Chapter 346, the missing captain
Yang Chen was shocked and said, "This is the smell of corpses!" ”
Bai Zhou was surprised: "How do you know?" ”
"I'm a medical examiner." Yang Chen said.
Bai Zhou: "......"
It's really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.
Her gaze swept around and finally landed under the bed.
It was an ordinary wooden bed, covered with clean sheets and bedding, which hung down to cover the bottom of the bed.
Bai Zhou had a lot of strength and lifted the bed directly.
Yang Chen gasped, it turned out that there was a corpse lying under the bed!
The corpse was wrapped in plastic wrap to block the stench of the corpse's decomposing, but it didn't last long.
The smell of carrion is like the gangrene of the appendage, pervasive.
Yang Chen was not afraid at all, leaned over, untied the plastic bag, and began to examine the body.
Bai Zhouqi said: "Aren't you afraid? ”
Yang Chen said: "What's so terrible about the corpse? It's people who are really scary. ”
Bai Zhou nodded, which made sense.
Yang Chen checked for a while, his face full of shock: "How is it possible?" ”
Bai Zhou asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"It's not the right time to die." Yang Chen said in surprise, "Judging from the degree of decay of the corpse, he has been dead for more than ten days, but we still saw him when we got on the boat!" ”
Bai Zhou hadn't seen the captain, so he frowned and asked, "Could it be that it's not the captain, it's someone else?" ”
"No, this corpse looks exactly like the captain, unless it's a twin."
Yang Chen muttered to himself: "At the beginning, the intermediary told me that this ship just came back from the sea seven days ago, that is to say, the captain died when he went to sea last time, so ...... Who the hell is it? ”
An eerie atmosphere began to spread, and both of them thought of a terrifying possibility.
Bai Zhou said: "You turn over him again to see if he has anything else." ”
Yang Chen nodded, searched for a while, and suddenly pulled out a notebook from the back of his leather jacket.
The notebook looked a little old, and the leather cover was a little curly, because the corpse was decomposing, and the corpse water was running down, staining the cover a large black mass, giving off a disgusting rancid smell.
But neither of them was disgusted, and opened the cover, which turned out to be the logbook written by the captain.
Since the Age of Discovery, captains have had a tradition of writing logbooks, and once the ship is in danger, as long as the logbook can be left, the world will know what is really happening on board.
The two of them came together, and many of them were the diaries of the old captain when he went to sea, recording how he suppressed the crew, did not allow the crew to hurt the passengers, and did not allow the crew to hurt each other, and the crew was very convinced of him.
I went all the way to the back, and finally came to the last time I went to sea.
The first time out to sea was very good, they found a school of fish, and there was a great catch, the boat was full of joy, and the old captain opened a bottle of wine that had been treasured for many years to celebrate.
But soon, things don't go right.
It was an afternoon twenty-three days ago, when the crew guarding the catch came to the captain in a hurry and told the captain that there was a monster in the fish they had caught.
The crew was frightened and spoke incoherently.
The captain did not dare to slack off, and immediately ran over to check it out for himself.
When I opened the iron door of the fish tank and looked down, it was filled with seawater, but the water was quiet, so quiet that it seemed that there were no fish in it.
The captain angrily asked where the fish were, and they had beaten so much, and when they first put them in the hold, they were still jumping in them.
The crew told him in horror that it was the monster that had eaten all the fish.
The captain didn't believe it at all, and thought that the crew was drunk, and accidentally opened the secret door under the fish compartment and let the fish go.
Just as he was scolding the crew, he heard a violent sound of breaking water, and a monster rushed out of the water.
It turned out to be a strange fish with a terrifying shape!
The fish was half normal and half dry bones, like a fish half eaten at a banquet.
What's even more terrifying is that the fish still has human hands and feet, but it is shorter than ordinary people, and it crawls on the ground with its hands and feet.
Its face is flattened, like a man rather than a fish, and it crawls incessantly on the ground.
The captain and the crew were terrified, and the strange fish suddenly pounced on the crew, biting the crew's throat, tearing at his flesh, and rolling their eyes to look at the captain on the side.
The captain was creepy.
He immediately pulled out his pistol and fired it at the strange fish, but the bullet hit the strange fish like a stone, leaving only shallow marks.
The strange fish ate people very quickly, and ate most of the crew in a few bites.
The captain had only one thought at the time, and he must not let this strange fish mess with the ship and kill more people.
So he grabbed the latch next to him with all his might, which was used to latch the iron door of the fish cabin, and struck at the strange fish, and drove the strange fish into the fish cabin.
Fortunately, the strange fish is not big, only about fifty centimeters.
