I thought for a moment and then said, "Well, I also know it's not that simple. By the way, those red ropes you asked Jenny to prepare seem to be just for show?"
Jiao Ba said with a grin, "That's right, the red rope fart is of no use. Just drink some vinegar. Otherwise, how can they believe that they are possessed by evil spirits."
But I still asked a little doubtfully, "Even if There is some toxin, but why do I see the appearance of that female corpse? ?”
Jiao Ba looked at me and said, “It’s simple, it’s because she brings fear in your heart. You really need to check the sunken ship. Maybe Li Xin knows what’s in the sunken ship.”
“Yeah , That female corpse really scares me. By the way, Lao Ba, could Li Xin be the man in black? But judging from the voice and figure of the man in black at that time, it doesn’t match up at all. " I put out the cigarette butt and asked with confusion.
"Well, this is definitely inconsistent. At present, we can only say that it is possible, but we still cannot be sure. Do you remember when we analyzed it that night? I asked you if you were sure that the note was from the man in black. To stay, you said you couldn’t do it at the time, but later you didn’t I analyzed that there might be another person behind the scenes. During this time, I have been wondering, were we really the only three people who went to the shipwreck that night? The bird is behind you," Jiao Ba said with sharp eyes.
I thought for a while and then said, "It makes sense. Maybe there is another person hiding in the dark, but who could it be? Let's make an analogy first. If we met that night The man in black is Li Xin, so who is the other person hiding? "
Jiao Bakan? I glanced at him and said in the smallest voice in my ear, "I think it's Shunzi."
His words suddenly shocked me, and I looked at him with eyes that couldn't believe it, and said softly Said, "Don't talk nonsense, how could it be Shunzi." After I finished speaking, I glanced at Shunzi who was sleeping soundly, fearing that he could hear our conversation.
Jiao Ba may have also noticed it. He pulled me and motioned for us to go outside and talk. The two of us came to the deck. Jiao Ba said with a stern expression, "Do you still remember that night? When you and I came back, Shunzi wasn't in the rest cabin at all, but when we were about to go look for him, he came back. Isn't this suspicious enough?"
"Oh, what's the point? Didn't Shunzi also say that he went to the toilet? Isn't it normal? This is a coincidence." Although I said this, I had already suspected this in my heart. , but I have never wanted to doubt Shunzi, so I never mentioned it to Jiao Ba, but now it seems that he has already noticed it.
"How can there be so many coincidences? He didn't go early or late, but he went at this time? Think about your sworn brother, the man in black ran away first. Theoretically speaking, he didn't Should have returned to the ship after us, should have gone back before us , but if there is another person behind us, it is very likely that he has been following you and me, so this person will definitely return to the ship after us."
Jiao Ba's analysis is indeed true. It’s very comprehensive, but it’s not like I haven’t thought about these things. "Even if this is the case, we can't doubt that it's Shunzi just because of this."
"Okay, let's assume he's normal. Do you still remember that when Shunzi asked you why you were there, you said you I went to take a bath in the sea. Who would take a bath in the sea in the middle of the night? According to With Shunzi's character, he should have asked you more, but he didn't. He just said something casually and went to bed quickly. What does this mean? This means that he has something secret in his heart. Brother, think about it. See, is that true?" Jiao Ba said with a gloomy look.
His powers of observation and memory are indeed very strong. He still remembers such small details clearly. Putting aside Shunzi, even he is almost unrecognizable to me now. Now, is this still the carefree and playful Jiao Ba from before?
"Brother Yi, talk to me." Seeing that I didn't say anything, Jiao Ba reached out and pushed me.
I sighed and said, "Lao Ba, you also know that Shunzi and I have known each other for a long time. We have been friends for several years. How could he possibly do that?"
Jiao Ba He sneered and said, "Oh, Brother Yi, you are good at everything, but sometimes you are too emotional. Do you know Shunzi's past? Do you know what he used to do? You don't agree with him." We only met when we were sailors together. Can this be considered a good understanding? "
I can't refute what he said. Jiao Ba is right. I really don't know Shunzi's past." But I have known him for several years, and I know his personality very well, and it cannot be his. "I felt a little upset. What should I do if it is really Shunzi? What can I do?
“Brother Yi, let’s put aside your relationship with Shunzi first, but regarding this matter, you have also doubted him, right?” Jiao Ba tilted his head and looked at me with squinted eyes, It's like seeing through my heart.
"Shunzi has no reason to do this. Why would he do this? What good will it do to him?" I did not answer Jiao Ba's words directly.
Jiao Ba sneered and said, "Hey, we have to take our time to see this. Maybe only he knows what he does for."
"What about you? What do you do for it? What?" I stared at him and said calmly.
Jiao Ba patted me on the shoulder and said, "Brother Yi, you don't even doubt me, do you?"
"Haha, how could that be? It's just a joke, why should we take it seriously? We have been brothers for many years." I said with a smile on my face, pretending not to care.
"Don't worry, I didn't take it seriously. Before the matter is fully investigated, we must be careful about anyone." Jiao Ba said this, but I knew in my heart that he definitely didn't think so.
"Well, go back, old man, it's very cold here." I shrank my neck, turned around and walked towards the cabin.
I got up early the next morning, I didn't sleep well that night. Shunzi and him After we finished all the trouble, it was already late at night. When I think of what I said to Jiao Ba last night, I always feel blocked in my heart. Shunzi and I have been through life and death all the way, and now Jiao Ba also doubts him. Could it be that these things, Is he really involved?
I turned over and glanced at Shunzi sleeping next to me, but the bed next to me was empty. Where had Shunzi gone? I sat up suddenly, and Jiao Ba and the other sailors were whirring. Asleep, I quickly got out of bed Called Jiao Ba, "Lao Ba, Lao Ba, wake up, wake up."
Jiao Ba opened one eye and said reluctantly, "Shunzi got up early and went out. It's okay. Lost No. ”
"Damn, how the hell did you know?" I was a little surprised, how did he know that Shunzi was out.
Jiao Ba still said lazily, "I saw it. Don't disturb me if you have nothing else to do. I'm sleepy." After he finished speaking, he closed his eyes and fell asleep again.
This grandson, he is quite smart. Just when I was about to go out, the cabin door was pushed open, and Shunzi walked in with a plate, "Brother, you wake up, let's have breakfast." "
As he spoke, Shunzi's face recovered a lot and became less pale. "How are you feeling?" I looked at him and smiled. asked.
Shunzi handed me the chopsticks, nodded and said, "It's okay, Brother Yi, I may just have a cold. Li Xin also said that I was possessed by evil spirits. He was so serious about it, but he was talking nonsense." "Well, it's okay. Eat quickly. It won't be cold for a while." I didn't answer his words directly. I always felt that Shunzi and I were not as close as before, as if there was a layer of separation.
