"First time? No way, you have been in this world for more than a year..." Qingkong sighed in amazement.
"That's right, I've traveled through three continents, and visited several neutral zones, but this is not only the first time I've seen this conch shell, I've never heard of it before."
"It seems that there are still many secrets in this world waiting for us to discover."
Leoria nodded, with a thoughtful expression on his face, and led the way to the port area.

As soon as he walked to the port area, the conch in his hand vibrated slightly.
Leoria brought the conch to her ear again, and Xiao Feng's voice came again—
"Hey, Leo, can you hear me? I'll just tell you, Ah Fei and I have arrived at the hotel."
"Okay, did you find out anything?"
[I haven't started to inquire yet. A Fei and I are having dinner and ordered a lot of dishes. It's a pity that you and Qingkong are not here. ]
Leo Lia felt speechless, and said helplessly: "You don't plan to eat, sleep and buy things later, and report to me about all the chores, right?"
[Haha, that's a good idea. ]
"It's okay, I'm hanging up."
[Etc., etc! I was joking with you just now, you really have no sense of humor... In fact, I asked the hotel owner when I was checking in at the hotel just now, and the owner said that he did see Luke coming to the bar to drink in a bad mood last night. A Fei and I plan to stay in the hotel and wait for him in the area, or you and Qingkong will have a good time looking for the Blood Drinker at the port. Now that Luke has returned, the ships that accompanied him to sea should have also returned. Isn't our ultimate goal now changing from Luke to the captain of the Blood Drinker, Whale King Chuck? Good luck, then. ]
"I see." Leoria simply replied, ending the call.
Qing Kong heard their conversation clearly from the side, and the two looked at each other in a tacit understanding, and began to follow the side where Xiao Feng and Ah Fei walked earlier, and began to observe the passing boats one by one.
The port of Whirlpool Island is called Huanfeng Harbor. Looking down from the sky, it is in the shape of a semicircle surrounding the sea. Standing on the ground and looking left and right, it stretches for tens of miles, densely packed with tens of thousands of ships docked. It is by no means an easy task for finding a single target. Just now when the four of them were moving in groups, Leoria and Qingkong spent an hour asking, but they didn't observe the ship carefully, and they didn't go to any end. Therefore, for the next task, the two of them are mentally prepared to spend a considerable amount of time.
Leoria and Qingkong entered a state of busy searching and inquiring, and before they knew it, the sky changed from blood-red to dark, and it was nighttime.
At this time, the two had just finished searching for ships in half of the port—they tried their best to concentrate on observation during the day, and they asked someone to find out about every unknown ship. Not that pleasant.
"Why did it get dark so quickly, I can't feel the time passing so fast at all." Qingkong sat down on a stone pier, with a tired tone in his tone.
"It proves that we didn't waste time today." Leoria comforted, "Is it still possible? If you want to rest, you can sit here and wait for me. I will continue to search, and I will come to you as soon as I have a clue."
"I'm Qingkong, I'm not that weak. Since you're looking for it, let's go together." Qingkong said and stood up again, "I know you're not going to rest tonight, since I want to follow, naturally I want to follow you Let’s go at the pace. Let’s go, we will search the entire port for ships tonight.”
Leoria smiled helplessly, and replied, "Okay."
The exploration at night starts quickly, and the reason why it is more difficult than during the day is that there are fewer and fewer people who can ask questions as time goes by. But the good thing is that those docked boats are all empty, and there are not many sailors to guard them. The two can jump and run between the boats, check the signs inside the boat, and find their names.
A busy night passed unknowingly, the sky turned blood red, and the clear sky finally felt tired. Since then, they thought they had run all the ships in sight of the entire port, but there was no Blood Drinker. shadow.

At this moment, Leoria's backpack vibrated slightly, and he knew that it was Xiao Feng who was looking for him, so he dug out the conch.
[how? Have you found the blood drinker? ] Little Maniac's energetic voice came from inside the conch, it sounded like he slept well last night.
"Still looking, have you waited for Luke?" Leoria replied lightly and asked.
[I'm still waiting, I didn't expect it would be troublesome to find someone. I'll go out with A Fei after breakfast right now to inquire, and we'll contact you if we have any news. ]
Leoria let out an "oh" and put down the conch. Turning his head, he found that Qing Kong was standing on the edge of the port, observing something against the sea.
He walked over and asked, "What are you looking at?"
At this time, Qingkong raised his hand and pointed to a slender ship, which was dragging a dilapidated ship to the distance: "I saw this scene many times during the day yesterday. It's dragging the broken ship in one direction. Leoria, tell me, is this dragging the broken ship to a fixed place for repair? But, we didn't see any place where the broken ship gathered... "
Leoria laughed "heh", couldn't help hugging Qing Kong, and said, "You are so smart."
