937.A Piao in a Box (1/5)

Overnight, the big ship and the platform anchored and headed south.

Ao Muyang saw the salvage platform for the first time, this thing is similar to a ship but different, it also has a cockpit and an engine, but there are only these two points that are close to the ship.

He had once seen a large transport pallet truck with an engine on the highway, and this salvage platform was the underwater version of the transport pallet truck.

The two sea giants galloped on the water, the speed was not slow, the weight of the platform was exaggerated, and the driving on the sea was very stable, Ao Muyang could even put a glass of Coke without splashing it.

What he was curious about was not the salvage platform, but the narrow steamer ahead.

He felt like it was a warship.

From the moment he arrived at the Nereus Salvage Company, he became interested in the flagship, not far from the platform, a sixty-meter long ship with a low foredeck covered with a gun suit, like the water cannon of the Dragonhead.

But further back it was different, the ship had a tall central superstructure bridge, the trailing edge of which was equipped with a comprehensive closed mainmast, and then there were two double rectangular cylindrical buildings, which Ao Muyang looked at with a telescope, with a protruding exhaust port, much like the chimney of a warship.

There are two rows of circular iron covers between the cylindrical building and the main mast, but they all seem to be welded to death, and there is a streamlined round ball on the cylindrical flat platform, which he has seen many times on the warships at the Hongyang base, and Du Yulong told him that it is a kind of satellite communication system fairing......

In addition, there are still gun jackets on the top of the bridge, and there are two of them, one on each side, and there is a lifeboat on the ship, which is hung on a davit on the starboard side, and next to this davit there is a device that looks like a missile launcher......

Ao Muyang is not a senior military fan, he doesn't know much about the navy, what he knows about warships is made up a few days ago, anyway, in his eyes, this ship is very much like a small warship.

But this can't be said, Su Li helped him investigate, Nereus is just an ordinary marine treasure salvage company, maybe it is very large and powerful in the industry, but the commercial company is definitely not linked to warships.

Ao Muyang wanted to get close to the big ship to take a closer look, but he didn't have a chance, the big ship remained mysterious, and the people on the boat never communicated with the staff on the platform, and there were people on duty day and night.

Everything was just his suspicions, and Barr, Frey Sr., and others did not introduce them, and he did not have to ask.

If you talk too much, you will lose, he is just a guide, and if you care too much, I am afraid that it will lead to suspicion.

The two sea monsters swaggered south, eventually approaching a large ship.

Carrying a beer bottle, Barr pointed to the southern steamer and said, "That's the flagship of the X-Deep Sea, a group of hillbillies who don't know anything about the marine salvage industry, rushing in and waiting for their heads to bleed." ”

Ao Muyang asked, "What is their background?"

Barr shrugged and said, "Who cares? it could be a rich man who wants to have fun at sea, believe me, Honoré, they won't find any shipwreck treasures, they're just a bunch of-stirring sticks." ”

According to Ao Muyang's observations, the people of Nereus are very uninterested in the X-Deep Sea side, and there may have been some conflicts between the two sides before.

After nightfall, the big guy returned to the cabin to rest, Ao Muyang figured out the patrol on the platform on duty, and then took advantage of the dark night to enter the sea.

In order to avoid suspicion, he did not put on a diving suit or oxygen tank, and he left the black dragon on the boat to help him cover so that even if he was found in the water, he could explain: I just went to take a shower.

Quietly, he sank to the bottom of the sea, his eyes wide and searched.

The depth of the surrounding sea water is about thirty meters, and the anchorage chosen by the two ships of Nereus is a submarine hill, and the water gradually deepens as they swim around, reaching a maximum depth of three or four hundred meters.

He searched gradually, but found nothing about the target, but in the deep sea he found several large chests, which looked like coffins, made of wood, and surrounded by thick nylon ropes tied to the reef, apparently deliberately sunk here.

Ao Muyang probably searched around and found that there were more than ten boxes here, and after he carefully observed and found that there was no danger, he approached a box to see what was inside.

The wooden box is bound from straight boards, and it is evident that it has just been made, and the grain of the wood is very clear, and it has not yet been soaked by seawater.

Oddly enough, the lids of several boxes were skewed to varying degrees, possibly due to the waves crashing on their descent into the water.

Walking around the box, Ao Muyang wanted to see what was inside through the gap between the lid and the box, but unfortunately the gap was too small for him to see anything.

In addition, he patted the box with his hand, and the sea shook, and the wooden board did not move, obviously the material used in it was very solid, and the thickness of the wooden board was considerable.

He carried a sharp dagger with him, and the lid of the box was tied to the box with a thick nylon rope, and the reefs hung from it, which sank the box to the bottom of the sea.

Cutting the nylon rope with a dagger, he pulled the lid of the wooden box up.

This is very easy, maybe this lid is made of thick wooden boards, but because of the shape, the lid bears a lot of buoyancy, Ao Muyang made a hard effort, and the lid of the wooden box floated.

Then, the three Ah Piao floated up......

These three Ah Piao are three corpses, their faces are extremely hideous, their eyes are extremely wide, their tongues are extremely elongated, and their limbs are twisted and exaggerated.

The corpse glared angrily at the gray-white eyes without pupils and floated up, Ao Muyang subconsciously grabbed the lid of the wooden box and pulled it down vigorously and closed them in.

At that moment, he noticed that there were many scratches on the inside of the lid, and the fingers of the three corpses were strangely twisted, and the nails were all cracked!

The moment he noticed this detail, Ao Muyang realized what was going on.

Three living people were forced into the wooden box, and then they were stoned and sunk to the bottom of the sea, and the three of them were suffocated to death, and before they died, they struggled with all their might, and tried to pick the lid open, but it was in vain......

It was too cruel to step on the horse, Lao Ao subconsciously shuddered.

There is no doubt that there was a horrific murder in the nearby sea, and he suddenly felt that something was wrong when he thought about it, and according to his experience of watching TV and movies, when the protagonist finds out about this kind of murder, there is usually a villain murderer behind him.

So he immediately grabbed his saber and looked back vigilantly, and behind him was the deep water.

When he looked up again, there was also ordinary sea water above his head, and nothing terrible happened.

This made him breathe a sigh of relief, the three corpses in the wooden box were really terrible, and the murderer's methods were too terrible, and he felt fear in his heart.
