Rule Strange: Urban Legends That Don't Exist

Chapter 205 Deep into the Dark
Chen Yan's cabin is below the deck, somewhere close to the side of the ship.

This is a "cell cabin" that existed as a warehouse. Now that there is not enough cargo on the ferry, these cabins are vacated and exist as inferior cabins specially opened for people who have not purchased normal tickets.

The reason why these cabins are considered as cheap inferior cabins is not entirely because they used to be warehouses, but also because the bulkheads of these lattice cabins are outside the sea. As long as there are stormy nights, the waves hitting the bulkheads can even shake people's bodies. deafened ears.

In addition to the serious noise issues, there are hygiene issues - there is absolutely no such thing as a washroom, not even a decent toilet.

The only "outlet" is a downward vent.

It’s not completely useless to be here. When the waves are big enough, the water flowing up from the vent can clean the whole person in all directions, and even save people the trouble of taking a bath—except for being cooler and fishy. Besides, it's almost perfect.

But if one's luck is unlucky, just in time to catch up with the sea breeze...

There is no worse situation in the world.

The composition of the passengers living in the lattice cabin is complex. According to Chen Yan's observation since boarding the ship, there are at least [-] ethnic groups gathered here.

From the Tianshenzhou people, Yingguo people, Nan'an people, Johor people, and Niguo people subdivided from Asians, to the Suka Britons, Manghele people, Jizi people, and Hailar people subdivided into the vast northern ethnic groups, And then to the red-skinned Andyne...

Overseas Lukes, Franjis, Jerimans, Goliaths, Phoenixes, Ayres subdivided from most of the European ethnic groups who boarded the ship halfway, to the very rare Rogge The Rogni, Tuban, and Guogang people subdivided from the Ni ethnic group...

Before Chen Yan boarded the boat, he had never even heard the names of these ethnic groups.

These people are not all misers like him, there are quite a few poor people, and stingers who are more stingy than him.

People get on the boat, and then it seems to have gone through a long journey that took most of their lives.

It took Chen Yan a long time to realize that the sea and the blue sky and white clouds are also tiresome.

He carried the white cat into the corridor between the compartments, walking through the thick smell of smoke and alcohol.

After greeting the old alcoholic Goliath next door and confirming that his cabin was safe, he took out the key from his pocket with one hand to open the door, and entered his cabin with a wish in the other hand.

Turning around and closing the cabin door, most of the noise is isolated from the door—as the lattice cabin originally used as a warehouse, in order to ensure that water vapor will not intrude, the doors of these cabins are almost all sealed, which makes the noise from the corridor Incoming sounds are well isolated.

Caring for a dying white cat is not an easy task.

Two days ago, the old alcoholic Goliath next door almost died of drunkenness, but was finally rescued by a Johor god stick with three mouthfuls of milk.

When the Johor god stick used milk to promote his cult, Chen Yan took the opportunity to ask for a small half spoonful of milk from the dirty paint bucket in his hand and feed it to the white cat.

After confirming that the white cat was not allergic to lactose, Chen Yan went to the livestock breeding cabin in the center of the ferry every day to buy about [-]ml of milk.

Boil a little bit of crushed rice into the pot, then mix the torn chicken breast into it, boil the two, mix it in milk heated to about 60 degrees, wait for it to cool, and it will become white. Cats eat all day long.

The white cat’s eating speed is very slow, which seems to be due to the lack of hardness of the teeth. Even if it tries its best, it can’t make the "gnawing" movement, at most it is "smacking", and it can only eat one bite at a time. Ding bit.

But the white cat seems to have a good foundation. Even if it can only eat a little every day, its body is gradually rejuvenating.

After "reading" this part of Chen Yan's memory, Wish was almost stunned.

'This memory...is not made up. '

'It is indeed what Chen Yan experienced after boarding the ship. '

'In this way, what happened in front of me, and what I just saw from Chen Yan's head, are still real events that existed in the memory fragments of the world. '

'What went wrong was people's bodies and memories, as well as the ferry—including Chen Yan, the people on board completely forgot about the bloody sacrifice and the silence of the ferry. '

'In people's minds, the memory of the previous banquet hall was [choked out] by her. '

She looked at Chen Yan's clumsy appearance, but her heart was complicated.

