"There's a ghost! There's a female ghost! ”

The elegantly dressed blonde lady with her hair tied in a bun on the other side kept screaming, and her voice was so sharp that it could easily attract more people, which was not good.

Before she could smash the chair down, Esther pulled herself out of the mirror and was free to reassure the lady - Esther's right hand squeezed and stole the blonde's thoughts.

The blonde lady's hand loosened, and as she saw that the chair was about to fall, Esther quickly reached out to take it. However, her "vision" was still in a state of chaos, and her prediction was wrong, and she was still touched by the chair leg on her forehead, leaving small bruises.

Before the blonde could regain consciousness, Esther glanced at the mess and threw two gold pounds at the dresser, then slipped to the door and sprang out, not forgetting to turn her head and give the blonde an apologetic look.

Although the other party will not have a memory even if he sees it.

After several minutes, the blonde lady looked around the room blankly and saw the broken mirrors and perfumes on the floor, and let out another high-pitched scream, which was added to the heart-wrenching curse.

Leaving the queen-sized bedroom where the blonde lady was, Esther walked through a richly decorated living room, and only after her eyes swept over the blue of the closed window did she have an accurate judgment of where she was.

Is this a boat? No wonder I always feel a little shaky, it turns out that it is not the sequelae of traveling through the world in the mirror.

Silently digesting the few memories she had stolen, Esther learned that it was a freighter from South Wales to Pritzport via East Tuckershire, carrying some passengers. In this era when steam trains were more convenient, it was usually only holiday travelers who were not in a hurry to choose the sea route.

The ship will arrive at Plitz Harbor the next morning, according to the established route, and then Esther will find a hotel that does not require identification, and will be able to catch the tarot meeting on Monday afternoon, and there will be no need to ask Mr. "Fool" for leave.

Quickly stepping out of the cabin where someone else lived, she stepped over the soft red carpet that stretched out the corridor, pressed against the wall, and walked down the stairs at the end to the deck.

It seemed that someone heard the lady's scream, and the two sailors' men passed by Esther, and Esther, sensing that someone was approaching, smiled and nodded at them, so the two of them nodded in response to her, glanced at Esther twice, and hurried to the guest room, not paying attention to her.

The moment Esther stepped out of the cabin, the sea breeze swept up in her face, and she could smell the salty smell of the sea.

Such a rare sense that has not been stolen allows Esther to retain the comfort of being in the real world.

Approaching the bulwark at the edge of the deck, which served as a balustrade, Esther could not see the full color of the sea and the splashing waves, but could only imagine the occasional floating line from it.

"Hey, stand back! It's a stormy day! ”

When Esther heard this, she immediately released her hand from the railing like an electric shock, and followed the other party's advice to take two steps back.

The caller came over, and as he looked Esther up and down, Esther also tried to sketch his image in perception:

Light-coloured clothes, middle-aged age, and determined, Esther focused her attention on the gentleman, and could vaguely recognize him wearing an old kitchen hat, and the smell of smoke and fishy came from him, but she could not distinguish the more detailed parts.

The head chef of the "Blue Gull" scratched his beard, which he hadn't shaved for several days, and pretended to be careless, snuffed out the cigarette butt in his hand and threw it out of the ship's side. Noticing that Esther's eyes were still out of focus, the weather-beaten wrinkles on his face gradually unfolded, and his originally stern expression was slightly retracted:

"Are you alright, seasickness?"

Esther laughed embarrassedly and waved her hand, but was completely unable to answer the gentleman's question.

"Are your eyes bad?" The head chef stretched out his hand and shook it twice in front of Esther's eyes, and found that her gaze would not move at all, and couldn't help but ask, "Where is your family?" What are the room sizes? I'm going to call them. ”

Esther pointed to her closed mouth and shook her head vigorously, her blank eyes looking so sad and melancholy that they seemed to be ready to burst into tears.

This inability to communicate made the head chef scratch his beard even more irritably, and he scolded him dryly, then turned to Esther and said, "Then you can at least understand me, right?" Don't wander around here, stay away from the side of the ship! I'm going to call someone. ”

The head chef grumbled indistinctly, and quickly returned to the cabin through another side door.

Asther rubbed her useless eyes, saddened by her current situation, and looked at her left hand, where the remaining black silk of the curse had finally completely dissipated.

The evil spirit that she devoured her fate dissipated into the world, and Esther could only thank "her" from the bottom of her heart.

She tried to crack her mouth, but couldn't move.

Am I going to be like this forever?

Esther stood quietly on the deck, the smell and touch of the sea breeze gradually filling the world in her perception, allowing her to feel the connection to reality to a limited extent.

