Chapter 457
"You seem to be looking forward to an answer from me... But unfortunately, Ms. Hesta, I really don't know what you are talking about." Gobelin looked at the silver spoon in his hand, and said in a low voice, "If you say There is really a behind-the-scenes manipulator on our voyage, and I can only think that everything is arranged by Yarek."

"Alek? ​​You are optimistic enough," Hesta almost laughed out loud, "I thought only the thorn monks believed in this, so you believe it too."

"It seems that you are not impressed by this story?"

"Okay, even if it's Alec's arrangement," Hesta said softly, "Then Alek obviously wants you to die now, what do you think?"

"It's nothing." Gobelin didn't change his expression. "This was originally one of the many ordeals we were destined to go through."

Hesta raised her eyebrows slightly, "...remarkable."

Bernhard frowned when he heard this—every word Hesta said sounded like yin and yang, and he didn't know where the mercury needle, who could only sit in a wheelchair at the moment, got the confidence, just because she was beside her. There is also a lively Lico?

"Ah," cried Hesta stiffly, "have I been too long?"

"...27 minutes," Gobelin looked at his watch, "you must have come at this time."

"It's just a coincidence." Hesta shook his head, "Lico, let's go back."

Just as Lico was about to push Hesta to turn around, Gobelin suddenly stood up, "Ms. Hesta."

"Ok?"

"I have a curiosity, just a curiosity. If you don't want to, you don't have to answer." Gobelin lowered his voice, "Who is the manipulator behind the whole thing in your mind?"

Hesta waved him, beckoning him to come closer.

Gobelin bent down and heard Hesta whispering softly:

"Alecto."

……

When Hesta returned to her original position, Anna appeared again.

She was still sitting in her wheelchair, looking in the direction of Su Lei and Tasia. When Hesta passed by her, Anna narrowed her eyes and showed a kind smile.

Not far away, Tasia walked to the front of the crowd, and everyone fell silent immediately.

Tasia could feel her hands trembling. In order to avoid being noticed, she didn't hold the outline in her hand like Adams did, but walked to the center of everyone's eyes empty-handed.

Tasia took a deep breath and spoke the first sentence, and almost at the same moment, she coughed hard.

Things didn't get better, and Tasia soon found that her voice was trembling close to crying, especially at the end of every sentence-the more the breath ended, the more she couldn't control it.

A suppressed low laugh came from the right back, and Tasia knew it was Bernhard without turning her head. On the other side, Adams was imitating her tone in a low voice. An Si forced himself not to make a sound, but his face was flushed.

Tasia stood where she was, trying to drive the sounds and images out of her mind, but she soon realized that her face was burning, and this insight brought great embarrassment in an instant.

Tasia's voice began to become intermittent, and the volume gradually decreased, and finally fell completely silent on a long sentence that got stuck.

The laughter around them also quieted down, and everyone exchanged glances, waiting with great interest.

"...I'm sorry." Tasia lowered her head and ran towards the bathroom suddenly.

A man in the crowd got up immediately. He took out five or six tissues on the table with both hands, and chased after him calling "Miss Tasia". Bernhard looked at his back and cursed, then slapped the table. Laughing loudly, "Good boy, you really know how to pick your time, and after a long time, you can finally take advantage of him!"

On the other side, Adams whistled, "Why did Philip chase him out alone! Are you guys still men?"

"Then why don't you chase after him?"

"...Miss Tasia is not my type," Adams half-opened his eyes, with a meaningful smile on his face, "Mature men don't like slender beauties, wait until you guys grow up You'll know when you're older."

The young men hissed at him.

A woman who ran away crying made the whole dull and sad hall suddenly relaxed. Many people smiled and looked in the direction Tasia left. Since Dietrich's body was found in the Grace Theater, Hesta It was the first time I saw these people showing such vivid smiling faces.

Amidst the laughter, Hesta looked at Anna, "Does it look good?"

"Huh?" Anna looked innocent, "What do you mean?"

"Didn't you say there is a good show?" Hesta said softly, "Or, is this the play you like?"

Anna laughed silently, and she even coughed a few times because she laughed so hard.

"what's so funny……"

"Sometimes the show is not good because the audience hasn't learned how to appreciate it," Anna looked forward. "For example, over there... Did you see that woman sitting there without saying a word?"

Hesta followed Anna's gaze and turned his head, "You mean Su Lei?"

"You can call her Su Lei, but it doesn't matter. It's Su Lei today, and someone else tomorrow... What matters is their faces," Anna said softly, "Did you see her expression?"

Anna raised her hands and made a picture frame. The tired Su Lei fell unconsciously in Anna's frame.

"A good person, a brave person, a... noble person with ideals in mind." Anna paused, she frowned with a smile, "Why does such a person always find the wrong place for him?"

"..."

"Don't you think it's strange, Hesta, don't you have such people around you? It shouldn't be so, after all, such examples abound... Are you never curious about what their minds are usually thinking about?"

Hesta looked at Su Lei. Among the noisy faces, only Su Lei's face remained tense.

Her silence separates her from everyone around her...

A distinct and solitary outlier.

"People always like to ask for trouble, and in the end they blame fate for being cruel..."

Anna suddenly remembered something, turned her face sideways, her fingers framed from far to near, and finally aimed at Hesta.

"Look, you are very smart. You knew from the very beginning that this kind of excitement should not be joined in."

Hesta came back to her senses, and she gave Anna a disgusted look, but said nothing.

Anna lowered her hands, "Why do you seem to be upset again, isn't what I said good?"
