After Chen Tianci pacified Li Mengru, he got up and left the room. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Now that he has taken over the task of protecting Edward and the others, he must fulfill his duty.

He needed to check on the ship's security. Although the agreement between him and Edward has not yet officially begun, Chen Tianci is not a person who only cares about profits. He had a crush on Captain Edward. It's a friend worth making.

With Edward's trust, Chen Tianci checked it out on the Blue Whale. He inspected from the power compartment all the way to the protective cabin, ruling out potential safety hazards one by one. While passing by the cabin where the female crew members were resting, Chen Tianci unexpectedly met an acquaintance.

In fact, this person is not an acquaintance of Chen Tianci. Chen Tianci looked at the woman who appeared in front of him and was stunned. The woman also happened to see Chen Tianci, and she grew her mouth in surprise.

"Is that you?" The two of them said the same thing almost in unison.

This person is Chen Tianci when he was in Huaishui City before, and he rescued the stall girl Ah Xiang with Lu Mengqi. But he remembered very well that this woman named Ah Xiang already had a family.

That brave young man, Chen Tianci, had forgotten his name. But the young man's unyielding will to die at that time made Chen Tianci remember it very deeply.

"Why are you here?" Chen Tianci hurriedly asked.

Ah Xiang walked a few steps and walked to Chen Tianci, and his knees were so weak that he was about to kneel. Chen Tianci hurriedly stretched out his hand and grabbed her. "Hey! Miss Xiang, what are you doing here? Chen Tianci said.

"Please save my child." She said, sobbing.

"Your child?" Chen Tianci was slightly stunned.

Ah Xiang got up and slowly spoke: "I can't stay in Huaishui City anymore. So I left with the child. But not long ago, while passing through Chiba Castle, my child was taken away by a group of masked men. ”

"Masked man?" Chen Tianci frowned slightly. Chiba City knew that it was a deep-sea city-state that belonged to the Wa Kingdom. Located on the edge of the Okinawa Trough, it is one of only a few deep-sea cities built on an undersea plain.

"Originally, I was taken away by them. I took advantage of their carelessness and escaped. But," she cried, "but I couldn't find my child." I don't know where he was taken by them. ”

Chen Tianci's brows furrowed tightly. "Don't worry, speak slowly." Chen Tianci hurriedly found a place, asked Ah Xiang to sit down, and learned in detail about what Ah Xiang said.

It turned out that Ah Xiang was in Huaishui City back then, although she received the help of Chen Tianci and Lu Mengqi to take back her own things from the hands of that group of scum soldiers, but her lover was seriously injured and died.

Her in-laws resented her for this and eventually kicked her out of the house. She was a weak woman, and she couldn't survive in Huaishui City, so she had to take her children to other cities, trying to find a way to live.

She heard that she could make money selling handicrafts in the Wa Kingdom, so she took her children to Chiba Castle. But she had only arrived long before she had an accident. The child was kidnapped, and she almost fell into a point where she could never recover.

According to Ah Xiang, the place where she escaped was the cellar of a large manor. There are a lot of women who have the same experience as her. Most of them couldn't survive in other deep-sea city-states, or they wanted to come to Chiba City to pan for gold.

When Chen Tianci heard this, the anger in his heart instantly rose. He hurriedly ran the soft water technique, suppressed the anger in his heart, and continued to listen to Ah Xiang.

Later, when she was desperate, she wanted to kill herself, but she accidentally met Captain Edward, who went to Chiba Castle to do business. Edward persuaded her and brought her back to the Blue Whale, giving her a place to live.

Chen Tianci couldn't help but admire Edward's personality. This European captain, although a little arrogant, is full of love and kindness in his bones. This is a rare quality.

Chen Tianci couldn't help but think of what Edward said at the dinner table: "There is too little love in this world." ”

He looked at Ah Xiang, looked around left and right, and saw that no one was passing by, so he lowered his voice and whispered to Ah Xiang: "Don't worry, I am going to go to the country of Wa this time." I'm definitely going to Chiba Castle. ”

"Really?" Ah Xiang said in surprise.

"Shhhh Chen Tianci made a booing motion, "You must not tell anyone else about this, you know?" ”

Ah Xiang nodded. "Don't worry, as soon as I arrive in the waters of Okinawa, I will rush to Chiba Castle. At that time, your Blue Whale will be safe. I can leave with peace of mind. Chen Tianci said, "You can rest assured on this boat." Edward was a good man. He will take care of you. ”

Ah Xiang nodded. She thought about it, and suddenly reacted. "You! It turns out that you are the one who saved us today! She said in surprise.

"What? You still don't know? Chen Tianci was a little surprised.

Ah Xiang shook her head. "I usually help out here and rarely go around anywhere else. Today, everyone was already desperate, and the suicide note was ready, but I didn't expect a savior to come suddenly. Everybody's talking about it. She said.

Chen Tianci grinned. It feels really good to save people. He got up, comforted Ah Xiang a few words, and left. This night, Chen Tianci did not sleep again, he spent the whole night running around the boat, checking the situation everywhere.

The Blue Whale's hull was somewhat damaged from previous battles. The ship's mechanic had died in the previous battle, so the damage had to be maintained with a thin magnetic shield.

This is a drain on the ship's energy. Chen Tianci volunteered, put on a diving suit, swam outside the Blue Whale, and took over the mechanical maintenance work. The crew members are very grateful to the new Chen Tianci.

Since entering the deep sea, human beings have faced far greater pressure to survive than they once lived on land. The pressure of the sea, the rampant mutant sea beasts, and the occasional appearance of pirates all put the people who beg for a living in the sea at all times at the threat of death.

And human nature often takes on its essence at such times. Cold, cruel, and ruthless, this is the common feeling of almost all people who beg for a living in the deep sea.

And Chen Tianci's appearance seems to have brought a different flavor to the crew on the Blue Whale. A hint of genuineness, with a taste of human feelings. It's a warm feeling that hasn't been seen in a long time.

Chen Tianci took off his diving suit and ended today's work. This is his fifth day aboard the Blue Whale. They're traveling much faster now than they used to. With his repairs, the Blue Whale regained 80 percent of its momentum and began to make its way to one of the fishing grounds on its itinerary.

Chen Tianci walked out of the water cabin, and before he had walked far, Li Mengru walked over. There was a hint of melancholy on her face. Chen Tianci realized that something was wrong and hurried over.
