Chapter 155 Dinner
Chapter 155 Dinner
The silk thread behind the little fat man's head seemed to have its own stretching properties. They walked all the way back, but the silk thread did not hang on the ground.
Julian followed the silk thread and found that the end of the thread turned out to be the 'human face' that he thought was just a pattern.
"Look... did you find it?" the little fat man stammered.
"Hmm." Julian glanced at him and asked politely, "Would you like to take a look yourself?"
"No... still not." The little fat man almost cried, he didn't want to know why there was a thread extending out of his brain.
Julian watched for a while, but couldn't figure out what the principle of this thread was.He glanced at Owen, who also shook his head, obviously not exposed to such a situation.
"I, can I still be saved?" The little fat man's tone was filled with tears, and he couldn't help crying, looking extremely pitiful.
"Don't worry, since you haven't died yet, you probably won't die right away." Julian didn't completely comfort him.With the strength of the little fat man, if the evil spirits on this evil spirit ship wanted to kill him, he could do it as soon as he got on the boat. Since he didn't move, it must be useful to save his life.
"What did you do in the room?" Julian looked at the little fat man.
He looked at it just now, and neither he nor Owen had this kind of thing on them. Since there were human-faced spiders in both rooms, and he and Owen were not connected with silk threads, it must be something the little fat man did.
"No...it's nothing?" The little fat man said with a blank face, crying, "I was so scared to death after getting on the boat, how could I dare to do anything, so I just sat down by the table and didn't dare to move my place. .”
Julian glanced at the chair, very good, it is one of the eight legs of the human-faced spider, that is to say, the reason why this silk thread is excited is probably because the little fat man came into contact with the human-faced spider?
And he and Owen didn't touch anything because they had already seen through the disguise in the room?
Just imagine, if an ordinary person boards a ship, even if he knows it is a cursed ship, he may not be able to see through the camouflage on it. After being brought into the room by the butler, there is a high chance that he will come into contact with the various decorations in the room .
Thinking about it this way, it's no wonder the housekeeper insisted on letting them enter the room. Presumably, he hoped to connect the spider silk to their bodies.If I guessed correctly, this spider thread must have a lot to do with the subsequent development.
"Do you want to go back to your room?" Owen asked.
"Forget it." Julian shook his head, so what?You can't take the initiative to touch those 'furnitures' in order to verify whether your guess is worth it.
"Jingle Bell--"
Suddenly, Julian heard a crisp ringing. Looking back, he found a bell hanging from the waist of the butler with sharp teeth. At this time, the bell was shaking and making a pleasant sound.
The sharp-toothed butler bowed and saluted: "Several, the dinner party is about to begin, please move to the restaurant."
"Is everyone going or just the three of us?" Julian asked immediately.
The sharp-toothed steward paused, and replied meaningfully: "Everyone on board who has the right of inheritance must attend this dinner."
Julian raised his eyebrows: "Do dead people have inheritance rights?"
Butler Sharp Tooth shook his head: "Of course not, only living people have the right to inherit."
Julian asked again: "Then do you have the right to inherit?"
The butler with sharp teeth gave him a deep look: "The guest is joking, I am just a servant, without the blood of the family, how can I have the right to inherit."
"What about me? Do I have the right to inherit?" Owen suddenly asked.
The sharp-toothed steward was silent for a while, his lips twitched, as if he was communicating with someone, and then he replied: "Mr. Stanley is a descendant of the master's blood, of course he has the right to inherit."
Owen was not very satisfied with the answer of the sharp-toothed butler, but he didn't say much, but Julian thought the butler's answer was very interesting. Mr. Stanley has the right to inherit, so the two of them will replace Stanley and his wife on the ship. Do you have any inheritance rights?
From what Stanley said, it is not difficult to know that as long as someone replaces the two of them, they can no longer bear the curse. By analogy, the two of them should have the right to inherit.
But from another point of view, only descendants who have inherited the blood have the right to inherit, so the two of them who replaced him have no right to inherit.
So the question is, what does this ship...or some evil spirit hidden on the ship want?
In just a short while, the bell on the butler's waist vibrated more violently.
The originally crisp sound was a bit harsh because of the rapid shaking, butler Sharp Tooth's face changed: "Please take a few steps, the master doesn't like others to be late."
"Master?" Julian repeated these two words playfully. He could see that the sharp-toothed butler was very afraid of the master he spoke of. What kind of existence could an evil spirit be afraid of?If he guessed correctly, it should be the mastermind behind the scenes.
The three of them followed the sharp-toothed butler to the 'restaurant' he called. Except for the little fat man who still had a desperate expression of crying and dying, Owen and Julian were very calm.
