Chapter 465: Chapter 315: Unexpected Discovery in the Warehouse Chapter 465: Chapter 315: Unexpected Discovery in the Warehouse Grabbing the handle and giving it a twist, Chu Mingcheng didn’t know that the handle, corroded by years of seawater, was already jammed.
Chu Mingcheng felt the handle was loose and, with a gentle tug, pulled it off completely.
The lock’s core was dead, but the wooden door had softened.
Chu Mingcheng simply kicked the door in, creating a hole big enough to pass through.
He didn’t go in immediately but waited outside for a bit, waiting for the murky water to clear again and for anything that might be inside to swim out.
This thing, of course, wasn’t anything fantastical.
Chu Mingcheng was worried there might be some venomous marine life inside and that rashly entering could be troublesome, so he didn’t go in right away.
After a little while, he didn’t see anything swim out, so he slowly approached the doorway, shining his flashlight inside and surveying the entire room.
It was a completely enclosed small space, with a tatami mat and a wardrobe, not more than seven or eight square meters.
Such a space obviously wouldn’t harbor any creatures, so Chu Mingcheng swam in.
After swimming in, he found a small overturned bedside cabinet in a corner he hadn’t noticed before.
There were only two cabinets in the small room for storing things, so Chu Mingcheng first went over to the large cabinet and opened it to take a look.
A mass of blackness, like cuttlefish ink, burst out, and he stepped back speechless; inside were several clothes, the ink obviously being the dye that had bled from them.
Then, he opened other drawers in the cabinet, finding them either empty or filled with socks or underwear.
They had solidified; clearly, the captain hadn’t had time to tidy these up.
Then, he opened the dresser drawer, the top one held a manual razor, and the bottom one contained a pulp which must have been books.
The final item, a pair of slippers, was under the bed; the room had nothing of value, clearly, all the important stuff had been taken.
Looking gloomy, Chu Mingcheng left the small room and headed to the second layer below the cockpit.
The second layer was all rooms, seemingly the living quarters for the crew.
Chu Mingcheng wandered around the corridor first, discovering there were fourteen rooms on the second floor.
These definitely needed to be searched; what if there were some good finds?
Some rooms had windows, but he didn’t plan on entering through the windows from outside.
Approaching the door of the first room, it was a windowless room.
Chu Mingcheng grabbed the door lock and pulled gently, and as expected, the wooden door had already softened in the water.
He was strong enough to directly pull the decayed door lock out.
After pulling out the door lock, the wooden door automatically opened inward, and at that moment, a long figure suddenly appeared in his line of sight.
It was all white, lying on the ground, its torn clothes floating freely in the water.
Seeing the room’s occupant, even Chu Mingcheng, who was prepared, got goosebumps instantly.
But he remained calm, only his heart beating a little faster, but not truly frightened.
Yes, lying on the ground was a skeleton, someone who hadn’t escaped in time.
Chu Mingcheng remained silent for a moment before closing the door and picking up the door lock to firmly lock it.
Might as well search still; what’s the difference from tomb raiding at this point?
The person was already unlucky enough; let him be buried with his belongings from life.
Then, he proceeded to open the next door and continued exploring.
Honestly, as long as one is bold, exploring these sunken ships is much more interesting than playing escape room games.
Fourteen rooms took him nearly two hours to search.
The only room with a skeleton was the first one; he searched all the other rooms.
He didn’t find anything valuable, just two watches and a necklace.
Chu Mingcheng didn’t know much about watches, but the words “Modu” on them clearly indicated their origin.
Old Modu brand watches, likely products from the eighties or nineties, even if slightly collectible, weren’t worth much–three to five hundred at most.
The other necklace wasn’t made of gold, since gold would still show its true color under the underwater light.
The necklace was thin, not like those exaggerated iron Jewelry, with no rust, so obviously it wasn’t iron.
The necklace shimmered with a silver luster under the light, which made him think it was probably platinum.
Silver would oxidize and turn black in seawater, only platinum is stable enough to not change much.
This necklace, if bought from a gold shop, would be worth about three thousand, but how much it would sell for, he didn’t know.
But with some gains, Chu Mingcheng’s trip wasn’t in vain.
Having been underwater for over two hours, he placed the watches and necklace into a small net pouch and then first swam back to the surface to breathe.
From a distance, he looked at his ship; the Sea God was lit with a lamp and its indicator light blinked steadily; the sea surface looked very quiet and no other ships appeared.
Then holding his breath, he dived back into the water and continued swimming toward the sunken ship to search the next level.
While no cargo was visible on the deck of this cargo ship, exploring the ship’s hull was valuable.
It was unfortunate that there was no cargo on the deck, nor were there any scattered cargo containers nearby; otherwise, he could have tried opening a mystery box to see what was inside.
Just arriving at the deck location, Chu Mingcheng suddenly hesitated.
