The two twin cabins Sean and Moonlight purchased were right next to each other so they could keep an eye on each other during the trip.
After Sean put his luggage properly, he walked out of room 306 and saw Moonlight standing on the gangway smoking.
It was mid-morning, the sun was shining brightly, and the slightly fishy sea breeze blew, bringing with it the chirping of seagulls in the distance.
"Where's Evan?" Sean walked to Moonlight.
"He doesn't like to bask in the sun, so he reads in his room." Moonlight looked at the boarding passengers on the gangway and narrowed her eyes.
"Your students love learning more than you do." Sean joked.
Moonlight laughed dryly, patted Sean's arm, and motioned him to look towards the gangway with her eyes.
As soon as Sean turned his eyes, he quickly saw the target indicated by the moonlight - a young girl in a white dress, who must be in her early twenties.
Her golden hair was braided into loose braids, reflecting a jewel-like color under the sunlight.
Her fair skin made her red lips look gorgeous, and her lake-blue eyes had a cold brilliance.
She wore an emerald pendant the size of a pigeon egg, and the delicate facets of the gemstone reflected the sunlight.
New Testament City is not a crime capital. On the contrary, due to the strict control of the Salvation Church, except for the industries and areas dominated by gangs, the security in other places is excellent, so it is common for women to wear jewelry.
Jewelry and girls are both beautiful things in the world. When the two meet, it is enough to make those who see it marvel at the beauty of the world.
Sean and Moonlight were not exempt from this. After seeing the girl, they both let out a slight sigh of admiration.
The sea, cruise ship, sunshine, seagulls and girls...
Although Sean knows that Aaliyah is still not out of trouble, this journey will not be easy...
But he still had a little excitement in his heart before setting off for the trip.
The girl wearing the emerald walked to the corridor on this floor and walked towards where Sean and Moonlight were.
The pianist raised his eyebrows and stepped forward as if he didn't want to miss the good opportunity arranged by God. He took the wooden suitcase from the girl's hand very naturally: "Just leave this hard work to us mortals..." Moonlight had a friendly, controlled and gentle smile on her face, "Miss Angel."
There was a smile in his lake-blue eyes - Sean on the side sometimes really admired Yueguang's cheekiness.
The young girl looked at Moonlight and then at Sean. She didn't know whether she was happy because of Moonlight's compliment or shy when seeing the two gentlemen. Her fair skin turned slightly red.
"Oh, I have to show Miss Angel the etiquette of this world - here is the pianist Moonlight 1902, this gentleman..." Moonlight spread her hands to Sean, "He is the famous reporter in New York City, Mr. Wayne Dirac... …”
The girl giggled: "Call me Vivian."
"Okay, Miss Vivian..." Moonlight bent her elbow, "Let's enjoy this little journey to your cabin..."
About three minutes later, Moonlight came back: "Her cabin is also on this floor! Room 318!"
Sean took out a small notebook and was writing something down.
Moonlight looked nervously closer: "What is this? What are you writing?"
"Oh, this." Sean seemed to have already written it and put the small notebook into his pocket, "This is the notebook that Winnie gave me - she asked me to tell you the time, place, person and process of picking up girls. Write everything down so that you can settle the accounts when you go back."
Moonlight's knees weakened and she almost knelt down, holding onto Sean's arms: "Xiao...Wayne! Are we good brothers!?"
Sean made a stoic expression.
"People don't speak secretly!" Yueguang completely lost the pianist's demeanor, "How many New Zealand dollars can I give you to tear out the page just now?"
"It depends on your performance." Sean was completely in the state of Winnie's mother-in-law. "After all, Mrs. 1902 generously asked her husband to travel far away to help me. If I can't fulfill her request, I will have a bad conscience."
While the moonlight was still pleading, a pair of people with a special temperament passed by on the corridor.
The two stopped joking and looked over.
The woman walking in front was wearing a red dress that outlined her charming curves, echoing the color of her lips—scarlet as red as blood.
She has long, wavy black hair that covers half of her face. Under her wavy black hair, she has a pair of smoky eyes with thick eyeshadow.
Mysterious, but with a strong attraction, the red-lipped girl glanced at Yueguang and Sean with a smile on her lips as she passed by.
Moonlight Soul seemed to have been seduced away, and was about to follow the girl in red, but suddenly felt a hostile cold wind...
A strong man in a black suit walked diagonally behind the red-lipped woman. His eyes were fierce and sinister, his nose wrinkled in disgust, and his mouth was pursed tightly. He looked like he was not to be trifled with, and he squinted with some hostility. Moonlight wanted to get closer to the woman.
The strong man is carrying the woman's luggage and seems to be the woman's bodyguard.
After the two of them walked away, Sean guessed: "Is that woman a movie star or a female singer?"
The gorgeous appearance and fierce bodyguards make people have to make this suspicion.
Moonlight frowned: "That man may be a explorer... but his level is not high."
A colorful ball rolled to Sean's feet. Sean bent down to pick it up. He looked up and saw a little girl wearing a red plaid dress with two pigtails standing not far away, wringing her hands, looking a little shy.
"Yours?" Sean squatted down and stretched out the ball, but the little girl didn't dare to catch it.
The door of the next room opened, and an old couple came out. The man had sparse white hair, wore a pair of glasses with a high prescription, and was slightly hunched over.
His wife also had gray hair and was slightly chubby, but she looked energetic and had a warm smile on her face.
When the old couple saw Sean and the little girl face to face, the old lady smiled and said, "Anna, uncle gave you the ball, take it."
Little Anna turned back and took the ball nervously.
"This is our granddaughter. Her parents are too busy and rarely let her interact with new people, so she is a little shy." The old lady explained.
Sean stood up: "Will you two take her out to play?"
Anna hid behind her grandma and looked at Sean and Yueguang with one eye.
Her grandmother smiled and said, "Yes, this time my husband and I are taking our granddaughter along for our retirement trip."
Sean nodded: "My friend and I," he looked at the moonlight, "live next door to you. If you need help, just tell us."
The two old men looked at each other and looked quite happy. The old lady smiled and said, "My wife just said that young people today are not as good as before -" She looked at her husband with some pride, "Look, there are quite a lot of outstanding young people."
The old man's pupils were dilated by the thick lenses. The old man in a black fur vest nodded and smiled a little shyly.
After introductions, Sean learned their names were Sarah and Nash.
While we were chatting, the gangway had been put away more than once.
The whistle of the "Bronze Giant" sounded through the pier, seagulls flew away in fright, thick smoke poured out from the three front chimneys of the cruise ship, and the farewell crowd waved on the pier,
People were a little excited. Next to them, Sarah and Nash took little Anna and waved to the crowd under the boat. Sean and Yueguang could see a couple waving their arms. They must be Anna's parents.
The cruise ship left the dock and set off towards the depths of the sea.
Before, the sense of anticipation for the journey was still bubbling in Sean's heart like soda water, making people feel itchy.
However, a strong soul can always foresee crises and disasters.
At the moment of leaving Hong Kong, Sean suddenly felt something bad in his heart.
He frowned: "I'm afraid something will happen on this ship..."
