Why it never ends

Chapter 416 Inevitably
"I have built several temporary settlements over there, and I may need to replace a batch of supplies next year, but it is no problem to live in most of the settlements for two or three days-speaking of which, there are many small settlements built in the forest over there Wooden houses, however, the locals not only never approach them themselves, but also strongly warn tourists and travelers to stay away from them, do you know why?"

Hesta didn't answer.

Rico lowered his head and found that Hesta had fallen asleep.

Rico wrapped Hesta's quilt tightly again, and sat back on his seat.

Outside the window, dawn is coming.

……

At ten minutes to nine in the morning, most of the passengers had already arrived at Bishop's restaurant one after another. Everyone found that there were a lot of people who were absent today. Among the people who have left a deep impression on you these days are Sister Agnes, the red-haired Quicksilver, Bree and the two young men who took care of him, Sule... and Goebbels himself.

Since Gobelin always likes to show up every minute on important occasions, everyone is not particularly nervous about this.

The government soldiers who swarmed into the restaurant yesterday also disappeared without a trace today. Only Bernhard sat silently at the table by the window, with his arms folded and his eyes closed.

In the corridor outside Bishop's restaurant, René walked towards the entrance with a stern mouth.

"Mr. Bloomberg?"

Rene turned his head and saw Rico pushing Hesta towards this side from the end of the corridor.

René hurriedly took off his hat and hugged it in his arms. He quickly walked towards Hesta and bowed slightly, "Hi! Ms. Hesta! Hello, Ms. Rico! Just call me René."

"Morning, Rene."

Hesta looked gentle and seemed to be in a good mood, René also smiled, "You too!"

"The accident yesterday didn't frighten you, did it?"

"Yesterday..." Rene was startled, and quickly realized that the expression on his face immediately became a little sad, "It's a pity that I can't contact my friends here, I had nightmares all night last night... Sigh, I don't know when this voyage will end."

"How could it be so unfortunate?"

René bent down and leaned close to Hesta's ear, he frowned tightly, "This is absolutely inevitable."

"How to say?"

Just as Rene was about to speak, he suddenly caught a glimpse of the elevator going up not far away. He smiled, "Can I have the honor of being at the same table with you today?"

Hesta didn't speak, but just made a "please" gesture.

The three of them entered the restaurant, and a few men waved at René from a distance. René walked straight towards them, turning his head from time to time, smiling at Hesta and Rico.

The square table that could only accommodate six people seemed a bit cramped due to the arrival of Rico and Hesta. René took the initiative to move his seat to the corner. Star's wheelchair was pushed to the main seat, and the men next to him hurriedly moved their chairs, one of them brought a new chair from the empty table next to him, and respectfully invited Rico to sit down.

"What do you and Ms. Rico want to eat, I'll get it." Rene asked.

"I'd like a hard-boiled egg, two muffins, a bowl of cereal, half cheese, half a passion fruit... and some slices of ham and two spoonfuls of jam."

"I don't care," Li Ke propped his cheeks, "You take a little of everything."

"Okay." Rene said and trotted to the dining area, leaving a table of men looking at each other, not knowing what to say.

"Are you all René's friends?" Hesta asked.

The men nodded cautiously, some of them hesitated, and kept glancing in René's direction.

"What's their names?"

No one answered immediately, and at this moment, there was a sound of broken glassware in the distance——Rene was holding two plates like a juggler, and although he tried his best to maintain the balance of his hands, everything was still too much Difficult, the milk and oatmeal in the middle of the dinner plate suddenly fell over, and even knocked over the square pan holding the fried eggs in his hand.

Hesta glanced back, René sensed the gaze, and smiled shyly towards this side. He was too lazy to deal with the chaos he caused, but hurriedly brought over the plate belonging to Rico, and then quickly returned to fetch dining area.

Rico started eating unceremoniously. The rest of the people watched the scene and began to whisper their names. Hesta listened expressionlessly. Although she didn't remember any of them, everyone said Finished, she still nodded.

The time pointed to nine o'clock, and Gobelin arrived on time. Many people stopped talking at this time, and the whole restaurant was quiet for a while, but Gobelin didn't give any extra reaction. He turned towards Bernhard The table they were at walked over, and then the two got up to take the meal together.

The crowd resumed their dull din.

René returned to the table with the dinner plate. Although his own plate was still empty, René seemed to have no intention of getting up again. He pulled the chair under him forward a few times and said with a smile: "Sorry for being late gone."

Almost at the same moment, a man sitting on the other side of the table put down the knife and fork in his hand and walked towards the dining area. After a while, he put a plate full of food in front of René with both hands.

This strict and tacit order caused Hesta to look sideways for a moment. At this moment, she seemed to have become the highest-ranking person on the table—René offered his almost obsequious hospitality, and at the same time, he also enjoyed the hospitality from others. attentive.

"With so many of you boarding the boat together, did your family and friends object?" Hesta asked.

"We can't talk about it together," René laughed twice, "we only met for the first time when we got on the boat, but we are all people who have been sponsored by Mr. Robeau Griller for a long time, so we can talk in many places .”

"...you've never seen it before?"

"No."

Hesta was surprised for a moment. She folded a muffin and said nothing.

René glanced back in the direction of Goebbels, who was having a serious conversation with Bernhard.

"Look," René said in a low voice, "someone is about to ride on M. Robeauglier."

"You mean Gobelin?"

"He's a total villain, Ms. Hestad."

"I've heard Bree say that remark yesterday—"

"Bree is an idiot."

Hesta glanced at René admiringly, and René hurriedly continued the previous words, "How can things like guns be released casually, especially in this place where everyone is in danger... Even someone like me who has touched a gun before can't stand to make mistakes when nervous, let alone other people."

"What did you mean by 'necessarily'?"

"Yes, accidental injury will happen sooner or later, as long as everyone still holds weapons in their hands—"

"I'll ask you a question, and you should answer me honestly," Hesta put down the spoon, "Did you misfire yesterday, or did you do it on purpose?"
