Chapter 161: Amulet
The scream came suddenly, and it didn't sound too far away. I settled the people in the restaurant, and instructed Yao Qianwen a few words, and followed the direction of the sound, all the way to the small bar on the boat, and just happened to collide with a group of people, and the cry seemed to be made by them.
Three men and two women, not very old, in their early twenties, maybe eighteen or nineteen.
I hadn't seen these people in the hallway just now, and I realized that there was a problem, it was impossible for everyone to come here to see the excitement, there were always people who didn't know what was going on, and I needed to find a way to inform them.
"What's going on?" I asked what had just happened.
One of the boys, frightened, pointed to the doors on either side of the bar passage and said, "You, can't you see?" The doors are open! ”
It's all open, but is it worth screaming?
But if you look closely, although I don't know what kind of rooms those are, they seem to be all electronic doors, which should have been locked before, and it is indeed a little strange to say that at the moment of the power outage, it suddenly opened at the same time.
But in fact, not only that, the boy continued: "Just, just the moment of the power outage, there was a sudden ...... in several of us It felt like something was worn......"
"Wear?"
The two girls held each other's hands, and one of them, with an ugly face and trembling eyes, moved to the open doors, and said in a trembling voice, "Yes, that feeling...... It's weird...... I can't tell. But I haven't seen the crew yet, and I don't know what's going on. The whole ship is gloomy...... Hey, have you ever heard that kind of story, when my grandfather was young, he often went to sea, and it is said that there is no popularity on this sea, and some strange things will happen on the large ships that occasionally go to sea...... So, this ship, yes, shouldn't it be haunted? Isn't it, brother? ”
After saying that, my eyes turned to the boy I was talking to, and they seemed to be brother and sister.
As for the girl's words, I probably understood them. She probably wanted to describe the inexplicable feeling she had just now, but she was actually "ghosted". Combined with the flickering lights, and the sudden opening of the door, there is indeed a bit of that smell.
"Got it, don't worry, at least there's no more strange stuff happening to you right now. Until then, let's meet at the restaurant. I responded.
They looked at me suspiciously, and the boy who had explained the problem to me earlier asked, "Restaurant?" Gather? Big brother, what do you say, why do you want to gather, is the crew door found? Also, are you? ”
"I can't say three or two sentences, anyway, I will get there first, and then I will explain it to you."
"A lot of people are there?" The boy continued.
"In"
Although I was skeptical, I seemed to be better at talking than the previous ones, and a few young men and women then came to the restaurant with me. On the way, I kept thinking about what they said, what was the feeling that they described as "ghostly"? It felt like it was happening in the moment of a power outage.
Is there any connection between the two?
Power outages, door openings, and "upper body" ......
"Yes...... Was it electrocuted? ”
I had a little idea in my head, but it was still very vague.
At this time, we had just arrived at the entrance of the restaurant, and the young men were in front and I was behind. But just as they were about to walk into the restaurant, I suddenly noticed something out of my eyes.
In the pocket of the boy in front of him, half a chain hung down, very thin, like a necklace.
I pulled it out, and it turned out to be a necklace!
Purple transparent stone, set in silver metal!
This is......
"Huh?" The boy looked back at me suddenly.
I looked up and was at eye level with him, we were about the same height and close in size, he was wearing black short sleeves, and so was I.
If it were him, then it would not be impossible for Guan Xiangsong to admit his mistake.
However......
The boy tugged at the necklace, "What are you doing?" ”
"It's nothing, the necklace is pretty good."
"You're a strange man." After speaking, he turned around and walked to the restaurant, and wrapped the necklace around his hand.
The necklace was a lot like the one of the dead woman before, but it wasn't.
Although the color, material, and even the pattern are very similar, the stone of the woman's necklace is angular and even has some sharp parts, but this one is very rounded.
But how could it be so coincidental.
"You're back? How, what's the situation? Guan Xiangsong probably heard our footsteps, and then walked out of the restaurant, and just rubbed shoulders with the boy before, and his hand hit the necklace that the boy had just wrapped around his wrist, "Blind?!" Watch it! ”
This made Guan Xiangsong curse, but immediately, his expression froze, and it seemed that Yu Guang also noticed the pendant, and then grabbed the boy's shoulder, his hand was very heavy, and directly pressed the boy to the ground: "What the hell are you!" It's you!! ”
Without waiting for me to speak, he slapped the boy in the face, "I'm going to kill you!" ”
"Hey! Are you crazy!! "The boy struggled.
"What are you doing?! Let him go! His companions arrived.
"Help! Hit someone!! ”
The boy's companions, some pulled the rack, some helped, and some called for help.
Some people in the restaurant came out to watch the excitement, including Guan Xiangsong's friends, who also scuffled with the boy and others when they saw this, and the scene became very chaotic for a while.
"Stop!" I grabbed Guan Xiangsong, but I didn't expect that this guy was quite strong at this time, and it was difficult to pull him away from the boy, but fortunately, at this time, the whole ship suddenly began to shake! Just like during the day, the large window of the restaurant seemed to flash something, blocking out the moonlight for a moment!
