[Infinite] End Game

The sick people on the ship are not sailors, and the cargo is not fish. Coupled with the traces of binding on the hands and feet of the patients and the guarding attitude of the crew, it is easy to think of a word: human trafficking|trafficking.

Just inferring the current era based on the level of technology on board, the black slave trade should have ended long ago.Trafficking | The profits obtained by human trafficking may not be as much as those obtained by honest fishing, which is completely out of proportion to the risks to be borne.Then, the purpose of this ship with these people is very intriguing.

Tang Yu didn't know what the captain and owner wanted to do, but according to the captain's behavior of asking Lin Mi to treat the patient, it could be guessed that they might not have enough people.

This is a ship with hidden secrets, so the best way to cover up the secrets is to keep it closed. No matter how you look at it, they don't need to come here to save people after receiving a distress signal, unless what they need is 'people'.

Tang Yu thought for a while, and told Ji Shenlan what he thought, and by the way, he also said that he wanted to go to the fish cabin to have a look.Ji Shenlan didn't shy away from Lin Mi and Cheng Jun, and after letting them listen together, Lin Mi immediately said that such an interesting thing must be involved.

It's just that the fish cabin doesn't just go down immediately.

So the few people secretly planned to act after nightfall. Taking advantage of the daytime, they took a turn on the boat, as if they were familiar with the route.

The sailors are all on the deck, some are repairing the ship with planks, some are squatting on the ground with bare arms and bare skin that has been tanned by strong ultraviolet rays, and are wiping the deck, and the rest gather under the shadow of the sails to gamble Wine and cards.

The freedom of the players is not restricted on the ship. Except for the private room and the wheelhouse, engine room and fuel compartment involved in the movement of the ship, you can walk in other places, but Tang Yu still has a feeling of being watched. Although the sailors It seemed that they were all doing their own things, but Tang Yu could still feel secretive and malicious eyes sweeping across his body from time to time.

Tang Yu ignored these gazes, and he and Chang He went to the first deck first.It was stormy and late at night when they were fished up yesterday, only the lights in the hands of the crew were used as illumination, and there was darkness outside the lights.

Standing on the deck at this moment, Tang Yu saw the appearance of the ship clearly for the first time.At the bow is a statue of a woman. The woman's hands are tied behind her back, her face is exquisitely carved, looking at the endless sea that has been broken, her slightly closed eyes seem to contain endless sadness and melancholy.

Tang Yu was blowing the humid sea breeze, and his expression was a little dazed. The storm last night was like an illusion. At this time, the sun penetrated the clouds and fell on the sea. dead bones and life.

Tang Yu looked at it for a while, then left the first deck with Chang He, and continued to explore the stern. After walking around, Tang Yu discovered that this fishing boat seemed to have been remodeled, except for the owner, captain, chief engineer, etc. The right-hand man's lounge is outside the first deck, and the seafarers' living space is on the second deck.

The second deck has three floors. The first floor is the rest cabin for the crew. Although the second floor also had cabins at the beginning of the design, it is usually not occupied by people because it is too humid. Players are arranged here, and the second floor Below the deck is directly connected to the fish cabin at the stern, forming a huge space.It's just that although the fish cabin was enlarged in this way, it also directly made the second floor of the second deck almost unusable, which is not worthwhile no matter how you think about it.

Long-term voyages are always boring. There is no reference on the sea, and the ship is like an ant strayed into another planet, lonely and cautious.

Today's weather is really good, the sky and the sea are as clean as if they have been washed away.No one wants to be in the cabin, so most players stay on deck.

Some people stayed on the side of the boat to observe the sea surface, some people walked around in the familiar environment like Tang Yu, and some players exchanged a set of cards with the sailor with a watch, and called a few companions to play together next to the sailor, looking like they were invested They looked leisurely, but Tang Yu found that they were actually learning the language of the sailors.

The night fell quickly, and the sunset on the sea was extraordinarily gorgeous and shocking. The orange sunlight coated the entire sea with a layer of sparkling gold. When the sun completely sank into the distant sea, darkness followed the sound of the waves. Covered together, the stars hang high above the head, and the world seems to become distant and silent in an instant.

The captain, who had disappeared for a day, came out of the wheelhouse with his hat on. He yelled at the sailors. One of them stood up and walked to the side of the mast, quickly climbed up to light the lamp, and then slid down the rope deftly.

At the same time as he was lighting the lights, other sailors also lit their fishing lights one after another. A long siren blew from the bow of the ship, and two huge searchlights also went up one after another. The beams of light broke through the darkness and illuminated the sea ahead.

Standing on the side of the boat, Tang Yu leaned over the fence and looked down. He saw schools of fish attracted by the light and gathered towards them. From time to time, there were shadowy creatures passing by the hull of the boat. When he thought about it carefully, they had already disappeared The dark sea where the light does not reach.

Chang He took off his coat and put it on Tang Yu. After the light disappeared, the sea breeze became cold. Once he caught a cold, it would become very troublesome.

Tang Yu pulled the edge of the exterior and straightened his body. I don't know if it was because he had been staring at the sea for too long. When Tang Yu looked back, he was suddenly dazzled, but he quickly stabilized his steps, looked at Chang He and said, "Go back. .”

Although the conditions in the cabin are not good, they need rest for night operations.

The ship stopped all activities after ten o'clock in the evening. At nearly two o'clock in the morning, Lin Mi and Cheng Jun quietly touched the outside of their cabin. After Tang Yu opened the door, he found that they had brought a man with him. It was trading cards with sailors during the day.

The man's complexion was dark, but he looked very energetic, his eyes were bright and energetic, he grinned when he saw Tang Yu and the others, and said, "I'm joining the gang too, sir please take me with you."

This time, all the seniors entered the dungeon, and those who can become leaders must have their own abilities, and there is no question of who will hold back.Everyone knows what to do, the only difference is whether it is done in the same way.This person came to join the group at this time, which showed that everyone had the same idea. Of course, Ji Shenlan would not object, and after saying hello, he explained the plan softly to everyone.

The few patients Lin Mi saw were all young adult males. Since the ship chooses to imprison these people, the captain will definitely consider the issue of someone escaping. The purpose of opening up the third cabin and the fish cabin is undoubtedly to prevent this. , the detainees must also be under the fish cabin, so as to ensure that even if they cut through the ship plank, the water in the fish cabin will be directly poured in, making it impossible for them to escape.

But the three patients that Lin Mi saw yesterday were all dry, and Ji Shenlan remembered that when the captain asked someone to take the patients, the sailors walked in the direction of the first deck, so it can be deduced that the only exit It should be on the first deck. The core places such as the pilothouse, dining room, engine room, and power distribution room are unlikely. The largest remaining places are probably the captain's cabin and the infirmary.

"The captain's room is easy to scare the snake, so this time I went to the infirmary to take a look. There are only six people on the first deck including the owner of the ship. If there is an accident, you should be able to deal with it. Me and A Jin and Lin Mi I will go to the stern, and if there are sailors coming out, we will attract them." Ji Shenlan took a deep look at the few people, and finally said: "Be careful."
