[Chapter 129, Endless Sea Territory-04]

After the captain urgently activated the seawater desalination system and replaced all the hot water equipment, the drinking water resources on the cruise ship finally returned to normal. In the afternoon, the collective diarrhea of ​​the tourists was also brought under control.

The captain soon told everyone that Qi Zhao, the logistics manager who escaped by poisoning, had been arrested by the police at the pier.

After interrogation, Qi Zhao confessed everything. It is said that because of his low salary and no bonus in the past few months, he lost all his property by speculating in stocks, his wife wanted to divorce him, and his life was not satisfactory. Water equipment, colleagues who wanted to damage the entire ship were demoted and punished. He did not expect that some tourists died due to severe diarrhea.

The police reported that the general manager Qi would be sentenced to death for "involuntary homicide".

Sino-Ocean also publicly apologized for the cruise ship drinking water pollution incident, and offered two solutions.

In the first option, they will send a "Starry Sky" cruise ship to arrive at the location of the "Royal Caribbean" as quickly as possible. Tourists who do not want to continue their journey can take the "Starry Sky" cruise ship to return, and use the ticket at The pier will get a full refund, and directly upgrade to VIP membership, and you can get a 20% discount on all cruise tickets of the ocean-going company next time.

The second option is to continue the trip. In order to express apology and sincerity, during the next 6 days of the "Royal Caribbean" itinerary, all food in all restaurants will be free, and all entertainment items that would have been paid for will also be free. Guests who are willing to continue their journey can also upgrade to VIP membership and enjoy a 20% discount on ticket purchases.

In addition, the company expresses deep condolences to tourists who suffered from severe diarrhea and died accidentally, and will provide corresponding compensation to the family members in accordance with the contract.

The captain asked the announcer to tell everyone the company's decision through the broadcast.

After hearing the solution, the aggrieved passengers expressed satisfaction with the company's attitude, and their emotions stabilized a lot.

Xiao Lou's eight people were crowded into a room on the third floor.

After hearing the broadcast, Shao Qingge couldn't help but praise: "Sino-Ocean Company has done a good job in crisis public relations. Upgrading the VIP membership appears to be compensation, but it is actually a regular customer. Everyone has the right to purchase tickets at a discount. In the future, they will definitely choose Sino-Ocean Company first. ship."

Xiao Lou asked: "According to Mr. Shao, do more tourists return or continue to travel?"

Shao Qingge smiled helplessly: "I think 80% of them will stay and continue to travel. All entertainment items are free, which is too tempting. Besides, many people take a 7-day cruise to go out to sea for fun. The entertainment items are free. You can Said it was in their arms."

Ye Qi asked curiously, "Will any challenger take advantage of this opportunity to return by cruise ship?"

Xiao Lou took out a pen and paper, quickly drew two routes, and said: "The 'Caribbean' we took departed in the early morning of last night, and it has only sailed at sea for 15 hours so far. The 'Mantian' who came to pick us up Asterisk' speed will definitely be faster. Even if the round-trip time is calculated as 30 hours, the challenger's total survival time at sea is only 45 hours, which is too far away from the 7-day survival goal. Leaving at this time is equivalent to giving up the mission. "

Yu Hanjiang suddenly said: "What if the 'Starry Sky' can't return to the pier on time?"

Xiao Lou looked at Yu Hanjiang suspiciously: "Can't go back? What does Team Yu mean?"

Yu Hanjiang said: "There is an extreme method - hijack the Starry Sky cruise ship and let it drift on the sea for seven days."

Everyone's eyes lit up when they heard this, and Ye Qi patted his head: "Captain Yu is right! If the challenger is brave enough to hijack the 'Starry Sky' and float on the sea in different routes for seven days, Does that count as mission completion?"

Lao Mo raised his thumbs up: "The goal of the mission is to survive at sea for seven days, and there is no restriction on which ship we can take. Hijacking other ships to float at sea for seven days also agrees with the request."

Xiao Lou smiled and said, "So, Captain Yu, are you trying to hijack this ship?"

Yu Hanjiang was silent for a moment, and said: "I would like to ask everyone for their opinions. Hijacking the Starry Sky is also a way to pass the level, but if you go too far, you may be mistaken by your cleverness. Don't forget Mr. Lessons that money buys..."

