[BL] I Wasn't Born Lucky (Unlimited Flow)

Chapter 75

The cat suddenly and inexplicably appeared. A cat wasn't special but a cat appearing on the ghost ship was very special. There were so many fish creatures yet the cat emerged unscathed and untouched. Still, it couldn't be said that this cat had anything special.

Xie Zeqing didn't feel any ghostly energy from it and it seemed to really be a cat feeding Xiao Li. No matter what he thought, shouldn't the object of feeding be the opposite?

Xie Zeqing looked at the cat. Xiao Li didn't pick up the chocolate at first. He just looked down at the kitten. Then the kitten used its paws to push the chocolate forward. It was quite firm. The coldness and deepness in the two eyes, which was magnified by the dim light, didn't fit with its cat-like appearance. The cat acted like it could do this the whole day if it didn't eat.

Xiao Li and the kitten looked at each other for a moment. He scratched the cat's chin, picked up the chocolate and ate it.

The other people who were a bit hungry, "..."

They wanted to eat as well! Xie Zeqing wondered, "What is the situation? Is it your cat?"

The kitten heard this and sat in front of Xiao Li, wagging his tail. Xiao Li corrected Xie Zeqing. "No, he was on board the ship and I fed him some seafood."

His words changed 'Shock! A cat is giving his secret lover something to eat' into 'Primary education textbook: Cat Repaying a Kindness'. The kitten dropped his head with disappointment. Xiao Li patted him on the head and looked at the room where they had fled to in a panic.

This room was significantly better than the last one. It wasn't comparable to the previous luxury cruise ship but compared to that bunk bed dorm, it was considered a rare and spacious room. This was apparently the room of the ghost ship's captain or the VIP room. There was a thick mattress on the bed, a sea map on the wall, a compass in the cupboard, a globe and a strange little Indian man statue. Xiao Li headed to the cupboard and rummaged through it but didn't find anything special.

Qi Xiaoxiao smiled and lifted the bed. She was checking the drawers when she suddenly said, "Did we fall into a misunderstanding?"

Xie Zeqing was originally standing a the door and staring at them coolly. He heard these words and his body straightened. "What misunderstanding?"

"Our mission isn't to find out the truth of the ghost ship. It is to find the ghost and destroy it. Then we can return to reality."

Wei Lige listened very seriously and opened his mouth. "Yet we haven't found the ghost. The water ghost and skeleton ghost didn't seem like the main ghost that would haunt us the entire time."

"Of course. If I was going to choose, I would pick the water ghost. We are surrounded by the sea and that one is definitely the most ghostly." Wei Lige added.

Qi Xiaoxiao habitually played with the Buddha beads around her wrist and denied Wei Lige's words. "No, I mean the 'ghost' is just a proxy. The mission description uses 'it' and there is no mention of a 'ghost. Then perhaps this ghost isn't the type of ghost we are familiar with but a symbol."

Xie Zeqing touched his chin. "You mean, the ghost is... an item?"

"I'm just saying, I think the 'ghost' is this ship!" Qi Xiaoxiao uttered the last word with an accent. "Think about it, from a luxury cruise ship to a ghost ship, this all happened at sea. It is because it is the sea that we can't escape and get rid of this ghost ship. Only by finding 'it' and destroying 'it', can we get rid of 'it'!"

Wei Lige asked, "Then how do we destroy the ship?"

Qi Xiaoxiao replied, "Set fire to it and burn it."
