560 Thief

560

Zhang Xiao pinched the cross pendant hanging on his chest in one hand, while walking slowly in the corridor, although he did not sneakily hide from people, but he was not swaggering, he walked slowly along the wall, the light on the wall lamp shone on his body for a while, and then dragged him into the shadows, making Zhang Xiao's figure looming.

With his current status, he didn't want to be too conspicuous, after all, he was just an imposter priest, and there should be a real priest on this ship tonight.

Although it is not necessary that anyone will ask questions about the two priests, Zhang Xiao does not want to cause trouble for himself.

But trouble is sometimes not something that can be avoided if you want to, just when Zhang Xiao turned the corner and walked into the cabin, he was bumped into by a person head-on.

Zhang Xiao reacted quickly, and just took a step back to avoid the person as soon as he touched it, and was not completely hit, but the reckless guy who was running on the cruise ship seemed to be startled by Zhang Xiao, waving his hands and mixing garlic under his feet and falling to the ground.

"Oh, damn it."

The one who fell to the ground was a young Latin, or a teenager, who didn't look very old, maybe only eighteen or nineteen years old, with some curly hair and dark skin, rubbing his waist with one hand and supporting the ground with the other, and cursing in tongue-twisting, heavily accented English, "Which damn XX hit me, are you TM blind?" ”

He raised his head and couldn't see Zhang Xiao, who happened to be standing in the shadow of the light, and could only see a figure dressed in black standing there.

"Shit, you XXX idiot, dressed in black at night, is TM going to rob on a cruise ship, or is TM going to scare people to death?" He glared at Zhang Xiao viciously, "You injured Lao Tzu, don't think about it if you don't take out twenty dollars!" ”

Zhang Xiao frowned speechlessly, and wanted to turn around and leave, but realizing his current "identity", he still took a step in the direction of the Latin boy, walked to the edge of the light, and revealed the clothes on his body and the Bible on his hand, but did not show the part above the neck, and did not show his face.

"Child, I think you should calm down, it's not a good habit to speak ill of you, if you're really injured, I can accompany you to the ship's infirmary, or we can get off the ship and go to the hospital, and I'll pay for the medical bill."

Zhang Xiao's voice was calm, as if he was not angry because of the other party's bad words, but indifferently admonished, with a kind of open-mindedness and understanding of the world.

The Latin boy was finally slightly stunned when he saw Zhang Xiao's clothes, but he didn't panic or apologize, but pouted, got up and ran away.

Zhang Xiaozhi didn't care, originally he was just thinking about "personality", and he didn't really care about the Latin boy himself.

However, Zhang Xiao watched the Latin teenager disappear into the other side of the corridor, and when he turned to leave, his face suddenly changed.

He lowered his head and saw that his chest was empty, raised his hand and touched his chest, and sure enough, it was not an illusion, his cross pendant was really gone!

Did you just hit the Latin boy and fall to the ground?

Zhang Xiao looked at the ground around him, but he didn't see the cross pendant falling to the ground.

Obviously he was still holding it in his hand before, how could he suddenly disappear now?

Zhang Xiao turned his head to look in the direction where the Latin boy had run away, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Don't...... Was it picked up by the other party?

Or rather, stolen?

"Hmph, if it's really that damn little ghost, then he's so bold that he even dares to steal the priest's cross!"

Zhang Xiao gritted his teeth and scolded, but he didn't really care about the young man, although the young man may be "very fast", but Zhang Xiao was more concerned that he didn't even notice the other party's movements - the small movements of an ordinary person.

It's terrible, because if the other party has malicious intentions towards him, he is in danger...... You know, the cross pendant was hanging on his chest!

If the other party is not holding out his hand, or holding a knife in his hand, then he is already dead!

This kind of association made Zhang Xiao's heart slightly cold, but Zhang Xiao is not a person who will indulge in fear, otherwise he would not have a stand-in like Nightmare, although Nightmare was locked in his body and couldn't get out, but he quickly relied on his own "method" to get rid of this bad association.

"Pray to your fearless God, and don't see me again, or if you are really a thief...... Swear by this outfit that I'll take both of your hands off! ”

That's right, Zhang Xiao's method is to replace fear with another, more extreme emotion, hatred, revenge, are good choices.

It's not worth advocating, and it's not even a good choice for ordinary people, but it's different for Zhang Xiao, at least, it's an effective method.

Of course, Zhang Xiao will not go to the Latin boy for revenge now, not to say whether he is a real thief or not, in the end, this is just a way for him to divert his attention, not that he has any deep hatred with that young man.

But if that Latin boy is really unfortunate enough to be met by him again, and he is really a thief, then he will definitely do what he says, break his two hands, and let him know the fate of the thief!

……

Quantum Cruises is worthy of being one of the top ten cruise ships in the world, and both the decoration and service are the top that ordinary people can see.

Before anyone boarded the ship, Zhang Xiao had already walked around and had a slight appreciation of the luxurious style of this huge maritime city, but compared with now, it was still far inferior.

It was not obvious on the aisle on the side of the deck, but when Zhang Xiao walked into the wide hull, he was already dazzled by the brilliance before he entered the banquet hall.

The bright red carpet on the floor was laid out at some point, the wall lamps on both sides of the corridor were lit one by one, and even the small chandeliers were hung from the ceiling, one by one floating overhead like fireworks that would not be extinguished.

Some shops on both sides of the street are also decorated with lanterns and open their doors to welcome visitors to patronize and donate generously after attending banquets.

The tourists who come and go are also elated, although some are wearing formal dresses, some are just a beach suit, men and women are not only different genders, dressing styles are also different, painting styles are very different, but they are all harmoniously greeting and laughing with each other, and there is no estrangement to be seen.

After all, the people who can spend two or three weeks traveling here are not bad for money, and they are all human spirits, how can they not know that what they wear at this time is not the standard for judging each other's identities? Of course, everyone will pay attention to the communication, and will not take the initiative to say something that is easy to recognize.

But these have nothing to do with Zhang Xiao, he didn't come here to socialize, and as far as he is wearing a "characteristic costume" now, others may respect him because of his faith, but they will never talk to him about any "interesting things" in life.

Sure enough, Zhang Xiao walked all the way, and many people would stop and nod to him, but no one took the initiative to talk to him, which saved him a lot of trouble.

After a while, Zhang Xiao walked into the banquet hall.
