Why it never ends

Chapter 1172 Electrician
So Santa left the kitchen and went about her own business.

The murder case on the farm did not cause any waves at the palace. The teachers here were not very familiar with the people on the farm, and everyone was unwilling to let the children hear about it, so even fewer people talked about it.

Out of curiosity, Si Lei went to the scene to take a look. Although the police had not yet given their investigation results, the people in the settlement had already come to their own conclusion: a murder of passion, as could be seen from what he had in his mouth at the end.

Old Mao had a bad reputation in this regard. When he was young, he looked good but no woman wanted to marry him. When he got old, no one wanted him. He worked on the farm for so many years and was involved in the gray industry. He should have made a lot of money, but he was never able to move out of the farm and move to a reliable nursing home until he died. No one knew where his money went.

A janitor had died, and though his death was horrible, it was an insignificant old fellow, so nobody on the farm really cared about his death. People were talking about the possible identity of the murderer and joking about old Mao's body as if it were a piece of gossip that had nothing to do with them.

……

Hazel came to the farm again. Today was only a week since she last visited Eucalyptus, but Hesta called her specifically and said that he hoped she would come again because "she had something to ask you."

Hazel arrived.

The last time she came, she stayed in Tiexi's hut with Eucalyptus for one night. Although she had heard about the farm fire at that time, she didn't feel it deeply. But this time was different. She walked around the palace twice, but she couldn't make up her mind to go in. She just wondered if Hesta gave her the wrong address.

Until a short woman appeared and asked her enthusiastically if she was Hazel, the electrician. Hazel nodded seriously, and the other party led the way and led her to the study.

The two chatted all the way, and Hazel realized that the man in front of him was called Si Lei, a policeman from District 14. Hazel was stunned: "Is there a big case here?"

Si Lei was even more surprised: "A doorman was killed last night. Did you also hear about this?"

"Ah?" Hazel was confused. "No, I mean you. You are a policeman, and you came to District 12 specifically--"

Si Lei then realized that he had misunderstood. He waved his hands and said that he came here for something else.

Hazel said nothing more.

The palace made her feel extremely uncomfortable. The further she went inside, the more uncomfortable she felt. She really didn't like this place with such a strong aristocratic atmosphere. She had already started thinking that after meeting with the Inspector, she should go sit with Tiexi and say hello to Eucalyptus...if Eucalyptus was in good condition at the moment.

Hesta was not in the study, and Ximoya was nowhere to be seen either. Si Lei walked around the second floor twice but couldn't find anyone.

Hazel felt uncomfortable staying alone in the study, so she left as well. She heard what seemed to be children's voices deep in the corridor, so she walked forward in the direction of the sound.

"...Eucalyptus." She stood at the entrance of the morning reading corridor, looking at her friend who was organizing the children's book corner by herself with some surprise, "Why are you here?"

Eucalyptus turned around, his expression suddenly changed to surprise: "Hazel! When did you come? Why didn't you tell me in advance?"

"Your friend asked me to come here." Hazel stepped forward and helped Eucalyptus put away the book. "You don't work at the horse farm anymore?"

"We are short of manpower here." said Eucalyptus.

Although Hazel's hair was gray, her movements were several times faster than Eucalyptus's. The two of them quickly finished tidying up the bookshelf. They pulled over two children's chairs and rested.
"Have you started looking for a new job now?" asked Eucalyptus.

"Some small orders," Hazel said, "but the situation is different now. Even if we fly cargo planes, we can't sign long-term contracts." "...Why?"

"It seems to be a policy change. Anyway, several small bosses I know have gone bankrupt recently," Hazel said. "The goods are stuck in the warehouse and can't be shipped out. The big companies are in a better situation, but they won't want novice pilots over 60 years old."

"So how do you live now?"

Hazel laughed at this question: "Then don't worry. Craftsmen will never starve to death. You can make money by helping neighbors repair things or pulling wires. Besides, I'm not short of money."

Eucalyptus nodded, seeming relieved: "I heard you say that you couldn't find a long-term contract, so I thought--"

"The main reason is that without a long-term contract, you can't buy good insurance." Hazel sighed, "Some supplementary insurance is too expensive for individuals to buy..."

"I can give you a long-term contract." Hesta's voice came out of nowhere, "I'm short of electricians and drivers, and maybe cargo pilots in the future."

Hazel turned around and saw that Si Lei and Hesta had returned at some point.

Hazel walked up and shook Hesta's hand.

"Let's talk in the study?" Hesta pointed in the direction of the study.

"Walk."

Eucalyptus stood there, looking at the backs of the people leaving. Hazel suddenly turned around and waved at her. Eucalyptus immediately laughed and made a fist-clenching gesture to cheer the old man on.

How could this have happened so fast? How could Hesta have thought of bringing Hazel to work on the farm?
Eucalyptus was genuinely happy.

If Hazel could really stay, the manor would have another trustworthy friend in the future.

……

An hour later, Hazel had signed all the contracts.

The money Hesta paid was not much, but the benefit was that food and accommodation were provided, and the benefits were good, especially medical insurance. The default supplementary insurance here was the highest level, which not only covered all the parts that needed to be paid by the normal medical insurance system, but also did not require waiting in line to see a specialist, and hospitalization was fully reimbursed. There was even no upper limit for dental and ophthalmological treatments... The thick insurance handbook also had the words AHgAs printed on it, which made Hazel have some vague fantasies about her current unit.

"Then let's talk about the specific work," Hesta looked at the documents in Hazel's hand, "I won't be in the palace tomorrow."

"You go ahead," Hazel said. "I'm listening."

"Starting tomorrow, I want you to help me comprehensively investigate the potential safety hazards of the power distribution system in the park." Hesta said, "First, you need to draw a detailed power distribution diagram. I can't find the original diagram, but even if I find it, it may have been tampered with. Secondly, I want you to evaluate the actual total power consumption and line load in the park. Thirdly, based on the above, provide some reasonable power-saving suggestions for me to issue new regulations...

"Tomorrow, Lai Lin will personally take you around the entire farm. After your field inspection, give me some feedback and tell me how long it will take you to complete these tasks."
