Hearing this resounding accusation, a look of panic clearly flashed across Captain Jia's face, but he quickly suppressed it and said in a grave voice, "Then tell me, where exactly have I lied? Baseless accusations can't convict anyone."
His complexion was gloomy, his tone cold, and the scar on his face seemed even more ferocious, making him look extremely formidable.
But Shi Zhou was not afraid of him, and while pointing a sword at him, she said, "I saw it just now on the deck, you were talking to this man."
After lunch, she had not gone back to her room to rest. She intended to go up to the deck to enjoy the breeze, but before she got there, she had seen someone on the deck.
One of the men she had already met; it was Captain Jia.
As for the other person, he looked quite ordinary and unremarkable, so she assumed he was someone doing work on the ship.
But now, having seen the assassin's face, she suddenly recalled this scene.
