Why it never ends

Chapter 514

"You just want to talk to me with a glass of wine?"

"...You said that alcohol is a cheating tool, so I'll try it." Hesta thought for a while, then turned to get the empty glass on the table, "Are you trying to say that one glass is not enough?"

"Enough," Anna pressed the cup, "I don't want to ask for trouble... What do you mean, Hesta, you want to make friends with me?"

"That's right," Hesta replied in a low voice, "the kind that won't admit it when you're sober."

Putina looked at Hesta in disbelief, and Anna also had a slightly surprised look on her face.

"...Okay," Anna nodded, "I like that statement."

Anna raised her glass and took a sip.

"When we drink, we are friends for a moment."

……

All of a sudden, there were sounds of vomiting in the toilet one after another, and the strong smell made Li Ke retreat. She slapped the back of her head with a palm, looking at this and that with a complicated expression... She didn't want to care about any of them.

Su Lei recounted in a low voice what she and Lico had met tonight. Hesta was lying on the bed with her face flushed, her eyes always closed.

"Who?"

She had just breathed a sigh of relief when she discovered a new problem—the smell of alcohol in the bed was obviously heavier.

Hesta looked at Si Lei, watching his expression change from calm to surprised, just like her reaction at the Hard Rock Bar tonight.

Li Ke put down the quilt and looked over, "What's the matter, Si Lei?"

Nearly two o'clock, Li Ke and Su Lei returned to the room. They were walking lightly at first, but when they opened the door, they found that the room was lit. There was no sign of Chiba at all.

Li Ke walked quickly to the bed, lifted a corner of the quilt, and soon saw a familiar red hair.

Si Lei's vomiting didn't stop when Li Ke suddenly heard a sound behind him.She turned her head and saw Hesta covering her head, stumbling towards this side.

……

"I didn't go into detail."

Su Lei couldn't speak, but just grabbed the edge of the sink.

These malice permeate each other, forming a mouthful of phlegm stuck in the throat, making people breathless.

"Did you hear what I just said?" Si Lei asked, "Or we can talk about it tomorrow. If you feel uncomfortable now, go to bed first."

"Could it be that the crew and guests tonight are all—"

"why?"

Su Lei sat down on the bed opposite Hesta, his eyes were distracted and his face was livid.

Su Lei focused his eyes, "But the report you found earlier didn't say—"

There was a strong smell of alcohol in the bathroom.

Si Lei got up and started pacing.

Hesta shook his head, "Probably not there, Rob said that this big man usually stays in the core city, and whether he can see him or not depends on which region he goes to."

"simple……?"

Li Ke spread his hands, "Only Anna knows that, but I know that some core cities can indeed reproduce the human body one-to-one, as long as the brain is still there."

"Did you drink...?" Li Ke was stunned, "No, where did we get the wine in our room?"

"I've heard it all..." Hesta murmured in a low voice, "I said 'youthful love', so it's 'youthful love'."

Hesta plopped and knelt down in front of the toilet, holding the toilet and vomited it out.

"I find it a little strange, too," said Hestad softly, "but Rob Grillet—I mean Rob Green, he claims that everyone who boards the ship has passed a certain test. I feel Rob is not a ruthless character, he is less courageous than Tanglar, when I chatted with him tonight, he confessed that the one who really created Eden was not him, but another 'big man' hidden behind the scenes."

"This has long gone beyond ordinary murders. This is a terrorist act targeting dissidents..." Su Lei said in a low voice, "If Anna is really imitating the assassination in the golden age—"

Hesta opened his eyes.

In all fairness, what she saw tonight was not the worst scene she had ever seen in her career, but thinking of the young love mentioned by the young man at the banquet, thinking of the diary left by Robeau Griller in the golden age, thinking of the first The first time I had a conversation with Anna under the Hard Rock Bar... She suddenly felt a mingled malice.

"I think so too," Hesta said in a low voice, "but Anna said that she was born on the eve of the golden age, and she was born in the same era as Roborgrillet."

"... Is it necessary? Even if the voyage is fully loaded, only seventy people can board. The accident at the port of Havre scared away half of the passengers, and less than half of the people actually boarded the ship. There aren't many sophisticated figures in the scene, but most of them are young people." Su Lei stopped, "For these less than [-] people, plan an assassination of the same scale?"

"Is this 'big shot' on board too?"

"Yes, the same cruise ship killing happened once in the golden age, but the instigator of that time was also Anna. In other words, this is not imitation, it is the same murderer committing crimes in succession...

By the time the three of them sat down again, it was almost three o'clock in the morning.

Taking care of people is really tiring.

Hesta was also unable to answer.

"Technically, it's not impossible," Li Ke looked at Si Lei, "Have you forgotten the document on ultra-long-distance travel? The one we found in Robbergrille's study tonight."

If only Turan was still here.

"Anna, that's Albertonica."

Su Lei stood up suddenly, rushed to the toilet in six or seven steps, and started throwing up at the sink.

"Didn't Jane say that Qianye would come over? She let us go again?" Li Ge frowned, "Where did the smell of alcohol come from? Someone came here to drink?"

"I have had this suspicion for a long time. When the bartender said that she was still a newcomer on the ship for ten years," Hesta replied, "She said at the time that most of the more than 200 people accompanying this time were It's old qualifications."

"I thought it was a copycat at first..." Hesta said suddenly, "but it's actually...not."

"Yes, she said it herself." Hesta suddenly realized something, "...Of course, she may be lying to me, but I believe this statement for the time being."

"...It's a bit exciting." Li Ke continued.

"She told you this?" Si Lei asked.

"Impossible?" Si Lei was stunned again, "This... this kind of thing——"

"simple?"

Su Lei recalled the severed mechanical hand that hit her on the third deck, and couldn't help shivering again.

"...It's okay," Su Lei replied intermittently, "It's just...disgusting."

"When you were in that study room at night, you still emphasized to me that you are a policeman, but you can't stand this kind of scene?"

"...So you not only met Anna tonight, but also Rob Griller." Li Ke suddenly realized, "Did these two people come to drink with you at the same time?"

"Well... I went out for a trip."

"one person?"

"One person," Hesta replied, "but you really don't have to worry, for us, the ship is really safe now."
