Gathering everyone together, I laid out the plan of the boat in the middle, pointed to the picture and said to the people, "There are a lot of nets at the stern of the boat, and we can use them to set a trap in these two places." I said as I pointed it out on the map.

"We turned on the lights on the first floor and led the horseshoe crab into this circular passage. Then we use the net to pinch it back and forth, wrapping it up. The net is very flexible and should be able to suppress its strength, so we try to wrap it around it with the net, and when it is incapacitated, we throw it out into the sea. ”

I changed my voice and said, "But now we have something to solve first, someone has to close the light gates on the ground floor and the second floor first." Otherwise, once all the lights are on, this guy is very sensitive to light, and I'm afraid he will destroy all the lighting equipment. ”

"Let me go!" At this time, An Beimo directly asked to perform this task.

I shook my head and said to her, "No, you and the beast, the doctor, and Kobayashi Lan will go to the predetermined place to set the trap in pairs. Suzumi Iwasaki doesn't understand the language, so she stays here to guard the control room while also taking care of Haruko Sakai. As for closing the light gate, leave it to me. ”

An Beimo said: "I think you should be responsible for the trap, once this horseshoe crab enters the trap, it must take someone with strength to complete the net, otherwise it will be easy for the horseshoe crab to escape." And the only ones we have the most power here are you and Shen Hao. So I should go and close the gates. ”

I objected and said, "No! One person has to go to two cabins, or without lighting, it's too dangerous and I have to go! ”

An Beimo was very unimpressed by my words, and asked me rhetorically: "What? Are you afraid that I won't be able to complete the task? ”

I knew that An Beimo was asking knowingly, so he said in a deep voice: "There is no need to fight about this matter, obey the order!" ”

An Beimo was obviously a little angry, she looked at me coldly with a gloomy face. I pretended not to see it, I don't feel at ease with anyone going to this incident, and I can't push the most dangerous task to my teammates.

Seeing that An Beimo and I were a little stiff in order to grab the task, Shen Hao whispered to me: "Black Eagle, do you see if you give me a chance, let me go!" ”

"Shut up!" I retorted, "I repeat, this is not a consultation with you, this is an order!" ”

This is the Seven Stars who said, "Black Hawk! I think what the goddess said makes sense, the key is to collect the net and catch the horseshoe crab, and we must have a guarantee in strength, so you and the beast cannot be missing in this link. ”

Seeing that I was about to speak, Qixing hurriedly spoke again: "And I don't feel appropriate for the goddess to go, because only her sniper rifle has the most powerful firepower, and it may be able to suppress the horseshoe crab at a critical moment." ”

We all looked at Qixing, and her words were very objective and reasonable, so I couldn't refute them for a while.

"So I think," Qixing said flatly, "the most suitable person should be me!" Because I have mobile tactics, I have an advantage over you in attack and defense against the horseshoe crabs. ”

I was slightly stunned, I didn't expect Seven Stars to say that. Even though she was right, I couldn't help but want to refuse.

Seven Stars said to me again, "Black Hawk! Now is not the time for machismo. I know you're worried about us, but we're a team, and any task should be done by the best person, not emotionally. Are you right? ”

I was speechless at Qixing's words, and I couldn't say anything to refuse.

After thinking for a few seconds, I glanced at everyone and saw that there were no more objections. had to say to Qixing: "Then you must be extra careful, retreat immediately when you find out about the situation, and don't force yourself!" ”

Qixing smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry! I'm measured. With that, she began to unload her unnecessary equipment, including her outer clothes, leaving only weapons and communication equipment.

The floor plan shows that the switches on the second and third floors are at opposite ends of the two-level channel.

The three-story mechanical cabin is fine, and the vertical ladder is at the entrance. The second floor is the cabin where we live, and it is also the place where I fought with the horseshoe crab ancestor just now. The switch is at the end of the walkway, and to close it, you have to go through a narrow, unobstructed corridor, and that's where I worry the most.

Now we don't know where the horseshoe crab has gone, maybe it's hiding somewhere. If you encounter it alone in a narrow passage, it is extremely dangerous.

The first step is to go to the stern of the boat to get the fishing nets, the second step is to set the traps, the third step is to close the electric gates on the lower two floors, and then turn on the lights on the first floor to attract horseshoe crabs. The last step is to wait for the horseshoe crab ancestor to enter the game and catch it.

In the past, the horseshoe crab always attacked the lone person, so we acted collectively, and it should not dare to show up to attack.

The first and second steps went very smoothly, and after getting the fishing net, I took An Beimo and Shen Hao and Xiao Lin Lan with them, all of whom were ambushed in the designated position.

At this time, Qixing whispered to us: "I'm going to pull the gate below, you guys be careful!" I whispered back, "Be careful! Notify us immediately if there is any danger. ”

Seven Stars agreed, raised his gun, lowered his steps, and gradually disappeared into the darkness.

We hid in the corner, waiting for news from the Seven Stars, and everyone was sweating for the Seven Stars.

In order not to attract the attention of the horseshoe crab ancestor, the Seven Stars completely operated in the dark. After my eyes adjusted to the darkness, I could vaguely see the scene around me. I think if the Seven Stars slows down a little, they can still achieve the effect of hiding their whereabouts.

