1272 Make A Magic For You (2/4)

1272. Chapter 1272 Make a Magic for You (24)

Chaos continues on board the Northern Lights cruise ship.

People shuttled in the cabin, packing their luggage almost frantically, for fear that they would be evacuated soon, and they would be the one left behind.

I don't know who leaked the news, or maybe someone got the news through other channels. They were targeted by pirates and spread wildly in the cabin.

Someone ran to the captain's room and knocked on the door, demanding that the escape boat be lowered, so that they could escape a little bit. Some people even asked for life jackets to be issued, and once pirates boarded the ship, they would jump into the sea and escape.

It has to be said that when people's lives are in danger, they will always say something that doesn't use their brains.

Except for a limited number of diesel engine speedboats, the rest of the rubber boats are not sinkable enough, and they are floating in the sea waiting for rescue. Not to mention that you can't run far on the open sea, you can't run at all, and there is a risk of being overturned by the waves.

As for life jackets...

Let's just say it's a very creative idea.

More and more people gathered in the captain's room, and the bodyguards of the royal guard had to join the security team and began to maintain order outside the captain's room. The ship's first officer also joined the ranks, trying to appease everyone's uneasy emotions.

Although it is safe here for the time being, it is obviously not suitable to stay any longer.

After watching Wang Peng report the situation using the satellite phone, Lu Zhou asked Wang Peng to take him out of the captain's room, and was going to return to his room to rest for a while.

However, just as they passed the stairs and were about to go down, they suddenly ran into two acquaintances.

These two acquaintances are none other than Prince Felipe and his beautiful wife Princess Sophia. I saw Mrs. Sophia crying like pear blossoms and rain, lying on Prince Felipe's shoulders, the whole person seemed to have lost her soul.

Although it had nothing to do with me, no one would turn a blind eye to such a thing, especially Lu Zhou, who had vaguely guessed something when he saw that the little princess was not by their side, asked kindly.

"What happened here?"

Looking up and seeing Lu Zhou and Wang Peng, Mrs. Sophia grabbed Lu Zhou's arm and said in a pleading voice.

"My Lillian! She's gone! I beg you, help me."

Lu Zhou glanced at her, and saw that her eyes had already turned red from crying, and she was like a drowning person who fell into the lake, desperately grabbing every straw around her.

He has no doubt that even if it is not himself and Wang Peng who pass by here, but a waiter who cannot protect himself, she will definitely catch him and ask him to help find his daughter.

Prince Felip's mood was quite calm, at least there was still a sliver of reason, and he gently pulled Mrs. Ra's arm.

"People from the Royal Guard are already looking for her, they just need a little time."

"That group of trash doesn't care about us!" She threw off her husband's arm, covered her face, and whimpered, "Don't look at them staring at the royal name, they don't care about us at all, look at their You can tell with your eyes!"

"I think you're just being too sensitive..."

Looking at the weeping Madam Sophia, Wang Peng took a step forward.

There was only basic politeness on that expressionless face, and he didn't care about these things at all during the mission, he just said in an unkind voice.

"Sorry, Lady Sophia, we have more important—"

"It's okay, please don't panic, Mrs. Sophia, your daughter will come back to you."

Wang Peng looked at Lu Zhou who interrupted his voice in astonishment, and suspected that there was something wrong with his ears.

At this time, Madam Sophia who was crying also raised her head and looked at him in disbelief.

"Would you...will you help me?"

Lu Zhou nodded and said in a gentle voice.

"Of course, I am also very worried about the safety of the little princess, and hope she can return to your side as soon as possible."

Prince Felip took his wife's hand again, squeezed it gently, and looked at Lu Zhou with some hesitation.

"Is this... really good?"

Although the relationship between the two countries is temporarily in the honeymoon period, neither Sweden, Hua Guo nor he himself knows that his daughter is not worth any risk for Academician Lu.

What went wrong with the former is only Sweden's own business.

And if something goes wrong with the latter, it may not be as simple as a diplomatic dispute.

Looking at Prince Felipe, Lu Zhou smiled and said.

"There's nothing wrong with it, and it's not a difficult thing."

After asking Prince Felipe's room number, Lu Zhou led Wang Peng to the other end of the cabin. Looking at Lu Zhou's back, Wang Peng hesitated and said.

"We shouldn't be overwhelmed, and I'm concerned there may be other dangers on board."

Regardless of whether the diplomatic issue is Lu Zhou's job...

Even if something happened to the little princess, no one would blame the inaction of a scholar, let alone Hua Guo. Apart from mourning, people hated the pirates at best.

