Chapter Forty-Three: The Lone Ship at Sea

The sea is still quiet, just like when you came, the sea breeze is gentle, and there are no waves or waves. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoIt has been one day since we left Jubao Island, and we will be able to reach Runzhou in two days. After experiencing great danger, Yan Kaiji and Xing Hongyi sighed that fortunately, Qi Qiang's goal was not himself, otherwise he would be buried on a remote island in the East China Sea, who would take care of many things at home? How to deal with the family's money? On the ship, everyone had no intention of communicating with each other, just wanted to arrive early, get off the boat and go their separate ways. Fortunately, there is a dragon god to witness the whole process of this serial murder, otherwise there will be many annoying things in the future.

"I didn't expect that the next few days would be safe. I didn't think it was going to end there. On the deck, Qin Hexuan, Jing Xinyao and the others were enjoying the shade, and Qin Hexuan sighed.

"Thanks to Mr. Ouyang, we still let us protect it secretly, it may really be unfounded. Jing Xinyao said with a smile.

"Teacher Ouyang should be like me, he always feels that something is wrong, isn't it the responsibility of the detective to keep people safe?" Qin Hexuan said with a smile.

"I also understand the truth, doubt everything, be cautious, is the basic law of hunting. Jing Xinyao said with a smile.

However, Qi Qiang left a letter in the room to explain what happened, and as soon as Qi Qiang died, everything would of course come to an end. Jing Xinyao continued.

"I think there are still doubts in this case, why did you say that Qi Qiang committed suicide suddenly? Suicide is suicide? Why do you use such a strange way of death? And such a precious colorful magic pearl to accompany the burial. Qin Hexuan muttered to himself suspiciously.

"Some things may just be coincidences, and you don't have to think too much about it. Jing Xinyao said with a smile.

Since opening her heart under the starry sky that night, Jing Xinyao seemed to smile more at Qin Hexuan, and the conversation box gradually opened.

"No, if it's me, if I want to commit suicide, I just have to be neat, I won't be so troublesome, and I have to do everything possible to devise my own way of death before I die? Is it necessary?

"You're not him, how do you know what he thinks in his heart? Didn't I hear Mr. Ouyang talk about it in class before, some murderers think that crime is an art, and every time they kill someone, they pursue an artistic realm, maybe Qi Qiang also belongs to this kind of person. Jing Xinyao said with a smile.

"Hey, I guess I'm really thinking too much, anyway, two days later, everyone will go their separate ways, and this matter will be over. However, as soon as these four people died, I don't know how many people would cry for it. Qin Hexuan sighed.

"In fact, Qi Qiang is also a hard-working person, and the real crime should be attributed to the fact that people's hearts are too sinister, and in order to protect themselves, they can do whatever it takes. Jing Xinyao sighed.

The two chatted quietly, looking into the distance side by side.

"Eh, Qingcang?" Out of the corner of Qin Hexuan's eyes, he saw Xia Qingcang walking behind the two of them, and he didn't even come to say hello.

"Huh. It's Hexuan, and Xinyao is also there. Xia Qingcang said.

"Qingcang, what's wrong? Jing Xinyao asked.

"No, there's nothing to do, you talk first, I still have something, go first, don't bother you. After speaking, Xia Qingcang left in a hurry.

He must have seen us just now. Why pretend not to see it? There must be something on mind. Take the time to ask. Qin Hexuan said in his heart.

In the afternoon, the sun was clear, and some of the crew were basking and napping on deck. The helmsman also held the steering wheel and yawned.

Suddenly, there was an earth-shattering bang, and the hull shook violently.

"What's going on?"

"What sound?"

The crowd stepped out of the cabin and asked what had happened.

The voice seemed to be coming from inside the ship. Qin Hexuan frowned tightly and said.

"Not good. ”

At this time, everyone could clearly feel that the hull of the ship was tilting and gradually sinking into the sea.

"Oh no, a huge hole has been blown open in the lower cabin, and the sea is pouring in like crazy. A crew member shouted as he ran out of the cabin like crazy.

"What?" Yan Kaiji had already begun to panic because he couldn't swim.

"Quick, find someone to fix it. The captain immediately made a decision and gave the order.

"No, the hole is too big, the sea is so strong that it can't be repaired, and now the lower cabin is an ocean, and even people can't get in. The crew replied.

"Prepare to abandon ship, everyone, follow the arrangement and enter the lifeboat sampan in an orderly manner. Knowing that the situation was serious, the captain was unequivocal and immediately took the most appropriate arrangement at the moment.

The crew was also well-trained, received instructions, and acted quickly, going to the sides of the ship in pairs to begin releasing the lifeboatsampan.

"Let's go, everyone, slow down, get on the boat in an orderly manner. In a few moments, the lifeboat was lowered from a high place to a parallel part of the deck, and the crew arranged for everyone to board one by one.

"Go away, I'll go first. Suddenly, a man squeezed forward and pushed away the person in front of him.

When I looked closely, it was Yan Kaiji, who couldn't swim. Yan Kaiji jumped into the sampan.

Only a loud crunch was heard, and the bottom board of the sampan was broken, revealing a large hole. Fortunately, Jing Xinyao's eyes were quick and she reached out to grab Yan Kaiji, so that he did not fall into the sea from the hole.

"What's the matter? Your sampan is in disrepair. Yan Kaiji climbed back into the boat and shouted.

"No way, every time we sail, we check all the equipment on the ship, and there is no problem. The captain said firmly.

"Oh no, Captain, the sampan floor here is broken. A crew member came running from the other side.

"It's evil. Who did this pre-voyage inspection?" shouted the captain.

"Don't guess, it's sabotage. Ouyang Jincheng carefully observed the broken plank and said.

"The fractures are neat and uniform, it is done by someone with a sharp weapon, its strength is ingenious, not directly cut off, just leave a little link, once someone jumps in, it will be overwhelmed and broken instantly. The intentions are sinister. Ouyang Jincheng continued.

"What?" the crowd exchanged their heads and discussed.

"Someone wants us to die in the sea. Qin Hexuan sighed, "If my expectations are good, all of this should be done by Qi Qiang." ”

"Qi Qiang, isn't he dead?"

"Yes, can the dead be resurrected to kill?"

"The three of us only saw Qi Qiang jump into the sea, but we didn't see him fall into the sea, how could we see clearly when the rain was so heavy that night? We only saw a bright light falling into the sea. In hindsight, why did Qi Qiang jump off the cliff in front of us with the Colorful Illusion Pearl in his hand? I think it was deliberately for us to see, so that everyone thought that he was really dead, and only the Colorful Illusion Pearl fell into the sea that night, and his true body may be hidden under the cliff. Qin Hexuan speculated.

"The analysis is reasonable, but whether it is right or wrong, I have to ask myself to come out and explain it to you. Master Qi, right?" Ouyang Jincheng shouted loudly with all his internal strength.

"What, Qi Qiang is on the boat?" the crowd exchanged heads.

"The fracture on this lifeboat is as fresh as ever, it must have been cut off within a day, where is the person who did it if it is not among us? Could it be that the sea monster did it?" Ouyang Jincheng said with a smile.

"Hahahaha, the divine capture from Zhongzhou is really a good method, and it is many times stronger than those Yamen's wine bags and rice bags. I saw a person walking out of the crowd, taking off the crew hat and tearing off the human skin mask, it was Qi Qiang.
