It is said that under extreme emotions, a person’s brain can become strange, and they are capable of anything. Bai Chen felt that Mo Qiu’s mind was now a bit abnormal.
He had thought it was over, but little did he know, the real hell was just beginning.
Bai Chen wanted to deceive himself into believing that this thing just looked similar, definitely not what he imagined.
But in this bedroom, no matter how much he tried to lie to himself, he could not conceal the truth he had discovered.
“Mo Qiu, is this yours?” Bai Chen asked cautiously.
Mo Qiu not only nodded in confirmation but even showed him her treasure chest. Her collection brutally assaulted Bai Chen’s retina and brain.
Bai Chen felt as if he had opened the door to a whole new world. He stood there completely stunned.
Is this the Mo Qiu I know? Although contrast makes a person seem cute, he felt this exceeded the realm of contrast; it had become sheer shock.
“Mo Qiu, why are you giving this to me?” Bai Chen swallowed hard.
“I can’t use it.”
When he said that, Bai Chen fervently hoped that she would not utter something like “Why can’t you use it?”
When Mo Qiu shook her head, he breathed a sigh of relief, but the girl’s next words wiped the smile off his face:
“Help me.”
“Huh?”
“I don’t know… how to use it.”
Looking at the girl with a doll-like expression, Bai Chen turned his gaze to the box of treasures and once again fell into a daze.
A person who owns a whole box of collectibles—would anyone really believe they don’t know how to use them?
“Mo Qiu, if you want to play, I won’t disturb you…” Bai Chen stood up, but she grabbed his sleeve. Mo Qiu held on firmly; she was more serious than Bai Chen had imagined.
“Help me adjust the intensity.”
“But…” Bai Chen gave up resisting, “I don’t know what you like…”
“It’s fine. As long as it’s you, Bai Chen, you can do whatever you want.”
Your words are even stranger.
Mo Qiu stood up, facing him, and raised the detonator in her hand.
“Please, Bai Chen.”
“…”
“For my sake, use it.”
Bai Chen’s mouth twitched into a grimace. He was completely stunned.
He quickly dashed out of the room and slammed the door shut.
It took him a while to calm down. Gradually, Bai Chen understood the situation.
Only I can help Mo Qiu.
Since it has come to this, I can only tell a story.
I wonder if you’ve ever heard the story of a nautical adventurer?
The protagonist is Bai Chen·Baili Baisi, not only an adventurer but also an experienced sailor who has approached the abyss several times and escaped successfully.
However, Baili Baisi was a low-key person. He usually liked to mop the deck, bask in the sun, and enjoy a peaceful and beautiful life.
But on this day, before setting sail, he was approached by Captain Mo Huzi of the Windbell.
Although the captain was called Mo Huzi, she was a beautiful young girl, her face fair and smooth without a single stray hair.
Mo Huzi found Baili Baisi, hoping he could temporarily replace her as the captain of this voyage, while she would assist from the side.
Baili Baisi wanted to refuse, but seeing how pitiful Mo Huzi was, he agreed.
Bai Chen·Baili Baisi is a professional captain. Today, I will show you how to use skilled driving techniques to save an entire crew.
The sea looks calm, but beneath that placid surface, the deep ocean is turbulent, full of unknown forces and dangers.
Ocean currents silently weave through the depths, their power strong and mysterious, enough to drag even the sturdiest ship into the abyss.
In this place full of unknown dangers, without proper survival skills, you couldn’t even last a day.
The first thing to do is grip the ship’s helm. We can see that the helm has a total of seven gears, meaning it can reach speeds up to seven times that of an ordinary ship!
When starting the ship, you can’t go too fast. Begin from the first gear.
Hmm, successfully started, sailing smoothly.
The sea is calm.
Just then, Mo Huzi below suddenly spoke: “Baili Baisi, can you do it or not? So slow?”
Not enough?!
Who dares to doubt Baili Baisi’s driving skills?!
I immediately turned the helm up two gears. The originally leisurely ship accelerated, and most of the sailors didn’t react in time, knocked off their feet.
“Baili Baisi, still too slow.”
Still not enough?!
I, Bai Chen·Baili Baisi, am the great captain. Which fearless sailor dares to challenge my authority?!
Gear up again, fifth gear! Now the ship is as fast as a rocket. Let’s see who dares to be unconvinced!
Hmm, no sound?
The moment that thought popped into my head, a voice so seductive that it made my whole body tingle pierced his eardrums.
As a captain, I occasionally listen to music, but I prefer wonderful voices over melodies. If this voice could be considered a song, then among the many singers I’ve heard, it was the kind that captivates the soul.
The up-and-down pitch shifts were like a heart monitor jumping in a hospital ward. Even without melody, it could evoke resonance.
Not only did the upper house become intoxicated by this wonderful voice, but the lower house also stood up, vying for voting rights in the upper house.
