Regardless of whether or not Zhao Yu was a lucky star, he seemed to have been blessed.
On the first night after he and Miao Ying had boarded the ship, Miao Ying's cold had gotten worse. She had already taken her medicine and was resting in the cabin.
Zhao Yu wanted to accompany his goddess, but Miao Ying had coaxed him out to look for clues.
Zhao Yu had no choice but to leave Miao Ying in the room and wander around the ship.
Sigh!
When he walked out of the room and walked along the corridor to the cruise ship's lobby, he couldn't help but sigh.
From the moment Zhao Yu had received the mission, he hadn't taken the cruise ship seriously. Although what Miao Ying said made sense, Zhao Yu believed that the ship had nothing to do with Xi Wei's treasure.
Although the brochure with the Uranus cruise ship's name had been found in Xi Wei's vault, that didn't mean anything.
He also felt that even if Tina wanted to leave some clues, she couldn't have left such an obvious one.
Moreover, Zhao Yu calculated the days. It had been ten days since he had solved the murder diary case. Including the time he had spent solving the case, it had been nearly a month since the incident in Korea.
The cruise brochure must have been found by the Koreans first. With Li Zhenzhu's shrewdness, they would have searched the cruise ship thoroughly. If there were any clues, they wouldn't have told the Secret Service so easily.
Moreover, Zhao Yu knew his father-in-law, Miao Kun, too well!
When he had answered Miao Kun's call, he could feel that Miao Kun's words were perfunctory. Therefore, he was very sure that Miao Kun had sent him and Miao Ying to search the cruise ship for selfish reasons.
No matter what, he was still afraid that his own daughter would be in danger. That was why he had arranged it this way.
Zhao Yu had long believed that his and Miao Ying's cruise was actually a holiday in disguise.
However, Miao Ying, who was on her first mission, didn't think so. Although she had a cold, Miao Ying was obviously more excited than Zhao Yu. She felt that she had to complete the mission and find clues no matter what.
Sigh!
Zhao Yu sighed again. How am I supposed to find clues on such a big cruise ship? It's just a brochure. How could it be related to Xi Wei's treasure?
Sigh …
Just as Zhao Yu sighed, there was another sigh coming from the entrance of the corridor next to him.
Oh?
The man's sigh caught Zhao Yu's attention.
He looked up and saw two people standing next to the trash can outside the corridor. It was a young man and an old man. The one who sighed was the old man.
The old man looked to be in his sixties, but he was dressed very fashionably. He wore plaid pants and a flowery shirt, and his hair was curled up. When he spoke, he even shook his head, looking very high and mighty!
However, Zhao Yu's eyes were sharp. He could tell from the old man's attire that he was not a poor man. His clothes were all branded, and he exuded the aura of a nouveau riche.
Smoking was not allowed in the cabin of the cruise, but this person ignored the rules. He held a very thick cigar in his hand and puffed out a cloud of smoke while complaining to the young man beside him!
"Damn, he must have done it on purpose!" The old man clenched his teeth and cursed. "What kind of f * cking cruise club is this? They are simply trying to embarrass us on purpose!
"Everyone knows that such a big thing happened, and he actually … actually brought these people in front of me. Tell me, did he do it on purpose?"
The old man then pressed the cigar against the trash can and crushed the cigarette butt. The cigar seemed to have only been smoked a few times, but he threw it straight into the trash can.
"What a sh * tty cigar! It's so much worse than a f * cking Cuban cannon!" The man cursed, but when he saw that Zhao Yu was looking at him, he stopped cursing.
"Let's go!" The old man waved at the young man. "I can't be bothered to talk to these people. Let's go to the ballroom and see if there are any hot chicks!"
Then, he walked past Zhao Yu with his head held high. When he brushed past Zhao Yu, he deliberately glanced at Zhao Yu.
The young man, who was probably the old man's assistant or secretary, quickly followed behind.
Zhao Yu looked at the cabin that the old man had come from and suddenly understood something.
Zhao Yu was on a business trip, so he had to book the best room on the cruise. However, in order to keep a low profile, the superior had only booked a luxurious balcony room for them.
However, the luxurious balcony room was not the best room on the Uranus. The best room was in the corridor that the old man had just come from.
There were all presidential suites on the cruise, complete with interior and exterior amenities. There was even a small swimming pool. Staying there for a night would cost at least 10,000 yuan.
It seems that … Zhao Yu looked at the old man's back and thought to himself, This guy is really rich. Moreover, he is already so old, yet he still wants to look for hot chicks? Well … Mm …
Zhao Yu couldn't help but think, Why don't I go to the ballroom with the old man?
Mm … After thinking about it, he decided not to!
Not only did he bring his girlfriend along, but she was also sick and had to stay in the cabin. If he went out to play, he would be a scumbag!
So, Zhao Yu changed his direction and went in the opposite direction of the old man.
To be honest, Zhao Yu didn't have a purpose. Although this was the first time in his life that he had ever taken a cruise, for someone like him who was used to seeing the world, a cruise ship was not attractive at all.
So, he just walked around the cruise ship and observed the environment to see if there was anything fun to do.
Before boarding the ship, he had already thoroughly studied the information about the cruise ship. He had also circled a few key areas, ready to investigate carefully to see if the ship had anything to do with Xi Wei's treasure.
Zhao Yu went up and down the cruise ship a few times. Finally, when he was tired, he walked to the entrance of the casino.
Seeing that the casino was quite lively, Zhao Yu didn't think too much about it and walked straight in.
Unexpectedly, something interesting happened. As soon as he entered, he saw that the old man smoking the cigar from before was also here.
He was sitting in front of the gambling table, holding a poker card in his hand and calculating something. But, his young assistant was nowhere to be seen.
Interesting … Didn't he go to the ballroom? Why is he here at the casino?
In his previous life, Zhao Yu wasn't particularly interested in gambling, because he was a debt collector. He had seen too many tragic scenes of families being ruined because of gambling.
So, from the bottom of his heart, he not only didn't like it, but he was also very resistant to it.
Because he had been in contact with it too much, he also understood a truth. There was no one who really relied on gambling to become rich! Even if there was, most of them didn't know how to stop, so they would fall into it sooner or later.
As the saying goes, nine out of ten gambles lose. The one who really made the money was not the gambler, but the casino owner!
Just like the boxing match that he had played with Miao Kun before, the one who placed the bet was never the one who set the game!
But …
Although he wasn't interested in gambling, Zhao Yu still sat in front of the gambling table.
Zhao Yu didn't know why, but when he saw the old man's arrogant look, he felt particularly unhappy. So, he sat in front of the gambling table, as if he wanted to suppress the old man's arrogance!
