CHAPTER XXIII

If what Zhang Yang said is true, then, based on his age, this house should have been built in the early years of the Republic of China, and when this photo was taken, the house was almost forty years old. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Where did you get that?" I asked Jiang Yiling.

"A week ago, someone delivered it to my house, I was not at home at the time, and it was my maid who signed for it for me."

It's express again.

I panic when I think about the delivery now.

The phone came again, it was still the same number just now, and he looked at the two people opposite, "Did you answer?" ”

The two of them nodded at the same time, pressed the answer button, and a man's voice was on the other side of the phone, "Mr. Fang?" Tonight at eleven o'clock, Pier Nine, the ship is ready. ”

"Thank you."

After hanging up the phone, the three of them immediately retracted their thoughts and went back to their rooms to pack their equipment, this time they needed to explore the deep sea, which was a very big challenge for a creature like me who lived on land all year round.

Wetsuits, oxygen cylinders, submersible goggles, deep-sea probes, etc., these things were all shipped to Tianjin before, all of them are professional underwater operation tools imported from Germany, in addition, Jiang Yiling also took out two mobile phones for me and Zhang Yang, I immediately recognized this as the Phantom series, there are only three underwater smartphones in the world.

At 9:30, four people gathered at the door of the hotel on time, the car keys were deposited at the front desk, and after retrieving them, they drove to Pier 9, and the road was smooth.

It's a very remote little pier, and if it weren't for a boat parked here, I would have thought it would be an offshore aquaculture pit abandoned by fishermen.

The ship is still quite good, all the instruments are new technology in the past two years, it seems that the people here still do things with heart.

After a round around the boat, except for the four of us, there was no one who could gasp, and when I walked into the wheelhouse, it was also empty.

Zhang Yang passed outside the cab with his luggage, and I immediately stopped him and asked, "Brother Zhang, where is the person who picked us up?" Also, who drives the boat! ”

Jiang Yiling also came to the wheelhouse at this moment, seeing that her posture was to go into battle by herself, I quickly flashed to the side, stopped Zhang Yang on the deck, and asked him in a low voice: "What's the matter, it can't be true that it's just the four of us." ”

Zhang Yang made a silent gesture to me, and then carried my luggage up to the second floor, I was just about to catch up, suddenly I felt a violent shaking under my feet, and then I felt the whole ship moving, and the speed was getting faster and faster.

Jiang Yiling really went into battle in person, I didn't care about her, I chased Zhang Yang all the way to the second floor, the door of his room was open, I stood outside the door and shouted, and when I walked in, I saw him sitting on the ground sorting out his equipment.

I also sat on the ground, watching him check every detail of the equipment very carefully, and suddenly I felt like an amateur.

"Is there something wrong with me?" He suddenly looked up at me.

I shrugged, "It was fine, but now it's fine." ”

He let out an "oh" and kept his head down and went about his business.

I saw that he didn't intend to ignore me, so I stood up and planned to go back to the room to rest, and as soon as I walked to the door, I heard a loud voice behind me, "Don't think nonsense, before you came, I already knew the net worth background and personal ability of each of you, so for the sake of safety, I didn't arrange for anyone else to participate, the less people know about this matter, the better, otherwise, things will continue to happen that night." ”

Originally, I really wanted to ask him what happened that night, but I never had a chance, but now that he said it himself, I went back to the place where I was sitting just now, looked at him seriously, and said, "Can you tell me what happened that night?" With your brother's martial arts skills, you won't be plotted by those few wastes, is there anything inside to this? ”

Zhang Yang put down the diving goggles in his hand, put his hands on his knees, and said very seriously: "Your biggest shortcoming is that you are too self-righteous. ”

This was the first time that someone had commented on me so directly, and although I was very upset when I heard it, I wanted to go up and grab him by the neck to make him retract what he had just said, but reason made me give up this terrible thought.

He smiled awkwardly, didn't know how to answer, blinked his eyes, and finally said good night and went back to the room alone.

In the middle of the night, I don't know what time it was, I was once again woken up by that transparent person, for more than a year, I have become accustomed to it,

After washing my face, I put on my clothes and went to the deck alone to smoke a cigarette, the night sky is dotted with stars, away from the pollution of the city, the night sky here looks exceptionally beautiful.

"So you're here, too."

Jiang Yiling also came to the deck to smoke in her pajamas, and when she saw me there, she came over to say hello, and it should have been some years since she saw her holding a cigarette.

"I can't sleep, so I want to come out to breathe, what about you, what are you doing running out in the middle of the night?"

Jiang Yiling pointed to his temple and said, "It's the same as you." ”

I chuckled in my heart and cautiously asked her, "What's the same with me?" ”

In the darkness, a little red crossed a perfect parabola and fell into the sea, "Why did Young Master Fang come to the West Sea, is it really for those ownerless treasures under the sea?" ”

I turned to face the ocean and took a deep breath, "I can't hide anything from you." ”

Jiang Yiling lit another cigarette, looked up, she looked in the direction of Zhang Yang's room, and suddenly asked me, "How do you feel about him?" ”

I smiled, "Cute." ”

"Cute?" Jiang Yiling stared intently for a while, "It's almost dawn, go back and sleep for a while, it's already the open sea here, pay attention to safety." ”

I was the only one left on the deck, I stood where Jiang Yiling was standing just now, my eyes looked up, the light in Zhang Yang's room was still on, and I suddenly felt that what Jiang Yiling asked me just now had another deep meaning.

The sea breeze was very comfortable, I didn't want to go back, so I just leaned on the rattan chair on the deck and took a nap, and suddenly, the hull was hit by something, and the violent shaking almost threw me out, but fortunately I reacted quickly enough to grab the railing in time, so I was not thrown into the sea.

The hull of the ship kept shaking violently from side to side, and Jiang Yiling and Lu Chuan rushed to the deck as soon as possible, and at this time, there was no publicity.

I was worried that the little brother was sleeping deeply, so I immediately ran to his room to wake him up, but his room was empty.

We were scammed.

That's what my first reaction was when I saw that his scuba gear was gone.

I opened the window and shouted to Jiang Yiling on the deck, "No one, he's gone." ”

Jiang Yiling's face was solemn, she came to the bow of the boat despite the violent shaking of the hull, grabbed the railing and looked down, and suddenly shouted, "Lu Chuan, bring the equipment." ”

Lu Chuan moved quickly, and in the blink of an eye, he picked up three sets of diving suits and piled them at his feet, and I also returned to the deck at this time, Jiang Yiling quickly put on the diving suit and put everything on, and fell into the sea with the help of Lu Chuan.
