Chapter 177: Stay
The previous encounter with the man who fell into the water at sea was just a small episode, and everyone speculated about his identity, but after the hapless guy was carried into the cabin, everyone turned their attention to other things.
As night fell, the people on the deck began to move in the direction of the restaurant one after another.
Luo Luo hesitated, but returned to the room, intending to ask Rob to eat with him, but when he pushed the door open, it was empty, and the girl was a little surprised, someone was not a person who liked to run around, and he also went to buy several books before getting on the boat, which he used to pass the time at sea.
Luo Luo saw the book of "The Use of Divine Power" spread out on Rob's bed, the author was Father Martin, and the girl was a little curious, not knowing why someone and a magician would look at such a thing, but as soon as she stretched out her head, a familiar voice came from behind her, "You're back." ”
"Ahh......h I'm not peeking at your book. ”
"I didn't say you were peeping. His Excellency the future Ultra Magister walked into the room as he spoke, although he was forced to reveal the secret of mimicry magic in the battle with Saruman, but he also gained a lot, coupled with the research he had done with D'Ardarion before, Rob's conjecture in his heart was even stronger, so he bought some theological works to study before boarding the ship.
The girl asked, "Where did you just go?"
"Look at the excitement, didn't there be two people who fell into the water on the boat before?"
"Hey, you're going to be interested in these things, too. ”
"We're now wanted by the Wizards' Guild and the Templars, so it's always right to be careful. ”
"Hmm, do you think there's something wrong with those two people who fell overboard?"
Rob was noncommittal, "We've only been out of Sword Bend Harbor for a little more than half a day, and now we're on a more popular route, there are a lot of ships coming and going, and these two people who have fallen into the water seem to have been floating for a long time, and for such a long time, no other ships have found them, but they were hit by us, wouldn't it be too coincidental?"
"Is it possible...... What were they brought by the current?"
"Now this month, there are no currents near the port of Sword Bend. Rob shook his head.
"But isn't the woman in it confirmed dead, and if there is any conspiracy, the price is too high. ”
The two of them appeared together...... It wasn't necessarily a gang, I just went to examine the woman's body, and found that she didn't die of lack of water or hunger and cold, she had bruises under her neck, and that was the real fatal injury. His Excellency the future Ultra Magister said lightly.
"Do you mean that someone killed her and then used her as a disguise to dispel the vigilance of the people on board, who could be the murderer, the man who was with her?"
"I don't know, but he shouldn't have come at us, if the temple and the Wizards' Guild knew that we were on this ship, they would have given the captain an order to return the ship directly, and for now, his target was probably a passenger on the ship. Robb said, "Shall we go to dinner first?"
"Oh, okay. ”
The meals in different classes on the Liuhua are different, the special class is in charge of a special chef, and the waiter will send them to the room, the first class has the least number of people but the largest restaurant, the second class is of a moderate size, but during peak hours, you need to wait for a seat, and the third and fourth class have the largest number of people, but they share the same restaurant.
Luo Luo was aroused, so he spoke again during the meal, "What do you think is the identity of that guy, a pirate, or a killer?"
"It's hard to say, but I personally don't think he's a bad guy, but more like a vassal of a certain family. ”
"Vassal?"
Rob nodded, "He has a scar on his left chest, it was left by a soldering iron, there should be a tattoo in the previous position, he has always been proud, but now he has covered it up with that scar, so my inference is that the family he works for is in trouble, and his presence here is probably related to this matter." ”
In that case, his target should be someone in first class or stateclass, well, at least half of the people in first class have noble status. ”
"Well, it can't be ruled out that there are other people who choose to hide their identities just like us. Rob added.
"In this case, the people in the second-class cabin are also suspicious, but since the matter has nothing to do with us, let's leave it alone. Lolo had already satisfied her curiosity, she and Rob were sensitive to their identities, and they didn't plan to wade into troubled waters again, and put down their forks after eating the chicken and peas on their plates.
Five minutes later, Rob also sorted out the food in front of him, and raised his eyebrows, "Go to bed early tonight?"
"Okay. Luo Luo said subconsciously, but after she finished speaking, she seemed to have just remembered something, and her face turned red.
She had never slept so close to a person of the opposite sex in such a small space, and her cheeks burned at the thought of it.
But Luo Luo sadly found that she didn't seem to have any excuses to use, in fact, even if she could escape tonight, she couldn't keep escaping, if nothing else, they would have to drift at sea for half a year, that is to say, for the rest of the time, she had to sleep with someone in the same room, well, although strictly speaking, it was divided into two beds, but considering the almost negligible distance in the middle, Luo Luo felt that it was no different from sleeping together.
The girl bent her neck and returned to the room with someone as if she were going to the execution ground, and Rob had just lit the candle when he looked back to see that Luo Luo had quickly wrapped himself in the quilt and then shrunk into the corner.
The girl's little heart pounded when she heard the sound of changing clothes outside, but after a while, she heard someone open the door.
Luo Luo cautiously poked his head out of the quilt and saw someone dressed neatly, "You...... Where are you going?"
"Oh, I just meditated before, and now I can't sleep, go out for a walk. ”
The girl bit her lip, she knew that Rob didn't tell the truth, the other party left the room now just to take care of her, not to make her feel embarrassed, Luo Luo suddenly felt a little guilty, she was only embarrassed before, she didn't expect to cause trouble to the people around her, she should be treated special in special times, she used to be a woman dressed as a man when she took risks, but she also slept on the ground with the other members of the team, and she didn't feel anything at the time, and now she shouldn't have anything awkward about sharing the bed, Luo Luo reflected on herself, and then said in a voice smaller than a mosquito, " You stay, I'm okay, I'm fine, I'll feel safer with you. ”
