Even though the stone here seemed to have lost its spirituality, Su Huilan picked up a piece as a sample and stuffed it into Aoki's backpack.

The crow on his head complained, "If there is radiation, will we mutate?" ”

Su Huilan smiled: "The appearance of the two of you has already been mutated, how else can you mutate?" ”

However, she still paid attention to it and asked Petru: "Do you have a radioactivity detector on board?" ”

Petru shook his head: "What do you want that thing for?" I don't engage in nuclear weapons! ”

Su Huilan said: "Then it's better to go back to the base, the rescue center has equipment, and it's more reassuring to test it." It's best to ask them for one, and you might be able to use it on the ghost island you mentioned. ”

Aoki doesn't care. Although he had never really been exposed to very radioactive substances, he always felt that this kind of thing should be perceptible to a mentally astute person, because the slight changes in the physical state of the body must have a certain manifestation in the spirit, for example, he once felt some strange mental fluctuations in the corridor of the radiology department of the hospital.

At the time, he didn't know that it was caused by radiation, but it was only after seeing Tabb on the island of Tubuai that he remembered this feeling again. However, he didn't understand that if even the radiation dose in the radiology department had a serious impact on the body, so it had to be isolated with lead walls and lead glass, then how radioactive was the spiritual barrier as large as Tab? Why did people build such a dangerous thing at that time?

Moreover, these stones always gave him a sense of reassurance and did not feel dangerous.

Petru was of a similar opinion, saying that wasting time and fuel for a detector was not worth it. He said, "I hide there every day, if there was strong radiation in Tabu, would I have become a Hulk long ago?" ”

"If you want to change, you will also become a red giant!" Su Huilan said angrily: "I think you're worried that your red beard will be recognized, right?" ”

Petru shrugged noncommittally, and finally agreed with Su Huilan.

However, when they returned to Ahure Bay, the last thing Petru wanted to see happened.

Inside Ahure Bay, there is an American warship docked there.

Petru stubbornly sailed past the warship, but fortunately, ships of the same tonnage did not have to stop together, and they docked about 700 meters away from the warship.

When he arrives at the camp of the rescue center, Aoki meets an acquaintance he doesn't expect at all - Natsu Xiaoxiao.

Xia Xiaoxiao's face was a little pale, probably because of the sea breeze blowing too much, as if it had been smeared with fine sea salt. Her hair is slightly messy and her lips are slightly dry and light. But that doesn't affect her beauty. Her beauty is stunning everywhere, even the salty and wet sea breeze can't change it, but adds a touch of desolation to her beauty that doesn't eat the fireworks of the world.

When Aoki came in, Xia Xiaoxiao was holding a glass of boiling water and talking to a staff member at the rescue center in English. She turned her head and smiled at Aoki, her expression unfazed, as if the two had made an appointment to meet here today.

"Mr. Aoki, what a coincidence." She politely put down her cup and held out her hand.

"......" Aoki held her hand, and didn't know what to call her for a while, is it Miss Xia? Or Mrs. Szeto?

"Call me Xiaoxiao, you are Meimei's godfather, you don't have to be outside." Xia Xiaoxiao said.

Aoki let go of her hand with an "oh" and asked, "How did you get here?" ”

Xia Xiaoxiao glanced at Su Huilan and Petru behind Aoki and said, "I came to travel, and I just heard that there was an accident on a scientific research ship here, so I did my best." ”

Aoki knew that there were a lot of people here, and she had some things that she didn't want to say, so she didn't ask more, and only introduced Su Huilan and Petru to her to get to know each other.

Su Huilan saw that Xia Xiaoxiao and Aoki had something to say, and after a few polite words, she took Petru to the warehouse of the rescue center to find a radiation detector.

Xia Xiaoxiao smiled and said to Aoki, "Come out for a walk with me." ”

The two men left the camp's bungalows and came to the beach in the port of Ahure Bay. Not far away was Petru's fishing boat, docked alongside several other boats, and with the exception of the two tall masts, which were slightly obtrusive, it was an ordinary fishing boat.

The crow was perched on top of the ship's mast, and he didn't like the noise of the birds on the island, saying that listening too much would lower his IQ.

"I'm here for my husband." Xia Xiaoxiao said.

"I guessed it." Aoki said, "Did you find it?" ”

Xia Xiaoxiao shook her head, a hint of loneliness flashed in her eyes: "You must be very strange, why do I not know my husband's whereabouts and look for him so persistently?" ”

Aoki is indeed strange, but this is someone's privacy, and he can't bother to ask.

"He loves me, so he doesn't want me to be involved in something dangerous. However, by the time he got me out of Lab 19, I was already in danger. Even some of the dangers he experienced were brought to him by me, but he didn't tell me. ”

She looked out at the vast expanse of the sea, and the sea breeze ruffled her long soft hair, like a violinist gently pulling the strings.

"Since Meimei was born, I have accepted his arrangement to face danger and bear everything alone, while I am only responsible for raising Meimei. Now that Meimei has returned to Wuzhong and received the best care from her grandparents, and a godfather like you, I don't have any worries, so I decided to find him. ”

Aoki suddenly felt a little guilty, after recognizing Xia Chujue's goddaughter, he only went to Xia's house to see her twice, and he didn't even buy any toys. Compared to Shi Dazhuang's treatment of his comrades-in-arms' daughters, his godfather is really bad.

"How did you know he was here?" He asked.

"He's my husband after all, and I know everything about him. Even if he could avoid me, I could find some traces. "I know he's concerned about the disappearance of research ships and the pyramids on the bottom of the sea, even more than he's been concerned about in the past." He said in an e-mail to me that this matter could be related to the fate of the entire human race. ”

"So, he's been here a long time ago?"

"I don't know." Xia Xiaoxiao's throat suddenly became a little hoarse, as if he had poured a breath of sea breeze, "He has a submarine that he bought from Ukraine a long time ago. A few months ago, he carried out a refurbishment of the submarine and also purchased weapons. ”

Aoki immediately thought of the last sentence in Captain Church's diary: To ar, God bless!

Could it be that Situ attacked the research ship?

But when he thought about it, it was wrong, as early as when the research ship disappeared, Situ still appeared in Copenhagen, and the person in the captain's diary who was later rescued by them was probably Situ. But if Situ had a submarine, how could he get on the research ship?

"My Navy friends told me that submarine fragments had been found at sea, and they had been identified as Romeo-class Type 633 conventional submarines built by the former Soviet Union in the sixties of the last century, the same model as my husband's."

Xia Xiaoxiao's voice trembled, and her eyes were slightly moist, "I know...... The survival rate of submarine accidents is almost zero......"
