Chapter 319 I Found the Murder Weapon



Lu Wuyai did not confront them directly. After all, he was alone, and there was no need to take the risk.

Ten minutes later, he walked to the container where the generator had been found the day before. Looking down, he could see that the cargo hold entrance on the deck had been opened at that very moment.

Lu Wuyai squinted and lay down on the container on the fifth floor.

The northwest wind howled, and ice crystals filled the air, making it difficult to hold one's breath. Lu Wuyai felt he was doing relatively well, but the survivors outside the cargo hold were in particularly bad shape.

They found a box of food today and are very excited; they're moving things around now.

Because of the cold weather, the group started packing the goods from the container, passing them around by tossing them back and forth between each other, a few meters apart.

After the other party entered the cargo hold and closed the cargo hold door, Lu Wuyai got out of the box and came to the outside of the container they had moved earlier.

Upon opening the box, Lu Wuyai discovered it contained vacuum-packed beef and mutton. The quality was excellent, and it even came with a special seasoning packet. It didn't look like something an ordinary person would eat.

"Hey, hey," Lu Wuyai smiled slightly, picked up the duffel bag from behind him, and found that it contained three bags, more than the group of people had carried earlier.

Back in the cockpit, Lu Wuyai emptied the fresh meat from the bag and continued moving food around in the container until it was empty. No one came out of the cargo hold.

For the next few days, Lu Wuyai closely monitored the enemy's actions. He removed almost all the food and fresh water they had found.

It wasn't until the seventh day of the cruise that the group discovered the cabins they had visited earlier were inexplicably empty.

On this day, Lu Wuyai watched the angry survivors and hid on the box, chuckling to himself.

Although he was quite busy during this time, he was still quite happy to make these people suffer. Of course, his purpose in doing so was to make their lives less comfortable.

In recent days, the ice storms have significantly decreased. Although the wind direction has fluctuated several times, everyone has a general feeling that the ice storms will soon stop.

Once the storm subsides, this group will definitely cause Lu Wuyai and the others considerable trouble.

On the sixth-floor container, Lu Wuyai couldn't hear what the other person was saying. He quietly climbed down from the container, because the other person had already left.

Unexpectedly, the moment Lu Wuyai landed, two people appeared between him and the person in front of him, blocking his path.

Seeing this, Lu Wuyai felt flustered because the other party was blocking him.

Neither side launched an attack. Lu Wuyai quickly realized that the two men might not be armed, and that they might be worried that Lu Wuyai might have guns if he didn't attack first.

In fact, Lu Wuyai did bring a gun. He reached into his pocket and made a gesture to draw it. But the other party remained as steady as an old dog, completely unmoved.

Lu Wuyai didn't know what the other party meant, but it seemed that the other party already knew about his previous espionage activities and cargo transportation.

“Since you’re not moving, then I’ll use it as my target.” Lu Wuyai thought to himself. This time, he reached into his pocket, pulled out a real gun, and fired a shot in one direction.

The opponent dodged very quickly; the moment the gun went off, he was gone.

Lu Wuyai gave chase, intending to kill his opponent, but as soon as he left the narrow gap, he was sent flying. Fortunately, the gun didn't escape his grasp. As he flew headfirst, Lu Wuyai continued firing, hitting his opponent.

The instant he fell to the ground, Lu Wuyai quickly stood up and ran towards the deck.

Behind him, someone was chasing him, throwing things at him from time to time, trying to hit Lu Wuyai.

But eventually the ice storm intensified. Lu Wuyai hid in a narrow crevice nearby, tripped someone with his foot, and then shot the person behind him to death, forcing the other person to stop.

After a while, Lu Wuyai dragged the stumbling corpse into a container.

Seeing that the other person was still unconscious and had blood all over his mouth and nose, Lu Wuyai pinched him directly.

The stinging pain gradually brought the man back to his senses. When he saw Lu Wuyai before him, his pupils suddenly widened, like a startled wildcat, or a wolf with explosive fur. Lu Wuyai also felt goosebumps rise on his neck.

"Speak it out."