The sharp-toothed butler led the way, seeing the calm faces of the two from time to time, and didn't know what they were thinking.
"What's your name?" Julian asked seemingly casually on the way to the restaurant.
The sharp-toothed butler paused slightly, and looked at him very delicately: "You can call me Isaac."
"Okay, Isaac, since there is still some distance to the restaurant, would you mind giving us a brief introduction to the situation in the restaurant?" Julian said with a smile as he climbed up quite skillfully.
Isaac looked at the 'Mrs. Laura' who was being hugged by the princess without a word, and didn't know what to say for a while.
The little fat man had an adoring expression on his face, and his eyes were full of little stars.
It's amazing... The golden thigh I hugged is really amazing!
Oh my god, he saw this butler with his own eyes revealing his sharp teeth, which is obviously not something that humans can have, and he must be very powerful to be able to get so close to an inhuman horror monster!There is nothing wrong with hugging your thighs!
The little fat man felt that his head didn't hurt anymore, his legs weren't weak anymore, he even held back the tears he wanted to shed, and even had the illusion that he could fight these terrifying monsters for [-] rounds...
"Huh? Why don't you talk?" Probably because he was used to being hugged, Julian didn't realize why the other party showed that indescribable expression at all, thinking that there was something that needed to be kept secret.
"It's nothing..." Isaac turned his face away, and said in a rough voice: "The restaurant where the dinner party is held is below the deck. I know that there will be a party after the dinner, and the master will choose the successor of the Patriarch at the party..." Speaking of this, he suddenly suppressed his voice: "If you don't want to die, don't covet it. It should be your place."
He said the last sentence in a very low voice, and he couldn't hear it at a little distance. If it weren't for Julian's excellent hearing, he might not have heard what he was saying, and after Isaac finished speaking, he returned to his expressionless face Their eyes were full of malice, as if what they said just now was their illusion.
Julian didn't ask, he just felt that Isaac was a bit strange, but he didn't expect the other party to say such a thing.
No matter what the curse on this ship is, what is the purpose of the man behind the scenes, this Isaac can be said to have risked his life—well, maybe he is already dead, and that is also a risk The danger of being lost.
"Here we are." Just as Julian was thinking about 'a place that doesn't belong to him', Isaac suddenly stopped and stretched out his hand to open the two doors.
After the door was pushed open, the brightly lit room inside was revealed. The room was surprisingly large. There was a long dining table inside. The two sides of the dining table were almost full of people. Men and women laughed together. When they heard someone coming in, they agreed looked over.
Being stared at by dozens of pairs of eyes at the same time, and the person who was laughing and feasting just now suddenly became expressionless, this feeling is really scalp-numbing.
Just now, the little fat man felt that he was so courageous that he would dare to fight anyone who came, but now he was timid again, and hid behind Owen tremblingly...
It's also thanks to Owen being tall enough, otherwise it would be quite difficult to completely block him.
"Sorry, are we late?" People with confidence in their hearts would not panic. Although Julian was held in Owen's arms, he still said to those people in a calm and generous manner.
"Of course not, come here quickly..." A slightly fat middle-aged woman rolled her eyes, became enthusiastic all of a sudden, and even stood up to greet Owen and the others.
The words of the middle-aged woman were like a switch, and the atmosphere of the scene instantly changed from eerie silence to lively hustle and bustle.
Everyone ate, drank, chatted and laughed, as if the weird scene just now had never happened before, the middle-aged woman pulled them to the empty seats beside her, and greeted them politely, and the people around her also showed enthusiasm, They can even name Stanley and Laura, and know all the family trees on them.
No matter what the people around him hinted, Owen never put Julian down, and kept holding him tightly in his arms.
The middle-aged woman covered her mouth with a handkerchief and let out a chuckle, teasing that the relationship between the two of them is really good.
Julian smiled without saying a word, no matter what others said or laughed at, he wouldn't come out of Owen's arms.
As a severely disabled patient, isn't it a matter of course to be hugged by your own man?He can't insist on putting himself in danger for the sake of saving face, knowing that the other party has bad intentions and still insisting on following their wishes?That's not polite that's stupid!
In this way, everyone chatted and laughed and chatted about some irrelevant topics. Regardless of the fact that other people seemed to be having a good chat, Julian clearly felt that malicious eyes fell on him from time to time.
It seems that the three of them are very unpopular
Julian laughed to himself. He and Owen were both very restrained, and their performance at the dinner table could be called "immovable as a mountain". It was difficult for them to feel uncomfortable with outside gazes. With so many malicious people staring at him, I almost shrank under the chair.
ding ding ding-
At some point, a person sat in the vacant seat of the previous host, and he tapped the wine glass with a fork to indicate that the dinner party had begun——