Oh no, this is the song of the Sirens!
This is a legend spread across the seas. Sirens are strange creatures with the upper body of a human and the lower body of a fish, hence the name “mermaids.” They are naturally very beautiful, but even more alluring is their song.
The Sirens’ song fluttered in the sea breeze, their voices pure and full of magic. Every melody seemed like a whisper from sea spirits, luring passing ships.
The sailors’ once firm eyes began to glaze over. Their ears were captured by this heavenly sound, their souls deeply touched. The originally steady ship began to deviate from its course, heading toward treacherous waters full of hidden reefs.
Waves crashed against the rocks, issuing warning roars, but the sailors were oblivious. In the end, under the Sirens’ beautiful and deadly temptation, the ship hit the rocks, becoming another tragedy in the depths of the ocean. And the Sirens’ song still floated on the sea surface, waiting for the next lost traveler.
If I were an ordinary sailor, I would have been charmed long ago. But what kind of person am I, Baili Baisi? Such tricks could not…
Trashy Baili Baisi… not enough~
The Siren’s song was still clouding my mind. Fine, since you want to trap me, I’ll play along till the end! I, the great captain, will definitely reach the harbor safely!
Who am I? I am the great Captain Bai Chen·Baili Baisi, who has loved sailing since childhood and challenged the perilous seas many times. How could I be conquered by a mere Siren?
The last stretch of the voyage, helm to seventh gear!
No matter what song you sing, you cannot stop me, Bai Chen·Baili Baisi, from advancing toward the sea!
I don’t know how long it took, but the voyage ended. Bai Chen came to his senses like a drunken middle-aged man, the detonator in his hand flashing red.
“Out of battery?”
The sea that stirred up waves, and the Siren’s song—what a marvelous adventure.
Bai Chen looked up at the bedroom door. It was open.
When the girl walked out, Bai Chen’s vision blurred for a moment.
Having just expended a lot of energy, her cheeks still held a trace of blush. Her lifeless fish eyes seemed to have lingering ripples of tenderness.
Had those songs really come from inside? Was that truly Mo Qiu’s voice?
That was the aloof Mo Qiu, with dead fish eyes that even sunlight couldn’t brighten!
Haha, this must be a dream, right?
Yes, it must be a dream. After the battle, I was injured and passed out, so I’m having this strange dream.
But this dream is too weird, so realistic.
Except for the blush still lingering on her cheeks, Mo Qiu looked no different from usual. She picked up the toy that had fallen on the floor and walked over to Bai Chen.
“Th-thanks.”
The girl’s voice was a bit hoarse. Bai Chen quickly poured her a glass of water.
Watching her hold the cup and obediently drink it all, Bai Chen couldn’t help but sigh in relief.
A cool girl—this was the Mo Qiu he knew.
As for the songs just now, well, they must have come from a beached Siren.
By the way, Mo Huzi… ah no, Mo Qiu, here, take this back.
Bai Chen was relieved it was finally over.
“All good now?”
“Mm.”
Yes! Finally survived hell!
“Bai Chen, you have good technique.”
“Huh?”
No matter how he interpreted Mo Qiu’s words, it was strange. Bai Chen could only nod randomly.
I just turned up the gears; how is that good technique?
Mo Qiu stared at him with her dead fish eyes.
“I hope you can keep playing with me?”
Bai Chen gasped, looking at the thing in her hand.
“…”
Bai Chen didn’t know how to answer her.
“Um, Mo Qiu, why do you think I’m good at this…” Bai Chen himself didn’t know why he asked that.
“Isn’t Bai Chen very experienced?” Mo Qiu tilted her head, seemingly puzzled.
“…Where did you hear that?”
“Because Bai Chen has other female friends, don’t you often play with them?”
“…”
“If she’s not around, you can come to me.” Mo Qiu looked into his pitch-black eyes. “I don’t mind you using…”
“Stop!”
Bai Chen interrupted her, his expression unusually serious.
“First, I don’t have any female friend as you said.”
“Really?” Mo Qiu’s eyes widened slightly.
“Second, you can’t belittle yourself like you’re a backup tool. Didn’t I tell you to take care of yourself?”
“Okay.” Mo Qiu paused. “Really? No close female friends?”
Bai Chen scratched his head, surprised that this was her focus.
“Yes!”
Mo Qiu held her breath.
“It’s you!”
Bai Chen pointed at her with a bright smile.
“If you insist on me helping you, then don’t put on that humble attitude. We are friends. You should come to me as a friend, understand?”
“Okay.”
So Bai Chen doesn’t have another woman?
His demeanor didn’t seem like acting. Mo Qiu couldn’t find a chance to press further.
For now, she would trust him. If he really had another woman, he would eventually slip up.
For some reason, Mo Qiu felt much more at ease. Tonight, the helm would return to the meticulous Captain Mo Huzi.
