The island owner fulfilled his promise and provided the best food and wine to entertain the most distinguished guests.
He appreciated that Wang Dengming was the most unique guest on Evil Witch Island for decades. This dinner mainly thanked Wang Dengming for uncovering the murderer. He was happy and willing to make friends with Wang Dengming.
Wang Dengming didn't know what the most distinctive guest meant.
Helene thought that Chief Wang's appearance was more distinctive. If he applied for the Guinness Book of Records, the strength of his jaw muscles should be able to be nominated for the Guinness Book of Records.
The host and guest enjoy each other with cups and cups.
Although the food is not delicious, it is unique, and the wine is not top-notch, but it is memorable for the tongue.
Finish the wine and have a good meal.
The priest took the six people to the place where they lived, a small wooden building.
After the priest led them in, he arranged for the women to live downstairs and the men to live upstairs. Before leaving, the priest apologized to the female captain again.
Until then, the female captain was like a released prisoner, covering her face and mouth and crying bitterly.
Helenie wanted to persuade her, but Wang Dengming's eyes indicated that she should cry, and it would make her feel better if she cried.
The information provided by Deputy Director Sith is: No one on board the Whitesterdam was alive.
But the female captain appeared, appeared on the island, and appeared in this castle. She was not only humiliated but also almost lost her life for the murder of Hua Li.
What Wang Dengming didn't understand was that since the Whitesterdam already had people from the Unnatural Incident Investigation Bureau affiliated with the federal police system and people from the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration on board to investigate, she should go find the people who came to investigate. , instead of staying in this castle.
The detective smoked a cigarette and handed one to Wang Dengming.
Wang Dengming put the cigarette in his mouth and wanted to light it. Senxi looked at the lighter in his hand intentionally or unintentionally.
So he didn't light the fire.
He held the cigarette to his ear.
Espresso cried for a while, wiping her tears. Wang Dengming saw that it was almost done and asked: "Captain Espresso, you are very clear about my identity and purpose. The current situation is that I am here Those assisting in the investigation are assisting in the joint investigation of the U.S. Unnatural Incident Investigation Bureau and the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration. Under normal circumstances, they have sent a second group of people on board the ship and started investigating."
"Don't let them on the boat, don't let them on the boat!"
"What's on board?"
The female captain's face suddenly turned frightened, and her body was shaking violently, as if a person wearing single clothes had suddenly fallen into a pool of ice and snow.
Sensi hugged her.
Sensi's body temperature and comforting words made the female captain's condition a little better.
"Don't be afraid, you are safe now, very safe."
"Officer Wang, no, we are not safe at all. I'm afraid."
Detective: "Don't worry, Captain Espresso. With Sheriff Wang here, he won't let anyone hurt you. He's a monster."
"thanks, thanks....."
Helene: "Captain Espresso, you seldom eat during dinner. You only focus on drinking water. Your health..."
"I'm fine, thank you..."
Wang Dengming: "That's good, Captain Espresso. I want to ask you a few questions. Apart from you, who else is alive on the ship?"
"I was the only one. The first mate saved me. I was the only one who escaped."
"What exactly was on the ship? How did your crew members die?"
The female captain suddenly covered her head with her hands and said sharply: "I don't know, I don't know, I don't know..."
She began to cry again, and her body began to tremble again.
Wang Dengming put the cigarette from his ear into his mouth and lit it.
He intended to leave the captain in peace.
"Let's go for a walk."
The detective said: "It's best not to go out."
Wang Dengming wanted to ask why, but the detective looked out the window, "It seems like someone is watching us."
"Yeah?"
Of course Wang Dengming would not blatantly watch at the window, so he found an angle.
"I do not see it."
"They hide in dark places, in the dark corners of the eaves."
"Don't be suspicious, Inspector."
The detective smiled and said: "It seems that Senxi is the one who caused the trouble. Who made her so beautiful?"
