Chapter 1185 Bad Night

She put on the dress that her father bought for her. After rummaging through her luggage, she managed to find a set of jewelry that she had randomly stuffed in at her father's request before departure. Finally, she made an urgent call to her cousin for advice on how to put on makeup.

Thank goodness there are cosmetics shops on cruise ships.

In short, all methods have been exhausted.

Lina created a miracle!

As the evening began, the girls in their best attire practically glowed.

And successfully attracted all the baboons in the audience!

Andre, the father, stood behind, looking at this scene, he couldn't help but want to wipe away tears.

My daughter has grown up!

But at the same time, I felt the urge to rush to buy a shotgun online.

——Let’s see which desperate little bastard dares to hook up with his own baby!

The conflicting feelings of such anticipation and uneasiness are really difficult to describe.

Fortunately, throughout the night, my daughter seemed to be looking around, wandering around, not paying attention to anyone's invitations.

Even...even the buffet, which was so focused on in the past, didn't even bother to take a look.

It wasn't until after the party that he returned to his room angrily without saying anything, leaving him as a father completely unaware of what happened.

"What else could happen?" The sister on the phone laughed like a goose: "Lina has grown up and has fallen in love with men! You idiot!"

man? !

What a man!

Half an hour after Andre hung up the phone, he clicked the order reminder function for online shopping for shotguns for the sixteenth time!

I wish I could just ask the other party to deliver my luxurious gold-plated double-barreled shotgun with sixteen rounds of elephant hunting ammunition to me today via helicopter.

Sharpening the knife——

Let me, Kangkang, be the reckless bad guy who dares to hook up with his own little cutie!

"Don't ask, Dad, it's none of your business."

Every time I was asked about a relevant topic, the smile on my daughter's mouth would disappear immediately when she was distracted, and she would become depressed, lying on the table or getting under the quilt without speaking.

The girl who was depressed for several days almost searched the entire Turquoise account, but could never find the person she was looking for.

Until she couldn't help it anymore and ran to the concierge to check the passenger list directly.

"Huai Shi?"

The staff member showed confusion, and after some searching, he turned the computer screen to show her: "Sorry, Ms. Lina, this name is not on the passenger list.

There are only four Asian passengers on our voyage from Russia to America this time, and there is no Mr. Huai you are looking for.

Maybe you made a mistake somewhere—"

"No, there's absolutely nothing wrong with the name."

Lina emphasized: "And there are other syllables for bad things, kaiseki, and you can look for them."

"Well……"

The staff member had an expression that was hard to explain, and there was also a fleeting look of helplessness, which was clearly captured by Lina.

This guy must know something!

She used the negotiation skills she learned from her father and pressed forward step by step.

Until finally, the lady's mouth was finally opened.

It's actually not that troublesome.

Just holding her arms and acting coquettishly, the lady who had a daughter of the same age began to waver.

"Okay, Miss Lina, I admit, I have heard of this name."

The manager sighed, "But you must have made a mistake, because if my memory serves me well, the Mr. Huaishi you are talking about is not a musician, but the shipping company to which the Turquoise belongs - —Chairman of 'Danbo International Shipping Group'..."

As she spoke, she took out a thick book from the cabinet: "If you are interested in this, we have a corporate culture booklet here. Maybe you can find what you want in it."

"never mind……"

Lina shook her head in frustration, turned and left.

I don’t even want to look at it.

Tamba? Shipping group? Chairman?

The image of a rickety old Yingzhou man in a robe has already appeared before his eyes... Is it wrong to expect to find a stranger to whom he has only briefly spoken a few words in a shabby book about corporate culture?

She even wondered if that person's existence was her hallucination.

Too many hallucinations.

The strange faces on the bark of the trees, the shrill laughter echoing in the cemetery, the occasional malicious glances seen in the reflection of the school sink, and the strange shadows attached to other people... She has long been accustomed to it.

The psychiatrist told her that this was all her hallucination.

Because she was too young when her mother passed away, her heart was traumatized.

Perhaps, the so-called name Huaishi is just a conjecture that I came up with after accidentally seeing the booklet.

Together with that dreamlike encounter.

The psychiatrist has seriously warned that once a similar situation occurs, you must contact the hospital for medication. But how could she go to seek medical treatment in the vast sea?

I could only lie lazily on the sofa in the room, and didn't even participate in outside activities.

Don't want to see anything.

Until she woke up from her late night sleep with a sudden awakening.

wrong.

Something is wrong——

It should be said that it is not you who is wrong, but this ship!

From the moment he boarded this ship, that weird feeling lingered in his mind, and now, the high-pitched neighing like a whale's scream once again emerged from his memories.

Under the crimson moonlight that gradually appeared at some point, she couldn't help but feel a chill.

Creepy.

When the halo and illusion brought about by the chance encounter disappeared, and recalling what she had seen and felt along the way, she could only draw one conclusion - there was something wrong here!