'Am I... so difficult to raise? '

'William Master, that bastard, why did you find me such a frail body?Are you afraid that I will be out of control?You really underestimated me...'

She watched Chen Yan cook the rice paste again, and then slowly process the chicken breast, her eyes became dazed.

'Is that how he fed me when I was on the boat? '

She watched Chen Yan prepare and eat, then held "self" in her arms again, and fed her with a spoon like a baby.

She sniffed the faint smell of adult man's sweat mixed with saponins and wild chrysanthemums at the tip of her nose, her head was dizzy, and she felt very familiar.

'Is it because I have been held in his arms all the time that I am so familiar with his smell later? '

Her inner feelings are extremely complicated, and this is not an emotion that belongs to her—the objectively existing world spirit cannot have any "subjective" thoughts, including various emotions.

Emotions come from this body—the various emotions generated in the body of this alien white tiger make Wish empathize with it.

"The emotions of carbon-based creatures... are really amazing..."

After eating a small spoonful of milk mixed with minced chicken breast and rice paste, Wish raised his head to take a breather, but suddenly saw, beyond the round porthole behind Chen Yan—a ship with no cabin Outside the skin, the monster girl's soft face appeared here, and she met her gaze with "venomous" eyes.

Wish was taken aback by her expression, subconsciously thought:
'No, that perverted girl is extremely possessive, and she hates other people stealing Chen Yan from her the most...

Although I'm not robbing, and I don't care about it at all, but in this state, she will definitely misunderstand! '

Seeing that the white cat in his arms suddenly stopped eating, Chen Yan was puzzled, and coaxed with an extremely "disgusting" voice in Wish's ears:

"Hey~ Take another bite~"

Wish shuddered and almost spit out the food he had just eaten.

Looking out of the porthole again, my sister disappeared at some point, leaving only five faint finger marks on the porthole—the traces that the porthole glass was pressed to the point of deformation.

'Is the quality of this glass so good... Maybe it's because although I was very angry, I didn't want to break the window and hurt Chen Yan, so I restrained my strength. '

'I messed with her...'

Wish subconsciously took a mouthful of food, muttering with soft teeth, while thinking:
"Never mind her, anyway, Chen Yan is carrying it, so let's talk about it after we have eaten our fill." '

Seeing the white cat struggling to eat, Chen Yan showed a kind smile, and stretched out his hands from head to buttocks.

"So cute~"

"Hey... why did you vomit..."

The time on the ship became very long during the long journey, and after a few days, Wish finally roughly figured out his current situation.

'[Exit] really completely disappeared. '

'I'm really stuck here... trapped in the [non-existent ferry] that monster girl made. '

'what do I do? '

　I read every message carefully.

　　Some replied, because they had a plan in their hearts.

　　Some didn't reply, because I didn't know what to say, or it involved spoilers, or some people directly started to comment after reading it at a glance, so I deleted it directly.

　　More than half of your guesses are correct, because I seldom make very cryptic hints. In fact, when I write some slightly cryptic plots, I am afraid that you will not be able to guess them, so I basically write very superficially.

　　I don't want everyone to turn back after seeing a plot because they can't understand it-that's too tiring, it's just reading novels, it's unnecessary.

　　In short, please believe what you see.

　　Most of your guesses are correct.

　　If it is not correct, I may not reply, or some guesses are too outrageous, so I will delete them directly, because such guesses will confuse others and interfere with other people's reading experience.

　　This book is not written according to the normal routine, so when I wrote each chapter, I was very disturbed, wondering if readers could accept such a plot, or whether the hints in each chapter could be understood by readers — This is the hardest thing, I want to write a hint, but it must be controlled enough to be understood — so I fall into a strange pain every day.

　　What alleviates this pain is your book reviews, guesses about the plot, and encouragement to me.

　　Thank you very much for reading this book. I feel very happy when I see every recommendation ticket and monthly ticket. As an author, the recognition of readers is the biggest motivation for writing a book.

　　Thank you all!
