Chapter 399 Murder Case

In the evening, the Sea Charm sailed away from Suzhou Port under the shroud of sunlight.

As the newspapers said, this ship is indeed the most luxurious and luxurious cruise ship in the world, with everything to eat, drink and enjoy - the level of food on board is even comparable to that of a school.

Passengers can visit casinos, watch operas, and under the care of the crew, use the ballista on the deck to hunt sea animals on the surface of the sea, and drag them up from the bottom of the sea through iron chains.

On the third day, the Sea Charm sailed out of the waters of Yu State,

On the sixth day, the Sea Charm sailed away from Zhou Kingdom's waters and headed for the Endless Sea.

Due to leaving the waters of the two countries, the entertainment activities on board are not subject to the laws of the two countries, and an anonymous auction similar to the Chang'an ghost market was held.

Those who want to participate must wear masks to attend, and the auction of things that are absolutely contraband on land.

For example, the skull of a famous demon cultivator, the personal sword of the head of a hidden sect, the stolen relics of Zen sages, the manuscripts of the daily life of a certain emperor of the former Sui Dynasty, etc.

The auction price is also very exaggerated, starting at 3,000 guan, and adding at least 300 guan to each bidding price.

There are still a lot of rich people in the future, especially now that the railway is open, the speed of rich people's wealth will be faster and easier than in the past.

During the voyage of the Sea Charm, Li Ang has been controlling the two Mosi clones, paying attention to Su Xinghuo's movements.

But it's a pity that Su Xinghuo is not keen on going to casinos, restaurants and other places, and occasionally appears on the deck, and he is also with Xia Yuanjia and the cat demon.

Mosi's clone couldn't find a chance to get close.

By the eighth day, the Sea Charm had sailed more than a hundred nautical miles into the Endless Sea, and finally docked at the edge of a lush island.

This medium-sized island is called Banzi Island and was discovered by the Academy fifty years ago.

The expedition team at that time left a group of people on the island to teach the aborigines on the island the language of Yu.

Today, these aborigines have been "civilized", not only do not exclude foreign tourists, but also hold various welcome activities to warmly welcome foreign tourists in exchange for daily necessities brought by the cruise ship.

For the vast majority of Yu people, the Endless Sea is still shrouded in a veil of mystery, especially the aborigines living on the islands in the Endless Sea, who are even more enigmatic.

After all, Su Xinghuo was a teenager at heart. Hearing the receptionist's introduction about how fun the island was, he couldn't help himself. He carried the black cat on his shoulders, followed the passengers on the ship, and walked down the deck along the steps.

The aborigines on the island are already waiting at the port. Their complexion is yellowish and black, they are short in stature, their teeth are white, and their hair is mostly black or tan.

The head, neck, wrists and ankles all wear garlands woven from flowers and plants. It was very similar to the Hawaiian in Li Ang's memory from another world.

Most of the aborigines on the island can speak the language of Yu State. They have long known that the Sea Charm will come, and prepared a welcome ceremony in advance, putting garlands around the necks of all disembarking passengers.

The scenery on the island is so beautiful that even Li Ang thought of going on vacation.

Let one Mosi avatar watch Su Xinghuo from a distance, and the other go to the beach to swim, dive to the bottom of the sea to see coral, touch sea turtles, pick up shells, and go to the edge of the island to watch the volcanic magma overflow into the sea from a distance, stirring up boiling steam .

In the evening, drink coconut wine by the bonfire and sing and dance with the aborigines.

Li Ang was in a happy mood, but at the same time a little regretful.

When I am free, I have completely solved the hidden dangers of Mosi and Zhaoming, so I must bring Chai Chai out to have a good time.

When the bonfire gradually extinguished, some crew members came to inform them that there would be big storms at sea tonight.

The Sea Charm has dropped anchor at the port, and the passengers can stay in the houses on the island, or return to the Sea Charm—the crew personally suggested that the passengers stay on the island,

Because the ship is affected by the wind and waves, it will shake very much and affect sleep.

In order to keep the promise with his friend Xia Yuanjia, Su Xinghuo naturally had to return to the Sea Charm, and Mosi's avatar followed him on board.

When I was on the island during the day, the black cat disappeared for a short period of time, and Mosi's avatar took advantage of this time to chat with Su Xinghuo.

Originally, he wanted to take this opportunity to win the other party's trust, but unfortunately Su Xinghuo stayed in Xia Yuanjia's room to talk, and then went back to sleep in his own room, and Mosi's avatar failed to find the opportunity.

In the middle of the night, as the crew said, there was a strong wind on the sea, and the ship was shaking.

The next morning, Mosi clone got up as usual, but heard noisy noises from the aisle.

"catch him!"

"I'm not a murderer! Let me go!"

Mosi clone, An Xuehai frowned, pushed the door and walked out.

I saw a group of people crowded in the aisle, blocking room No. 9, which was Xia Yuanjia's cabin door.

very strong smell of blood

Mosi clone's expression changed slightly, and he squeezed through the crowd to the outside of Room No. 9.

Blood was splashed everywhere in the room, Xia Yuanjia's arm was exposed outside the quilt, his throat was cut open, and he was completely lifeless.

And Su Xinghuo, a round-faced boy, was blushing, and his hands were bound by several crew members.

"Su Xinghuo!"

Xia Yuanjia's bodyguard, a cultivator named Sikong Ji, scolded angrily: "Silang regards you as a bosom friend, how could you do such a thing?!"

"I don't!"

Su Xinghuo shouted: "Yuan Jia is my close friend and relative, I will not, and it is impossible to kill him."

"But you were the last person to leave this room last night."

Another guard named Sikong Qiu said: "This room is completely sealed, even the windows are sealed.

At the end of the passage outside the door, there is the ship receptionist - he sat behind the reception desk all night, did not leave, and saw you finally walk out of the room worried"

Listening to the conversation of everyone in the room, Li Ang gradually understood what was going on.

Xia Yuanjia has a habit of not going to the ship's restaurant to eat every morning, but asking the ship's waiter to bring breakfast.

This morning, the waiter who brought him food called him outside the door as usual.

After receiving no response for a long time, the waiter asked the ship receptionist to open the door with a key, only to find Xia Yuanjia lying on the blood-stained ship, dead for a long time.

The door was locked from the inside, and the entire room was completely sealed. Alarm signs were everywhere on the walls, on the table, and on the windows.

Once there are thoughts, spells, and aliens in the room, an alarm will be issued immediately.

In other words, Xia Yuanjia's death did not involve any extra-ordinary factors.

Under such circumstances, Su Xinghuo, who was the last to be seen walking out of the room, naturally became the most suspected murderer.
