Chapter 194 Departed Route
Like yesterday, after taking a sack of food from the kitchen, Pei Yan and Gu Chaoxi walked towards the warehouse.
They did meet a few people along the way, but they didn't care about what they were doing.
Fortunately, I managed to get through it safely.
Just as he turned the corner, a fishbone knife was placed across his neck.
This fish bone looks like it was polished by himself, and its lethality is not very strong.
However, having this kind of mentality to defend is considered good.
Raising his hand to push away the fishbone knife in front of his neck, Gu Chaoxi's eyebrows curved.
"I'm Ashley, I'm here to bring you some food."
"It's Ashley, sister, put the knife down."
Campbell's voice rang out from the darkness. Gu Chaoxi glanced to the side and realized that the person pointing the knife at him was a little girl.
She looks young and her face is a bit gray, but that doesn't stop her from being pretty.
Campbell came over and took the sack that she and Pei Yan were carrying, then smiled.
"I'm sorry, my sister didn't see you yesterday."
"It's ok."
She shook her head. The fishbone knife couldn't hurt her.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have no reaction.
Besides, Aesop would not allow anyone to hurt them.
"Please come with me."
Perhaps Campbell noticed that Gu Chaoxi's eyes were exploring something, so he chuckled and motioned for the two of them to follow.
Pei Yan glanced down, responded softly, and followed.
The two of them walked all the way inside, passing some people collapsed on the ground, and then they reached the deeper part.
It was not until this time that I could see a little more clearly with the help of the light in front.
This is not just a large open warehouse, there are other rooms.
It is not accurate to call it a room.
It's more like dividing the warehouse into two, but the design here makes it difficult for people standing outside to see what's inside.
The door in front of you blends in very naturally with the wall and is completely invisible.
Until Campbell put his hand on it, the door opened inward.
The light inside the door was quite bright, and Aesop was sitting at a table inside.
On the other side of the room, there were boxes of various sizes filled with something and sealed on the outside.
When Gu Chaoxi and Pei Yan walked in, Aesop raised his head.
"Thank you very much, Miss Aisley and Mr. Ailor, for remembering people like us."
His arms hung down and his eyes shifted from the table to the faces of Pei Yan and Gu Chaoxi.
"It's a bit simple here, please take a seat."
The chairs here are all made of wood and look a bit inferior.
But it’s better to have someone to sit than to stand, so Gu Chaoxi didn’t mind.
She sat down and looked across the table. It looked like a nautical chart, but she couldn't quite understand the lines.
Aesop stood up and walked to the door, then saw Campbell distributing the food that Gu Chaoxi had brought down.
Those who received the food had smiles on their faces and expressed sincere gratitude.
He smiled back, then closed the door and sat back down at the table.
“Is this the navigation line?”
Pei Yan took a look and saw the cross on it.
Aesop raised his hand and pressed it, without denying: "It is indeed the navigation line, but not the current one."
Gu Chaoxi raised his eyes. Aesop had been in the warehouse at the bottom of the ship. How could he know which direction the ship was heading?
Even if it is someone in the cockpit, there is no way to tell the difference without the help of the equipment on the ship.
This is the middle of the endless sea, not a lake.
"Mr. Aesop, how did you know that?"
When she thought of this, she just asked.
Aesop took a look and took out a compass.
"In fact, I have always been relatively experienced in sailing before this."
With just a map and a compass, he could roughly determine the deviation of the ship's course.
It is not an exaggeration to call this kind of person a genius.
Gu Chaoxi frowned. If Aesop had always known that there was something wrong with the direction the ship was heading, why didn't he remind the nobles?
Or maybe he didn't care whether the ship was on the right course.
Another possibility...
But is this a possibility?
Pei Yan's voice interrupted Gu Zhaoxi's thoughts, and he asked, "Mr. Aesop, does the deviation of the route have anything to do with you?"
Gu Chaoxi did not expect to be asked so directly.
But Aesop didn't seem angry. He smiled calmly, and when he tilted his head, the white bones in his neck crackled.
"I didn't know about it. When I found out, the ship had already deviated."
"I don't know who they are or what they want to do, but I want to ask you to help me look after Isa if anything happens."
He bowed his head so devoutly that it was impossible to refuse.
Gu Zhaoxi turned his head and looked at the boxes in the other half of the room: "What are those?"
"gunpowder."
Aesop replied.
Then he seemed to fall into silence.
"Actually, I just discovered this not long ago. At first, I didn't know there was another part of the warehouse here."
"It was because Campbell's sister was sick, and when she fell, she accidentally pushed open the door here."
That's why Aesop entered the room to check.
Here he found the gunpowder, though it was not clear what it was for.
But the amount of gunpowder used was enough to sink the cruise ship.
Therefore, he also wanted to know who hid the gunpowder on the ship.
The three of them fell into silence.
After a while, someone knocked on the door.
"Aisley, someone is here to see you."
"Find me?"
Gu Chaoxi was stunned and looked at Pei Yan.
Apart from her own people in this dimension, who else would come to see her?
After saying goodbye to Aesop and promising him that they would bring food tonight, the two of them got up and left the room.
When we reached the stairs, Campbell's sister was leaning against the wall playing with a fishbone knife.
Her eyes were drooping and her exposed calves were covered with rotting flesh.
But it is obvious that these people in this plane have no idea of their own changes, so it seems a bit weird.
When she looked at Gu Chaoxi, she pursed her lips and smiled gently. She flipped the fishbone knife in her hand twice and put it back at her waist.
Before Gu Chaoxi walked out of the warehouse, the little girl jumped over and blocked her way.
"Ms. Aisley, if you meet Sister Isa, please ask her for me."
"Ok."
This girl is obviously Campbell's sister, why does she know Isa?
She didn't ask, and walked up the stairs with Pei Yan, and saw Chen Chen standing at the corner.
He huddled in the corner with his arms folded, and when he heard the footsteps, his eyes widened as if he was frightened.
"You are the one who found this?"
Just now I thought that some character from some dimension was looking for me, and I almost started brainstorming.
Chen Chen didn't understand what she meant for a moment, and thought she was a little disappointed, so he spoke quickly.
"Shen Yao and the others followed that man to the room. Let me tell you something."
