Snowstorms.

In the polar regions, the humidity is extremely low, snowfall is extremely rare, and if you see snow, there is basically only one possibility: wind blowing snow.

An international expedition entered the Antarctic for the first time in a century. In the year that Windsor the Great left public view, Miss Faraday, who missed him, was later designated as the first year of the United Nations calendar.

This year marks the 101st year of the United Nations calendar.

The past is like smoke, and it is like a qiē vitality blown away by the wind and snow.

The international expedition* consisted of 12 squads from NATO's United States of America, Great Britain, Prussia, Russia, the Qing Dynasty, and Japan, and the United Nations of Germany, Italy, the Soviet Union, the Chinese Federation, Korea, and India.

Each team has five people, 60 in this case, and three PAMP agents.

Now the rule of the United Nations is still dominant in the world pattern, but due to historical relations, NATO members are relatively close to each other, so it is natural that they are closer, and the core members of the United Nations are relatively close.

Neither of these groups was with the policemen who were left behind, so the three of them were self-contained.

The three police officers claimed to be Interpol, but they were all New Zealanders, one white, one Maori (Aboriginal New Zealanders), and one Chinese. The reason why they appeared in the expedition was because they actually found the direction of the South Pole, and they came with the first expedition to enter the South Pole in a hundred years.

There are always a few eye-catching ladies accompanying the three groups of people, but the three policemen are a female boss, and it is the big Chinese beauty. This female boss is like the snow of Antarctica, it is very difficult to approach, and the two lower levels say that they are talking or something, and they don't even dare to take a breath of air.

The female boss suddenly asked softly: "The ban on Antarctic expeditions was lifted 15 years ago, why is there only the first scientific expedition team now?" ”

The white man immediately replied respectfully: "Probably out of respect for the Great of Windsor, legend has it that the burial place of the Great Windsor is somewhere in Antarctica." ”

In order to show their ability, the Maori subordinates also provided their own opinions: "The Windsor Emperor was attacked by the Assassins before he retired, the Emperor was fine, but the Assassins were cut by the laser net instead, that scene was too scary, it should be that everyone is afraid that the Emperor has a similar mechanism near his cemetery." Although the ban on Antarctic exploration has been lifted, the Security Council still does not advise everyone to go to Antarctica to avoid danger. ”

The female boss snorted coldly and said, "As long as the wind is released and it is said that there is Windsor's preservation in Antarctica, I am afraid that countless treasure hunting teams will go to Antarctica overnight." ”

The white man praised: "Xi is right, this rumor is very powerful, think back then, the Windsor consortium sat on half of the world's GDP, what a lot of wealth, think about it to make those adventurers who want to get rich crazy." He called the Chinese name of the female boss "Xi", hoping to set a little close. The Chinese name of the female boss is "Yuan Xi".

Yuan Xiyun said lightly: "Rumors? Not necessarily. As soon as Windsor leaves, how many years has human science and technology regressed, I believe that Windsor has a large number of scientific and technological mysteries in his hands, and such treasures are priceless for both the country and the enterprise, and it is very likely that they can really be found in the cemetery of Windsor. However, I'm not a grave robber, I'm only interested in catching the murderer. ”

The white man's subordinates immediately slapped their horses: "Miss Yuan worked so hard, that's why she was promoted so quickly, she seems to be younger than me......"

The Maori despised the blatant and courteous style of the white man, and snorted inwardly and fell silent. He was good, our Officer Yuan had no intention of making friends with these two temporary partners, one whom she called Mr. M, representing Maori, and the other Mr. W, representing the white man, ignoring their protests and calling them M and W all the time.

The three people in the snow RV parked in the storm were talking about it one after another, and what they heard in their ears was the never-ending sound of the blizzard, if it was only the three of them, it would be quite terrifying in this ice and snow.

The deterioration of technology is really severe, communication satellites and GPS are in disrepair, and the expedition can only communicate and advance with the outside world for only three hours a day, which is now hindered by a blizzard. And the goal they are heading towards is a secret base that aerial scouts believe to be an abandoned Windsor Emperor.

This secret base made the outside world curious, and aerial photography found that its windmill had stopped turning, so it was thought to be abandoned. It is far away from the human city, the range of the helicopter cannot be reached, and the airborne people cannot return to the fixed-wing aircraft if they go down, so they can only send ground expeditions.

The Emperor of Windsor was very divine back then, and now after 100 years, it has become more divine, and the people of the earth believe that there are treasures in the tomb of the Emperor, so these 12 expedition teams are actually a symbol of the international status of 12 countries, 6 of the United Nations and 6 of the Entente, which is just balanced, and it is also a symbol of the current balance of power between the United Nations and NATO.