Lu Wuyai was originally half-crouched on the ground. Seeing this, he stomped his feet on the ground and jumped up behind him.

There were some subtle movements in the air. Lu Wuyai stood upside down, terrified for a long time.

It makes a clanging sound.

Several iron needles fell to the ground, making a very sharp sound.

Lu Wuyai raised his gun, signaling the other party not to make any rash moves.

The man raised his hand, revealing a watch on his wrist. Lu Wuyai stared at him. The iron needle had just emerged from the watch. Had Lu Wuyai not been sharp-eyed and avoided the sharp blade, the outcome would have been dire.

"Who are you?" Lu Wuyai asked. He spoke the language of the Eagle Kingdom, and the other person was a white-skinned, blond-haired foreigner.

But the other person didn't say anything and continued walking forward toward the door of the iron box.

With a bang.

The bullet struck the sole of his opponent's foot. Lu Wuyai looked cold at that moment, but after his opponent's brief groan of pain, he stared intently at Lu Wuyai like a venomous snake.

"If you don't speak, you'll die." Lu Wuyai said that the distance between the two sides was always kept within his control.

The pain of a bullet hitting flesh is like a fire burning inside the flesh; it's very uncomfortable.

The other person spoke, but Lu Wuyai couldn't understand them because their accent was too strong.

“I completely don’t understand.” Lu Wuyai was speechless for a moment. He shot his opponent. The bullet struck his forehead, and his brain exploded.

Lu Wuyai wiped the blood off his face and calmed down as quickly as possible.

He checked the man's body and was surprised to find that the man had a small crossbody bag on his back.

Ten minutes later, he returned to the container at the cargo hold entrance and found the area deserted.

After thinking for a moment, Lu Wuyai returned to the cabin. When he came out again, he had a package with some fishing line and bombs inside.

Back at the cargo hold entrance, Lu Wuyai set traps in several open containers, all of them bomb traps.

"They're not good people anyway. We'll kill as many as possible before the storm ends."

"But it's a pity about what's inside." Lu Wuyai shook his head. To avoid the same trap being discovered, he set traps in different locations.

Throughout the day and the rest of the day, Lu Wuyai did not hear any bomb explosions in the cockpit.

The next morning, Lu Wuyai, who was lying on the blanket, opened his eyes, stood up, and looked out at the dim environment from the cockpit.

Amid the howling wind, the faint sounds of explosions could be heard, and more than once.

Lu Wuyai quickly put on his clothes, grabbed his backpack, and left the place as soon as possible.

Ten minutes later, on the sixth-floor container, Lu Wuyai looked down at the awkwardness and tragedy below, but his heart was not greatly disturbed.

At least ten people died in this wave, and the remaining number is estimated to be in the single digits.

“I deserve it,” Lu Wuyai thought to himself.

On this day, Lu Wuyai did not continue to linger near the cargo hold, but instead looked for new containers and prepared to set off.

At noon, he returned to his cabin and found several women waving at him.

"What's wrong?" he asked, noticing that Gu Yuxin was actually holding the shoulder bag of the man he had killed in the container yesterday.

“We know what these people do.” Gu Yuxin held up what she was holding, a proud expression on her face.

Simply put, Lu Wuyai sat down and listened to Gu Yuxinyi's words.

"Listen." Gu Yuxin picked up her shoulder bag, exposing the inner cabin to Lu Wuyai. The latter discovered that there were other things inside the shoulder bag. There were more than what was initially visible, including several sealed compartments.

Song Xiaoyou took out a piece of paper and said that the paper was taken out from the interlayer.

The paper was covered in dense writing. Lu Wuyai was dazzled by it and asked the woman to translate it directly for him.

“No translation needed,” Gu Yuxin said. “These people are actually assassins. The text on these documents describes the targets of their operation last year. The person you killed yesterday was called the accountant; he was in charge of recording the operations.”

Hearing this, Lu Wuyai was taken aback for a moment, but quickly felt relieved. The world is so big, anything that happens can be understood.

"It really is an assassin organization."

Lu Wuyai shook his head, never expecting that one day he would have to deal with these people.

