Chapter 8: Cruise Ship First Boarding (2)

Su Wanfu didn't keep them. He just suggested that they went to have a good rest, and then met in this mini-theater at 7 o'clock in the evening, before leaving with a smile on his face with his men.

Yue Yin said with emotion: "This Su Wanfu is quite enthusiastic, it would be great if everyone else was like him."

Jiang Yan patted his shoulder and walked out: "I don't know if Su Wanfu is really enthusiastic, but I know you're really stupid."

"Huh?" Yue Yin turned to look at Mo Xiaoyao, hoping she could help explain.

Out of the spirit of caring for rare animals*, Mo Xiaoyao kindly explained to him: "Not everyone is as kind as you. This Su Wanfu doesn't know us at all, how did he know that we got on the boat at that time? If I know, how did you know? If you don't know, he doesn't look like we met by chance."

*since this kind of naïve good guys are really rare, like an extinct animal.

Yue Yin thought for a while, but still didn't understand. Because of his trust in his teammates who had a life and death friendship together with him, he decided to follow Jiang Yan and Mo Xiaoyao to leave.

"Then what are we going to do now?" Yue Yin asked, reaching into the back pocket of his jeans, and took out a black card, "I'm 8003 on the 8th floor, sea view room."

Jiang Yan took out the pocket of his coat. Yue Yin also took out his card, and said concisely: "8027 on the 8th floor."

Yue Yin looked at Mo Xiaoyao, saw that the latter had also taken out her card, and leaned over and read: "8019 on the 8th floor - great, the three of us are on the same floor."

"Let's go then." Jiang Yan walked out of the small theater, turned around, and saw the sightseeing elevator near the atrium bar, "Go back first to find out what clues are in the room, you can't just listen to that surname Su's one-sided words."

Mo Xiaoyao had no objection, and Yue Yin had no objection. After the three of them left the small theater, they walked along the red carpet on the ground and walked to the observation elevator. Jiang Yan pressed the up button and waited for the elevator. arrival.

Behind them, separated by an aisle, was a slightly wider and small waiting hall. There are four elevators on the left and right sides, which are used by guests to prevent the inconvenience of getting up and down due to the large number of people.

Now was not the peak period of what was called an elevator. After a few seconds, the sightseeing elevator stopped on the third floor, and the door opened with a "ding dong" to welcome Mo Xiaoyao and the others.

The appearance of the elevator was no different from the ones that Mo Xiaoyao saw in the shopping mall, except that it was larger, and the entrance was narrower, in the shape of a narrow-mouthed big-bellied bottle*. There are only the three of them in this elevator now. Naturally, they all chose the side close to the glass, waiting to ascend while watching the outside.

*here is a random image of a "narrow-mouthed big-bellied bottle" from Taobao:

The glass side of the sightseeing elevator was against an atrium area with a bar, which was quite spacious and can accommodate more than 100 people on the dance floor at the same time. The tones were not dull either. Compared with the horror of the doomsday cruise ship in the imagination, it was more like an ordinary cruise ship, with lanterns and colorful decorations.

The NPC bartender stood at the bar and provided services to customers from time to time. If she ignored his octopus face, Mo Xiaoyao would almost think that she was actually on an ordinary cruise ship.

It took 20 seconds to go from layer 3 to layer 8, with an average of 4 seconds per layer. The elevator door opened, and Mo Xiaoyao followed the others out. Looking around, she found that this floor seemed to be only for cabin, and there was no entertainment venue.

On both sides of the elevator door, there was a connecting corridor each, and on the opposite side of the elevator door, there was also a connecting corridor passing through a waiting room with an area of about 30 square meters.

The three of them walked in three different directions in tacit understanding, looking for the location of their room number.

The side Mo Xiaoyao chose had a sign with 8081-8120 written on it. She turned her head to look at Jiang Yan on the other side of her corridor, and the other party shook his head.

"8121-8160." Jiang Yan said, stepping on the carpet under his feet and walking towards the opposite corridor, "It seems that there were 160 rooms on this floor."

Mo Xiaoyao did some calculations in her own mind, and felt that it was a bit strange. When she wanted to say that the number of cabins might not match the number of people on board, they heard Yue Yin call them from the opposite side.

"8001-8040, this way." After Yue Yin finished speaking, he walked in first.

The corridor was very quiet, no other guests came out, and there was no way to hear the movement in the room through the cabin door, so there was no way to confirm whether they were empty or if there were people.

"This is me." Jiang Yan stopped after walking a few steps. The room numbers were ordered from the bow to the stern in odd and even numbers. 8040 was the first room in the corridor. To reach his 8027 room, they just needed to take a few more steps inside.

Mo Xiaoyao nodded, her room was 8019, and she had to go a few steps further: "See you at 7." She said, and walked past the cabin of 8027.

The other two continued to walk forward on the soft carpet. Yue Yin's fingers slid all the way over the light yellow wallpaper on the wall, and accompanied Mo Xiaoyao to the outside of her room: "Hey, you two only have to walk this far, then I have to continue to go there (alone)."

Mo Xiaoyao ignored Yue Yin's complaint, opened the door with the boat card, then walked in, and left a sentence: "See you at 7 o'clock" to Yue Yin, and closed the door under the reluctance in the other party's eyes.

After being alone in a room, Mo Xiaoyao was really relieved, and the whole person relaxed.

