In the cabin, the captain was holding a novel and reading it with relish.

At this time, he was nearly sixty years old, and as a captain who had spent most of his life adrift at sea, his greatest hobby was reading. After all, from Marseille to New York, not only need to cross Gibraltar, but also need to cross the vast Atlantic, if you don't have a hobby to kill time during a long voyage, and reading novels is one of his favorite hobbies...

This is also the reason why when Elinor came to the door and asked him to lend him a typewriter, he immediately agreed without saying a word.

After reading the book to the light for half an hour, the captain closed the novel.

"Alright, it's time to go on patrol..."

As he spoke, he put on his hat and opened the hatch to take a look at the cockpit.

However, he had barely walked out of the cabin when he saw his first mate running over in a panic.

The captain of his first mate is still relatively familiar with him, and has experienced a lot of things, and even survived a shipwreck that was sunk by a hurricane. Therefore, ordinary things don't make him so flustered at all, in other words, the only things that can make him so flustered are big things...

Thinking of this, a hint of foreboding rose in the captain's heart.

"What's wrong..."

"Captain, we're in trouble..."

Taking a breath, the first mate replied.

"I just got the news that there is a hurricane right ahead of us..."

"Hurricane," the captain's face sank, and it was one of the most reluctant things to be encountered at sea. Is there a way to avoid it..."

"I'm afraid not..."

The first mate said with a wry smile.

In his early years, he was hit by a hurricane, and the worst result was that the ship he was on sank, and even he was swept into the sea. Fortunately, his life was great, and he grabbed a lifeboat at the last moment, otherwise I am afraid that someone else would have to stand here now.

However, in the end, he was able to become the first mate, which has something to do with this experience. After all, no matter what kind of captain you are, you will want your assistant to be an experienced person.

"Since you can't avoid it, please God bless it..."

Hearing the first mate say this, the captain didn't say much, perhaps he had expected this to be the case when he saw the first mate's expression.

"Let's go, no matter what, we must keep the passengers of this ship!"

So saying, the captain straightened his clothes and walked out first, followed by the first mate.

After returning to the cabin, Yan Shao was naturally complained by Elanon.

Fortunately, Eleno felt that Yan Shao had acquiesced in slipping out, so he didn't dwell too much on this matter. In fact, if it weren't for Elaine's acquiescence, I'm afraid Yan Shao wouldn't have been able to slip out of the cabin. Even if he really slipped out of the city, it would only be a matter of minutes to get him back.

Yan Shao himself knew this in his heart, so after smirking a little, he stepped forward to hug Elano and offered a lot of sweet words that didn't require money.

"By the way, you can teach me to play chess again..."After amusing Elaino, Yan Shao moved a chair over. I was just slaughtered one-sidedly on deck, and I'm going to have to get it back before I get to New York..."

"You..." smiled helplessly, looked at the time, and saw that it was still early to rest, so he took out the chessboard.

Before the crossing, Yan Shao could only play chess, and Go was because there was a sister who learned to play Go, but at most it was the degree of abuse of children, and sometimes even the abuse of children could not be...

As for chess, it's really ignorant, and when it's backgammon or something, you'll learn some...

In this era, there was neither television nor computers, and people's entertainment was only playing chess and cards, etc., and when there was no way, Yan Shao could only learn how to play chess from Elaine—————— after all, he could not find someone in Marseille to play chess or Go with him.

But he's also trying to develop opponents for himself as much as possible, such as Elanor, Elano and Elano or something...

In a way, the two can be regarded as learning from each other.

And Elano also developed a lot of interest in these Chinese cultures because of Yan Shao's relationship, and even learned Chinese from him before leaving Marseille. After all, Eleno also knows very well that she will probably spend the rest of her life in China, and if she even speaks Chinese, she will not be able to speak it anyway.

Luckily, she was a language genius, so she learned very quickly.

But what made Yan Shao most helpless was that she learned chess and Go very quickly.

Forget about Go, anyway, that Yan Shao was originally at the level of a child.

But it didn't take long for even chess to be her opponent, which couldn't help but blow Yan Shao. Fortunately, every time Elaline will save him some face, and it won't be too obvious, otherwise Yan Shao will really find a rope to hang.

————————————————————

For chess, Yan Shao has only been learning for a few months, and his level is very poor, and Elaline is naturally very easy to teach. And once from the mouth of Tarris, Yan Shao learned that in a college chess competition, Elaline also won the championship of the women's division.

As for what is just the championship of the women's category...

"It seems that those men are afraid of losing and losing face..."

After depositing the new manuscript, Tharis replied lightly.

However, with such a powerful teacher who is devoted to teaching, Yan Shao's level is still so poor, which shows how stupid Yan Shao is...

Under the bright light, looking at Yan Shao, who was thinking hard about the chessboard, a smile appeared in Elano's eyes.

"Let's release the water next, lest he lose too ugly and become angry after a while..."

With that in mind, Elaline turned her head to the window.

She had been a little concerned since just now, because not long ago there was a sudden wind and waves outside, and it seemed to be getting bigger and bigger...

"There won't be any problems..."

With a glass of juice in hand, Elaline walked to the window and looked out.

At this time, the cruise ship shook suddenly, because of the high heels on her feet, Elaline almost slipped, but fortunately, Yan Shao on the side shifted her attention because of her getting up, and finally held Elano when she was about to fall.

However, although Elinor himself did not slip, all the juice in the cup was spilled, and the chess pieces on the chessboard were scattered all over the ground.

Seeing the chess pieces scattered on the ground, Yan Shao, who had a headache because he was forced into a dead end, thought that he was unconsciously relieved, but he didn't notice that Elaline in his arms had already seen all this in his eyes.

The corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and Elano regained his footing in Yan Shao's arms.

If it weren't for the high heels on her feet, and the incident happened suddenly, she wouldn't have been like this with her skills, but now that she is prepared, she naturally doesn't need to worry about anything.

But...

"Something seems to be wrong..."

Walking to the window, Elaline frowned as he looked at the busy sailors.

"yes..."

Standing behind Elanon, Yan Shao also nodded.

Just outside the window, on the deck, countless sailors are busy, while the wind and waves outside are getting stronger and stronger...