At that moment, screams rang out, and the chaotic fight scene was terminated.
"Don't run around! Stay here and calm down!! I yelled.
But it was completely useless, and the shaking lasted for more than half a minute, during which many people fled the restaurant, and when the shaking stopped, everything was calm, and the rest of the people were only a third of what they had before.
This ignited a fire in my already irritable heart.
I poured my anger on Guan Xiangsong, grabbed him by the collar, and pressed him down against the wall: "Are you crazy, you!" What are you doing?! ”
His companion stepped forward and tried to fight me, but I knocked him over, and then continued to hold Guan Xiangsong, "I know why you're crazy, but you can see clearly, that kid's necklace is very similar, but not your girlfriend's!" ”
He pushed me hard, but he didn't push away, but the anger was still there, and he yelled at me, "I just saw him clearly!" That's the necklace you're talking about! I'm not mistaken!! ”
I let go of a hand and reached behind me, "Bring the necklace!" ”
Another beating, another sudden shaking of the hull, and the commotion of the crowd, one after another, made the boy very confused, and he didn't think too much, and obediently put the necklace on my hand.
I placed the pendant in front of Guan Xiangsong: "You can see clearly, this edge and corner are round, unless this kid's necklace is sharpened again with professional tools after getting it, it is really not your one." Calm down, no matter how angry you are, the dead will not be resurrected! The faster your heart beats, the dumber your brain becomes, put your anger away, and if you're still wondering how exactly your girlfriend died. ”
Guan Xiangsong's eyes finally calmed down a little.
That's when I slowly let go.
I was really annoyed by the way he was angry, but I could see that he was in great pain right now. He kept his eyes on the necklace, and finally said to me in a half-trembling voice, "But this is really the ......."
He has calmed down, at least his eyes will not spent, at least he has looked carefully for a few minutes, so this sentence should not be nonsense.
I also stared at the necklace, then quickly turned my gaze to the boy: "What's going on?" ”
"What...... What's going on? What do you do? I, I don't know anything, why are you beating people? What did you want us to do in the restaurant? The boy also looked confused.
So, I spent a while letting the boy know the cause and effect.
During this period, I also asked Yao Qianwen one thing, asking her to look for scattered crowds around the cruise ship, and it is best to be able to Amway people to the restaurant. Reluctantly, she finally agreed to my request.
After Yao Qianwen left, the boy who was beaten also roughly understood everything that happened before, and then explained everything about his necklace.
As Guan Xiangsong said, I am not mistaken, that necklace is indeed not a boy. But the boy didn't steal or rob, and he had nothing to do with Guan Xiangsong's girlfriend. In addition, I did not admit that I was mistaken, this is not the one that Guan Xiangsong's girlfriend wore before.
So, what's going on?
Let's start with yesterday when I was in the pool......
The boy had been wearing a similar necklace that had been given to him by his grandfather, who had been at sea all the year round when he was young, and when safety was limited, it was easy to have accidents when he went to sea, so he prayed to the gods for his safe return. So that pendant is actually a talisman. The old man loved his grandson very much, and after the boy was born, he gave him the pendant to wear. However, when it comes to it, the amulet looks like a woman's style when used as a necklace, so boys rarely wear it around their necks.
He didn't believe much in the theory of ghosts and gods, and he brought it with him only because the old man forced it, which can be regarded as obedient and filial.
That day near the pool, his necklace was wrapped around his wrist, but he accidentally fell to the ground and happened to be picked up by Guan Xiangsong's girlfriend. At this time, his girlfriend discovered that the boy's necklace was very similar to the jewelry she had bought at the beach before. Finding it interesting, the two chatted a few more words.
After that, Guan Xiangsong's girlfriend exchanged her necklace pendant with the boy's amulet.
Hearing this, I was a little curious, so I asked, "She said to change, you will change with her?" Why? Isn't that your talisman? ”
"Huh? I ......"
Speaking of this, the boy's speech suddenly became slurred, spitting, and occasionally glanced at Guan Xiangsong, I probably understood, so I asked, "Because she is beautiful, do you want to develop some stories?" ”
"I, I, I didn't know she had a partner at the time, I really didn't know."
"It's okay, those don't matter. But is that really all there is to it? I continued to ask.
"Actually, there is an accident...... The boy picked up Guan Xiangsong's girlfriend's necklace at this time and looked at it carefully, and responded: "She is very beautiful, polished round and smooth, and she won't cut her hands, I only have a very sharp edge, and she accidentally cut her fingers when she picked it up." Strange to say, her blood rubbed against the edges and corners, and she couldn't get it off. At that time, the sister was also embarrassed, so she said, 'Why don't we change or something?' and that's it, so I exchanged with her. ”
I took the pendant from the boy's hand, through the translucent stone, I could faintly see the faces of people, blurry, as if in a dark purple viscous and thick liquid, I suddenly thought of something, took the pendant away from my eyes, and asked the boy, "That girl is your sister?" She seemed to have mentioned strange things at sea. Your grandfather is the same person, how did the old man get this amulet? ”
