Chapter 9 Cruises

The first thing Lu Chang did when he got up was to call Changle to report the progress of the day.

Changle was already having breakfast. After listening to Lu Chang's chatter, he unexpectedly did not play around as usual, but remained silent.

"Anyway, I still have my mobile phone, which can be contacted." Lu Chang is quite open.

"This phone is not for making calls." Changle sighed slightly, "You don't have a signal on the high seas, what kind of call are you calling?" ”

"Aha." Lu Chang began to scratch his head and laugh awkwardly.

"The phone I gave you is a spirit rune. Aren't you curious how I know you're going to substitute for Shi An? It can give me some information, such as whether you are in danger, where you are, whether you are still alive, what are you doing... Candle this child is always so-so, and forgot to remind her that she really didn't bring it. Changle felt his head grow, "Finally, remind me again, and send me a message immediately if there is a situation." ”

"Isn't there no signal?"

"What do you see on the back of your phone?"

Lu Chang flipped PHS to the back. He had already seen this mobile phone painting, wisteria-like rattan, the petals were the color of blue and white porcelain, five petals, the stamens were goose yellow, and the flowers covered the entire back.

"That's my mustard seed, and it's my last protection for you."

Changle's voice fell, and the vines trembled with heart.

"When passing through the port, you must be careful, pay more attention to the passengers around you, and the most important thing is to check the changes in the customer's body, and don't interfere with the rest." Changle admonished.

"Okay, okay, I'll definitely follow the instructions of you and Miss Candle!" Lu Chang hurriedly promised.

On the other end of the phone.

Changle's paw left the phone screen and jumped from the dining table to the windowsill, the morning sun was just right.

Amy held a glass of hot milk and placed it next to Changle, the porcelain and the tiles collided with each other, making a crisp sound.

"Why are you so worried this time? The murder candle has also been dealt with a lot, just to be a bodyguard. Amy asked lazily with a slice of buckwheat bread in her mouth.

"The stinky girl doesn't have a talisman. Also, I always feel like I want to be simple. ”

"Isn't there still that little girl on Lu Chang's body? Although I was on a business trip on the day Lu Chang joined the company, I knew it from the reflection of the black robe alone. ”

"When are they coming back?"

"It's just a matter of the past few days, and studying abroad is not a honeymoon."

"We have to cheer up, Sir said anything, Candle has already talked about it."

"Well, the new king is in Kyoto."

"Sometimes I'm scared." Changle kept staring out the window and said softly.

"Huh?"

"Whether it's a funeral for the roses, or a final chapter, we've been losing our partners... Even family. ”

"Isn't this the inevitable mission of joining the Moon Society? In the past thousands of years, I think every member of the club has the determination to be happy. ”

"Nope." A cold and decisive voice.

"You understand why we're fighting." Changle responded word by word. "Even if the old president dies in the arms of the new president, and the new king kills the old king, we will always be their enemies."

Amy was silent.

"I'm going to destroy that half."

"You've decided?"

"This is not only what I meant, but also the last wish of my husband. I can't let the moon bleed anymore. ”

"What about you? What to do with candles? ”

"Candle is coming of age today, she should grow up... Maybe later she will understand me. ”

The plane arrived on time and the scheduled driver was already waiting at the pick-up gate. Lu Chang and his entourage took their luggage, put it in the trunk, and went directly to the dock of the destination.

It was the first time Lu Chang had seen such a big ship. The whole ship is as long as a large shopping mall, and the height even reaches the height of a small high-rise. Shadows covered the sea, spread out like a curtain, a steel beast.

Bai Xiao took Lu Chang and Candle to get the boarding documents from the team leader, checked the luggage with the luggage tag, and applied for the room card in the dock hall. Bai Xiao looked around with a curious look on his face, and couldn't help but smile,

"This is an oasis-level cruise ship, if you want to have fun, tell me as much as you want, and I'll take you there."

"What level?"

"That's the biggest thing."

The rooms of the three were side by side, all on the eleventh floor. After passing the customs border inspection and the inspection of relevant staff, and collecting passports, Lu Chang and his party finally boarded the ship. The carpet pattern in the corridor is dark purple, like lilacs in the middle of the night, surrounded by golden orange sconces, and the nameplate of the house number also reveals a metallic luster. Lu Chang found his room, pushed the door open, the sunlight swarmed in along the large floor-to-ceiling window, he squinted, from here, the sea stretched and gentle and calm.

The sofa is on the left-hand side, navy blue, semi-circular in shape, surrounded by a small round coffee table. The walls are also navy blue velvet, with frescoes hanging in the blank spaces, and on the right is a double bed covered with large gold embroidery, and the guardrails and handrails on both sides of the bed are carved hollow. The small room on the left near the floor-to-ceiling window is a washroom, which is small but quite spacious. Above the sink is a window that can be pushed outward, and next to it is a bathtub and a flush toilet, where you can feel the breeze blowing through the sea. On the other side, open the door to a small terrace with a lazy chair and a clean white coffee table.

