Why it never ends

Chapter 302 Investigation
On the morning of the 16th, Hesta finally received the new uniform he applied for.

After the clothes were ironed, they were delivered to her apartment. She changed into new clothes and stood in front of the mirror, quietly looking at herself in the mirror.

She stood upright, shoulders lowered, took a step forward, and raised her hands in salute.

This new black and red cloak is still very heroic, and Hesta suddenly recalled the scene when he saw Liz put on it for the first time in 403 many years ago.She had worn her old uniform gray over the years, and there were many burnt and torn marks at the end of the cloak... She didn't want to see Ava in an old suit.

Everything should be brand new.

At the same time, Alvira was also sitting in front of the mirror.

The morning sun shines through the window, casting oblique light on the dressing table in front of her.The long golden hair hung loose in front of Alvira, and she took a comb and combed them patiently.Looking at herself in the mirror, she suddenly realized the aging of these years.

The butler knocked on the door outside, and Alvira turned her head, "Come in."

"It's all ready, ma'am."

"Is there anyone else in Roon Palace now?"

"Not yet. A few police officers are changing shifts. At the moment, no one is patrolling inside. Everyone is handing over at the door."

"it is good."

Alvira stood up and followed the butler quickly downstairs.The two walked around to the back of Roang Palace through the side door of the inner house.This former palace showed a completely dilapidated scene. Since moving into the Duke's Mansion, it was the first time that Alvira looked at the mottled skin and rust on the wall so seriously.

"...Let's not delay, Mr. Townsend, let's get started."

Under her order, the butler and several servants who had been in the Duke's mansion for more than ten years ran quickly to the interior of the building. After a while, Alvira outside the palace smelled a faint smell of gasoline. , she saw flames flickering from the window on the second floor.

Everyone ran out quickly.

The police not far away finally noticed the abnormality here, and they quickly called the fire brigade, but the fire was already complete, and the thick black smoke rose to the sky, covering the sun for a while.The fire was fierce, and Alvira stood watching from a distance. Under the dim smoke, her cheeks were stained with the orange red of the fire.

Soon, the police began to evacuate the surrounding residents. Fortunately, there was no wind today and the fire did not spread. After six hours of fighting, the fire was finally extinguished.

Alvira confessed to arson on her own initiative. The fire basically destroyed the traces of crime in Rohan Palace. Although the police had collected quite a lot of relevant clues before, some doubts still under investigation will no longer exist. Answer.

During the interrogation, Alvira denied her purpose of destroying the evidence. She just felt that Roang Palace was full of crimes, and such a palace... should not be kept.

During the entire interrogation process, Sophie sat not far away. Listening to her aunt's calm narrative tone, she fell into a huge astonishment. All emotions seemed to be shut down in an instant. She didn't feel sad. It just feels absurd and strange.

The policeman closed his notebook, "You have been suspected of committing the crime of arson and destruction of evidence, please come with us."

"Okay." Alvira stood up, still with a faint smile on her face, "Can I go upstairs and change?"

"of course can."

Sophie ran towards Alvira belatedly, "...Auntie, shall I go with you?"

Alvira smiled and put her arm around Sophie's shoulders, "Farewell, just stay at home and wait for me to come back."

"How long are you going?"

Alvira took a very light breath, "I don't know..."

She tried to take her hand away from Sophie, but Sophie hugged her tightly.Alvira couldn't bear it, and pressed her cheek against Sophie's forehead, until the police officer downstairs coughed a few times, then she pushed Sophie away.

"Can't I really go with you?" Sophie asked crying, and she turned to look at the policeman in the living room, "Can you take me with you?"

The policeman was silent.

"Don't cry," Alvira wiped away Sophie's tears, "Be strong."

……

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Hesta had already packed her luggage. She was sitting alone in the empty apartment, staring at the birds passing by the window from time to time in a daze.

All day Hesta thought about the conversation to come.Due to the sensitive content, she did not put any idea on paper, but a complete outline has been formed in her mind.

In this free and comfortable afternoon, Hesta suddenly remembered some past events. For example, after killing Hoffman, she was once depressed and shed tears all day long-but why was she sad at that time?

She couldn't remember it.

This is only less than three months... I don't know what it will be like to wait for a few years to recall the experience of this period of time?
The phone rang at this moment, Hesta looked down and saw that it was from Si Lei.

"Hello," Hesta answered the phone, "well, it's me... yes, I'm still in Tany, but I'm on the train at seven o'clock in the evening...

"Why? What happened?
"Okay, then I'll come over now."

After hanging up the phone, Hesta got up and walked towards the entrance. Before going out, she stopped suddenly and returned to the bedroom to change out of the new uniform she was wearing—it would be bad if the clothes were dirty along the way.

She had very little luggage, except for some uniforms and identity documents. After checking her ticket and identity card for the last time, she walked out quickly with her suitcase.

……

Tan Yi’s police station turned on the lights at dusk, and as soon as Hesta entered the hall, he saw a messy scene—the row of plastic seats were overturned to the ground, and there were several deep and shallow holes in the ceiling , On the granite floor, some light bloodstains have not been wiped off. She frowned and looked around, trying to see clues from the existing scene.

"Eureka." Su Lei's voice came from around the corner, "This way."

Hesta followed, "What's going on?"

"It was the shepherd who was taken away 10 minutes ago."

"...He attacked the police?"

"It shouldn't be intentional, and the injured person's injury is not serious... Maybe it was a temporary sadness." Su Lei said in a low voice, "Your car at seven o'clock?"

"Seven fifty-five."

"That's okay, we can catch up." Su Lei glanced at his watch, and led Hesta all the way to the inquiry room deep in the police station, "We need to inform everyone who has had close contact with Alvira during this period." A simple interview will not take long, maybe more than 20 minutes."

"...What happened to her?" Hesta stopped, "Why are you investigating her?"

Su Lei was silent for a moment, then looked at Hesta, "She committed suicide, just this afternoon."
