Everyone else is a trainer, but you are a swordsman?
Chapter 57 Exploration
The Aegisblade didn't respond to him, but instead took flight and continued circling the room.
Suddenly, it seemed to have determined something and found its target, controlling its shadow to fly towards the bed. Then, the Shield Sword Monster actually crawled into the crack of the bed.
Feng followed its shadow and saw the Shield Blade Monster come to the inside of the bed through the shadow. However, the structure inside was not solid or empty as Feng imagined.
There is a hidden world under the bed. A cylindrical magnet exuding a sense of technology stands quietly in a small hollow area inside the bed. The bottom of the magnet is connected to the ground, and it is unknown where it leads to. There are also some unnamed devices connected around it.
It turns out that Aegisblade felt the weak attraction of the magnet, which is why it was so eager to get into the bed. After all, it is a steel-attribute Pokémon and has a keen sense of magnetism at close range.
"This magnet..."
Feng stared at the mysterious magnet, his brows furrowed, his heart filled with curiosity.
With the discovery of magnets, the situation seemed to change again.
Why is there a magnet here? Is this magnet related to the death of Straw Hat Man? Shouldn't every room have one?
All kinds of questions came to his mind, but Feng didn't know the details of this thing, nor did he dare to touch or destroy it easily. For a moment, he was helpless.
The only useful clue is that regardless of whether the murder of the Straw Hat Man is related to the magnet, it is difficult for tourists to build the magnet so secretly under the bed, and it is very likely that the official of Jinlanglun is involved.
This can be verified by finding more rooms. After all, this kind of thing can't escape.
Since there is no other solution and no other discoveries, Feng plans to retreat temporarily and then proceed slowly.
But when he left, he couldn't help but look back at the blood-stained bed, praying in his heart that he would never encounter such inexplicable horror and danger again.
So who should this world pray to? Arceus?
After returning to his room, Feng immediately got under the bed to check and found that there was no strange magnet under his bed. Then he went to every corner, including the cabinets and TV, to make sure that there was no problem in the entire room.
I didn’t find any magnets in my room, but I don’t know what other tourists’ rooms look like, so I might as well find some time to explore them.
"Hmm... let's set it for noon for now. We can sneak in after the tourists have gone to eat."
Knowing that danger was nearby, Feng no longer wanted to stay in the room and went straight to the monthly training room.
He locked the door of the training room, released the fast-sleeping Gyarados, took out the sleeping bag he often used in the wild from his space bracelet, crawled into it and fell asleep.
……
At noon, Feng returned to his sea view room and planned to search the nearby area to see if there were any rooms with magnets hidden under the beds.
The first place he went to was Uncle Straw Hat's room, intending to see if there were any clues that he had missed yesterday.
However, to his surprise, after entering the room, he found that it was a "new house".
The bloodstains on the bed, the clothes and bags on the table had all disappeared, replaced by a neatly folded clean bed, and the smell of blood had turned into a pungent smell of disinfectant.
The horrific scene last night seemed to be just an illusion. For a moment, Feng even thought it was a nightmare he had while sleeping in the training room. But he soon woke up. Although the room looked brand new, the strange magnet under the bed was telling the truth.
"Good thing I went there last night, otherwise all the soup would be gone."
After Feng found that all traces of this room had been cleared, he did not stay there any longer. He went into the shadow and went to another room, intending to explore the 50 nearby rooms first.
It was daytime now, and although there were few people in the cabin on the 7th floor, he was still very careful.
When going out or coming in, always be alert and pay attention to the movements inside and outside the door, and run away immediately if the situation is not right.
There is basically no one in the house now. Even if it is not lunch time, most people will choose to play on the boat instead of staying in a cramped little house.
Only a few people were still in the room doing various things, and when Feng entered, the people inside did not notice him.
But there are exceptions. When Feng entered one of the sea view rooms, he was almost discovered.
There was a young man sitting on the bed in the room feeding his big wolfhound. Feng just sneaked in through the crack of the door when he suddenly heard a fierce dog barking. It seemed that the watchdog knew that a stranger was coming and was issuing a warning.
"Wang! Wang!"
The elite wolfhound keenly smelled other scents in the house, and barked reflexively, staring at the direction of Feng at the door.
"Dahei, what's wrong?"
The young man looked at the big wolfhound in confusion, then looked at the empty door. Then he took the big wolfhound around and opened the door to look around, but still found nothing.
Feng had already evacuated in time when the big wolfhound started barking, and stayed away from the room.
"Did someone pass by outside just now? Don't be too sensitive, Dahei." The boy smiled and touched the furry head of the big wolfhound, then continued to feed it.
……
After visiting all 50 rooms, Feng counted and found that magnets existed in 7 rooms in total, and 4 of them were as clean as the Straw Hat Man's room.
Feng was certain that people had died in those houses and the traces had been cleaned up, because if no one lived there, there wouldn't be such a strong smell of disinfectant. Now it was basically certain that the death of the straw hat uncle was related to the magnet.
If we use the 7:50 ratio, then on a ship carrying thousands of passengers, at least several hundred people would have these magnets installed under their beds. It's unclear whether the wealthy people in the top suites and luxury rooms have been harmed.
The magnet under the bed and the cleaned-up room have basically confirmed that it was the ship's fault. Building the magnet and sending people to clean it up is a big deal, but the question now is:
Why did they do this? What was the magnet used for? And how did the ship convince the tourists to stop resisting?
Feng didn't hear any movement next to the Straw Hat Uncle, but logically speaking, using any skill in a small and quiet space would make quite a noise.
It’s not difficult to know the answer.
The most direct method at the moment is to wait until night and go to the remaining three rooms that have not been cleaned to wait. By then, most of the problems will be revealed.
