Shooting the sun from the three-body

Chapter 21 Suspicion Chain

It's a thunderstorm.

At the same time, it is also a catastrophe.

The bottom of the ship has been dug through, and seawater is constantly pouring into the ship.

Five assassins hidden in the depths of the ship have already started to act. They know that the ship has entered the water, but they are not afraid at all.

This time, in order to kill Xiao Yi and restore the reputation of their Assassin Alliance, they had already made preparations to die together.

There are not many people like them in modern times.

They are all people who regard death as home, which is even worse than the death squads in history. The reason why they are not afraid of death is because of their deep hatred for human beings.

They hate humans and think they are hopeless.

And the Three-Body Civilization came to purify human beings just what they wanted to see, but, unexpectedly, a Xiao Yi and a sun-shooting bow were born.

At this moment, their task is to kill Xiao Yi completely, and then let the Sun Shooting Bow completely sink into the sea!
The five assassins dispatched together, they did not intend to give Xiao Yi the slightest chance of surviving.

There are other crews who have started sabotaging the ship, destroying the lifeboats, and the scale of this mission is unprecedented.

In addition to the five highly skilled assassins, there are more than a dozen logistics personnel lurking on the ship, and they also treat death like home!
Let's die together, Xiao Yi!

Xiao Yi shuddered suddenly, he felt something was wrong, a burst of cold ran around his spine, which made him extremely uncomfortable and made him restless.

There is a situation!
Xiao Yi heard footsteps.

Someone hurried to the door of his room.

Xiao Yi, who has practiced the "Small Tuna Technique", has a very keen sense of hearing.

Xiao Yi held the seal with both hands, ready to print the golden light seal at any time, but suddenly a voice that made Xiao Yi feel familiar came from outside the door.

"It's me, Ding Yi, open the door quickly, I have something to tell you."

Xiao Yi walked over, opened the door carefully, and then saw Ding Yi with an anxious face.

"The ship is tilting at a rate of 0.18 degrees per second, and the rate of tilting is still accelerating. This is a sign of water entering the ship!"

Xiao Yi frowned, and he asked: "There is no announcement on the radio?"

"No, I called the captain's cabin, but there was no response!"

Xiao Yi remained calm, he said: "It's ETO's assassins, they finally came!"

The turbulent Pacific Ocean is an excellent place to start. If the ship sinks, Xiao Yi will be buried in the deep sea, and no one can find the Sun Shooting Bow.

"We have to find the lifeboat as soon as possible!" Ding Yi was very anxious, "We are running out of time. The ship will sink completely within 3 minutes at most."

Xiao Yi asked, "Have you seen the Colonel?"

Ding Yi said: "The colonel seems to have gone to the captain's room, but we can't get in touch with the captain's room. Could it be that the assassin has already"

"Professor Ding, you go find the lifeboat, and I'll go find the senior colonel."

Xiao Yi picked up the Sun Shooting Bow, then ran the "Iron Refining Breathing Method", and went straight to the captain's room at the fastest speed.

Ding Yi was extremely anxious, but he still thought calmly in his heart: If I were an assassin, I would definitely get rid of the captain first, then dig a big hole in the bottom of the tanker, and then destroy all the lifeboats. There is no point in finding the lifeboats now !

I can only bet!

Bet someone is not willing to die with us!
The Three-Body Civilization did not thoroughly study the human nature of the people on Earth, because they are transparent in thinking, and they will not suspect each other.

But humans are different, no one knows what others are thinking.

This is the chain of suspicion.

We've all been taught to be honest with others, but we're not [-]% sure that the people we meet will be honest with us.

And because sincere people are deceived by insincere people, we become cautious in our words and actions.

Because we are sincere and can treat others honestly, but we cannot be hurt by others because of our sincerity, so we must be careful.

This is the price of being sincere.

On the other hand, some people are looking for such sincere people and then deceive them to gain benefits.

This is the job of the Wallfacers, to deceive the Trisolaran civilization and honest people.

And on this small ship, such a situation will definitely exist.

Although most people in ETO have plans to die with Xiao Yi and the others, but no one can guarantee that someone will hide the lifeboat.

And as long as such an idea is born, these people will hide the lifeboat.

Because they would think: I can perish together with Xiao Yi, but if someone secretly hides the lifeboat and is unwilling to perish together, then wouldn’t it mean that I can’t use it?
They are not completely sure that someone has hidden a lifeboat, but they will definitely suspect that someone has hidden a lifeboat. In order to leave alive, I might as well hide a lifeboat.

Such thoughts instantly spread to the minds of all ETO logistics personnel.

Ding Yi's bet was right. People's joys and sorrows are not the same, and people can't understand each other.

So, someone still hid the lifeboat.

And just when Ding Yi was thinking about this and was eagerly looking for the hidden lifeboat, Xiao Yi was also attacked.

His steps were light, touching the ground silently, moving forward like a wild cat, and when he turned a corner in the cabin, Xiao Yi met the assassin of ETO.

There are a total of five ETO assassins. They did not act collectively, but acted separately, because the assassins originally acted alone. Their purpose was twofold. One was to find Xiao Yi and report to others, and the second was to kill Xiao Yi. Drop Xiao Yi.

And even if Xiao Yi can't be killed, Xiao Yi must be held back so that he can't escape from the ship in time.

The five were not in the same group at the moment, and their routes were completely different. Three of the assassins went to Xiao Yi's residence, while one assassin was lying in ambush on the only way to the captain's room.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Yi really came.

"Xiao Yi, I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

The moment this man said these words, Xiao Yi knew that he was the assassin who came to assassinate him.

So Xiao Yi formed the seal with the fastest speed, and then shot the golden light seal at the assassin.

The assassin didn't understand the situation. He thought Xiao Yi would use the magic bow, but Xiao Yi made a weird gesture to him.

"Do you think you are a ninja?" The assassin mistakenly thought it was a ninja's ninjutsu. After all, the ninja culture of country R has spread all over the world.

"This is a serious Taoism!"

Xiao Yi shot the golden light seal, and a golden light that ordinary people couldn't see suddenly shot out, and then it was printed on the assassin's chest.

In the next second, the assassin's face changed drastically. He only felt that his mind and soul were separated, and his soul was directly pushed out of his body by a huge force.

Then, the golden flame began to burn his soul continuously, which made him miserable.

"what!"

The assassin's soul shouted, but no one could hear him, his body suddenly fell to the ground, and then lost his vital signs.

No one knows what happened, not even Tomoko.
