Why it never ends

Rico's expression was obviously stunned for a moment, and Hesta caught the momentary change, "What's wrong?"

"I just think...it's very interesting," Li Ge lay flat on the chair again, "Their status in this group of people is not high, why do they refuse to obey?"

"It seems that I can't use 'obedience' to sum it up..." Hesta frowned and pondered, "Tasia has always respected Su Lei, and it hasn't changed. She obviously didn't like Helen either—later, she didn't like me either. "

"What's the reason?" Li Ke looked over.

Hesta didn't speak. At this moment, she suddenly thought of many possibilities, but no matter which one, she couldn't think of an immediate way to change it.

……

On the other side of the negative second deck, Fayence stood in front of a public phone with Gustav and Jacqueline.

He kept changing his phone number, but no one answered. He had clearly made an appointment with several cronies, but it seemed that none of these people had arrived at a fixed place to wait.

He cursed and hung up the phone severely.

"Are you okay?" Jacqueline asked with concern, but her voice was obviously disturbed.

Fayance ignored it, he stared at the phone fixed on the wall, his eyes were so hard that they seemed to jump out of their sockets.

After hesitating for a moment, he directly dialed the number of Bishop's restaurant.

"Hello, Bishop Restaurant on the sixth deck, how can I help you?"

"Hello...I want to find someone," Fayence's throat moved, "Is Mr. Abram here, um, he is tall, with a scar on the left side of his face, blond hair, he is very young, today Probably wearing a sky blue suit—what? Isn’t there one in the restaurant? Well, what about Mr. Breuer, he’s a little older, maybe 26, and he’s also wearing a sky blue suit... "

Fayence mentioned the names and characteristics of the four people one after another, but the waiter shook his head one by one, saying that there was no corresponding passenger in the restaurant at the moment.

"Something's wrong," Fayance put down the phone and looked back at Jacqueline, "Go up and have a look."

Jacqueline's face changed slightly, "...Me?"

"Otherwise, shall I send it to Hesta to catch?" Looking at Jacqueline's frightened face, Fayence adjusted his tone, "I can't show up directly until the matter is clear."

"But yesterday's explosion, I was the one who went to find Su Lei..." Jacqueline stumbled and said, "If they find me—"

"Then you can't be careful, don't let them find out!" Fayence pulled Jacqueline to his side, he stared intently into Jacqueline's eyes, their faces were almost touching, "Listen, you go to Bishop's Restaurant first, see if our people are still there, find out what happened, and then go to the backstage of the Grace Theater and wait for my call—"

"Don't leave me alone, please..."

"Listen!" Fayence interrupted Jacqueline loudly, "As soon as you leave, I will also leave here immediately, and I will let you know on the phone where we meet next, Jacqueline, cheer up !"

"I don't!!" Jacqueline screamed, "I don't!! You swore you could protect me!! Now you want me to die—"

Fayence covered Jacqueline's mouth, and pushed her hard against the stone wall behind her. Jacqueline felt severe pain in the back of her head and shoulders at the same time. She could not make a sound, and slid slowly on the ground.

Fayance's eyes were also red. He raised his head and let out a long sigh, then sat down on the ground.

"It won't stop here. As long as the game is not over, it means there must be a turning point, but I haven't thought of it yet..."

Jacqueline's vision was a bit blurred, and she was hugged by Fayance before she could realize what happened.

"Sorry, Jacqueline, I was too excited just now, yes, I said I would protect you, I will think of a way, maybe there are other ways..."

Countless chaotic emotions are intertwined, she has no strength to perceive, she just feels infinitely tired, but tiredness brings peace, peace drowns fear, she closes her eyes, enjoying this short moment of safety, as if everything that has happened in the past and will be in the future What happened is not important anymore. The two hugged each other, kissed and cried bitterly, as if their souls were also merged into one.

Not far away, Gustav, whose hands and feet were bound and whose mouth was tightly pressed, watched this scene in horror. He tried his best to raise his head and turn over, looking at the occasional figures flashing in the distance—they were some passing by from time to time. The crew, they passed by from a distance, and they didn't even take a second look at this side.

About a quarter of an hour later, Jacqueline left, and Fayence returned to Gustav.

"Okay, young man, let's go, this place can't stay for a while."

There was a hoarse grunt from Gustav's throat, and Fayence slapped him, causing Gustav's ears to ring.

Gustav fell limply to the ground, feeling the tape off his mouth.

"If you have anything to say, say it now, in a low voice," Fayence said in a low voice, "If you still dare to bark in a while, I will kill you."

"Mr. Fayence..." Gustav was furious, "I really... don't deserve you... to carry it all the time."

Fayence laughed, his voice was low and powerful, as if the one who was crying with Jacqueline just now was a completely different person.

"Helen is your guardian, and Su Lei is also willing to be your guardian. Boy, I have to say that you are quite capable."

"Helen is... not my guardian anymore," Gustav said with tears, "Officer Sulei has also died in the explosion... I am now an ordinary passenger, Mr. Fiance, do you know, In fact, when I voted, I voted for you—"

Gustav hadn't finished speaking when he was kicked in the heart by Fiance. His whole face was contorted and he was almost out of breath.

"I've already become a risky passenger, but are you still thinking about being an ordinary passenger?"

Gustav gasped, "Anyway, Mr. Fiance... we, we are... companions—"

Fayence sneered, and he patted Gustav's fleshy face: "You deserve it too?"

Then, Fayence sealed Gustav's mouth again, carried him on his shoulders, and both of them quickly disappeared at the end of the corridor.

……

At night, Agnes and Meyer spread out the bedding in the Bishop's Dining Room with all surviving passengers.

The crew thoughtfully prepared tents and various nightlights, but in this situation, no one is in the mood to do these at all. Most people only need the simplest mattresses and quilts—once there is any disturbance here, just turn over the quilts. can run.

The Bishop restaurant was brightly lit, and Agnes and Meyer did not fall asleep. The two sat around the table and studied the "Guide" full of various rules and regulations.

Just after 08:30, a strange crew member pushed open the door of the dining room, and she walked straight to Agnes without opening her mouth.

"Ma'am, I'm here to pick you up for tonight's banquet."