She was in a sea-view room with a square window with rounded corners and sky blue curtains hanging on both sides. It couldn't be opened, and there was no balcony, but at least it was much better than the inner stateroom where the light was turned off.

The room was not big, the initial estimate is about 20 square meters, a large bed of about 1.5x2m is under the window, covered with white sheets and a colorful striped bed towel.

Next to the bed was a small bedside table with a regular lamp standing on it. On the side of the bedside table was a blue two-seater sofa, and in front of the sofa is a mini coffee table, on which was placed a white porcelain teapot, two white porcelain tea bowls, and a welcoming glass of orange juice.

Opposite the sofa, there was a corner-style cabinet that makes perfect use of the corner space in the cabin.

There was a TV on the cabinet, and some remote control and other messy things. Mo Xiaoyao walked over and opened the drawer to take a look. It was empty inside. After opening the bottom door, she found a small safe, which could be set with a password or swiped with a ship card.

Behind the corner part was the washroom, which was on the left-hand side after entering the door. It's quite small, but the sink, shower and bath amenities, towels, slippers, etc. were all complete.

On the right-hand side after entering the door, there was a wardrobe with a sliding door. After opening, an orange light will light up at the top of the wardrobe, which made it convenient for guests to choose clothes.

Of course, it was also empty now.

In the position between the wardrobe and the sofa, there was a table about 80 centimeters long, on which are placed a copy of "Instructions for Tourists" and a copy of "Introduction to Cruise Ships", which was what Mo Xiaoyao needs most now.

Picking up both pamphlets, Mo Xiaoyao fell directly on the sofa, and started to read slowly from "Introduction to Cruise Ships".

The booklet is very thin, including the front and back covers, there are only 5 pages in total. A lot of official welcome words are written on it, and then the basic facilities and layout of the cruise ship are introduced, and the opening time and precautions of various facilities were written there.

In short, from this cruise ship, there was hardly any remarks about doomsday. If you get it on the earth before the explosion, it can be used as a normal brochure and put it on the newspaper racks of major travel agencies for interested tourists to take.

After silently memorizing the plan of the cruise ship and the opening hours of the facilities, Mo Xiaoyao thought about it, and instead of throwing the booklet into the trash can beside the coffee table like what she initially plan, she threw it back on the table. Let's keep it for now, in case there was a mistake or she couldn't remember, at least there would be a reference.

Then she opened that "Guide to Visitors" and saw what she really wanted to see from it.

    Notes for tourists

    1. Tourists must abide by the rules of the cruise ship and are not allowed to disembark at will. Violators will be directly obliterated.

    2. Tourists can use the cafeteria for free, as well as general facilities including ordinary duty-free shops, gyms, swimming pools, libraries, cinemas, casinos, mini-theaters, hospitals, etc.

    3. Special supplies and facilities will be prompted before use, and the charges are open and transparent, so customers do not need to worry about being deceived.

    4. The room of tourists is of absolute security level, and no one can hurt the owner of the room in the room. To this end, each visitor needs to pay a daily service fee, which varies according to the class of the cabin. The first three days for new passengers to board the ship is a special offer period where service charges are waived.

    5. For the inner cabin, 1 gold per person per day, 3 gold for sea view room, 5 gold for balcony room, and 10 gold for suite. Gold coins can be obtained by completing daily bounty tasks, which can be accumulated and exchanged, and will not be cleared except for death.

    6. Every 15 days, a Game Today will appear in the room, which will introduce at least 5 games. Each game has a limit on the number of people, and tourists sign up voluntarily, but the game will only start if the minimum number of people is met. If the minimum number is not met, the game won't start and will be restarted in the next issue of Game Today.

    7. The cruise ship will continue to move forward only if each game is activated, that is, "all games meet the minimum number of registrations", otherwise the ship will continue to drift in the sea of fog and never dock.

    8. Every once in a while, the cruise ship will stop at the sightseeing station. At that time, all tourists must obey the arrangement of the tour guide and disembark for sightseeing. Unless there is an exemption card issued by a doctor, tourists who refuse to disembark over time will be directly obliterated.

    9. If you have any questions about the above, please consult the information desk in the atrium on the 3rd floor.

    10. Wish you all a pleasant journey and arrive at the end of the cruise as soon as possible.

Mo Xiaoyao lay on her back on the sofa, holding the "Instructions for Tourists" in one hand and behind her head in the other, frowning in thought.

Obviously, some things here were not clearly written, such as this daily reward task for gold coins, what time is it, and where is it awarded? Is it a random choice, or is it designated by NPC? Is there any danger, what type? This was not written on it, it seemed that they need to go to the information desk to find NPCs, or explore on their own.

Also, this Game Today was also very suspicious, and the fact that they were not forced to enter the dungeon itself was not normal during doomsday like this.

*I put Game Today on italic because it is originally written in English.

There was no free lunch in the world, and Mo Xiaoyao felt that it was impossible for this cruise ship life to be like what Su Wanfu said, that you can just eat and wait for death, that you can spend time safely.

In short, this matter must be mentioned with Jiang Yan and Yue Yin, and it was best if they could discuss a solution.

But now... Mo Xiaoyao looked at the pair of socks with yellow stripes and a bear pattern on her feet, and decided to go to the duty-free shop that wouldn't cost money to find a pair of suitable shoes.
