There are so many unsolved mysteries about raw energy.
Different from the "dynamic vision" awakened by the sniper, that woman's characteristic ability is obviously more complex.
In other words - more "obscure".
The woman seemed to be invisible. Only Xu Cheng could see her, and she was not even visible in the eyes of others.
But the touch on his shoulder just now proved that that woman was by no means an illusion, but a reality!
Xu Cheng looked around and saw a woman on a seat not far away.
The woman's expression was relaxed, as if to say that Xu Cheng was no match for her.
Xu Cheng thought for a moment, then suddenly raised his suitcase and gestured to the woman.
Then, turn around and leave!
In Xu Cheng's peripheral vision, the woman's expression was obviously stunned.
She was surprised by Xu Cheng's behavior and couldn't believe that the other party would choose to turn around and run away at this time?!
She quickly got up from her seat and chased after him.
And just when the woman passed by the railing where Xu Cheng was just now, she suddenly stopped.
Looking at the traces left on the railing, the woman seemed to understand what Xu Cheng meant.
On the steel railing, there is a clearly visible trace of the palm, which was shaped into the shape by the strange force of a hand!
Xu Cheng’s meaning is simple and clear——
The woman's purpose is the original energy block in Xu Cheng's suitcase.
The first attempt a woman made for this purpose was "stealing".
It can be concluded from this that the woman does not seem to be able - or does not want to have a head-on conflict with Xu Cheng!
Is the frontal combat effectiveness too weak? Or are you worried about something?
Xu Cheng doesn't know, but now that he understands this situation, it's not difficult to deal with women's characteristics.
Just hold the suitcase tightly to prevent the woman from stealing it, and then turn around and leave.
If a woman wants to get the suitcase, she must take it away from Xu Cheng!
The grip marks on the steel fence just prove that Xu Cheng's "hand strength" is strong enough to twist the steel plate and crush the woman's hand bones!
Use defense as offense and use stillness as brake.
…
In the blink of an eye, Xu Cheng was back by Qianqian's side, still holding his suitcase in his hand.
He looked up, and sure enough, he spotted the woman's figure at the corner in the distance.
Her hand touched the twisted railing, her expression changed several times, and she finally gave up the urge to snatch the suitcase and waved her hand towards Xu Cheng.
That means "goodbye".
Then he left the corridor and disappeared.
Just at this time.
Woo——!!!
There was a noise from the New Wuming, the escalator for boarding had already been put away, and the entire large cruise ship began to slowly leave the port.
A one-day and two-night offshore trip began.
The announcement on the ship also rang at the right time.
"Hello fellow passengers, I am the captain of the New Wuming and I am responsible for everyone's safety during this trip."
"Now the Xinwuming is about to speed up. Passengers on the deck please pay attention to safety."
"We will arrive at the scheduled route at dusk, when the New Wuming will enter the slow sailing stage."
"There will be no large-scale activities on the first night. Everyone can enjoy the various entertainment facilities on the Xinwuming."
"But please stay alert, because the next day, the grand carnival will begin!"
"Party until midnight to celebrate the successful conclusion of this journey. The New Wuming will return to Haicheng Port in the early morning of the third day."
"Well, please enjoy your journey."
Xu Cheng fetched a glass of wine while listening to the radio.
Drinking strong wine and looking at the sea.
Xu Cheng suddenly felt that the situation on the Xinwuming was no different from that on the "seabed".
There is also an undercurrent surging!
Captains, women, Han Xing, and perhaps more people... and "non-humans".
…
The New Wuming was moving at full speed and was far away from the port without realizing it.
After some time, the land was no longer visible.
The setting sun at dusk made the sea surface a fiery red, as if the entire sea was burning.
Qianqian felt a little hungry, so she went back to the room first to put her luggage, and then went to the restaurant to eat.
Xu Chengze drank in silence alone.
Occasionally, he would find traces of the woman in a corner of his sight.
She still didn't give up on her goal, but now she obviously didn't know what to do, so she completely disappeared not long after.
The sky was getting darker and the view gradually became invisible, so people watching the scenery on the deck left one after another.
Xu Cheng was alone, drinking wine and silently looking at the dark sea.
Suddenly, a faint sound of an engine reached Xu Cheng's ears.
The sound originates from the sea.