There are tens of thousands of words on a small A4 sheet of paper, and only someone with Song Xiaoyou's exceptional eyesight can decipher them one by one.

Lu Wuyai was still a little dizzy. He didn't know why these assassins were still killing people in such a huge environment.

"It's probably used for exchanging supplies," Song Xiaoyou said.

"The information above says that you can get a lot of food from each mission. These people may be killing people just to survive."

"It's ironic to kill for survival." Lu Wuyai shook his head, suddenly remembering that he had done the same thing when he first landed on the deserted island.

Fighting over a cookie, getting tangled up over a little water, even...

Lu Wuyai sighed, cutting off his chaotic thoughts to prevent himself from getting entangled.

“But there’s some information here that really needs to be studied carefully,” Gu Yuxin said.

She looked at the newspaper. Although the text was as thin as a sesame seed, she could still understand some of the lessons if she read it carefully.

"For example, it says: March 15, hunt down Simon's technical department leader Mott, and obtain the top-secret technology of Helios No. 5 battery."

"In addition, on May 18, I infiltrated Warehouse 103 and obtained 5 basic planting warehouses. During this time, I killed 36 people."

"On May 20, snipe and kill LG senior researcher Lily to obtain her ID and steal the mysterious man's technology."

"..."

This kind of paper contains a lot of similar content, showing a lot of task information and completion plans, which is astonishing.

“This stuff is a complete mess.” Lu Wuyai’s head throbbed with pain after hearing this.

In fact, regardless of who these people were before, they are now just a group of survivors of the plane crash, struggling to survive on the cruise ship and paying the price for the murders committed in the past.

However, it is worth mentioning that the last item on this piece of paper was dated a few days before the stock market crash.

"Listen to the last part," Gu Yuxin said. "On April 20th, I infiltrated Daotong Company and obtained 3 advanced cultivation chambers and 5 intermediate cultivation chambers."

"Tell me, are these so-called breeding warehouses on that plane?"

“Maybe not,” Gu Yuxin said. “No, that’s impossible.”

Lu Wuyai: "I don't know what this breeding warehouse is used for."

"Judging from the name, it should be a good thing."

Everyone was whispering among themselves, and before they knew it, it was getting dark again. Lu Wuyai got up and walked towards the cockpit, while the women began preparing dinner.

The dim, yellow light pierced through the clouds and shone on the ice and snow.

Lu Wuyai let out a long sigh, feeling as if a heavy stone was pressing on his heart. He hadn't seen Su Xi or the others for months. He truly didn't know how the other three women were doing.

"Hopefully the ice crystals will pass quickly."

An hour later, Lu Wuyai was called to dinner, and the warm little house was filled with satisfaction and anticipation.

As night truly fell, the outside temperature began to drop rapidly. Lu Wuyai and the others could no longer see anything at night, but keeping watch was still necessary.

When the lights went out, everything became completely dark. This feeling was initially very uncomfortable for them. After all, they had been using night vision for a long time.

Lu Wuyai lay in the aisle, with the driver's cab in front and the driver's cab behind.

As night deepened, a warm body climbed into Lu Wuyai's bed, and the two could feel each other's breath.

Gu Yuxin hugged Lu Wuyai, feeling shy and her heart was beating very fast.

Lu Wuyai held Ouyang Qing tightly, listening to the steady breathing in the cabin; it was clear that he had been asleep for a long time.

"Won't they hear us?" came the rustling sound of clothes being taken off.

"It's fine."

"Wa ...

That night, amidst the howling winds outside, the long-lost meows of a cat echoed in the cockpit. Lu Wuyai, cruising across Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, remained unable to calm down for a long time.

The next day, Gu Yuxin awkwardly emerged from her sleeping bag, her face flushed, and bumped into Song Xiaoyou.

As for Lu Wuyai, after what happened last night, his suppressed mood of the past few days has been greatly relieved, and he has become much more relaxed.

The ice crystal storm fluctuated again that day. By noon, the wind had noticeably weakened, and even the overcast sky had brightened up.

