Why it never ends

Chapter 1165 Little things
The three sisters came forward and said a few words in their native dialect. Of course, Eleven didn't understand what they said, but he knew that it must be commands like "get out of the way" or "this is our place."

Qiqi tried to confirm their request, and one of them pushed Qiqi's notebook to the ground. Everyone fell silent and paid attention to the movement here.

However, Kiki did not argue with them at all. She jumped off her chair and left the semi-open classroom without looking back.

The three sisters immediately sat down around the small round table.

After a while, the teacher and Kiki came together.

"Who dropped Qiqi's notebook on the ground?" The teacher picked up the notebook from the ground, "Why did you do that?"

"…This is our location." The girl in the lead explained in the language of the third district with some hesitation.

"But she came first." The teacher's hand fell on Qiqi's shoulder. "We don't have fixed seats for morning reading classes. Everyone can freely choose where to sit and who to sit with, right?"

These words were still a little complicated for the girls, but they easily understood that the teacher was asking them to return their seats to Qiqi. The three of them glared at Qiqi with disgust, went to another seat, and sat down.

Eleven watched in amazement as all this happened and ended like this.

Qiqi sat back in her original position and opened her notebook again. At this moment, she suddenly raised her head - Eleven immediately withdrew his gaze as if he was burned by a branding iron.

……

On the way back in the car, Zoe turned up the volume of the car stereo very loudly, and the few of them were extremely happy, dancing and clapping along to the music.

After the five people made a scene at the theater last night, they all realized that this matter would be reported to Hesta sooner or later - Chloe was not under her control, so she was naturally not afraid, but the remaining four people couldn't help but grumble in their hearts.

How would Hesta deal with them? Zoe and Ende were worried that they would be reported to the headquarters and then grounded, while Jiaheduolei and Lu Qizhen were worried that they would be expelled from the farm for their reckless behavior.

Under pressure, the few people were too lazy to think about what would happen next, and happily changed to a theater farther away from the city center and continued their original plan of watching movies at night. They played from 11 o'clock at night until 7 o'clock the next morning, and then drove back to the palace as planned.

As the car got closer and closer to the palace, the lively atmosphere inside the car slowly dissipated, and everyone had to start worrying about the same problem again.

"Who of us will go tell Hesta about what happened last night?" Ende whispered. "Do we have to tell him today?"

“She’ll have to tell me as soon as she gets back,” Zoe said. “If she’s more informed, she’ll probably know everything by now.”

"We are doing good things." Jiaduolei said, "Even if there is a little trouble, it is that man's fault-"

"What's wrong with you guys?" Chloe slapped the leather seat of the car. "Aren't you all so powerful? Why are you so afraid of Hesta? I'm not afraid of her--"

“You don’t understand,” Zoe interrupted her, “A higher-ranking official can crush someone…”

"I'll go and talk. In the final analysis, this matter is all my fault." Lu Qizhen rubbed his temples with both hands. "Even if I am expelled from the palace, or even expelled from District 12, I will accept it—"

"That's not the case," Ende and Zoe said in unison.

When they returned to the palace, it was almost ten in the morning and all the reporters had left. Zoe first took Chloe back to her confinement room quietly, and then everyone started discussing how to make things sound more reasonable.

As the discussion began, they saw Hesta and Si Lei walking towards them from not far away - the two men had obviously seen their car.

"... She's back?" Hesta called from afar. "No way." Zoe's hands were on the steering wheel, "She met me already? Why is she hanging around outside at this hour?"

After a moment of hesitation, Lu Qizhen pushed open the car door and ran quickly towards Hesta and Si Lei.

The three people in the car stared at her intently. Lu Qizhen was seen gesturing and turning back to point inside the car from time to time.

After a while, Si Lei started laughing.

Hesta kept looking back and looking into the car, with a smile on his face.

About five minutes later, Lu Qizhen ran back to the car again and slammed the door shut: "Don't worry! It's okay!"

"What did Hesta tell you?" Gahodole asked quickly.

"She said 'it's all small stuff'."

Ende and Zoe turned their heads at the same time: "...small matter?"

"Yes!" Lu Qizhen said with a smile, "She told us to go back to our rooms and have a good rest!"

Zoe restarted the engine and led everyone to the parking lot. She and Ende didn't say anything on the way - really? Was it a small matter? Although the two of them didn't enter bullet time last night, they did cause a commotion in public... This has always been considered a relatively serious matter within AHgAs.

But... since she said it was a small matter, then... it should be a small matter.

……

"Where were we talking just now?" Si Lei looked at Hesta again, "Oh, Mrs. Brownbo wants you to let go of the Schiller family's property for 80 million... Did you agree to her?"

"No." Hesta said, "This is too strange. 80 million is not a small number. And Elu also said before that the Schiller family has problems with their cash flow. Although they seem to have a lot of money, the actual assets that can be exchanged for it are extremely limited. If she wanted money, why would she use real money to exchange for a bunch of Schiller family's bad debts?"

Si Lei nodded.

"And this Mrs. Brown also mentioned someone to me." Hesta paused. "René. She knew that René was on the Ascension—and she probably knew that René died at my hands."

Si Lei said nothing.

Hesta's words undoubtedly implied that this Mrs. Brownbo had connections with the people on the ship. In addition, Hesta mentioned before that she had a conversation with Elu this morning...

"You suspect it's Chiba?"

"Maybe, or maybe Anna." Hesta said, "I have another guess."

"You said."

"In the final analysis, Mrs. Brownbo hopes that I will not investigate the Schiller family's property any further. If she is willing to pay such a large sum of money to end this matter, it means that the key point of this matter is not about money. Maybe there are some unspeakable secrets in one of the Schiller family's estates? Or there may be other problems behind the whole thing."

"Maybe..." Si Lei continued. She recalled Elu's words about being out of reach, and a deeper and darker thought came to her mind, "...to Mrs. Brown, money is just a string of numbers - I'm not saying that she regards money as dirt."

Hesta looked at Si Lei in confusion: "What do you want to say?"
