There are some things in this world that can only be accepted by people if they are placed in a suitable place. If they are placed in an inappropriate place, they will appear abrupt.

There are actually many ships parked at the port, all kinds of big and small. The ships parked on the shore. This is a harmonious scene, but as soon as the huge Emilia enters the water, it gives people a feeling of being out of place.

This dock is connected to the dock in the distance, forming a large port. Not to mention cruise ships, large cargo ships can be seen every day. After Emilia entered the sea and mingled among the frequently-traveled cargo ships, it did not seem very big...but it just felt out of place.

"Isn't it so evil?" Bai Yutang frowned, "It's broad daylight, looking at this ship is like a ghost ship."

"I think too." Zhan Zhao nodded, "Is it a matter of design structure and color or something else? It's really like a ghost ship that has been floating on the sea for many years."

"Maybe it's the effect of doing it old?" Gongsun put on his glasses, "Is it a question of aura?"

At this time, not only Bai Yutang and others, but also some people nearby came out to see that on the deck of some large merchant ships passing by, many crew members stood there and pointed, very curious about the Emilia.

"It seems that everyone's intuitive feeling is similar." Bai Yutang called Jiang Ping and asked him to check who the designer of this Emilia was.

Gongsun and Ma Xin initially inspected Jin Liang's body.

"The death time is between two and three in the morning." Gongsun took off his gloves and told Zhan Zhaohe Bai Yutang, "The analysis of the surface situation was suicide. As for other clues, we have to take them back for further autopsy before we can find out."

Bai Yutang nodded.

Zhan Zhao looked around the yacht, "This boat is quite grand. Where did it come from? Can Jin Liang afford it?"

Zhao Hu went outside and asked several staff members of the docks. Some of them knew Jin Liang. They all said that the ship belonged to Jin Liang, and it seemed that it had just been bought.

"Is fortune teller so much money now?" Zhan Zhao was surprised.

"It's normal." Gongsun took out a thick business card holder from Jin Liang's pocket, opened it and flipped through several pages, and handed it to Bai Yutang.

Bai Yutang briefly flipped through it, "They are all high-ranking officials."

"There are also workbooks." Ma Xin looked through a thick workbook that Jin Liang carried with him and said, "The work schedule is so full, so many people asked him to tell fortunes and see Feng Shui!"

"Tsk." Zhan Zhao looked through it in detail and frowned, "If I had known, I would have gone to show people's faces, which would be more profitable than being a psychologist!"

"head."

At this time, Ma Han, who had run into the cabin and walked around, suddenly came up and waved to Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao.

The two looked at each other - they might have found some interesting clues.

Following Ma Han out of the cabin, I saw that the cabin was dimly lit and three rooms were separated from the bottom of the yacht. The first one was a gorgeous living room with a bar and a sofa, which was nothing special.

Zhan Zhao noticed the wine cabinet behind the bar, which was filled with all kinds of expensive red wine. He was a little curious and asked Bai Yutang, "It's such a hot day, is the wine on the boat?"

Bai Yutang opened the wine cabinet and looked at it. He found that there was a constant temperature system. He thought about it, "Maybe it just put it temporarily."

"Many wine glasses and refrigerators are also full." Zhan Zhao was puzzled, "Does Jin Liang live on the boat or are he going to have a party to greet guests?"

"He probably didn't live here." Ma Han opened the door of a room and said to Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, "I checked everything before and after, and there was no bedroom."

Zhan Zhao walked over to see the room behind the first door that Ma Han opened.

I saw that it was a room with a rich Chinese style. It should have cost a lot of money to decorate. Although it was very small, it was very delicate. The mahogany furniture had a simple and solemn texture. It was just a lot of black cloth pieces, with various talismans drawn with white heavy paint on it. There was also an ancient sword on the table. If you look closely around, you will find many ancient coins, tied with knots by some black cloth strips, hanging in the corners of the wall. There were yellow bronze mirrors around the dead corners, which were not very clear. Because of the angle, the portraits in the mirror were blurred and felt like they were three heads and six arms.

“Huh?”

The "Huh" that followed Gongsun's "Huh" contained many elements, and Zhan Zhao heard a lot of interesting elements inside. Indeed, if the layout of this house was added with a few ancient Chinese zombies sitting on a mahogany chair and holding a jade cup, it would be completely in line with Gongsun's aesthetic.

"What kind of formation is this?" Bai Yutang held his arms and raised his face to look at the wooden carved gossip on the roof and the hideous face of the four-way relief arhat. He inexplicably remembered to wear a costume for Gongsun, and he could directly take a costume film or something.

Ma Xin took pictures of the room and prepared to pass it on to Jiang Ping for research.

At this time, Jiang Ping called in just the right place, "Hey, I found a lot of clues, you can have a video."

Bai Yutang threw the smartphone to Zhan Zhao. This phone was provided by Jiang Ping's application for "organization". Bai Yutang basically didn't do it. Recently, the phone was as big as a brick, and it could kill people directly. Its functions were so numerous that it was simply insulting the word "mobile phone".

Zhan Zhao used it very smoothly. He clicked on the video call and placed his phone on a shrine-like shelf not far away. There were two candlesticks on both sides, an incense burner in front, and the big face of Jiang Ping appeared in the video... Everyone inexplicably wanted to go up and bow.

Jiang Ping was having a computer video conversation here, and he was shocked when he saw the scene opposite him, "Wow... have you been from the ghost ship to the Stories from a Chinese Studio? This plot is too tortuous."

"What have you found?" Bai Yutang asked Jiang Ping.

"Show you a few photos first." Jiang Ping switched the screen and then a few photos appeared.

