Chapter 39: Flashback 3 – Things We Don't Know
(Third person) (not a spoiler)
At night in Dongning City, the lights are on, and the lights are lit up one after another in various hotels near dusk. Everyone is staggered, and the beer skewers can't be gagged. It is only at this time that people who have been busy all day really feel the short-term joy.
"Waiter! One more serving of rice. Ma Dong waved his hand at the people over there, ate the food on the scientific research ship for a year, and ate compressed biscuits for a few days, and now Ma Dong felt that everything was delicious. It's like being used to eating shredded pork fried cakes and not knowing what the concept of the Manchu and Han full banquets is.
"Okay."
Lan Ke'er was actually in no mood to eat, they had just escaped from the terrible seabed more than ten hours ago, and they had finally set foot on the land of their motherland a few hours ago. All this is too unreal, a person suddenly experiences a series of terrible things and suddenly returns to the ordinary, no matter who will have a feeling of unrealness!
As a girl growing up in a new era, she, like most people, may have seen some unknown dangers on TV, and the world is incomprehensible. But she has little idea about it, at most she feels the greatness and wonder of the earth through the screen.
But when she really faced this, she could only feel fear. Sixth Sense—He felt that it wasn't that simple, and she didn't know what it was.
"Your rice." The waiter's voice interrupted Lan Keer's thoughts.
"Okay, thanks, let's put it here."
"This gentleman, you're Dr. Ma Dong, right?" The waiter asked.
Ma Dong was very surprised and said, "Yes, how can you ......?"
"Oh! I've seen you on TV, aren't you working on a research ship? Can you tell us what you found? Can I blow it with others? ”
Perhaps after a few glasses of wine, he completely forgot about the secrecy of the expedition. Lan Ke'er was too late to stop it.
"Hey, what a great discovery, we saw a big maelstrom, and then we found a grandiose—"
Everything happened too fast, and Lan Keer and Ma Dong didn't have time to react. "Bang" Ma Dong didn't finish his words, and planted himself in the rice in front of him, making his face full of oil.
Some of the people around them looked at them and laughed, and some even hid and left. Lan Ke'er's eyes were wide open, everything that happened just now was ...... It can't be described as terrifying. At that moment, she felt her tongue tingle, and she couldn't move her neck. There was also a force pressing her neck and trying to press her down.
A flash of lightning struck down in the sky, and she felt something peeking at her around him for no apparent reason, which made her uneasy.
Lan Ke'er raised her head and saw Ma Dong looking up from the meal, his eyes were also full of horror, she knew that the two of them had suffered the same thing.
"Ahh It's okay! Ma Dong saw the people around him looking at them with a neurotic expression, and hurriedly played a round, "I was too excited and excited just now, and I was careless." ”

The next morning
"Ke'er, what are you going to do so early today?" Mother asked.
"Mom, you can eat, I'll go to the office for something." Lan Keer grabbed the bag with one hand and hurried out.
"Hey! This kid is fascinated by science every day, and the young man from the Du family who introduced him last time is so good, and I don't know if people are willing to follow her now. ”

"Dr. Ma, this is what you handed me when you came back from your year's work?" The leader slapped the report in front of him at once.
Ma Dong was confused, and the report was written on the ship, mainly introducing the underwater structure of the Mirror Palace. He thinks that compared to this, other pediatric things are scum, and they don't even need to be written.
"There's a big blank space up there!" The leader roared, "The top is in a hurry to let us hand in this report, but you made this one for me, do you think it's April Fool's Day?" ”
Ma Dong was extremely surprised now, if it weren't for the leader's face that didn't look like he was pretending, he would have thought it was April Fool's Day today. But when he picked up the report, he was stunned by what he saw.
There was a large blank space in the report, and he clearly remembered that he had written it all over, and added a few more sheets of paper. How could he not have finished writing what he stayed up late last night? If the leader doesn't believe what he says, then he thinks it's excusable, no, it's completely normal. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed it. But there was nothing up there, and he couldn't believe it, and he couldn't believe it.
Of course, in the eyes of the leader, he was at a loss, so he didn't say anything, and after appreciating the leader's storm, he came back in disgrace.
Walking down the street, Ma Dong picked up his mobile phone and sent a text message to a person, and then walked towards the research institute.