But is this a figment of his own mental trauma or a more terrifying truth? She could no longer judge, but instinctively wanted to ask her father for help.

But when she knocked on the door for a long time without getting a response, she opened the door and found that her father was still snoring loudly.

No matter how much she pushed, called, or even pricked her fingertips, she couldn't wake him up.

Under the dim red moon, the middle-aged man turned over in his dream, and a smile that made Lina tremble appeared at the corner of his mouth.

It's like everything is perfect in a dream, so happy.

In the dead silence, the girl fell into a daze.

Only the screams in the nightmare were heard, coming from the distance again!

There were deep footsteps fading away from the door.

The sound of the friction of clothing was mixed inside, as if something heavy was being dragged...

Trembling, Lina stood up from her huddle and mustered up her courage.

No, we can't go on like this...

Muddy moonlight shines through the window into the corridor.

The silent cruise ship was filled with a dead silence and cold like a tomb.

Lina rubbed her arms, curled up in the corner, and secretly spied - those puppets, who were naive, gentle and cute during the day, walked stiffly at night, wandering between the dark cabins without light.

The crystal-embellished pupils were empty.

As if on patrol, looking for any movement of living creatures.

But all the security guards and sailors have disappeared - the deck, theater, restaurant and even the concierge desk, the whole world seems to have died, and he is the only living person breathing out pale mist.

But seeing those weird and spooky puppets, Lina couldn't help but suspect that she was about to follow in the footsteps of others.

She began to regret why she came out.

It might be better to stay in the cabin.

But when the familiar scream came again, she couldn't help but tremble again.

There is nothing I can do to tremble, and there is nowhere to go in the vast sea, even if I want to escape.

Only the cold moonlight mocked silently.

When she finally mustered up the courage to walk into the cabin, avoiding the patrolling puppets, and walking into the warehouse where the screams came from...the puppets coming from the other side of the corner almost made her scream. Speak up!

The pink and tender bear doll, with a bow on its head, dragged a thick cloth bag and almost walked towards her!

The originally naive face was covered in scarlet, and thick blood was constantly dripping from its body and the cloth bag in her hand.

As if he noticed something, the blood bear sniffed the lingering scent of perfume in the air suspiciously and looked around.

But after all, he didn't notice Lina hiding behind the table.

Heavy footsteps left.

Lina swallowed, looked at the hatch extending towards the bloody door, trembling, and walked up step by step...

Through the crack in the door, she saw a nightmare that she would never be able to shake off in her life.

From the unfolded container, bound by countless chains, thick tentacles extended out from the darkness, twitching, and the huge mouthparts screamed, spreading out a series of screams that no one could hear.

In the midst of the blood, each puppet was holding a chainsaw and various sharp knives, cutting up the monster in the warehouse in an extremely cruel way.

The scarlet color spreads.

And as if he noticed something, his eyes suddenly turned back and looked at Lina behind the crack in the door.

Lina opened her mouth, wanting to scream.

But soon, she reacted and reached out to cover her mouth to stifle the scream in her heart.

But there was a cold hand that was faster than her reaction.

Covered her face.

Pulling her backwards.

Lina's heart instantly went cold and she trembled. She wanted to struggle and resist, but when she turned around, she felt as if she was hallucinating again.

I saw that face that I have been looking for these days.

"Shh!"

The man named Huai Shi hugged her, raised his finger and brought it to his lips. His dark eyes seemed to be shining with stars, making Lina stunned.

"Calm down." Huai Shi whispered.

After a long time in the corner, Lina finally calmed down and couldn't help but burst into tears: "What's going on? How could it become like this..."

"This is not the place to talk, ma'am."

Huai Shi let go of her hand and took a step back: "Follow me."

Lina nodded vigorously, held the corner of his clothes, and followed him.

She didn't say anything else along the way, she just wiped her tears quietly, not because of fear, but because of the joy after the fear.

Even just looking at that figure, you will feel an unprecedented sense of security.

Very good.

It turns out that I wasn't the only one to realize there was a problem here.

It turns out that I am not facing all this alone.

No, he must have come here because of this... to save innocent people like himself.

There is hope for everything!

Just like that, I followed Huai Shi all the way forward, opened the door, walked through the corridor, and walked into the basement with a familiar way. I passed by the puppet, watched him wave and say hello to his familiar companions, and then opened the office door...

Wait, say hi?

Her steps stopped in place.

stiff.

"Huh? Why don't you leave?"

The smiling man turned back and asked doubtfully: "Are you okay?"

The lights swayed as the waves washed over him, lengthening the ever-changing shadows on his face.

The smile is so weird.

When footsteps sounded all around, and ferocious and gloomy puppets appeared at both ends of the corridor...

Lina's heart was completely frozen.

They are in the same group!