In the dead of night, finally, the wind gradually stopped, and such benefits woke Yuan Xi up from his slumber. The so-called "night" is man-made, just close the doors and windows, because it is the summer of Antarctica, and the sun will not set at all.

Yuan Xi felt unusually awake, looking at the time, it was three o'clock in the morning, and she couldn't sleep anyway, so she simply got up and went outside to take a look. There are a lot of people who seem to have a chaotic biological clock like her, and a total of more than a dozen people from the international expedition team got out of the polar expedition RV and gathered and chatted a hundred meters away from the camp.

Yuan Xi doesn't like to gather people, but in order to get information from these expedition members, she naturally moved closer to the gathering place and listened to what the scientist-led expedition members were saying.

"Aha, the big beauty is here!" Some of the more bold male scientists greeted her warmly in front of her.

Yuan Xi didn't pay attention to anyone as usual, slowly walked through the crowd, all the way, if she didn't encounter any interesting topics, she would walk to the edge of the crowd and enjoy the loneliness quietly.

Along the way, she only heard people talking about the ghost weather in Antarctica, which was scary, not at all like a topic that scientists should have, and most of the people in this group were not scientists at all, as rumored, but at least half of them were soldiers, because she was also a soldier and had a keen sense of her kind.

"Do you know how thick the ice is in Antarctica?" A nice man's voice came near.

is another guy who picks up a conversation, Yuan Xi still has no reaction, and most people will mumble away in embarrassment.

This man has the demeanor of a scientist, and he was not defeated by Miss Yuan's indifference at all, and continued to say confidently: "The lowest altitude among the five continents in the world is Europe, 300 meters, and the highest is Asia, which has the Himalayas and the Karakoram Mountains, at 950 meters. And the continent beneath our feet is 2,350 meters above sea level.

However, if the ice is removed from Antarctica, the altitude is only 410 meters, which shows that the average thickness of the ice under our feet is close to 2,000 meters! ”

It is indeed amazing, however, Yuan Xi has long known that the Antarctic ice is very thick, what is the difference between 2000 meters and 200 meters for her? So, she continues to be indifferent to the pick-up.

The man was still not defeated, it was not easy, he continued to try to impress the heart of the first beauty in Antarctica: "The base in Windsor is 100 years old, if it is really abandoned, at least for a few decades, it should be frozen into popsicles, but I see from the aerial video, it is almost intact, so I disagree with others that it is an abandoned base, those windmills should be in good operation, but I don't know why the aerial photography happened to stop during that time." ”

Centennial base or alive? This information was a bit interesting, Yuan Xi was finally moved by this interesting opinion, glanced at the male scientist next to him, and asked simply: "Italians?" ”

The scientist nodded happily, very proud, he had heard that the expedition followed up three New Zealand policemen, one of whom was a very cold but very seductive oriental beauty, no one could talk to her, he was off to a good start.

The Italian scientist, who was in his forties, immediately stretched out his right hand and introduced himself: "What a smart girl! My name is Davila, Marco Davila, geologist. Can I know your name? ”

Both Oriental and New Zealand cultures are relatively conservative, Yuan Xi ignored the outstretched right hand of the enthusiastic Italian scientist, and asked indifferently as if he hadn't seen it: "Xi Yuan." We suspect that the perpetrators of the Invercargill serial murders may have lived in Antarctica, and you may be working well at the secret base left behind by Windsor, which is exactly what we suspected. ”

Davila laughed, not caring about the rejection of the handshake, and said, "Impossible." Because the living conditions in Antarctica are too harsh, it is the only uninhabited continent, even if you can escape the pursuit of the police, it is impossible to live in Antarctica, the cost is too high and illogical. ”

Yuan Xi was inconvenient to reveal the details of the case, so he only smiled slightly and said, "Compared to it, the Windsor secret base has not been abandoned for a hundred years, right?" Anyway, thank you, your statement boosted my confidence, and we soon learned what the mystery of this base really is. ”

The beauty smiled, as if the altitude of the South Pole had been reduced from 2,350 meters to 410 meters, and Davila was stunned.

Davila, who thought that he had a good state of mind, suddenly felt lost, and was stunned for a long time when he looked at the sun and the glow that never sets, and suddenly his eyes were dazzled, and he saw something flying in the sky in the distance, flashing and disappearing. Davila gathered her feelings and followed the suspicious clues.

After chasing for a long time, and just as he was about to give up, the thing flashed again, and this time, Davila, who was highly focused, immediately recognized it as a dragonfly, which shocked him. Dragonflies are predators that cannot appear in Antarctica, generally eat mosquitoes, bees, and sometimes butterflies, these insects are impossible to appear in Antarctica, without food, where do dragonflies come from?

At this time, he hated that he didn't have a camera with him, and if he became the first scientist to discover dragonflies in Antarctica, how famous would he be
