The next morning, at the cruise ship's restaurant.
"Well, you look much better!" Zhao Yu said to Miao Ying at the table. "It seems that yesterday's medicine really worked. I thought I would need an infusion today!"
"I told you," Miao Ying said. "It's just a cold. I'll be fine."
The two of them were in the cruise ship's first-class restaurant. The food in the restaurant was obviously better than in ordinary restaurants. There were all kinds of fruits, pastries, bread, steaks, and noodles made by the chef himself.
Because he was worried about Miao Ying's condition, Zhao Yu only ordered a bowl of noodles and some fruits for her.
"Detective, this time, I'm following you as an intern," Miao Ying said modestly. "Do you have any orders?"
"What order?" Zhao Yu said. "I only have one request, and that is to rest and recuperate!"
"I told you, it's fine!" Miao Ying said. "You know me. How about this? Today, I'll look at the videos on the cruise ship.
"As for you, go and solve your perfect murder case!"
"Hey?" Zhao Yu stared with his eyes wide open. "We're thinking of the same thing! This is really telepathic!"
"Exactly!" Miao Ying corrected him, then said, "But, I have to remind you that you have to be aware of our main task at all times!
Once we find clues about Xi Wei's treasure, we can't investigate your case anymore … "
"Understood! You're following me as an intern. Do I need you to tell me that? " Zhao Yu said confidently. "Don't worry, I won't neglect our important task because of the case!"
"Speaking of the case," Miao Ying said. "You have to remember your identity! You can't investigate the case like you used to. Don't forget that you don't have the authority! "
"Don't worry," Zhao Yu said with a smile. "I'm already the leader of the special investigation group, so I won't mess around like I used to! Don't worry, I've already thought of a plan! "
"See, tell me the truth!" Miao Ying's eyes lit up. "Yesterday, I knew that you had already thought of a way! Come on, tell me, how do you plan to do it without violating the disciplinary laws? "
"Hahaha …" Zhao Yu narrowed his eyes. "You've already seen through me! Well, "he said, looking around." If that's the case, I'll tell you, and you can give me some advice … "
Hearing this, Miao Ying quickly put down her bowl and chopsticks and listened attentively.
Unexpectedly, just as he put down the bowl and chopsticks, a few people suddenly rushed over from the entrance of the restaurant.
"Mr. Zhao, Mr. Zhao …" One of the middle-aged men went straight to Zhao Yu's table and said in a hurry, "Thank God, I finally found you!"
"Mm …" Zhao Yu recognized the man. He was the general manager of the cruise ship who had accompanied Zhu Yundi the day before.
Last night, Zhao Yu had looked up his information and found out that his name was Qi Jianhua. He was a veteran of the cruise ship and had been working on the ship for nearly six years.
Following behind Qi Jianhua was a foreigner with a tall nose. The foreigner was even wearing a crew uniform.
There were also the clothes of two stewards, and of a sailor's suit.
"You?" Seeing Qi Jianhua and the others, Zhao Yu was curious. "What's wrong?"
"Um … Mr. Zhao …" Qi Jianhua lowered his head and whispered, "This is not a good place to talk. We need your help! Let's … Let's go outside and talk! "
"This …" From Qi Jianhua's hurried words, Zhao Yu could tell that something was wrong. It seemed that something big had happened on the cruise ship.
"Okay!" Zhao Yu stood up and pointed to Miao Ying. "This lady is my assistant. We'll be together!"
"Oh, okay …" Qi Jianhua gestured and immediately took Zhao Yu and Miao Ying out of the restaurant.
"Um …" As they walked in a hurry, Qi Jianhua pointed to the foreigner and introduced him to Zhao Yu. "This is the captain of the Uranus, Bi Guosheng. He has an Italian name, but I can't remember it!"
"Hello!" The foreigner said to Zhao Yu in fluent Chinese. "I'm sorry to have caused you trouble!"
"Oh …" Zhao Yu looked at the foreigner and remembered that the cruise ship was built by an Italian shipyard, so the cruise ship's navigation was done by them.
Soon, they passed through the corridor and came to a place that looked like a surveillance room.
There were two security guards in the surveillance room, who were eating hamburgers. When they saw the general manager of the cruise ship and the captain enter the surveillance room together, they were shocked.
As Qi Jianhua waved his hand, the two security guards quickly left.
"Mr. Zhao, I know that you are a famous detective!" At this time, Qi Jianhua finally got to the point. "Forgive me for calling you here so early in the morning, but this is a very serious matter. I'm afraid that only you can help us get through this!"
"Tell me," Zhao Yu said calmly. "What happened?"
"You … Take a look at this first …" While speaking, a crew member turned on a laptop and played a video. Qi Jianhua then explained, "This is a picture taken by a surveillance camera on the right side of the cruise ship. It's an infrared camera, so it can capture things even in the dark … That's right side of the ship.
Look … Last night, at three o 'clock in the morning, someone fell into the sea … "
"Ah?!"
"What?!"
Zhao Yu and Miao Ying were shocked at the same time.
"Someone fell into the sea?" Miao Ying asked. "Then why didn't you contact the rescue team?"
"Yes, we did," Bi Guosheng said. "We contacted the coastal rescue team, the rescue center, and all the nearby ships. Now, they are searching the area.
"We've also sent more than ten speedboats, but … they've been in the water for so long, and considering the temperature of the water, I'm afraid … sigh …"
"Then …" Zhao Yu quickly asked, "Did you find out who fell into the sea?"
"It's … It's …" Qi Jianhua said with difficulty. "The owner of the cruise ship, Ms. Zhu Yundi!"
"What?!" Zhao Yu's eyes widened in disbelief. "Are you kidding? How … How could it be her? "
"Um … Actually …" Qi Jianhua said awkwardly. "Actually, we didn't see the video first. After all, it was late at night, so the surveillance personnel couldn't see it at all.
"Actually, this is what happened," Qi Jianhua said. "Because there was a business meeting with the American side, Zhu Yundi's secretary woke her up at seven o 'clock this morning."
"But, the secretary found that Ms. Zhu Yundi's door was open, and the room was in a mess. The table was crooked, the documents were scattered all over the floor, and the window was open!"
"Then, the secretary looked around the room and called Zhu Yundi, but she couldn't get through to her."
"So, she came to me and asked for help. After I saw the scene, I remembered the camera on the side of the ship. When we checked the footage, we found the scene of the person falling into the sea!"
Zhao Yu said. "Although it wasn't very clear, you saw the dress last night. It must be Ms. Zhu Yundi's …"
"We have sealed off the scene," Qi Jianhua said. "In order to avoid causing a commotion, we haven't informed anyone yet!
"Mr. Zhao, we don't have official police officers on the cruise ship, so we hope that you can step forward and help us take charge of the situation!"
"Yeah," Bi Guosheng said. "The room is in a mess, and the windows are open. This must be a murder!
"If Ms. Zhu is really dead, I hope that you can help us catch the murderer … Hey … Hey … Hey … Hey …"
Before Bi Guosheng could finish his words, he saw Miao Ying pull Zhao Yu's arm and drag him out of the room.
