Chapter 646 A Strange Ship
After Lin Xi, Su Hui, Gu Fan, Ouyang Jin, and the boss boarded the unfamiliar cargo ship, they were faced with a horrifying sight. Numerous patches of fresh blood stained the ship, with crew members slumped on the deck, lying in blood pools.
Gu Fan’s conjecture was that pirates had taken these crew members captive and transported them all onto the deck before executing them.
After exploring almost the entirety of the ship, no living people were found. They also discovered that a safety cabin door had been blown open, presumably by the pirates, to capture the crew member hiding within.
Su Hui shook her head in disbelief: "My God, since when have pirates started using such powerful explosives."
Gu Fan also found it strange: "Could this not have been done by pirates? Typically, pirates would take the crew hostage and demand a ransom. But this time, it seems no survivors were left."
This line of thinking was not only followed by Gu Fan, but also by Lin Xi, Su Hui, and the boss.
They then reached the cockpit, realising that the ship was moving aimlessly without anyone steering it.
To understand what had happened, they headed towards the surveillance room to look at the security footage. It turned out that most of the records were intact, however, some had been erased.
Looking at the surveillance video, it did indeed appear that the assailants were pirates from within the Triangle Sea Area, their movements, gait, and unprofessional handling of weapons were consistent with the pirates Gu Fan had previously encountered.