"Then it'll be fine."
"No, I think things are not that simple. If the people monitoring us are sent by the island owner and the priest, hey, boss, we are in a very bad situation."
The female captain suddenly said: "The priest is the murderer, he is the murderer, he is the murderer..."
She said while crying, her voice was not loud and she deliberately suppressed it.
Wang Dengming opened his mouth and his cigarette hung on the ground.
"Captain Espresso, for the sake of the dead crew members, for the sake of the dead investigators, please stop crying and tell me what you saw on the ship, everything."
"I, I don't know what happened. My crew members died one by one. There were horrible sounds all over the ship. They were following me, chasing me, right behind me. I had nowhere to escape..."
"Okay, let's talk about the main point. Let's talk about the priest. The priest is the murderer. What's going on?"
Helene poured her a glass of water. The female captain drank half the glass of water, touched her heart a few times, and said: "Our ship departs from the port of Houston in southeastern Texas, and the destination is La Liberta, Ecuador. Germany (la libertad, EC) port, passing through the Panama Canal on the way."
Detective: "What's on board?"
"Soybeans and corn."
Wang Dengming: "Please continue, captain."
"When the White House departed from Houston, it was as usual, step by step. But when the White House was about to set sail, there was a man who wanted to take our boat. He..."
"Is he Father Louis from Witch Island?"
"I, I'm not completely sure. My mind is very confused. He doesn't have a beard. The one on the island has a beard. The beard will not grow so lush in a day or two."
Father Louis did have a beard, a beautiful beard. The first time Wang Dengming saw Father Louis, he thought that if the priest didn't have a beard, his image as a priest would be greatly compromised.
"When our ship approached Wicked Witch Island, he still had no beard. As soon as I landed on the island, his beard became so thick."
"Did the priest on the ship land on the island?"
"I don't know. We couldn't find him on the boat and thought he was missing. But when I escaped to the shore, I found this man appeared on the island. He changed from a magician to a priest."
"You mean the man who boarded the ship was a magician?"
"Yes, his name is Val Jonsson. He said he likes the sea. He asked me if I could take him to La Libertad and he could perform a magic show for the crew for free."
"Did he deliver?"
"He delivered. His magic show was wonderful and incredible. His magic box seemed to contain all the mysteries of the world."
"What does his trunk look like?"
"An oversized black box was very heavy and required two people to lift it. He said that all his props and secrets were in the box. In order not to ruin his job, he refused our inspection because he was a magician and boarded the ship. Then he showed his hands and conjured a seagull out of his handkerchief, so we were convinced and didn't check his box."
"and after?"
"Later, he would keep performing his magic tricks and the crew would be very happy. You know, sailing is boring."
"When did things start going wrong?"
The female captain thought for a while.
"Things started going wrong after entering the Caribbean. One crew member died suddenly. He was a man in the engine room. He died very strangely, as if he died while taking a nap."
"and after?"
The female captain held her head again.
Wang Dengming quickly said: "Let's not talk about how the crew members on the ship died. What is your basis for suspecting that there is something wrong with the magician?"
"Nothing has ever happened to the Whitestern. As soon as it came aboard, horrific things happened one after another. I suspected that there was something shady in his box. What was in it, I dare not think about it. It's too scary. .....”
"When did this guy disappear?"
"The day before the Whitesterdam ran aground."
"That is to say, the day before the Magician ran aground on the Whitesterdam, he was still on the ship."
"Yes, that's right."
"Why did the ship run aground?"
"The helmsman was killed and the Whitesterdam's route was tampered with, so it ran aground."
"When did you escape ashore?"
"The day after he disappeared, I went ashore."
"How long ago did you go ashore to see the present priest?"
"I saw him that night. Hua Li took me to see him. When I saw him, I almost fainted from fright. I didn't dare to speak. I didn't even dare to look at him. The strange thing was that he seemed It’s like you don’t know me…”
