Volume 1 Beginning of Summer Chapter 41: Encounter

I went through security check and queued up to get my room card. After boarding the cruise ship, I linked my room card and credit card with the help of the staff and purchased a full-trip wifi package. After completing the miscellaneous formalities, the cruise ship set sail.
Jiang You and Tang Butian's room was on the tenth floor, and the checked suitcases were placed at the door of the room.
"We're going to the French restaurant for lunch in ten minutes? It's said that the executive chef of that restaurant is the chef of a Michelin three-star restaurant," Jiang You looked at Tang Butian's expression and added, "It's a paid restaurant and it's the first day, so I guess there won't be many people."
"good."
"Then I'll go in."
He walked into the room with his suitcase, went to the bathroom first, and then walked to the balcony. The balcony faced the stern, and the entire sea spread out in front of him.
The lock of the suitcase opened, the zipper slid down more than ten centimeters, a slender leg stretched out, and the spider crawled out.
The water at Tangjiang Port is not very blue, but the sunshine is very good today, and there are traces of golden lines in the water.
"It's much more comfortable to feel the sea breeze than to stay at home, right?" Jiang You leaned on the railing and looked down. "Let's go out for walks more often in the future. Maybe your autism will be cured."
"You're not autistic? Then why don't you say something to me? "
Jiang You turned around and said, "The iPad has connected to the wifi for you, you can play by yourself."
When he walked out of the room, Tang Butian also happened to push the door and walk out.
The French restaurant is in the atrium.
When we arrived, just as Jiang You said, there was no one in the restaurant.
They chose a seat by the window.
The waiter came over with a smile, asked about the taste, introduced the characteristics, and recommended dishes. With professional and enthusiastic service, Jiang You and Tang Butian quickly ordered their meals.
"During the security check, we scanned all the passengers on the ship, and a total of 22 women were found to have spiritual power fluctuations from their tattoos. The oldest of them was 24 years old, and the youngest was only 16 years old. The average age was about 21.5 years old."
“You are so young.”
"Ma Yi and Lang Xing also recognized four other members of the Coconut Society."
"No fluctuations?"
The waiter brought the appetizer bread.
"No. They are in a dormant state and cannot be detected. So, there may be many that have been missed."
Jiang You took a bite of the rye, grape and walnut bread. It was soft and flexible, with a slight sweetness. "Very good. Would you like to try it?"
Tang Butian picked up a piece of bread, tore off a piece and put it into his mouth, chewed it a few times and swallowed it.
"What other information?"
"David Brown, the heir to the American Maxon Film Company, is on the cruise ship, staying in the presidential suite on the 12th floor."
"Have you identified him as the suspect?" Jiang You asked.
The appetizer was French-style pan-fried foie gras with cherries.
"Maxon Films pursued awards for art films, but has repeatedly failed in recent years and is on the verge of bankruptcy."
"But in China, there are still people who admire this identity," Jiang You took out his phone and took a photo of the foie gras. "Anyway, I only like commercial popcorn blockbusters. The more special effects, the better."
"Mera, the new actress promoted by McKesson, had a tattoo on her waist that was once photographed by paparazzi. It was the symbol of an ancient European sect. The five-pointed star and one-eye was one of the simplified symbols."
"Those demons in Europe are so rampant... No wonder they are so cautious. They probably can't survive in their own country. They think there are too many Chinese people. No wonder they can only be in a niche circle and can't make it ..." Jiang You cut off a piece of foie gras, "It's very tender and tastes like fat. So what do you need me to do?"
"They will act tonight. You will see fluctuations in spiritual power."
"Tonight?" Jiang You was a little surprised. "Shouldn't we wait until the cruise ship reaches the high seas before we act recklessly? I'm also planning to go to the casino and play a few games by then."
"The moon is full tonight."
"That organization probably doesn't know about this operation. This Maxson company is really going to go bankrupt. If you follow the clues, you will make a great contribution."
As they were talking, a white man in a black suit walked into the restaurant with a woman in a gray dress. After taking a look at the layout of the restaurant, they sat down not far from Jiang You and Tang Butian.
Jiang You asked in a low voice: "Is it him?"
Tang Butian nodded, "The woman is his secretary, Liu Jiamin, English name Dana. Ma Yi said he had seen her."
The waiter brought the main course of seared beef tenderloin.
While they were eating, they kept an eye on what was happening over there with David.
David and Liu Jiamin were talking in English, and their voices came to their ears intermittently.
"Can you understand?" Tang Butian asked.
"Me? The last time I opened an English book was about six years ago, when I was preparing for the Level 6 exam. You don't understand?" Jiang You was a little surprised.
“I’ve been on the mountain.”
"Then what about your college level four and six?"
"Copy the one next to it. I have good eyesight."
Jiang You pushed his glasses and said, "My eyesight is not good, but I can see a lot."
At the table not far away, Liu Jiamin looked a little hesitant, "David, have you submitted this operation for review ?"
David took a sip of his aperitif. "Dana, if the company doesn't win anything at the Locarno International Film Festival in July, the company will be acquired and we will all be abandoned by the organization."
Liu Jiamin looked down at the wine glass.
After the dessert of lava chocolate cake was served, Jiang You picked out a few photos from the ones he had taken and posted them on his Moments, with the caption: The first day of the cruise trip, recording my first Michelin restaurant experience in life.
Then he put down his phone: "So you have free time in the afternoon? Or should we have dinner together?"
"what you up to?"
"Take a nap first, then have afternoon tea and watch some shows. After that, go to the bar for a drink and some midnight snacks. The restaurants here are open 24 hours a day. I have my phone with me anyway, so you can contact me on WeChat if you have any questions."
"With a law enforcement recorder and a spiritual power recorder."
"Well, I'll carry a small bag," Jiang You finished the last bite of chocolate cake.
When they left the restaurant, they saw David putting his hand on the back of Liu Jiana's hand and looking at her affectionately.
After returning to his room and taking a nap, Jiang You saw a compressed package sent to him by Tang Butian on WeChat. When he opened it, it contained photos and information of 26 women.
Switching to his Moments, he received many likes and comments. He replied to the comments and chatted in a few groups. Then he walked out of the room and went to the Horizon Restaurant on the fifth floor.
He heard laughter and conversation from behind, and when he turned around, he saw five or six women walking together towards the restaurant.
Meatballs are in it.
The others are also included in the information provided by Tang Butian.
Bunzi tied her hair into two ponytails and wore a pink and white dress, looking energetic and cute.
He noticed that she still had a pair of small bells tied around her wrists.
Wan Zi also recognized him. She greeted him with some surprise, "Why are you here?"
"On vacation."
"one person?"
"No, there is another friend."
"Girlfriend?" Maru asked with interest.
“Leadership, leadership.”
"You are married?" Maru was even more surprised.
"He is really a leader, a leader at work."
"Oh." Maru said meaningfully, and pointed inside the restaurant, "Would you like to have afternoon tea with us?"
"I can't butt in on your girls' chat. Let's do it another time. Don't refuse then."
Wan Zi said with a smile, "How could that be? I'll wait for your WeChat."