"People all over the world know that the Swedish royal family is the poorest royal family in the world. Even though there are some well-known entrepreneurs and rich people on board, they are far from being as rich as a country, not to mention that even if the ransom is about to be paid In fact, after causing such a big trouble, most of them cannot be spent. Obviously, those pirates are not looking for money, and most of them are here for me."

"So, it's not something out of the ordinary."

"but--"

Wang Peng wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Lu Zhou.

He just smiled and continued talking.

"And as I said, it's not difficult."

In fact, the main reason is that Chen Yushan likes that little girl. If she encounters any danger, falls into the water in chaos or other bad things happen, Lu Zhou thinks she will feel sad.

Of course, no matter how much these things are said, it may be an excuse.

The real reason, I'm afraid, is that he himself is a nosy person.

Sighing as if giving up, Wang Peng was not persuading, but talked about practical problems.

"How are you going to find her? There may not be enough people on my side."

"That's a good question, give me a minute."

As he said that, Lu Zhou stretched out his index finger and tapped lightly on the Beyond AR glasses.

"Xiao Ai, help me find a little girl on the boat. Her name is Lilian, the little princess of the royal family. Although I don't have her photo, you should be able to find it online."

【Okay, master! ()】

For Xiao Ai who controls the quantum computer, it is almost omnipotent in the Internet world. While surveillance on cruise ships is not connected to the Internet, there are always connected things on board that can be used as a springboard.

Almost as soon as the message was replied, Xiao Ai had already obtained control of the monitoring system.

Through retrieving cached data, comparing portraits, heights, and gait characteristics, and analyzing the action route, an intermittent green line extends out of the 3D cabin thumbnail, and quickly runs through the entire The interior space of the Arctic Light cargo ship pointed straight to the stern.

Taking a full view of this route, Lu Zhou reached out and gently adjusted his glasses, with a smile on his lips.

"...we've found her."

Wang Peng glanced at Lu Zhou in disbelief.

I just wanted to ask "Are you sure?", but thought that Lu Zhou would never joke about this kind of thing, so he changed his words when it came to his lips.

"How much are your glasses...?"

"Did you think it was the glasses that did this? Don't think about it, it's mine," Lu Zhou smiled lightly, and continued, "The target is in the utility room at the back of the second floor, and the room number should be B2771. Let's go."

Wang Peng nodded.

"OK."

Against the crowd, Lu Zhou followed Wang Peng's footsteps and came to the utility room at the stern.

The piles here are mainly some cleaning supplies that are temporarily unused, which is a place where people usually don't come.

Looking at the locked door, although curious about how that naughty little guy slipped in, Lu Zhou didn't waste too much curiosity on such trivial matters. He tapped his index finger on the frame of his glasses, The electronic lock was unlocked.

When the bell to open the door rang, Wang Peng held the doorknob first, put the other hand in his arms, and pushed the door cautiously.

Seeing his cautious movements, Lu Zhou shook his head with a smile, and followed him into the relatively spacious storage room.

Naturally, there can be no ambush here, there is only a little girl wearing a foreign skirt, squatting in a corner, tightly holding a doll she picked up from nowhere.

Blinking a pair of big emerald eyes, Princess Lilian opened her mouth in surprise as she watched the two people appearing at the door.

"...Why don't you hide?"

Thinking this question was a bit funny, Lu Zhou walked to her side and squatted down, asking with a smile.

"Why are you hiding? It's just a small situation outside, good kids don't run around."

"Lilian is not running around, Lilian is just fleeing."

After hearing this sentence, Lu Zhou couldn't hold back, smiled and shook his head.

escape?

This is on the high seas, where can he escape?

Seeing that Lu Zhou obviously didn't believe what he said, the little princess sitting on the ground complained dissatisfiedly.

"You can't believe me, I'm telling the truth. Some people say that there are pirates outside, and then Mom and Dad can't find them. If Lilian doesn't hide, is she waiting to die on the deck?"

"At this time, the good boy's approach is to go back to his room instead of making his parents anxious... Wait, you said someone knew that the pirates were coming?"

"Yes," Lilian nodded, looking at Lu Zhou curiously, "Don't you know? Everyone is saying that."

Lu Zhou and Wang Peng met each other, and saw the look in each other's eyes.

Sure enough, most of the ship has internal support.

If no one spread the news, even if similar rumors would spread, they would not be so consistent.

What's more, it was before he called satellite aerial photography.

Even if the news came from the captain's room, the time was not right at all. In this way, someone should be deliberately creating chaos, and then planning to take advantage of the chaos to do something...

Probably overheard their conversation, the search icon flashed on the upper right corner of the glasses.

After about 30 seconds, a line of text appeared in Lu Zhou's field of vision.

Xiao Ai: [Master, Xiao Ai found a few suspicious people at the bottom floor. φ(≧ω≦*)]

Lu Zhou: "Mark it for me."

