Helen walked away with the other man, and Rene got up from the ground in embarrassment. He dusted off the dust on his body, "...You will never appear on my safe list! Don't even think about it. !”
Helen stopped and half turned around: "Rene, your red-haired aunt can't protect you, do you know why?"
Rene sneered, "Those who can't eat grapes are going to start saying the grapes are sour!"
Helen curled her lips and looked at the two people who had just handed over their ship cards: "I advise you to get your ship cards back quickly and don't be fooled."
Helen had just raised her front legs to walk away when someone suddenly shouted: "Wait!"
"Is there anything else? Let's finish it all at once."
"Why...why do you think that mercury needle is not good?"
"It's simple, because Rene is a straw bag," Helen glanced at Rene with a smile, "and people who can reuse straw bags are big straw bags."
…
A few minutes later Hestad heard a knock on the door.
The three of them stopped reading at the same time. Rico got up and went out to check, and found a woman standing outside the glass door leading to the corridor.
Rico returned to the room, "It is indeed a knock on our door. It is a woman who looks familiar, but I don't recognize her."
"I'll go take a look." Si Lei stood up, "You guys put your things away."
When Si Lei returned again, Li Ge had already collected all the documents and put them back in the safe.
"They are passengers on the boat. The woman is followed by a man. Neither of them looks very friendly...but the woman said she has something important and wants to see Hesta."
"Didn't you say anything specific?"
"I asked, but she said she had to see you before telling her."
Hesta laughed and said, "All the passengers have to do this again. Do I have to meet them one by one? Tell her to go back and talk about anything tomorrow."
"Okay, I'll go talk to her."
"Wait a minute," Hesta said softly, "What is this person's name? Did she say it?"
"Helen Bastia."
Hesta and Rico looked up at Si Lei at the same time.
"...What's wrong?" Si Lei looked at one person and then another. "Why are you looking at me like this all of a sudden?"
"Let her in?" Rico blinked at Hesta curiously, "I feel like the message on this person's invitation...anyway...is a bit special."
Si Lei obviously didn't keep up, "What message?"
Only then did Rico remember that when he was reading the invitation on the second floor, Si Lei was still looking at Rene at the elevator entrance, so Rico quickly repeated the words on the back of Helen's invitation.
"'Sigh'?" Si Lei frowned slightly, "Are you sure it's a sigh?"
"That's right. Generally speaking, the messages you, Jane, and the two sisters received were in neutral terms, and the signatures were sincere and loyal - but this changed when it came to this sister."
"That seems worth seeing..." Si Lei looked at Hesta, "What should I say?"
Hesta pinned the judge's red pen to his jacket pocket with one hand, "Open the door."
…
After a slight sound of footsteps, two strangers entered Hesta's room.
Walking in front was a woman wearing a camouflage vest. Her exposed arms had extremely muscular lines. There was a thin layer of golden hair on the outside of her forearms. The sun marks on her upper arms were very obvious.
Her state was so relaxed, as if she was stepping into her own room at this moment. In comparison, the man following Helen seemed much more reserved. He looked around awkwardly for a week, and finally set his sights on There was a water glass on the table.
"It seems that meeting me tonight is a very difficult decision," Helen looked directly into Hesta's eyes. "Should I praise you for your courage?"
"Sit." Hesta said softly.
Helen sat down in the chair opposite Hestad.
"Let me introduce myself first. My name is Helen Bastia. I was previously Mr. Roboglier's secret bodyguard. My job is mainly to survey the site in advance for Mr. Roboglier and find out potential potential." I have been doing this job for seventeen years... I also participate in some internal high-level tasks, usually acting as a sniper, and occasionally as a sniper. Do something else.”
Hesta did not speak, but slightly shook the half-filled glass of water in her hand.
"What's the matter with coming here so late?"
"Your Excellency wants to send invitations to several passengers tonight through René Brombo, right?" Helen smiled. As she spoke, Helen kept staring at Hesta's eyes, both tentative and curious. " He is now asking other passengers to hand over their ship cards to him in your name - do you know about this?"
Li Ge was startled, and Hesta glanced at her very lightly. Li Ge looked suspicious, but immediately gritted his teeth to prevent himself from accidentally speaking.
Helen leaned back in her chair, her voice a bit lazy, "You know, in the sniper business, the most important thing is vision, followed by intuition... And my observation and intuition tell me that you are very short of manpower now. At least, there is a lack of someone who can act as a check and balance.”
The silence at this moment made both Li Ge and Si Lei feel a little pressure. They also looked at Hesta without saying a word, waiting for her reaction.
Hesta hummed indifferently. She turned the water glass in her hand slightly and looked at the wall clock diagonally above Helen.
Helen glanced slightly sideways: "...and, I have also worked for you."
"Us?" Hesta's eyes fell back on Helen, seeming to be more interested.
"Before joining Robbeglier's team, I worked for AHgAs. Although it was twenty years ago, I participated in two low-risk operations and provided auxiliary shooting for the mercury needles, which were the main attackers at the time - —I’m different from Bernhard’s group of people. I’ve been on the battlefield with chelates.”
"Yeah." Hesta responded in a low voice, but the light that just lit up in his eyes seemed to dim again.
Helen vaguely felt that things did not seem to be developing in the direction she expected: "So, what do you think?"
"What do I think?" Hesta put the water glass in his hand on the table and frowned slightly, "Roboglier is missing, Gobelin is unreliable, and Bernhard is not one of your people. Looking at There is no one on this ship who can do anything, so you want to come here to find something to do and see if you can get some benefits - let me ask, Ms. Bastia, who is the brave one tonight?"
Helen's expression darkened.
"But, yes." Hesta changed the subject and her tone suddenly became brisk.
"...What can it do?"
"You are very discerning and have good intuition. I am indeed short of manpower. Moreover, I welcome people like you who are capable and have a clear position to come to me and recommend themselves." Hesta stared into the other person's eyes expressionlessly, "It's just , there is a condition, let’s see if you can do it.”
