In order to prevent confusion, the captain suppressed the stowaways and did not tell the guests and the staff of the program team. Only the crew members carried out an emergency search layer by layer.
On a secluded cruise ship, any negative emotion can become a catastrophe spark.
But no one will guard against a harmless little white cat. Cui Zuojing has Victor to do intelligence collection, and presumably other pilgrims have their own magical powers.
All the pilgrims are waiting for a good show.
Most of these people have figured out the name and type of the box, and also know that something must happen to the ship so that they can reach their destination, the island called Dusk Island.
But soon they thought otherwise.
Because another person died.
The incident happened on the sixth day of the ship, 29 hours after the captain strictly controlled the food.
The deceased was a crew member who went missing during a search of the ship's second-class cabin, and by the time people found him, he had been turned into a mutilated body.
His arms, torso and legs were all eaten, and the wounds were terrifyingly torn as if... something starved to his senses bit his arm, tore a piece of flesh from it alive, and swallowed it. belly.
If there is no food, eat people.
The crew was discovered by a staff member of the show group. She was checking the hidden cameras on the ship one by one, and she found a bloody body in the corner of the corridor.
The news was completely hidden.
The people on the boat fell into an unavoidable panic, and the pilgrims could not sit still. This wound did not look like a human bite.
Filming of the show was stopped urgently.
The Wonton Splitter Squad held a second small meeting in Dong Zheng's room to discuss the current situation.
Cui Zuojing: "Can't wait any longer, remember, I told you at Doll's House at the time, if you encounter danger and avoid it, you may miss some important clues and gains."
Dong Zheng nodded. At that time, he heard crying in the women's toilet. He followed Cui Zuojing's suggestion to complete the commission of the little girl ghost and obtained a bag of buttons, which made the subsequent development of the plot a lot smoother.
Even if the dolls were caught in jail after all.
Linhai: "Then what are we going to do, to help find stowaways?"
Cui Zuojing snapped his fingers, and said with satisfaction, "You can teach Ruzi, it's not our style to sit still."
An hour later, the captain's room.
"You said you wanted to help us find stowaways?" The first officer thought he had heard it wrong.
Dong Zheng: "Yes, they won't be caught for a day, and they won't get peace on the ship for a day. Although we are not professionals, it is better to search with more people."
The first officer and the captain looked at each other: "If this is the case, we can't guarantee your safety. Arthur was killed during the search. It is relatively safe to stay in a crowded area."
Dong Zheng didn't think so: "If the ship is really dangerous, there will always be an accident no matter where you stay."
The captain looked at the young faces in front of him, and said worriedly: "No one wants to see this kind of thing happen. There are stowaways on the ship because we didn't check well, and we should take full responsibility. You are still so young, in case something happens. …”
Cui Zuojing understood what the captain was worried about: "Don't worry, we are ready, no matter what the consequences are, we will bear it ourselves."
Seeing him say this, the captain finally relieved: "Okay, I will divide you and the crew into different groups. The crew in charge of the search has weapons on their bodies, and they can protect you in case something happens."
It was finally settled, and just as everyone was about to leave, there was a knock on the door of the captain's room.
The person who came was the gray-eyed man Cui Zuojing had met in the corridor. Seeing everyone in the Wonton Splitter team in the captain's room, he didn't seem surprised at all, his eyes swept over everyone's faces, and he said to the captain: " I hope to be able to work with the search team to find the stowaways."
The captain didn't expect that one or two would be willing to swim in this muddy water. He glanced at Dong Zheng subconsciously, and Cui Zuojing shrugged his shoulders and said, "We really are not a group."
During the time on the ship, Cui Zuojing basically recognized all the pilgrims. This man was named Domingo and called himself a Spaniard. He entered the box alone. The word "loneliness" is written on it.
"Okay." The captain sighed and introduced the man: "This Mr. Dong also offered to help with the search, and I will organize you into a team."
Domingo nodded lightly to Dong Zheng, as if he had known him. Dong Zheng looked at him with an inexplicable feeling.
At the moment when the two eyes crossed, Domingo looked away.
Not long after they returned to the room, the search team came over. The grouping has been completed, Dong Zheng and Cui Zuojing, Lin Hangzhi and Allen, Domingo and Dong Linhai Wangque, together with the crew of the three teams, searched the warehouse, the power cabin and the central garden respectively.
Each of them got long sticks, daggers, and electric shocks for self-defense.
Taking advantage of Domingo's inattention, Dong Linhai whispered to Wang Que: "By the way, can't you control the bugs? Can you find where the stowaways are through their vision?"
"No." Wang Que refused, "It's disgusting. When I control the bugs, I will get the same feeling from them. I don't want it."
The central garden is in a tropical rainforest style, with lush plants, lush water and grass, and there will also be some small insects. The crew carefully searched every corner. Dong Linhai and Wang Que walked behind, whispering while searching, as if they were on an outing. .
Halfway through their search, Dong Linhai suddenly found that there was one missing person.
"Eh? Where did Domingo go?" Linhai grabbed his hair and asked, "Did you see him?"
Wang Que shook his head.
Domingo usually doesn't say a word, so he doesn't have a sense of existence, and Linhai doesn't even know when he disappeared.
