Why it never ends

Chapter 230 Roang Palace

Su Lei had been standing on the stone steps not far from the door, waiting until Hesta approached, and she asked, "Eureka, what were you looking at just now?"

"It's the first time I entered this kind of place, and I think this garden is very beautiful." Hesta replied softly, "I just want to see more."

Si Lei laughed, "Let's go."

The two climbed up the steps and stepped into the house through the high and wide front door. As soon as they entered the door, Hesta heard a panicked "Who—"

Hesta and Su Lei looked sideways at the same time, and saw a girl on the wooden steps on the right side of the entrance staggering down holding a half-person-high book. At the stairway, a servant wearing an apron was watching this scene with bated breath and fear.

Almost at the same moment, the tower of books piled on top of her head was slowly tilting to one side. The girl realized this, and the whole body chased to move to that side, but in a hurry, the buckle of her left shoe caught the one of her right foot. Socks, the whole person suddenly lost his balance——

With sharp eyes and quick hands, Hesta flew up. With one hand, she knocked down all the books that fell towards her, and with the other, she firmly grasped the girl's shoulder.

"my book--!"

The tomes rolled down like rocks, and some paper manuscripts pressed in them were like huge white butterflies. They broke free from the pressure, scattered melodiously, and fluttered down in this huge living room.

All of this is beautiful, and when the last manuscript fell, the whole hall was already in a mess that could not bear to look at.

"Are you okay?" Hesta let go of his hand and stood up again.

The girl looked up blankly. She looked sixteen or seventeen years old, with the same green eyes as Turan.

"……I'm okay?"

"Miss Sophie!" The servant who was standing on the stairs on the second floor walked down the stairs quickly, holding up her skirt, "Why are you so disobedient..."

Hesta jumped down the stairs and returned to Si Lei's side.

"You react so quickly." Su Lei laughed, "The rest of Victoria's team are waiting for us in the living room on the first floor. Let's hurry there."

Hesta nodded and followed, but still looked back with some concern, watching the girl behind her and her servant tidy up the scattered books.

"Who is that? What are they doing?"

"It's the Duchess's niece, her name is Sophie, she's a cute little girl, and she's going to study in the core city for preparatory studies in the second half of the year." Si Lei replied, "The Duchess is sorting out the library these days, and they plan to put most of the books in Donate to the municipal library and welfare home.”

Hesta was a little surprised, "They still have the time to do this now?"

"Why don't you do this?" Si Lei smiled, "Instead of sitting here and waiting for your loved ones to die, why not find something to do."

"Has the Assassin sent pictures to Villefort and Tanglars?"

"Not yet," Su Lei sighed, "but what's the difference, the assassin has already told Victoria that the next two victims will be these two people."

"What about them?"

"It's also in the drawing room."

"That—" Sophie's voice came from behind, and Su Lei turned around in response, and Sophie in the distance was waving to Hesta, "I don't know what you call it, thank you for saving me just now!"

Hesta ignored it.

……

The two soon came to the living room. Su Lei pushed open the door, and several pairs of eyes looked at him at the same time. Hesta immediately recognized Zoe who had been beaten by him. wearing a bandage.On the other end, Ende showed a barely noticeable smile to Hesta—they had already met in the independent prison before.

Before Chiba came here, the only people here who knew her true identity were probably Victoria and Ende.

She looked around, and soon saw Tanglar and Villefort in the corner of the living room. Both of them looked sick and lacked energy.

Suddenly, Hesta's eyes changed slightly - beside Villefort, Calvin was sitting there.

The eyes of the two met, and Calvin nodded slightly.

Victoria stepped forward and grabbed Hesta's shoulder, "Come on, let me introduce you. This is Eureka. She will assist us in negotiating with the assassin—"

The white-painted wooden door closed behind Hesta, and the conversation inside suddenly became inaudible.

……

In the afternoon, it started raining again in Tanyi.

At night, Hesta walked out of the living room. From today onwards, she will be placed in an attic on the south side of the second floor. Victoria has prepared some necessities for her. If she needs anything else, Inventories can be submitted as they used to be on base, and AHgAs' support logistics team will quickly purchase.

Hesta sat in the living room on the first floor for a while, when a servant stepped forward and said respectfully, "Ms. Eureka, would you like to go to your room?"

Hesta sat quietly on the spot, she seemed to be in a daze thinking about something, then she got up suddenly and walked to the entrance on the first floor.

Although the rain outside the window has stopped, the world is still wet.

"Ms. Eureka—" The valet of the Villefort family was still chasing after her.

This feeling of eyes glued to her body disgusted Hesta, and she strode outside to the manor.

The servant chased after him again, "Ms. Eureka, where are you going?"

"Go for a walk."

"But it's only raining outside—"

The servant had just finished speaking, and Hesta had already stepped onto the marble steps outside the door.

The male servant was stunned for a moment, then immediately turned around and took the umbrella: "Then let me show you the way."

The manor smells like earth after the rain, and the shrub walls here look very flat and have obviously been carefully maintained.

Hesta walked slowly around the perimeter of the mansion until she passed the second corner. She saw a more majestic palace in the distance. Its marble dome looked majestic and sacred in the night after the rain. A bronze statue, an aristocrat in costume riding a horse and raising a long sword, as if to split the dense night in front of him with his arms.

"What is that place?" Hesta asked.

"That is the Rohan Palace in ancient times." The servant replied.

Hesta nodded, "The sunken dance floor is right here?"

"Yes," the valet nodded, "The mansion in front was newly built about 100 years ago, and the real site of the Rohan Palace is in the back. It's a pity that no one has entered it since the old Duke sealed it up."

"Aren't you going in to clean it?"

The servant nodded, "Yes, we won't go in either."

Hesta paused for a while, then suddenly changed direction and walked straight towards Roon Palace.

"You'd better not come too close!" cried the footman suddenly.

Hesta stopped, "...why?"

"Because our Duke doesn't like people showing too much interest in Rohan Palace," the valet explained, "In the past, people often came here because of the reputation, and wanted the Duke to accommodate them and let them enter the Rohan Palace...every time It was all very unpleasant."

"Really," Hesta said in a flat tone, "Why is such a famous palace not allowed to enter?"
