Chapter 10 Accusations

At this moment, Grandpa Wang and Hu Si were tying the bedsheets together to make a rope. The others climbed onto the boat using the makeshift ladder, one by one.

The tide had already started to rise, and the red waves under the setting sun slowly swallowed the black reefs that hadn't yet dried.

Bai Ma Shan helped each person as they reached the edge of the boat, pulling them inside. He had completely become the backbone of the group. It was he who had seen the seashells on the reef from the boat, and he who had decided to risk going down to collect seafood.

Everyone was willing to follow him down there, hoping for more food and to survive. Now, seeing such a large harvest, joy shone on everyone's faces. This was probably the happiest everyone had been since the accident. Even if there wasn't much meat in the shellfish after shelling them, every little bit counted; at least they wouldn't have to go hungry tonight.

Seeing that Anna had woken up, everyone was surprised and surrounded her, asking her what had happened.

"I just went to the bathroom and heard a strange noise. I tried to see what was going on through the escape passage in the cabin, but I didn't expect..."

Seeing her pause, Teacher Lin, who had been listening for a while, quickly urged, "Didn't expect what?"

"Didn't expect to see Boss Lu lying on the ground, and Xiao Jia was stabbing him with a knife."

Hao Jie Ning and Teacher Lin gasped. Bai Ma Shan also turned to look.

Anna seemed to have pulled at the wound on her head, wincing in pain. She endured the pain and continued to accuse: "I was so scared at the time, I wanted to run, but she dragged me in too. You arrived just as she was about to attack me."

Anna's words made everyone hate and distrust Jia Wen Jun even more.

Naturally, Jia Wen Jun, in the dark cabin, also heard Anna's words. She was furious and anxious, unable to go up. She could only shout at them from below, "She's lying! Lu Mao Wang was stabbed by her! If you don't believe me, you can wait for Lu Mao Wang to wake up and ask him yourself. Anna not only stabbed Lu Mao Wang, but also hides and uses drugs here. I saw it all with my own eyes. You can come down and see for yourselves."

Jia Wen Jun was emotional, her voice a bit hysterical. She didn't expect Anna to be able to play the victim in broad daylight. This shameless behavior once again gave her a new understanding of human nature.

Anna, on the other hand, looked like a victim. Coupled with the fact that she was haggard and aged after being injured, she looked all the more weak and helpless.

The others on the boat had already decided that Jia Wen Jun was not a good person, so naturally they all sided with Anna.

Seeing Jia Wen Jun's intense reaction below, Bai Ma Shan frowned slightly. Anna said that she saw Lu Mao Wang lying there when she went in. She wasn't lying about that, because he was the one who knocked Lu Mao Wang out.

But who stabbed Lu Mao Wang twice? Jia Wen Jun and Anna both said that the other did it. It seemed that the answer would only be known when Lu Mao Wang woke up.

After the women had all gone up, Grandpa Wang and Hu Si patted the tied-up packages from below, signaling for the people above to pull up the shellfish.

Bai Ma Shan led a group of women and teenagers, and everyone was playing tug-of-war, trying to pull up a large pile of things.

But this was a labor-intensive task, and everyone had just spent a lot of energy, so they couldn't pull it up at all.

Grandpa Wang had no choice but to go up first, leaving Hu Si behind to hold the line.

At this time, Jia Wen Jun, who was in the dark cabin, heard Anna constantly spreading rumors above. She didn't want everyone to be deceived by Anna's lies, so she wanted to go out and get justice for herself.

She couldn't climb out of the hole, but suddenly a thought flashed in her mind. Now that the water had receded, she could go out through the place where Anna came in!

Thinking this way, she led Da Huang and groped towards the secret passage.

When Grandpa Wang climbed up, he saw everyone cursing Jia Wen Jun.

Grandpa Wang looked at the awakened Anna, and Anna told him the story again.

Grandpa Wang sighed. Bai Ma Shan had already told him what Lu Mao Wang had done to Jia Wen Jun in the dark cabin. He didn't feel any sympathy for Lu Mao Wang being stabbed. As for Anna, she was also unlucky. This Jia Wen Jun was not a good person. He only hoped to be rescued soon and stay far away from these rotten people and rotten things.

After Hu Si came up as well, everyone helped to pull the things up. With more people, there was more strength. A large bag of shellfish was finally brought onto the boat, and everyone could finally take a breather.

Just as everyone was slumped on the deck, Bai Ma Shan suddenly walked towards the cabin. He seemed to have faintly heard some sounds just now. After getting closer, he could hear clearly that Lu Mao Wang had woken up.

Lu Mao Wang, whose bleeding had stopped, looked weak. Perhaps because he was in good physical condition, the bleeding had stopped quickly. Although he had been stabbed twice, he was still in good spirits after waking up.

Hearing that Lu Mao Wang had woken up, everyone except Grandpa Wang and Teacher Lin, who couldn't stand the smell of blood, walked into the cabin.

Grandpa Wang didn't go. Instead, he buried himself in untying the ropes of the seafood.

Teacher Lin was staring at him from the side. As soon as she turned her head, she suddenly panicked, covering her wide-open mouth with one hand and constantly patting Grandpa Wang's back with the other.

Grandpa Wang was working hard to tie the rope. A series of "Jianglong Eighteen Palms" slapped on his back. He impatiently pushed the package onto the deck, scattering a full bag of shellfish all over the place: "What are you doing? You're not helping, you're just making trouble!"

Teacher Lin pointed behind Grandpa Wang: "The mur, the murderer is out!"

When Grandpa Wang heard this, he realized it was Jia Wen Jun and was very surprised. The hole was so high, how could she climb out?

He turned his head and saw Jia Wen Jun walking over from the direction of the toilet, holding a dog leash in her hand.

Jia Wen Jun's hair was disheveled, and her slender and tall figure looked a little weak. Having not replenished with fresh water for a long time, her lips were cracked and white, and her eye bags were a little dark.

The joy of picking shells disappeared instantly from Grandpa Wang and Teacher Lin's faces when they saw Jia Wen Jun standing on the splint with the dog.

Because they were so shocked, the two forgot to shout and just watched Jia Wen Jun walk past them without saying a word. Only the dog sniffed at the pile of shellfish.

At this time, the others were surrounding Lu Mao Wang, asking him what happened last night.

Grandpa Wang asked him: "Xiao Lu, tell everyone the truth, who stabbed you last night?"

Lili fed Lu Mao Wang some water, but he accidentally choked on it. When he coughed, he pulled at his wound. After a while, he slowly opened his mouth and said, "It was... Jia Wen Jun."

As soon as he finished speaking, a woman's angry voice was heard outside the door: "Hu Si, you're talking nonsense! It was clearly Anna who stabbed you! If I hadn't helped you in time, you wouldn't be alive to slander me now!"

Jia Wen Jun, who had just arrived at the door and heard these words, couldn't believe her ears. Lu Mao Wang, the person who had been stabbed, was also slandering her?

What was wrong with this world? Was he stabbed so stupid that he forgot who stabbed him?
