The deputy captain, who was tied to the sofa, gradually woke up and found three people sitting in front of him, and the three of them looked like they were asking for guilt. The co-captain asked loudly with a twist of his body.

"What are you doing here? Let go of me. ”

Fang Fan (yīn) said coldly.

"Let go of you? Can't you hurt Zhuo Man again? ”

"Did I hurt Mr. Zhuo? How is it possible, you do not wronged people. ”

"The evidence is conclusive, don't try to deny it."

The vice-captain then quibbled.

"Then why do you say I want to hurt Mr. Zhuo?"

Fang Fan was speechless for a while, it is true that there is not much evidence in his hands now, he wanted to deceive the deputy captain, but he didn't expect to be countered by him. The deputy captain looked at the three of them with an aggrieved expression at this time, Fang Fan actually had a trace of doubt in his heart, could it be that he really blamed the good people? But when Dolman took off his hood, all three pairs of eyes saw that the face under the hood was indeed the co-captain, and there was no doubt that it would not be wrong, the co-captain must be hiding something. Fang Fan cleared his throat and asked.

"What did you do when we got out of the cockpit?"

The vice-captain recalled.

"I'm still figuring out how to control the ship (shēn)."

"Is there surveillance in the cockpit?"

"Yes."

Fang Fan Zhuan (shēn) said to Zhang Ze and Zhuo Man.

"You go to the scene to maintain order, now you must not mess up, I and the deputy captain will go to check the surveillance video."

Zhang Ze and Zhuo Man nodded and left the captain's room, Zhuo Man frowned and looked at the deputy captain before going out, the deputy captain and Zhuo Man looked at each other, and there was no intention of giving in in their eyes. The deputy captain's performance made Fang Fan a little surprised, if the deputy captain was really a murderer, then he would definitely unconsciously avoid Zhuo Man's eyes, but at this time, the deputy captain's actions were not deliberately contrived, but completely natural.

Suddenly, Fang Fan stood between Zhuo Man and the deputy captain, and then Zhuo Man and Zhang Ze went out. After seeing the two of them walking away, Fang Fan whispered to the deputy captain.

"You're really not a murderer?"

"Of course."

Fang Fan pointed to the surveillance camera in the captain's room and said.

"Can I watch this surveillance footage?"

"Follow me."

The deputy captain took Fang Fan to the monitoring room, where there were a total of five TVs, and the deputy captain took the initiative to explain.

"There are more than 200 cameras on this ship. Except for the guest rooms, most of the entire ship can be seen from the surveillance. ”

"Let's find out the surveillance after we left just now."

The deputy captain found out the monitoring of Fang Fan and Zhang Ze running out of the cockpit just now, only to see that when the two ran away, the deputy captain and Zhuo Man were in the cockpit, and after a while, Zhuo Man walked out, presumably back to the captain's room, and the deputy captain had been alone trying to find a way to send out the fault. Suddenly, the normal screen turned into a full screen of snowflakes, and after about a second, the screen returned to normal, at which point the co-captain walked out of the cockpit with a hood on his head and a sharp knife in his hand.

The deputy captain looked at Fang Fan in surprise, his eyes were full of incredulity, Fang Fan was not in a hurry to draw conclusions, and said lightly.

"Then bring up the surveillance footage from the captain's room at the same time."

As soon as the co-captain made a skillful (cāo) work, he called up the monitoring of the captain's room. In the footage, Dolman returns from the cockpit to the captain's cabin and walks straight to the captain's body, where she leans down (shēn) to observe something, but due to the camera's angle, she does not capture it. When Zhuo Man was walking towards the sofa, a black shadow suddenly jumped out of her (shēn) body, Zhuo Man suddenly fainted at this time, and it happened that at this time, Zhang Ze pushed open the door of the captain's room and found Zhuo Man who had fallen to the ground, and hurriedly picked him up, and after a while, he saw the deputy captain standing behind the two (shēn) with a sharp knife.

The deputy captain didn't know what to say, but he couldn't wait to defend himself in front of the surveillance video, and he was a little incoherent for a while.

"You have to believe me, I'm really not a murderer."

Fang Fan looked at the deputy captain and said.

"In the face of ironclad evidence, you better not deny it."

With that, Fang Fan stretched out his hand and opened the door of the monitoring room slamming open. Zhang Ze and Zhuo Man arranged for people to collect the dead body of the waiter, and now they don't ask for anything else, just don't die anymore. At this time, a young man ran over and said to Zhuo Man.

"Mr. Zhuo, that madman has been caught."

Zhang Ze asked curiously.

"What madman?"

"It's the madman who shouted that God punished him, Fang Fan asked me to arrange someone to arrest him."

Zhang Ze patted his head and remembered.

"Oh, yes, yes, yes. What does that guy do? ”

"Let's just ask."

