Chapter 70: The Facts of the Case

Wren gave the order, and everyone on board, including Haft, had to obey.

The team continued in their previous formation, with Haft leading up front, Walder slightly behind and the rest of the group following.

As for Wren, he told everyone that he had to observe everyone's condition, so he was planted at the end of the line.

The whole ship is not very large, except for the outer deck, there are two floors below, the upper floor is where everyone eats and lives, and the lower floor, most of which is empty, there is only one warehouse, and there are two small empty rooms.

The bodies of the two previous deceased, Captain Dam and a female team member named Ina, were placed in two empty rooms on the ground floor.

So the people were to go down from the captain's cabin on the deck to the bottom floor.

Along the way, Haft was still reeling from the Armored Monsters investigating them, slowing down the delivery a little and allowing himself to walk side by side with Wald.

Then he lowered his voice and said to Wald, "Wald, what are you thinking?" We can't trust a wanted criminal! He said that he was not a murderer, and that was just his own words, and that he was most likely to be the culprit for dozens of lives. Would you rather believe him than me? “

Wald's face stiffened slightly, as he did prefer to believe in the Armor Monster than Haft.

Despite his status, Haft is the glorious captain of the guards at home, while the Armored Monster is a notorious wanted criminal. One is revered, the other is spurned.

But who's to say that the situation is different now. Three people died on the ship in a row, and the most suspicious people were all in the team, but the stranger in armor was the least suspicious, and even Haft was more suspicious than him.

Besides......

Walder looked embarrassed: "Haft, it's not that I don't believe you, but that armor monster is right, he has the biggest fist, we can only listen to him." If we disobey him, who knows what will happen? “

"Then you believe that he will really administer justice? What if he slanders any of us? “

He ...... I ......."

Wald didn't know how to answer the question.

What else can the armored monster do if he casually identifies a person as a murderer?

You agree with him, then what kind of punishment will be given to the person who is designated?

If you don't agree with him, will he be angry and do it to everyone?

Haft continued, "Even so, do you choose to trust the Armor Freaks?" “

Wald's mind is tangled, and the current situation is:

He wanted to believe Haft, but Haft wasn't necessarily worth his trust.

He didn't want to or dare to believe the Armor Monster, but the Armor Monster was probably the most trustworthy.

So he kicked the ball back to Haft: "Then Haft, what do you say?" “

Haft saw that Wald was finally moved by his own words, and his heart was slightly settled.

"My idea is that we'll see what the Armor Monster wants to do later, as long as it's not too much, we should do it, after all, he's a dangerous person. But if he wants to identify us as murderers without evidence, then we must stand up against it. “

"But disobey him......."

Haft gritted his teeth and said, "Even if it is death, it must be opposed!" Wald, think about it, if you were the one who was wronged, and everyone else was silent, would you feel better? “

Wald lowered his head, and after a while he looked up at Haft again and said, "Good! I listen to you. I'm the team leader, I can't let my team members be framed! If you were the one who was framed, Haft, I would have stood up against it! “

"Yes, we should be united!"

.......

After all, it was just a small boat, and although the two leading people were grinding along the way, after walking for four or five minutes, everyone still came to the bilge.

Wren didn't fail to see the two Hafts whispering in front of him, but he didn't bother to care, he was at the back, he was learning about what had happened before with a soldier.

The official expedition had been smooth sailing in the early stages of the expedition, and they had succeeded in finding a lost underwater city.

Just three days ago, however, things were different.

First, a female member of the expedition named Ina was found dead on the deck, after dinner, and the cause of death was a blow to the head.

The person who found the body was Dam, and many people suspected that he was the murderer at that time, but the next morning, Dam was found dead in his room.

Everyone was frightened, and Wald demanded to return immediately, but the sailor told him that the rudder and the other equipment of the captain's room had been destroyed and completely unoperable.

In other words, everyone can only passively wait for rescue - in the case of a murderer on board.

After discussing the countermeasures with Haft, Wald decided to stop the exploration of the ruins, and everyone stayed together and waited for rescue in peace.

Originally, Walder meant that you can't eat or sleep alone, everyone eats together, and when you sleep, you also form a team, two or three people squeeze into a room.

But many people objected, and the people of the expedition, as well as the sailors on the ship, wanted to live with Haft and the others, because he was the strongest.

As for the others, they may be the murderers.

No matter how familiar they were before, no one wants to trust the people around them now, who knows if they will do it at night.

So this suggestion was rejected, and in the end everyone had to lock the door and sleep at night.

During the day, a group of people sit in the dining room in a daze.

But what people didn't expect was that even so, there was still no way to avoid death.

This morning, when it was time to meet in the dining room, the expedition's deputy Aikman did not arrive for a long time, and everyone decided to go and look for it together, and then there was what Wren saw.
