Chapter 87: Homeland

The sound of a huge engine roared. When the plane landed, the slight shaking finally woke Chen Xiao from his contemplation.

"We're here."

Lao Tian beside him smiled slightly and cast a comforting look.

Chen Xiao looked out the window at the airport......

This is the airport in Sydney, Australia, in the southern hemisphere.

It took less than four days to get all the passports, visas, etc. in order. Accompanied by Lao Tian, Chen Xiao came to Sydney, Australia, a country in the southern hemisphere.

Walking out of Sydney Airport, Chen Xiao turned a blind eye to the endless stream of blonde and blue-eyed Caucasians around her - in fact, Chen Xiao's mood has been a little low for a while now, and she has gradually spoken less.

Before leaving with Lao Tian this time, after he returned home, he locked himself in his room alone, dug out all the relics of his parents, and looked at them for a day and a night, as if he was trying to find clues from his parents' relics.

“…… Hopefully, he will live under the blue sky. ”

In that book, the last words of his parents flashed repeatedly in front of Chen Xiao's eyes in the past few days. Some things that he would not believe in the past seem to have revealed more and more doubts in his heart in the past few days.

I...... Really?

Although it was the first time in my life to come to Sydney, an internationally famous tourist city. However, Chen Xiao was not in the mood to visit. Naturally, the Sydney Bridge is not in the mood to go sightseeing, and the Sydney Opera House, let alone go to see it.

Even if it's coming out of the airport. When sitting in the taxi, Chen Xiao also sat in the back seat, tilted his head, and looked out the window in a daze - obviously, his eyes were not focused.

After a day in a hotel in Sydney, the service agency arrived.

The person who came was Chen Xiao's old acquaintance: Red Seven.

When Hong Qi walked into the room, Chen Xiao immediately stood up from the chair and looked at the woman with a smile. After all. This woman was the first to show her abilities in front of her eyes!

Chen Xiao will not forget that it was this Red Seven, who threw a car directly out with a scream - and almost killed himself too!

"Long time no see, ladLooks like you're in a good mood. I heard that you did a good job with them in Laotian. ”

Hong Qi smiled very easily. She was still wearing a red sè suit, but the style of the clothes was different from what she had seen before, but - could it be that all this woman's clothes were red sè?

Chen Xiao was hesitating how to say hello, but Hong Qi had already walked over and hugged Chen Xiao warmly: "Welcome to Sydney!" ”

Chen Xiao was hugged by her, and seemed a little uncomfortable, after all, Hongqi was a beautiful woman, although she was much older than herself. But suddenly being hugged by such a woman, Chen Xiao's face was still red.

"Haha." Hong Qi smiled and looked at Chen Xiao: "It seems that your mood is a little low, I know that you have a stomach full of questions now, but I can't answer these questions - naturally someone can give you a satisfactory answer." ”

"Alright, Red Seven." Lao Tian smiled: "He's definitely not in a good mood, don't talk about this." ”

As soon as he took out a box of cigarettes, he was snatched away by Hong Qi, and he still pinched the cigarette box and said with a smile: "Uncle Tian, I remember that you have quit smoking - and more than once!" ”

"I've broken my vows more than once. It doesn't matter if it's one more time. Lao Tian suddenly laughed, his hand seemed to shake, and the cigarette returned to his hand.

Hong Qi glanced at Chen Xiao and muttered for a while: "You guys rest for a while." I've arranged it. There will be a boat to take you out to sea tonight. ”

"Out to sea?" Chen Xiao was stunned for a moment: "The headquarters of the service club is not in Sydney?" ”

"Did we tell you we're based in Sydney?" Hong Qi glanced at Lao Tian, and then looked at Chen Xiao: "The headquarters is not here." You just have to listen to me...... Moreover, there can be many people in the headquarters waiting to meet you, a wizard with special abilities. ”

Wizard...... Hmph, it's more appropriate to say it's a "monster".

Seeing Hong Qi this time, she still always had that faint smile on her face. But even when this woman was smiling, her eyes didn't have much warmth. Probably because of this feeling, Chen Xiao didn't seem to have a very good impression of Red Qidi. **

At night. Hong Qi personally drove the car and took the two to a private yacht marina. There is a yacht here that is already ready to go to sea.

Red Seven did not accompany them on board. Just sent them to the side of the ship.

"Isn't she with us?" Chen Xiao asked Lao Tian.

Lao Tian smiled slightly: "Well, the F1 Australian station is about to open recently." This girl has her own things to do. ”

f1? Australia?

Chen Xiao didn't understand, but she didn't ask.

There are only two people who go to sea on a yacht, Chen Xiao and Lao Tian, and there is no one else on board.

Fresh water and food are well stocked.

