75 - cabin

The three men stood in the boat, and Ollie ran to the rudder, holding the six-point handle, and let the breeze blow through its ears.

Wiel was supported by Boreth and stood on one side of the deck, looking out into the distance.

The seagulls were chirping, circling, dancing up and down in the direction they were looking.

The light, with the waves, tossed in the turquoise blue of the sea, is like the mood of the people on the boat, like the melancholy and haze drifting away with the wind.

The sea breeze was moist and slightly salty, and the gentle caressing of the sacred tree rippled beside the ship, like a happy elf, like the splendor of hope.

"So, how is this ship going?" Wer stood on deck, the sound of the sea lapping on the dock behind him.

Because of his unskillful boarding on the boat, Wiel's pants were wet with the sea.

"Whew~ The spear and sail of the ship have not been raised, of course there is no way to sail." Ollie wistfully stepped down from the rudder.

I also looked back and saw that the golden lines on the rudder and the beautiful carving on the handle made the whole rudder look magnificent and mysterious.

"You don't have to look like you, who else can sail in that position on the boat......" Will looked at the reluctant Ollie with some amusement. What do you think? Can you get this ship moving? ”

"Of course there is no problem, sir." Vere and Boreth turned their heads.

I saw a winch behind the ship, "Is that the winch that raised the ship's spear?" ”

"Yes, sir! We'll put that thing away, and we'll be able to get this ship out to sea. ”

"So what are you waiting for?"

"Wait for Vere......" suddenly reminded Boreth, "we have nothing with us, and we ......," she pointed to the door of the cabin.

"Shouldn't we go inside first?"

"yes, yes. Ollie's telescope is still on shore! Ollie was standing in front of the winch, about to take the noose.

"And, Will, your body is weak now. It's better to wait ......."

"Boris, whale, what about the whale?"

"Whew! Don't worry about that. Ollie came over to the two of them, looked them up and down, and then continued. The chief told me to keep an eye on the whale, and for the past few days, it has been in that place and has not moved once. ”

"Really?"

"Well, really, Ollie wanted to see the rainbow or something, but it never moved...... It's a shame. Ollie's eyes flashed with expectation.

"Weir, don't think too much, even if you don't have blubber as a light source, after you leave, I will be waiting for you here." "So, since the ship is already here, we don't need to be in such a hurry." ”

Weir groaned, "But I'm still not at ease, the whale ......"

"Well, if you have to do it as soon as possible, then wait until you can move around on your own." Seeing that Weir insisted, Boris said so.

"Hmm~ Okay, then let's take a look inside the cabin first...... To be honest, I'm curious. ”

Will was indeed curious, the ship came from his memory, but he couldn't remember it himself, what was it like inside a ship?

With their own hearts, the three of them came to the side of the cabin.

"Then, the second stop of the ship of Wiel, the cabin, is about to arrive." Weir was in front of the door, limpously playing the role of a tour guide.

"Alright, then let's take a tour of Monsieur Weel's ship." Bo Res, who was holding Will, also said with a pretentious smile.

Ollie didn't care about that, it couldn't wait.

Just as the two of them humbly gave way, Ollie turned the handle of the wooden door and pushed it open.

"Wow~! It's so handsome. ”

This is the captain's room.

Directly opposite the door, on the wooden wall, Wiel saw familiar writing.

The dragon flies and the phoenix dances, and those words are carved on the wall panels of the wooden wall.

At that moment, Weir's heart suddenly beat twice rapidly, and his leg strained so hard that he almost broke away from the hand that Boreth was holding him.

"What's wrong with you, Wiel?"

"I didn't ...... It's nothing? ”

"What is this place? What's that? ”

"Those are the words, and this is the captain's room...... The text of my hometown. ”

“…… It's beautiful. ”

Boris looked away from the font that attracted him the most, and looked around.

The room was airtight, with only windows to the left and right of the door that looked out onto the deck, though they were now blocked by two planks.

Ollie came to the plank and took it off to block the light, and some sunlight shone in through the window.

A large, curved wooden table on one side of the room was illuminated, and the table was silent.

The stool behind the large wooden table is also made of wood, and there are two golden trays on both sides, embedded in the wooden wall, and the wooden wall of that piece is also golden, which should be used to place the light source.

In the opposite direction is a large bed, or rather, a large plank. Diagonally opposite, in the direction of Wille's entry, there was an empty wooden cabinet.

On the other empty walls, there are several hooks at intervals, which are supposed to be used to place souvenirs or something.

The light reflects the light of the pale brown wood, and the golden accents reflect the simple and brilliant glow of the room.

"Looks like it needs to be set up here."

