Chapter 680 Starving cockroaches

Latest website: After searching the entire captain's room carefully, Ji Han and others still could not find any cargo information or related records of this ship.

Ji Han suggested:

"It seems that there is no information here. Let's take the important information first and go directly to the crew room and cargo warehouse to take a look."

Everyone didn't want to stay here for too long, so they selected some important information and walked out of the captain's room.

There was still thick white fog outside, and the surroundings were so quiet, as if the entire ship was floating on the quiet lake.

Field wondered:

"I didn't expect that there is such a waveless sea covered with white mist in the Bermuda Sea Area."

Chen Ke corrected:

"At first I thought it was a problem in this sea area, but combined with the legend of the ghost ship and the fact that I had been chasing the ship on a yacht for so long, I found that it was more likely to be a problem with the ship.

Maybe it's not that there is thick fog around this sea area and there are no waves, but that the ship is always surrounded by thick fog and calms down the waves.

In all the legends about this ship, the discovery of this ship coincided with heavy fog on the sea. I think this is not a coincidence. "

Chen Ke's words reminded Ji Han:

"Hiss, it stands to reason that this ghost ship has been discovered several times, and crew members have come aboard. We don't care whether those crew members really disappeared mysteriously.

So far, we don’t seem to have found any traces of anyone else coming up, right? "

Everyone looked at each other and recalled the bridge and captain's cabin they had just visited.

Indeed, as Ji Han said, there was no trace of the second or third batch of people coming up.

Walter agreed:

"That's right. If there are subsequent crew members who come up, they will definitely investigate the situation on the ship.

But when we arrived at the captain's cabin and the bridge just now, we found no signs of being searched. Even the logbook was still in the drawer of the captain's cabin. "

Field asked:

"You mean that the incident where a crew member discovered this ghost ship was also fabricated?"

Ji Han shook his head and said:

"It is not yet confirmed whether anyone has discovered this ghost ship, but judging from the current signs on the ship, it still looks like it was when the situation was first encountered. There must be something wrong here, so everyone should be careful."

When Ji Han and the other six came out of the captain's room, they all re-checked the yacht tied to the side and confirmed that there was nothing wrong with the yacht and the rope.

Although the Marys Lester they were on could also sail, Ji Han and the other six did not want to take risks with this strange ship.

The entrance to the crew room and cargo hold is on the aft side of the center.

Pushing open the old-fashioned wooden door revealed a three-meter-wide corridor.

The corridor turned a corner diagonally downwards, and through the stairs in the corridor it could be seen that there were at least two floors below.

According to Eggplant and Walter's judgment just now, the upper floor should be the crew room, and the lower floor should be the cargo hold.

The six of them still stood in twos and twos to explore downwards. Walter at the front carefully opened the hatch of the crew room, and was immediately greeted by a sour body odor.

Eggplant complained:

"Oh, it feels like my rhinitis is gone."

Ji Hanxin said that this smell was much stronger than the smell in his dormitory, and nodded:

"At least it proves that there is nothing wrong with what is written in the logbook. This ship must have been sailing at sea for a long time. Let's go in and take a look."

There was only white light coming from the windows, so the light in the crew room was slightly insufficient, and everyone turned on the prepared flashlights.

As soon as they entered, everyone saw a large wooden table with uneaten bread and jam on the table. It could be seen that everyone was enjoying breakfast when something happened on the ship.

The bread and jam were the same as those seen in the cab, without any signs of corruption, as if someone had just eaten them.

Some people's coats were still thrown on the chairs, and it was obvious that they were really in a hurry when they left.

Further inside is a simple wooden bed, the original color of the fabric covered on it can no longer be seen.

Stacked inside are the daily necessities of the crew. Although it looks a bit messy, it does have a sense of life.

Although he was not very hopeful about this place, Ji Han still suggested:

"Everyone will simply check to see if there are any relevant clues."

After searching for about ten minutes, everyone retreated. Eggplant rubbed his hands on his clothes and complained:

"There was nothing but hand oil. At that time, these crew members were considered to be at the bottom of society. It is estimated that few of them were literate, and the living quarters were really dirty."

Chen Ke continued:

"That's right. It was so dirty that I didn't find a single living cockroach. I just found some dead cockroaches under the plates on the dining table."

Song Qian was also a little confused when she heard this:

"It stands to reason that the cabin of their crew is so dirty, and it is normal for there to be some cockroaches and flying insects. But there is so much food on the table, and the ship has been deserted for so long, shouldn't the plates be crawling with cockroaches?

Is there something wrong with this breakfast? Is it poisonous? Those crew members had hallucinations after eating them, so they jumped into the sea and died? "

Ji Han shook his head and said:

"It's better not to make wild guesses yet. Although this crew room is a bit dirty, these things are placed very neatly. If someone is hallucinating, this is definitely not the state here."

While talking to himself, Ji Han also lowered his head to examine the cockroach corpse under the plate.

I didn't even notice it because of the poor lighting, but now I saw that the corpses of these cockroaches were still fresh, as if they had just died, and their bodies had not dried out.

However, Ji Han noticed something strange:

"Huh? Come and take a look. Why are the corpses of these cockroaches so shriveled?"

No one understood what Ji Han meant for a while, wondering why he suddenly became interested in this disgusting insect?

If they saw that he didn't mean to joke, they all came forward to take a look.

It turned out that all the cockroaches on the table were dead. Although the bodies were very fresh, their bodies were shriveled.

Field paid no attention to these dead cockroaches:

"These cockroaches must have been crushed to death by the crew with plates, right?"

"No, you see these cockroaches are all lying around the plates on the table. Besides, if the crew really beat them to death, they would definitely not leave them on the table, so they must have crawled after the crew left the cabin. Come to the table."

Walter pinched the shriveled cockroach, seemed to remember something, frowned and said:

"It shouldn't be wrong. These cockroaches on the table seem to be... starved to death."
