It was 6:00 PM in the United States, and it was time to board the ship.

People waiting below the ship began to board one after another.

However, Qiu Yuluo and her group were still at the back, and it wasn't their turn yet.

About an hour later, those in the queue, including Qiu Yuluo and her group, had all boarded the ship.

Lin Yi also prepared himself and headed towards the VIP channel.

"Sir, please show your boarding pass and identification."

The speaker was a young white girl in her twenties, with a few freckles on her face.

Lin Yi took out his boarding pass and proof of funds. The white girl checked them and, finding no issues, politely said:

"You can board now. Have a pleasant journey."

"Alright, thank you."

Lin Yi nodded, picked up his suitcase, and prepared to board.

Life is like this: when you prepare for the worst, the outcome is often better than expected.

Just like this boarding, he had made many preparations in advance, but none of them were needed.

He could consider himself lucky.

Being rich is truly great.

"Wait, Mr. from China!"

Just as he had walked less than a meter, Lin Yi heard someone calling him from behind.

The speaker was about forty years old, standing behind the white girl, wearing a dark blue uniform. He wasn't a local police officer but a staff member of the ship.

"What's the matter?"

"I need to check your suitcase."

"Hmm?"

Lin Yi looked at the middle-aged man, "The people in front of me also had suitcases. Why are you checking mine specifically?"

"There's no reason. Because you are Chinese, we need to check it."

"Racial discrimination?"

"No, no, no, that's not what I meant." The middle-aged man shrugged and said:

"I just want to check it. Of course, if you were American, I wouldn't check it, but unfortunately, you're not."

Lin Yi smiled and walked back, casually opening his suitcase to reveal stacks of brand new US dollars.

The wealthy people around him were fine; they were rich and didn't care about the money.

But the ordinary staff members couldn't remain calm.

They were lower-class Americans who had never seen so much money in their lives.

"These are the things I'm bringing. You can check them freely. If anything is missing, you will be held responsible," Lin Yi said.

"Also, according to Florida law, your behavior now constitutes racial discrimination. I will file a complaint with the local court afterward."

The middle-aged man was scared and didn't dare to speak or check Lin Yi's belongings for a long time.

If the money was found to be missing and he was accused, it would be very troublesome, and he might even lose his job.

"This is my job. I have the right to check your belongings."

Lin Yi shrugged, "You do have the right to check, so you can check freely. But I will reserve the right to sue you. Do you think the judge will help you, an American, or believe the money in my hands?" The middle-aged man was completely stunned.

He just didn't like these Asians and wanted to make things difficult for them, but he never thought it would cause him so much trouble.

"Alright, I've finished checking. You can go now."

Lin Yi smiled, took out a stack of US dollars from his suitcase, and handed it to the white girl.

"Beautiful lady, this is a gift for you. I wish you a pleasant workday."

The white girl was overjoyed when she received the money from Lin Yi, "Thank you, handsome sir. God will surely bless you with a perfect journey."

"Thank you."

Lin Yi smiled, thanked her, and then closed his suitcase and boarded the ship.

As one of the largest cruise ships in the world, the Quantum's scale was much larger than the Sea Star.

It had a helipad, swimming pools, and even offered thrilling activities like parasailing, which were not common on ordinary cruise ships.

"Sir, according to the sailing regulations, the area above the fourth floor is the VIP zone. You can experience different sailing experiences there. Have a pleasant journey," the white receptionist said.

"Alright, thank you."

Lin Yi had already known this basic information before boarding.

According to the regulations, ordinary guests could only stay on the first to third floors.

VIPs, however, had no restrictions on their movement, a clear sign of old capitalists.

Lin Yi carried his suitcase and took the elevator to the fifth floor, where his reserved room was located.

Now, all the information he had was used up.

Whether he could find the person named Jimmy would depend entirely on his luck.

Because Lin Yi boarded the ship relatively late, the ship set sail shortly after he boarded.

The massive ship cut through the blue sea, white waves surging, and the giant Quantum cruise ship sailed into the ocean.

Lin Yi returned to his room, which was as luxurious as a top-tier hotel suite.

It matched the reputation of the Quantum.

He opened his suitcase and took out all the US dollars inside.

In the hidden compartment, besides the surgical knife and dagger, there was also an ultra-thin laptop.

These were all his equipment for this trip.

Holding the laptop, Lin Yi connected to the ship's network.

He then opened the hacking software Snort. Lin Yi was not an expert in the hacking field but had the necessary basic knowledge.

However, over time, he had frequently discussed these topics with Shen Tianzhuo, Sun Fuyu, and Lu Ying, so his current level, though not top-tier, was quite good.

Moreover, the level of the Quantum's local network system was not high, and Lin Yi could handle it without much difficulty.

Lin Yi's idea was simple: to hack into the ship's local network and then check the guest check-in information.

He hoped to find the person named Jimmy this way.

After about twenty minutes, the software successfully hacked in, and the remaining task was a tedious scanning process.

It would take about an hour to complete.

All he could do was wait.

After finishing the preliminary preparations, Lin Yi put the computer aside.

He took out the surgical knife and dagger from the hidden compartment of the suitcase and went to the hall on the fourth floor to check the situation there.

The hall on the fourth floor was long and narrow, about 100 meters from end to end, but only about twenty meters wide. However, this did not affect the lively atmosphere.

There was no cocktail party here; it was a pure large casino!

Anything that couldn't be seen in public was allowed here.

As long as you had money, you could do anything here.

It was even crazier than the private jet exhibition in Asia Bay.

Because this was America, and as long as you had money, even the law would favor you!