Ollie groped, looked, sniffed. Boris helped Ver to stand around the room, stopping at the wooden table.

Wiel knocked on the wooden table on the bridge, and there was a solid thud.

"It's sturdy."

"Looks like we need to put a few lighting crystals here." Boris looked at the metal tray on the wall, delicate and beautiful.

"Whew~ Let's go down to the cabin next." After watching two laps, Ollie proposed to the two.

"You two go down first, I want to sit here and rest first." Ver smiled at Ollie, and then said to Boreth, "I'm so tired, I'd like to sit here for a while, and you go first." Boreth, just help me here. ”

With that, Vere sat down on the bed.

Boris took out some cloth from the space and placed it on the wooden board, "Okay, you rest here first, let's go down and have a look." ”

Seeing that Weir was lying on the bed, Boreth put a pillow for him; Gently wipe the sweat off his head with his hands.

"Hmm~ I'll go in a moment."

"Let's rest first." Boreth walked over to Ollie's side. The sun shone on Will's body and reflected on his face.

"Ah~ so comfortable......" said Weir, who was too tired, and fell asleep.

Boris and Ollie looked at each other, smiled at the same time, and walked outside.

Ollie slammed the door of the room shut.

"Whew~ The chief always faints......"

"He's just too tired."

"I know, it's just that he always fights like this until he faints, which bothers Ollie......"

"So, after you go to sea, you have to take good care of Vere."

"Huh? ~Isn't Boreth going along? ”

“…… Well, I've got to keep it here. ”

The two of them came to a part of the deck, where there was a transparent partition window, which they lifted, and under the window, there was a wooden ladder going down.

The two of them cautiously came below.

"Whew~ What did Ollie see?" Ollie looked at everything in disbelief.

"This ...... This is the ship that Veel made? Bo Ruith looked at a small dining room that appeared in front of them under the cabin, and what he saw outside what he thought was a shelling hole was actually only the window of the dining room in front of them.

"The chief built it, it's an ornamental ship~"

Behind the sloping wooden staircase they descended was a separate place, and it was obvious that it was a kitchen-like place.

Directly opposite them, behind the six wooden tables, was a corridor of rooms on either side.

Looking around, the two of them made their way down the hallway. On both sides is a small room separated from each other, pushing open the door, although the space inside is not large, but the bed, table, chair, and a ventilation window hole are separated by wooden boards.

"This is where the crew lived, but it looks more like a hotel...... "Bo Ress thought curiously.

At the end of the corridor is a ladder further down, covered with wood.

Boris came out of the room, and was about to head there, when Ollie came out from underneath.

"There's the bottom of the boat down there, there's nothing to do." Ollie closed the lid again.

Boreth found the same way to the kitchen.

Similarly, behind the wooden wall at the end, there is a small warehouse, which appears to be used to store supplies.

"Looks like that's all there is to it here." Boris looked again and saw that nothing had been missed.

……

While the two of them were looking underneath to observe, Wiel, who was lying on the wooden bed, opened his eyes.

He sat up from the bed and quietly looked at the few Chinese characters in the light.

He could touch them with his hands.

A wave of sadness couldn't help but spread to the tip of Weir's heart and eyes.

He was tired, so tired that he couldn't move. He was safe, on this ship, there was no danger.

But his hand couldn't reach the wall where the writing was written.

It was like the distance between him and the original world.

'You can only look at it from afar, you can't touch it'.

However, unlike seeing the apparitions in the box of memories, Ver can now be clearly touched, perceived, and touched.

The familiar font was now in front of Will's eyes, torturing him.

Ver didn't want them to see what he was like, he didn't want them to feel sorry for what he thought.

Wille struggled to his feet, holding on to the wooden bed, his legs like lead-filled cotton, and after only one step, he fell to the ground.

He raised his hand upwards as best he could, the tips of his fingers barely touching the edge of the letter.

The smoothness of the carving brushed through Veel's fingertips, the raw edges of the wood, and the skin of Veel.

For the first time in this world, Ver felt so close to the original world.

He knelt on the ground with his eyes closed.

It turns out that the difference between the real and the unreal is the difference between the feeling I bring to myself.

Wille was immersed in the world of his own memories, and did not find that the three words of the captain's room slowly floated with a shallow layer of starlight.

Then, as the stars converged, it flowed between Veel's arms and flowed in.

Above the three words in the captain's quarters, there is also on the door frame outside the cabin.

The two small words 'Wiel' quietly appeared on it.

Suddenly, Wiel's ears moved, and he heard movement on the deck.

He hurriedly stood up, wiped his face, and lay back on the bed.

Weir closed his eyes again, but suddenly.

"Huh?!"

Will was stunned for a moment, and he ...... How not to get tired?