The "spiritual intuition" in her mind touched again, and Esther blinked, surprised by the news that Zoya had told her:

Monday afternoon? Why was it restored at that time, because the tarot would? Can Mr. 'Fool' help me!?

Esther resisted the urge to pray to the Fool now, at least until she found a secret spot in Pritz Harbor, and she had to find a way to restore the depleted point of light.

Until now, Esther's hair remained silvery, and she knew in her heart that the power she had expended in the Great Smog of Beckland was far beyond the limits of what she could drive.

If it weren't for Zoya's willingness to help, I don't know what would have happened. Esther's finger tapped on her forehead.

I don't know how Klein is doing now, but he's probably disappointed in me...... What about Bunny and Jayne? I don't know how much the smog will affect and how many people will suffer.

Esther couldn't help but think of Xiao Wu and Xiao Qi, she pressed her right eyebrow hard and chuckled.

A little sad.

——

A few minutes later, the head chef quickly walked back to the deck with a few others, and Esther could hear him shouting angrily from afar:

"How can there be such a bullshit family? The storm would not approve of such an act! Such a weak girl! Even if you find an ordinary family to marry, isn't it better than throwing her on a boat? This is leaving her to fend for herself, which can be described as murder! ”

"Okay, old Jack, be quiet, I'm not old enough to be behind my ears."

The man in the prime of life at the head has short inch-long hair, a boat-shaped hat on top, the hair of his sideburns is blue-black, his thick eyebrows are almost connected because of wrinkles, and his facial features are resolute, even if there are slight wrinkles, they look like annual rings left with a carving knife.

Even with a heavy gray-black coat, you can see that his arms and shoulder blades bulge because of their muscles, and his inky eyes are quite bright, giving people a clear sense of oppression.

If you change your outfit and say that this captain is a pirate, many people will believe it.

The captain has a distinct sea breeze on him.

He walked up to Esther first, first politely straightened his hat, and then realized that the lady would most likely not be able to see the hat salute, and lowered his arm again.

"Can you speak?"

Esther shook her head repeatedly, gesturing twice around her mouth and eyes.

The stout captain also looked embarrassed, and he sighed: "Alas, I am Reeves Black, the captain of the 'Blue Gull'. ”

Esther nodded, indicating that she understood.

"The crew did notice last night that three people sneaked aboard while we were moving goods. But before we could split up and drive them away, they went down on their own, and that's probably when you were brought up. ”

"Huh?"

Esther was a little surprised, why didn't she have time to make up a complete story background, and fate arranged it herself?

Reeves thought about it for a moment, and then suggested the way he had considered dealing with it before: "In this way, we can arrange an empty room for you, okay?" ”

Esther nodded repeatedly, pulled out a few Sules from her satchel, and gestured blankly at the captain, looking at him suspiciously.

"Do you have any money with you? But you're ...... Do you have enough money left? ”

Esther nodded vigorously.

Reeves took Esther's several soles of notes and found that there were about fifteen soles, and that the cost of two days' food for the young woman was about the same as a halfway ticket. Reeves was too lazy to care more, this woman couldn't see and couldn't speak, it was a big trouble, and he didn't want to care about it.

Anyway, when she arrived at Prydz Harbor and sent her ashore, whatever she went to do, even if anything happened, it had nothing to do with the "Blue Gull". As long as she didn't interfere with the ship's voyage and arrived at Plitz Harbor for handover, Reeves didn't care if there was such a half-blind passenger on board.

"Okay, then David, you take this lady to the room of Forty Seven."

Esther gave a skirt salute to the people opposite, and the old Jack shook his head with a sigh: "This world, bah! ”

David was a much younger midshipman, with short blond hair thrown up and a round face with a bit of baby fat, but he was already quite tall. Although the young man was more than half a head taller than Esther, Esther felt that he was even younger than her physical age, about seventeen years old.

"Yes! Captain! I'll take her there! ”

Esther followed the young man, gesturing to refuse his invitation to help her down the stairs, and although she still saw something strange and chaotic, she had grown accustomed to such a state and was adept at discerning the environment.

Strangely, she seemed to smell something.

Esther sniffed again, and David, who was leading the way, was unaware of it, but enthusiastically introduced her to the configuration of the second-class cabin. Because this ship, which was mainly used to carry cargo, did not have a third-class cabin, which was a narrow room with a common lavatory, most of which had no windows, and were not as comfortable as the first-class and had a separate lavatory.

But as Esther followed David down the stairs, she faintly smelled something that made her sick to her stomach, almost bloody, but even sweeter.

She had sensed a similar smell on the island, coming from the "heart" that was sealed in a tin box.

There's something unusual about this ship.

Ahhh......h
