Chapter 82: Masquerade
"Who are these two people, and what do they need on board?"
Serena asked.
Shi Jing shook her head, "I really don't know the specifics. I had been asleep under the effect of the anesthetic, and it was only after I woke up that I eavesdropped on this passage as if I didn't know. ”
"They seem to come from an organization called U, which believes in the Cult of Doomsday. I want to drag everyone to hell. It's probably a cult. ”
Serena nodded, "Okay, I see." ”
Shi Jing's words reminded her.
In addition to them, there was also a group of people from the army who were on board today, and they seemed to have transported something onto the ship.
Could it be that this organization is for the army?
The stakes were high, and she had to tell her grandfather quickly.
Serena looked at Shi Jing, "Then what do you do now?" Can it still be transformed? It's not safe here, so I'll get out of here with you. ”
Shi Jing nodded, "My ability is that I have five opportunities to change my body in a day, and I have already used it up three times. And two more. However, the more you use it, the shorter it lasts. The fourth time, it can last about 20 minutes. ”
Serena: "That's good. ”
She took Shi Jing, who had turned into a fluffy bumblebee, to the hall where everyone gathered.
The bumblebee was attached to her hair, looking like some kind of fluffy ornament, apparently unnoticed.
That is, until Michael came over, holding a cocktail and sipping his drink through a straw.
"Serena, where did you just go, did you find anything wrong?"
Serena's expression was natural, "I checked the surroundings just now and didn't find any problems. It's been fifty minutes since the homicidal trailer on the radio, and they haven't moved a bit. I guess it's just a farce. ”
Michael stopped and raised his lips mysteriously, "Not necessarily. This kind of cunning nature may be that he wants to hide quietly in the dark after the trailer, and wants to observe the panicked expression of the hunter, just like a game of cat and mouse. ”
"Oh, really?"
Serena also took a clean tray from the table next to her and began to pick up something to eat.
Except for them, everyone around was very anxiously chattering around and didn't have any appetite, so there were only the two of them at the table.
Michael also took some barbecue and seafood, "I heard that there are also people with abilities on the boat, do you know?" ”
"The Adept?" Serena pretended not to understand and shrugged her shoulders deliberately, "Are you dreaming?" What kind of supernatural beings, this is something that only appears in science fiction. ”
A smile crossed Michael's lips: "Not necessarily. You look at the recent natural disasters, torrential rains, typhoons, tsunamis, as well as earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, and all the countries on the planet are not immune. Even if the government organizes a rescue forcefully, this kind of disaster is a catastrophe for ordinary people. ”
Serena took a bite of the cut mousse, "What do you mean?" ”
Michael evoked a mysterious smile: "Haven't you seen the discussion on the Internet?" These disasters are not only temporary, there will be disasters in the future, and the ability is given to human beings, that is, God is choosing his own spokesman in the world, and those with the ability are the lucky ones who are chosen, so that they can be qualified to survive in the natural disasters. ”
Serena wanted to refute him, what kind of fallacy was this.
But she just frowned, "It's probably related to probability, maybe it has something to do with genetic mutations or something." But I don't think it's necessarily true, and even if there are supernatural abilities, I can't necessarily see it. ”
Michael took a sip of his drink, "What if, the killer on the radio is the one with the ability?" ”
He approached Serena and looked into her bun, "Do you think it's possible?" ”
Serena seemed to be enraged by his recklessness and shoved him back, "Michael, what do you want to do?" ”
Michael's eyes were dark, as if he was staring at her with bottomless eyes, and Serena just glared back at him angrily, "Although I have promised you to be my boyfriend, I just look at you as pitiful, if you are self-inflicted, don't blame me for beating you." ”
As she spoke, she seemed to be really planning to roll up her sleeves and really get started.
The old butler on the side walked up and pulled away the young couple who wanted to quarrel.
He coughed softly: "Miss, this is still a public place, please pay attention to your speech and behavior." ”
Sure enough, all the people who had gathered in the hall had their eyes on them.
Although they were all members of the cruise ship and there were no passengers, Serena still blushed for a moment.
Unconsciously, the quarrel between the two actually attracted so much attention.
Michael chuckled lightly and said, "I'm sorry, it was just my personal conjecture." Serena is so cute, I just want you to tease you, don't be angry. ”
He stepped forward again and saw the bumblebee headdress in her hair, "Your hair ornament is especially cute today. ”
Serena sneered at him, "Hmph, if you want to bully me, then I have to tell grandpa." ”
As she spoke, she put on her little leather shoes and ran away.
Michael just looked like he was staring at her back for a moment and didn't immediately catch up.
Serena ran out of the hall, only to realize that she was in a cold sweat.
When she met Michael, she vaguely felt that something was wrong, Michael was allergic to alcohol, did not like cocktails, only liked to drink juice.
And he never gave her so much nonsense. There was also the matter of the Adept, the two had already discussed it before, and he definitely wouldn't ask again.
What does this mean, even if they look the same, it will never be the real Michael.
Did he approach her on purpose, or did he come for Shi Jing?
At this time, Shi Jing suddenly began to speak, "He should be coming for me, there will be some kind of induction between the superpowers." I'm too weak now, so he should be a little aware that those words are testing you. ”
Sure enough, Serena breathed a sigh of relief.
What did she think: "Then what is the ability of the Adeptus just now, is it really a change of form?" I feel like he should be capable of more than that? ”
Shi Jing said: "That's right. His power is possession. He should be possessed by this original body now, and your classmate should be fine now. But if you really want to make a move, you must find his body. Otherwise, only the person who has been possessed by him will be harmed, and as long as his body is not destroyed, he will not be in any danger. ”
