"Did you find it?" the glasses woman was urging me at the same time, because the strange fish outside were still relentlessly besieging the hull of the submarine.

Fortunately, this pocket submarine seems to have been reinforced twice in the outer layer, and now although it is shaking greatly, it seems that it cannot be broken for the time being, but even so, I am afraid that there will not be much time left for me and Yabu.

I ignored the strange ghost behind me and immediately pounced on the device that was recognized.

Although the appearance of this machine is different from the machine at the outside checkpoint, I quickly discovered two key points of iris and fingerprint recognition.

I pressed my thumb directly to the place where the fingerprint was recognized, and then I heard a string of English appear on the horn inside the machine, which is where the glasses woman heard the voice.

With my broken English, I still roughly understood the meaning, in fact, it was very simple, it was telling me that the identification was successful, and all the control permissions of the submarine had been opened.

As soon as the sound fell, I saw a monitor above the console on my side light up with a "bang".

The figure of the glasses woman appeared again, and what surprised me was that there were Ouyang Jingjing and the saint girl who had been hiding before.

โ€ฆโ€ฆ

What's the situation?

Aren't they afraid of being discovered?

And this time the image was different from the previous ones, not only could I see them, but they could actually see me.

Ouyang Jingjing also waved at me and said, "Xiao Chen, something has changed here...... It seems like...... Looks like someone is following us!"

"Who?" I was even more surprised.

"It's very likely that they are still the bounty hunters of the former Blue Bird Company!" Ouyang Jingjing said, "They may have discovered our whereabouts halfway, so they followed in, as if they wanted to take this opportunity to save their accomplices!"

I frowned, save the accomplices?

Although these bounty hunters are a group, but when they were in the Blue Bird Company, they actually fought on their own, and many times they even acted alone, and they had to say whether they knew each other or not, how could they be so united now?

I feel that Ouyang Jingjing's guess should be very unreliable.

Sure enough, St. Ann on the side immediately retorted: "I don't think they're here to save people, I feel ...... They're more like they're here for something. โ€

"What is it?" I asked.

"I don't know exactly what it is, but it's certainly the same thing or person that Yabu is looking for. โ€

I took a deep breath and felt that the saint's statement was more reliable.

The Saintess continued: "There seem to be a lot of bounty hunters lurking in this time, they have already messed up the whole building, and now those Maine people are dealing with these guys, so we took advantage of the chaos to get back here. โ€

I nodded, it seemed that the glasses girl had already confessed what she wanted to help us, with Ouyang Jingjing's intelligence, it was still very easy for the two of them to communicate and understand things.

As we spoke, the woman in glasses was in full swing to maneuver the submarine remotely, and I saw that the submarine continued to dive for some distance, and when the whole hull was completely submerged, it began to move forward quickly.

It feels like this is probably covered by a local area wireless network...... That's why the glasses woman can control the submarine remotely.

When the submarine was moving underwater, it seemed to spew out some white liquid, which seemed to have some kind of dispersing effect, and actually drove away all the strange fish around us who were besieging us.

And I noticed that the submarine was clearly heading towards the secret door now, as if it was going to get in from there.

"Wait a minute!" I hurriedly yelled, "What are you doing here?"

"Aren't you going in?" asked the glasses girl, confused.

"When did I say I was going in?" I shook my head and said, "Hell knows what's in there!"

"I've just observed. The glasses woman said: "There are a lot of children's corpses in the water around here, presumably they all escaped along the tunnel, and now the data at the mouth of the tunnel shows that it has been sealed, so the only way to save them is to walk through this underground river......! Xiao Chen, aren't you here to save them?"

This glasses girl seems to be much smarter than I thought, she actually read my mind so quickly, and I feel that she is even more powerful than Yue Ling......

What's more, she seems to be really expert in the remote control of the entire building system, and she can even detect the situation at the mouth of the tunnel.

"Do you know where this underground river leads?" I continued.

