Chapter Seventy-Six: The Yacht
Huge yachts cut through the waves, splitting the waves in half and passing by. The color of the sea water in this area is like a solution of copper sulfate, and it is full of mystical blue.
The yacht is shiny white as a whole and has a double-layer structure. It's a small medium-sized tourist boat. With a draft of less than 4 feet and a height of about 3 meters, the metal hull is very strong, and the new turbine engines release huge thrust at low oceans.
The hull is very stable, and there is no shaking on the deck, let alone today, when the wind is beautiful.
It's just that for Li Yi, his heart and body are shaking now, and there is still blood on his hands. The bottom of my heart is also different from the warm sea breeze, cold to the bone. He clutched the sharp piece of iron that the locust had handed him in his hand.
"Don't be too withdrawn, now that you're saved, let's celebrate with everyone." The sound of locusts sounded in Li Yi's ears. The locust's huge body was like a shadow, completely covering Li Yi's figure, and its huge arms slapped on Li Yi's shoulders.
He held a goblet in which the red wine was condensed and could be swallowed in a small sip, and the locust took an awkward sip, a twisted smile on his face, and trembled with excitement. To the huge locust, the cup looked like a small thing, and it looked very incongruous.
Li Yi didn't say a word, his face was the same color as the iron piece in his hand, cold and terrifying.
Locust smiled and said nothing, he lowered his head, held the wine glass, and whispered in Li Yi's ear.
"Don't worry, boy, you're doing a good job, I haven't been so happy for a long time. No one else knows about this except me, and only I can see the blood in your hands, understand? I don't know when I changed into a tuxedo dress, which is particularly dazzling in Li Yi's eyes.
With that, the locusts joined the ballroom.
Li Yi's tongue and shoulders were shaking, until now, his mind was still Su Yushu's last face of despair and fear, and when the hot blood rolled on his arm, Su Yushu's unbelievable face was like a red soldering iron, deeply seared into Li Yi's heart.
There seemed to be Su Yushu on his right hand, and the last two hands were desperately holding his weight and temperature. But he couldn't feel it, Li Yizhi felt his coldness spreading in his chest, and he couldn't close his eyes.
The locust gave a signal with satisfaction, and he lit up the entire coastline with the last magnesium strip alloy metal sheet he carried, and for a moment the bright light bloomed into smoke and flickering bright colors at dusk, and at this moment Li Yi knew that they were saved.
Soon after, the locust's "friends" landed and invited them back to land.
Li Yi got on the boat in a daze, he stepped on the stairs in a few steps, and looked back, as if he could still see Su Yushu struggling on the beach, cold in a pool of blood.
"Alright." The locust couldn't see this, and he personally threw Su Yushu to a hidden place on the coastline. Li Yi's state was exactly what he wanted, and it was also what he wanted to see, and the joy that couldn't be hidden at the corner of his mouth made him push Li Yi onto the boat.
Until now. The locusts did not seem to be in a hurry to return to shore, their fleet was driven by the current, wandering along the coastal islands, until this day, Li Yi did not pay much attention, but it was clear that from the direction of the wind, their ship reached a sea area in the east of the ocean, where there were neither islands nor shipping routes.
"Off course?" Li Yi frowned, he stayed in his room, he didn't close his eyes for a long time, and a few bloodshots came out of his dry pupils.
He squeezed his palm, and the cold sensation crept into his mind along the piercing blade of ice.
"Tsk." Li Yi shook his head, hair
Shake, he stood up and patted his cheek.
"Since what happened, since it can't be changed, don't think about it." He sighed. "Compared to these, it is imperative to rescue Ran Zhi first."
Li Yi began to sort out the information he had at hand, but it was a pity that these days he was either in the prison of the Holy Tower, or on this isolated cruise ship, even if he wanted to know the information of the outside world, it was a luxury for Li Yi.
Passing by several islands, Li Yi found that there were fewer and fewer passengers on the ship. From an external point of view, maybe this is really just a pleasure boat, and he will not care about the destination and direction of the yacht, but Rao is so, he also figured out the situation on the ship, although the large yacht carrying dozens of people is very magnificent, but in fact, as a "friend" of the locust, there are only a few people.
Li Yi was sorting out this information, and the breath filled with waves outside the window poured in from the small lattice window, and a black seabird flashed in Li Yi's eyes, and disappeared for a moment.
Li Yi stood up suddenly, leaned out by holding on to the pane, but couldn't see the situation. As soon as he poked his head out, the whole yacht suddenly shook violently, Li Yi suspected that it was a huge wave, but the sea level as far as the eye could see was stable.
He was at a loss for what to do, when suddenly there was a commotion from the top of his head, and the sound of footsteps sounded on the deck in confusion, Li Yi got back in confusion, and there was a knock at the door.
Li Yi felt that the momentum was not right, the knock on the door was getting faster and faster, he went to the door lightly, judging from the sound and footsteps outside the door, he knew that it was not a locust. Of course, it won't be locusts.
