Chapter 8: Courage to go out
The second daughter looked at me in astonishment with an incredulous expression.
Liu Yue stopped crying and said to me, "Are you crazy?"
"I'm not crazy, if I'm not mistaken, the monsters are all gone. I said.
"Then what if you don't leave?" Ling Han said.
"Either starve to death in the room or go out to see what is going on, and if my guess is correct, these monsters will only be active at night. I said.
Taking advantage of the second daughter's hesitation, I directly opened the door and walked out, standing on the empty deck, looking at the remaining supplies on the shore.
I mustered up the courage to get out of the boat, and by this time it was dawn, and I ran towards the shore with the mentality of seeing death as if I were at home.
And as I had deduced, there was no sign of a monster at all, and I hurried over to the venison, which had not yet spoiled.
I grabbed the knife stuck in the ground and quickly cut it, picked up a backpack full of water bottles and venison, and ran back quickly.
Seeing the two lonely figures on the deck, I couldn't help but feel a warm heart, although the second daughter was afraid, she still came out.
"Get back to your room. I walked over to the two of them and said.
The second daughter followed me back to the room, I took out the meat in the bag, and the three of them ate it in a big gulp, and the two of them didn't care about the image of a lady, at this time, it was important to fill their stomachs.
"Don't eat too much, I haven't consumed protein for the past few days, and I can't stand eating too much at once. I said to the two of them.
The second daughter also realized her gaffe, and shyly put down the meat that was sent to her mouth, and her face flushed with shyness.
"You slice the meat, find a place to dry it, and it will spoil very quickly. I said to the two of them.
"What are you going to do?" both asked.
"I can't hide it from you, I'm going to go out again. I said.
"That's enough for us to eat for many days, don't venture out again. Liu Yue said.
Looking at Liu Yue's sincere eyes, I just wanted to be moved, and Ling Han said, "I'll accompany you." ”
The first time I felt the care of a woman, I almost burst into tears, but reason told me that everyone is here to survive.
"It's more convenient for me to go alone, and if there is any danger I can run faster than you, you take care of the venison, and I'll be back soon." I stood up and said.
"Be careful, we'll wait for you to come back. They both stood up at the same time and said.
This situation and this scene are like a virtuous wife in the family, waiting for her husband to return triumphantly.
After saying this, the two also felt that it was inappropriate, glanced at each other, and lowered their heads with a red face.
"Okay, don't worry, you don't let anyone in until I come back. I said.
Under the hot gaze of the second daughter, I slowly pushed open the door and walked out, if I hadn't seen the monster, this hot look alone would be enough for me to go to the soup.
First of all, of course, I had to go and see what had happened last night, for I was now alone in the cabin, and the doors of all the houses in the aisle were closed, and the people were still in shock.
I followed the blood on the ground and walked deeper into the cabin, and soon saw a broken door.
The wooden door was shattered, and the room was covered in blood and everything scattered all over the floor.
I had the courage to search the room, but I couldn't find food or water, and the strong smell of blood made me shudder, so I didn't dare to stay longer, and quickly retreated.
I went on to search a few more rooms with broken doors, and they were all in similar condition to the previous ones.
Looking at the marks left by the monster's claws on the door, I couldn't help but shudder, if this claw caught me, I didn't dare to think about it, I couldn't help but speed up my pace.
I looked at several rooms in succession, and the situation was similar, but not all the rooms with wooden doors were breached, which made me a little confused.
I calmed down and recalled the rooms I had seen before, and judging from the items in the room, they should all be women, except for the smell of blood, it seems...
That's right, perfume.
These monsters don't have eyes, so the sense of smell must be unusually developed, it must be so, it smells of perfume.
To make sure of this, I looked at several rooms in quick succession and got a positive answer.
I was about to turn away when something in the room caught my eye, a video camera.
I stepped forward, turned on the power, and filled the grid.
"Great. I said in a lost voice.
With the camera, I hurriedly ran back to the house and told my second daughter what I saw and what I speculated.
Which woman doesn't wear perfume, the second daughter shuddered when she heard my reasoning.
"Good thing our stuff was stolen. Liu Yue said.
"Perfume is among them?" I asked.
"Well, I bought that bottle of perfume for thousands of dollars. Ling Han said.
After the second daughter finished speaking, I hooked my head and stepped forward and sniffed a few times.
"What are you doing? Liu Yue shrank and said.
I ignored it and sniffed at Ling Han a few more times.
Ling Han didn't dodge, it seemed that she understood my intentions.
"How is it?, does the perfume smell still strong?" Ling Han asked nervously.
"It's okay, it's not too heavy, but this monster's nose is really powerful, I said why it was hanging around our door yesterday. I said.
"What should we do? The monster will definitely come back tonight, why don't we go wash it?" Liu Yue said.
"It's okay, I didn't notice it last night, and I can't smell it today. I said.
"Then what are your plans next?" Ling Han said.
"I'm going to go out one more time. I said.
"Are you really crazy? Do you want to go out? Everyone is hiding and afraid to go out, but you are better and run out again and again. Liu Yue said.
"If we don't think of a way to deal with those monsters, all of us will end up the same. I said solemnly.
The two of them were about to say something, but I raised my hand to interrupt.
"Is the venison done?" I asked.
"It's all taken care of. The two said.
"Where?" I asked.
"It's a small place, I can't find a suitable place, and I hang it in the bathroom. Ling Han said.
"Okay, then I'll go out and have a look, the old rule, don't open the door if anyone comes when I don't come back. I said.
This time, I got up and left directly after I finished speaking, and I didn't dare to look directly into the eyes of the second daughter again.
But this time I didn't go back to the cabin, there was no value in exploring it.
I got off the boat directly, came to the shore and rummaged again, the first time I came in a hurry, I only took the venison and water, I didn't dare to check it seriously.
Now that I'm pretty sure that the monsters don't come out until after dark, I'm naturally emboldened.
This rummaging was really rewarding, and I found everything I was looking for in these people's bags.
Sleeping bag tents, ropes, daggers, even hooks and lines, and most importantly allowed me to find an ignition stick.
I also found a lot of small snacks, chocolates and other things, and all the miscellaneous things were packed in two big bags.
Looking at the rest of the things on the ground, I hesitated for a moment or chose to give up, first of all, I can't bring so much, not to mention, even if I really leave the ship one day, the three of us can't carry more than our burden.
I put aside the two large bags of things I had put aside and stood under the cruise ship to observe them carefully.
I'm going to check the damage of the ship, most of the lower part of the hull is soaked in water, but fortunately, the water is crystal clear, and now the wind and waves are not strong, I quickly took a look at the damage to the hull.
From the deck I could see the beach to the east, but it was too far away for me to rush there, and the boat was now completely stuck on the reef on the shore and could not move at all.
And I could see that the hull was already holed, and combined with the distribution of shellfish on the cliff wall, I was sure that if the tide was high, the cruise ship would definitely capsize.
It's a bit unrealistic for us to want to hide inside, and the main question now is when the tide will return and how long we can stay on the cruise.
With a bunch of questions, I carried two large bags of things back to the room, but after a few simple words of explanation, I went out with the camera.
I'm looking for it on the deck, and yes, I'm going to take a picture of these monsters with my camera.
Finally got me to find a suitable spot, set up the camera, and now just wait for me to turn it on before dark.
The people in the cabin must have heard my movements, and one after another people came out of the room and saw me alone on the deck, and everyone was a little stunned and walked towards me.
