Mysterious Catastrophe
Page 229
The reason why I didn't use 'Spirit World Teleportation' was mainly to pass the time.
Since the encounter with his last promotion, Aaron has decided to keep a low profile.
Whether it is to evade detection or help Motura become a god, you need enough reserves and ammunition.
Therefore, it is very important to hibernate for a period of time and accumulate enough 'secret source power' to overturn the table.
Ocean sailing in this era is a good way to pass the time. It often takes a few months or half a year to take a ferry.
The second reason is to inquire about the 'Rancher', after all, it's his month now, and 'Lord of the Deep Sea Monster' is his most proud work.
'The real 'Damo' may be comparable to or even stronger than Motura, beyond the limits of the earthly world, and obviously exists in the deep sea of the spirit world...but the children and subordinates of 'Damo' must also be active in the dark sea we...'
"Speaking of which, I still have a spell made by the pollution of the 'Dama Statue' in my hand. Unfortunately, it only has the sixth level of essence. I can't make a final decision against a 'His Majesty', but it is quite good for cleaning up miscellaneous fish. ...Especially above the deep sea, there may be unexpected effects. '
He was in the long queue until the ticket window.
"Hello, may I have..."
The young girl in the window looked at Aaron with amazement in her eyes.
Uh……
At this time, although Aaron restrained the appearance of a "perfect person", he disguised himself a bit, with dark golden curly hair, blue eyes like the sea, and a high nose bridge. He looked about [-] years old, full of youthful vitality, and good-looking Pretty good!
When Aaron squeezed his face, he unconsciously brought in a bit of the appearance of the hero of a certain big ship movie from his previous life.
"Hi, may I help you?"
The ticket girl smiled brightly, and deliberately turned her face to the side to cover up the small mole on the other cheek.
"I want to buy a boat ticket to South Indonesia, here is my identity document!"
Aaron didn't hand over the identity documents through the "Green Banyan Council" channel, but found another black market businessman to handle them.
"Mr. Jack Cossini... There are currently two passenger ships in the port, one is the 'Ross', which is still the holder of the 'Blue Ribbon', and the sailing date is five days later, and the other is the giant luxury liner 'St. Margaery', departing in three days."
The conductor lady answered with a sweet voice.
"'St. Margaery'!"
'Blue Ribbon' is a horse racing tradition, in the ocean voyage, the ship with the shortest time to cross the ocean can tie the blue ribbon to the mast as a proof of honor.
But Aaron is here to pass the time, not to rush, but to be comfortable.
"Ok."
The female conductor continued to introduce in a sweet voice: "'St. Margaret', the first-class fare is 30 pounds, and the suite ticket is 500 pounds. First-class passengers can enjoy swimming pools, gyms, squash courts, sunbathing decks, pet dormitory and other facilities. ...The second-class fare is 10 pounds, you can enjoy the smoking room, library, and big bar, the third-class ticket is 5 pounds, six people per room, children's ticket is 3 pounds..."
According to Jack Cossini's personality, he is a wandering art painter who inherited a fortune from his distant uncle, so Aaron smiled brightly: "I only have one person, and it is obviously too extravagant and wasteful to live in a suite." , please give me a first-class ticket."
As he spoke, he handed over a 30-pound note.
"One first-class ticket!" The lady conductor's smile became brighter and brighter: "I like art and oil painting, and my dream was to become a model..."
While speaking, she handed over the bills and documents.
Along with the receipt, there is also a small note.
"I don't mind being a part-time model after get off work, with no clothes on..."
She is no longer hinting, but expressing.
Aaron returned a bright smile and turned away from the ticket gate.
night.
In the port bar.
Aaron found out more about the 'St. Margaery'.
For example, it is famous for its luxury enjoyment, even the environment of the third-class cabin is superior to that of the second-class cabin of other ships.
It can carry a total of 4000 passengers including seafarers at one time, and the speed is not slow, which can reach 20 knots.
Moreover, the ship has just been launched, and this is the first grand voyage.
The more Aaron listened, the more dignified his expression became.
……
Three days passed quickly, and finally it was the day when the 'Saint Margaery' set sail.
On June 6th, Aaron was wearing a white shirt, a beret, carrying a drawing board, and carrying a suitcase, and followed the flow of people onto the 'Saint Margaery' moored at the port.
This behemoth is nearly 300 meters long, 30 meters wide, and 30 meters high, with a displacement of 5 tons and four huge chimneys 20 meters high.
Humans standing in front of it are like ants in front of an elephant.
After checking the tickets, Aaron couldn't help laughing when he saw the luxurious environment around him: "Fortunately, I didn't meet a rich lady named Rose."
"Ms. Helen Candy, welcome aboard the St. Margaery!"
At this time, another passenger behind him began to check the ticket.
One of them was a young woman with long golden hair, a gorgeous hat with a feather in it, and a corseted lace dress, followed by many servants.
"Thank you!"
Helen thanked her gracefully, and told the handsome servant beside her, "Kent...don't forget my luggage and the orange cat cage."
Aaron paused: "No, this boat is going to sink!" '
Chapter 389
St. Margaery.
First class cabin.
Aaron glanced at the not-so-small bedroom, bathroom, cloakroom, and guest room for the servants, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Ordinary first-class cabins are so luxurious, what kind of scenery should the suite look like? Is it a palace?"
He put the decorative drawing board and suitcase into the cloakroom, and lay down on the sofa, feeling his body being lifted softly, he couldn't help sinking his whole body into it, and sighed contentedly.
"This trip is considered a vacation...Speaking of which, although I was an earl, needless to say the material supplies at that time, I was also just a lower class in my previous life...I really can't imagine the happiness of the rich. .”
"The rest will be discussed in South Indonesia..."
