It's 9:54. Yumi pulled out the minimeter and looked at it, half an hour after she sent out the distress signal.

It's only half an hour. Yumi frowned and thought, anxious inside. Although she also understood that it was only half an hour before the signal, and Lin Hainan and the others could not arrive no matter how fast they were, the injury on her forehead and the remorse of acting without permission kept tormenting her.

After sitting there and resting for a while, Yumi stood up and surveyed the small room.

Metal walls, metal floors, metal ceilings. Rare, metal creations.

On the wall facing the door, near the ceiling, was the small window, only twenty centimeters high and narrower than a person's shoulder. Underneath the window is a low bed—a metal platform.

--Other than that, there's nothing else in this room.

Yumi knocked on the wall, and there was no expected "clang" sound, but a very thick and solid sound, just like knocking on a normal wall.

And the small window, surrounded by a finger-thick fence. Yumi stepped on the bed and stood on tiptoe to look at the outside world, only to find that there was a glass cover on the periphery of the window.

And outside the window, there is a full moon, yellowish moonlight. The tops of Yumi's dense trees.

I took out my mini-watch and took a picture of what it looked like outside the window. Yumi got out of bed, walked to the door, and tentatively pushed the door.

No way.

Yumi closed her eyes tiredly, and the regret of acting without permission came back to her heart.

Lin Hainan, Feng Jianfei and Xu Jin were shocked by the scene in front of them, and they couldn't help but hold their breath.

This is a huge metal machine, it is very likely that it has traveled in the universe, and suddenly one day, it landed on the earth, in this pearl of the sand sea. Xu Jin has always thought that the spaceship may be like the originator spaceship in "2001: A Space Odyssey", with a double-layered ring, beautiful and cute, or as cool as "Star Troopers" Lee, or a saucer-shaped spaceship in "Independence Day...... Childhood memories came to his heart little by little, Xu Jin was a little excited, but he felt deeply afraid: Where is Yumi? Could the Oriental artifact be an alien?

Xu Jin shuddered. Feng Jianfei seemed to understand him, and patted him on the shoulder: "I have never seen an engineering man with such a rich imagination in you." ”

Xu Jin smiled embarrassedly, and hurriedly followed Lin Hainan and Feng Jian forward.

Lin Hainan walked forward and looked at the wall, looking for something.

"Ah Hai, what are you looking for? ”

"I'd like to see if there's a plan of the ship. For example, there is an evacuation map near a staircase. Lin Hainan explained, walking cautiously along the corridor, alert that someone would suddenly appear around him.

"Here it is. Sure enough, in the stairwell connecting the stairs up and down the fourth floor, there is an escape plan for emergency evacuation.

Xu Jin hurriedly took a picture of the floor plan.

The floor plan is large and lists the floor plan for each floor. At the bottom of the floor plan, it reads "Imperial Island".

This is indeed the Imperial Island, no doubt.

No matter how many guesses they had made before, they were more or less unserious about luck, and now, all their guesses may come true.

"This is the second floor. The first floor below is the 'main control' room, as well as the warehouse," Lin Hainan pointed to the floor plan on the first floor, marking one of the areas, "This area is all warehouses, and there are ten rooms. Lin Hainan looked up at the floor plans of the other floors, and there were fifty rooms on each floor, all marked with studios, reference rooms, and lounges.

"Go to the warehouse and have a look?" Lin Hainan asked Feng Jianfei and Xu Jin for their opinions.

"Let's go. If it's not in the warehouse, then you can only go up. Feng Jianfei wanted to go to the reference room a little bit.

Lin Hainan saw through his thoughts: "If there is a next time, let's see if we can find some information." It's important to find Yumi now. ”

"I know. ”

Xu Jin was already waiting at the top of the stairs, and Lin Hainan and Feng Jianfei hurried to follow. With Xu Jin taking the lead, Lin Hainan in the middle, and after Feng Jian flew off, the three of them lined up and headed towards the first floor.

"Huh," Lin Hainan reminded Xu Jin, "Since this is the main control room below, it is very likely that someone who will encounter the Oriental Artifact, you must be careful." ”

"Uh-huh. Xu Jin helped the night vision goggles, took out the baton from his backpack, held it in his hand, and walked downstairs step by step.

Lin Hainan and Feng Jianfei also took out their weapons from their backpacks and followed Xu Jin down to the first floor.

The first floor seemed empty.

Xu Jin held his breath and cautiously scanned the surroundings, worried that he was too obvious. Twenty meters to the right is the first warehouse.

Like Lin Hainan and Feng Jianfei behind him, he made a gesture, and Xu Jin took the lead in walking forward.

Lin Hainan couldn't help but pause when he saw a dark shadow flashing across the opposite side. But when I looked closely, there was nothing.

"What's wrong?" asked Feng Jianfei, who was following behind Lin Hainan.

Lin Hainan shook his head, maybe it was Xu Jin's shadow, he was too nervous to look dazzled. made a soothing gesture to Feng Jianfei, and hurriedly followed Xu Jin, who had already walked out for a distance.

The first warehouse was not locked, Xu Jin gently pushed the door of the first warehouse, and it was very easy to push it open.

