Why it never ends

Chapter 226 Personal Questions
This sudden change stunned Qianye: "...What situation?"

Victoria beckoned to Chiba, motioning him to come closer, she supported Chiba's shoulder and whispered in a low voice.

"Hesta might have a way of recruiting 'The Assassin'."

"What a mess," Qianye frowned, "She has been locked up all this time, and she hasn't even seen the face of the assassin—"

Victoria grabbed Chiba, "Why are you in a hurry? I pointed out this possibility a long time ago, but the higher-ups have ignored it all the time. Do you know that Hesta grew up in the Valerie League, The assassin might be too—whether she recognizes the assassin or not, the assassin must recognize her, there are too many evidences!"

Chiba narrowed her eyes: "...Who told you that Hesta grew up in the Valerie League?"

"She said it herself."

From Viktoria, Chiba quickly learned what had happened—just a few hours earlier, Hesta had accurately described Valerie's appearance and other characteristics: small, hunchbacked, left-eyed She is blind but can't see through her prosthetic eyes, but her face is always slightly to the left when looking at people and things, and she is used to traveling with two guns.

These descriptions are indeed in line with the information Qianye learned in Duanming Lane during this period of time - if he hadn't actually met Valerie himself, he shouldn't be able to say so detailed.

AHgAs is more compromising on other things, but it has never budged on the issue of stealing people.If the headquarters can confirm that the assassin is a person with the ability of quicksilver needles, offices 003 and 005 will spare no effort to fight for her, and will never let her continue wandering outside—just like the case of Hesta that was treated eight years ago.

Chiba thought about it.

It turns out that Jane grew up in the Valerie League... She has been searching for the missing old Charlie in the fourth district recently, and it seems that the direction may be wrong.

"What's the reaction from the coalition government?" Chiba asked.

"Of course they strongly opposed it. They sent us three consecutive condemnation letters within an hour, protesting our 'tough attitude' on this matter, which made them 'deeply shocked' or something.

"We are also old-fashioned. Due to some 'temporarily undisclosed reasons', we can only take such actions. After all, if our work goes wrong, whether it is in the wasteland or in a livable place, we will be in danger...so apart from' express Unfortunately, we had no other choice."

During Victoria's narration, Chiba was rare and quiet, without interrupting once.

In silence, she had already realized a certain possibility.

The two walked around the courtyard of the inner court, and when Victoria returned to the escort vehicle, Chiba was still walking around the courtyard alone.

During the rest of the waiting time, she kept looking in the direction of the court.

Do you want to take off your identity as an assassin and return to Tan Yi in an upright manner?
……

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Robin closed her notebook, but the camera equipment on the side was still on.The entire conversation lasted for nearly six hours, and both of them were a little tired.

"These records," Robin patted his notebook, "will be handed over to the Lager workstation for some desensitization treatment, and they will evaluate whether it is related to chelation disease, chelation, and the internal operation of mercury needles. The information should be cut and blurred as appropriate.

"Afterwards, I will synchronize the desensitized content to the coalition government. During the time you are at the Lager workstation, if you have any information that needs to be conveyed, you can come to me... Do you have any other questions? "

Hesta shook her head. "Can I ask you a personal question, Ms. Robin?"

"Huh? A personal question."

"Are you Mercury Needle, or an ordinary citizen of Habitable Land?"

Robin raised the corner of his mouth, "This question is really... a little difficult to answer. I am not a mercury needle, but it seems that it is difficult to say that I am an ordinary citizen of a livable place."

Hesta tilted his head, "What do you mean?"

"My mother is Mercury Needle," Robin smiled. "After she passed away, I have been living in a reserve base in the Fourth District. I only returned to the Third District to study when I was 16 years old."

"No wonder," Hesta understood, "I always feel that you have some mercury needle temperament."

"Really? What kind of temperament is your mercury needle?"

Hesta was silent for a long time, "...I can't say well."

Robin laughed, "It may not be the temperament of mercury needles, professional women are like this... shall we go out?"

"it is good."

……

Not long after the news of the end of the trial spread, shots were fired outside the courtroom. With the conclusion of today’s trial, the issue of Hesta’s fate was already on the line. There was a fierce conflict between the teams.

Robin and Hesta, who were about to walk to the door, had no choice but to return to the lounge of the court. Robin began to sort out the manuscript again, and Hesta sat quietly with his eyes closed, and neither of them spoke again.

Behind them, a bailiff held a baton and was always guarding the door.A surveillance camera hangs above his head, recording everything in the lounge at a glance.

About 10 minutes later, the bailiff received a summons, and he ran out quickly, leaving only Hesta and Robin in the lounge.

Against the backdrop of the hustle and bustle outside, the lounge looked extraordinarily quiet.

Robin closed the pen and looked at Hesta suddenly, "Can I ask you a personal question too, Hesta?"

Hesta opened his eyes and looked up, "Of course... you can tell."

"Since you have made up your mind long ago that you will never be an unknown person in this life, why have you been carrying out missions for AHgAs incognito all these years-always lurking in the dark like a shadow, you will not be unwilling ?"

Hesta chuckled.

"I'm not just Jane Hester, I'm also an AHgAs fighter. All mercury needles take 'total elimination of chelation disease' as their ultimate ideal. In this process, if anyone needs to make some sacrifices, I will Do your part.

"If you think that my so-called 'reputation' is just for some fame and reputation, some praise and admiration from other people, then you are very wrong."

Hesta's eyes sparkled, "I want far more than this."

Just as Robin was about to ask, there was a sound of steady and quick footsteps outside the door. The door of the lounge was pushed open again, and Victoria appeared at the door.

"You can go, Hesta."

……

As soon as he got into the car, the quicksilver needle at the Lager workstation removed the shackles on Hesta's hands and feet.

"Is it okay?" Hesta moved his wrist, "Just go straight like this?"

"It's okay." Victoria on the co-pilot waved her hand.

"Where are you going now?" asked Hesta.

"Go back to Tan Yi." Victoria turned her head, "Do you have anything else to do here?"