Zhan Zhao enlarged the photos one by one, and saw that they were all photos of ancient ships.

"What kind of photo is this?" Gongsun looked at the photos one by one and found that the styles of the boat were different, including Chinese and Western styles. The common point was that they were all very shabby and had an indescribable strangeness.

"This person." Jiang Ping put on another photo, which was a black and white portrait. There was a bearded man in the photo. I didn't know how old he was. I guess he was a middle-aged man, and he felt a bit Arab.

"Who?" Bai Yutang was puzzled.

"This man is called Mario, a famous sea photographer, nicknamed Ghost Ship Hunter." Jiang Ping said, "This guy has been traveling on the sea for many years, photographing various shipwrecks and ghost ships floating on the sea. From the age of twenty to forty, he disappeared. In a total of twenty years, he photographed twelve ghost ships with historical records, and hundreds of shipwrecks. However, when he was forty, he disappeared after going to sea once and never came back. It seemed that he had encountered a shipwreck."

Bai Yutang rubbed his eyebrows. This did not seem to have much to do with the case. Now the clues are already chaotic enough, why did another Mario come out?

Zhan Zhao obviously had the same idea as Bai Yutang, and asked Jiang Ping in confusion, "Is this Mario related to our case?"

"Look at this photo." Jiang Ping suddenly called out another photo for everyone to show it.

The moment they saw the photo, everyone was silent for a moment, and then they made a unified action, which was to look up and look out the window, the Emilia in the distance...

The Emilia in the distance is almost exactly the same as the white old ship in the old photo displayed on the mobile phone screen!

"Same..." Gongsun was surprised, "Is the Emilia designed based on this photo?"

"It's very similar? It's just that the original ship does not have the English characters of the Emilia." Jiang Ping said, "This photo was taken in the Western Pacific Ocean around 2003 before Mario disappeared. Mario's notes have a description of the ship. It said that it was very hot that day, the temperature on the deck was close to fifty degrees, the sun was scorching, and the blue water was very calm. The ghost ship he found basically appeared in rainy weather, so that day he just took a telescope and a camera to track and photograph a few dolphins. But just when he was holding the telescope and trying to find out if there were islands nearby... he found this white cruise ship."

"Well..." Zhan Zhao stared at the photo, "No matter how you look at this ship, it is a modern ship, but you can't tell how big it is without any reference."

Gongsun also nodded, "If the Emilia is a physical object, it should be a wooden sailboat, right?"

Everyone nodded, are the limitations of the times?

"What's next?" Bai Yutang asked Jiang Ping

Jiang Ping continued to read Mario's notes, "This ship appeared very strangely. It was not a waterway in front, back, left and right, and there were many reefs in the area where it was located. The strangest thing was that the ship looked lifeless, with no one on the ship, and the hull was mottled, obviously drifting with the ocean current without purpose. At that time, Mario knew that he must have encountered a ghost ship, or a special ghost ship."

Everyone nodded - it was special enough.

"But because the angle is not very good, he couldn't take a better photo after taking a photo, so he turned around and chased the ghost ship." Jiang Ping said this, his voice lowered a little, as if he wanted to mobilize the atmosphere. "When he crossed the reef group and tried his best to get closer to the ship, something strange happened."

"Hurry up and say, don't suck your appetite!" Bai Yutang urged.

Jiang Ping pointed out another photo, which was a page of a diary written in Arabic, and saw several lines of key points drawn above, which might have been highlighted by Jiang Ping for Bai Yutang and the others with a computer.

Zhan Zhao leaned over and took a look, frowned, "Mario said he saw a woman at the bow of the boat."

Everyone was stunned, "There is someone on the boat?"

"Hey, is it the plot of the ghost ship movie the same?" Gongsun was excited, "A little girl came out to stop him from getting on the ship or something?"

"Gongsun, you have watched too many movies." Jiang Ping poured cold water on him, "But reality is much more dramatic than movies."

Gongsun was puzzled. At this time, everyone looked at Zhan Zhao and saw that his expression was a little complicated. Then he translated, "Mario said that he saw the woman walking to the bow of the boat, and then, others came over one after another. There were men, women, old and young people in the crowd, all lined up behind the railings of the bow, and many people were still crying."

Everyone was puzzled, "Tearing?"

"I know." Ma Xin asked, "Did their ship die and hit Mario's ship and think he was saved?"

Everyone nodded again - there is this possibility.

"None are not." Zhan Zhao said. "When Mario was studying whether the person or ghost in front of him, a gunshot suddenly broke out, and one of them had a head exploded."

After Zhan Zhao finished speaking, everyone was stunned.

Gongsun cleaned his ears, "What's the thrilling situation?"

Zhan Zhao shrugged and continued, "Then he heard the successive gunshots, and the people standing by the boat were executed by bullets shot from behind...just in front of him."

Bai Yutang was stunned for a while and said, "Is it a pirate?"

Zhan Zhao nodded, "Mario said that after he saw those people on the boat being executed, a masked man walked to the side of the boat with a gun and kicked the body into the sea. He saw him and shot at his boat. Fortunately, he was not too close, so he turned around and ran away... and escaped. After staying away, he found that there were several pirate ships parked behind the boat, and he was not very clear about what happened afterwards."

Everyone was stunned when they heard this - such a coincidence was really shocking.

Zhan Zhao looked back at the photo again, "In a sense, this should be the last moment before this ship became a ghost ship, right?"

Jiang Ping nodded, "That's right, so this photo was named "The Last Minute" when it was exhibited at Mario's personal photo exhibition."

Everyone was silent - at the last moment? Why did the Emilia look exactly the same as its appearance? But no matter which name is, it is not very auspicious!