Shao Qingge rubbed his temples with a headache: "That's right, you still have diarrhea after spending money. Maybe we thought hijacking the 'Starry Sky' would clear the customs, but Ace of Spades directly sent the police to treat us as pirates. Take us back!"

Ye Qi nodded: "It's possible! Ace of Spades is so perverted, it feels more dangerous to play tricks in front of him."

Xiao Lou pointed out the key point: "Besides, none of us know how to sail a boat, nor can we understand the sea route map. What if we accidentally drive the boat into an area such as an iceberg or a reef and sink it? This kind of adventure Do not try it lightly.”

Seeing that everyone was not very supportive, Yu Hanjiang said in a low voice: "This approach is only feasible in theory, and it is really troublesome in practice. We will stay on the Caribbean Sea and wait and see what happens."

***

In response to the company's arrangement, the "Caribbean" stayed where it was, waiting for the ship to pick up people.

At exactly 23 o'clock in the evening, the accelerating "Starry Sky" finally merged with the "Caribbean" at sea.

The size of this ship is a whole circle smaller than that of the "Caribbean", and the cabin is only three floors high. The two ships are parked together, just like adults and children. After getting close, the sailors lowered the wide plank, and the announcement sounded on the cruise ship at the same time: "Every passenger, the ocean company sent to welcome you

The return ship "Starry Sky" has arrived. Passengers who do not want to continue the journey, please take your luggage and take care of the elderly and children, and go to the third floor as soon as possible to register at the "Starry Sky" cruise ship. "

There were chaotic footsteps in the surrounding cabins, and Xiao Lou and his party also climbed to the top floor to check the situation.

Sure enough, as Mr. Shao expected, about 20% of the tourists decided to go back. Most of them were families with the elderly and children. It may be that they were weak after diarrhea today. For the sake of safety, the family members gave up the next itinerary.

Tourists lined up to board the boat in an orderly manner.

At this moment, a few very special tourists suddenly appeared in the crowd, which caught Xiao Lou's attention.

It was a team of ten girls, and they wore sunglasses that covered most of their faces—it's normal to wear sunglasses when going out to sea, after all, the sun on the sea is too glaring. The strange thing is their clothes. Most girls will wear bright beach skirts or beautiful swimsuits when they go to the beach. They will look good in photos. But these eight people were dressed too plainly.

All black sweatpants, a T-shirt with a simple pattern, and flat sneakers.

Very easy to move around.

All 10 girls wore this kind of capable sportswear. Xiao Lou speculated that they were more likely to be challengers. He looked in the direction of the girls and whispered in Yu Hanjiang's ear: "These 10 girls should be challengers." The team formed, they all went to the Starry Sky."

Yu Hanjiang followed Xiao Lou's gaze, frowned and said, "These girls are uniform and well-trained. They don't look like a temporary team formed by novices. They shouldn't be so stupid as to leave the cruise ship and give up their weekly tasks. Maybe, they will hijack the 'Starry Sky' and pass the customs in the way I said. You see, each of them is carrying a bag, which must be full of food and water."

Lao Mo happened to be next to Team Yu, and when he saw them, he immediately said, "It's from Luoying Pavilion! This guild is dispatched every week in the form of an elite team of 10 people, and the girls never wear skirts during missions. They are all in uniform sportswear. Ordinary guilds dare not provoke Luoying Pavilion at all, their boss will take revenge, and whoever dares to kill members of her guild in the week, she will chase them to the end in the main city."

Yu Hanjiang asked in a low voice: "Does Lao Mo know much about this female president of Luoying Pavilion?"

Lao Mo called Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang to a corner, and said in a low voice: "No one knows her name, only her code name is 'Spider Goddess', and she has a limited artifact [Blood Spider] in her hand, which is a tool for cutting iron like mud." Every time she kills a person, there will be a blood-red line on the handle. According to rumors, a dense spider web has formed on the handle of her knife. I don’t know how many people she killed. The devil head."

Killing a person, one more line, this dagger is really evil.

However, to be able to manage a large guild well and unite the girls in the guild to complete weekly tasks in a team of 10, this guild leader is obviously a very capable woman.

Xiao Lou looked at the deck. Nearly a hundred tourists who had been transferred from the "Caribbean" to the "Starry Sky" had already boarded the ship, and the crew members on both sides were handing over information.

At this moment, another team of 15 people suddenly appeared at the junction of the two ships. The team consisted of men and women, and looked like a group of college students. The leader of the team smiled and said, "Sorry, I'm late. We are also preparing to return.”

