"The last trip..." Turan's expression was complicated. These clues were intertwined, and it really felt like a storm was coming.
She looked down at the structural diagram she had just taken on the screen of her phone, "Then let's start from the ground floor first..."
At this moment, the glass door leading to the terrace was pushed open by three men. Turan's words stopped abruptly. She looked up at the people who came - it was the men who had just taken the photo.
"Excuse me!" The leading man quickly glanced at Turan, Si Lei and Hesta, and then walked up to Si Lei, "Are you also a passenger on the Shengming?"
"Also...?" Si Lei crossed his arms and did not answer directly.
"Haha, please don't mind if you guessed wrong. We are all going to get on this ship." The man looked at Turan's expression. "I think you guys just came down from upstairs and went to take a picture of this." There is a map next to it, so I was wondering if you were looking for a place like us."
"Where?" Turan asked.
The man shrugged lightly, pursed his lower lip and smiled, "...Maybe I made a mistake. I wish you a safe journey."
The moment the man turned around, a gust of wind suddenly rose from the ground. The two young men who had been following him suddenly screamed at the same time - the letter with instructions for boarding suddenly slipped from one of them's hands, and it flew along the air. The trajectory of the wind turned twice, and the two young men tried to grab it in a hurry, but the letter paper just like an elf bypassed their hands.
Outside the terrace was the tide. The two young men ran after the letter. However, the wind suddenly stopped at this moment, and the boarding instructions fell into Hesta's arms.
For a moment, everyone held their breath.
"Don't—" The young man was deeply afraid that Hestad would read the contents of the letter, but such a cry of fear was too obvious. He had already spoken, but he could only abruptly stop the second half of his sentence.
The strong man rushed towards Hestad almost at the same time. Turan reacted very quickly and stood between Hestad and the man before Si Lei drew his gun. In this tense moment, Hesta picked up the folded letter and motioned to the young man not far away to come and get it.
The young man was stunned for a moment before he realized what was happening. He quickly stepped forward and said, "...Ah, thank you!"
"It's windy at the seaside." Hesta's voice was hoarse. "Keep your things away."
The man on the other end looked at Hesta's expression - this woman never glanced at the letter paper from beginning to end, and the side with the writing on the letter paper was folded, so she probably didn't see anything.
The man turned around and scolded: "How many times do I have to tell you to put everything in your bag!?"
"Sorry, Mr. Bree, we..."
"Get back!"
The man turned around to leave, but Turan said coldly behind him: "It's okay if you don't say thank you. You rushed over so fiercely just now, and now you don't even have to apologize?"
The man turned around, briefly took off his hat in the direction of Hesta, and then walked away without looking back.
"...You have suffered a lot," Turan looked at Si Lei and Hesta, "You have to go with such people."
Hesta adjusted her sitting position and stretched out her hand to signal the other two people to come closer.
"What's wrong?"
"I just... noticed," Hesta whispered, "that there is no handwritten message on the back of their 'Instructions'."
Turan was startled, "Are you sure?"
Hesta nodded silently.
After a moment of silence, Si Lei said thoughtfully, "I suddenly had an idea..."
"What?"
"If handwritten messages are not standard, will the rules for those who leave messages and those who do not leave messages be the same?" Si Lei looked towards the direction where the people left, "Or will there be differences?"
…
"Friends in front!"
Bree turned around and saw the oldest of the three women running towards him. He motioned to the two young men to return first and stood where he was.
"What's the matter, ma'am?"
"You are looking for waiting room 12, right?"
Bree frowned, "...I clearly asked you just now——"
"I'm sorry, because our other friend didn't board the ship," Si Lei said with a smile. "The instructions for boarding this time were a bit strange, so we didn't show them to her."
"Then you are chasing me now because you want to...?"
"We should have the same purpose, otherwise why did you come to talk to us just now?" Si Lei stretched out his hand towards Bree, "Si Lei."
The man transferred the water glass from his right hand to his left hand, shook Si Lei's hand and said, "Will Bree."
"Perhaps we can leave a contact information?"
"Okay, ma'am, I'm happy to," Bree smiled, showing eight white teeth, "because I can see that you are a very well-educated person, completely different from your friend."
Si Lei did not respond to the second part of the comment. She smiled and exchanged each other's business cards with Bree, "You rely on friends when you go out... Actually, you don't have to be so nervous just now. After all, it was just instructions for boarding, not a ship card."
"Oh, of course I know it's not a ship card, but just as you wouldn't want your friend who wasn't on the ship to know about the whole thing, we don't want a stranger who has nothing to do with it to read it. That weird note.”
Si Lei looked at his watch and said, "There is less than an hour left. Why don't you go and store your luggage?"
Bree smiled thoughtfully, "You don't have to worry about that, we have a plan."
Si Lei once again glanced at the men's team not far away - at least half of the young men were empty-handed at this moment, and the remaining older men were still carrying backpacks, but all their suitcases were gone.
"Oh," Si Lei understood, "that's a smart move."
Bree was vaguely unhappy - there were so many of them that it was always easy to observe changes when they were gathered together.
He lowered his head and glanced at Si Lei's business card, and a hint of surprise suddenly flashed across his face, "Oh... you are a policeman? Are you affiliated with two agencies at the same time?"
"right."
"Amazing..." Bree restrained his previous frivolous expression, and there was a bit more respect in his eyes, "You seem to... well, you came earlier? Did you find anything?"
"It's not that early, maybe about a quarter of an hour ahead of you," Si Lei smiled, "I believe you should already know most of the information - there is no waiting room 12 here at all, and you can now go through the direct Direct access to the ship... as well as luggage check-in from reception.”
"Hey, yes... This matter is really confusing." He moved his eyes to Hesta, who was not far away. "Does the lady in the wheelchair also want to board the ship with you?"
"Yes."
"she is……?"
"She is the daughter of a friend of mine," Si Lei smiled. "I originally planned to go directly to the ship through the passage, but she was a little concerned about the "Guide" mentioned in the 'Instructions'. Anyway, there is still time, so I decided to Walking around with her——"
Bree burst out laughing.
"...Excuse me?" Si Lei looked at him, "What are you laughing at?"
"To tell you the truth, I think you two can actually board the ship directly. This activity should be a training game specially designed by the Shengming for our group of people - I guess the organizer may be doing it for the game. Because of the fun, the rule books were also distributed to other passengers.
"To be honest, this kind of activity is not suitable for ladies, especially if you are bringing someone with you..." Bree looked at Hesta in the distance, "Is she lame? I see that she has been sitting in a wheelchair... Anyway, , if you encounter any difficulties, you can contact me at any time, we will help wherever we can, have fun."
