[Comprehensive British and American] The villain is also looking for a job today

The journey had just started, and it was an exciting period. A dozen people from Gotham were chatting and drinking with each other excitedly.

Ede had had enough sleep, so he was not in a hurry to go back to his room, so he also stood on the deck to enjoy the sea breeze.

A sailor who looked very young walked towards Ide with a wine glass.He is at most 20 years old, has dark skin unique to sailors, and looks very hearty when he smiles with white eyes.Ede had a good impression of him, this morning in the restaurant, he was sitting next to Old Mai, and every time the gangway was retracted, it was this little brother.

"Hi, Ed. Didn't see you at dinner." He introduced himself a little shyly: "Hi, my name is John. I always see you on the deck, uh, I mean I'm in charge of the deck and gangway ,so…"

John looked a little shy, but there was no change in his tanned face.

"You look very young, why are you with Ales and the others?" John took the initiative to find a topic.

"I think we're about the same age." Ed glanced at him, "Life forces me to find a job."

"But you don't look like the kind of person life forces you to be, but what you said is right, it just surprised me." John felt a little embarrassed again, as if he was looking down on Ed.He quickly said something else to change the subject:

"I heard that the organizations of Alles and Pashtun are very big! Did you go to join them?"

Ede was quite interested in the employers, and asked along the pole, "Do you know them well? Do they always come to Gotham?"

"Actually, I don't know too well. Old Mai is my uncle, and this is my second time to go to sea." He approached Ide and said in a low voice: "But Ales and the others are very generous, and the organization must be very rich! They have been coming to Gotham quite frequently in the past six months, I heard from Lao Mai."

"Do you know the name of their organization? They hire so many people every time they come to Gotham?"

John: "I don't know... This is also the first time I have walked this sea line."

After a while, he hesitated and said, "Ed, try not to leave the room in the middle of the night."

Ede remembered the inexplicable sight in the corridor just now, and asked tentatively: "Why? Is there any reason?"

But the young sailor only vaguely said that it was for safety reasons and other reasons.

John's expression was a little uncertain. It didn't look like he knew the specific reason, but more like he had been told.Ed took his words to heart, but the rest of the time was uneventful.

When the ship sailed to the Strait of Gibraltar, a sudden change occurred.

In the early morning, white snow mist floated in the distance of the sea, and spread out against the sea surface in a strange way.Lao Mai told everyone that this season is when foggy weather is prone to occur, and everyone should try not to get close to the deck, so as not to cause accidents and no one will find out.

After Ede took the food back to his room, he didn't go out all day, and stayed in the room playing with his mobile phone.

Until the next day, Olivia knocked on the door of her room 7.

"Someone is missing."

She followed Olivia to the dining room, where the crew members, Allers and others gathered.Lao Mai told everyone that Boss was gone.

Bowes was one of the 17 people who set out from Gotham. He was tall and strong and didn't look easy to mess with.So everyone tended to think that something happened to him and he might have fallen into the sea, because the fog was so thick that it was almost impossible to see clearly from one meter away.

However, the next day, another person disappeared.One of the people who left from Gotham, he lived in room 9.

A man with a Mohawk approached Lao Mai, who seemed to be a friend in Room 9. "Captain, you must give an explanation! How can people disappear for no reason."

The lieutenant next to Lao Mai was very displeased to see Mohawk disrespecting the captain so much: "What do you mean? If someone does not listen to the captain's warning and goes to the deck to cause an accident, what can we do?"

The scene was full of gunpowder and gunpowder, and finally the bald Pashto came out to stabilize the situation.But Gotham and others were already wary of them, and in the next few days they went to the restaurant to get ingredients for cooking, and they were unwilling to eat the food made by Lao Mai and the others.

……

Olivia sat in the restaurant, spread out the napkin, and looked out the window while eating the food she made.As dusk approaches, the sky is covered with blue-purple dark clouds, and the fog is much smaller than that of the previous few days. In the fog, the sea water is looming, making it even more mysterious and beautiful.

The weather at sea is like a child with uncertain weather. Olivia didn't even finish a meal when a sudden gust of wind blew up outside the window, shaking the glasses in the restaurant.

She hurriedly ate the last few mouthfuls, stood up with the table in hand, walked down the gangway, and walked to the room.

Olivia lives in room 15 and will pass by room 9.Under the dim incandescent lamp, she hurried past as usual, and saw from a distance that the door of Room 9 was not closed tightly, revealing a small gap.When she passed by, she subconsciously raised her eyes and glanced into the darkness.

Olivia's body froze suddenly, her pupils constricted violently, and a scream was about to come out from her lips.Fortunately, she has been at the bottom of Gotham since she was a child, and she is not a woman who knows nothing.She did not dare to act rashly when encountering a sudden change, and temporarily remained silent at the door of Room 9.

She turned her head crazily, wondering if it was a psychological effect, this not-so-long corridor seemed to be filled with emptiness and death in an instant, some kind of "something" in the dark gap caused a residual repulsion and fear, making her She conjured dark memories of those cobwebs that she had lived in as a child in the closet.

The desire to survive in Olivia's bones supported her, and she thought calmly, if she wanted to kill me, why wait so long?

She waited quietly for a minute, maybe less than that, and rushed back to her room quickly, locked the door as soon as she entered, put her ear on the door, it was quiet outside, except for the whistling of the wind, she couldn't hear anything .

**

The wind was getting stronger and stronger, and in a blink of an eye there were thunder and lightning, and there was a violent storm.The cargo ship is teetering in this vast ocean.In the room where Ede was, the incandescent light flickered a few times, and finally went out.

The rain is like a line, overwhelmingly slanting down from the sky...

The wind came in through the gap, and Ede somehow felt a chill in his neck.She wrapped the quilt tighter.

Such weather is the most suitable for accidents, isn't it?Sure enough, as Clarkson said, there is nothing good about working abroad with a high salary.Pashtun and Lao Mai obviously know more than they do. Maybe the people who hired Gotham are killing everyone.During the day, be sure to find someone to ask about it.

As soon as her thoughts settled down, she heard some rustling sounds in her ears. It was extremely difficult to hear clearly in the storm, but Ede heard it inexplicably.

She realized that something seemed to be approaching the door of Room 7.