However, the number of ice crystals floating in the air still appears to be quite large.

Lu Wuyai wanted to go out and check on the assassins in the cargo hold.

Before leaving the cockpit, he went inside to retrieve some bullets and grenades, which he had previously obtained from Shishan.

"There aren't many of these thermal weapons left," Lu Wuyai thought to himself.

His constant worry was that the container contained firearms they hadn't discovered, which the assassins had just found.

"Either kill those assassins, or find the armory first," Lu Wuyai thought anxiously.

Soon, Lu Wuyai left the cockpit and lingered alone in the cabin near the bow of the ship.

The wind wasn't strong, but ice crystals were still blowing everywhere.

Lu Wuyai put on a mask to prevent the large amount of ice crystals from damaging his body.

Although this cruise ship is large, its container storage method is outdated. Six stories is its maximum height; the lower decks are empty, with no containers stored there.

Even so, there were still nearly 10,000 boxes on the cruise ship.

Soon, Lu Wuyai arrived at the bow of the ship. This time, he would begin his search for potential armories from this spot.

Of course, Lu Wuyai was also searching for the box the murderer had opened. As of yesterday, nothing had been found.

This time when he came out, Lu Wuyai took two particularly sturdy hooks that could be fixed to the holes in the bottom of the container, and then he hung himself up to look at the information on the stickers near the container.

Soon, Lu Wuyai tried it out near the deck and found it to be quite good, at least much more convenient than a ladder.

And so, before dusk, Lu Wuyai walked incessantly along the containers at the bow of the ship, encountering several assassins along the way. There was no immediate conflict between the two sides.

However, Lu Wuyai really wanted to kill the other side, but unfortunately, he didn't have many bullets. Some had to be reserved to open the container. The others would only be fired if he was certain he could kill the other side.

This time, the other person walked very slowly. Even after seeing Lu Wuyai, he did not choose to leave immediately, which made him somewhat uneasy.

That evening, Lu Wuyai hid the book containing the container information in his pocket and prepared to leave.

Footsteps echoed from the dark gaps in the container. Lu Wuyai paused, then realized the sound was still there.

Da da da.

Lu Wuyai walked over and found someone looking for something.

After glancing at the sky, Lu Wuyai didn't rush back. He took out two pieces of leather from his backpack and wrapped his boots so that they wouldn't make a noticeable noise when he walked.

Lu Wuyai wrapped his shoes up, peeked out, and found that the person was gone, but the path the other person had taken was on the opposite side.

Lu Wuyai walked over and, sure enough, he could still hear the sound of shoes walking on the road.

But Lu Wuyai soon realized that the person turned around and left, almost bumping into him.

Lu Wuyai, hiding in the shadows, watched the other person leave, but before leaving, the person looked at the same container several times, as if trying to memorize it.

Lu Wuyai was stunned. Only five minutes after the other party left, he emerged from the shadows.

The other person had disappeared. Lu Wuyai walked in the direction they had left, glancing back at the box.

There was a sticker on the box with information on it, but Lu Wuyai couldn't tell which container the other person was looking at, so he simply looked at all the nearby containers.

Finally, Lu Wuyai hurriedly returned to the cabin under the last glimmer of light before nightfall.

There was no time to eat, so Lu Wuyai told Song Xiaoyou to hurry up and prepare so they could go out that night.

"What's wrong?" Song Xiaoyou asked, her head covered, not understanding what Lu Wuyai meant.

"I found the murder weapon."

"But we've already found those people, so we need to hurry and move the weapons." Lu Wuyai gasped, urging Song Xiaoyou to hurry. Transporting a box of firearms in one night would be very difficult.

"Then let's go too." Gu Yuxin and Gu Yuxin stood up and, without waiting for Lu Wuyai to say anything, went to prepare warm clothes and luggage bags.

As for the other women, they remained in the cabin to prepare for the distribution of supplies and security that night.

Since dinner was temporarily unavailable, everyone took immediate action.

Song Xiaoyou led the way, while Lu Wuyai and two other women walked forward in the darkness, tying ropes together and moving through the boxes.
