"You mean that the incident that the crew once discovered this ghost ship was also fabricated?"

Ji Han shook his head and said:

"It is not yet confirmed whether anyone has discovered this ghost ship, but judging from the current signs on the ship, it is still the same as it was when we encountered the situation. There must be something wrong here, everyone should be careful."

When Ji Han and the six came out of the captain's room, everyone re-checked the yacht tied to the side, and confirmed that there was nothing wrong with the yacht and the ropes.

Although the Maris Leicester they were on could also sail, but Ji Han and the others didn't want to take risks with this weird ship.

The entrance to the crew cabin and cargo room is on the aft side of the center.

Push open the old-fashioned wooden door, revealing a three-meter-wide corridor.

The corridor turned a corner diagonally downward, and through the stairs in the corridor, it can be seen that there are at least two floors below.

According to the judgment of Eggplant and Walter just now, the upper floor should be the crew room, and the lower floor should be the cargo hold.

The six of them were still exploring at the [-]nd substation. Walter, who was at the front, carefully pushed open the hatch of the crew room, followed by a sour body odor.

Eggplant complained:

"Hey, it feels like my rhinitis is gone."

Ji Hanxin said that this was much stronger than the smell in his own dormitory, nodded and said:

"At least it proves that there is nothing wrong with what is written in the logbook. This ship must have been sailing at sea for a long time. Let's go in and have a look."

There was only white light coming in from the windows, so the light in the crew room was a little insufficient, and everyone turned on the flashlights they had prepared.

As soon as they entered, everyone saw a large wooden table with unfinished bread and jam. It could be seen that when something happened to the ship, everyone was having breakfast.

The bread and jam were the same as those seen in the cab, without any sign of spoilage, as if someone had just eaten them.

Some people's coats were still thrown on the chairs, and it was obvious that they were in a hurry when they left.

Further inside is a simple wooden bed, the fabric covered on it can no longer see its original color.

The innermost piles are the daily necessities of the crew. Although it looks a bit messy, it can be seen that there is indeed a breath of life.

Although not very hopeful about this place, Ji Han still suggested:

"Everyone simply check to see if there are any relevant clues."

After searching for about ten minutes, everyone retreated. Eggplant rubbed his hands on his clothes and complained:

"There is nothing but first-hand oil. At that time, these crew members were considered to be the bottom of society. It is estimated that few of them were literate, and the living conditions were really dirty."

Chen Ke continued:

"Not bad, I didn't find a single living cockroach when it was so dirty, but I found some dead cockroaches under the plates on the dining table."

Song Qian was also a little puzzled when she heard this:

"It stands to reason that the crew's cabin is so dirty, and some cockroaches and flying insects are normal. But there is so much food on the table, and the ship has been empty for so long, shouldn't it be that the plates are full of cockroaches?

Could it be that there is something wrong with this breakfast, it is poisonous here?Those crew members had hallucinations after eating, so they jumped into the sea and died? "

Ji Han shook his head and said:

"Don't make wild guesses. Although the crew room is a bit dirty, these things are neatly placed. If someone has hallucinations, this place must not be in this state."

While talking about himself, Ji Han also lowered his head to check the dead cockroaches under the plate.

I didn't even notice the bad light just now, but at this time, the corpses of these cockroaches are still very fresh. It looks like they have just died, and their bodies have not dried out.

But Ji Han noticed a strange point:

"Huh? Come and see, why are the corpses of these cockroaches so shriveled?"

Everyone didn't understand the meaning of Ji Han's words for a while, thinking why did he suddenly become interested in this disgusting bug?

If they saw that he didn't mean to be joking, they all leaned forward to have a look.

It turned out that all the cockroaches on the table were dead. Although the corpses were very fresh, their bodies were shriveled.

Field paid no attention to the dead cockroaches:

"These cockroaches should have been crushed to death by the crew with plates?"

"No, you see, these cockroaches are all lying around the plates on the table. Besides, if the crew really shot them to death, they definitely wouldn't leave them on the table, so they must have crawled after the crew left the cabin. came to the table."

Walter pinched the shriveled cockroach, seemed to remember something, frowned and said:

"It shouldn't be wrong. The cockroaches on the table seem to be...starved to death."

Chapter 681 The Truth About the Cargo

Hearing this, everyone's eyes widened.

Eggplant grinned and said:

"Starved to death? Are you kidding? I would rather believe that this thing was poisoned to death. Cockroaches can live if they eat something, and they have a strong reproductive ability. How could they starve to death?

Besides, the bread on the dining table is still there, and the cockroaches here are not fools, how could they starve themselves to death looking at the bread? "

Walter didn't explain much, just recalled:

"Consciousness-only society also has its own laboratory, because cockroaches are very adaptable, and sometimes they don't do some experiments with them.

But after all, there are plenty of things like cockroaches, and no one deliberately feeds them, so many cockroaches stored in confined spaces are indeed starved to death.

At that time, I was joking with the people in the laboratory, saying that they can even starve cockroaches to death, which is really useless.

The state of those cockroaches is exactly the same as those on the table.

But the only thing I don't quite understand is, how could these cockroaches starve themselves to death with so much food?

Besides, if other cockroaches starve to death, the living cockroaches should eat the corpses of the dead cockroaches. "

Hearing Walter's well-founded memories, everyone didn't know how to answer.

At this moment, Chen Ke slapped his thigh and said:

"I remembered, have you seen "Pirates of the Caribbean"? In it, after Barbossa led his subordinates to get the cursed gold coins, he turned into an immortal monster like a mummy.