The crew in charge of the handover said: "Please register your information with me and get on the ship as soon as possible. The ship will sail in 10 minutes!"

Likewise, these fifteen people were carrying schoolbags, all bought in stores in the shopping mall.

The bag was full, obviously supplies, and it looked like a Challenger team.

Fifteen people lined up to board the Starry Sky.

Then no one boarded again, and the connecting planks of the two ships were quickly put away.

After a long whistle sound, the "Starry Sky" turned its bow.

It was already dark, and the small cruise ship was painted in a dark blue color similar to the night sky, with warm lights on the ship, like a sky full of stars twinkling. The two cruise ships were traveling in the opposite direction, and within ten minutes, the "Starry Sky" disappeared from sight.

Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang took everyone back to the cabin on the third floor.

As soon as they entered the room, the soft voice of the announcer sounded in everyone's ears: "Dear tourists, I am very glad that you trust our ocean cruise company to continue this trip."

"There are still 6 days left for the next itinerary. Starting tomorrow, all fruits, drinks, and food on board are free. You are welcome to taste them. Experience items such as sea glider, parachute, and aerial observation deck will also be free. Please go to the service center in advance Make an appointment. In addition, performances in cinemas, music bars, and grand theaters will also be shown for free, and the number of times will be increased.”

"Starting at 9 o'clock every morning, every two hours, the 4D cinema on the seventh floor will play classic movies in a loop, including "Titanic", "Extreme Escape", "Water Monster" and "Deep Sea Havoc". You can choose your favorite movies watch."

"Every day at 10:00 am, 15:00 pm, and 20:00 pm, the Grand Theater will stage a real-life drama. Our professional actors will present the classic drama "Thunderstorm" to you. The most advanced lighting, the best sound and projection technology will Bring you the ultimate audio-visual feast."

"We once again express our sincerest apologies for the food poisoning incident on the first day. I hope that you will have a pleasant and unforgettable six days in the next journey. The time is now 24 o'clock in the morning, and the cruise ship will enter energy-saving cruising mode, the lights in the corridor will be turned off by 60%, please go back to your room to rest as soon as possible, I wish you all a sweet dream, see you tomorrow!"

After listening to the broadcast, Ye Qi couldn't help complaining: "Putting

None of the movies are auspicious, the Titanic crashed into an iceberg, the water monster panicked, the deep-sea catastrophe, the ultimate escape... put these things on the ship, it's no wonder that nothing happens! "

Shao Qingge didn't want to comment on the Ace of Spades anymore, he pressed his temple and said: "This clearly tells us that there will be many surprises in the future, please be prepared."

As soon as Mr. Shao finished speaking, a message was flashed in the floating frame in front of everyone at the same time——

[Endless Sea, second day, 00:00]

[Number of remaining challengers on the Royal Caribbean: 450]

Seeing this number, Yu Hanjiang immediately frowned: "The total number of people at the beginning was 500, and there are 450 left. Have 50 people disembarked?"

Xiao Lou quickly calculated: "The team that died in a police boat had 10 members; the girl group from Luoyingge had 10 members, and the team that boarded with them later was 15 people...there are 15 more. ? Let’s leave the ship collectively, it’s impossible for us not to find out, right?”

Lao Mo thought about it carefully, and suddenly said: "It is probably also the elite team of the Great Guild!"

Xiao Lou was very puzzled: "Compared with normal tourists, the characteristics of challengers are obvious. Everyone is not allowed to bring luggage before entering the secret room, and the bags they carry must have been bought temporarily by shopping malls; there will be no old people and children in the group; More than 8 people act in groups. 15 people act at the same time, it is impossible for us to be unaware..."

Speaking of this, Xiao Lou was startled suddenly: "Could it be that these 15 people are all wearing invisibility cloaks?"

Just now, during the transfer of tourists from the "Caribbean" to the "Starry Sky", after the last tourists were gone, because the persons in charge of the two ships were handing over, the "wooden bridge" connecting the two ships was 5 minutes later. Just put it away.

During those 5 minutes, there was no one on the bridge.

However, there were signs of slight shaking on the wooden bridge. At that time, Yu Hanjiang thought it was the shaking caused by the ship not coming to a complete stop. Now it seems that someone was actually passing by. They wore invisibility cloaks, so they couldn't see, but they still had weight, bending the planks.

