Chapter 107 Disturbing Atmosphere

The sky was shining with stars, but the sea was covered with fog, and all the passengers on the boat were stranded around the deck and the top-floor open-air swimming pool.

The room was dark, and the people who were originally staying in the room walked out one after another, standing in the corridor with their cell phones waiting for news.

After a while, someone shouted, "There is a boat over there." The crowd seemed to be in a panic, because if someone's eyesight could see the boat approaching, it means that the distance was very close, the fog on the sea was low in visibility, and the two ships were too close, and there was a risk of impact at any time.

This time the captain did not give an explanation immediately. The person sent to the bottom of the ship for maintenance had not replied. The cruise ship lights went out. The captain arranged for people to hang emergency lights on the roof and railings. I don’t know if this thing is rechargeable or the principle, but there is no need to use electricity anyway.

But the passengers found the ship and leaned over and did not avoid the malfunctioning cruise ship.

The captain held the loudspeaker and shouted to the other party, but the ship was silent, only a red light was on the mast.

The ship had no power and slowly floated over, which might have been a malfunction.

With both ships deactivated power, they didn't end up really colliding together.

The floating ship was parked side by side with the cruise ship, about the same size, like two twin ships.

The atmosphere was strangely quiet for a few seconds. Everyone on the deck stopped moving and speaking, waiting for a while, but nothing happened.

The captain called a few people and boarded the bridge to board the boat next to him. Sometimes large ships have irreparable failures, or for special reasons, the captain and crew will choose to abandon the ship. Such ships will not sink immediately when floating on the sea.

The people came back half an hour later and said that the ship was an empty ship, with no living people and no corpses on it.

It was also a giant cruise ship. I looked at the behemoth in the fog and asked, "Can I visit everywhere in half an hour?"

Chen Qinghan shook his head very simply: "No."

Those crew members must be lazy and only looked at a few key areas, such as the cab, deck and cabin corridor.

They shouted loudly after boarding the ship, and they might have thought that there was no one else after getting a response.

The empty ship was quietly close to the cruise ship, not threatening for the time being, but the tense and uneasy atmosphere gradually became stronger. More than an hour passed, and the person who had disembarked for maintenance had not yet arrived.

The captain contacted them, but no one answered. He pulled the rope and found that there was only a diving suit and an oxygen cylinder left on the end of the rope.

Where is the person? After the four people went down, none of them were left, and all disappeared.

The tourists on the deck side saw it because they wanted to block the news. It was no longer possible to lock it up.

The zipper of the diving suit was not opened, the oxygen cylinder was connected to it, and it was not violently pulled. The tube was connected to it, and it felt like the person in the clothes suddenly evaporated.

The door was suddenly knocked, and I walked over and opened the door. This time it was Qi Xiuyuan. She was holding a candlestick in her hand and a black candle was inserted on it.

"Are you okay? I'm not at ease to come and take a look." Qi Xiuyuan held up the candle, and the candlelight reflected her beautiful face into a warm orange color.

"fine."

"I know the plan has changed. Now a special incident has occurred on the ship. My superiors told me to conduct a secret investigation and ask you to assist me in my work." She now looks like she is doing business and has no personal feelings at all. She looks quite like that. If she didn't show up with a black candle, I might have believed it.

"Oh... OK." I was waiting to record her criminal evidence, and she took it personally and I had to cooperate.

"Let's go, let's talk to the captain first." Qi Xiuyuan put the black candle on the shoe cabinet at the door, and the candle was only a very short piece. "The candles are not enough, I'll borrow two flashlights."

As soon as she turned around, I winked at Chen Qinghan and asked him to pay attention to the black candle.

Qi Xiuyuan put it down but did not blow it out, while Chen Qinghan and I were holding our mobile phones to illuminate it.

Actually, there is no problem with this action. I forgot and didn't pay attention to it, so there are many reasons to find.

I quickly blow out the candle, pull it out of the candlestick and put it in my pocket, which was one of her evidence of crime, and she would probably come back after success and take it away and destroy it.

Qi Xiuyuan quickly cut off two flashlights, and she and Chen Qinghan were the ones, but she had no choice but to me.

I walked beside Chen Qinghan, followed him, pretending that I needed light sources very much.

The captain's outdoor was crowded with people, and we couldn't even get close to the door. These people came to the captain, hoping that he would give him an explanation of when the cruise ship could resume normal sailing.

The staff outside kept explaining that when the fog cleared, they could send a distress signal.

Sending a distress signal instead of using communication equipment to request rescue, does this mean that the communication equipment on the ship is paralyzed?

But no matter how anxious the tourists are, they cannot change the fact that the cruise ship breaks down. The captain dares not send people off the bottom of the ship for maintenance. That is life and he cannot bear the responsibility.

Waiting for dawn is the only thing they can do at the moment. When the crowd dispersed, Qi Xiuyuan led Chen Qinghan and I into the captain's room.

Qi Xiuyuan took out a document, and the crew member of the door allowed it to go. I didn't see what was printed inside the document, and only saw the word "special" on the outer skin.

The captain was a middle-aged man with a gray hair with a slightly beer belly. He had seen Qi Xiuyuan's ID and pretended to be nothing, and finally showed a sad look on his face.

He said that he had been working at sea for decades and had encountered many strange things, but he had never encountered such a weird thing as tonight.

Four living people talked to him ten minutes ago, saying that there was something at the bottom of the ship that was entangled with the turbine. They tried to cut it with a knife, but it took a long time to cut it.

So they are going to use an underwater welding gun to see if they can cut it open.

Then there was no further information. After ten minutes, the captain wanted to ask how they were doing, but no one replied. It was not strange that one person's phone malfunctioned. If all four people had no response, something big happened.

As a result, something big happened. The four living people disappeared mysteriously, there was no cry for help on the sea, they didn't dive deep, and there was still remaining oxygen in the oxygen cylinder.

If they were attacked by creatures in the ocean, the diving suit would definitely not be intact.

For the living, seeing death is not terrible, especially the captain who has experienced strong winds and waves. What makes him uneasy is the invisible god of death.

Qi Xiuyuan asked to see the diving suits. The captain cooperated very well. His people had thoroughly checked it and found no clues.

The rope and the diving suit are placed together in the storage room, and you can ask for a seafood smell as soon as you open the door.

Qi Xiuyuan checked it first, and then asked Chen Qinghan to check it out. After finishing it, she went through the next procedure and directly omitted me.
