Under the Yuhai King Ship are the Yuhai Four Divisions.
Hucang Flag receives secret orders to search for the "Big Ship".
And indeed found it.
The diary records what a pirate witnessed firsthand on a pirate ship under the Hucang Flag.
When seeing [Flag Master issued the order, everyone attacked the ship!], Su Mo couldn't wait to turn to the next page.
However... the next page was empty.
"Huh? Is it discontinued?"
Su Mo was surprised, then furious: "What's going on? Writing a diary and you discontinue?"
Yang Xiaoyun, Wei Ziyi, and Fu Han Yuan looked at Su Mo, full of confusion.
Su Mo flipped further back, only to find some chaotic notes, which did not connect to the previous text.
[A person is lying on the sea, seeming like a corpse.]
[The brothers reported to the ship head, who said 'Seen it often, unusual things defeat themselves,' and ignored it.]
After these two lines, the next page had this written.
[At night, cries of alarm erupted, with some brothers shouting 'water ghost' boarding the ship.]
[Screams came from outside, I dared not look out, only feeling the ship tonight becoming increasingly cold and sinister.]
[I saw him after all, water stains flowing on his clothes, it was indeed the floating corpse seen at sea during the day.]
[He's here...]
At the end, you could see his handwriting had become extremely scrambled, clearly written in a state of extreme panic.
It's just that, at this life-and-death moment, he was still writing in his diary...
Is this thing addictive?
Su Mo held the diary roll, brows tightly furrowed.
Then handed it over to Yang Xiaoyun and them to read.
After everyone finished passing it around, Yang Xiaoyun spoke first:
"From the later records, it seems that the murderer is the man they saw that day in the sea.
"He clearly wasn't a corpse.
"The reason he was called 'water ghost' might be because the person lying on the sea during the day suddenly came aboard at night to kill, naturally causing panic in people's hearts.
"Then guessing towards Chaotic Power and Gods."
"Sister Xiao Yun is right."
Wei Ziyi nodded: "The floating corpse in the sea during the day suddenly comes aboard at night to kill, anyone would speculate wildly in that direction. But... why?"
Why, only three words, but many doubts emerge.
First, why was this person lying in the sea?
As if a corpse?
Secondly, the ship head clearly didn't want to deal with this person, and they missed him.
Yet this person suddenly boarded at night to kill.
What was the reason?
If it's said that they hated being let die...
But, this person had the ability to float in the sea and remain immortal.
And capable of sneaking aboard, killing everyone.
Clearly, they did not encounter any danger.
Letting them die thus becomes nonsense.
And from the situation on the ship, it can be seen.
This person wasn't motivated by money or chivalry, or for revenge.
Su Mo's expression was strange:
"Could it be, this person simply goes to kill everyone he meets?"
This guess is somewhat terrifying.
Yang Xiaoyun and the others were startled, frowning at once.
If truly so, what kind of person would this be?
Su Mo waved his hand:
"The clues are too few now, thinking more is pointless.
"Old Fu, have people aboard sorted the bodies, and check this ship meticulously."
"Yes."
Fu Han Yuan replied and turned to leave.
Su Mo turned that journal back and forth again, wishing to read between the lines for some clue.
Lastly, to no avail.
Yang Xiaoyun seeing Su Mo doing so, understood what he was thinking:
"You're thinking about what happened after Hucang Flag attacked the big ship?"
Su Mo nodded:
"The diary doesn't record the outcome of the big ship, nor Hucang Flag's fate.
"The diary calls this ship's Master 'ship head', not Flag Master.
"This shows this ship is merely one among a fleet.
"Hucang Flag having dozens up to a hundred pirate ships, able to form a ship array in the ocean.
"Why are all other ships absent now, only finding this one?
"What happened on the sea that day?
"Why did this person record so many things, yet stayed silent about that day's events?"
Su Mo's words put everyone present back into silence.
Finally, shaking heads, these questions weren't immediately answerable; best to store them in the heart.
The group started searching the room.
Since it was the ship's study, it naturally held considerable value for exploration.
Unfortunately, apart from finding a 'ship head' small treasury and some account books in a secret box, nothing else was found.
Afterward, Fu Han Yuan led people on board, laying all bodies on deck.
Not only the Hucang Flag pirates, but also the women's bodies at the very bottom of the cabin were all arranged over.
Counting, there were a total of one hundred and seventy-two bodies.
Also found in the warehouse were silver totaling one thousand three hundred taels, various weapons.
After moving all these back to their own ship, he ordered another thorough check, finally confirming nothing was missed, then set fire to this ship.
Thick smoke billowed across the sea, Su Mo holding that diary, lightly furrowing his brows.
