Xingxingzi suddenly changed her mind and became so paranoid. Someone must have said something to her behind her back.

Heichenshi forced himself to cheer up, and while asking the ship's doctor Tianlanlan to treat his wounds, he interrogated Xingxingzi on the spot.

No matter how he interrogated her or threatened her, Xingxingzi insisted that it was her own idea and had nothing to do with anyone else.

Yu Tong has been lying next to Brother Chen, secretly observing the people present.

The newly called ship's doctor, Tian Lanlan, was confused and nervous, and had no idea what was going on.

The captain's secretary, Hongying, was so angry that she trembled when she saw the captain being bullied like this.

The two brothers Tianluo and Diluo had gloomy expressions on their faces. If Heichen Stone hadn't stopped them, they would have pinned Xingxingzi to the ground and beaten him.

Judging from their reactions, these people are fine and can basically be ruled out as suspects.

Xingxingzi doesn't seem to be telling lies.

She really believed that forcibly regenerating the captain's limbs was her own idea and had nothing to do with anyone else.

There are three possibilities for this situation.

One, is the person who deceived Xingxingzi behind the scenes

, his rhetoric is very superb.

Not only could he give Xingxingzi psychological hints in less than an afternoon, but he could also clear himself of all wrongdoing after she was caught.

This possibility is unlikely.

If there really was such a powerful person on the ship, with Brother Chen's ability, it would be impossible for him not to notice the other party's presence.

Second, no one gave Xingxingzi any hints. It was the medicine that she injected into her body two years ago that affected her consciousness.

Limb regeneration potions can not only change a person's body, but also their cognition and thoughts.

Third, the changes in Xingxingzi have nothing to do with limb regeneration, or are not completely affected by the regeneration potion.

There is someone or something on this ship that is secretly changing the minds of the crew.

The limb regeneration potion worked gradually, but Xingxingzi's attitude changed suddenly.

So among the three speculations, Yu Tong is more inclined to the third possibility.

From Hei Chenshi's reaction speed when encountering danger and the attitude of the crew members towards him, it can be seen that he is actually a very successful pirate captain.

He can handle everything on the ship well, is loved by the crew, and has considerable prestige on the ship.

Yu Tong couldn't imagine why a calm, composed and capable captain like him knew that there were hidden dangers on the ship but never solved them.

He is not a careless person, so why can't he find out where the problem lies?

Yu Tong could see that Heichenshi's body was always tense.

Even though the people in the room were all his subordinates who were 100% loyal to him, he still couldn't relax.

Observing Brother Chen's reaction, a guess gradually emerged in Yu Tong's mind.

Hei Chenshi is unable to deal with the hidden dangers on the ship because everyone on this ship is an unstable factor.

They are all affected by something on the ship. They seem normal now, but one day they may suddenly become paranoid and turn into another star.

Heichenshi was very clear about this, but he couldn't find the root of the problem and had no way to solve it.

The situation was at a stalemate, and all he could do was block the news to prevent panic on the ship. At the same time, he was secretly on guard against everyone.

Yu Tong told the system his guess.

8102 was stunned for a moment, muttering: "Since the boat is so unsafe, why doesn't he just change boats?"

'Maybe he has changed it, but the problem is still not solved.'

[Then just abandon ship and run away, and stop being a pirate captain.]

"Is it possible that it's even more dangerous outside? To him, the perilous Skystar is already the safest place in the world."

【……】

[What the hell is this place?]

By the time Heichenshi finished bandaging the wound and dealing with Xingxingzi's affairs, it was already 2 a.m.

He was transferred to another ward and was taken care of by Tian Lanlan and another trainee ship doctor, while Tian Luo and Di Luo took turns on duty outside the door.

After tossing and turning for an entire afternoon, Hei Chenshi's body was covered in cold sweat and blood. Logically, he should clean himself up.

But Xingxingzi's incident had a significant impact on him.

He didn't want anyone near him.

Time passed minute by minute. Heichenshi, who was covered in wounds and frightened, kept reading on the bed and had no intention of sleeping at all.

Tian Lanlan and the trainee doctor had not been on the ship for long. They admired and feared the captain and did not dare to talk to him.

He stayed quietly on the small bed in the corner of the room the whole time and would only come over when he heard the order.

Seeing that the night light on the bed was still on until 4 a.m., the trainee doctor couldn't help but whispered: "Sister Lanlan, the captain is amazing. If I suddenly broke my arms or legs, I would definitely collapse."

Tian Lanlan nodded in agreement, "Of course it's amazing. The captain is the one who will lead us to the best waters."

"Is the superior sea area so good?"

"Okay, as long as we get there, we'll have the chance to become nobles."

Tian Lanlan's tone was full of longing, "Once we reach the prime sea area, we can become bodyguards for the nobles. The nobles love to hire pirates as bodyguards and are very willing to pay them."

"Most importantly, everyone who enters the Upper Sea will receive an immunity potion from the king. With it, even if we use the limb regeneration potion, we won't turn into a razor clam monster."

The trainee doctor blinked expectantly, "The captain's legs..."

"Then I can use the limb regeneration potion to recover without any worries. I heard that the waters there are much richer than the lower-class waters, full of pearls and gold. I dream of going to the upper-class waters."

The two spoke in a low voice, but Yu Tong could hear it clearly.

The plot of this world progresses too fast, and too many things happen in just one day.

Yu Tong's mind was filled with questions. After thinking for a long time, he still couldn't figure out any of them.