The locust returned to the ship, as if he had returned to his own kingdom, even if he admired Li Yi again, he would not make too direct moves, especially now, his hands were no longer clean.
Li Yi took a deep breath and opened the door.
Outside the door was a frightened face. Li Yi has seen a lot of this kind of expression, and he knows better than anyone what this face means. This face is now hanging on the face of the female cleaner, with a square scarf wrapped around her head, and her steps are messy, Li Yi glanced over and found that the corridor behind the cleaner was wet and looked like it had just been mopped.
"What's wrong?" Li Yi grabbed the doorknob and didn't mean to let go.
"Something happened, the boss told you to hurry up." The cleaner's tone was very nervous, looking Li Yi's every move up and down, although she didn't rush in, but her eyes obviously passed through Li Yi and looked into the room.
Li Yi didn't know if this was the instruction of the locust, he nodded, didn't say anything, squeezed out of the cleaning girl's sight, got out of the room, and closed the door.
"Let's go." Li Yi's tone was very calm, neither asking about the specific situation, nor showing the slightest anxiety or resistance. He followed the cleaning girl, and the two of them hurried through the guest room below deck, hurried to the second floor on deck.
It seems that the locusts are waiting for themselves in the hall. Li Yi had a number in his heart, and began to pay attention to the situation around him, and when he came out this time, he noticed that whether it was the passengers or the sailors on the ship, it was obvious that there was more than half of it.
Li Yi had never asked where the locusts had gone, but now in this situation, the surroundings were a little terrifyingly quiet.
The cleaning lady took Li Yi to the second floor, and as soon as he entered the hall, he saw locusts. The locust sat in the center of the hall, on a tall chair, looking a little lazy, compared with the excitement when he first got on the boat, the current locust was more like the one Li Yi saw for the first time.
The locust rested one leg on the table, its broad body resting on the back of the chair, and there was only a coldness and solemnity on its face, and there was no other look. But Lee
Yi knew that he was suppressing his emotions.
"Mr. Li Yi." When the locust saw Li Yi, he squeezed out these words from his mouth.
Since getting on the boat, when the locust sees Li Yi, he will inevitably call him so, which is not respectful, but for other people on the ship, the four words "Mr. Li Yi" can be regarded as sincere fear that they have never seen their boss call other people like this, let alone such a young man.
However, when Mr. Li Yi walked out of the room and stood up straight in this hall, they looked carefully, and they really couldn't see any clues. Neither the appearance of a tiger wolf, nor the temperament of a killer, just looking at it, he is still a little thin and thin, such an ordinary young man is even a little weak, I really don't know why the locust has three points of respect for him.
But right now, Li Yi swept his gaze, and he knew that although these people didn't have himself in their eyes, they didn't pay too much attention to it.
"Locusts." Li Yi nodded, as if he had greeted the locust.
But his attitude made the faces of several henchmen around Locust turn white.
However, the locust did not make any special moves, although he had long had an opinion on Li Yi's casual name, but he was helpless.
"Something happened in the boat." The locust's face became unsightly, Li Yi stared at the locust's face, and his heart began to waver, although he already had a guess.
"There was a death on board." Locust said.
He said these words smoothly, as if it was none of his business, but Li Yi listened more calmly.
"Oh, how many?"
When the locust heard Li Yi's casual answers and questions, he couldn't help frowning.
"One." The locust held out a finger. "Now there's only one."
He added.
"Now?" Li Yi immediately noticed the locust's words, as if he knew that sooner or later he would die.
But he knew that the locust would not explain to himself, and he did not hold on too much, and continued to ask, "Is there a wound?" ”
He subconsciously asked questions, the purpose of which was, of course, to determine the cause of death of the corpse, and although death from disease and malnutrition on ocean voyages was rare, it was also excusable.
"It's murder." The locust immediately denied Li Yi's conjecture.
"Yes." Li Yi replied with a smile. "Otherwise you wouldn't have come to me."
The locust nodded, and he stood up, his burly figure extremely tall. From the moment he entered the door, Li Yi felt that the locusts had arrived on the ship, like the emperor of a kingdom, sitting directly opposite, and the indescribable deterrent power was endless.
"Can I take a look?" Although he asked so, Li Yi had long known in his heart that the purpose of the locust was to let him help him find out the reason for the matter. "There is no protection on site."
The locust didn't say a word, just nodded, and a few steps blew like the wind, passing through Li Yi's side and walking towards the deck. Li Yi followed.
"Come here, too." The locust tilted its head at the cleaning girl.
"Yes...... Be. The cleaning girl, who pressed her head tightly and didn't dare to look at the locust, trembled in response, and followed behind Li Yi stiffly.
"The person you are looking for, I sent someone to start searching on land, if nothing else, there will be clues in the next two days." The locust took the lead and walked towards the scene of the crime, and his words were completely careless, and he simply didn't take a murder to heart.
"Thank you." Li Yi's answer was very simple, he followed behind the locust, and when he entered the room where the crime occurred, he clearly felt the huge body in front of him tremble violently.