In the next few minutes, each of us should have had a hard time. In addition to worrying about the Seven Stars, I also muttered about the chances of the plan's success.

After about five or six minutes, Qixing's deep voice came from the earphones: "The electric switch of the third-floor mechanical cabin is closed!" ”

I'm secretly happy that the Seven Stars are going well. I hurriedly replied, "Did you find anything unusual on the way?" ”

Qixing almost lowered his voice to the lowest, "No abnormality!" She replied.

I instructed: "Now we have no situation here, I think the horseshoe crab ancestor is likely to be on the second floor, you must be careful when you get there!" ”

Qixing didn't speak, just hummed softly.

After that, there was a long silence in the headphones, and I didn't hear any more news from Seven Stars for more than ten minutes. I kept looking at my watch, a little impatient.

After a few more minutes, suddenly there was a loud "boom" in the earphones. The voice came so suddenly that it startled all of us.

"Doctor! Doctor! What's going on there? I cried out urgently.

Seven Stars' hurried tone came from the headphones: "I've been discovered!" It hid in the hole in that cabin, and it burst out of it as I passed. ”

"You wait for me, I'll support you!" I'm about to get up from my hidden corner.

"No, you don't! I'm fine. Now you're running in the direction of the electric switch, you stay where you are, waiting for my news. Seven Stars spoke with the sound of rapid breathing.

But how dare I let Qixing face the pursuit of the horseshoe crab ancestor alone, I still have to hand over the fishing net to An Beimo, and I want to support her.

An Beimo didn't answer, but pressed my shoulder, and said to me in a very firm tone: "You have to believe her!" ”

That being said, it's not that easy to do. I stared at An Beimo, and suddenly felt that she would say this at this time, a little indifferent.

An Beimo guessed what I was thinking, and she said to me: "The doctor's mobile fighting skills are highlighted by speed and reflexes, which are abilities that none of us can match. She prevents you from saying that the situation is still within her control, and that you are causing her trouble if you go. ”

The so-called concern is chaos! Since I became the captain of this team, I have indeed begun to look ahead and backward when encountering problems, and I have suffered both gains and losses, which is not at all like I was able to make accurate judgments calmly before. I don't know what An Beimo said, but I don't dare to take this risk in my heart.

At this moment, Qixing's hurried voice came: "The second-floor electric gate was closed by me, I am going to come up with it now, you guys are ready!" ”

I hurriedly put away my thoughts, grabbed the fishing net with An Beimo, and asked Qixing, "Where are you?" ”

Seven Stars' gasping was already short, and she replied, "Go up the stairs!" ”

I immediately patted An Beimo on the shoulder, and An Beimo immediately gave Iwasaki Suzumi an order in Japanese to turn on the lights.

"Bang" The lights in the cabin of the entire floor instantly lit up.

After staying in the dark for a long time, the sudden light made me a little uncomfortable, and my eyes were bursting with flowers.

But fortunately, it was relieved in a few seconds, and immediately after that, I saw Seven Stars running up, rushing towards us.

And behind her, the swarthy horseshoe crab ancestor quickly pursued. It was faster than Sevenstar, and every time it approached Sevenstar's back, it jumped up and crashed into Sevenstar's back.

But Qixing didn't even know how to head it, his feet slid to the side, his speed did not decrease, and he easily dodged it, two or three times in a row.

The horseshoe crab ancestor was obviously teased by the Seven Stars and went wild, and it chased forward like crazy. There is always a distance of less than a meter between the two before and after, and the tension level makes me worry.

Seeing that Qixing was already approaching us, I whispered over the walkie-talkie: "Beast, let's let the doctor and the horseshoe crab ancestor go here first, you have to leave a way out for the doctor, and we will chase it from behind." When the doctor got out of the trap, we tried to wrap the horseshoe crab with a net at the same time. ”

"Roger!" Shen Hao replied immediately.

As he was about to pass us, the horseshoe crab ancestor, who was suddenly in hot pursuit, suddenly stopped, and was less than five meters away from my hiding place.

An Beimo and I were both stunned for a moment, could it be that we were discovered?

Qixing rushed past us at this time, but she also noticed that the horseshoe crab ancestor who had been chasing and fighting suddenly stopped chasing, and out of curiosity, she also stopped.

An Beimo and I hid in the corner and didn't dare to move, for fear that we would be accidentally discovered and cause the whole plan to fail.

But I'm very curious, why did the horseshoe crab stop when he was about to get into the trap? Could it have realized that there was danger ahead?

It's just a sea beast, and if it lives longer, it shouldn't be so smart as to defy the sky. I'm sure it's well hidden, and nothing is going to show any flaws, but I can't figure out why it stopped.

Seven Stars glanced at us, and she didn't know why. In order to try to bring the Horseshoe Crab Ancestor into the encirclement, Qixing took a few steps back with courage.

This is an extremely risky act, and Qixing is using himself as bait to lure the horseshoe crab ancestor to take the bait. I wanted to stop Seven Stars, but I was afraid that the horseshoe crab would find out, so I kept signaling her with my eyes not to lean over.
