"Sister Lixin, did you just let them go?" Looking down at the three girls who were cautiously approaching the dock in the dark night outside the window, the secretary Xiao Zhang frowned and asked Yang Lixin, the head of the academy beside him, for instructions.

"It's their own choice, since they want to go, let them go on their own. That's all we can do to help them. Seeing the three girls get on the speedboat docked next to the pier, Yang Lixin stood motionless, but her voice clearly came into the ears of Xiao Zhang beside her.

"Sister Lixin, you didn't seem to have said that just now." Turning his head to look at Yang Lixin, the head of the academy beside him, the secretary Xiao Zhang's face showed a trace of strangeness, which was an expression that wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh.

"Oh? Did I just say something? Raising her eyebrows, Yang Lixin said innocently.

"You made it clear that they would make the same choice as we did. We didn't sneak out of the academy in the first place. Somewhat dissatisfied with Yang Lixin's pretended innocent expression, the secretary pouted and said unceremoniously.

"But she didn't come out of the crystal in the first place. Xiao Zhang, I didn't expect that after so many years, you still haven't grown at all. Forget it, I don't count on you anymore, I'll clean the toilet tomorrow honestly. ”

Glancing at Xiao Zhang helplessly, Yang Lixin shook her head and made a look like you were helpless, turned around and walked towards her bedroom.

"Huh? Huh?! Wait, Sister Lixin, you're cheating. You obviously didn't mean it that way before. ”

Standing stunned and entangled for a few seconds before Xiao Zhang reacted, Yang Lixin's previous meaning was obviously that they would treat it as if nothing had happened to them. It's not at all what it means to stand on the side of the crystal girl like this, this person is actually playing tricks again.

"Alas, a big failure. Sure enough, it's not so easy to be hostile to the world, unfortunately. When the three girls secretly left the academy and began to embark on their journey to find the truth, in the endless sea, Zhuang Xiaoyuan was crying out for misfortune.

Just now, after taking a speedboat at the pier and driving into the sea, Zhuang Xiaoyuan began to be unlucky continuously. First, the bottom of the speedboat hit a reef when it was far from the shore, and a hole was made directly in the bottom of the boat.

When Zhuang Xiaoyuan finally found the ship repair tool on the ship and patched the hole with rubber sheets, he found that the fuel tank of the speedboat was actually leaking. By the time Zhuang Xiaoyuan noticed it, the oil in the tank had basically leaked.

found that the fuel in the tank had leaked, and of course Zhuang Xiaoyuan wanted to go back to the dock just now to change to a speedboat. However, when she looked up, she found that the pier just now was long gone.

Driven by the waves of the ebb tide, Zhuang Xiaoyuan's speedboat has been pushed into the deep sea by the waves, and has left the dock just now.

Well, no gas is not a big deal, there are also a few oars in this small speedboat, and the speed of rowing with Zhuang Xiaoyuan's physical strength is not slow.

However, the ship's compass was also broken and did not move at all. The nautical chart doesn't know if it was bitten by a mouse or a bug, and it can't be seen at all.

Well, no gas, no charts, no compass, then you can only find a random direction. But, under the premise of all these bad things, there is nothing to eat on board......

Faced with the situation that the most important thing was unprepared, Zhuang Xiaoyuan could only shout misfortune in addition to secretly hating his own negligence and big accident. I'm going to be hungry for a while, and I don't know if I'll be able to find a desert island with living creatures before starving to death.

Compared with Zhuang Xiaoyuan's unlucky luck who didn't prepare anything, the three girls who were fully prepared and secretly ran away were very comfortable. According to Liu Qianqian's speculation and what Zhuang Xiaoyuan said to Xia Feifei before, the three girls went directly to the Chongwu Academy, which was closest to the Stigmata Academy.

And when the three girls went to Chongwu Academy, Zhuang Xiaoyuan drifted farther and farther away with the sea without a goal, and had already passed the area of Chongwu Academy and went farther and farther. So, they missed it perfectly.

On the clear blue sea, a huge cargo ship slowly moved forward, riding the wind and waves towards its destination.

This is an antique freighter, and although various advanced radar functions have been installed on board, there is still an antique observation deck on the outside of the hull. Of course, although the observatory is shaped like an ancient mast, a special high-powered telescope is installed on the observatory.

On this day, the lookout of the freighter boarded the lookout again, as usual, after lunch. Who told them that the boss doesn't believe in modern technology, but more in manpower. Trust the human eye more than radar, which is why such a strange lookout is installed on a freighter.

With the thought in the palm of the lookout's hand, my work is actually useless at all. What can be discovered by oneself has been scanned by the radar long ago, and what the radar can't scan, how can the human eye notice it?

Therefore, the daily work of the lookout is still very leisurely, basically staying on the lookout and being bored to look at the scenery to kill time. However, today seems to be different from usual, a small boat floating on the sea comes into the eyes of the lookout, but there is no radar sound on the boat.

"Boss, boss, is our radar broken? Why is there no sound? I saw what looked like a ship was floating in front of me. ”

Noticing the small ship that appeared in his sight, but not hearing the usual radar prompts, the lookout had a puzzled expression on his face, and shouted down to the boss on the deck.

"Boats? What ship? Are there any signs? One rolled over and jumped off the deck chair on the side of the deck, and the boss asked the lookout as he turned his head to look at the control room through the glass.

"It looks like a small runabout, and there is only one person on it, like, it's still a woman." Hearing the boss's inquiry, the lookout immediately took a closer look at the boat in the distance with a telescope and replied.

"Boss, the radar didn't react anything. There were no ships in the nearby waters at all. While the lookout replied to the boss's inquiry, he noticed the boss's line of sight, and the radar officer in the control room also replied loudly.

"Cut, what a broken machine, I know it's unreliable. Come, let me see, in which direction? Pouting disdainfully, the boss climbed up to the lookout with his hands and feet, looked at the binoculars on the lookout, and asked the lookout beside him.

"Over there, south to east, about one o'clock direction." Sideways to dodge, giving up his position to the Boss, the lookout is very clever enough to tell the Boss the direction he found the boat.
