This Damned Thirst for Survival

After explaining the mission, Dean Xu left Jiang Luo and the three alone, and talked about the unexpected accident during the last mission.

After the talent show ended, Jiang Luo discussed with Ye Xun and Lu Yi and told Dean Xu about Fu Yuan'er and Qimen Dunjia's illusion.

Dean Xu's investigation has reached the present, and he has a definite answer.He purposely dispersed the others, closed the door again, and said, "You guessed right, it was indeed the actions of the Chi family and the Qi family."

"Fu Yuaner's body was taken away by the Chi family from the competition party. Although Fu Yuaner was an ordinary person, she had a spirit body. Such a corpse is most suitable for use as a puppet. The quality in the hands of the Chi family There are absolutely not many puppets," Dean Xu said solemnly, "As for the illusion, only the elders of the Qi family can do that. But unfortunately, although I have already concluded that these two families did it , but searched for half a month, but did not find any evidence."

Dean Xu shook his head and smiled wryly, "Today, there are three forces in the metaphysics world. One is the six elites with many elites, and the other is our twelve colleges and universities. The country stands in the middle, maintaining the balance between us. If something like this happens, let me tell you the truth, and they won’t admit that nothing happened to you, and they can only let it go. Unless you can produce evidence and let the country be the master.”

But here lies the trouble.

The law pays attention to "there is no suspicion of crime", but people who study metaphysics are different from ordinary people, and there are always some mysterious methods.Their methods are mysterious and unpredictable, and it is difficult to leave tangible evidence.

Ye Xun frowned, "Dean, why did they come to kill us?"

Dean Xu sighed, waved his hand and said, "Then you have to ask what these two families think."

Lu Yi complained: "Could it be that they don't like us because they see people from our school getting the limelight in the competition and suppressing people from their family?"

After he finished speaking, he poked Jiang Luo, "Luo, do you think I'm right?"

Jiang Luo said slowly: "I don't think what you said can be exactly the same, I can only say that it has nothing to do with it."

Lu Yi: "..."

Jiang Luo said again: "Actually, when I heard that Qi Ye would not appear in this assessment, I always had the feeling that they would do something again."

After all, Father Qi was determined to get rid of him.

But Jiang Luo wasn't very worried.

The Chi family is now a little trash in his eyes, and without Chi You, there will be no scary fangs.

As for the Qi family, their weaknesses are obvious, but such a big family has raised a simple little sheep like Qi Ye, and Qi Ye is obviously their weakness.Jiang Luo didn't want to hurt Qi Ye, but he could use this point to threaten the Qi family.

"This is what I am worried about will happen," Dean Xu said in a deep voice, "I will contact the police and ask them to follow far behind the Angonise to ensure your safety as much as possible. Remember, life comes first , Second assessment, if you encounter danger, don't hesitate, get on the lifeboat and run away."

The three looked at each other and nodded.

Two days later, the Triangle Port Wharf.

Seagulls flew by, the sea was calm, and the wind rolled onto the pier with a salty smell.

The luxurious and magnificent Angonise is docked by the sea.

The pier was already full of dense people, and they looked up at the Angonise under the scorching sun in amazement.The dazzling sunlight refracted all kinds of brilliance on the white body of this artwork, and huge shadows spread from the sea to them.Most of the people covered by the shadows were civilians in ordinary or even shabby clothes, but there were also some rich people who were well-dressed.

The crew put down the ladder frame and shouted: "It's done!"

The Angonise has two boarding passages, one is the civilian passage leading to the bottom, and the other is the wealthy passage leading to the upper floors.The two boarding ports are guarded by crew members, and the captain stands at the entrance of the rich man's passage with a warm smile on his face.

The Angonise only recognizes boat tickets, but in addition to boat tickets, all boarders must undergo strict and careful inspections, in order to prevent anyone from carrying any electronic devices that can contact the outside world and send messages on board.

Yes, Angonise does not accept technology gadgets.

Such a strange setting should not have been accepted.But those who came to board the ship acquiesced to this rule, and even the picky rich obeyed this rule.

Now is the time for guests to board the ship.

Rich people lined up in twos and threes. After the crew checked the tickets on the ground, they took the luggage away for inspection first, and then moved them to their rooms.

The wealthy people whose tickets had been checked boarded the boat, and another group of people checked in detail whether they carried equipment that could be used for filming and recording.

The channel for the rich is proceeding in an orderly manner.

Compared to here, the civilian passage on the first floor is extremely crowded and noisy.

Everyone was holding luggage in their hands, sweating profusely and squeezed into the crowd.The smell of sweat and feet, the man's swearing and the woman's high heels formed an annoying prelude.

"It's so hot." Zhuo Zhongqiu simply took off his peaked cap and fanned himself with his backhand. "Hundreds of people crowded onto the boat, and they checked so carefully. I'm going to die of boredom."

