Doomsday: Starting from the Titanic

Chapter 59 Searching for Clues

Crossing the pontoon bridge, the sky was just beginning to lighten at noon.

The group gradually woke up on the deck. Yu Wenwen, clutching her missing front tooth, jumped up excitedly, "No... don't come any closer!"

"I don't want to die!" Under the blinding sunlight, Yu Wenwen gradually regained consciousness.

Hearing the roars of the zombies around her, Yu Wenwen clutched her chest and gradually calmed down.

"I...I'm not dead? Haha, I'm really not dead?" Yu Wenwen was so frightened last night that she fainted.

Hearing the unusual sounds from the deck, Fu Xi also came closer. Looking at Yu Wenwen, who had survived the ordeal, he smiled calmly:

"Of course you're not dead! Don't you even know whose ship you've boarded!"

Upon seeing Fu Xi, Yu Wenwen jogged over, hands on her hips, and said, "Fu Xi, I know you're strong, but don't get cocky yet. Tell me about this first."

"You looked so cool yesterday when you used it to defeat the Class A monster!"

Yu Wenwen pressed her body tightly against the close-in weapon system, feeling the gunpowder on it as if she were looking at some kind of treasure.

"This thing is called a close-in weapon system. It can fire hundreds of shells in a few seconds. It is a high-lethality weapon used exclusively by the military."

Upon hearing Fu Xi's introduction, Yu Wenwen almost jumped up with excitement.

"Wow, hundreds in a few seconds! Does that mean we won't be afraid of C-level monsters anymore?"

Before Yu Wenwen could speak again, a familiar female voice came from behind her.

"Dude, can't you have some ambition? What's a C-rank anomaly? With this, we rank A and below can do whatever we want!"

Upon seeing the person who arrived, Yu Wenwen immediately hugged her excitedly, "Second sister, hello there! I was so worried about you yesterday!"

Ru Hua picked her nose, smiled calmly, and said, "Little brother, nothing is more important than your and your sister's lives. What are you worried about?"

"Of course, it was really dangerous last night. Even an A-level supernatural entity came. If it weren't for Brother Fuxi, we would have died!" Ruhua said with a smile as she looked at Fuxi.

"Brother Fuxi, we're your people from now on. Following you is the best future we can have!" Sishui quickly chimed in.

Upon seeing this, Wang Fei burst out laughing.

"Hehe, Fuxi, you're really lucky..." The air was deathly silent. Before Wang Fei could continue laughing, he suddenly felt a chill down his spine.

"Huh? Isn't it sunny? Why is it so cold?" Wang Fei crossed his arms and stared in shock at the scene before him.

A figure as large as a mountain blocked his way, silencing all the sunlight, as if it were the end of the world.

"What...what do you want to do?" Wang Fei looked up and met Ru Hua's gaze.

"What do you think we're up to? What are you laughing at?" Si Shui walked over, her fingers delicately curled, and poked his chest with her sharp nails.

"I...I'm just saying the weather's nice today, is that not allowed?" To save face, Wang Fei simply made up a story.

"Hmph, you better be like that. Even though you're not exactly good-looking, we can still manage to discuss nightlife with you!"

"Hey hahaha, sis, don't scare him!" Wang Fei breathed a sigh of relief as he watched the two Ru Hua sisters waddle away.

"Damn it, those two ugly bastards look like that themselves, yet they say I'm ugly!" Wang Fei covered his pretty face, starting to doubt his own existence.

An awkward silence hung in the air, but thankfully, Li Xue walked over carrying six buckets of instant noodles.

"Everyone, dinner's ready!" Li Xue smiled and handed a bowl of instant noodles to Fu Xi. "Captain, you can have this!"

"Li Xue, do we not have much food left?" Fu Xi looked around and found that only her bowl had an egg.

"Captain, there's not much left. If we eat sparingly, it can last us a week!" Li Xue said truthfully.

"I'll take care of the food problem. How's it going with the arrangements for you? Any news?" Fuxi asked earnestly.

