365. A new discovery of an island in the middle of a lake
As we enter December, the days are getting longer, but around half past five in the afternoon, the sky has begun to darken.
The sun crossed the hill, and the whole land fell silent in shadow, illuminated only by the afterglow and the moon that came out early.
Emperor Wu had to turn on the headlights and the marker lights in advance to guide Greg and them on the voyage.
The Flamingo below also turned on all the lights, and a small area of the lake sparkled with large fish jumping out of the water from time to time, and the previously stocked fry had grown to the point where they could be caught after a few months.
The co-pilot's Tex was holding an SLR rifle, he was wearing windproof goggles, and his movements were very professional.
Emperor Wu felt that he was suspected of deliberately being handsome.
"Dude, it's just you and me, you don't need to be so cool. Emperor Wu joked.
When Turks heard this, he wanted to show even more, leaned half of his body out of the fuselage, and pulled the walkie-talkie and shouted: "The Falcon is ready to shoot at any time." ”
Greg was happy, "Don't aim at my delicate ass!"
"By the way, Xiaoqiang, Karina is pregnant with a boy and a girl, congratulations on becoming a father of two children. ”
At the mention of the child, Turks slipped back into the cabin, his eyes turning loving.
Karina's due date is tomorrow after the Spring Festival, and Australia does not allow early check-ups or abortions. Turks wanted to be a boy so they could get together.
"Boss, you haven't planned yet, Kaibi's mother doesn't seem to be in a hurry to hug her grandson. Turks said with a smile.
"Ms. Caitlyn is open to the matter, as long as it doesn't drag it out until the age of fifty to get married. ”
The helicopter slowly approached the island in the middle of the lake, and at first glance there was no problem, but tall trees were everywhere, and it was a completely undeveloped natural island.
"Good luck, boss! Frank and I patrol the island, and we are always ready to talk if we have any questions. ”
The Flamingo struck all the way to the right and began to slow down in a circle around the island, looking like a firefly moving at high speed from a high altitude.
Emperor Wu lowered his flight altitude and turned on the high-beam searchlight, illuminating a piece below.
The island is not large, and if you maintain a low speed, you can cross the whole island in about two minutes.
"Xiaoqiang, have you found anything? Emperor Wu asked.
Tex observed the situation below through his sniper rifle, "Boss, there's nothing but a swarm of turtles. ”
The biggest overlord on the island now is the group of turtles represented by the "suitcase", at least it seems that way.
The group of turtles hid in small bushes at night to rest, and basked on the beach during the day.
Emperor Wu guessed, could the turtles below be brought by animal smugglers?
Thinking about the impossibility, the curved-necked turtle can be seen everywhere in Australia, and it has no special value, so it should not enter the field of vision of smugglers.
In the center of the island is a huge rock, surrounded by a bare clearing of a few hundred meters, without any vegetation cover, as if it had been trimmed.
"Boss, did you build a warehouse on the island?"
Tex's words made Emperor Wu stunned, he did have this plan, but he hadn't put it into action yet.
"No, what's wrong. ”
Tex pointed behind him, "If I'm not mistaken, there were at least three buildings in that forest just now. ”
Emperor Wu was surprised, although he didn't have any auxiliary equipment and only observed with the naked eye, but under the improvement of Shennong's Spirit, his strength reached the highest level of a normal person, and he didn't find anything abnormal just now.
"Why didn't I see anything?" said Emperor Wu.
Turks smiled, "Don't forget that I'm a person who has been in the army, and the buildings below make good use of the bunkers, which can't be detected from the air, and it seems that the people who built them have strong anti-reconnaissance capabilities." ”
Emperor Wu probably knew where he was talking about, which was in the easterly direction of the center, an intricate primeval jungle.
Uncle Greg also drove the speedboat to the vicinity of the area, looking for some clues.
Emperor Wu slowly let the helicopter sag, this is a technical job, hovering at low altitude can crash if you are not careful.
Given his performance during the previous takeoff, Tex sweated and stared at the boss intently, always ready to snatch the steering wheel.
"Boss, are you sure you can?" asked Tex, worried.
Emperor Wu smiled slightly, this is not a matter, the big deal is that the machine will destroy people and reincarnate.
Descending to a height of fifty meters from the woods, Emperor Wu stopped the helicopter and asked it to hold at a slightly inclined angle, so that Xiao Qiang could take some pictures.
There was no one down there, only a few makeshift shacks, tattered and old, the roof covered with army-green tarpaulin, which was hard to detect from the air.
"Did the previous owners, Mr. and Mrs. Hans, mention this?"
The problem of Tex Land made Emperor Wu ponder, he would come to work in the ranch of Nanao at that time, he had never heard Hans mention the island in the middle of the lake, at that time Huaxi Lake was an overgrown wild lake area, and it was impossible for Hans and his wife to go to the island to do construction.
Moreover, if they were to build them, they would not build such shacks, but drug dealers in the South American jungles would use these improvised structures as drug dens.
The searchlight shined through the trees into the ground, and the night was too dark to see only a small step, and one thing was certain, there was no one underneath.
Tex, who had a wealth of experiments, concluded that the shack below had been abandoned, and that no one had been there for at least half a year.
Uncle Greg's hoarse voice sounded over the intercom, "Boss, a small boat was found on the shore, and someone also built a small dock, I think that person is definitely not you." ”
Emperor Wu turned the fuselage and flew towards the flamingo that was shining on the water, not far away, only two hundred meters away.
In the eyes of ordinary people, the "dock" is just a small area surrounded by a few wooden stakes, but in the eyes of their veterans, it is a harbor where ships can dock.
The boat they saw was a wooden boat that could seat three or four people, a bit like the one left by the Hanses.
But there were certainly no of these wooden piles standing on the shore before, and it was obvious that they were installed at a later stage.
The old owner of the ranch was powerless about the development of Huaxi Lake, so it has always been a mess here.
So the question is, who exactly landed on the island and built those shacks.
Thinking about it, it is very likely that during the period from the death of Hans and his wife to Emperor Wu's takeover of the ranch, there were almost three years, and the ranch was in a state of abandonment and no one took care of it, so it gave the lawless people some opportunities to take advantage of.
Three years is enough time for those people to use the island in the middle of the lake as a smuggling paradise, and no one will come to check the private territory.
Tex felt that Emperor Wu's analysis was very reasonable, he was the first person to come to the ranch except for the Franks, and with his special forces' sense of smell, it was impossible not to detect it.
During that time, Tex often drove his own boat to fish in Huaxi Lake, and never met any strangers.
With such an analysis, Emperor Wu felt a little relieved, at least it showed that someone was not doing things now.
It was getting late, and everyone went home after the investigation, waiting for the next day to appear from the police and Ivan investigators.
