Chapter 458: The Mistaken Coincidence
Wrapped in a gray scarf, carrying a suitcase in his left hand and a delicate and sturdy black solid wood cane in his right hand, Crane appeared alone in the harbor.
The White Onyx is one of the more advanced ships of our time, with two power systems, chimneys and sails, guns on both sides of the ship, and sturdy sailors wearing lances and revolvers, all of which show the passengers the safety of the journey.
In this pirate-infested sea, safety is the number one priority.
It is precisely for this reason that Crane chose this relatively expensive passenger ship, in order to ensure the smooth sailing, he has only one thought: don't make any mistakes!
After checking the ticket, he stepped onto the deck easily, and before he had time to observe his surroundings, he immediately noticed a figure passing through the crowd and walking towards him.
Crane, who was immediately vigilant, looked over and found that the other party was a little familiar, it turned out to be the former adventurer he met when he bought a ticket yesterday, and now he was working as a bodyguard.
After a brief conversation, Crane realized that the other party was here to "draw territory", suggesting that he should not cause trouble.
"Hehe, I never want to cause trouble, but trouble always likes to follow me, who is going to reason with this!"
Crane sneered, and with a few steps, he thought about walking into the cabin, thinking about putting his luggage down first, and then taking a look at the sea.
Unfortunately, his footsteps suddenly stopped in mid-air, because he realized that his spirituality had been slightly touched.
Looking in the direction of spiritual fluctuations, there was a young lady in a floral dress standing next to the railing, with long black and silky hair draped over her shoulders, a slender figure, and an elegant posture.
"Wait, she's fishing?"
Crane discovered the source of his fluctuation, which was a thin thread wrapped around the woman's finger, which shimmered in the sunlight for a moment.
This...... It looks familiar! Damn, this isn't the invisible silk thread of the "witch"!
Crane, who had had several encounters with the "witch", quickly recognized her.
"Isn't it, that's where the trouble comes? How could I be so unlucky! ā
Crane was startled, and his heart was also bitter, and then he suddenly noticed that the back by the railing seemed to have some familiar feeling.
Perhaps it was his gaze that caught the lady's attention, causing the latter to slowly turn around, revealing a face that was delicate enough to make people feel stunning.
The male passengers on the surrounding decks, who were more or less paying attention to this side, even let out a suppressed small exclamation, as evidenced by this.
But Crane couldn't help but be amazed, because he was no stranger to this lady's appearance, wasn't this Miss "Power", how could she be on this ship?
Could it be that she really chose the same way of passage as herself, and on the same day, she even chose the same boat as herself!
There won't be such a coincidence, is it?
But the control range of "0-08" is only the size of a city!
In addition, Miss "Force" obviously has some resistance to "0-08", and if she is manipulated, she should find out.
What's more, he is now Gelman Sparrow!
yes, I'm not Sherlock now, and I'm not Crane, Miss Power doesn't know me...... If you get off the ship and leave now, it will be tantamount to not admitting yourself.
Thinking of this, Crane pretended to have a similar expression as the people around him, as if he was amazed by Miss Power's beauty, and then quickly regained his composure, nodded gentlemanly to Miss Power, and then walked towards the interior of the cabin.
It's just that Crane's heart is not calm, because he saw that Miss "Power" actually responded to him, with a mysterious smile on the corner of her mouth.
She won't recognize herself, will she? With this apprehension, Crane turned sideways and made way for the three young ladies who were approaching him and were about to step onto the deck.
156nā 156n
Perhaps each of the individual ladies is not as attractive as Miss "Power", but the three ladies also have their own merits, forming a beautiful landscape.
And what is even more shocking is that these three young ladies actually walked in the direction of Miss "Power".
Crane stopped no longer, turned and walked into the cabin, finding his room.
............
Above deck, Louise leaned lightly against the railing, with the blue sea behind her, the wind blowing the waves against the hull and swaying the sails slightly.
"Miss, are you looking at the scenery?" Sophia stood beside Louise, looked at the endless sea, and casually sighed: "It's true that I haven't seen the sea for a long time." ā
Louise chuckled and replied:
"No, I'm fishing."
"Fishing?" Sophia turned around, looked around, and asked curiously, "Where are the fish?" ā
Louise tilted her head, glanced at the maid, and said with a light smile:
"It's over, the fish has taken the bait."
Sophia was puzzled, but she quickly put aside her doubts and asked:
"Will we have a chance to go home this time back to Byam?"
"Yes." Louise replied with certainty, then turned to the maid, and said:
"But you have, I can't go back yet."
Sophia was silent for a moment before she said:
"Forget it, let's go and join Mr. Hunter."
Louise smiled, didn't say anything more, and turned her gaze to the interior of the cabin, which was separated by thick walls.
"I wonder what Crane is thinking right now? You don't want to run away, do you? She guessed amusefully.
Byam's destination has long been decided, and there are no long-haul airliners in this world, so the only way to choose is by ship.
As for why he and Crane happened to buy tickets for the same ship, it was naturally Louise who did it on purpose.
Most of the coincidences are due to the ill-intentioned intentions of one party.
Of course, Louise wasn't going to do anything to Crane just for fun.
The trip would last nearly a week, and it would be too boring to just sail the sea, so Louise needed to have some fun, and Crane was lucky to be chosen.
In addition, Louise was well aware that Crane's trip had not been a big twist or turn, except that there were some unprovoked dangers when she docked at Bansey Harbor.
Louise was not afraid of this, and even subconsciously, this was a big reason why she chose this passenger ship.
A few months ago, the passenger ship she was on from Byam to Beckland also docked once at the port of Bansey.
At that time, she suddenly felt a faint sense of rejection, I don't know where it came from, but Louise didn't have a very clear understanding of herself at that time, so she cautiously didn't get off the boat to explore.
This time, she wanted to figure out the cause of the rejection, and of course, all actions needed to be carried out under the premise of ensuring her own safety.
As for Crane, he's already a very good tool......