Zhang Ze and Zhuo Man came to a small room, and there were two (shēn) young men in black suits standing at the door, who looked like bodyguards, and when they saw Zhuo Man coming, they first bowed slightly, and then quickly opened the door of the room. One of the bodyguards said to Zourman.

"Mr. Zhuo, this person is a little irritable, do you think it's up to us to ask?"

"No need, I'm going to interrogate him myself."

The man curled up in a chair, unaware that two men had entered the room. The man leaned back on the back of the chair with his hands and legs on his side and rested his head on his knees. Zhang Ze wondered how he had made this pose, and Zhuo Man slammed the chair next to him (shēn) to the ground. The man woke up suddenly, and he watched as Zoman suddenly fell out of his chair. Zhang Ze went over and put the man back in the chair, and Zhuo Man patted the table and asked.

"Who are you?"

The man grabbed Zhang Ze's arm in horror, and Zhang Ze felt that his (ròu) was about to be pinched off by the man. He quickly patted the back of the man's hand and motioned him not to push so hard. The man hid his face behind Zhang Ze's arm, occasionally sneaking a glance at Zhuo Man, Zhang Ze pulled out his arm vigorously, squatted down and said to the man.

"Don't be afraid, you just have to say your (shēn) share."

Suddenly, the man muttered quietly.

"Aoko."

Zhang Ze didn't hear clearly, so he asked again.

"What did you say?"

"Aoko."

This time Zhang Ze heard the man's words clearly, and it turned out that his name was Qingzi. Then Zhang Ze asked again.

"And what do you do?"

"Washing the dishes."

"You're a member of the ship's staff?"

Aoko shook her head and continued.

"I'm washing dishes in a restaurant."

"Are you going out on the boat?"

"Back... Go home. ”

"Where is your home?"

"My mother said that the sea is."

Zhang Ze judged that Qingzi's intelligence seemed to be a little abnormal, but the simple conversation was okay. At this point, Dolman became even more impatient and slapped the table again and again. Zhang Zedu is a little strange about Zhuo Man's changes, first the little girl next door, and then a strong woman in the workplace, now a bit like (bī) for the female devil, how many masks does Zhuo Man have? Zoorman yelled.

"Why did you just shout all that nonsense?"

Qingzi was so frightened by Zhuo Man that she whimpered, and hurriedly grabbed Zhang Ze's arm, and drilled into Zhang Ze's arms while grabbing. Zhang Ze made a (jìn) gesture on his lips, and Zhuo Man temporarily suppressed his anger. Zhang Ze held Qingzi's hand and asked in a low voice.

"Aoko, why did you shout like that just now?"

Qingzi leaned into Zhang Ze's ear and whispered.

"There are snakes, and there are ghosts."

Zhang Ze couldn't help but look at Qingzi in shock, and then asked.

"Can you see?"

Qingzi nodded, this is Zhuo Man actually ran over from a stride next to him and kicked Qingzi to the ground, Qingzi cried and got under the table, Zhang Ze hurriedly stepped forward to stop it.

"Zhuo Man, what are you doing here?"

Zhuo Man ignored Zhang Ze and pointed at Qingzi and scolded.

"If you dare to talk nonsense again, I'll tear your mouth apart."

Aoko cried even harder. Zhang Ze shook Zhuo Man vigorously and reprimanded loudly.

"You give me enough to stop, he's just scared, you won't be so mean."

"If word of ghosts and demons on board gets out, do you know what will happen to me and my group? Have you considered my feelings? ”

Zhang Ze was speechless for a while, and suddenly felt that what he had just said was a little heavy, so he softened down (qíng) Xu and said.

"I was too anxious just now, don't be angry, leave it to me here."

Zhang Ze reached out and patted Zhuo Man lightly on the shoulder as a sign of comfort. Who knew that Zhuo Man angrily shook off Zhang Ze's hand, turned (shēn) and slammed the door and went out. After Zhuo Man went out, Zhang Ze helped Qingzi out from under the table, let him sit on the sofa next to him, and instructed the bodyguard at the door to get some water. Zhang Ze then asked.

"Can you see things that ordinary people can't see?"

Qingzi nodded timidly, and Zhang Ze asked for further confirmation.

"Can you see a ghost?"

"Well, that woman just now is."

Zhang Ze said with a wry smile.

"That sister was just a little anxious just now, she's not a ghost, she's usually very gentle."

Qingzi looked up at Zhang Ze, pointed to Zhang Ze's arm and asked.

"Does it hurt?"

Zhang Ze said with a smile.

"It doesn't hurt. Qingzi, do you have (yīn) yang eyes? ”

Qingzi suddenly looked at Zhang Ze with round eyes and surprise, and then muttered in a low voice.

"My mother said that this is a ghost eye, and if it is discovered, it will be looked down upon."

