“Who is there!?”
“Are you afraid?” Qian Guoliang sneered. “Unfortunately, I never talk to guys of unknown origin.”
The man with a mask smiled slightly, “Uncle, honest people don’t speak in riddles. Your skill definitely means you’re not an ordinary person… You probably came for something?”
“Then, who are you?” Qian Guoliang pushed the person to the railing as if he wanted to push the person down the railing, but the man in the mask held his foot against it.
Qian Guoliang sneered, “This sideline interest… I’m afraid you’re the gentleman on the beam [1].”
The man with the mask chuckled and said, “Uncle, you are a gentleman on the ground but without the freedom and leisure of us being on the beam.”
“Why should I believe you?”
“Do you think you have a choice?” The masked man smiled and said. “If we continue this way, neither of us can escape.”
After the crewman left, the two figures dropped effortlessly from the pipes above in the dark. The moment Qian Guoliang was on the ground, he immediately attacked the masked man.
“Uncle, trying this again?” The masked man seemed well prepared and easily blocked off Qian Guoliang’s attack.
Qian Guoliang withdrew from attacking and said indifferently, “Leave this place first, and then we’ll talk.”
“What treasure?” said Qian Guoliang indifferently. “I don’t quite understand what you are saying.”
“Then, what are you sneakily looking for in the engine room?”
“I’m an engineer. I am just looking for reference and to find some inspiration in the engine room.”
The man in the mask said, “Engineer… being an engineer is good. It’s a highly paid profession. Then, you be your engineer. I’ll be my gentleman on the beam. We mind our own business. However, uncle, let me make it clear first. If I find the object, don’t come and pursue me… Anyway, like you said, you are just an engineer. Bye.”
The masked man turned away from Qian Guoliang.
Qian Guoliang said indifferently, “Cooperation is possible, but I must know what’s that you have on hand.”
“What about you?” the masked man asked rhetorically.
“Say together.” Qian Guoliang shook his head.
“I count one, two, three.” The masked man nodded.
“This protractor. If I’m not wrong, it should be the only tool that can interpret this blueprint in your hand,” said Qian Guoliang indifferently.
The masked man was surprised and said, “It’s such a coincidence. This is truly a fated meeting … Can the legend of the Baiyu Cruise Ship really be true?”
“Huh, you are not even sure about the treasure and yet you dare to come here so casually?”
The masked man unconsciously touched his bag. Then, he suddenly laughed, and he removed the mask on his face… The young man, about twenty-seven or eighty years old, introduced himself, “Uncle, let me introduce myself again, my name is Fei Ying.”
“Qian Guoliang.”
Fei Ying glanced at Qian Guoliang and smiled indifferently, “Since this is such a coincidence, with you and I both have important things to search for independently, it seems that our cooperation is really… destined. Let’s find a place and unlock this thirty-year secret?”
“Alright then.” Qian Guoliang nodded, but returned the pendant to his clothes.
The two entered the cabin one after the other.
At this moment, Luo Qiu smiled and said, “This is really in response to what Li Zi said. A deception battle unfolded for the treasure hunters to meet at sea.”
“I wonder what this treasure is.” You Ye gradually smiled.
However, Boss Luo’s sight looked elsewhere instead… Before he saw Qian Guoliang and Fei Ying, he was looking somewhere here.
Lights, camcorders, microphones, several men and women, and the old captain whom Luo Qiu had met… and the man in his thirties who had an argument with the old captain.
The cruise ship that was about to retire, as well as the old captain who had served onboard the ship for thirty years was about to retire as well… Probably they wanted to make a touching episode.
The public audience always yearned for episodes that were enriched with sentiments.
However, the old captain did not seem to like the camera very much. Even when sitting in front of the camera, he was expressionless… or even with an expression of resistance.
The son of the old captain who sat next to him was also the deputy captain of Baiyu Cruise Ship, looked at the camera with a smile on his face, “I was adopted by my father from an early age… Father is a busy person. Almost all of his life was dedicated to this Baiyu Cruise Ship. So, I can say that I grew up on this Baiyu Cruise Ship…Baiyu Cruise Ship can be considered to be my home…”
At this moment, the old captain suddenly stood up and turned away without saying a word.
“Hopefully there will be a good outcome tomorrow.” The director nodded and then led the people to pack the tools and leave.
Deputy Captain Mu frowned. His face sank slightly, and he chased in the direction of the old captain when he left.
