Chapter 1948: Chapter 1056: Dogged by Misfortune (Part 2)
Huang Shihu also had a serious tone and clasped his hands, but the two adjectives he used to evaluate made the corners of the two crew members’ mouths twitch involuntarily.
Yet Ferrari didn’t mind in the slightest, repeatedly saying ’too kind, too kind’.
"Wow."
Huang Shihu even took a special glance at the chasm of First Love’s black bikini, expressing a ’wow’, earning another label of ’dirty old man’.
"Haha, if Mr. Huang is interested in First Love, why don’t we let her keep you company for a while?"
Ferrari laughed heartily, seemingly suggesting First Love to go over.
However, Huang Shihu quickly waved his hand and said,
"No, no, thank you."
"I heard your wife is also on board. You’re afraid of being managed, right, Mr. Huang?"
Ferrari gave a slight goading.
"Yes and no, actually I’m mostly afraid someone will keep following me, then cheat for me using Gambling Techniques, letting me win against the Gambling God and then expose me. It’d be troublesome then, after all, the Gambling God has too many enemies."
Huang Shihu said rather nonsensically, but Ferrari felt a chill in his heart; this guy is really Keen!
However, thinking that his means of utilization were of the occult, he relaxed, and instead laughed heartily,
"Mr. Huang is really overly cautious. There’s no such coincidence in the world, but we’re about to reach international waters. Before your gambling match, there’s an auction where you might find some treasures. There’re quite a few good things there."
"Yes, there’re quite a few rare gems worth a fortune, but you’ve heard about the jewelry heist from Xiangjiang, right? The exhibits here are far more valuable than those jewels, plus the cash we’ll be bringing and the wealthy people onboard might attract some unwanted elements, and rescue on international seas is not swift..."
He said as he was wiping his face with a handkerchief, and spoke to the two crew members whose expressions changed slightly,
"Don’t you think? It puts a lot of pressure on you too, right?"
Ferrari initially smiled intending to brush it off, but as a top expert in Gambling Techniques, he also noticed the unnatural behavior of the two crew members, the spot they were in...
Monitoring him?
This realization made Ferrari ponder...
...
Inside a room on the ship, Ah Jiu, looking sick, was sitting cross-legged on the ship.
The room’s temperature was much lower than outside.
Soon, a Spiritual Body passed through the wall, but it wasn’t Little Ghost; it was a middle-aged man with a gloomy face.
After seeing Ah Jiu, the man gave a cold, sinister smile,
"Those crew members outside may indeed have something wrong; I detected many weapons onboard, far exceeding the scope of security. So how about dealing with a few of them?"
"Aren’t you afraid of being hunted down?"
Ah Jiu opened his eyes and said calmly.
"Afraid, but don’t I have you to cover me? Haha, pent up for so many days, I’m a little restless. Is that Little Duke really that strong? Even you can’t deal with him?"
The Murderer spoke with a tone of repressed resentment.
He hadn’t provoked that guy, yet he sent his ghost to hunt him down; the ghost was manageable, but he felt that something scarier lurked behind it.
Relying on this unscrupulous Ah Jiu, he barely survived.
"Judging from the video, he should be slightly stronger than me. However, once my treasure is refined, you possess it, and there won’t be any adversaries left."
Ah Jiu seemed very calm, which made the Murderer glance at the room’s toilet; for some unknown reason it was entirely covered with black cloth, not a shred of light could penetrate, yet the Murderer’s eyes held some greed.
Soon, once this thing is complete, no one will be able to stop him!
No one!
"I saw that friend you mentioned before; I spared them as you said, but whether Jade-faced Flying Dragon will is not up to me."
"That has nothing to do with me; I’ve done all I can."
Ah Jiu’s expression carried a trace of complexity but he quickly steeled himself; to survive, he’s willing to do anything!
Relying on the gang’s power and financial backer, he acquired the best materials, and all materials were top-grade; once completed, he could extend his life for another thirty years using the Life Substitution Technique!
