Why it never ends

Chapter 1027 Recommendation
"This is..." Eucalyptus looked at her, "Are you the equestrian therapist?"

"Yes." Tiexi looked at Eucalyptus' red hair and suddenly switched to the language of District 14, "Hesta people?"

"...Yes, are you from District 14 as well?"

"I lived in Liangtouwang when I was a kid," Tiexi said. "When I was nine, my aunt was transferred to the third district for work, so I followed her there."

Hesta suddenly realized something: "Then you can speak your native language together! Wouldn't it be easier to express yourself this way--"

"It is up to the client to decide what language to speak during treatment," Tiexi interrupted Hesta before she could finish. "This issue can be discussed during the first treatment, so... let's talk about it then."

Tiexi pulled his legs out of the stool.

"Where's Stella?"

"In the workshop," Hesta replied calmly. "It's not far from here. If you go to the blacksmith's hut and look east, you can see their house."

"Okay!" Tiexi clapped his hands, "Thank you, I'll go find her."

"About treatment—"

"I will go to the city this afternoon. There is no rush for treatment," Tiexi said. "Even if everything goes well, it will take at least two weeks to start. I understand that you are very anxious now, but things have their own pace. Let's be patient and move forward steadily, okay?"

Lai Lin could vaguely sense Hesta's anger, but she didn't understand where it came from. Although Tiexi did reject Hesta's proposal, she was just stating the facts... Before things got worse, Lai Lin stepped forward and patted Tiexi on the shoulder: "You want to go to the reporter's studio, right? I'll take you there."

"Thank you so much!" Tiexi was a little surprised, "I hope it won't delay your meal!"

"It's very close. It takes less than ten minutes to go back and forth."

"Thank you, thank you..." Tiexi began to clean up the table and rolled up the wooden chopsticks he brought with him into the coarse linen towel, "Let's go."

……

In the afternoon, Stella and Tiexi were smoking together against the farm fence. Tiexi picked up Stella's cigarette box and took a closer look. On it was a tongue with a golden cauliflower-like tumor. Next to it was written: Smoking may lead to oral cancer and many other diseases. Please pay attention to your personal health.

"...No wonder I saw people buying cigarette boxes to store their cigarettes here," Tiexi frowned, "Why do they print this kind of thing on cigarette boxes here?"

"Of course it's to remind you that smoking is harmful to your health."

Tiexi frowned even more tightly: "Can't you buy another brand?"

"It's the same no matter what brand it is," Stella said, "Lung cancer, laryngeal cancer, bladder cancer, kidney cancer, stomach cancer, esophageal cancer... you pick one."

The two men stared at the cigarette box in Tiexi's hand with serious expressions, and then exhaled a puff of blue-gray smoke at the same time.

"What are you busy with recently?" Tiexi asked, "Are you still doing interviews?"

"I won't run away. There are endless hot topics to follow." Stella said, "I changed direction a long time ago... I have to spend my time on things that people will still talk about a hundred years later."

"No wonder you look so anxious."

“…Am I anxious?”

"But from another angle," Tiexi laughed so hard that his shoulders shook, "you look more like a human being now than ever before, Stella."

"What words!"

"A horse would never think about these things while running," Tiexi said, "Only humans worry about whether others will still mention their names after they die-" "Stop talking about this. Have you finished visiting the horse farm here? I can spare several hours every day now. You can teach me how to ride a horse."

"Not yet," Tiexi said, "Don't worry, you are all so anxious... I just got off the plane today and changed trains, and I have to go to the city in the afternoon, let me rest for a while?"

"Cheer up, you are the person I recommended to Hesta!" Stella straightened up, "Have you met her? Oh, she went to the station to pick you up today, right?"

"uh-huh."

"Did you chat on the way?" Stella asked, "How did you feel?"

"Uh... are you telling the truth?"

Stella’s expression flashed with surprise: “…You two can’t get along?”

"It's hard to say," Tiexi said, "This person is a bit overbearing."

Stella opened her mouth slightly: “…How did you provoke her?”

"How could I offend her... How could I dare to do that?" Tiexi cried out in injustice. "I just tried my best to remain clear-headed and uphold my professional ethics under her authority - it's not easy to do, Stella."

"What?" Stella laughed. "Tell me in detail, what did you do along the way?"

"Let's talk about it later," Tiexi put out the cigarette butt on the fence and threw it into the metal ashtray that Stella carried with her, "Anyway——"

Tiexi raised his hands high: "I'm out!"

"Yes, you are out--" Stella also shouted, "You will earn a new life--we will all earn a new life!"

……

At night, Hesta and Victoria returned from the House of Nobles together.

Things have good and bad. The news of collecting information in order to predict the assassin's whereabouts in advance has been released. Victoria and Hesta can see that several people at the scene are ready to make a move. I believe that these people will come to visit soon.

They need to meet some people who can talk to them about the secrets of the nobility. Hesta believes that this network of relationships woven by the nobles not only hides other clues about the Fayalar Wasteland, but also contains many key details that can help them further understand the past of District 12.

But at the same time, Hesta also unexpectedly learned another thing - the entire Emanria will carry out education reform starting from July this year. The specific policy has not yet been announced, but the process after the reform will be much stricter than it is now.

Hesta couldn't help but start to have a headache. Although several people said they could help ask the "child education expert" about it, considering that the expert needed to be stationed in the school, he was afraid that no one in Emanlia would be willing to move to the suburbs for a new school.

Before going to bed, Hesta was walking alone around the old house on the farm. In the distance, someone with a flashlight was walking towards her. Hesta stopped and found it was Stella.

"I heard from Victoria about what happened to you in the House of Nobles this afternoon," Stella said straight to the point, "Why didn't you tell me that you were looking for a child education expert?"

"…Uh, I'm still figuring this out."

"I have a ready-made candidate to recommend!"

Hesta's expression moved slightly, but in the darkness of the night, Stella didn't notice.

"Who?" Hesta asked.

"Have you forgotten who Zubby Bordudale's mother is and what she does?"
