Why it never ends

"You want to say that Anna is the instigator?" Without waiting for Hesta to answer, Su Lei continued, "I am indeed prepared for this."

She glanced at the letter paper, pondered for a moment, "I don't want anyone to vouch for me, I plan to go directly to the banquet—what do you think?"

"Yes." Hesta said softly, "Lico will act with you tonight."

Going back to the elevator, Li Ke pressed 6, and the elevator quickly reached the sixth deck, but this time Su Lei didn't follow, but pressed -2 ​​along the way.

Su Lei waved to the two people outside the elevator, "I won't go to the meeting in the morning. I'll go down first to see if I can run into anyone, and then I'll go upstairs to check the surveillance cameras later. It may take a while."

"only you?"

"It's just right for one person. You are all in Bishop's restaurant at the moment. It is more convenient for me to move around."

"We can go together later—"

"No, that would be a waste of time. I'm just curious about what danger I might encounter." Su Lei pressed the door close button several times, "See you later."

Hesta and Rico watched the elevator doors slowly close.

The elevator slowly moved downwards, and the pointer moved back from 6 one by one, and finally stopped briefly at -2, then rose slowly, and finally stopped at 5.

"She's really cautious..." Li Ke withdrew his gaze and lowered his head, "No problem?"

"should be no problem."

The two walked to Bishop's restaurant.

"What are you going to say at the rally later?"

"Don't talk, just listen."

When approaching the entrance, Hesta suddenly heard voices inside, and it seemed that several people were arguing fiercely.

Hesta coughed, and the debate suddenly fell silent.

"You're here." The two men stood up from their seats, and Hesta recognized that they were the two candidates who had previously competed for the adjudicator—Adams and Fiance.

The expressions of the two were serious, even a little hostile.

Hesta quickly glanced at the crowd, but Goebbels was not here.

"I have a question, I hope you can explain it to us." Adams stepped forward, "The "Guidebooks" you posted yesterday—"

"did you see it yet?"

"Of course not." Adams raised his head slightly, showing a bit of stubbornness, "Mr. Goebbels warned us that reading such things without authorization is dangerous, and—"

"Who has seen it?" asked Hesta.

Among the crowd, Tasia involuntarily glanced in Helen's direction, but Helen didn't make any movements. In fact, no one raised their hands here.

Tasia's expression was complicated, and the hand that had been stretched out of the pocket was inserted back again.

"Look, no one looks at your stuff." Fayence said on the other side, "And you'd better explain why the rules you gave are completely different from Mr. Gobelin's?"

"I don't know what you mean by Gobelin's Guide," replied Hestad, "I'm posting the Guide I got. It doesn't say 'unauthorized reading' these rules would There's such a thing as danger."

"Then why does Mr. Gobelin say that?"

Not far away, Tasia raised her hand, "...do I have to ask Mr. Gobelin?"

Fiance looked back at Tasia: "I think the current adjudicator should confront the previous adjudicator."

"Yes, confront!" Adams echoed, "Some of these two must be lying!"

"This is responsible for everyone's lives, and Ms. Hesta must not refuse."

"Why are you so aggressive?" Tasia said again, trying to calm the situation down, "Anyway—"

"Anyway, those young men all died under Gobelin's tenure," Helen interrupted, "Gustav was going to die too, but he was saved by Mercury Needle. Who took it yesterday? Invitation to death? Rene?"

"By the way, where's Rene?" someone asked.

Everyone looked at Hesta together, and they belatedly remembered that they hadn't seen René since yesterday.

Hesta still didn't speak, but Helen stood up, "I tend to think that René is still alive. He may have found a way to escape safely, or he may have received some pointers—"

"He might be dead too!" Adams corrected emphatically.

"Anyway, we haven't seen Rene's corpse until now. Aren't the corpses of the first few people very eye-catching, and they were discovered immediately?"

Adams frowned.

"In other words, since these mercury needles really started to intervene, no one has died on board." Helen folded her arms, "Don't look at me, I haven't read any "Detailed Rules", I just analyzed what I thought of. Just come out. Talk about your thoughts, isn’t it against the law?”

"What do you mean?"

"It's nothing interesting. I just think this meeting is boring and I want to go back." Helen smiled. "Givey was ill yesterday. When I took him to the infirmary, the nurse told me that there is no place on this ship that is safer than the cabin. Stay in the cabin every day, come out to participate in some daytime activities every now and then, and the trip will be safe."

In an instant, the expressions of several people present all flashed strangely.

Tasia didn't dare to look into other people's eyes. She remembered the rule she heard when she parted from Helen yesterday, and suddenly realized that Helen might already be practicing it—but Tasia didn't write those words on the whiteboard Found in the rest of the rules.

"What nonsense!" Adams was not convinced. "Is it safe to be like an ostrich?"

"What do you say, Tasia?"

Suddenly being called by Helen's name, Tasia's back straightened up.

"what did I say?"

"Say what, say what you want to say," Helen said with a smile, "Don't you have nothing to say?"

"..." Tasia shook her head.

"Give." Helen looked at the man beside him covered in bandages, "Did the nurse say that last night?"

The man named Givy was trembling, and Hesta recognized that he was the follower who always followed Helen before—the man who had just handed the ship card into his hand last night.

What's wrong... He must have been beaten up by Helen.

"Yes," Givey said with a trembling voice, "the nurse said we'd better take the elevator back together, otherwise it won't be safe at night."

Tasia was dumbfounded.

Helen and Givie have already stated two rules in one breath.

If there is another person...

Gustav slowly raised his hand.

"What's the matter?" Helen looked at him, "You also have something to say?"

"Mr. Givey just mentioned the elevator at night." Gustav smiled a little stiffly, "I suddenly thought of daytime, daytime, like this time—"

"...At this time like now, we usually ask if anyone has received a new death invitation." Tasia interrupted Gustav, "This is the most important question now, isn't it? "

The crowd fell silent, and everyone waited for a raised hand, but it didn't come for a long time.

"Don't worry," Hesta finally broke the silence, "Today is Su Lei."
