After the cruise ship came to a stop, Su Qingci directed Xu Dasheng and Qianfu to lower the small boats from the ship.
"You guys go ahead, I have other things to do."
After Su Qingci said that, Xu Dasheng and the other two didn't dare to ask any more questions.
"Sigui, you can keep this small boat for now. Leave me your address, and I'll come find you to pick it up later!"
Si Gui was deeply moved. "Sister Su, thank you for trusting me so much. I will definitely protect this little boat!"
“Our village is called Haiyun Bay. It’s easy to find. Go straight for five nautical miles from here and you’ll reach the pier. Once you get on the pier, head east and cross a mountain to reach Yunhai Bay.”
"Once you enter the village, head north. My house is at the northernmost part of the village. Or you can ask someone for directions. Just say you're looking for Sigui's house. The villagers are very hospitable and will give you directions."
Su Qingci nodded with a smile, "Don't worry!"
After watching the three leave, Su Qingci slipped into the farm.
The tall guy and the others died. According to Si Gui and the others, apart from the sailors, the remaining henchmen on that ship were not good people either.
Su Qingci looked at the row of corpses laid out in the yard. There were good people and bad people among them. She didn't have the ability to dig a hole to bury them outside, and she felt uncomfortable burying them on the farm. Just dumping the bodies directly seemed a bit unethical.
If the body is returned to the family, all sorts of messy things might come up later.
A reasonable family might even say thank you, but an unreasonable one might try to force you to pay compensation.
After thinking it over, Su Qingci decided to secretly dump the body on the shore after arriving at the dock.
If someone sees it, they will definitely call the police, and then the police will notify the family to come and identify the body. Once the family takes it home, she can say that she has sent "them" all home.
He didn't show up at all, and he couldn't be implicated in anything.
After dark, Su Qingci launched the small boat and took the cruise ship into her farm.
At this time, there were still many fishing boats returning from fishing trips on the sea. Su Qingci rowed her boat and followed behind the other fishing boats, slowly moving towards the island.
The five-nautical-mile distance was driving Su Qingci to the brink of collapse. Her arms and hands ached, and the sky had completely darkened. Although there were lights in the distance, the howling sea wind and strange noises were enough to make her heart race.
By the time we docked, it was already completely dark. The dock was packed with fishing boats, and there was hardly anyone in sight. However, some fishing boats where people lived were illuminated by flickering candlelight.
Taking advantage of the darkness and the fact that no one was paying attention, Su Qingci slipped ashore and, in a flash, took the small boat into the farm.
She was exhausted. If it weren't for her lack of skill and fear of causing unnecessary trouble, she would have launched the cruise ship immediately.
No wonder fishing boats without engines and motors cannot sail far. Not to mention the risk resistance of fishing boats, even the rowing can kill people!
Exhausted, Su Qingci had no strength left to get up and cook for herself. Fortunately, she had prepared a considerable amount of food in advance, packed it in disposable boxes, and stored it in the villa to keep it fresh.
I picked out a plate of stir-fried green beans with pork, a plate of stir-fried chicken with chili peppers, and a box of rice from the box and started eating.
The food was still piping hot, just like when it was freshly cooked. When you're hungry, anything tastes good, especially when the food is decent.
After wolfing down the food, the three boxes were empty. After lying down for a while and taking a quick shower, Su Qingci turned on the alarm and fell asleep like a log.
The alarm clock rang just before 3 a.m.
Su Qingci groggily got up, dumped the dozen or so well-preserved corpses from the farm onto the dock, then found a secluded spot and went back to sleep.
When Su Qingci woke up, the outside world was in an uproar, with crowds of people packed tightly together on the dock.
Some were crying, some were shouting, some were yelling to maintain order, some were whispering amongst themselves in fear, and some were even squatting on the beach examining corpses...
The usually bustling pier was now even more noisy, with many police officers setting up cordon lines, creating a very tense atmosphere.
What happened today was not only a tragic maritime disaster, but also a bizarre event that science could not explain, and it was later registered in the top-secret archives of unsolved mysteries of the island.
Apart from the deceased's relatives who rushed to the scene, everyone, from onlookers to government officials handling the case, had a solemn expression.
Some elderly people even whispered to their sons, "What are you still looking at here for? You're so young. Hurry up and go home and put some rice in your pocket so you don't get involved with anything unclean."
"Remember to wait at the door for a while and stomp your feet before going in. There are kids at home! Really."
Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, Su Qingci slipped out of the farm. After she disposed of the body yesterday, she deliberately walked into this pile of rocks before entering the farm.
Seeing the dense crowd gathered at the dock, Su Qingci squeezed her head into the crowd.
Inside the police cordon, a man wearing a white coat and carrying a toolbox glanced at the corpse on the beach, frowned, and muttered under his breath, "Strange, really strange."
A man standing nearby, who appeared to be in a leadership position, listened to the mutterings and his mood grew even heavier. "Mr. Xu?"
He was also terrified. Not only were the corpses lined up neatly in rows, but there were no footprints or any other clues nearby.
The crucial point is that the Ghana has been at sea for almost two months, and now the bodies of the crew members and sailors have inexplicably appeared on the dock.
Judging from the condition of the body, the time of death should not have been long, but shouldn't the Ghana be in the deep sea at this time?
These rows of corpses...it's really eerie...
The crowd watching nearby was also buzzing with discussion.
"It seems he died unwillingly, with something on his mind, and didn't want to leave!"
"I heard it was the crew and sailors from the Ghana. That ship is an ocean-going fishing vessel. We fishermen here, and the farthest we go out to sea is two days' journey. I've never heard of anyone seeing the Ghana on the sea."
"It proves they really went to the deep sea, but now these people are dying in rows on the shore. It's a creepy story."
"Oh dear, stop talking, ugh~ I'm getting goosebumps."
"According to you, even the dead know to go home in groups?"
"Who knows? I bet he's thinking about his family."
"Maybe they need to find a stand-in. Oh my god, I need to hurry back and talk to my husband. Let's not go out to sea for a while. It's kind of scary."
Upon hearing this, Su Qingci felt a pang of anxiety. Oh no, she had probably done something wrong with good intentions.
Si Gui and the other two just got back yesterday!