Lao Tian, a guy born in the Ming Dynasty in ancient China, actually can drive a yacht. The two sailed all the way east, sailing at sea for a day and a night.

Chen Xiao's geographical knowledge told him that all the way to the east was the South Pacific.

"The location of the headquarters is an island, and geographically, it should theoretically be located within Australia's territorial waters. But ......" Lao Tian said this, and smiled mysteriously: "However, the world map of any country in the world, or the official map or tourist map of all places in Australia, will never find the existence of this island!" ”

Chen Xiao raised her eyebrows.

Lao Tian pointed to a blank dot on the nautical map.

"It's in this location. It's our home."

"Home?"

"yes, that's the name of headquarters." When Lao Tian mentioned "homeland", his eyes were a little complicated.

According to the introduction of the old field.

This island is located at the junction of Australia's eastern territorial waters and the high seas of the South Pacific Ocean - this island is called "home". It is the headquarters of the service cooperative.

It is an island with an area of about two square kilometers! But the island doesn't exist on any official map!

That is, for the vast majority of people in this world, this island is a place that "does not exist"!

"You know, the service has a long history, more than 200 years of history...... Hmph, once upon a time Australia was still a British colony, and very early in that year, the ISS bought the island from the British. It's a stealthy deal. Because it is absolutely impossible for Britain to admit to the outside world that there is such a thing: the British Empire sold its own land? That's the biggest scandal. ”

Lao Tian smiled weirdly: "You know that the service agency bought this island from the British zhèngfǔ back then. How much did it cost? ”

Chen Xiao thought for a moment...... An island of more than 2,000 square kilometers is equivalent to a medium-sized city. Such a large piece of land should be worth a lot of money...... Not to mention buying land from a country!

"A pound." Lao Tian smiled and said the answer.

Chen Xiao's eyes finally widened: "...... One, one pound?! ”

"How much do you think it would be?" Lao Tian smiled easily: "Chen Xiao, a supernatural organization like the Service Society, although the people who are in the trench do not know about our existence, but for the high-level people in some countries, they are not blind and deaf!" Since two centuries ago, organizations like ours have had all kinds of contacts with some countries, and there have been frictions and struggles. There is also cooperation. However, with the changes of the times, a situation of non-interference has basically formed today. They acquiesce to our existence - as long as we don't interfere with the normal functioning of the world. ”

After a pause, Lao Tian smiled faintly: "Even if they don't want to acquiesce, they can't do it." An A-level powerhouse can become the world's most fearsome warrior or a king of destruction if he wants to. No country wants to provoke a large supernatural organization lightly. ”

"So...... Two centuries ago, the British gave you this island of more than 2,000 square kilometers for a pound sterling? ”

"Well, it's a send." Lao Tian shrugged his shoulders: "But the British zhèngfǔ is very good-looking, I heard that the transaction back then was very interesting, they had to give us such a place, but they needed a good excuse internally." Eventually, the King of England was obliged to write a high-secret decree canonizing the head of the local service society as a nobleman, and in such a way giving him his homeland island as a private fiefdom. ”

After a pause, Lao Tian continued: "But. Of course, there is absolutely no record of this canonization decree in the public literature, and it exists only in the archives of highly classified documents of the British crown and the British zhèngfǔ. ”

At this moment, after a night of sailing, the sky has dawned. Lao Tian checked the instrument and confirmed the direction of the ship.

"Well, it's almost time to enter the realm of the homeland."

After saying that, he suddenly ran to the back cabin and flipped over from behind for a while. Finally, a metal instrument was turned out.

This thing looks a little tattered. It's even a little rusty. It looks like a small television satellite device, an umbrella-shaped satellite that is upside down like a pan. Underneath is a circular pedestal. Chen Xiao clearly saw that it was probably because of the overlook of the humid air on the sea, and there were rust stains on it.

Lao Tian carefully put this thing on the bow of the boat, then pressed a button on it, and soon, a display light under the satellite turned on, first a red light, and then quickly jumped to a green light.

"Alright. The signal was on and we were able to enter our homes. Lao Tian's expression was also a little happy: "I haven't come back here." ”

"Uh...... What is this? Chen Xiao couldn't help but ask.

"This? What's this...... It's an ID card for entering the door. Lao Tian said lightly: "After all, it is the headquarters of the service agency, can any boat be close to the home island?" Only when this thing is turned on and the signal is connected to the homeland will it be recognized as its own person and can smoothly enter the sea area of the homeland. ”

"What if...... What if you don't have this device? Chen Xiao couldn't help but ask.

Lao Tian seemed to have a somewhat disdainful tone: "Don't worry, if there is no such thing...... Hmph, even if the U.S. military sends an aircraft carrier group, don't even think about getting close to our homeland! ”