"How could it be. Whoever dares to look down on you, I will help you beat him. ”

"Mother... My mother said that it was not good to beat people. ”

"Yes, yes, yes. Aoko, would you like to do me a favor? ”

Qingzi blinked and looked at Zhang Ze, these eyes were like two diamonds, shining but clear and clean.

"What's the busy?"

"Can you follow me until the ship stops, and tell me where you can see but can't be seen?"

Aoko hesitated for a moment, then nodded. It would be great if you could use Aoko's ability to find a mask and get rid of the black snake that was wrapped around the ship (shēn). Zhang Ze explained the situation to the bodyguard at the door, and from now on Qingzi will be in charge of him. Zhang Ze took Qingzi to find Zhuo Man, and when Qingzi saw Zhuo Man, he still didn't dare to step forward, and always hid behind Zhang Ze (shēn). Zhuo Man didn't take the initiative to deal with Qingzi, but whenever Qingzi angered him, he would be scolded.

Although Zhang Ze explained Qingzi's ability to Zhuo Man, Zhuo Man didn't seem to buy it. Zhang Ze had no choice but to look at Qingzi more carefully, not letting him have any contact with Zhuo Man. At this time, Fang Fan came over, and Zhang Ze and Zhuo Man were resting in the hall with Qingzi.

"Old Fang, how is that deputy captain? Recruited? ”

"Hey, he confessed to the fact that he had attacked Droman."

Zhang Ze's heart suddenly caught fire and scolded.

"He's too bold to dare to make a move on Zhuoman."

Fang Fan said lightly.

"He's been locked up by me, and now we have to find the whereabouts of the mask first, and destroy the mask before we can get rid of the black snake that is wrapped around the ship (shēn)."

Zhang Ze told Fang Fan about Qingzi 1510, and Qingzi's ability might help them find the location of the mask. Suddenly, Zhang Ze asked Fang Fan a strange question.

"Old Fang, what do you think would happen if you put that mask on your face?"

Fang Fan said with a smile.

"If someone else brings it, it will definitely be more than lucky, but if you bring it, you may surrender it."

Zhang Ze suddenly became excited and said.

"What do you mean by that?"

Fang Fan lowered his voice and said.

"Because you're a green snake, your ancient divine power won't lose to a little black snake, right?"

"Well, if it weren't for the questioner's threat of the lives of the whole boat, it would have been easy to deal with this snake demon."

Zhang Ze said with a wit.

"Old Fang, why don't we fight it? I'll use the power of the green snake to quickly take out this snake demon, so we can get the ship to safety, right? ”

"No way, have you forgotten how the waiter died just now? As soon as you unleash the power of the green snake, the waiter (shēn) is different. It can be seen that the questioner has been watching us, and not only the questioner may also have Qiman, in short, now we are in the Ming. They are in the dark, and it is better to be careful in everything. ”

Fang Fan looked at the sea that seemed to be still outside, and said.

"There are about 48 hours left before it crashes into Dongquan Island."

"Then we'll have to find the mask before we do."

Suddenly Qingzi shouted, Zhuo Man was so noisy that he covered his ears, Zhang Ze hurriedly grabbed Qingzi's shoulders and asked.

"What's wrong?"

"There are snakes, snakes."

"Oh, don't be afraid, it won't be able to get in outside, and after you help us find the mask, we can drive this snake demon away, and then you will be a hero."

Qingzi, who was originally panicked, slowly calmed down, but he didn't expect Zhang Ze to have two more moments in comforting people. The three of them took Aoko to the captain's room to look for clues, presumably Captain Hunter also knew a lot about the Zansobie, and besides, he was a good sailor, so he might be able to find some useful clues here.

Hunter's office has not been carefully observed, the whole room is decorated in wood, if you don't go out, you probably think you are sitting in a wooden room, there is a book of navigation (rì) on the spacious desk, a swordfish specimen hangs on the wall behind the desk, and there is a nautical chart under the pointed fish mouth, on which Hunt made a fork mark, as if it is a place to hide treasure.

On the right-hand side is a bookcase, on which most of the Chinese classics are written, but there are very few books on navigation. Fang Fan picked up the nautical (rì) journal on the table, and the first page he opened read: 'Dedicated to Mary, the most (ài) in this life. The captain's death suddenly appeared in front of Fang Fan's eyes, and he suddenly had a heart (qíng) that hoped that Hunter's deep (ài) Mary had died, and if Maria was still alive, she would not be sad when she learned the news of Hunt's death. Fang Fan let out a long sigh and opened the Navigation (rì) Chronicle, and the following is the content of the Navigation (rì) Chronicle.