Xiao Ai: 【Received! ()】

Soon, a surveillance screen was displayed, when everyone was going to the restaurant and preparing to obey the command to evacuate. A few suspicious-looking people went against the crowd and came to the bottom of the cruise ship.

Judging from the clothes on their bodies, they were wearing the uniforms of the hotel staff. Until they disappeared from the surveillance screen, Xiao Ai marked their current locations on the map.

"Wang Peng, look at your phone."

Hearing Lu Zhou's order, Wang Peng turned on his phone without any hesitation, and played the surveillance video that Lu Zhou had just sent.

When he saw those abnormal figures, he frowned unconsciously.

"Before boarding the ship, there will be two security checks. No one should be able to bring weapons on board except us."

"Do we include the Royal Guard?"

Wang Peng froze for a moment, then nodded in understanding.

"I see."

They did not bring weapons on board, but directly used the equipment on board that belonged to the Royal Guard.

Although these equipment are some light weapons, it is definitely not possible to blow up the ship, but it is not a problem to do other bad things while taking advantage of the chaos.

Not surprisingly, if the pirates' attack is unsuccessful, they should start to do it while the pirates are fighting with the guards on the ship.

The expression on his face sank slightly, Wang Peng put away his phone and said softly.

"I'll be back after a visit, you stay here and don't move around."

Lu Zhou smiled and said, "I don't plan to wander around, but you should be more careful, there are six of them."

Hearing these words, Wang Peng suddenly smiled. There was a trace of murderous intent in that smile, and even the nervous Princess Lilian couldn't help shivering.

"Only six?"

"It's more appropriate to worry about me after changing to sixty."

After that, he walked towards the door.

The door of B2771 was closed, and before leaving, Wang Peng also turned on the lights in the cabin for Lu Zhou.

It's safe here.

With the monitoring system already controlled by Xiao Ai, no one would have thought that he would be here even after searching the entire cruise ship. He just needs to wait here quietly for the riot to end, and then hand this little princess running around into the hands of her parents, and everything will be over.

Just when Lu Zhou was thinking about whether to use AR glasses to watch a movie to pass the time, a timid voice suddenly came from beside him.

"I heard."

"What did you hear?"

"The pirates will take us."

"..."

Lu Zhou thought this was nonsense, if the pirates didn't take the hostages and asked for a ransom, what else could they do? But thinking that this is just a six-year-old girl, and she can't say anything philosophical, so he didn't bother to pick this word.

"……Then what?"

"Then kill all the men, and then all the women—"

Hearing that something was wrong, Lu Zhou immediately covered her mouth with sweat profusely.

If she was allowed to continue talking about this, I'm afraid they would both be gone.

"Who taught you these things?"

Princess Lilian blinked her eyes and said innocently.

"I read it online."

"I think whoever showed you that stuff should be sentenced."

Lilian asked curiously: "Then... Should Mr. Andersen be sentenced? I love his stories the most."

Lu Zhou: "...I guess you must not be watching the normal version."

"But what should I do, Lilian is really scared." Lilian suddenly hugged her head, and shrank her body leaning against the corner, as if suddenly thinking of something terrible, her shoulders trembled, "Like me This kind of little girl with no meat will definitely be thrown into the sea to feed the fish because she can eat too much."

What the hell is throwing it into the sea to feed the fish?

Looking at this pitiful little guy who couldn't help laughing, Lu Zhou couldn't help but shook his head.

Just when he was thinking about how to comfort her, he suddenly thought of a good idea, so he snapped his fingers and said.

"Don't be afraid, I can do a magic trick for you."

Lilian, who was trembling, raised her head and looked at Lu Zhou curiously.

"magic?"

"Yes, magic."

Putting his hands on his knees, Lu Zhou stood up from the floor and extended his right hand to the little girl sitting on the ground, "Get up, let's go to the porthole."

Only then does it act barely like a princess.

Elegantly putting her hand on Lu Zhou's palm, Lilian complained, "Can't we just change here? The deck is dangling, and I'm so tired standing there."

"I'll give you a hand before you fall, and hold on for a while. This magic is inconvenient to cast on other things, it's only effective on bad guys..."

Squinting his eyes and looking out of the porthole, the shadow of the cargo ship was getting closer.

At the same time, a marked green light spot was getting closer and closer on his AR glasses.

"Where is the magic?" Unhappily tilting her head, Lilian looked at Lu Zhou with her baby's fat chin raised, and complained childishly, "Are you really a liar too? Mr. Scholar."

"Anyone who knows me knows that I never lie. Look out the window," Lu Zhou stretched out his index finger and pointed at the cargo ship that was getting closer, and said softly, "The spell has been completed."
