Liang Jian: I have a canteen

With the help of Huanji, Xu San, Hank, and the Lisa sisters all completed their civilian clothes.

Xu San and his group were not trained and could not deform their bones; they could only use gel-like substances to assist them.

Even so, the four of them completely changed their appearance.

Lisa looked at herself in the mirror for a long time, then poked her face with her finger and said, "It lacks elasticity and doesn't look shiny."

"Alright! In extraordinary times, it's impossible to achieve perfection." Xu San stood behind her and reached out to pat her head.

Elisa stood to the side, turned her body slightly, and her long dress swayed as she turned.

A scent of roses wafted over, and Xu San couldn't help but twitch his nose.

"Actually, it's not too bad. Unless you're very close, you can't tell the disguise at all."

Hans also came over, turned his face, and shook it in the mirror. "Very good. I didn't expect Miss Huan to have this kind of skill."

Huanji put away her tools and said to Xu San, "This makeup can last for 12 hours. After that, the outer layer will dry and crack, and you'll need to add special oils. I didn't bring enough of these oils to make a single repair."

"I think we'll be able to reach that island in less than 12 hours, right?" Xu San asked, staring at Huan Ji.

“It won’t work! But… she…” Huanji said, glancing at the three German siblings.

Xu San glanced at it as well, then turned around and said, "Go ahead and speak, it's nothing. We're in the same boat now."

"We may have to cross a storm zone."

"A storm?" Hans exclaimed in surprise. "If it were a normal storm, this cruise ship could withstand it simply by dropping anchor."

“But what if we don’t anchor?” Huanji looked at Hans and said meaningfully.

Hans shrugged. "Then we can only pray to God that the cruise ship wasn't built with substandard materials." "Hehehe~" Xu San walked over and patted him on the shoulder. "This place isn't under God's jurisdiction."

"Then who is in charge?" Lisa asked.

"Shouldn't it belong to that queen named Himiko?"

“Himiko?” Elisa muttered to herself. I had seen this name in books from Japan.

"How much do you know?" Xu San asked.

Elisa shook her head. "Not many, just one name. The book only records that she was a queen, and judging by the dates, she should have lived in the fourth century AD."

Elisa lowered her head and thought for a moment, then said, "That's all."

"The ship's current destination should be the palace where that queen once lived."

"The royal palace?" Lisa blinked, her expression full of longing.

“But that palace isn’t the palace from a fairy tale,” Xu San said with a smile. “How could a palace that’s 1,500 or 1,600 years old compare to the ones we have now? Besides, island nations have always been resource-poor. Even if it were a palace, it would probably be about the size of a landlord’s mansion.”

“Even if it’s a landlord’s mansion, it must be a very beautiful mansion!” Lisa retorted, unconvinced.

“Maybe,” Xu San walked to the window and looked at the scenery outside, “maybe there’s nothing there. After all this time, it’s still a question whether that palace is even still there!”

“I’ll definitely be there!” Lisa said, pumping her fist.

"Why are you so sure?" Xu San asked, looking out the window without turning his head.

"Because you said it! Isn't that enough?" (End of Chapter)
