Chapter 130 - Eating Fish (1/2)
Playing with them was impossible. It was something that would never happen in this lifetime.
Qin Mu Yin was tossed around until he was completely dizzy. He even suspected that these skeletons did it deliberately to torture him.
This thought of his was entirely possible if you considered the fact that he had exposed their secrets earlier.
Su Min touched three of the skeletons. Their movements were very mechanical, and they were completely motionless. Only their arms raised and lowered, like robots in an amusement park.
Like this, Qin Mu Yin flew around in their hands.
Su Min coughed a few times and patted one of the skeletons’ arms, “Don’t play anymore. If you continue, you might get into trouble.”
And so, the skeletons obediently stopped.
Qin Mu Yin was ecstatic., “Why the hell do these things listen to you? Aren’t we both humans?”
How could there be such a big difference between them?
Su Min patted the shoulders of the remaining two skeletons. One by one, they stopped and the last of the skeletons threw Qin MuYin away just before it stopped.
“AHHHH———-”
Qin Mu Yin fell to the ground.
Fortunately, the skeleton wasn’t tall so he only hurt his butt slightly.
Qin Mu Yin timidly hid behind Su Min, “There’s something wrong with these things. Look, they’re not doing anything to you.”
Su Min said: “Maybe my face is more popular than yours.”
Qin Mu Yin: “I can tell.”
So annoying. They actually did something like that to him. He wasn’t even a three-year-old boy.
If it wasn’t for Su Min coming over to save him, he would probably be the first in the world to die from something like this.
After the three skeletons stopped, they remained motionless.
Su Min looked around. They were actually no different from the one earlier. Their bodies were human-like and they also wore normal human clothing. It had just become very worn out with time.
One of the three skeletons was female, and the rest are male. They appeared to be of different ages.
It was very random.
Su Min shared his information: “There were two skeletons on my end. Adding the three here and the one from earlier, there are a total of six.”
Qin Mu Yin: “Six?”
The number didn’t seem special.
He suddenly remembered, “Aren’t there exactly twelve people on board? If you included the two who didn’t appear, then there is a total of twenty people.”
Su Min nodded, “That’s right.”
Qin Mu Yin wondered: “Disregarding that, how did these people end up in this state right now?”
Was this some kind of experiment?
Su Min pointed to one of the skeletons hands, “Look here. It looks like it was air dried. From the state of the clothes, it has probably been a only a few years.”
Hearing this, Qin Mu Yin reached out to touch it.
Because the ship is at sea, it is rather humid. The clothes looked like they had been soaked for a very long time and would break off as soon as you pinch it.
If it had been many years, the clothes would probably be long gone. It wouldn’t be hanging off their bodies like this.
Qin Mu Yin thought for a moment, “Could this be their victims? Would Nan Nan and Yishu be here?”
As he said that, he got ready to search for them.
Su Min didn’t stop him, “I haven’t seen Song Nan Nan or Tang Yishu. They’re probably not the same as these people.”
He could think of a number of scenarios.
Why are the people on this ship rescuing people from the sea?
Who exactly are these skeletons?
Where did Song Nan Nan and Tang Yishu go?
If they could figure out the identity of these skeletons and the reason for them becoming like this, they would have probably solved the case. Song Nan Nan and Tang Yishu’s whereabouts would also be revealed.
Su Min felt that these skeletons must be very close with the people on the ship. Perhaps their acts of saving people from the sea had something to do with these skeletons.
Qin Mu Yin ran out from the other end, “Scared me to death. There are so many skeletons inside. My god, it’s too terrifying.”
Su Min reminded him: “There’s actually only three.”
Qin Mu Yin complained: “Is three not enough? How many did you want? Did you want a thousand soldiers and horses like those terracotta warriors?”
Su Min laughed, “Then the unlucky one would be you.”
Qin Mu Yin: “……….”
He thought back to when he was thrown around by the skeletons.
Let’s forget about the terracotta warriors.
If there were thousands of skeletons here, he would probably be thrown to his death before he could return back to the hands of the first skeleton.
Qin Mu Yin shuddered and shook off those strange thoughts, “Should we check and see if there’s anything else in here?”
Su Min nodded, “Yeah.”
This time, Qin Mu Yin followed closely behind Su Min. He no longer dared to separate from him fearing that he would be caught again.
The skeletons stood silently in place.
When they passed by one of them, Qin Mu Yin couldn’t help but touch it. The moment his fingers came into contact, the clothes in the skeleton fell off.
Qin Mu Yin: “…….”
He should keep his hands to himself.
Hearing the noise, Su Min looked back, “Let’s see if they have any form of ID on them.”
The four here were easy to search. Their clothes were tattered so things could easily be found.
Later, Su Min once again returned into the darkness.
The two skeletons here were a little difficult to search but it was still okay. After searching around for a long time, he finally managed to find something.
It was something rectangular about the size of his palm.