"What? What happened? Lan Ke'er opened the door of a room and saw Ma Dong sitting inside, thinking that it was not a good thing, since the incident last night, she didn't think anything was impossible.
Ma Dong told Lan Ke'er about the morning with a calm face, and Lan Ke'er's face changed when she heard it. For a moment the whole room fell silent, and only the sound of the air conditioner could be heard.
"What do you think?" Ma Dong broke the silence and asked.
"Doctor, do you remember...... Hmm, what did Du Hao tell us? It's about that curse. ”
After discussing for nearly half a day, Lan Keer and Ma Dong agreed that the curse was real. When you spy on the heavens and try to reveal this whole secret, you will be punished by a curse. They don't know what the punishment will be, whether it will die or not.
"Then we're left with a solution." Ma Dong looked at Lan Keer and said.
"...... you mean"

"Sure? How's it going? Lan Keer feels like a family member of an emergency patient, wanting to know but not wanting to know the answer. Can't you really guess what it is? No way. It's just that there is still a certain amount of luck.
"Yes, based on when the rock was cast and when the mirror fragments were cast, about a thousand years ago." Ma Dong said, "It was the time of the Tang Dynasty. There are also the geological structures of the seabed brought back by the research ship, which are indeed what we suspected. ”
"Atlantis!" Ma Dong let out a final sigh and sat down in his chair.
Lan Keer said: "We have to go back and see, I don't know what Du Hao is doing, but I must help him." ”
"Go back? Ke'er, you can't be crazy, right? No matter how we go back, the leaders will not believe our words. Moreover, how do you know what Du Hao is doing? In case ......"
"Du Hao won't be like that, I know him, he is very kind. We can look to his father, who runs a shipping company and is very rich. ”
Ma Dong watched Lan Ke'er run out happily, so he followed helplessly, and said casually: "Gentleman." ”

"This is ......" Lan Keer saw the plaque on the Dushi Group Building in front of him, and it was written Sycamore Co., Ltd., "What happened?" ”
Lan Keer didn't know what to say, what had happened in the past few years since she left? What happened to the Du family?
On the way to her scientific expedition, she heard about the disappearance of Du Hao's grandfather, and accidentally met Du Hao himself in the Mirror Palace, and it seemed that he was still hijacked by someone. Now I still see the Du family ship falling, so many things happened to one family, this ......
"Hey, hello, isn't this the Dushi Group?" Ma Dong grabbed a passer-by and asked.
"You two aren't natives of Dongning City, are you?" Passers-by said, "I don't even know about this kind of major event in Dongning City." ”
Lan Ke'er hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, we are from Wujiang City, and we are going to join a relative who works in the Du Group. You know...... What's going on here? ”
"Hey, it's that Mr. Du, Du Qiang is speculative! Collecting the people's hard-earned money and not doing the right thing, such a person is the scourge of the country, and it is very ...... to be pulled out and shot"
"Shut up!" Lan Ke'er shouted, she couldn't stand it, Uncle Du was not that kind of person, this was impossible, she didn't believe that such a thing would happen. Everything is too unreal.
Ma Dong saw that the other party's expression was wrong, and quickly said, "I'm sorry, sir, my sister is not reasonable, don't worry about her." ”
"Okay!" The man grimaced, and walked away without looking back.
"Doctor, why didn't you let me speak just now? Uncle Du is not that kind of person! This is impossible, if Du Hao comes back, he will definitely not be able to stand it. Woowoo"
Ma Dong couldn't help it, seeing Lan Ke'er crying for ten minutes, he had to comfort her. Ma Dong touched his pocket and was about to take a piece of paper to Lan Ke'er, but he came across something that shouldn't be with him.
"Huh?" It's a card.
Ma Dong took it out, it was a business card of the Dushi Group, with the address in front of it, and some things that I don't know what they were. He flipped the card over and saw what he should have seen, a skewed but delicate sentence: Be brave enough, come to the optical store on Huanghe Road, and be careful of being watched.
