The captain dressed in white sheets responded to Shang Jianyao's rhetorical question with an aria:
"Wisdom and beauty are equally important, both an angel and a goddess.
"She is the rose of the playground and the crystal of the laboratory!"
"How many operas have you watched?" The honest Shang Jianyao asked, even if it was obviously mocking.
The captain ignored him and knelt down again, looking up at the ceiling, as if intending to continue courting.
Shang Jianyao thought for a while, then smiled and asked:
"What's the name of your goddess?"
Next to him, Ruo Wang frowned, feeling that the "business" was very unprofessional.
How can always asking questions about other people's emotions help in this situation
However, John is also very clear that without talking about the goddess in his mind, the captain in the chaotic state will not answer any questions at all, so he can only be patient and listen quietly, hoping that the seemingly useless topic can pull some clues.
Hearing Shang Jianyao's question, the captain looked back from the ceiling.
He answered with a radiant face:
"Her name is Duffy Tiel Osla."
Almost at the same time, Shang Jianyao and John felt the darkness outside the window thicker.
The whistling winter sea breeze seemed to stop briefly at this moment.
However, this seems to be just the hallucinations or psychological factors of the two. After they recovered, everything was so normal.
Shang Jianyao raised his hand and rubbed his chin, and said to John:
"Come and try, I can't help it."
"I can tell." John was actually a little happy.
After all, you can't do it yourself and the other party has a way, which is a less pleasant thing.
John took a step forward and tentatively asked several questions, but as long as it didn't involve the goddess in his mind, the captain ignored it, and either chanted and wooed, or remembered with tears.
"It seems that the source of the problem cannot be found here..." John sighed.
Compassionate Zen Master Purdue reassured:
"Let's hide in another place, and we'll take a look at it after dawn. Anyway, you've always been normal. Even if something happens, it shouldn't be your turn."
"Hope." John stroked his chest a few times, praying to the faith cultivated in the old times.
On a cold and windy night, the two left the captain's room and found a nearby unoccupied room to hide.
Shang Jianyao exited and re-entered, and the last day came as promised.
At this time, the cruise ship's broadcast is telling everyone that the ship will dock today and arrive at the destination Speyside Island. Please pack your luggage in advance and disembark in an orderly manner.
John, who had not slept all night, rubbed his eyes and said hesitantly:
"Would you like to go out and have a look?"
Take a look at the situation on the ship for any warning signs of danger.
"Okay!" Shang Jianyao seemed to have been looking forward to it for a long time.
Johnny then boldly opened the door and walked outside, followed by Shang Jianyao.
Just after walking along the corridor for a while, they suddenly saw the round captain opening the door.
"Good morning." The middle-aged man in his forties had a warm smile and bright eyes, completely different from the frenzy on his face last night.
John who was greeted not only did not relax quietly, but was inexplicably frightened and shuddered.
He remembered the captain's aria-like courtship and tearful pacing last night, and was impressed by the chaotic, unconscious state, but when the sun came up, the captain was like nothing at all, and he couldn't see anything at all. wrong.
How is this not terrifying
John always felt that he was facing monsters in human skins, which would imitate humans in the sun, and reveal their true colors at night.
"Good morning." Shang Jianyao enthusiastically responded to the captain's greetings.
John thought for a while, then asked tentatively:
"Captain, do you feel something is wrong these days?"
The captain shook his head suspiciously:
"Everything is normal, and no one is infected with 'heartless disease'."
Ruo Wang stopped asking questions, said goodbye in a hurry, and returned to his cabin with Shang Jianyao, ready to pack his luggage and head to the deck. As soon as the ship docked, he went straight down, away from this strange and terrifying place.
On the way, they met several humans they had encountered:
Originally pushing the dining car and running wildly, looking back from time to time, the terrified crew members smiled politely and nodded to everyone; On the deck of the parasol, look leisurely; originally crying and laughing, the crazy lady leaned on the side of the boat, looking at the blue sea tenderly, as if she was looking forward to the future...
Even the cold that filled the night was dissipated by the sunlight at this time, bringing a little temperature.
The strong contrast made John fall into fear both physically and mentally.
