Why it never ends

Chapter 404 Confession
Agnes wanted to say more, but the sharp pain in her back silenced her again, her features twisted together in pain - the violent movement just twisted her wound again.

Everyone didn't know who to turn their attention to: Agnes?Hesta?Gobelin or Bernhard—

The iron spoon hit the metal cup, and there was a harsh impact sound again.

"Return at all costs," Hesta chanted loudly, "Return immediately and approach the shore as close as possible, because this sea area..."

Hesta frowned suddenly and fell silent.

"What are you talking about? What is this sea area?" Su Lei asked.

"It's the suggestion in the "Guidebook"...but I can't remember it," Hesta raised his head with a slightly apologetic expression, "Although I heard the general idea yesterday... I still asked Mr. Gobelin to copy it for everyone. One is more convenient."

"I... never said this to her..." Tears welled up in the eyes of Agnes in the distance, "never——that's not what I said!"

"In short, I probably understand why there was a personal attack on me last night, because if I was seriously injured, Mr. Gobelin, you probably think that Ms. Chiba will definitely return to the nearest voyage for me. Was it promised?"

Several passengers who boarded the ship with Roborgrille listened to Hesta's analysis in disbelief. They looked at Gobelin, "...Mr. Gobelin?"

"It seems so," Hesta whispered, "and you have concealed the fact that you have obtained the "Guide" from most people."

Suddenly, there was a sound behind Hesta. It was Bree, who had already entered the anger mode, and his two companions who were trying to prevent him from getting up and making trouble.Hester knew what it was going to be like without turning his head - and Bree didn't seem to know any of it either.

Bernhard looked around, observing everyone's reactions, and when he looked at Goebbels again, his gaze also brought a little scrutiny: "...this "Guide" is the one mentioned in your boarding letter. something?"

Gobelin closed his eyes and exhaled lightly.

"Allow me to explain."

The crowd fell silent again, and the momentary silence made Hesta suddenly foresee part of the result—the passengers looked at Goebbels so earnestly, obviously expecting him to come up with a convincing answer, but Van Goebbels If Lin can justify himself in the future, these passengers will choose to believe without hesitation.

In comparison, those government troops in gray-blue uniforms were much calmer.They hadn't said a word so far, and everyone sat quietly in unison, neither surprised nor eager.This is quite in line with Hesta's impression of the government army - obedience is a virtue, but thinking is not.

Her eyes turned back to Bernhard. This middle-aged officer was the brains of these soldiers. Like Arnold, his face also revealed a calm and majestic temperament.

Li Ke leaned closer to Hesta's ear: "He said just now that he was just an adjutant... Did this mean that Rand was the commander-in-chief of the secret operation last night?"

Hesta whispered: "Ghosts will believe such words."

Gobelin walked slowly to the middle of the hall, his leather shoes stepped on the floor of the restaurant, making a kicking sound.

"First of all, I would like to ask everyone to recall the version of "Boarding Instructions" without comments," Goeblin said softly, "'We have prepared a limited number of "Guidelines for the Shengming Cruise Ship" in waiting room No. 12, and arrived on time After the waiting room, you can take as much of the "Guidebook" as you want, and it will guarantee you a favorable position for the rest of the voyage' - so far, I have followed everything in the "Instructions", very Unfortunately, it failed."

Su Lei reacted: "So the 'return flight' mentioned by Hesta just now is indeed the content in the Guide?"

"It's the first item in the "Guidelines," Goeblin replied, "If we can return, everything can be over, and there is no need to follow any subsequent guidance—at least that's what the "Guidelines" promises .”

Su Lei pulled up a chair and sat down: "When did you get the "Guide"?"

"I need to arrange everything for Mr. Robeau Griller in advance, so at noon on the day of boarding, I was already on the Rising Star. I didn't look for it deliberately. On the contrary, I found the "Guide" in the Bishop restaurant. A chance."

"Then why did you—"

Gobelin turned his head back: "Why didn't I take out the "Guidebook" earlier...? I beg you to be merciful, and don't judge the decision at that time with the eyes of the moment. Although only three days have passed, during this time How would you know what happened at the time?"

Gobelin looked back at his audience, "I handed the "Guide" to Mr. Roborgrille immediately. It was Mr. Roborgrillet's decision not to announce it, and I am very much in favor of it. As for the reason..."

"So," a passenger stood up slowly, "you mean that Monsieur Robeauglier--"

Gobelin put his hands on her shoulders, and without much effort, let her sit down again.

"I might as well tell you that Mr. Robeau-Grillet also hesitated when he received the strange "Boarding Instructions", although he had a premonition that the voyage would not be smooth, but he still came.

"He has experienced many death threats over the years, and several times, assassins have even sneaked into his mansion, but he has never been intimidated by these people, and he has rarely even mentioned everything he has experienced to others... All of this is very encouraging to me, so I understand his decision.

"He's just, unwilling to back down from danger—"

"But my personal safety can be sacrificed." Hesta interrupted this passage softly. Her voice still sounded a little weak, but no one dared to look her in the eyes at this moment.

"Although what you said was very cryptic, I understand. You are not sure about the consequences of publishing the "Guide", so you want to wait and see."

"We are not completely 'waiting'. Last night's action is our attitude." Gobelin corrected, "Although this may be a little cruel to you, do I need to remind you that the reason we are in today's The desperate situation is precisely because Ms. Chiba insists on going her own way—"

"That is to say, last night, everyone here knew that there was a conspiracy against me on this ship. It's just that you didn't know that Goebbels was so desperate because the "Guidebook" required 'make every effort to return', is that right? .”

In the silence of the crowd, Bernhard half-turned around, "We are not. We were on standby on the third deck last night until we heard gunshots and came out to support. What happened during this period has nothing to do with us."
