Several people listened quietly to the old man Anglie finished telling the story, and the noise around the cabin did not affect the place, until Anglie asked who was next, and several people reacted.

"It's an interesting story, so it's my turn, I'll tell you about my own experience." Cross said

Aboriginal:

I used to be a member of the Exploration Ship, but before that I was a sailor on a transport ship, which was much safer than a Exploration Ship, and I didn't have to fight and kill or explore the weird islands, but no one would be safe at sea.

At that time, the transport ship I was on transported a batch of fine stones from Shixin Island, ready to be transported to Split Shark Island to sell at a good price, Split Shark Island is also my hometown, and when there were still a few days of voyage from Split Shark Island, an accident happened, I don't know what was huge under the seabed, and I directly knocked the boat overturned, but I was lucky, and I floated to a small island with some supplies and survived.

It was a small nameless island with no markings on the charts, and I thought it was strange that this island was not too far from Rift Shark Island, but why didn't the Governor or explorer discover it?

But I didn't think about it anymore, because I had a fever shortly after I landed on the island, and I was wounded, and there was no medicine for the supplies that came from me, and just as I was about to die, the natives of the island rescued me.

It was a humanoid, with green scales on its body, about the waist of an adult, they didn't seem to have any ill will towards humans, and fed me some herbs and food every day, some of which seemed to want to communicate with me, but I couldn't understand their language, and after a few days, I wanted to recover from my injuries and find a way to leave the island, but things started to go wrong.

The food they began to offer me was some fruits and meats, some of which I could recognize, and the ones I didn't recognize were probably island specialties, which was normal, but one day they actually served me a dish made from their own child, a green-skinned child, but without scales like theirs, and even a little human-like facial features.

I was so frightened that I couldn't help but vomit, and when they saw me like this, they didn't say anything, they just went out with the dish, and when they were gone, I was ready to leave, not wanting to stay on the island anymore.

When I came out of the house they had given me, I found that the natives outside were gone, and I didn't think much about it, so I took the opportunity to walk towards the shore, and when I came to the grove near the shore, I found that not far away the natives were gathering together, dancing and singing, as if performing some kind of ritual.

Just when I was trying to figure out how to get out of here, I suddenly heard a gunshot, I don't know when a steamship came from the sea, the steamboat kept approaching the island, the people on the boat shot at the natives, when the people on the boat went to the island, I saw their appearance clearly, several of them I still know, I read in the newspaper, it was the governor of Split Shark Island and a few officials in the heart of the island, several of them talked and laughed, and shot at the group of natives while walking, and the natives did not resist, but fled everywhere, The men soon entered the grove where I was.

I didn't go up to them for help, I just hid behind a big tree to keep them from spotting me, and then I heard their conversation.

One of the officers said to the Governor

"Lord Doge, it seems that the newly bred hybrids have improved a lot in intelligence, so that you and the other adults can have more fun."

"Well, I don't know what they tasted like, but the indigenous baby I ate last time still had scales on it."

"Don't worry, I've already investigated, and the babies born in the tribe are completely free of scales, and have more human blood on their bodies."

"Alright, you can bring some more people from the prison on Rift Shark Island so that they can continue to bond with the natives here, and the surrounding fleet should step up patrols to keep the Exploration Society and others from discovering here."

"Yes."

I hid behind the trees and waited for a day and a night until they had had enough time and left the island, and then I made a small boat out of the island, and then I left my hometown and went to a far away place to be a sailor on an exploration ship.

"Isn't there the Governor's fleet around that island? You didn't meet them? After listening to Cross's story, Vane asked

"Yes, but that's another story, I'll tell it next time, who is next?" Cross said

"Come to me." Mary said

Strange Pregnant Women:

That was when I was a kid, my hometown was in Ashtree, and my father was a sailor on an exploration ship, and I saw him very rarely, and most of the time it was just me and my mother at home.

My mother had just come back from work that day, and was about to make dinner, when she suddenly heard a knock on the door outside, my mother asked who it was, but no one answered, I looked through the window and saw that it was a woman dressed in black, who looked young, but with a big belly, who looked pregnant, and her face was very pale.

My mother and I didn't dare to open the door, after all, the woman looked strange, and after a while she was gone, and my mother and I just closed the doors and windows of the house and didn't continue to worry about it, and I went to bed after dinner.

In the middle of the night, I heard something from my neighbor next door, it was an old lady's house, his son and my father were on the same boat, in fact, several families on this street had relatives on the same boat as my father, which was also convenient for our family to take care of each other, but at that time I was so sleepy that I fell asleep again.

The next day, there was a knock on my door, and as soon as I got up, I saw what my mother and the members of the security team were saying, and before I could hear it, my mother turned around and went into the house, and after a while she came back with something and gave it to the people at the police station.

I found out that it was a specimen of a creature, which my father had brought back, and it was said to be a strange creature found on an island, and after giving it to them, the people left, and then I asked my mother to find out that the old lady next door and another neighbor had been killed, and their internal organs were gone, and someone saw in the window that it was a woman in black who did it, and that was the pregnant woman who knocked on my door.

She didn't just knock on my door yesterday, there were other people, but some people opened the door, some people didn't, and those who opened the door were killed, and the people who knocked on the door had two things in common, one was that they were all family members of the crew of the exploration ship, and the other was that they all had samples of some kind of biology in their homes, and the samples from the victim's home were gone.

After listening to my mother, I was so glad that I didn't open the door to the woman yesterday, and then I heard rumors that the woman used to be the captain of a certain exploration ship, but disappeared a few years ago, and some people said that the woman had been found, but when she found it, it was already a corpse, and the contents of her stomach were completely emptied.

"Alright, my story is over." Mary said
