If you are asked to deliver food, you will attract suspects everywhere

Chapter 293 Murder
  "Come on!"

Asong snapped his fingers,
  Then he quickly walked out of the lounge.

The middle-aged man was obviously also interested.

Pulled out a cardboard box from under the stool and said:
  "I also have a bag of beef jerky here, which is just right for drinking."

Ning Ye saw this,

He spread his hands in embarrassment and said:
  "Sorry, I came empty-handed. I don't seem to have brought anything."

The middle-aged man hurriedly said:
  "Brother, look what you said, you didn't even blame me for causing you so much trouble because of my mistake, so why are you so embarrassed to ask for your things?"

The captain next to him also nodded and said:
  "This time it is indeed our problem. Let's have a good meal tonight as an apology to you."

Ning Ye didn't say anything after hearing this.

Next,
  He took the initiative to help clean and process some frozen ingredients.

After half an hour,
  The four of them gathered around the brass hotpot where the alcohol block was burning.

Eat happily under the orange gas lamp.

It was getting close to evening at this time,

There was a violent storm outside the cabin,

The temperature in the air also dropped sharply.

The four of them were eating hot hot pot,

Drinking beer and chatting,
  In the steaming water mist and spicy aroma from the bottom of the pot,
  Everyone got along quickly.

The hull of the passenger ship is very stable,

Just swaying slightly in the strong wind,
  Ning Ye drank a few cans of beer.

Although the person was not drunk, he still felt a little tipsy.

The captain, the middle-aged man and Asong were all in great spirits.
  All three of them are heavy smokers.
  While eating and drinking,

While puffing away smoke.

"Little brother, you said that in addition to delivering food, you are also a detective? To be honest, I think you are bragging, but this reminds me of a murder case I heard a few years ago!"

The captain blew a smoke ring,
  He squinted his eyes and looked at Ning Ye.

Upon hearing this,
  Asong, whose cheeks were a little red from drinking, seemed to be interested and asked:

"Boss, what murder case? Why haven't I heard you talk about it before?"

The captain picked up the beer on the makeshift wooden table,
  He took a sip and said:
  "I'm afraid you are too timid to have sex with me after hearing this."

Asong held the cigarette between his index fingers and waved,
  He said with some dissatisfaction:
  "Boss, you are looking down on me. I have loved reading horror stories since I was a child. When I was a child, I was not afraid when I walked alone at night. It's okay, just say it!"

At this time,

The middle-aged man chewing beef jerky on the side was obviously interested and said:

"In this bad weather, it's good to hear stories. Captain, don't hide it. How can we gentlemen be frightened by any murders? Just treat it like a horror story!"

Ning Ye sat beside him and said nothing.

His expression is always relatively calm,

He has been to the scene of the crime more than a dozen times.
  Murder stories are really unattractive.

At this time,

The captain took a piece of mutton roll from the hot pot,

Put it in your mouth and chew it,
  Then he took another sip of beer and said:
  "Since you want to hear it, I'll tell you about it. I'll explain it in advance. Don't be afraid after I tell you!"

"Boss, I noticed how you are whining and whining, please tell me quickly, I am listening with my ears pricked up?"

"That's right, Captain, please don't betray us."

Asong and the middle-aged man both urged him one after another.
  The captain's curiosity was obviously piqued.

The captain glanced at the three people at the table.
  Finally, his eyes fell on Ning Ye,

He said word by word: "The murder I'm talking about actually happened on Jizhou Island where we are!"

As soon as this word comes out,
  Asong and the middle-aged man were both stunned.

"Real or false? When did it happen?"

"I've been working here for several years. How come I haven't heard of a murder happening here?"

After the middle-aged man reacted,

asked with some uncertainty.

Asong, on the other hand, shrank his neck and said:

"Boss, please don't scare me. I haven't even explained the specifics of this case in detail yet. Just give me a slap on the head right from the start!"

The captain shook his head and said:

"I have long seen that you are cowardly, but you still refuse to admit it. To tell you the truth, the case was a big deal at that time, and five people died. And I heard that the murderer has not been found yet. !”

"Hi~!"

The sound of a long breath came from the lounge of the cabin.

In the air filled with smoke and vapor,
  There was a strange color on the middle-aged man's face,
  Asong was all excited.

"What kind of murder was it? Captain, what do you know about it?"

At this time,

Ning Ye, who had been silent until now, suddenly asked.

The captain's words had aroused some interest in him;
  If this murder really exists,

So the problem he wants to solve this time,
  It might be related to the murder mentioned by the captain.

"Let me go, little brother, you are so brave. I see that you have always maintained a calm expression, but the murder happened on this island. Don't you feel panic at all?"

Asong turned to look at Ning Ye and asked.

The middle-aged man at the table narrowed his eyes.
  Taking a puff of cigarette,

Then he slowly spit it out and said:

"What are you afraid of? I think maybe the captain is deliberately making up stories to make us happy?"

The captain glanced at the middle-aged man and said:
  "If it's not true, what's the point of telling you the truth? Lao Wang, don't believe it. Although you have been working here for several years and you are considered an old man, I have been working here longer than you!"

said,

The captain put out the cigarette butt in his hand,

Then take out a cigarette from the cigarette box and light it again,

For a moment, the whole person seemed to be trapped in memories.

"The murder probably happened nine years ago. I can't remember the exact time. Smartphones were not yet popular at that time. I remember that I was still using a straight capacitive touch screen machine."

"Mobile phones at that time were not cheap. They cost me half a month's salary. I regretted it very much at the time, because in less than a month, smartphones became popular. I had no choice but to grit my teeth and spend money to buy them again. Got a smart phone.”

Listen to the captain say this,

Asong weakly interjected:
  "Boss, please stop. We want to hear about the murder, not your nostalgia here. Besides, when smartphones first came out, I saved up money to buy one. It's not surprising!"

The captain shook his head and said:

"You must have spent money from your family. Of course I don't feel bad. It's my own money. Forget it, I'll continue talking about the case!"

The captain took a slow drag on his cigarette.

The burning cigarette butt suddenly lit up with scarlet light spots in the steam of the hot pot,
  He went on to say:

"At that time, the tourism projects around the islands were not fully developed. I followed a former master of mine to drive a passenger ship. However, the ship was relatively small and could only carry a few dozen people at most."

"The passenger ship I was on at that time did not have a fixed operating route. As long as passengers needed it, it would basically go to several surrounding islands."