The layout inside is clear at a glance, there is no furniture or cabinets or anything like that, just a lot of boxes are pushed on the ground, some large and some small.

Of course, no one. Lin Hainan and Feng Jianfei had just come in, and Xu Jin was already in a hurry to go out to the next warehouse.

"Wait. Feng Jianfei stopped Xu Jin. "Let's take a look at the box first. ”

Xu Jin was anxious in his heart, and he could only nod. He knew that it was important to find Yumi, but it was even more important to enter the Oriental artifact once. If all of them were caught by the people of the Oriental Artifact today, nothing would necessarily happen, and if the information of the Oriental Artifact could be transmitted back to China, then it would undoubtedly be organic for the future war of resistance between the country and the Oriental Artifact.

Perhaps, Xu Jin's heart flashed with inspiration, maybe Yumi at that time, it was precisely because of this idea that he would lie outside the cemetery of the first pyramid. And Yumi, most likely, has important information.

Xu Jin fell into his imagination again.

Feng Jianfei didn't care about him, and Lin Hainan touched a nearby box, there was no lock, and after opening it, there were some paper bags inside.

Lin Hainan and Feng Jianfei looked very familiar, opened the paper package, and sure enough, it was a broken cultural relic.

"It's just ordinary blue and white. Feng Jianfei turned on the flashlight, looked at the broken porcelain in his hand, found out the bottom from it, and looked at the crest at the bottom, "It's worth a lot, but it's really not too expensive." Put Pan Jiayuan is medium goods. ”

And this box is full of such broken artifacts.

"Open another box. Lin Hainan said, and Feng Jianfei opened the next box.

Similarly, it is also a broken cultural relic, and this box is a painted pottery.

I opened seven or eight boxes in one go, all of them were broken cultural relics, but the varieties were messy, and there were so many types that I had no clue, just stacked in a mess.

The things that were once painstakingly created in the hands of every craftsman, the cultural relics that were once priceless, and the representatives who were once at the top of the brilliant civilization are now piled up like real miscellaneous items in the warehouse in this unknown corner of the world.

Lin Hainan couldn't tell what he felt in his heart.

Feng Jianfei just stood quietly, not knowing what he was thinking, Xu Jin silently recorded what he saw.

"Let's go," it was Lin Hainan who broke the silence first, "Let's go to the next warehouse and have a look." ”

The second warehouse is still unlocked, and there are piles of boxes inside, and in a huge box, Lin Hainan and others even found terracotta warriors.

The third and fourth warehouses are still full of boxes full of artifacts. There are ten such warehouses!

Lin Hainan and the others sped up to check each warehouse, until the eighth warehouse, and finally there was something different.

In the eighth warehouse, there are no longer just stacked boxes, there must be some cultural relics protection boxes that are familiar to cultural relics workers. And these boxes are also stacked more organized.

When I opened a cultural relics protection box, unexpectedly, it was filled with the cultural relics restored by the contestants in the preliminaries - it was the Banpo painted pottery bowl restored by Lin Hainan's opponent team. And in the box below is a three-color beaded mandarin duck pulse pillow.

If you look closely, each box is also marked with "Team So-and-So, Fix So-and-So Item." ”

Presumably all the items repaired in the preliminaries are here. Lin Hainan, Feng Jianfei and Xu Jin looked at them in disbelief.

"If I'm not mistaken, the artifacts we restored were all provided by the Interstellar Development Group. Xu Jin clearly remembers that there is a clear stipulation in the regulations of the event: "All the cultural relics of the competition are provided by the Interstellar Development Group and will be recovered after restoration." No participating team or individual is allowed to take the cultural relics away. ”

But now, why are the artifacts that should have been recovered by the Interstellar Development Group on the Imperial Island of the Eastern Artifact?

Lin Hainan remembered the speculation that Feng Jianfei said about the relationship between the Interstellar Development Group and the Oriental Artifact when he was watching the competition of the No. 12 competition group. Lin Hainan looked at Feng Jianfei, only to see that Feng Jianfei also touched his chin and pondered.

"What do you think?" Lin Hainan asked Feng Jianfei, Xu Jin went to shoot and collect evidence, Lin Hainan and Feng Jianfei didn't care about him.

"I don't know, I think it's a bit messy. It is highly likely that the Eastern Artifact belongs to the Interstellar Development Group. Therefore, the powerful force behind the development of the Star Development Group that has been holding us back in the past few years is actually reasonable, after all, the human, material and financial resources of the Star Development Group are very strong. Feng Jianfei analyzed, but felt a little powerless, this set of inferences always felt that something was missing, so many years of mediation with the Oriental Artifact, and dealing with the Interstellar Development Group, Feng Jianfei has rich experience, but for these two organizations, it is obviously a completely different style of acting, even if there is a number of evidence of contact between the two parties, but Feng Jianfei has always felt that these are two separate organizations. "But I still think it's a little weird. After hesitation, Feng Jianfei still truthfully stated his opinion.

"Hmm. I think so too. Lin Hainan nodded, "I have a guess, it's just my intuition, it may be a bit outrageous." ”