Before, according to the conversation with Motura, the other party also gave some information.
For example - the 'Keeper of Secrets' seems to be focusing on the colony, and the 'Historical Research Association' has also developed a force in the world and is active in South Indonesia.
"Besides, the colonial rebels and voodoo are also worth noting..."
"Forget it, forget about it, go to the bar and have a good time!"
The largest bar on the Santa Margaery is only open to first and second class passengers.
In addition to the servants of the first-class passengers, the people living in the second-class cabin are mainly doctors, lawyers, teachers and other middle-class people.
As for the third-class passengers?There are actually a lot of places that are inaccessible on this luxury vacation liner.
……
Long travel life is always boring.
Therefore, places such as bars, swimming pools, and libraries have become good places for many people to have fun.
The passenger ship bar, at a small round table.
Aaron took a seat, with a glass of gin and tonic in front of him, and an entertainment tool similar to playing cards in his hand.
During this period of time, he smoothly integrated into the social circle of the St. Margaery and formed his own small circle.
"Queen!"
He played a queen card and looked at a man in his thirties who was wearing a brown formal suit and had two beautiful mustaches: "Kane, you said you heard about that lady?"
"Of course... How can such a beautiful lady live in an expensive first-class suite without making people curious?"
Kane is a senior lawyer who goes to the colony to handle business for a client. He is not that meticulous in normal times, but loves to joke.
Invensys uses a law that is partial to the maritime law system. A lawyer with outstanding eloquence will bring a lot of benefits to the client, so all the lawyers who can appear in court here are eloquent.
"Then... barrister, tell us quickly."
The eyes of Dr. Paul on the left are shining. He is a surgeon. He originally opened a small clinic by himself, but he created a big accident—he moved too fast when performing an amputation operation on a patient. The patient bled to death due to treatment, and accidentally injured the surgical assistant next to him, and also frightened a rich man who bought a ticket crazy...
Although he spent all his wealth and hired a barrister to act as a relationship, he finally avoided prison, but his doctor's license was inevitably revoked.
At this time, he was destitute and ready to go to the New World to try his luck. It is said that the 'witch doctor' there does not need a medical license.
Of course, these are the secrets obtained by Aaron through special means. Paul declared to the public that it was because of the scandal with his nurse that he was messed up, so he went to the New World to hide.
Aaron's evaluation of him is that, as a wine and meat friend, except for some lewdness and poor medical skills, other aspects are pretty good.
"Paul, I advise you not to think about it, it's hopeless..."
Kane shook his head and said with a smile: "That Miss Helen Candy follows his mother's surname."
"Mother's last name?"
Bot, the last tall, thin and pale young man at the poker table, wondered, "Could it be that she is an illegitimate daughter of disrepute? But her style doesn't match the scale of her trip..."
"It is indeed an illegitimate daughter, but she is the illegitimate daughter of an earl, and she is very favored." Kane gave the answer: "This time she brought so many servants and nuns, she is going to Colonial married."
"Oh, my goddess..." Paul exaggeratedly covered his heart: "I'm so sad...disgusting political marriage!"
"The performance is a bit exaggerated." Aaron took a sip of his wine and commented lightly.
"Although it is a political marriage, Miss Candy's fiancé was carefully selected by the earl. He is a young military officer in the colony. It is said that he is handsome and has made great military achievements. He is a young man with a bright future." Kane sighed.
"How did you find out about this kind of news?" Bot asked curiously.
"Miss Candy has too many entourages to fit in the suite. Some of the servants live in the second-class cabin, which happens to be next door to me."
Kane explained the reason with a smile: "However, this Miss Candy's reputation is not very good. It is said that she is very arrogant and rude, without the demeanor of a real lady of high society... The most important thing is..."
Kane lowered his voice: "It is said that His Excellency the Earl gave a dowry of [-] pounds!"
"Ten thousand pounds?"
Paul let out an exclamation, his expression could not hide his jealousy: "It would be great if I were that fiance."
"Then I'm afraid you have to lose weight first, and then you will be 20 years younger." Aaron played the last card: "This wins me."
"Too cunning."
"You're taking the opportunity to get our attention."
Bot yelled a few words, and finally obediently took out a few silver shillings.
Aaron noticed that although he did not show his envy and jealousy like Paul, the eagerness in his eyes could not be hidden no matter what.
However, people in this era are not ashamed of chasing wealth and power.
"I just hope he doesn't think about being a bad face and seducing that illegitimate daughter to elope..."
Aaron lit a cigar for himself. It is said that these top-grade golden cigars are all rolled out of the thighs of beautiful female slaves in the tobacco plantations in South Indonesia.
But in his view, it's just an advertiser's gimmick.
While swallowing the clouds, Aaron also thought calmly in his heart:
"My premonition is right, the ship is going to be destroyed..."
'However, it's really hard to say the cause of the shipwreck. Although the name of Ms. Helen Candy is somewhat similar to the real name of a survivor of the shipwreck... But I feel that the biggest unstable factor is myself. '
"If I study the 'Damo Talisman' here and attract a large number of giant sea monsters, this ship will definitely be doomed..."
At this time, Kane's voice came from his ear: "The annoying guy is here, huh? He's pestering that Miss Ten Thousand Pounds!"
Chapter 390 Contract
The 'nasty guy' was named Britz, the second son of a merchant family.
This time he was ordered to go to South Indonesia to manage a plantation, which sounds a bit like being assigned.
For this reason, his mood was not very good.
Later, he met Aaron, Kane and others at the poker table, and some small conflicts broke out, because he refused to pay the money after losing the bet, and showed jealousy towards Aaron...
Any small circle has a leader, but Bot, Paul and others default to Aaron as the leader because he lives in first class.
Well, the reason for the upper rank is so simple and unpretentious.