... will it be okay
This idea was denied by Dong Linhai as soon as it came up. He seemed to have unreasonable trust in Domingo. He believed that this person's ability was much stronger than what he showed, and he would not easily lead him.
Maybe just sneak somewhere to rest.
Cui Zuojing and Dong Zheng walked in the power compartment.
It's pretty hot and noisy here, criss-crossed with pipes, block boilers and electric motors. After walking for a while, Cui Zuojing had a thin layer of sweat on his forehead. He rolled up the sleeves of his shirt, held the steel pipe in one hand, and walked through the narrow aisle.
In addition to the two of them, the search team also had three crew members, all equipped with a full set of electronic communication equipment. They were also very flustered and irritable about what happened on the ship, but their excellent work ethic kept none of the three in front of Cui Zuojing and Dong. Complain in the face of these two guests.
After I go back, I'm going to eat an iceberg snow top. Cui Zuojing was thinking, when suddenly he saw a belt between the two pipes.
"What's that?" He poked with the long stick.
The others turned around when they heard the sound, and the leader of the search team pulled out the strap. It was a brown cloth strap more than one meter long and two fingers wide. with bloodstains.
Dong Zheng: "Belt?"
"Like." The captain nodded, his face dignified, this blood is most likely from his dead colleague.
Captain: "Be careful, there's a good chance those things are nearby."
They continued their search, but this time with a much more vigilant pace, sweat dripping from their foreheads, unable to tell whether it was from the heat or the cold sweat of fear.
Until a little dark red appeared on the ground, like drops of blood falling on the ground, and then being trampled to pieces, leaving circular spots on the ground.
A few tens of centimeters away is another point. The blood spots are densely connected in a string, extending to the most dense and complicated corner of the pipeline.
The captain pressed the palm of his hand down to signal everyone to keep quiet. He scratched his fingernails on the communicator several times to send a signal to other nearby squads.
The weapons in everyone's clenched hands quietly approached the corner where the blood spots finally disappeared.
"squeak!"
A scream suddenly exploded from the top of everyone's heads, and everyone raised their heads subconsciously. Except for Cui Zuojing, the young man strode forward and blocked in front of the search captain. With a long stick, he stopped the creature that jumped out of the blind spot. !
At the same time, the sharp claws that jumped from the pipe above his head also caught Dong Zheng. There was nowhere to hide in the narrow aisle. In a critical moment, Dong Zheng lifted the long stick and turned it around, stuck between the pipes on both sides, just blocking it. The body of the monster rushed down.
That thing was about the size of a lynx, with a cat's head and a dog's body, a fox's tail, long brown fur all over its body, and extremely sharp claws.
It was blocked by a long stick and fell to the ground on the way to the ground. It immediately stood up again, stared at the people in front of it, opened its mouth, and there were still traces of blood and blood on its teeth.
With one sweep, Cui Zuojing threw out the other guy who was going to make a sneak attack while his companions were attracting attention. If it wasn't for him, with the level of cooperation between these two monsters, it would definitely be able to bite the head off before anyone could react. human neck.
The teenager took two steps back, bumped into Dong Zheng's back, and stopped.
The cat-headed dog who was thrown out by him got up, bared his teeth and let out an angry growl from his throat, leaned forward and stared at Cui Zuojing, ready to pounce at any time.
Five humans were back to back, and two monsters were on either side of the aisle, blocking them both front and back.
Cui Zuojing didn't feel nervous at all, he touched his bulging trousers pocket - there was a long piece of toilet paper for wiping sweat: "I'll just give it to you, can I do it?"
"Yes." Dong Zheng reached out and grabbed the stuck long stick and took it off.
The crew did not expect this development at all, and the two passengers were nothing like what they had imagined!
Soon they calmed down. The engine compartment was full of metal. For the safety of the entire boat, they couldn't use the stun gun pinned to their waists, so they immediately replaced the stun gun.
The dark muzzle of the gun undoubtedly made the monster feel full of threats. It roared, no longer hesitated, and rushed straight towards the people!
At the same time, Cui Zuojing also moved.
Holding a long stick in one hand, he took out a roll of paper from his pocket in the other, and shook it violently—
The soft toilet paper fluttered in the air like a white ribbon. The cat head dog obviously didn't take this seriously. When its front paws touched the paper towel, the paper surface it touched suddenly became extremely sharp. Cut the claws directly!
Blood spurted out and landed on the paper.
The cat head dog screamed, and the forward pounce immediately went out of shape. Cui Zuojing smashed it in the abdomen with a stick, knocking it over to the ground, and blood foaming in the mouth.
The battle was over in five seconds, the toilet paper turned into a pile of powder, Cui Zuojing knocked the monster unconscious with a stick on the head, and leaned over to check its body structure.
There was chicken flying and dogs jumping behind him, and the voices of Dong Zheng and the crew when they were fighting were endless. Cui Zuojing ignored it. He concentrated on turning over the monster's body, trying to figure out what it was.
Hmm... a bit familiar, what is this called
Just as Cui Zuojing was searching for relevant information in the memory hall, he suddenly heard someone shout, "Be careful!"
The boy raised his head, his pupils shrank suddenly, and a black fog appeared in front of him at some point!
The humanoid creature with black-faced fangs and wings on its back is holding a sharp axe, and it is holding it high, and it will cut off its head if it is aimed at him!
