Beibei roams the magical starry world

In the captain's office of the ship, the captain had a serious look on his face, and sitting opposite him was the fourth prince who also had a serious look on his face.

"Captain, although you checked every corner of the ship, you didn't check the passenger cabins. What if my wife was kidnapped in the cabin? Wouldn't she be lost forever?"

"Fourth Prince, the guest cabins involve the guests' privacy, so we can't just check them casually!" the captain said helplessly.

"Can't you think of a solution? For example, changing the bed sheets for the guests, doing indoor cleaning or something like that." The fourth prince said anxiously.

"Okay, I'll make arrangements right away, but I feel like the princess' disappearance was premeditated. Let's go find the person involved!" the captain suggested.

The fourth prince followed the captain out of the office and walked towards the cabin area.

Soon, the two arrived at the rich businessman's cabin and knocked on the door but no one answered.

The two of them came to the noble lady's cabin. As the noble lady was about to go out, she looked up and saw the fourth prince and the captain, so she smiled and greeted them: "Hello, fourth prince! Hello, captain! You two are busy!"

After hearing the lady's greeting, the two smiled and nodded. The captain said, "Madam, we have something to ask you. I wonder if it is convenient."

"Ah! Ask me something." The lady looked at the captain warily and said

"Yes! The princess disappeared after having dinner with you last night, so we want to know something from you." Seeing the lady's wary look, the captain gave a brief explanation.

When the lady heard the captain say that the princess disappeared after dinner yesterday, her face suddenly became a little nervous and she asked hurriedly: "I don't know about this!"

"Don't be nervous, we just want to understand what happened that night." The captain explained

"How about we find a place to sit down and talk?" the captain continued

The lady looked at her cabin and said embarrassedly, "It's a bit messy inside, why don't we go to the ship's tea room to talk."

The captain looked at the Fourth Prince, who nodded slightly. Then, under the leadership of the captain, they came to the private room of the ship's teahouse.

After the three of them sat down, the captain and the lady ordered a cup of scented tea, and the fourth prince ordered a glass of plain water.

After the waiter brought the tea, the captain asked people not to come in and disturb them unless necessary.

The waiter nodded in agreement and quietly left the private room.

The captain glanced at the fourth prince, who nodded at him. The captain looked at the noble lady and said, "The princess never returned to her cabin after having dinner in the restaurant at the latest. You know this, right?"

The lady shook her head and said, "I was drunk last night and have been sleeping ever since. I was just about to go out for a walk when I ran into the Fourth Prince and the Captain. I only found out about the disappearance of the Princess after you mentioned it."

"Was there anything unusual during dinner last night?" the captain asked after listening to the lady's story.

The lady thought for a moment, shook her head and said, "No, we just had dinner together and talked about some ordinary topics."

The captain looked at the lady and asked, "I think you can drink quite well! How did you get drunk last night? Did you drink a lot?"

"Yes! I can drink quite well, but last night... let me think, I didn't seem to drink much last night! Oh, by the way, if you hadn't reminded me, I wouldn't have noticed. Last night, the prince's wife, the rich businessman and I drank two bottles of Concubine's Smile Wine. The rich businessman said that this wine was bought at an auction for one million yuan and is effective for women's beauty, so most of the wine was drunk by the prince's wife and me. But only two bottles of wine made us drunk, something is wrong!" When the lady said this, she looked at the fourth prince and the captain blankly.

"You mean, you and the princess got drunk after drinking the 'Fei Zi Xiao' wine that the rich businessman bought at auction?" the captain asked uncertainly.

"I was probably drunk at the time, but I don't know about the princess." The lady explained.

"Then how did you get back to the cabin?" the captain asked

"It was the rich businessman who helped me back to the cabin." When the lady said this, her face flushed.

"What happened after you returned to your room?" The captain asked curiously when he saw the lady blushing.

"After returning to my room, I fell asleep in a daze." The lady said somewhat embarrassedly

Seeing the lady speaking timidly, the captain raised his voice and said seriously: "Madam, you also know that today's inquiry is related to the princess, so please don't hide it."

The lady was a little embarrassed and said, "Captain, you are overthinking it. I just think some of them are private matters and have nothing to do with the disappearance of the princess."

"You slept alone after returning to your room last night." The captain looked at the lady seriously.

The lady was silent for a long time, then shook her head and said, "I was drunk at the time, but I was conscious. Yes, yes, yes, I slept with the rich businessman. When I woke up in the morning and drank water, the rich businessman was sleeping next to me." The lady blushed and briefly recounted what happened last night.

"Where did the rich businessman go?" the captain asked.

"I don't know about this! I just woke up and found that the rich businessman was gone. I guess he went back to his cabin!" The lady said in confusion.

"But we just went to the rich businessman's cabin and knocked on the door for a long time, but no one answered!" the captain said in confusion.

"I don't know about that." The lady said apologetically.

"Okay, ma'am, let's talk about this for today. If you think of anything else, please contact me as soon as possible." The captain said as he stood up.

The lady nodded and said uneasily, "Yes, Captain."

The fourth prince and the captain once again came to the rich businessman's cabin and knocked for a long time, but no one answered.

The captain looked at the Fourth Prince and asked, "Fourth Prince, what should we do?"

"Let someone open the door and take a look!" the fourth prince said calmly.

The captain notified the cleaning lady, who soon knocked on the door and said loudly, "Room cleaning." After knocking a few times and no one answered, she took out the room card and opened the door.

There was no one inside and the bed was neatly made. It was obvious that no one had slept here last night.

The fourth prince and the captain checked the room inside and out and found nothing suspicious.

The two men reluctantly left the rich businessman's cabin and returned to the captain's office.

"I suspect someone has drugged the Imperial Concubine's Laughing Wine," the captain said with a frown.

"Yeah! Who did it? A wealthy businessman? If it was him, what was his motive? The timing doesn't even match!" The fourth prince frowned and analyzed.

"Maybe there are accomplices!" the captain reminded

The fourth prince nodded and said, "What should we do now?"

"Find the rich businessman and ask him about the concubine's laughing wine." The captain said thoughtfully

"But what should we do now that the rich businessman is missing?" asked the fourth prince.

"They should be hiding somewhere." The captain said to the fourth prince in a comforting tone.

"I hope so!" the fourth prince sighed.