But they lost all senses forever, no matter how much they ate, they couldn't satisfy their hunger, no matter how much they drank, they couldn't satisfy their thirst.

Could it be that all the creatures on this ship were cursed? "

Eggplant patted the back of Chen Ke's head lightly from behind:

"What nonsense are you talking about? I've heard of people who killed and killed the nine clans, but never heard of people who cursed and brought cockroaches with them.

Let's stop guessing at these dead bugs, and continue to look down to see if there are any clues to be true. "

Ji Hanxin said yes, if he could really analyze something from a bunch of dead cockroaches, then probably everyone wouldn't use it.

Everyone exited the crew room one by one and continued down the corridor outside.

At the bottom, a huge iron-clad wooden door that is much thicker than before appeared in front of you.

Brass bolts and bulky brass locks give this door a sense of security.

Chen Ke frowned and said:

"I paid special attention just now. I didn't find any keys in the wheelhouse, captain's cabin, and crew cabin. It seems that the key should be carried by the captain."

Walter snorted and said:

"You still need to find the key to break the door, just destroy him."

As he said that, he was about to step forward to kick him. Seeing this, Ji Han hurriedly waved his hands and said:

"Don't, don't, who knows what's behind, just let me drive."

When I was playing the Changbai Mountain dungeon, the game gave me the ability to unlock the lock, but I never had a chance to use it. Today I just found a chance to review it.

Thinking of turning into a bag, he pulled out a thin iron wire and carefully inserted it into the copper lock.

After twisting left and right to feel the internal structure, he pulled out the iron wire, bent it a few small folds, and inserted it again.

With the slight rotation of the wire in his hand this time, the huge copper lock opened with a "click".

Seeing this, Field was surprised and said:

"By the way, is your Alien Guard really a legal organization? This level of professionalism is so professional that a thief will give it a thumbs up after seeing it, right?"

Eggplant heard the nonsense and said:

"Don't compare us with Ji Han, we are both good citizens.

According to my observation, this kid Ji Han should have done all kinds of things like stealing, robbery, murder, robbery, kidnapping and ticket tearing, and he doesn't look like a novice. "

Chen Ke and Song Qian knew that Eggplant was talking nonsense as soon as they heard it, and usually his mouth was not very good, so they ignored him.

But Walter and Field really heard it.

I thought it's no wonder Ji Han knows everything, and his bottom line is always lower than their Consciousness-only Society, no wonder.

Ji Han didn't care about the strange eyes of the two, carefully took off the brass lock on the door and hung it on the bolt beside him.

Then he pulled the door bolt outward, and the tight door loosened inward.

But Ji Han didn't let go of the latch, but looked back at everyone.

Seeing that everyone nodded slightly, as if they were ready, they took a deep breath and pushed the heavy wooden door open.

Multiple flashlights quickly shone inward, illuminating the dark cabin.

Fortunately, at first glance, there are no living creatures here, just like the one above.

Only then did everyone breathe a sigh of relief, there were only wooden boxes of different sizes in the cabin below.

The wooden boxes are neatly stacked according to the specifications of the back big and the front small. It looks like there are about four or five rows, but there are not many, and there is a small area in the middle.

Walter looked inside and said:

"It seems that we guessed correctly. The goods stacked here must not be ordinary goods, otherwise it would be impossible to stack them so sparsely."

"Let's go and have a look."

When the six people came to the stacked goods, they did not rush to open them. Instead, they walked towards the depths of the warehouse vigilantly. It was true that there was nothing hidden inside.

It wasn't until we got to the last row and confirmed that there was no problem inside, that everyone regrouped in the central empty area.

Eggplant tapped the wooden box next to it with a flashlight and said:

"What the hell are they transporting? It doesn't look like much. As for them running back and forth?"

Ji Han picked up a smaller wooden box from the shelf next to it and put it on the ground in the middle, saying:

"I'm not sure. There's no mark on these boxes. Let's open one and have a look. Be careful, everyone."

As he spoke, he picked up the crowbar on the side, carefully pried open the edge of the wooden box, and then carefully removed the wooden cover on it with his hands.

But who knew that what was exposed under the wooden cover were actually sawdust and paper balls, and everyone was even more confused when they saw it.

Only Chen Ke widened his eyes when he saw it, and said to himself:

"No way? Could it be that they shipped..."

Chen Ke was talking to himself while reaching out his hand to feel for something among the wood chips and paper balls in the wooden box, and soon he seemed to have touched something.

As Chen Ke carefully took the thing out of the sawdust, a complete and exquisite blue and white porcelain plate appeared in front of the eyes of the six people.

Ji Han had only seen the exquisite patterns in museums. Although he didn't understand it as well as Chen Ke, he could tell that it was a precious antique porcelain.

Chen Ke gritted his teeth and cursed:

"Damn! No wonder Moss and the others want to delete all the information about this ship, and tell the outside world that this ship is transporting goods! Even the starting point has been changed, because this ship is used by them to smuggle cultural relics! "

Chapter 682: Release the Fog and Set the Wind Bead

At that time, the late Qing Dynasty was so decadent that it was difficult to resist foreign strong ships and guns, and the country was wide open.

At that time, there were not a few foreigners who collected all kinds of rare treasures, antiques and cultural relics from China, and many cultural relics were smuggled out of the country at that time.

These Ji Han and others all knew about it, but they didn't expect that the ghost ship in the Bermuda sea area used to do this kind of thing.

Ji Han suddenly realized:

"It's no wonder they've only shipped so little after traveling so far, and they haven't even marked the outside of the box.

He's so damn picky, they're all valuables. "
