The steward nods. "I'll have the guards monitored, and make sure everyone who knows is aware that they'll be flogged if they're caught talking about the murder."
After telling her new acquaintances that she'd see them later, Chitsukiko hurried along the ship to find her cabin to unload the packing she kept wrapped in a colorful sack around her back. Unless anything happened between then she intended to walk to the top level of the ship to watch the sea, leaning across the railing. Maybe she could find cousin Jian to continue her lessons in Tai Chi, the flat open spaces seemed perfect to practice on.
Inazuma nod to him. It look like she can't do anything more here, the ship will soon sail. She Rush back to port, to get on ship.
Yunah smiles back. "You sure You will be ok? You have something to Defend Yourself? Your Friend is not in the condition to Fight"
Left mostly by herself, Koyumi felt like it was a good tome to “explore” the ship and look for anything valuable that wasn’t nailed down.
"No, just lost in thought." Kyouka shakes her head, "Anyway, let's hurry on to the ship. We still have to see who gets to tame whom." She said with a sultry grin.
The sailors are preparing to depart, as she arrives. She's denied entry by the guards, but easily sneaks in without detection.
"We should be fine, I think. Please, go on with your business, my lady. No need to bother with us any longer after all the help you've given us." She bows painfully. "We're already eternally in your debt."
Her sensitive nose quickly picks up the smells of spice, incense and gunpowder coming from the hold. Up in the tenshu-like structure at the top of the ship, she notices that there are a number of stately rooms tht look much like those in a cstle. It's not a stretch to imagine that perhaps there are valuables inside, left by rich passengers.
"I can't say I dislike the thought of either option." Shintaro leads her up to the tenshu at the top of the ship, entering a large bedchamber with a smirk.
Midori took a long look at the impressive ship before getting onboard and looking for the cabin she had been given. After leaving her belongings there she decided to to take a walk around the ship and get familiar with it before they depart.
Inazuma think what she should do next, and decided to go check Lord's Yokuboo chamber's for any trap or small holes what could be use to peaking. On ship that large, It is impossible for her to find shinobi but maybe She could waiting for him to show up, like spider in the web.
As she walks, she sees Koyumi looking around and sniffing inquisitively, as well as Chitsukiko approaching Jian. The man who she saw leaving her mother's house is also there, looking out at the ocean.
Jian inclined his head and smiled at Chitsukiko, 'The Shogun has quite a big ship, impressive. Do you know how long the journey will be?'
Midori gave Koyumi a curious look. What is she doing? She wondered, but decided to leave the woman to her own devices for now. Looking back at Chitsukiko, she saw that the young woman was now engaged in conversation and decided not to bother her. Thus she continued exploring the ship, looking for anything or anyone of interest, or for anything that seemed unusual.
In a large and opulent room, she finds a few holes, almost too small to see, poked into the walls. Tapping on the roof, she finds that parts of it are hollow, and opening it up, finds a crawlspace that a shinobi could use to travel around the tenshu unseen.
Once they entered the room, Kyouka starts undoing her breastplate's straps. "Ho? This looks pretty normal. And here I thought you'd have the same room as that dungeon." She teased, standing infront of him wearing nothing but her skintight bodysuit.
"You are not in My Debt. I saw You need Help, so I helped You. I wish You safe Travels and a speedy recovery. But please if You are in safety tell them that A Samurai of Clan Sakai helped You."
