Why it never ends

Chapter 480 Makeup

Rico pushed Hesta back into the house, only to find that there was an extra note on the small round table they were sitting around not long ago.

Hesta saw the first line at a glance: Help us!
Hesta took the note in her hand:

save us!

We were locked in a dark room by Quicksilver Jane Hestad, below the deck of the ship, it looked like a warehouse, full of cultural relics and fossils, not a living person in sight.

save us!We are Agnes and Meyer, whoever you are, please help us get the message out to more people, Jane Hester has no right to detain any passenger on board and restrict our freedom at will, she is committing a crime !
Further down, are the signatures of Agnes and Meyer.

Hesta turned to the back of the paper and looked. There was a piece of double-sided tape on the back of the paper, with some white cat fur stuck to it.

"Where did it come from?"

"That cat." Su Lei replied, "I met it on the way back, and this note was stuck on the cat's back."

"Has anyone else seen it?"

"I don't know." Su Lei replied, "There was no one else beside me at the time."

"Okay." Hesta smiled, tore the note in half, and threw it into the trash can beside him, "Next time we see that cat, we have to catch it."

"Did you really lock them up, the...sisters?"

"Ah."

"Why," Si Lei frowned, "What did the two of them do—"

"Gobelin might want to silence them," Hesta said softly, "I'm saving people."

"……Really."

"Otherwise, I don't have any grudges with these sisters—oh, Agnes planned to assassinate me before." Hesta smiled and glanced at Si Lei, "This should be considered self-defense, right?"

……

Early the next morning, just after seven o'clock, Su Lei heard a knock on the door.

She gets up to look and finds Tasia standing outside with a few men.

"What's wrong?" Si Lei opened the door, "What happened?"

"René didn't go back last night," Tasia looked at Si Lei, "These people insisted that René walked with me last night and wanted to trouble me, but yesterday Ms. Hesta took him halfway. Let's go...they don't believe me no matter what I say."

"So you're here to...?"

"Is Ms. Hesta awake?" Tasia asked in a low voice, "I want her to testify for me..."

"Not yet, let's talk about it when we arrive at the theater at nine o'clock, and I will pass it on." Su Lei looked at the people behind Tasia, "If it's convenient for you, you can come in and wait."

"is it okay?"

Su Lei opened the door a little wider. Just as Tasia entered, the people behind her also wanted to move their legs.

"Stop," Si Lei said, "you people are always inseparable from Rene, why did you leave first last night?"

"Mr. Blumber told us to go first!" said one of them. "He said he had something to talk to Tacia about, so we—"

"You came here early in the morning to trouble her?"

"no……"

"If you're in a hurry, go to the theater and wait," Si Lei said coldly, "The people living here are all ladies, it's not convenient for you to come in, let's go."

The glass door closed slowly, and Su Lei took Tasia to another room when he heard the lock snap.

Tasia still seemed a little startled, and Si Lei boiled a pot of hot water for her, and asked her to sit on an unoccupied single bed.

"Miss Hester and the others..."

"They're in another room, they should be ordering food right now." Su Lei replied, she picked up the tablet on the table beside her, "Have you eaten yet? If not, let's go together, so we don't have to go to the restaurant." .”

"Okay, let me take a look..." Tasia took the tablet from Si Lei, glanced at the mirror on the inside of the locker not far away from the corner of her eye, and suddenly covered her face with her hand.

"...What's wrong with you?" Si Lei asked.

"Sorry..." Tasia lowered her head, her expression suddenly became embarrassed, and even the roots of her ears began to turn red.

"What's wrong with you?" Su Lei squatted down, "What's wrong?"

"...No, no," Tasia smiled awkwardly, "I was in a hurry to go out today and forgot to put on my makeup. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, this is so rude..."

Su Lei didn't understand, "Isn't it because you don't feel well?"

Tasia covered her face and shook her head repeatedly. She put the tablet aside and stood up hastily, "Can I borrow your bathroom for a while?"

Su Lei raised his hand towards the bathroom room, and Tasia fled there as if taking refuge.

The sound of water coming from the bathroom.

Si Lei stood at the door with his tablet in his arms, "What did Rene ask you to say last night?"

"... didn't say anything," Tasia's voice came, "he just told me something about his past in the wasteland. I thought it was just chatting, but I didn't expect him to come here specifically to talk to me... ..."

"He didn't say anything disgusting, did he?"

"No." Tasia quickly replied, but she realized that the answer to this question should be yes after the words came out of her mouth.

"That's good." Su Lei said softly, "This person seems to be a little tricky, so we should try to stay away from him."

"OK, all right."

Outside the door, Si Lei's footsteps gradually walked away. Inside, Tasia supported the sink and looked at the water flow. She suddenly remembered what René said last night about women in the wilderness who sold their bodies for bread.

Thinking of René's gaze last night, Tasia felt her hands trembling slightly, and a feeling of disgust suddenly struck, like a limp slime crawling up the back of her hand suddenly.

Tasia gripped the edge of the sink and couldn't help clenching her teeth.

If only people like Rene could disappear forever.

She took a deep breath, and took out the liquid foundation, concealer, blush, eyeliner, eye shadow and lipstick in the handbag. She deliberately stuffed these small things into the handbag just in case of occasions like today.

Facing the mirror, Tasia began to dress up, and as the freckles on both sides of the bridge of the nose and pale cheeks were covered by smooth, bright makeup, a familiar sense of security returned.

In order to make herself look more aggressive today, she deliberately adjusted the angle of her eyebrows, and added a deeper shadow to her cheeks, but the lipstick color was still too bright, and she had to go back to the room to change the color later.

After looking back and forth for a few minutes, Tasia breathed a sigh of relief.She bent down and repacked her sub-bottles, and when she got up again, she parted her bangs again with some care, so that their arcs looked more natural.

"Tasia? Are you still okay?" Su Lei's voice came from outside.

"Ah, all right! I'll come out right away!"

For the last time, Tasia looked at herself in the glasses.

If she can see René again today, she must let him figure out that she is not a woman from the wasteland.
