Chapter 963 Why did the ship stop?
The main reason is that it takes too long to take out and it is difficult to do.
It's eye-catching, one stick is more than ten meters long, Liao Jiuban can move it, no problem.
It was a bit difficult to hide from the guards and move out without being discovered.
Therefore, Jiang Lianzhu must come along.
Because Jiang Lianzhu has an arsenal where she can store the weapons, and then take them out quietly and put them into the sea.
Large items in her arsenal can only be stored for a short period of time, no more than a day. If they are stored for more than a day, they will be automatically recycled.
Otherwise, this batch of timber would not have to go through the Hope's cargo hold and could be brought directly into the armory, which would save a lot of trouble.
Unfortunately, her arsenal isn't omnipotent.
Only things that can be kept in her personal locker can last long, and her personal locker is not big, so it can only store small things.
It's a flaw in the ointment.
The two entered the warehouse and found where the wood was stored.
There were a lot of other items in the warehouse, and the wood was placed at the innermost part so that it would be more convenient for them to take.
"Wife, how many do you want?"
Jiang Lianzhu thought about it and realized that it would take two people to carry such a big and thick piece of wood, and they could just stop at one piece to rest.
"We release four or five at a time. If the wind direction is disturbed, they may drift to other places. These two will stop at random and go into the deep sea. We release them twice a day."
This is a large pile, enough to last at least one or two months.
If it really didn't work, Jiang Lianzhu asked them to catch up with the big ship and look for them.
She can actually also put lifeboats on the sea every day.
However, this is too big a target.
After all, lifeboats are not something that can be found here, and they will be salvaged for research, attracting attention.
If you place wood, it is normal to see these things floating on the sea.
"OK."
The two men took the wood and put the pile back into place. Suddenly, their ears moved.
There was the sound of water splashing under the boat.
They both held their breath.
Release your consciousness and observe.
It turned out that it was the ugly slave who went into the water!
The ugly slave made a lot of noise when she went into the water. Her body was huge, and the chains on her body stirred up the water, making a loud splash. In just a moment, she dived into the water and disappeared.
The huge body is like the most agile fish swimming in the water, which always looks weird.
It feels like playing in the water rather than swimming.
If she wasn't careful, she would disappear from sight.
"She's gone, daughter-in-law."
Liao Jiu and his wife returned the same way and quietly left the warehouse.
Avoiding the patrol route, we came to the stern of the ship.
Liao Jiu gave the signal and Jiang Lianzhu threw wood into the water.
She used her mind to place wood from the armory and could adjust the distance between the items at will.
So she placed the wood as far away from the Hope as possible.
In this way, if it is not lowered directly from the Hope to the sea surface, it will not be discovered.
The two men worked like thieves and finally successfully put the wood into the sea.
Just after the show, I heard the sound of water splashing again.
The two of them thought it was the ugly slave who had returned.
This ugly slave just went into the water not long ago. Normally, it shouldn't be so fast. It takes about an hour every time.
When the two of them took a look, they found that it was indeed not the ugly slave!
It was the strange man who looked like a fish monster. He seemed very excited. He emerged from the water, holding the big leather bag around his waist, and ran straight to the third floor and walked towards Captain Nix's room.
Knicks spends most of his time in the control room, watching the flight route. In the late night, he basically rests in the room.
Jiang Lianzhu and Liao Jiu communicated in secret.
"He seems to have discovered something underwater."
"That should be the case. Otherwise, we wouldn't bother the Knicks right now. They usually report during the day."
They have discovered a pattern: these talented people basically show off their skills every night.
It has become the norm.
Jiang Lianzhu said, "Go back quickly. If something really happens, the Knicks will probably summon you."
"Okay. Wife, you go back and rest too. I'll let you know if anything happens."
They had completed what they wanted to do and the two of them went their separate ways.
Jiang Lianzhu went to the poor people's warehouse. Her daughter was still sleeping soundly. She acted as if nothing had happened, went to bed, hugged her warm baby, and went to sleep.
She hadn't slept for long when she felt the Hope stop.
This has never happened before.
Most of them were still asleep, and a few light sleepers sat up from their beds, looking at each other in bewilderment.
"Why did the boat stop?"
"Why is the ship stopped in the middle of the night? Is the Hope broken down?"
"Did we encounter a storm?"
There were also those who were carefree and said, "Forget it, don't think about it. If it stops, it stops. There must be a reason. Worrying will not help. We have to wait for the captain's instructions. Go back to sleep and see what happens tomorrow morning."
Everyone felt that this made sense. Their guesses were useless anyway, and they didn't even have the qualifications to inquire.
Better to sleep peacefully.
Such a luxurious ship would definitely not break down, nor would it be unable to cope with the storm. We had to know what to do.
Jiang Lianzhu also turned over and continued to sleep.
***
As for Liao Jiu, he had just returned to the room.
I felt the boat stop.
There were other guards who went out with him to check. The person in charge asked them to get up because they had a temporary task.
We arrived at the noisiest place, the large restaurant on the first floor.
At this time, the distinguished guests who were not asleep gathered here and asked about the situation.
The hall was in an uproar.
"What's going on? Why did the Hope stop for no reason? Without even a word of warning?"
"The wind is blowing in the right direction and we're traveling at our fastest speed, so why did we stop?"
"I was wondering how my seasickness got better. It turns out the ship stopped. What happened? Is there something wrong with the ship? Where is the captain?"
…
The ship's first mate stood at the front and explained loudly, "Everyone, don't panic! The captain has ordered the Hope to stop temporarily and may have to change course. Don't worry, no matter what, we will definitely get you all to your destination in the end..."
"What? Change the route? Change the route suddenly? Who's responsible if our trip is delayed?"
"Yes, we do not agree to change the route! Unless it is due to force majeure..."
…
The first mate continued, "Look, we've detected a possible storm ahead, so we need to take a detour. Don't get excited, everyone. Our captain is Nix. He's a professional captain and has never made a mistake. Trust him! He'll definitely lead us along the safest route and bring everyone to our destination safely!"
After these words were spoken, the excited crowd below gradually calmed down.
Then everyone started to panic again.
"Storm? What level of storm?"
"Don't panic. A ship as large as the Hope can weather even a minor storm..."
"I've heard of Captain Nix's reputation. If the storm required Nix to take a detour, it must be quite large. It's safer to take a detour."