"This underground river is used as a sewer. The woman in glasses immediately replied: "The three secret doors you see now are actually sluices, and inside is a waterway that has been artificially dug out by the Salvation Army. But since those children can run in, it means that there must be enough room to survive inside, and the rest of the things will only know the outcome after they go in!"

"Xiao Chen, I can't hesitate!" Ouyang Jingjing also urged beside her: "Since Yabu brought you here, then he must hope that you can save those friends of hers! Maybe those culprits who control them are also with them!"

I exhaled slightly, Ouyang Jingjing's words are to the point, if someone really followed those children to chase in, it is really very likely that it is the guys who remotely manipulated Yabu before!

At the same time, I glanced at Yabu again, and saw that she was indeed pointing to the mouth of the tunnel into the water.

It seems that she has identified this place as well, and maybe she has sensed the location of the child who is still alive nearby.

Then I nodded at the glasses girl on the monitor and said, "Okay!

As soon as the glasses girl heard my words, she immediately steered the submarine and continued to drive forward.

The surrounding schools of strange fish were further dispersed, and at the same time, bright underwater searchlights flashed in front of the submarine, illuminating all the paths.

The diameter of this waterway is quite wide, although it is far less wide than the previous tunnel, but at least it can carry two or three large trucks side by side.

The place was dug by hand, the tunnel walls were very smooth, and I found that there were also those weird mural patterns on the stone walls here.

Grandma's, these murals are really everywhere.

The glasses girl began to control the submarine to shuttle quickly through the waterway, and I took the opportunity to ask Ouyang Jingjing and the Holy Maiden if they had noticed anything unusual behind me......

That's right......

It was the strange little child ghost still in the middle of the cabin.

I didn't ask directly, on the one hand, I was afraid of scaring Ouyang Jingjing, and on the other hand, ...... Is it because if even the glasses girl hadn't heard of such a thing, wouldn't I be mistaken for a psychopath?

Now that she's in control of the submarine, I don't want her to have the slightest suspicion of me.

At the moment, I just tried to test the two of them with some words, and found that they really couldn't see the ghost.

The grass was gone, and I squinted at the ghost around me again, wondering how long the hell would this ghost float here?

It hasn't hurt me so far, but it's not a problem he's floating here all the time.

But when I thought about it, I noticed that the ghost's form gradually became illusory...... Finally disappeared into the air like smoke and dust......

It was the first time I had watched the disappearance of such a child's ghost from such a close distance, and it felt even more realistic.

After all, it was a long-range operation, and the speed of the submarine was much slower after entering the waterway.

Jabu was still unconcerned about the appearance of the glasses, and I was even beginning to wonder if she and the woman had known each other before......

Because of the slowdown, I was able to get a closer look at the mural patterns on the stone walls in the water around me.

Well......

Most of the patterns were the ones I'd seen before, including sacrificial scenes and narrative images of humans hunting Gu animals, but I soon discovered some brand new patterns!

These murals have some clearly childlike motifs!

And in front of these children, they also drew some strange things with simple lines and abstract images, which seemed to be the appearance of humans after being transformed.

In short, these patterns are obviously expressing the things of children manipulating nearby Gu objects and humans.

The submarine went on this way for less than five or six minutes, and then it slowed down even further, and I was about to ask what was going on, when I realized that the front of the waterway had reached the end.

At the outlet of the waterway is indeed an underground river, but the source of this underground river is not only the water in the black pool when we came, this underground river actually has another tributary, which extends from another direction, and the waterway we just came out converge to form this underground river.

I saw more mud footprints on the shore on the side, and ...... And a few small children who fell to the ground!

As soon as Jabu saw the children, his spirits suddenly increased.

At the same time, I heard the glasses woman also say, "I can only take you here, if you want to return from here, you should board the boat from here, and I will keep an eye on the situation here at the far end!"

As he spoke, the submarine began to float out of the water, and the revolving door on the roof opened.

I jumped out after making sure there were no strange fish around me, and Yabu followed.

We walked down the underground river to the shore and found that the children were already corpses.

There were three corpses in total, and they were all obviously burned alive by the Gu Fire.