"The area around the Dufu Bridge is all mountains. The only way to travel is by water or rail. I even found some abandoned instant noodles on the railway tracks!"

Li Xue picked up her notebook, which was filled with clues she had found on the way last night.

"Instant noodles?" Fu Xi sneered, her eyes turning icy. "The clues along this route were most likely created by Qin Han. It seems he escaped by train..."

"Li Xue, keep a close eye on things. Tell me immediately if you find any information about him. He gave us a great gift; how can we not return it?"

……

After Li Xue left, Wang Fei, clutching his stomach and looking pitiful, approached her. "Fu Xi, is this instant noodle 100 units of blood essence?"

"I collected some blood essence yesterday. Could you sell me some? You wouldn't want me to leave without repaying the remaining twelve things, would you?" Wang Fei tentatively asked.

But how could Fuxi not know that the other party was just pretending to be pitiful?

Fu Xi smiled calmly, his mind still vividly recalling how Wang Fei had found a large amount of blood essence yesterday. "Of course, I can sell you food, but..."

"But what?" Wang Fei's eyes lit up.

"This is what it means to take from the people and use it for the people!" He had already figured it out in his mind; he could just keep collecting blood essence later.

"But the price will have to go up!" Fu Xi smiled wickedly; Wang Fei had clearly anticipated this.

"How much it goes up? I'll buy it all..." Wang Fei patted his chest and smiled smugly, but Fu Xi's next words almost made him furious.

"Ten thousand and thirty yuan of blood essence can be exchanged for a bag of instant noodles!"

"What? This is robbery! Wasn't it only a hundred before?" Wang Fei's face turned red with anger as he tried to reason with the unscrupulous merchant.

"I said one hundred, so it's one hundred; I said two hundred, so it's two hundred. Besides, this is my place! If you don't want to eat, you can leave!" Fu Xi waved her hand, her face indifferent.

"Hmph, I'm not buying it!" Wang Fei's face was gloomy, his mouth opened and closed several times, and finally he said this helplessly.

Little did they know that Fuxi had already walked quite a distance, clutching her stomach as she went, "Sigh, I'm not full. I'll go eat some more, but unfortunately there's not much food left..."

Upon seeing this, Wang Fei immediately became anxious, looking at the bloody semen and listening to his rumbling stomach.

In the end, reason prevailed over stubbornness, and he stepped forward to stop Fuxi.

"Hey, hey, don't go! I was just joking before. I'm buying 10,030 blood essence, right?"

Fu Xi stopped and looked at him with a half-smile. "Not bad, do you have one?"

"Of course there is..." Wang Fei said through gritted teeth.

When he took out his pocket to count the blood essence, he was shocked to find that none of the blood essence he had desperately picked up was left!

"Damn it, did this guy plant a camera in my pocket?" For some reason, this thought suddenly popped into Wang Fei's mind.

"How about we change it? There's not much food left!" Fu Xi added fuel to the fire.

"Change! Of course I'll change, but I have a small request: I want the braised beef flavor!" Wang Fei reluctantly handed the blood essence pouch to Fu Xi.

"Okay, I'll grant your wish!"

Soon a steaming bowl of braised beef noodles was placed in front of him.

"Eat!"

Wang Fei wolfed down his food, not caring whether it was properly soaked or not; he had been starving for days.

"Damn it, what kind of place is this? A captain with a mind like a demon, and perverted crew members..." Wang Fei clenched his fists and muttered as he watched Fu Xi's departing figure.

……

Time quickly passed and it became late at night.

Li Xue stood in the driver's seat, holding binoculars, looking at the scene before her with surprise and delight.

A few hundred meters away from the Titanic, a row of cars was parked, emitting black smoke.

It's obvious that it just stopped not long ago!

"Captain, we've found Qin Han and the others!" Li Xue exclaimed.

"Finally found you!" Fu Xi looked at this scene with murderous intent!

"Everyone assemble, prepare to move!"
