Chapter 424 Storm. Names in the Diary
After introducing himself, Taishan began to introduce the situation of the cruise ship, including when it would set sail and how many people were on board. It felt like he was trying to cover up his mistake.
Just as he was talking nonstop and immersed in the story of the world, someone from behind interrupted him.
"Do you have any food? Bring it out to us quickly."
The speaker was a white-skinned, blue-eyed man who looked to be less than 30 years old, with low eyebrows and deep-set eyes that were unique to Europeans and Americans. However, his voice was very stiff, even impatient.
"Xiu, don't be so rude. They are guests from China. China is the most hospitable country and a country of etiquette."
"I don't care about etiquette. I'm starving." Blue Eyes was trembling all over and a little excited.
"Sun, take Xiu to the kitchen to eat something first, and don't disturb the guests." Taishan's tone was still gentle, but his clenched fists revealed his anger.
"What guests? They are just..." Xio was about to say something when the person next to him covered his mouth. It should be the Sun that Taishan mentioned. Although there was impatience in his eyes, he still pulled the person away as Taishan instructed.
Taishan gave the remaining people a look that indicated they should leave. They shifted their gaze away from Chu An and the others and walked back into the cabin reluctantly.
All of this did not escape the eyes of the three people, especially Chu An, whose acting skills were even worse than those of the traffic stars.
Tai Shan turned around and became polite and humble again, "Don't listen to his nonsense. He has been at sea for too long. His temper is bad and his mental state is a bit problematic. He needs to see a psychiatrist when he returns to land."
"We have no food." Chu An said bluntly, "We thought we could have a meal here and follow you back to land."
Tarzan's eyes were obviously disappointed. "It's okay. I still have some cookies to share with you. But can you tell me which direction you came from?"
Chu An made up two sentences at random. Taishan frowned and didn't say whether he believed it or not.
"Did you really come here in a speedboat?"
Chu An nodded, "Yes, we arrived here not long after we went out to sea."
She guessed that the other party didn't tell the truth, and it was equivalent to everyone deceiving each other. However, the situation of the cruise ship introduced should be true. This ship is a round-the-world cruise ship from Kangaroo Country, which has been stranded at sea for more than a year.
Everyone knew whether most people died because of food exhaustion or because they were killed.
As it was getting dark again, Taishan invited them to go into the cabin to rest and took them to dinner.
Chu An had no reason to refuse. The three followed him into the cabin. The stench inside became stronger. When they walked into the reception hall on the first floor, dark red, dry bloodstains could be seen everywhere. However, there were obvious signs of cleaning, and the bloodstains at the scene were not continuous.
Several people followed him inside and could vaguely hear the sound of metal knocking. They were heading in the direction of the sound, and as they got closer, they could hear a short call from the knocking sound.
“Help…Help…Help.”
Gu Ye was the first to hear it. His hearing had always been quite sharp, as if he was in the cabin behind the reception bar.
He reached out and tugged at the corner of Chu An's clothes, and mouthed, "Someone is calling for help."
Chu An shook his hand back to show that he understood what was going on.
The crowd walked through the reception hall on the first floor and went down the stairs to the underground restaurant, which was equivalent to a food court. Various restaurants and coffee shops were luxuriously decorated, and the facilities below were relatively well preserved.
The three followed Taishan and turned two corridors to the staff cafeteria.
This place... is a mess, with obvious signs of fighting. It seems to be where they often hang out.
Taishan still didn't stop and ran towards the kitchen. The sounds of various kitchen utensils colliding could be heard from inside. It was probably that his companion had entered the kitchen first.
If you just want to get food, there's no need for so many people to go in together.
"Hey, Brother Taishan, is the captain of your ship called Farragut?" Lao Chu asked in pure English.
Taishan was visibly startled, then smiled and said, "Yes, do you know him?"
"I've seen it on TV." Old Chu said with a smile.
"Our captain is very famous and often accepts various interviews."
"The captain I'm talking about is the name in the cartoon." Lao Chu said leisurely.
Taishan's steps suddenly stopped, and when he turned back, he had already torn off his disguise, with a fierce look in his eyes, "Why are you so disobedient? Isn't it better to just follow me?"
He drew the dagger from his waist and shouted, calling out everyone.
They were the same few people as before, some holding machetes, some holding boning knives, and some holding frying pans, looking like they were about to cook.
"I've already told you, don't talk so much to them, just kill them as soon as they come." The blue-eyed man licked his dry lips and didn't regard Chu An and the others as human beings at all.
Taishan was still very regretful, "I originally wanted to kill one a day, and our appetites are not very big. Especially this beautiful lady, I really can't bear to let her go."
Gu Ye pulled out the Black Stone Dagger. He didn't take eight people seriously, and they were as thin as bamboo poles. But this is someone else's territory, so he still had to be careful.
"Stop talking so much nonsense. Who are you?" Lao Chu continued to ask.
“You don’t need to know so much about food.” Blue Eyes sneered.
"It's still unclear who is whose food." Old Chu took a step back. Ever since he knew his daughter's ability, he could still stand straight when facing ordinary people with limited fighting power.
Tai Shan said contemptuously: "Don't blame us if you die. You have nothing and can only compensate with your body."
"Your name is not Taishan, your name is Charlie, right?" Chu An suddenly said, "You are a smuggler."
Tai Shan's eyes suddenly widened. "How did you know that?"
Chu An smiled but said nothing. Since their identities were confirmed, there was nothing to say. He instantly released eight stone nails that hovered above the heads of the eight people.
"Generally, large cruise ships can sail for 60-90 days and must dock once. Unless this ship is a ghost ship, it is impossible for it to continue sailing without supplies. The natural disaster has been going on for almost two years."
Charlie narrowed his eyes and called out to his men, "Go ahead, catch him alive."
Chu An no longer hesitated, and with a thought, she quickly resolved the battle. She also had to clean the boat, so she couldn't waste time.
The eight people fell to the ground almost as soon as they took a step, and they didn't even know how they died.
Gu Ye retracted the dagger, feeling a little uninterested as he hadn't exercised for a long time.
"Let's go back and check, there should be other people on the ship." Lao Chu walked back in a hurry. The voice just now came from behind the reception bar on the first floor.
Chu An and Gu Ye followed closely behind, and a minute later, they saw an incredible scene.
The imprisoned man had his hands and feet chained, was naked, and as thin as a skeleton.
Her hair was down to her shoulders, her cheeks were sunken, her eyes were bulging, and she looked nothing like a human. But there wasn't a single scratch on her body, she was just hungry.
Something was wrong. If Charlie lived by eating people, why was he kept around?
