I Was Admitted To The Villain School Chapter 26.1
As soon as Lin Xinghe arrived at the VIP aisle, a steward came over to carefully carry her measly luggage, which consisted of just a backpack and a broom.
The steward’s last name was also Lin, and he sported a neat suit. Lin Xinghe was naturally happy to have someone help her with her luggage, even if that person would turn into a ligui after dark. Steward Lin also wanted to hold Xiao Xue Ji for Lin Xinghe, so Lin Xinghe did not refuse.
"She's very obedient and doesn't make fusses, and unlike ordinary cats, she likes to eat human food."
Steward Lin said, "Okay, I'll keep that in mind."
Lin Xinghe boarded the cruise ship under the guidance of Steward Lin.
Steward Lin warmly gave Lin Xinghe a tour, "This is our lobby, there are eight elevators, and suite guests have exclusive private elevators. We have a total of twelve restaurants—eight free restaurants and four VIP restaurants that all have 3 Michelin Stars…"
Lin Xinghe looked at this magnificent hall while listening. From her position, she could clearly see each floor when she raised her head. She counted them and asked, "There are eight floors in total on the cruise ship?"
"With the minus two floors, there are ten floors."
Lin Xinghe had been on several cruise ships. Generally speaking, based on the size of such a large cruise ship, they had fifteen floors or more, so that more guests could be onboard at one time. After all, most of the money a cruise made came from the tickets and tips.
After she entered the suite, she realized that the height of the suite was much higher than all the previous cruise suites she had lived in before. The cabins here were at least four meters high, and the furniture was all king-size.
When the petite Lin Xinghe was in the suite, to outsiders, she would look like a child.
The steward put down her luggage and said, "You can call me if you need anything. There is a button by the bed. I will do my best to keep you satisfied during this trip."
When he was about to put down Xiao Xue Ji, Lin Xinghe smiled at him and said, "Before the others board the ship, can you give me an in-depth tour of the boat? My cat really likes you holding her..."
"It’s my pleasure."
When Lin Xinghe left the suite, she discovered that the suite next door was inhabited by the fantasy department boss.
He also noticed Lin Xinghe, glanced at her lightly, and closed the door.
When Lin Xinghe asked the tour guide before, the tour guide said that all the suite tickets were sold out, so he must have used some other method to obtain a ticket.
Lin Xinghe glanced at the room number of the fantasy boss and left with Steward Lin.
Steward Lin showed her around every floor of the cruise.
The height of each floor of this cruise ship was the same as that of the suite, and all the furniture was taller and wider than usual human-sized furniture.
Lin Xinghe observed silently at first and asked some questions later.
Steward Lin answered every question in great detail.
There were a total of 500 passengers and 200 staff on the cruise.
When the sun went down, there would be 200 staff-turned-ligui and 400 real passengers.
Ligui were ghosts, which meant they were all human during their lifetime.
Therefore, it was possible that the passengers would turn into ligui as well after getting massacred. That amounted to a total of 600 ligui against 100 students, and they still weren’t sure exactly what powers the ligui had.
After Lin Xinghe visited each floor, more than half of the passengers had finished boarding. Many students were running around the boat in search of clues, and some people were even asking the staff about alpine rimeroses.
When Lin Xinghe heard the question, she paused slightly and listened to the reply: "Sorry, there are no roses on the cruise, but we can provide other flowers, such as lilies, tulips, baby’s breath, sunflowers, and more."
Lin Xinghe asked Steward Lin, "Why aren’t there roses on the cruise?"
Steward Lin replied, "The owner of the cruise doesn't like roses."
"Then why is the ship called The Alpine Rimerose?"
"I don't know, maybe it has a different meaning to our boss."
"Is there any place you want to visit?" Steward Lin asked again.
Lin Xinghe said, "I want to go to the exhibition hall on the sixth floor again. I am quite interested in the paintings."
Steward Lin took Lin Xinghe there again.
Lin Xinghe paid close attention to his expressions.
Wang Ke told her that the safe area on the cruise ship was behind an abstract painting called "Blood,” and there was a hidden room behind it. If there was even a bit of light or noise emitted from the room, the people hiding in it would be discovered.
Wang Ke also said that one of the staff told him how to escape the curse of the cruise ship while he disembarked.
There were two hints in this information.
First, when the staff members changed from human to ligui and back again, they retained their memories.
The staff must also have known the secret hiding spot, or else Wang Ke would not have known that there were conditions for the secret room. This must mean someone made sound or light and was discovered.
