Why it never ends

On Monday morning, it was still bright outside, and Yu Xuekun was already sitting in the consultation room.

The orange light illuminated the whole room, and she was writing on the table with her head down.

In the other corner of the room, Hesta was curled up on a lounge chair, covered with half a flower blanket.The recliner rocked gently, and Hesta closed her eyes, seemingly asleep.

Yu Xuekun glanced at the clock on the wall and whispered, "It's already six-twenty."

Hesta opened her eyes slightly, but still did not speak.

Yu Xuekun closed the pen cap, took out a brown envelope from the drawer, and put the congratulatory letter he had just written into it.

"No matter what questions you ask later, our conversation will end on time at six fifty."

"Didn't you say before that you didn't have much work during this period?" Hestad was curious for a moment, "Why are you so busy all of a sudden?"

"I didn't say I was busy at work."

"what are you busy with?"

"I have a friend who is renovating a store recently, and I have to go there and help him in the morning." Yu Xuekun replied, "Then I bought a ticket for a drama. It is divided into two parts and will be screened for two days in a row, starting in the afternoon every day. The performance lasts from one o'clock to eight o'clock in the evening... I really can't get away - of course, if you encounter any trouble, I will definitely give priority to your end."

Hesta laughed when she heard this, "I'll try not to disappoint you. What kind of store does your friend open?"

"It's hard to define yet... It should be a yoga studio," Yu Xuekun replied, "But there is a small underground theater underneath their place, and she also bought it. Maybe there will be other businesses after it opens."

"Your friend's surname is not Wu, right?"

"...his real surname is Wu," Yu Xuekun raised his head, "Do you know him?"

When Hesta talked about what happened yesterday afternoon, Yu Xuekun couldn't help but sigh, "The world is really small."

Thinking of what happened yesterday, Hesta became dazed again. She stroked the armrest of the lounge chair with her left hand and began to pick out the burrs on the back of the board.

"...Can I come to your place more often in the future? It doesn't matter if you're not here, I'll just come and sit."

"why?"

"I feel very relaxed when I enter this room," Hesta said softly, "You can have a good rest."

Yu Xuekun laughed.

"No."

Hesta breathed out and fell silent again.

"Since you have nothing to say for now, let me ask you a few questions." Yu Xuekun stood up, lifted a stool and sat next to Hesta, "How is it? Is the dishwasher repaired?"

"It's fixed," Hesta's voice said without much fluctuation, "but... it may not be of much use."

"how to say?"

"Many of the tableware and pots they use at home cannot be put into the dishwasher." Hestad closed her eyes again. "In the past two days, I can clearly feel that Ms. Xu is trying hard to make the dishwasher work... I suspect I may have added a little extra work to her workload - so as not to disappoint me, she now has to prepare a special batch of dishes for the dishwasher."

At this point, Hesta turned her head.

"You know, the day after I moved into that home, Ding Yuqing reminded me not to help, but I didn't listen."

Yu Xuekun smiled slightly.

"You were nearly half an hour late for evening class last Thursday. Why?"

"...you know this too?"

"I've told you a long time ago that everything you say and do here is being monitored," Yu Xuekun looked as usual, "Tell me, a mercury needle like you should know how to be punctual." "At that time... there were Special case."

Hesta briefly mentioned the scene that evening.

Once she started to recall, Hesta found that the memory in her mind was so clear - she could even easily recall the color of the carpet that afternoon, the shapes of the fragments in different locations... These details were deeply engraved in her mind, No fading at all.

"You just sat in the living room until [-]:[-] in the afternoon?" Yu Xuekun asked.

"Ah."

"Why do you have to stand there alone?"

"I'm a little... worried." Hesta looked at the glass window in front, blinking slowly a few times, "I'm afraid that she... will hurt herself."

The pen in Yu Xuekun's hand began to move rapidly across the paper.

"Did you call other family members at that time?"

"...No." Hesta was stunned for a moment. She later realized that there was such a choice and burst out laughing. "It's strange, I didn't think of this at the time."

"Next time you encounter something like this, don't interfere anymore." Yu Xuekun said softly, "You just need to report the crisis situation you discovered to other family members as soon as possible and let the family members of the person involved handle these matters."

"Okay." Hestad lowered his eyes slightly, "I remember."

Yu Xuekun looked at the person in front of him, "If you were asked to rate this half-week of life, one point would be very bad and five points would be very comfortable. How would you rate it?"

"very."

Yu Xuekun was a little surprised, "The highest score is——"

"I know," Hesta turned her head and looked at her, "I want to say that my life is indeed very good now."

The two looked at each other, and Yu Xuekun stared seriously into Hesta's eyes.

"But you look a little in pain now."

"It should be said that everyone around me is in great pain. Compared with them, my life is really good...even too good." Hesta finally began to adjust her sitting posture, and she looked at the chandelier on the ceiling. , a little confusion gradually appeared in his eyes, "But every time I ask them what's wrong, they will tell me that they are fine, they are fine."

"...Is this true for everyone?"

"Maybe, except for Eleven."

Hesta stood up from the recliner and began pacing back and forth in the room.

"Eugali's uncle came to Orange Town last week. Do you know about this?"

"I know." Yu Xuekun replied, "She called me on Thursday and asked if the one-bedroom apartment she lives in now can allow another person to live in. She has a relative who plans to come to Orange Town to find a job and plans to borrow the apartment. Stay at her place.”

"Her uncle is coming to Orange Town to live permanently!?"

"No, it's not her uncle. It seems to be another cousin, about the same age as her, male." Yu Xuekun replied, "I guess it's her cousin - her uncle's son, or something like that."

"When will this person come -"

"This person will not come over, and will not move to her residence once she comes." Yu Xuekun replied, "Yugali has applied for a change of residence with me. She will move to another apartment this afternoon. She I also promise that I will never reveal my new address to my family again.”

"Then why did she ask that question before?"

"I guess it was because she wanted to use this reason to reject her uncle," Yu Xuekun replied, "but I also directly reminded her that this kind of rule cannot restrain people."