Yu Hanjiang said firmly: "There are still 15 people who should be wearing invisibility cloaks. They took advantage of the last 5 minutes to go to the 'Starry Sky' to lurk. If 15 people can collect the rare card [Invisibility Cloak], unless the Grand Guild Only then can we have such strength.”

Xiao Lou stroked his chin thoughtfully: "The 10 girls from Luoying Pavilion went to the 'Starry Sky' first, followed by a team of 15 people all composed of young people, and 15 people went there in stealth Touch it... so many elite teams go to that boat, are they sure that the clearance rate of the 'Starry Sky' will be much higher than that of the 'Caribbean Sea'?"

Old Mo said: "Weekly missions are not necessarily safe in places with fewer people, but there is one thing - follow the Grand Duke, and the probability of clearing the customs will be higher, because those elite teams are fully armed, have good cards, and combat effectiveness Extremely strong. After this group of people go to 'Mantianxing', they will definitely quickly control the entire cruise ship, lock up the captain and crew, and sail the ship into the sea by themselves."

Xiao Lou said with emotion: "It seems that the 'Starry Sky' at this time is all masters."

Lao Mo smiled and said: "Don't worry, our team also has many masters. Moreover, the 450 challengers left on the 'Caribbean' may also have a very strong team. When the time comes, it will be really dangerous. Which side It may not be possible to pass the customs.”

***

At this time, the starry sky cruise ship, the captain's room.

The captain was complaining in a low voice: "It's really unlucky, I planned to spend my birthday with my wife tonight, but something like this happened to the Caribbean Sea, and we were temporarily transferred to pick up people..."

At this moment, his neck suddenly felt cold.

Two girls entered the cockpit like ghosts, and pressed sharp daggers against the throats of him and the deputy captain.

A cold voice came from behind: "Don't look back, raise your hand, turn off the pager, or you will die."

The captain turned pale with fright, and immediately raised his hand, his voice trembling with fright: "Don't, don't kill me!"

The girl neatly twisted his hands behind his back, tied them with a rope, and then stuffed a towel into his mouth, and tied the captain and the deputy captain back to back in the corner. The two walked to the bridge, looked at the navigation map, and after some operations, the Starry Sky turned the bow again in the middle of the night.

At this time, the passengers who were already asleep were unaware.

Two people who were invisible on the boat suddenly appeared behind the girl, and said with a smile: "Luoying Pavilion's action is neat, but we are still a step behind. This time, we happened to be matched in the same weekly dungeon, how about we cooperate and win together? "

The girl glanced at him, and said coldly: "No accident, there will be a typhoon or heavy rain tomorrow, and the cruise ship will be controlled by our sister Lin. You'd better not make trouble, otherwise the ship will capsize, and you will go to the sea to feed the fish together!"

The man waved his hand immediately: "Yes, we don't make trouble."

***

At the same time, the Royal Caribbean.

The teammates went back to their rooms to rest, and Xiao Lou stood on the balcony without any sleepiness.

In the middle of the night, the sea in the distance became pitch black, as if a black hole was about to engulf the entire cruise ship. Yu Hanjiang walked up to him and asked in a low voice, "Aren't you sleeping yet?"

Xiao Lou said: "The weather is fine now, and the sea is calm and calm. I'm wondering when the storm will come."

Yu Hanjiang said with interest: "Oh? What is the result of the guess?"

Xiao Lou turned his head, looked at him with a smile and said, "Maybe it has something to do with the drama. I think it will be 10:00 am, 3:00 pm, and 8:00 pm tomorrow, when the drama "Thunderstorm" is playing. The Grand Theater will play "Thunderstorm" , there is also lightning and thunder outside, so

It will be more suitable for the occasion, and it will also echo the perverted personality of the Ace of Spades, isn't it? "

He was still in the mood to joke.

The corners of Yu Hanjiang's lips raised slightly, he gently wrapped his arms around Xiao Lou's shoulders, and said in a low voice, "Don't worry, what should come will always come, and we will definitely get out of this sea area smoothly."

Xiao Lou nodded—with Team Yu by his side, he never worried about customs clearance.

Sometimes, you don't need too many reasons to believe in someone.

The author has something to say:

The balance is insufficient during the National Day holiday, everyone will go to school/work soon, please leave a message!

If you don't leave a message, I guess many people will come to see me next week T_T
