Chapter 365 Mermaid
"Iris Orchid?"
"That is a huge luxury cruise ship, which has always been known for its stability and safety. In its history, there has never been any shipwreck..."
Peter paused for a moment, and then continued: "After I finished my studies for that school year, I bought a ticket to go to the first-class cabin of the Iris Orchid."
"Just you alone? Didn't you bring a servant?"
Peter nodded, "As far as I am, I like to be disturbed when I travel."
"Then you were on the boat, did you have any conflicts with others? Or, did you have long-term contact with others?"
"As far as I know, no."
Peter hesitated for a moment, then shook his head slowly, "The places I go in and out are all in the reading room, first-class smoking room, restaurant, dance floor, and deck swimming pool, basically I go alone.
One or two women tried to strike up a conversation with me, but I turned them down. "
The Consul's wife interjected: "Your Excellency, Peter is a very obedient child. And he is about to reach adulthood, then we will arrange a suitable marriage for him."
Li Ang glanced at the Consul's wife and said nothing, but the latter immediately understood the meaning, shut her mouth, and stopped speaking.
"You mentioned in your medical records that you suspected that someone was following you in the days after boarding the ship."
"It's not doubt, it's affirmation. And it's not a person, it's a 'thing'."
Peter seemed to have thought of something, trembling all over, and said in a panic: "In the first few days when I boarded the ship, I liked to lean on the railing on the deck and watch the scenery of the sea, but soon I felt that someone was watching from the dark. with me.
Can you understand that feeling? I don't know where the cold and greedy eyes are staring at your back all the time..."
"And then you reported that to the worker security staff on board."
"Yes, I explained the situation to them and even showed my identity. They also attached great importance to it and arranged two bodyguards for me."
"Has the situation improved?"
"Absolutely not."
Peter smiled helplessly and said, "It's even worse. Those two bodyguards couldn't find the source of their line of sight at all, and they caused a lot of trouble during this period.
Then I found that as long as I stayed indoors and didn't go out on deck, the annoying sight disappeared for a while. But soon, this method has no effect.
Even if I stayed in the reading room or the restaurant, I couldn't escape the feeling of being watched.
I ended up having to stay in the bedroom all day and have the two bodyguards sleep in a separate room from the bedroom.
It’s fine during the day, but at night…”
Li Ang asked, "What happened at night?"
Peter shivered, "At night, the feeling of being peeped on is even stronger, and I'm going to be driven crazy. When I sleep at night, I have to put two daggers under the pillow and quilt.
In the end, I sealed all the cracks in the door and the windows with black tape, and it finally got better. "
Li Ang nodded, "Do you think this kind of weird thing has something to do with the caster?"
"Not a spellcaster."
Peter said affirmatively: "When I was away from home, I brought some detection and defense props for spellcasters with me. These props only found the spellcasters in charge of security work on the ship, and did not find out the source of prying eyes."
Li Ang nodded, "Understood, you continue."
"After the windows were sealed, I felt better until the day of the shipwreck."
Speaking of this, Peter seemed a little hesitant, "Actually, it is not very appropriate to say that the shipwreck is not very appropriate. That afternoon, because I felt that I was finally free from prying eyes, I wanted to go to the deck to rest and relax.
As a result, the originally cloudless and calm sea was suddenly covered with dark clouds and heavy rain.
Waves as high as a six or seven-story building hit from the other side of the sea level, and the ship was full of screams from sailors and passengers..."
Peter said softly, "I wanted to run back to my cabin as soon as possible, but the deck and even the whole ship began to shake, I could only hold on to the railing and couldn't stand up, let alone go below the deck.
Later, I saw waves as high as mountains hitting my side..."
Having said that, Peter fell silent, his eyes were cloudy and lifeless.
Li Ang asked, "Then what happened?"
Peter took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "You must believe me in what I'm going to say next."
Li Ang corrected his sitting posture and said seriously, "I am an exorcism expert. I will seriously consider what you say, please tell me."
Peter gritted his teeth, "I was kidnapped by a mermaid in the water."
Li Ang narrowed his eyes and leaned back slightly, "Who is the mermaid?"
"It's not who, it's a mermaid that's half human and half fish!"
Li Ang nodded, took out a notepad and a pen from nowhere, quickly drew something on the paper, then tore off the paper, and showed Peter a look.
On the paper, a monster with a human on the left and a fish on the right is drawn, and the style of the painting is somewhat cute.
Peter stretched his neck in a daze for a second or two, then corrected, "It's not left and right, it's up and down."
Li Ang nodded, started drawing again, then tore off the paper, and raised it up with a serious face.
On the paper, a monster with a man's lower body and a fishtail head was drawn.
Peter was stunned again, "Where's the head?! There is no bird, she is a woman!"
Li Ang drew a new one,
On the screen, it was a monster with a human head and the lower body of a fish head.
"this?!"
Li Ang saw Peter's painful and tight expression on his face, and instantly understood, added a few long hairs to the woman's head, and put on lipstick.
Peter knocked off the paper in Li Ang's hand with a "snap", and excitedly stretched out his hand to draw: "A mermaid! It's the kind with a human upper body and a fish tail!"
"Understood."
Li Ang put down the pen and paper, and asked seriously: "Then the mermaid you mentioned, is she pretty?"
"It's not a question of whether she's pretty or not, she's... that kind of rare monster that's so ugly that people can't judge it."
Peter calmed down a little, and said slowly: "Her complexion is dark, her hair is knotted into small whips, her forehead is wide open, and her eyes are very far apart, just like an anglerfish or a flounder."
Li Ang's expression became more serious, "This mermaid, did she kidnap you?"
"yes."
Peter's voice was a little hoarse, "She swam towards me in the water, even in the water I could smell a strong, perfume-like smell.
Terrified, I took out my dagger and tried to resist, but she took the weapon away and threw it into the water.
She then hugged me from behind and strangled me, knocking me out.
The last thing I felt before I passed out was her kissing me mouth to mouth. "
