull—that is the head of the first God of War, Gaihe.

Since she grew up in the wilderness since she was a child, Alecto is completely unconstrained by the world. She often escapes everyone's sight and goes outside to play alone.

Alecto likes to pretend to be a child who strayed into the fairyland to tease the fairies passing by, or sit beside the gods on the mountain of the gods and overlook the world.If anyone gave her a harsh look while driving by, she would appear on the spot and whip the offender's face with a thorn chain. Among the many stories, Alecto's deeds of provoking the sun god and the god of war are the most outstanding. famous.

Young Alecto did not inherit Dehe's benevolence and generosity at all, but inherited her mother's keenness and wisdom—after all, she was born in Dehe's eyes, so she was born with a pair of insightful eyes, able to see right from wrong at a glance.No matter how eloquent the perpetrator is, whether he is wearing a crown or is also a god, she always brings down cruel divine punishment quickly after seeing through the lies and hypocrisy of these people.

So the gods went to Liber Bay three times, and launched a conquest against Alecto—the gods couldn't tolerate the girl's misbehavior, especially, several of the villains who were executed by her had already won the forgiveness of the gods.