"Yes," Lu Yi said sleepily, "I'm so thirsty that my throat is smoking."

Wen Renlian handed him the water in his hand, and said with a smile, "Kangzheng didn't sweat at all, you guys are almost mummies."

"Can it be the same?" Lu Yi drank half a bottle of water in one breath, wiped his mouth comfortably, and looked at Kuangzheng enviously, "Kangzheng stays by the stove every day, he is already used to this temperature. From Kuangzheng, what I envy the most is..."

His gaze shifted to the less-traveled rich man's passage, "Oh, I'm so envious."

Ye Xun lowered his head, wiped the sweat off Xiaofen's head, and looked at the people around him, "It's not right."

"They all look poor." He saw a man blowing his nose and wiping his fingers casually on his body. "At least they don't have spare money. They will come to buy an expensive ferry ticket."

Ordinary boat tickets also require four-digit prices.

Wen Renlian whispered: "Yes, and the number of ordinary people boarding the ship is several times higher than that of the rich. They still seem to be so flocking to it."

What is there on this cruise ship that makes them willing to spend such a "huge sum" of money to get on board?

On the passage of the rich.

The men are dressed like gentlemen, and the women are glamorous.Everyone wears extremely eye-catching watches and jewelry, but even so, there are always a few people who stand out.

The crew trotted all the way to the ground, came to the guest, bent down and respectfully said: "Guest, please give me your luggage."

The black-haired young man wearing sunglasses casually handed him the luggage and the ticket, "Be careful."

The dark-haired young man was wearing a casual outfit, with bright black hair hanging over his shoulders.The sunglasses covered the eyebrows and eyes, but the line of the chin was beautiful and neat.His lips were as gorgeous as roses, and there was a bit of frivolity and coquettishness in his lips.

Now it was his turn to board the boat. Behind him, Ge Zhu tried to put on a sullen face, trying to act like a rich man.

The two walked up the stairs.Ge Zhu whispered: "Jiang Luo, you look like a really rich man."

Two days before boarding the ship, Ge Zhu specially went to Lu Yi to learn what is called the temperament of a rich man.But Lu Yi didn't have such a thing at all, he could only make up for film and television dramas, and learn how to be a rich man from the screen.

But seeing such a big ship and such a big battle for the first time, Ge Zhu was still a little timid.

Jiang Luo turned his head, pulled his sunglasses up to the bridge of his nose to look at him, and said in a low voice, "You just remember four words - no one in sight."

Ge Zhu coughed twice, "I will try my best."

Jiang Luo had never been a rich man, but he knew Chi You well.

Take Chi Yun's attitude over, remove the gentle appearance, such arrogance and coldness, no one will doubt his identity.

On the boat, the captain stretched out his hand to shake Jiang Luo's hand with a smile on his face. These people have been out at sea all year round, and they have a smell of sea breeze that has been left over for many years.

"Welcome distinguished guests aboard the Angonise," the captain shook hands with Ge Zhu again, "Good morning, Mr. Zhong Wei, Mr. Lu Qi."

Jiang Luo smiled and said in a good mood: "Hello, Captain."

The captain stretched out his hand to the right, "Please go there for the last inspection, and wish you a pleasant trip in advance."

Jiang Luo and Ge Zhu walked to the right and walked into a beautifully decorated room.

There were already two crew members waiting in the room. They put on their gloves and came to Jiang Luo and the two, "Sir, I will conduct a final inspection for you, please cooperate."

Jiang Luo nodded and opened his hand for the crew to check.But when the crew was about to touch him, they stopped suddenly and said to the door: "First officer."

Jiang Luo turned his head to look, and saw a tall man leisurely walking in from the door.

This man should be of mixed Chinese and Western race, with deep outlines, dark golden hair messed up by the sea breeze, and falling gracefully and loosely around his dark blue sea-like eyes.

The crew member walked over and said, "First officer, what's the matter?"

"I'm here to check on this guest," the first mate said with a raised tone, "Go and see the other guests."

The crew member said hello and walked out of the room.

Ge Zhu, who was next to him, was being checked in his pocket, hurriedly looked up and then lowered his head.

The first officer walked up to Jiang Luo, and Jiang Luo looked at him inquisitively.

With an unpredictable smile on the corner of the man's mouth, he reached out and took out a pair of white gloves from the box, and slowly put them on.

White gloves wrapped his slender fingers, and the first mate's five fingers were spread out to make the gloves fit better.He raised his head with a smile, walked up to Jiang Luo, and said politely: "Guest, I'm going to start checking you."

Pleasant tone.

"First, please open your mouth."

The familiar feeling on the first officer was too strong, after a few more glances, Jiang Luo decided that the first officer must be Chi You.This guy didn't even pretend to be.Jiang Luo's eyebrows twitched, his brows furrowed and his lips parted.