May 6, 1988 (rì)

Today was my first time on a boat, and I was impressed by the courage and strength of the sailors, who conquered the sea like fierce warriors during the day, and at night they drunkenly looked at the stars on the sea and missed the apple pie on their windowsill. Zoe is an old sailor, and he is also the captain's most trusted person, but unfortunately he has not been able to become the first mate all these years. In a chat, I found out why he failed to become the first mate, it turned out that he lived in his heart a child who longed for freedom, would he lose his freedom when he became the first officer? Besides, isn't life at sea free enough? When I finished asking this question, he handed me the first glass of liquor in my life.

May 20, 1988 (rì)

After a few days at sea we finally landed at a small port, and the captain told the sailors to go ashore to get some supplies, and he led me to a smelly place. The scent comes from the fat powder on the faces of the women who scratch their heads, and the smell comes from the clanging coins in the pockets of men and the long-term (rì) unexchanged (chuáng) sheets. The captain generously invited me to enjoy the most delicious meat in the world, and although I was a little stupid, I still suppressed the restlessness in my crotch, and I ran out with a red face, and the people behind me also blushed.

May 23, 1988 (rì)

I had to open my (rì) chronicle again, because today's goodness is definitely worth recording. I met Maria at a bazaar, her long brown hair scented with soapy water, her blue eyes stirring up waves in my heart, and I confessed that it was her intoxicating smile that finally hunted my soul, and her red lips ignited the (qíng) in my heart, and I wanted to offer my most precious thing as a sacrifice to this burning goddess. But when she handed me a carrot, I saw the ring on her hand, which was definitely the worst hint in the world. I was like a carrot in her hand, she seemed to be saying, 'Take the carrot, get out.'" You filthy sailor. At last I did not dare to look her eyes, for I feared that there would be contempt overflowing there.

Zoe's bravery isn't just when the waves come. He approached Maria and learned that her husband had died. Zoe then shoved me in front of Maria, and when I looked into her eyes, I realized that they were clearer than I had imagined, like a giant whirlpool, and I was willing to be a shipwreck in the whirlpool.

June 5, 1988 (rì)

Maria and I have been through several stormy nights, and I have learned the art of survival in her whirlpool like a small boat, and she has rejoiced in my bravery. The Son of Separation (rì) is still here, and I want to take Maria to the sea, but she seems to prefer land, but she says she is willing to wait for me to come back at this time of year. That's our unwritten promise, and I don't know if we can keep it.

June 19, 1988

The sea may seem calm, but the calmer the place, the more dangerous it becomes. Zoe and I were very drunk, the moon overhead told me it was midnight, and suddenly a ship with white torn sails approached us, under the influence of alcohol I couldn't see anything clearly, I could only hear the crying from the ship, when the ship approached us I saw the Zansobi written on the bow of the ship, I suspected that I must have been dazzled, this ship did not sink into the sea decades ago, but when it hit us I realized that it was not me who was dazzled but the real Zansoby, Instead of a pirate or a shipwrecked crew, Zoe woke up all the sleeping people by jumping from above, but a pale corpse. The brave sailors were not afraid of these ghosts who had died in vain, and they carried their swords to offer the last of their comfort.

It seems that the ghosts have been blessed by the sea, and they are in a different place under the sailors' swords (shēn), but in the next second they stand up again. Zoe handed me a chart with a red cross on it before rushing up, and I remember him not saying anything but smiling at me. When I shouted his name after him (shēn), his blood had already stained the ghost's claws, and I jumped into the sea with the chart, and when I poked my head out of the sea and took a big breath, I saw something glittering on the bow of the Zansobi, and I wondered what it was, but it was better to run away for now. Luckily, I found the ship's barrel in the middle of the sea and drifted back to Maria (shēn). With her smile on my face, I went back to life on land, and perhaps by this time Zoe and I had found our freedom.

December 3, 1998 (rì)

It's hard for me to imagine that the first thing I longed for after Mary's burial would be the sea. The trivialities of ten years of life have exhausted my patience (xìng) and Mary's life, and I can't find any other reason to leave this land than (ài) her, where should I go?

January 5, 1999 (rì)

I love this place, I am no different from their looks, but none of the women here can compare to the beauty of Mary.

At this time, Zhang Ze suddenly called Fang Fan.

"Old Fang, look at it."

I saw a gap open in the back of the bookcase.

"How did you get this?"

Zhang Ze pointed to the vertical globe next to the bookshelf and said.

"I just turned it slightly, and there was a crack in this bookcase."

Fang Fan reached out to pull the bookcase, but he didn't expect that the weight of this bookcase was too heavy, and in the end, the two of them had to work together to open it, and after opening it, they found that it was a secret door that required a four-digit password to open, Zhang Ze scratched his head and said.

"Why is it a password again?"

"Don't worry, the code is in this nautical (rì)."

At this time, Aoko stared at the other wall in a daze, and then pointed to the wall and shouted.

"There's something here."

Everyone looked at each other, and at that moment, the wall was suddenly covered with dense scales.
