Why it never ends

Chapter 532 Hang Up
Li Ke got up upon hearing this, and she patted Si Lei on the shoulder, "You continue to call him, I'll go up and have a look."

Su Lei nodded.

"Don't be afraid," Si Lei said into the microphone, "Li Ke has already passed. What's going on, where did you get the earrings?"

"Helen asked me to wear it... She said, if you don't wear it, you will die if you come here... I... I don't know where she got it... I remember that Ms. Li Ge said that this thing can't be worn... But, But I..." Gustave choked up, "Can I secretly pick them off?"

"Not yet," Si Lei said hastily, "If no one is embarrassing you now, just pretend you don't know anything and don't change anything."

"But I'm afraid..."

"Calm down, Gustav."

With the microphone on his side, Su Lei got up and took a quick glance at the "Details" beside him. She remembered that there were some regulations related to the night banquet in the second half of the night activity suggestion, and perhaps some of them could help him avoid some dangers.

"Has Ms. Lico come over?"

"Yes, she has already gone out and will be there soon." Su Lei replied again, "There are several rules in the "Detailed Rules" that are related to your current situation——"

Looking at each other, Su Lei gritted his teeth.

"I brought you back." Li Ke replied, "...you don't want to drink anymore."

"...Officer Su Lei, are you listening?"

"Something may have happened to Gustav." Su Lei said with a heavy expression, "He... went to a banquet last night."

"Yes," Si Lei said in a low voice, "I'll come over now too, okay? Don't hang up the phone, I'll put the microphone on the table, talk to me from time to time, don't argue with other people at the banquet .”

"Terrible, this ship."

The crying cut Gustav's every sentence into intermittent fragments, which sounded a little unclear.

There was silence in the room save for the background noise on the other end of the phone.

These noises from the microphone were too harsh in this silent room. Half asleep and half awake, Hesta reached out to the table. She didn't even open her eyes, and grasped the source of the annoying voice.

"Rico." Hesta gently arched Rico's head, "Wake up..."

"Why do these things always haunt me... I obviously didn't do anything..."

Gustav's murmurs continued to come from the microphone.

With a "click", the microphone was put back on the landline.

Su Lei's face changed slightly, and he immediately covered the phone receiver so that Gustav on the other end would not hear their conversation.

Su Lei wondered inwardly: 7 minutes have passed, from here to the hidden deck upstairs, it should take less than 1 minute at Lico's speed...why there is no news until now.

"Why hasn't Ms. Li Ke come here yet, what should I do now..."

Hesta sat on the bed with a confused expression, "Anna sent me back last night...?"

……

"Officer Su Lei, Ms. Li Ge, come quickly... Please, don't make me wait too long..."

She lowered her voice, "Why are you back?"

She opened her eyes drowsily, and saw Si Lei lying on another bed with all his clothes on, and Li Ge lying next to her. Although the two of them were asleep, their brows were wrinkled, and they looked very tired.

In the darkness, Hesta suddenly turned over.

...According to the practice these days, everyone should have gathered at Bishop's Restaurant to meet.

"...so you two stayed up all night."

Hesta's gaze turned to Su Lei, who was looking at the slippers at his feet without saying a word, with a dazed expression.

"Don't be too anxious." Li Ke continued, "I just came back to tell you that if there is no one above, I will go to other places to continue searching. There are so many people in such a big venue, it is impossible not to find——"

"He?" Hesta was even more surprised, "Didn't it be Helen's turn last night?"

"There is no one upstairs." Li Ke whispered, "I searched all over, but there is no one there, and there is no banquet."

"But anyway, it's great that you can come to me...Although I'm scared...but when I think of you and Ms. Rico on the way to save me, I-"

Gustav was still rambling on, without any logic in his words, just asking "When will Ms. Lico arrive?" from time to time.

"Huh? Have we changed places!"

Su Lei put the microphone on the table, and immediately left the room with Li Ge.

Just as Li Ke was about to answer, he yawned again.

"Not upstairs?"

At this moment, she suddenly remembered—the "Detailed Rules" are useless to Gustav, he is a dangerous passenger.

Li Ke struggled to open her eyes, she glanced at the wall clock, and immediately turned over and sat up.

Hesta glanced at the wall—ten twenty-seven.

Su Lei's throat moved, and she raised the phone again, with the same voice as before: "Hold the phone, don't hang up, your address has changed tonight, Li Ke will take a little longer to get there."

Hesta's gaze slowly shifted to Lico—both her and Su Lei's complexions were dim, and their eye sockets were bruised, as if it wasn't Hesta who was hungover last night, but the two of them.

"I'm convinced." Li Ke rubbed his face and walked to the toilet, "It feels like these half a month is not a vacation at sea at all, but a sleep deprivation experiment on a boat..."

Gustav's voice came from the receiver.

Suddenly, Si Lei's words stopped.

"Are you washing up, Officer Sulei?" Hesta called again, "Sleiman?"

"Washing up?"

The world became quiet again.

"Okay, okay..."

"We forced her to ask where the dinner party was last night, but she said she didn't know, so there was nothing we could do." Li Ke looked at Si Lei, "Then Si Lei and I found someone after three o'clock, and I said no, Had to go back to sleep, we just got back."

"Si Lei..." Li Ge pushed open the door with a solemn expression.

"Si Lei!" Li Ke lifted his foot and kicked Si Lei's hand stretched out of the bed, "Get up!"

Suddenly, she heard familiar footsteps outside the door.

"...you two, what did you do last night?"

Su Lei didn't answer.

The next morning, Hesta woke up with a splitting headache.

"Helen came back alone after one o'clock. I don't know where she came from," Li Ke continued. "The banquet last night was changed to a different place, not on the hidden deck upstairs."

Su Lei raised his head, "...What did you talk about with Anna last night?"

Hesta blinked, and at this moment she found that Su Lei's eyes were bloodshot again.

"It's nothing important," Hesta lowered his head, "I didn't ask any questions last night."

"Why on earth did she attack these people?" Si Lei's words did not fluctuate, "Gustav is only 15 years old...he is not even an adult yet."