The white-gloved index finger reached into Jiang Luo's lips, stroking Jiang Luo's teeth one by one.His movements were slow and ambiguous, provocative as if deliberately slowed down.Thin and dense itching rose from the palate, Jiang Luo persisted for a while, his lips and teeth were so tired, he took a step back, trying to close his mouth.

"No, guest," the first officer held down Jiang Luo's lower teeth, and forced Jiang Luo's lips to open again, "I haven't finished the inspection yet."

There was a spark in Jiang Luo's eyes, and he glared at the first officer.

He opened his lips for a long time, and all the saliva came out.Jiang Luo was not feeling well, he glanced at the first mate's face, and quietly clenched his fists.

The first officer took his time and finally finished checking the inside of the lips.His fingers slowly withdrew from the inside, tapped on Jiang Luo's lips as if he was nostalgic, and praised: "The guest's teeth are neat and clean, very beautiful."

"Thank you," Jiang Luo rinsed his mouth with water and sneered, "I like my teeth very much too."

The first officer took the handkerchief in his breast pocket and wiped the crystal water between his fingers.He looked at the veil with pity, his expression was a bit like the expression of ginseng spirit watching Jiang Luo let go of the bath water.

"Then next, I'm going to check your hair."

The first officer moved a chair in front of Jiang Luo, and said politely, "Please sit down."

Jiang Luopi sat down with a smile on his face, and said in a bad tone: "I hope you can speed up."

"Yes," said the first mate, bending over, "I will listen to your opinion."

The cool touch of the glove brushed over Jiang Luo's scalp.

The first mate chatted authentically: "Where are the guests from?"

Jiang Luo: "I think your work rules state that you don't ask customers about their privacy."

The first officer muffled a laugh, "Sorry."

The first officer slid his fingers into Jiang Luo's hair, and said, "The guest's surname is Zhong? This is really a rare surname."

"That should be because your knowledge is too little," Jiang Luo asked, "What's your name?"

"Winston."

"Winston, very good, I remember you," Jiang Luo turned his head and gave him a glance, "Go on."

After checking the hair soon, Jiang Luo stood up again and opened his hands.

The first mate inspected his arms from his side, gradually sliding down to his wrists.The hands with white gloves descended from the backs of the hands, lightly inserting them into the fingers of the guest.

The black-haired guest had a half-smile, and the hot air between his lips and teeth swept dangerously across the first mate's chin, "First mate, you seem to be harassing me."

The first officer showed a surprised expression, "Why would the guest think so?"

He was taller than Jiang Luo, and his arms were longer than Jiang Luo's.The white fingertips easily touched Jiang Luo's fingertips, lightly touched the round nails, and quickly retracted them.

"The body proportions are also perfect," the first officer praised without hesitation, "You are the most beautiful of all the passengers I have seen on board today."

Jiang Luo put down his hand, and his fingernails scratched the blood on the back of the first mate's hand. He said critically, "I've heard many things like this. Your compliments make me feel boring, and it's hard for me to say 'thank you for the compliment'."

"Really?" The first mate sighed regretfully, "Then I need to think of some novel words of praise."

He said: "Guest, please turn around."

Jiang Luo turned around.

Ge Zhu on the side had reached the final stage, he looked up at Jiang Luo, very puzzled, "Jiang...Zhong Wei, why are you so slow?"

Jiang Luo said: "That's probably because the person who checked me has a disabled hand."

The impatience in his tone was undisguised, and the arrogance of a rich man was on full display.With such a self-willed appearance, if he was inspected by a real crew member, his hands would tremble in fear.

But the first mate's hand was very steady, and he was extraordinarily rigorous not to let go of every place that had not been checked. He really checked from the hair strands to the teeth, from the fingertips to the toes.

After Jiang Luo was thoroughly inspected, Ge Zhu sat beside him in a daze for several minutes.

The first officer presented Jiang Luo's coat with a perfect smile, "The inspection is over, thank you for your cooperation. Just turn right when you go out and walk straight to the room."

Jiang Luo put on his coat, gave him a nonchalant look, turned around and walked out with Ge Zhu.

Ge Zhu was about to go to the right, but saw Jiang Luo go to the left.He followed up puzzled, wondering, "Why are you going this way?"

Jiang Luo said: "I'll find the captain."

The captain was still standing at the entrance of the passage. When he saw Jiang Luo and Ge Zhu approaching, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he walked over and said, "Both guests, is there anything I can help you with?"

"One thing," Jiang Luo said, "Captain, I want to complain to you about a crew member."

The captain was even more surprised, he listened attentively, "Say it."

"The chief mate on this ship is a man named Winston," Jiang Luo laughed, but his smile was not good. "I want to complain about him sexually harassing me. I hope you can deal with it fairly, my only one." Request, let this Winston roll into the shit, and don't let him appear in front of Lao Tzu again."

Captain: "...Yes."