Lu Chang's luggage was neatly placed next to the bed, everything seemed to deviate from the original track of life, but it was so clearly presented in front of him. He sat down next to the bed, lay down on the bed with his arms outstretched, and buried himself deep in the quilt, with a very good fragrance coming from the quilt.

He fell asleep.

Boom Boom. There was a knock on the door.

Lu Chang rubbed his eyes and woke up, and the sea outside the window was surging with golden waves.

He found that he had fallen asleep unconsciously, and for a moment he was a little confused, and opened the door in a daze.

"Lu Chang, let's go eat." The girl's face outside the door was full of anticipation for a new life, and she didn't look like she had been troubled for a long time. Bai Xiao is a lively and talkative girl, and she doesn't like to talk along the way, but she and Lu Chang talk happily.

"Where's the candle?" Lu Chang asked while rubbing his eyes.

"Please go and call Lin Candle." Bai Xiao blinked.

"I'll wash my face." Lu Chang agreed with Bai Xiao to meet downstairs in five minutes, returned to the house, hurriedly turned on the faucet, wiped his face, tore off the towel on the side, wiped his face and wet hair, picked up the room card and brought it to the door, and rushed to call the candle.

Surprisingly, the candle was not in the house.

Lu Chang wanted to make a phone call, but suddenly remembered that Candle didn't bring a mobile phone, and he was faintly worried.

Seeing that the appointed time was approaching, Lu Chang could only meet with Bai Xiao first.

"Why didn't Candle come with you?" Bai Xiao stood at the bottom of the escalator of the restaurant, saw Lu Chang coming over from a distance, and beckoned.

"She's not in the house, I can't reach her." Lu Chang said anxiously.

"Then let's ask the staff to send a missing person notice?" Bai Xiao was also a little worried.

Lu Chang remembered Changle's explanation, he must be low-key and careful, shook his head, and said, "Forget it, she will definitely come back in the evening, wait for her to come back, let's go to dinner." ”

"Also, maybe we'll meet in a while, and there's no danger in staying on the cruise ship and not being able to run elsewhere." Bai Xiao comforted Lu Chang.

The color scheme of the garden restaurant is predominantly white and golden. In the color selection of the carpet, there are many gold-dust-like branches and leaves interspersed between the large crimson patterns, which look like Tang peony on the golden branch. The hanging lamp is like an upside-down cake, but if you look closely, it is a round surface made of crystal pendants. The tablecloth is white, with a cover for the seats, and dark purple flower arrangements and handkerchiefs are placed in front of each seat. The dining room is spread over two floors, with a ballast in the middle of a balissed gardenia, balustrades decorated in gold lacquer and wood grain, and purple curtains fluttering in the wind.

Lu Chang sat on the second floor with Bai Xiao. The two ordered some Western-style dishes, and there were even Japanese-style finger fingers and sashimi on the menu, but Lu Chang was not in the mood to try it. The two sat facing each other, and Lu Chang looked preoccupied; Bai Xiao also lost the liveliness he had just now.

At this time, the cruise ship is already sailing on the calm sea, and the horizon is in the distance where the water and sky intersect, converging in an arc. There are many islands on the route, and sometimes seabirds hover overhead. Lu Chang suddenly thought that if the club's spring recruitment didn't go to the toilet, he didn't go the wrong way... How ridiculous and plausible all this is. The scientific world explains some objective physical phenomena, but the invisible and inaccessible spirits are like electromagnetic waves. Maybe... One day their existence, their mustard seeds will also be brought into the physical formula and written into the equation of conservation of energy.

Where are the candles? Lu Chang wasn't really worried, he just felt empty in his heart. That night Candle said to herself that she wanted to be friends with you. How happy is Lu Chang? No matter who it is, he is rarely accepted and recognized as a friend, let alone such a proud candle... But now I only feel aggrieved. Candle must have gone alone, and didn't tell him. She must know the secret of the spirit rune! But I never say it to myself. The indifference that he felt from countless people approached him coldly again.

Even, candles are their biggest support. Without the ability of candles, he is just a true eye that can run. Bai Xiao's matter, although Changle said that it was okay, but after all, they hadn't done anything to deal with it. Could something happen, like a black fog? Lu Chang was fearful in his heart.

But Lu Chang thought of Changle.

Not only Changle, Amy, Sir, Amo... Everyone, the Moon Club is their own choice, and it is also a coincidence of fate, but no matter what, the people here have never ignored him. That's right, the candle must have some reason of its own. How can I blame her?

He decided. Now, as a member of the Moonclub's decision.

He stood up and removed the stool, and the tableware on the table shook off the table due to Lu Chang's violent movements. He took out the transmission note in his hand from his pocket and handed it to Bai Xiao,

"Take it in your hand, and I will hear it when I say it in my heart. I'm going to find Lin Candle. ”
