Chapter 130 - Eating Fish (2/2)

Su Min took it out and was about to go back to the centre of the room to take a closer look at it when he suddenly heard noises coming from the door outside. It was Xia He Yin’s voice: “Ying Ying, don’t move.”

She said it very urgently.

Su Min quickly hid it inside his clothes and called out to Qin Mu Yin: “Let’s go. Someone’s here. Hurry and leave.”

In fact, they weren’t far from the door.

Within a few seconds, the two were out. Qin Mu Yin handed the lock over and Su Min quickly relocked it. The whole thing only took about ten seconds.

They were so nervous; their palms were a little sweaty.

Xia He Yin and Su Ying stood by the side of the ship where they passed by earlier so that they could see the people on the deck in the distance.

Su Ying leaned against the railing.

Xia He Yin held onto her nervously. Someone then came by, “What are you doing here?”

Qin Mu Yin was fiddling with something on the ground. He looked up, “Aren’t you guys fishing there? We were afraid of disturbing you.”

The one who came was the tall and thin man. He rarely interacted with them.

The tall and thin man looked calmly at the door. When he saw that the lock was still in place, he looked away and said: “We probably won’t be able to catch anything today.”

Qin Mu Yin pretended to be disappointed, “Then we won’t be able to eat fish.”

The tall and thin man stopped. He then revealed a smile, “Why? Did you really want to eat fish? Do you like fish?”

Qin Mu Yin felt that his smile was a little strange, “It’s okay. My mother likes to make braised fish. I only eat what she makes.”

The tall and thin man smiled, “You’ll be able to eat that when you get back.”

He then looked over at Su Min. Su Min was bending over helping Su Ying rearrange her clothes. He behaved very normally.

Xia He Yin’s hair was all ruffled up by the wind, “Let’s go back. It’s so cold outside. I want to go back to our room.”

Being watched outside was a bit scary.

Su Min said: “Okay.”

The tall and thin man nodded and said: “Yes, it’s too cold outside. It wouldn’t be good if you got sick. You should go back and rest.”

One after another, they returned to the deck and then went inside.

The tall and thin man remained on the deck.

The man with the buzzcut came over and asked: “What were they doing here?”

The tall and thin man shook his head while he continued to stare through the glass, “The door is fine. They were probably just wandering around.”

“They won’t be that clever.” The bespectacled middle-aged man said: “They’re probably still feeling fortunate that they were rescued.”

Normal people would think this way.

After returning, Qin Mu Yin pushed open the door, “Let’s go to my room.”

Su Min who entered last subconsciously glanced at the stairs. No one was peeping.

The room’s soundproofing was pretty good.

Xia He Yin’s hands were trembling, “Scared me to death. When that person came over, I called out, but I was also afraid of getting their attention.”

In the end, Su Ying was clever.

Fortunately, they had already come out when the tall and thin man came over.

In fact, Xia He Yin had always been paying attention to their actions over on the deck. They had been both intentionally and unintentionally glancing over at them since the very beginning and was just staying put.

“I saw them chatting with each other. They were probably talking about us.” Xia He Yin recalled back, “And then the tall and thin man came over.”

Fortunately, the ship was rather large so it would take at least ten seconds for them to get from the deck to where they were. If it wasn’t for that, they would have been caught.

Su Ying ruffled her hair and said: “That tall and thin man glanced at the door. He must have been afraid of us going in.”

Children easily noticed these small details.

The tall and thin man probably thought no one noticed this action of his but she had noticed it a long time ago.

Su Min said, “It’s because it holds their secrets.”

Though he didn’t know why these people didn’t get rid of those skeletons.

Qin Mu Yin rubbed his hands, “Let’s not talk about this.”

Xia He Yin nodded, “Or did you find something? Was Nan Nan and Tang Yishu in there?”

Su Min and Qin Mu Ying checked the room first before recounting everything that had happened inside.

Xia He Yin who heard this couldn’t help but gasp.

She had never seen skeletons before and had only heard it from Qin Mu Yin but she felt as if she had seen it with her own eyes. She would have probably been scared to the point of crying if she saw them.

On the contrary, Su Ying appeared regretful, “If I knew this, it would have been nice if I also went in to take a look. I actually missed out.”

It was no good being a child.

Xia He Yin: “………….”

She couldn’t be compared to a child. She felt really ashamed.

Qin Mu Yin asked: “Did you find something in the end?”

“I did.” Su Min pulled something out from his pocket, “I found this from one of the skeletons.”

Fortunately, the clothes he wore had large pockets and the thing he found wasn’t too big so it could easily be hidden.

He had wanted to find something that may give him a clue about the skeleton’s identity but in the end he had taken it without having a chance to look at it carefully.

Xia He Yin asked curiously, “What is it?”

Su Ying could see it clearly from below, “It looks like those small notebooks. The one that are only palm sized.”

Qin Mu Yin guessed: “Is it a diary?”

The so-called sailing diary.

Qin Mu Yin was thrilled when he thought of this, “If that is the case, then it would record everything that had happened. It will have everything we want to know.”

Su Min said: “We’ll know once we open it.”

He blew off the dust. This notebook was quite filthy, and the edges were ragged. He was afraid of accidentally breaking it.

Xia He Yin and the others held their breaths. They watched Su Min slowly open the notebook without even daring to blink.
