Some people were luckier than others. Although they were nervous, they managed to grab onto the railings in time. Some people panicked and were at a loss. They fell against the railings and were thrown into the sea.

"Ahhh!" Screams erupted from the crowd. Seeing people fall into the sea made the others even more nervous.

Little Yichen held his brother's hand tightly as they groped their way to a less crowded area.

The two young lads remained calm.

They all knew that in times like this, the most important thing was to remain calm. Even if they were to panic, it would not make things better.

The two little lads held hands tightly as they weaved through the crowd until the banquet hall was far behind them.

Many sailors were making their way towards the cockpit. As they got closer, Yun Shishi's voice suddenly rang out.

"Youyou! Little Yichen!"

Youyou was the first to hear it before Little Yichen did. Both of them stopped in their tracks and looked in the direction of the voice. They saw Yun Shishi running towards them and throwing her arms around them nervously. She looked at the boys from head to toe, and noted that they had varying degrees of injuries on their bodies.

There were some hints of bruises on Youyou's face, and especially when she saw the bloodstains on Little Yichen's abdomen, she sucked in her breath!

"Little Yichen, you're hurt!"

Little Yichen reassured his mother, "Mommy, don't worry. This blood isn't mine!" He had lied to her so that she would not worry, especially at this moment.

Youyou asked strangely, "Mommy, why are you here? Little Yichen said that you're in the cockpit…"

"I…"

As though suddenly struck by a thought, Little Yichen asked suspiciously, "Is the captain dead?"

"Mm… ummm."

Yun Shishi nodded guiltily. "I stabbed him. I don't know if I damaged his arteries, as he lost a lot of blood. He passed out and there were no vital signs… I shouldn't have hit him so hard…"

"Was he trying to kill you?" Little Yichen's eyes glinted dangerously.

"Yes…"

"If that's the case, Mommy, don't blame yourself. He deserves to die!"

After a pause, the boy continued, "I suspect that the ship has collided with a reef and that has ripped a huge hole in the bottom of the ship. It's probably because water has gotten in that it has tilted. I'm worried that the ship will capsize soon…"

"Capsize…" Yun Shishi sucked in a deep breath of icy air.

Little Yichen said, "Let's find a lifeboat and leave this place! Mommy, don't be afraid. There's still time. We're still in time!"

"Where are the lifeboats?"

"They're usually along the port and starboard. I didn't see them on my way here. I'll go to the stern immediately to take a look!"

"Okay!"

Yun Shishi nodded.

Youyou suddenly pulled Little Yichen back. The latter turned around in confusion and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Dietris' VIP cabin is at the center.."

"That's right…"

"Well, then, would he locate the lifeboat in the stern, which is such a long way from the center?" The boy narrowed his eyes suspiciously.

Little Yichen was jolted awake by his words!

The lifeboat shouldn't be far from the VIP hideout!

Little Yichen took Yun Shishi's and Youyou's hands. "Come, let's go back this way!"

The three of them passed through the panicking crowd and came to the area near the VIP cabin. They saw Dietris walking towards the ship's starboard, escorted by his subordinates.

These men must have freed him after they had left.