Xu Cheng leaned out and looked around, and saw a medium-sized speedboat approaching from a distance and approaching the Xin Wuming.
The cabin door on one side of the lower deck of the New Wuming was opened, and a horizontal ladder stretched out from it, connecting it to the speedboat.
About dozens of people stepped out of the speedboat, and with the help of the crew, boarded the Xinwuming via the horizontal ladder.
Those people were very well-dressed and had a particularly outstanding temperament, as if they were attending a dinner party.
And at the end, Xu Cheng saw a familiar figure——
"Old Man" Shen Yan.
He actually came to the Xin Wuming, and he secretly followed many people on a speedboat!
At this moment, the old man looked around and unexpectedly caught Xu Cheng's gaze.
He raised his left hand without any trace, facing Xu Cheng with his palm, and stretched out his index finger and middle finger.
Xu Cheng understood that it was not a code at all, and its meaning was very simple——
Yeah~~~
The old man is saying hello.
"Um……"
Xu Cheng thought for a moment, drank the whiskey in the glass in one gulp, and left the deck.
…
Xu Cheng wanted to talk to the old man.
But the identity of the woman was unknown, and Xu was worried that he was being followed, so he simply walked back to his room.
Qianqian lives next door and seems to have not returned from the restaurant yet.
Xu Cheng pretended to go to the restaurant to find his daughter. He made a large circle on the cruise ship to make sure that he was not being followed, and then came to the top suite of the cruise ship.
With a few jumps, Xu Cheng arrived at the balcony of one of the rooms.
There is a one-way glass in front of you, so you can't see what's going on in the room. Obviously, this room has excellent confidentiality features.
The glass door opened and the old man appeared in front of Xu Cheng.
This familiar Lezi man seemed to have not seen Xu Cheng for a long time, so he came up and gave him a warm hug.
Xu Cheng was only interested in the bottle of good wine on the table next to him.
The two of them drank wine and started talking in the room.
After all, given their age, they would certainly not mince words when speaking, and almost every sentence was exchanging information points that the two of them had.
The old man explained: "I found out about the Star Chamber of Commerce, so I wanted to get in touch and find out their background."
The old man took out his fan and said, "Originally, when I gave my family the invitation letter for the championship, I wanted her to bring the young man named Han Xing with her, but I didn't expect that the last person to come would be you!"
Xu Cheng took a sip of wine and said, "Xiao Han is here too - through another method."
The old man nodded, "This ship was rebuilt by the Star Chamber of Commerce."
Xu Cheng was a little confused, "Why did they copy an old ship?"
"I'm talking about - rebuild."
The old man grinned, "Because according to my information, the original Wuming account was also funded by the Star Chamber of Commerce."
Xu Cheng thought silently, waiting for the old man's next words.
"Most of the people who came with me are wealthy people from all walks of life across the country, and there are also some well-known figures in their respective fields, such as writers, painters, musicians..."
The old man said: "According to the Star Chamber of Commerce, we are the 'passengers' on this New Wuming."
As soon as he said this, Xu Cheng asked in confusion: "Then who are those of us who board the ship normally?"
The old man shrugged his shoulders, "Besides crew members and passengers, what else do you think there is on a ship?"
Xu Cheng's pupils shrank slightly.
Two words popped into his mind.
The old man's tone also became darker, and he took the first step and said quietly:
"For this New Wuming, except for the dozens of people in the speedboat who are 'passengers', everyone else is 'cargo'!"
Such remarks can even be said to be a bit scary.
Star Chamber of Commerce divides people into "passengers" and "cargo".
What exactly are they going to do? And why do they have to rebuild a cruise ship of the same name that has already been built before?
Xu Cheng thought about it and asked curiously: "You didn't bring a bodyguard?"
The elderly need the protection of young people. After all, not all elderly people have a good physique like Xu Cheng.
The old man waved his hand and said, "The Star Chamber of Commerce only allows us to come here in person."
Xu Chengdao: "Isn't that very dangerous?"
The old man asked back: "Isn't it you?"
Xu Cheng narrowed his eyes and asked: "We are all of the same age, why should I protect you?"
"No, no, no, you misunderstood."
The old man shook his head repeatedly.
He smiled, his eyes narrowed into slits:
"What I mean is: as long as you are on this ship, the Star Chamber of Commerce will be in a more dangerous situation than me."
