Seeing Zhan Jingyi deep in thought, Zhong Qiang gritted his teeth slightly. Zhan Jingyi could slowly think about the problems here, but as the leader of these people, he couldn't, and the people around him were already a little panicked.
Gritting his teeth, he shouted: "Send someone to the monitoring room to check the surveillance and find these people for me. Each brigade will form a search team of ten people for me, fully armed, divided into floors, and check carefully for me floor by floor. Don’t miss every corner…”
"At the same time, the alarm sounded on the ship, and the loudspeaker kept playing the assembly announcement for me!"
"Everyone else, please stay here. You can't go anywhere. There will be a sentry at the door."
Hearing Zhong Qiang's words, these soldiers immediately felt at ease. As the saying goes, a general is a brave soldier. Even if these soldiers are still a little panicked, at least the chief officer has given orders. When there is something to do, they all speak loudly. Agree.
According to Zhong Qiang's order, naturally there are people below to carry out it, and soon the corresponding people will do it separately. For insurance, all the remaining people gathered together, in groups of three, to watch each other and not leave the restaurant. Waiting for the latest news.
Soon, as the people dispersed, someone came back through the intercom to report: "I checked the surveillance and found no trace of anyone. It seems that these missing people are invisible people. Even the surveillance did not capture their shadow." …”
"Everywhere in the cabin was searched, even every nook and cranny was searched, but no one was found."
"I've searched every room, but there's no one there..."
Just as Zhong Qiang and Zhan Jingyi were listening to the report carefully and thinking about what was going on, suddenly, a scream sounded from the crowd.
Everyone turned to look, and saw a tall and thin soldier screaming in surprise. He turned to look around him as if he had seen a ghost, but there was clearly no one there. The people around him were frightened by his expression. When I arrived, no one spoke for a moment.
"Old Liang...Old Liang is missing..."
The tall and thin soldier stammered, pointed to the open space next to him, and said: "He, he was clearly still here just now..."
Hearing this, Zhong Qiang's expression changed drastically, and he asked hurriedly: "When did you disappear?"
"Just... just now..."
The tall and thin soldier was almost crying out of fear, and said in a trembling voice: "I... I was talking to him just now, but as soon as I turned my head... he disappeared."
As he spoke, he subconsciously wanted to squeeze into the crowd around him, but the people around him backed away in fear.
"How can it be……"
Hearing this situation and feeling that the situation was escalating, Zhong Qiang's voice already had a little vibrato.
Zhan Jingyi didn't speak in a hurry. He raised his head and looked at the position pointed by the tall and thin soldier. When he looked over, he had already activated his mental vision.
However, he looked around the spot pointed by the tall and thin soldier, but found nothing abnormal there. There was neither spiritual radiation nor any spiritual monster.
Zhan Jingyi frowned and looked at Zhulong beside him.
Zhulong was also holding an instrument to detect mental levels at this moment, but the instrument did not respond at all.
At this time, everyone's heads were full of questions. It was obvious that this was another mysterious disappearance.
This is interesting...it happened in a place where everyone is concentrated.
"At least we can be sure now that we did encounter something strange..."
After pondering for a moment, Zhan Jingyi looked around calmly and said to Zhong Qiang: "Let's call back everyone outside first, so they don't cause any problems."
"I think what we need to consider now is not how to find those missing people, but to ensure that others will not disappear under our noses."
…
After hearing Zhan Jingyi's suggestion, Zhong Qiang immediately agreed to the proposal without thinking much, and quickly asked the soldiers who were out to report back quickly through the intercom.
He even asked the soldiers to open the warehouse and assign everyone a set of luggage, including mattresses and quilts. They had to sleep together even if they slept. Whenever they went out, they had to be in groups of at least three.
Thanks to the cruise ship's passenger capacity of 800 people, these supplies are fully stocked, and the restaurant is large enough that even if everyone spreads out on the floor, it won't look crowded.
When everyone was nervously holding their assigned luggage, everyone looked at each other, feeling indescribably depressed.
