"How do I know this kind of thing? I'm not—"
Hesta didn't say anything more, she grabbed the water glass on the side and threw it at Bernhard. She didn't use much force, but it was enough to interrupt Bernhard's mania.
"You don't know, so just listen." Hesta looked aside and said, "Si Lei, tell me."
"This is how I understand Article 11." Si Lei said with a serious expression, "Those dangerous guests we saw last night may only be active at night, and they will use the same elevator as us.
"Then, when the elevator stops on the -2 floor, it means that the elevator is likely to be transporting dangerous guests at this moment. Therefore, ordinary passengers should stay away from the elevator entrance immediately to avoid encountering these dangerous guests head-on."
Having said this, Si Lei stopped for a moment, and she also looked at the young soldier brought up by Bernhard.
"If... if someone presses the elevator button at this time, it will cause the elevator to stop on this deck. Then when the elevator door opens, these monsters will directly enter the deck where this person is."
The soldier who was slumped on the ground covered his face and cried, "I'm sorry... I'm sorry, I really don't know -"
"It's not your fault. After all, you haven't read the "Details" and you don't know anything," Si Lei whispered. "Besides, I'm afraid it's also because you haven't read the "Details", so those monsters didn't attack you."
"No!" Adams suddenly stood up, "We have to capture those people just now! According to this, as long as they don't read the "Details", they can stay out of the incident when an accident happens... But what if something happens? If they commit any stupidity, they will directly implicate us!"
Fayence on the side reacted immediately, "Yes! They must watch it together... I will go with you!"
"Everyone stop." Hesta stopped the two of them.
Fiance and Adams stopped at the same time, "Ms. Hesta——"
"The details are posted here. Now take a look at them for a while. They are all the same. If you are worried, you can just move the details back to the cabin on the fifth floor. You won't miss this time." Hesta looked at the two of them and said, "Continue We have more important things to talk about next, about what Officer Si Lei witnessed at the 'Night Banquet' last night."
The two men's expressions changed slightly and they both sat down.
"What does the 'night banquet' look like? Are there many people attending?"
"It looks like an ordinary dinner party. Everyone drinks, chats, and dances together...but the guests at the dinner party will be a little special," Si Lei replied, "They are the same group of people who attacked the third deck last night."
"What——!" Several men stood up after hearing this.
"Calm down," Si Lei knocked on the table a few times, "At the banquet, these people are very normal and basically polite, and if you bring the right accessories, they will be very friendly towards you... That's it .”
Si Lei raised his scepter brooch.
"All passengers who receive an invitation to the dinner will be asked to choose between two accessories, either a scepter brooch or sapphire earrings - the scepter brooch must be chosen."
Gustav raised his hand tremblingly, "What will happen if you choose... sapphire earrings?"
"It will be an ugly death."
A voice came from outside. Rico opened the door and walked into the hall. Her cheekbones and forehead were covered with cotton pads, and the skin on the edge of the cotton pads was still bruised and bruised.
"...Li Ge?" Si Lei looked at Li Ge's face in surprise. Not only was her face injured, but her walking posture was slightly wrong. Si Lei stepped forward quickly, "Are you injured?"
Li Ge smiled and patted Si Lei's arm, and replied in a voice that only she could hear, "It's not that he was injured, but he almost died."
"……what happened?"
"I'll tell you later." Rico waved to Hesta in the distance, "Didn't I ask you to wait for me for a while?"
"I've been waiting for more than an hour," Hesta suppressed his surprise and concern, "...just come."
Rico found a seat and sat down, and told Si Lei everything he had experienced last night, including the corridors and exits that disappeared after going to Roboglier's office, and the sudden appearance of poisonous gas in the confined space.
"In short, when choosing accessories at the beginning, you cannot choose sapphire earrings, otherwise you will die." Rico whispered, "The scepter brooch can temporarily guarantee your safety, and not only at the night banquet, when we enter the third deck At that time, those monsters also did not attack Officer Si Lei, but they launched a siege on me."
"I have a question!" Gustav raised his hand.
"explain."
"I also asked for the brooch when I went down to the second floor, but the staff there did not give it to me. Instead, they said that I had to find it myself. They could only provide me with some clues..." Gusta The husband looked at Si Lei, "Officer Si Lei, how did you find the brooch?"
"...Well, this is one of the things that puzzles me," Si Lei replied, "I didn't do anything, the brooch was given to me directly."
"I used your earrings." Rico added, "But now I have thrown the earrings into the sea."
In the crowd, Helen's eyes suddenly lit up, "Does that mean you attended the banquet last night with Gustav's earrings?"
"That's right."
"That means, whoever wants to attend the night banquet in the future can just use the brooch that Officer Si Lei got?"
Li Ge and Si Lei looked at each other and said, "It should be okay."
"That's good," Helen held up an invitation. "In that case, give me the brooch now, because I am the one who received the invitation to the banquet today."
After checking the authenticity of the banquet invitation, Rico frowned, "Why don't you just go get your own brooch?"
"The rules clearly say that you cannot go to the second floor," Helen replied. "This is an iron rule."
Li Ge fell silent - this is not an iron rule, isn't this a lie made up by Hesta!
But I can't say it directly...
Si Lei quickly placed the brooch in Helen's hand.
"So what do you mean, will a mercury needle accompany me to the banquet tonight?" Helen accepted the brooch. She looked at Hesta and then at Rico, "But neither of you look good now." Too combative - can I trust you to continue to provide foolproof security services? Or should you go to your overalls-wearing superior?"
"She is not my superior." Li Ge replied with a raised eyebrow.
"What is your attitude?" Helen folded her hands on her chest, "Ms. Hestad said before that she would do her best to protect our safety... Why, now that you are also injured, you are selectively fulfilling your promise. Officer Si Lei is one of yours, so protect him well. It’s our turn as ordinary passengers—"
Li Ge spread his hands and said, "If you don't believe us, then you can go to the banquet tonight by yourself."
Helen laughed and was about to answer when Hesta suddenly spoke first.
"That's what you're waiting for, isn't it? You want to go to the banquet alone and don't want us to follow?"
