The "Bingguo" cruise ship rescued three teenagers who had fallen overboard—Ouyang, Ma Weika, and Ou Muqi. The trio had originally planned to sneak aboard the ship by pretending to be overboard passengers, but their ruse was uncovered by the captain, who decided to drop them off at Guangbo Island and arrange for a boat to take them home. However, the children took advantage of the captain's inattention to escape and hide on the ship, forcing the captain to continue the voyage. The story leaves a cliffhanger, sparking curiosity about what happens next.

Thirteen: The Game at Sea

The three children aboard the "Bingguo" cruise ship—Ma Weika, Ou Muqi, and Ouyang—embarked on a maritime adventure. To evade the captain's search, they hid in cabins and scavenged food from the buffet. The captain issued a warning over the ship's PA system, cautioning passengers against harboring the children, as doing so would be illegal. The kids discussed their predicament, suspecting that MJ might be observing them from aboard the ship to ensure his own safety and possibly waiting for the right moment to act. They planned to relocate that night and debated how to rescue Miduo Xi. Ouyang proposed a bold plan: intentionally getting caught to get closer to MJ. Though Ma Weika hesitated at first, with Ou Muqi's encouragement, they decided to proceed with Ouyang's scheme.