"Could it be that some powerful sea monster came in and killed them...killed them?"
"Don't talk nonsense, there are no sea monsters, they, I'm afraid... I'm afraid they were dragged away by ghosts, right?"
In the restaurant, under the dim light, everyone looked a little nervous. They kept looking around nervously, for fear that the people around them would suddenly disappear.
What's even more frightening is that the person who disappeared is himself.
There were also people who couldn't control their mouths and talked in low voices, but no matter what they said, they felt a little unreliable.
"Xiao Zhan, what do you think about this matter?"
Zhong Qiang, Zhan Jingyi, Professor Li Zhong, Aunt Wu, Chen Liang, Zhu Long and others gathered together and asked hesitantly.
Even though he was usually a conscientious commander and had absolute say among these soldiers, but now, he felt like he couldn't do anything. Now he had to ask Zhan Jingyi about everything, which felt like some obstacles in his heart.
However, after all, he was relatively familiar with Zhan Jingyi before, and had seen him take down the giant deer. Furthermore, he did know very little about these strange things, so he still asked about it.
"I haven't found the reason why those people disappeared. I can only give you a suggestion now."
Facing his serious expression, Zhong Qiang felt nervous and asked hurriedly: "What's your suggestion?"
Zhan Jingyi said: "It's better to be still than to move! Just wait for the monster to come to your door."
After hearing his words, not only Zhong Qiang's face looked a little strange, but also the faces of everyone on the side showed strange expressions.
The next moment, Professor Li Zhong took over the topic and said with a smile: "I think what War King said is very reasonable. The current situation is very complicated. Someone disappeared mysteriously in front of us, but we did not find any signs, and it is not an isolated case. Phenomenon, all this shows that someone or some monster is targeting us."
"In this case, faced with such a weird person or monster, if we go out rashly, it will be easier for it to take advantage of it. Therefore, I think the suggestion of the King of War is very reasonable. It’s better to be quiet.”
"this……"
Although Zhong Qiang didn't know whether this would be useful, but out of trust in Zhan Jingyi, he still nodded vigorously: "Okay, let's do this."
In fact, he has no good solution at the moment. If the enemy is right in front of him, as a soldier, he dares to say that he has nothing to fear even if it means death.
But the problem is that currently the enemy doesn't know where he is, so this will make him blind.
Therefore, in this case, Zhan Jingyi's words were still a pertinent suggestion, so he gritted his teeth and adopted his suggestion.
…
After gathering everyone back, the door of the restaurant was closed, and everyone sat and stood and began to wait patiently.
Time passed little by little, and I don’t know if it was because there were so many of them. In the next few hours, no one disappeared.
At this moment, looking outside through the glass of the window, the night has gradually enveloped. Everything is so quiet and peaceful. Only the river water surges gently under the hull of the boat, making a low gurgling sound.
The lights on the ship were weak and lonely in the night, and could only illuminate a small part of the deck. Most of the rest was a dark place. The moonlight was like silver, covering the deck with a thin silver gauze, and everything was dark. It seemed so cold and empty.
"Hey, these few hours have passed, and no one is still young!"
"Is that monster gone?"
"It's also possible. Maybe this monster has a small belly and took away a few people to eat it?"
"How about we go out and take a look? It's still a bit frustrating to stay here."
"Who dares to go out like this?"
After waiting and waiting, the sky turned dark and the monster never appeared. A group of soldiers in the restaurant couldn't help but become anxious again.
Originally, something like this would make people feel uneasy, but at this time, night has fallen again. If there is another wave of mermaid songs at night, it will be really fatal.
"Is this monster really gone?"
Seeing that there was no movement, Zhan Jingyi pondered for a moment and shook his head, thinking that this monster was too unreliable.
But he has no better way now, and his mental vision can't find anything abnormal, so he has been waiting here passively.
The researchers on the side, including Professor Li Zhong, did not have a better analysis because they had not seen any specific cases. This was a bit embarrassing. After waiting for a few hours, maybe this invisible monster had gone. .
