Why it never ends

Chapter 550 The Arbiter Game

"……why?"

"Because I only registered my name when I made the appointment," Anna replied as a matter of course, "They probably won't be able to take two people away at the same time."

Tasia was even more flustered.

"...Do you want to make an appointment when you come here to read a book?"

"Of course," Anna replied, "Living in this place, you should abide by the rules a little bit..."

Just as she was speaking, a crew member opened the door from the outside. She greeted Anna and Tasia, and then came behind Anna, pushing her wheelchair to go out.Tasia stepped forward to ask if she could bring herself along, but she was rejected.

Before going out, Anna suddenly remembered something. She turned her head and said to the crew behind her, "You should find someone to look at her feet."

Tasia glanced down, her feet were already swollen a little exaggeratedly.But at the moment these physical pains are the least of her concern.

"Just a moment, ma'am," the crew member turned back, "I'll be back soon."

"……I understand."

Rico approached with light steps, and soon found an entrance at the other end of the confinement room—and Hesta was sitting in a certain glass room behind.

In the item name column, Hesta filled in a lot of things, the first line wrote "ship card number 62", and the storage time on the form was 11:00 to 12:00 tonight, the initiator And the guarantor is Hesta himself.

Rico was stunned for a while.

On the other side, Rico searched for a long time according to the address given by Hesta, and finally came to the confinement room where Bernhard was previously imprisoned.

"The crux of the problem is not at all the "Rules" to be followed, nor is it in the hands of any guardian, even if some guardians usually seem to be quite authoritative—for example, Helen, but her authority can only be established on her risky passengers. As long as she touched the Adjudicator's reverse scale, she would still be imprisoned and punished.

"Why?" Rico asked.

"Can't you really take me with you? I can follow you—"

"That's right, that's not right." Hesta nodded, "Because not everything can be listed as 'prohibited and restricted items', look at the few things I wrote later..."

As soon as they met, Li Ge asked in amazement: "...Why did you arrest Helen directly and didn't call me?"

"I'm afraid, on our ship, whoever controls the security check has the real power..."

"And I confirmed with the crew just now that tonight's security inspection is a category A inspection. Do you remember that there are three types of security inspections on board: adjudicator change, category S; security personnel clearing risks, category A; crew violations, category D. In other words, tonight’s security inspection was completely initiated by the current adjudicator—that is, me.”

"I didn't catch the person." Hesta's eyes were full of undisguised excitement, "but now I finally understand where the adjudicator's privilege is."

"Yes," Hesta tapped the table lightly, "then, at exactly eleven o'clock in the evening, this ship card was placed in front of me, and Helen who was carrying the ship card was imprisoned—because she carried it with her. Prohibited items.

"You sit first."

After thinking about it for a while, Li Ke suddenly understood——

Speaking of this, Hesta suddenly thought.Thunder and lightning flashed across the sea of ​​her chaotic thoughts, and everything suddenly became clear.

Tasia stayed where she was, and suddenly felt that the dim waiting room had become gloomy again.

"where?"

Rico took the blank paper.

"At noon, Tasia said that she saw Helen carrying this ship card with her own eyes," Hesta said softly, "so I used it to see what this form is useful for."

Anna left anyway.

Li Ke glanced at Hesta: "...you directly listed Gustav's ship card as a prohibited and restricted item?"

"This is for your safety," the crew member replied seriously, "please wait for me to come back."

Hesta continued: "Before Gobelin said that once the adjudicator leaves office, he will automatically quit the game by default. This rule is not so much to protect the safety of the adjudicator, but to completely hide this, so that this The game goes on—”

Knowing the ship card number, you can use the security check to take away the person's ship card; if you take the ship card away, you can go directly to register risky passengers-after all, the ship card is the only valid identification for the entire journey.

"This pile of things..." Li Ke pointed to the knives and guns on the table, "They all belong to Helen?"

Li Ke picked up the several ship cards to check - the number of one of them was exactly 62.

"Amazing……"

"That is to say... as long as you set your sights on something, you can force him over?"

"As long as I know a person's ship card number, then whoever I want to become a risk passenger is a risk passenger."

"It's not clear. It may be that the category of prohibited and restricted items is limited, or my description is not specific enough..." Hesta paused for a while, "But anyway, the ship card with the specified number is valid... see Up, I can also dictate where this thing is stored: I want it in front of me, it is in front of me, I want it somewhere else, so it will be there.”

"Yes, here are all her belongings." Hesta pushed a blank piece of paper in front of Lico's eyes, "This is the storage list of prohibited and restricted items that I just submitted at night, take a look."

Rico pulled out a chair and sat next to Hesta. Only then did she notice that there were two piles of sundries on the table, one of which contained several ship cards, keys, door cards, some Band-Aids, two pistols, and Five switchblade knives, and another pile of coasters that can be found everywhere in some restaurants, but in different patterns.

Lico glanced down, and under the "ship card numbered 62", Hesta also filled in "Helen's ship card", "Helen's own ship card", "Bernhard's "Detailed Rules and Safety Edition" "Manual" several things, there are red approvals at the end of these lines of forms: rejected.

"It's nothing," Hesta's eyes sparkled, "do you know where it's more powerful?"

Before she got close, she heard the sound of Helen knocking on the door, and the sounds of kicking and hitting continued, mixed with Helen's constant inquiries, "Is anyone there? Damn it!"

And the vast majority of passengers don't even associate the security check with the adjudicator.

"I don't understand," Li Ke raised his hand, "What does continuing the game have to do with hiding the privileges from the adjudicator?"

……

"How to say?"

"What do you understand?"

"Anna lied to me...Anna lied to me again!" Hesta clenched his fists, "This is not a journey to domesticate guardians at all... Even if it were, it would not be the main purpose of Roborglieu !"

"……why?"

"In the eyes of the adjudicator, there is no difference between these guardians and risky passengers. I think Roborgrille wants to pick his heir in the highest tribute, and see who can quickly grasp the main idea in this game..." Hesta looked at Lico, "It should be said that this is the game of the adjudicator."
