That night, I discussed it with Ning Xue and the others, and we decided to go to the cabin and look for anything we could use. However, Gloria was afraid of the dark, so she didn't dare go down because there was no light below. At least on the deck, there was moonlight, so we could see clearly. So I let her stay up there with Don and Guy to fish.
Su Xiaoniu, Ning Xue, Xuanxuan, and Xiao Bingbing, along with me, went down to the cabin. We first arrived at the engine room, where the switch had already been turned off. I tried to push the switch carefully, but the generator was covered in dust and rust, and it wouldn't generate any electricity.
It seems that it is impossible to light up this ship.
After searching for a long time without finding anything useful, we returned to the deck. At this moment, the strong wind gradually died down, and the huge waves also stopped. At the same time, we also found that the closer we got to Yinshan, the worse the weather became, with strong winds and huge waves appearing from time to time.
The moonlight is shining brightly.
We gathered together to sleep on the deck. It was dark and eerie downstairs in the cabin, and no one dared to sleep down there late at night. Besides, it might be even colder downstairs than upstairs.
We made it to around 1am, when everyone fell asleep. Su Xiaoniu rested her head on my shoulder, drifting off to a sweet dream. Xuanxuan leaned on my legs and also fell asleep. As for me, I was still awake because I was still trying to comfort Xiao Bingbing.
This little Bingbing didn't want to talk to me at first, but she didn't dare to move too far away, so she could only listen to me ramble on for a long time. She said helplessly: "You must have been a woman in your previous life. You inherited the common characteristics of women in this life!"
"What commonality?"
"You talk too much!"
I rolled my eyes. Even women have to be discerning, right? Besides, wasn't I trying to enlighten you? Why are you talking so much?
Xiao Bingbing smiled and said, "Since you're not angry anymore, why should I blame you? After all, I was the one who made the mistake first. - From now on, we can still be good friends, right?"
I nodded and said, "Of course."
"Maybe I will have to call you brother-in-law in the future." Xiao Bingbing laughed softly.
However, my ears were so sensitive that I had heard it a long time ago. Just as I was about to explain something, she suddenly lay down on the ground, closed her eyes and fell asleep.
I am speechless.
The pale moonlight slowly hid in the clouds.
I don't know how long it was, Su Xiaoniu, Xuanxuan, Xiaobingbing, and Gloria all fell asleep, and I was also feeling drowsy, but at this moment, I heard a rustling sound. I forced myself to open my eyes and saw Ning Xue standing up and stumbling towards the bottom of the cabin.
I was stunned. Why was she going to the cabin alone in the middle of the night?
I woke up, and in order not to disturb Su Xiaoniu and Xuanxuan's sleep, I took great pains to push them together. I pulled myself away and quietly followed Ning Xue into the cabin. This ship was already eerie during the day, and now entering in the middle of the night was even more chilling.
It was pitch black all around, and I could barely make out the path after opening my divine vision. Ning Xue continued to walk downstairs, and I followed her. After turning two corners, I saw her enter a cabin. I glanced at the doorway and was startled. Isn't this the captain's cabin? What was Ning Xue doing in the captain's cabin?
Out of curiosity, I quietly hid at the door and peeked into the cabin. I saw Ning Xue walk in and skillfully take out the logbook from the drawer of the captain's room. Then, she bit her finger and wrote in the logbook with her blood.
I frowned. What on earth was going on?
After a while, Ning Xue seemed to have finished writing and put the diary back into the drawer, then she stumbled out again. I hid outside the door, but she was completely unaware of me and continued to stumble. Judging from her walking route, she should be going back to the deck above.
But I was very curious about what Ning Xue had written in the logbook. I slipped in decisively, opened the drawer, and flipped to the very back of the logbook. It was the page Ning Xue had just written in blood. A single, shocking sentence, written in crimson, appeared before my eyes.
The diary entry reads: My name is Ning Xue. The luxury cruise ship we were on encountered a severe storm in the Yellow River basin. The ship capsized, throwing everyone into the sea. After much struggle, we finally climbed onto the wreckage's deck. Just as we were at our wit's end, a massive cruise ship slowly approached us through the shroud of fog. Overjoyed, we boarded this unknown vessel without a second thought, only to discover it was a mysterious ship that had disappeared in 1930, and it was completely empty. When we discovered the ship, I was forewarned of my own death. This was written the day before my death. —And next, you!
I was startled. Wasn't this the sentence Ning Xue had read when we found this diary this morning? Why had she also written these words, which seemed to portend death? To confirm, I turned to the previous page, but was surprised to find that the diary, which had previously been filled with words, was completely gone. Only Ning Xue's words, written in blood, remained...
