Chapter 124 - Suspect (1/2)

The storm at sea left as quickly as it came.

Qin Mu Yin wanted to follow them in. He whispered: “Should we go and see what they do to that person?”

Su Min restored his line of sight, “Okay.”

He also wanted to take a closer look. Were these people intending on saving or harming that person?

Because he was all wet, the bespectacled middle-aged man didn’t put that person in a room and instead left him in the hall.

“He probably fainted. Let’s change his clothes first or he will catch a cold. If he gets a fever, it won’t be good.”

“We should take him to a room.”

“Look at his purple lips. Sigh, he must have been in the water for a long time. I feel sorry for him.”

“Have you notified the captain? Is the captain coming?”

As they discussed, the captain pushed the door open. The moment he saw the person lying there he hurriedly said: “What are you all doing? Go and change his clothes. After all this time why don’t you know what to do?”

As soon as he said that, the bespectacled middle-aged man immediately brought the rescued man downstairs.

The captain then said: “What are you doing loitering around? Go back and do your own things. Do you still want to go outside?”

The man with the buzzcut: “I still do, still do.”

Several people returned to the deck. Two followed down to the rooms while the rest stayed behind to continue their discussion about fishing.

The captain then turned around and finally noticed Su Min and the others. He said: “You also saw it?”

Qin Mu Yin nodded, “Saw it. Captain, you guys are all really good people.”

Hearing his praise, the captain smiled, “Never mind being the good guy. When it comes to rescuing someone, who wouldn’t hesitate?”

As he spoke, his stomach shook.

It was Su Min’s first time seeing such a large belly. He couldn’t help but glance at it a few more times.

Qin Mu Yin said: “Yeah, we are also alive thanks to you captain.”

The captain waved his hand, “It’s okay, it’s just what we wanted to do. How has your stay so far been?”

Qin Mu Yin: “It’s been good. It’s just———”

Just as he wanted to talk about the disappearance of Tang Yishu and Song Nan Nan, the captain very quickly added: “I should go cook. That person should eat something hot when he wakes up. I’ll head off first.”

As soon as the captain finished saying that, he turned and left. He didn’t have any intention to listen to the rest of Qin Mu Yin’s words. In a blink of an eye, he had disappeared behind the door.

Su Min said: “He did it deliberately. There’s no point asking.”

Qin Mu Yin sighed, “I was just……..”

He was just holding onto his last strand of hope and was unwilling to believe everything that had happened. Afterall, all along he had been living in a society were science and logic prevailed.

Even killings like these were only seen on the news.

The idea that the people who had saved him actually had the intention to harm him was something that he could think of but couldn’t accept.

Xia He Yin looked around, “Let’s stop standing around and hurry down. Maybe we’ll see something.”

Su Ying nodded her head in agreement.

If they went downstairs, they would make sounds, so they let Su Ying go first. Because she is currently a nine-year-old child, even if she is seen it wouldn’t raise their suspicions.

Although Su Ying is physically young, her mental age isn’t.

She lightened her steps and tip-toed down the stairs. She then went straight to the rooms that were not currently being used by them.

She quickly managed to find the right one.

Perhaps it was because they didn’t expect them to come down, or perhaps it was because they had forgotten, the door wasn’t locked and it was even slightly opened.

Su Ying beckoned to Su Min.

When Su Min walked over, he could easily hear the movements and discussions inside.

“………He doesn’t look to be in good shape.”

It was the voice of the man with the beer belly.

Su Min remembered him. Every time he spoke, he would speak weakly. His beer belly couldn’t be compared to the captains, but it was still larger than most people.

Soon after was the voice of the bespectacled middle-aged man: “It’s fine as long as he isn’t dead. If he’s not in good shape, we can help him get better. Don’t worry.”

The beer bellied man said: “Then you have to take good care of him.”

The bespectacled middle-aged man quickly said: “Don’t worry, I won’t let him die. This is a one in a hundred opportunity. I won’t give up.”

Their conversation wasn’t clear nor was it vague.

All four of them were at the door. Su Min waved to Qin Mu Yin and them to leave while Su Ying stood on the other side.

Qin Mu Yin understood his gestures and entered his room with Xia He Yin.

The noises inside the room continued.

The man with the beer belly sighed and said: “This person’s body is not as good as the person from two days ago. Look at his skin. But I guess it’s okay.”

The bespectacled middle-aged man helped change his clothes: “Don’t ask for too much. I also want them, but do you think I have a chance?”

Not a chance.

He wasn’t qualified.

The man with the beer belly said: “That’s true. In any case, congratulations. You can sleep well tonight.”

The bespectacled middle-aged man smiled. He sat by the bed and said: “I knew the weather would be good today the moment I woke up. As expected, I received a surprise like this.”

“…………..”

Su Min listened to their conversation as he crouched by the wall. He felt that a lot of their secrets had been exposed.

He quietly pushed the door open.

The man’s beer belly came into view. He stood at the end of the bed with his back facing the door. He just happened to be standing between them and the door.