The more normal it is now, the more he can't help but think about the chaos at night, and the more he suspects that the scene in front of him is only normal on the surface, but actually more dangerous.
It's like seeing the captain's goddess Duffy Tiel, only to find that under her feet, behind her, there are tentacles lurking in the shadows.
"No! We can't just wait to land like this!" John blurted out as soon as he got back to his room.
He felt like he had to do something to actually get there!
"Yes, yes!" Shang Jianyao agreed.
He had experienced this last day many times before, but every time he passively jumped back to the first cruise ship before landing.
At this time, if he just followed John to hide and hide, it was similar to the strategy he had taken several times before, and the result would hardly be different.
Must be a little different!
John thought for a while with a tense expression and said:
"Frankly, I have a strange feeling:
"It can be more dangerous during the day than at night.
"At least under the night, we know who is wrong and who is normal. As long as we don't use our abilities, we will not be affected. Now, we have absolutely no idea what will happen next, and why only a few people landed alive in the end. ."
"Actually, this history has been blurred, because you, as the party, have always kept silent in this regard, so we don't know whether most people survived or most people died." Shang Jianyao answered truthfully.
The ending he told John before was a guess made by him and Jiang Baimian, not reality.
Ruo Wang glanced at Shang Jianyao and nodded in relief:
"You're honest, you're not a liar.
"But I think that since the future me has always been silent on this matter, it must have happened in the end. At least I don't think there is anything worth keeping secret about my current experience."
That's also a lie to you, I haven't really seen you in the future... The honest Shang Jianyao tried to answer this, but was pushed down on the floor of the soul room by his companions.
Without giving them a chance to respond, John said to himself:
"I have a very absurd idea:
"Since the night gives me more sense of security, I want to find a place to hide in the same environment as the night before the cruise ship docks."
Slap clap, Shang Jianyao applauded.
"Wouldn't it be alright to pull the curtains up?" he suggested immediately.
"That's still too bright." John thought for a while and said, "Also, you have noticed the weather during this time. It's barely bearable during the day, but it's colder at night."
"Then you have to find a place with air-conditioning and no light." Shang Jianyao summed up the key points.
As soon as he finished speaking, John already had the answer:
“Cold storage in the kitchen!”
Except here, the energy-stingy captain turned off the air conditioners in all the rooms.
"Not bad! Remember to bring thick clothes." Shang Jianyao was eager to try.
Before long, the two of them, wrapped like bears and armed, sneaked into the kitchen and hid in the cold storage.
"It's really cold, maybe I need a bottle of spirits to distract me." John rubbed his black-gloved palms and glanced left and right.
After several days of sailing, a lot of food in the cold storage has been consumed, and everything looks empty.
Shang Jianyao flicked his flashlight and pointed it into the depths of the cold storage:
"Several people, there is no need to hide."
John also discovered that there are several human consciousnesses in the cold storage.
Soon, four men and three women came out from different places.
The number of them was not the same as what John had sensed, because several of them were capable ones.
Among them was an acquaintance of John, the playboy named Sally.
"Why are you here?" John asked first.
Sally shrugged:
"My spiritual intuition tells me that it is safer to be in a night-like environment, and there is food here."
"Spiritual intuition?" Shang Jianyao was suddenly excited.
"Haha, just kidding." Salil was slightly embarrassed, "I was a occultist in the old days."
There was no chatter on both sides, and they each found a place and waited for the cruise ship to dock in the dark and cold warehouse.
Shang Jianyao withdrew again, wanting to see if he would return to the time he had just boarded the cruise ship after re-entering.
This time, he returned to the cold storage in the kitchen and heard Sally say:
"The cruise ship seems to have docked."
John finds a companion:
"Business, business, come out!"
"Come on, come on!" Shang Jianyao was full of anticipation.
A group of nine people wrapped in thick clothes, opened the door of the cold storage, and returned to the kitchen.
After brushing the floor, the crew in the kitchen turned their heads at the same time and looked over.
Their eyes are cloudy and bloodshot, and their expressions are so ferocious that they seem to be devoured.
"Heartless"!
They all got "no heart disease"!