"Hehe, you know Ferrari will surely kill them, yet you still notified them. You’re hypocritical yourself."
The Murderer laughed eerily, gradually merging into the shadows, but Ah Jiu didn’t care, merely picking up the radio to communicate with Ferrari,
"Already verified, there is indeed a problem..."
On the other side, Ferrari seemed to have been waiting for his message, responded immediately,
"Got it, thank you, Mr. Jiu, also I just got word, Little Duke has left the hotel and headed towards the dock with a group of people from Hongxing, and there’s a Huo Family ship waiting for him, I think they’re headed this way..."
Hearing this, Ah Jiu’s expression shifted slightly,
"I see, he is indeed very troublesome, quite troublesome, but give me some time, and I’ll naturally have a way to handle him. I wonder how soon he’ll arrive."
"We’ve already left helicopter range since we set sail, and with the yacht moving, if he rushes out on a speedboat it will take about three to four days."
"Three days, that’s sufficient."
There was a tone of strong confidence in Ah Jiu’s speech, and as a top-tier Gambling Techniques master, Ferrari keenly captured this detail, revealing a slight smile.
It seems, the other party truly has a trump card, with that the only variable is no longer a concern!
Everything is under control!
But the armed men on the ship must be watched. Though Ferrari brought his team, scattered as tourists, each with a handgun.
Yet according to Ah Jiu, those here seem to have heavy weaponry!
"They must be targeting those artifacts, Huang Shihu suddenly appearing and saying these things shows he’s sensed something intentional, tsk~ this complicates things..."
Thinking back to that Little Duke’s methods from the jewelry heist, with him coming over again, it might be possible to take advantage of him too.
"With two occult experts on board, even if the opposition is fully armed, they can handle it, perhaps reaping the rewards as a third party!"
...
A catamaran yacht was cutting through the waves, with Tao Yu standing at the bow, feeling the sea breeze, alongside some dolphins occasionally leaping out of the water.
Huang Yaozu and a few representatives from Hongxing were competing in sea fishing, with seagulls occasionally circling above.
But suddenly, something seemed to emerge from beneath the sea, causing the dolphins that were escorting them to quickly disperse and disappear.
The seagulls in the sky also cawed loudly, swiftly flying away from the yacht.
This caught off guard the guys from the miscellaneous department who were teasing each other.
"What’s up, why does it suddenly feel off?"
"The dolphins and seagulls left, I heard orcas eat dolphins, could a predator be here?"
"But orcas don’t eat seagulls."
Zhou Xingxing, calmly fishing as if unaffected by the outside world, appeared quite composed.
But just as he finished speaking, his fishing hook seemed to snag something, wildly spinning the reel.
Zzzzz~
The reel nearly smoked, startling Zhou Xingxing.
"Whoa, I caught a big one! Is this the thing that scared the dolphins away? What is it!"
The reel continued to spin aggressively, actually starting to emit smoke.
"You just said it, nothing in the sea eats seagulls."
Leon, who had come along, calmly retorted from the side, but everyone else bustled over, seemingly excited to witness the spectacle.
"That fast, could it be a whale?"
"You really hooked a big one."
"You won’t reel it in, better cut the line."
Tao Yu glanced sideways, indifferently saying,
"Cut it."
With Tao Yu having spoken, Zhou Xingxing had no choice but to cut the line, after which the group engaged in lively discussions about what kind of fish it was, while Tao Yu looked ahead, murmuring softly,
"Useless, only just now managed to swim over..."
Below the yacht, a large shadow twisted slightly, causing a gentle tremor on the yacht, seemingly feeling wronged.
And ahead, the outline of the cruise ship was barely visible on the horizon.
"That cruise ship is laden with bad luck, mixed with a lot of negative stuff..."
Just from a glance, Tao Yu raised an eyebrow and shook his head.
Although the cruise ship looked luxurious, the feedback suggested it was even more cursed than the Titanic, and yet, it hadn’t sunk, seemingly having reached some sort of equilibrium...
