Chapter 407: Intruder (1)
Translator: 549690339
Time slowly passed.
As the sky darkened, the passengers on the deck of the Astorokis began to slowly return to the cabin.
The passengers who had not had enough fun at the beginning chose to stop in the corridor after eating. They chatted and laughed as they continued their unfinished topics. Previously, the deck was not only for enjoying the sea view, but also for social activities. With their own goals, they made new friends.
Occasionally, he would see the figures of the coolies coming and going in the cabin. Most of them were hired by the guests to carry large pieces of luggage on the ship, or they were supervised by the supervisor to do cleaning work or go to the dining room to deal with kitchen waste.
But gradually, when night fell, the noise in the corridor became softer and softer. In the end, it calmed down and returned to the initial silence.
During this time, no one noticed that there was a little wolf cub hiding in the blind corner of their vision. He used his scrutinizing gaze to sweep over each of them.
But as for the result…
Liao Zixuan was a little disappointed that he didn’t find any suspicious people. Even if he risked being alerted, he threw the players ‘detection skills one by one and gave them the character panel. The passengers on the ship were all very low-level ordinary people.
By the way, Liao Zixuan had never seen the female astrologer on the deck again. He wondered if she had been staying in her room all this time.
so…
Who was this intruder?
Impression, break in, and appear in the sky, completely dark, time, now distance, that degree, and a little while, taking advantage of this time, Liao Zixuan finally carefully recalled, combing clues from the “last time” experience.
The most direct thing was, of course, the two sentences he heard from the intruder before his consciousness disappeared.
The other party’s voice was hoarse. If Liao Zixuan had to describe it, it was as if his throat had been injured.
The intruder’s first sentence was ” Die, witch.”
The second sentence was…
It was as if they were shocked after seeing something completely unexpected?
Leaving the second sentence aside, Liao Zixuan was completely confused, but the first sentence gave him a lot of useful information.
Was the ‘witch’ here referring to the little girl, Vivian?
Therefore, the motive for the other party to attack and break into the room late at night to assassinate him was…Witch?
Wait a minute.
In that case, could it be that this ” intruder ” was on the good guys ‘side? Because everyone knew that in the eyes of the world, “witch” was a symbol of misfortune and disaster.
With this as a breakthrough, Liao Zixuan followed the reasoning and made the outline of the incident clearer.
That is…
This ” intruder ” is likely to be the guardian of the Astorokis? Or perhaps there was a powerful figure hidden on the ship who had a deep hatred for the Demoness.
Unknowingly, he used some unknown means to detect Vivian’s identity as a witch, and then he planned to poison her and assassinate her in the middle of
the
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it made sense. Liao Zixuan could still find evidence.
The key piece of information that could prove that this ” intruder ” had not been planning this for a long time, but had made a last-minute decision was that he did not know of Xinyan’s existence.
Although the wolf cub could not move, it could still sense the surprise and nervousness when the other party barged into the room and found that Xin Yan was still guarding Vivian.
From this, it could be seen that this ” intruder ” wasn’t very strong. At least, it wasn’t to the point of crushing him.
Looking at all these combinations…
If the possibility of Zhao Jie was eliminated.
A figure that had been ignored by Liao Zixuan’s subconscious all this time quietly surfaced.
Could it be…Him?
The dark clouds covered the moon, making the already pitch-black night even darker.
In the dead of night, most of the people on the ship had fallen asleep. They did not have to worry about the navigation of the Astorokis. Naturally, the Heart of the Sea had full authority to make automatic adjustments.
On the passenger floor, in the corridor where Vivian’s room was located, a series of extremely faint footsteps suddenly sounded.
Even in such a quiet night, if Liao Zixuan wasn’t fully focused and was waiting for the rabbit, it would be difficult to catch it. It was obvious that the owner of the footsteps was very cautious.
Moreover, the other party was deliberately avoiding the lights in the corridor and walking close to the shadows by the wall.
However, there were always one or two places that could be completely covered by the light. Finally, when they were very close to Vivian’s room and were about to turn the corner…
With the help of the yellowish-brown light, Liao Zixuan could clearly see the appearance of the owner of the footsteps.
And…
As expected, his guess was correct.
The tattered outfit, the windbreaker that covered his entire body, the hood that covered his head, and…
Under the hood, a face covered in bandages flashed by under the light.
It was that person during the day…
Weirdo coolies!
The first time he dropped the goods, it could be said that he did not hold the goods properly. But the second time, he happened to bump into Vivian and did not hold the goods properly. Putting aside the extremely small probability, there was only one possibility.
After discovering Vivian’s identity as a witch, he was too nervous and shocked, so he made a mistake.
In this way, everything made sense. In their first experience, the supervisor and the coolies had also heard the conversation between Zhao Jie and them. Naturally, they knew that Zhao Jie strongly recommended the dish of Spicy
Boiled Fish to Vivian..
