Chapter 26 Marina Town
On the afternoon of the day Zhao Jingyang left Hongguang, Sanmao took over a reconnaissance mission from the Special Affairs Office.
"Freshly baked mission, I was quick to catch it."
Sanmao's eyebrows danced and said, "After all, we don't know much about the so-called super natural disasters in this world, just like Jing Ye said, it's better to be cautious. So I didn't even look at that kind of direct hands-on task. Let's start with the reconnaissance mission."
And he said, "Then again, I see that the other transcendents attached to the Special Affairs Office have the same idea—and that says a lot."
"None of them are very happy to do the kind of hands-on missions, they are all keen on reconnaissance missions. This shows that the direct task must be very dangerous, and they are afraid."
When Dong Hongyu heard this, she bowed slightly: "Sanmao is doing a good job. We're just getting started, so we have to be careful. Start from the subtleties, start from the side branches, and don't recklessly plunge headlong into the whirlpool of danger."
He said, "What is the specific goal of the mission?"
Sanmao said, "It's a reconnaissance mission against a monster named Marina Town."
As soon as he said this, Yeming's eyes widened next to him, "Marina Town? Is it that coastal town in the northeast of Peanutun City?"
Sanmao looked at her in surprise and nodded, "You know that place?"
Ye Ming received confirmation from Sanmao's mouth, was stunned for a moment, and said, "Of course I know... That's my hometown."
"Oh?"
Several people around were interested.
Dong Hongyu said, "It's actually Yeming's hometown?"
Yeming nodded slightly, "Yes. But I haven't been back for seven or eight years."
As she spoke, her expression was slightly darkened - with a painted skin mask on her face, she did not hide the change in her expression, otherwise there would be a flaw.
She said, "Is it another monster attack?"
Then he said, "Seven or eight years ago, there was also a monster attack in Marina Town..."
She said it as it was, and then said, "I didn't expect such a thing to happen again after seven or eight years..."
After listening to her, Dong Hongyu took her hand and said, "What happened seven or eight years ago is unbearable; But we are different from other transcendents. Nothing like that will ever happen to us."
Sanmao patted his chest and said, "We are the team of the people!"
Then he said, "As you say, the man-eating monster came out of the sea seven or eight years ago. Maybe this time too... It's an obvious clue."
Hearing this, Yeming hesitated, "Is it possible?"
Sanmao said: "The possibility is not small. But not necessarily, since I have received this task, I will find out sooner or later."
Ye Ming gritted his teeth at this time and said, "I'll go too!"
As soon as she said this, Dong Hongyu said, "You can't go."
Nightlight exclaimed, "Why?!"
Dong Hongyu said, "It's extraordinary, and you don't have the power to participate in it."
"Marina Town is my hometown."
He said, "Sister Hongyu, even though I don't have the strength, I know a lot of people there. Although many people have moved away after the original incident, many more remained."
"I can help Sanmao."
Dong Hongyu groaned, and then said slowly, "I originally planned for you to help Yanyun deal with business matters." ….
Yeming shook his head, "I don't like to sit behind the counter all day and sell things!"
said, "Sister Hongyu, I have an extraordinary perception, and I know that you think I am arrogant and not cautious enough. But I'll change it."
Sanmao interjected on the side: "Jing Niang, I think it's better to let her try it with us." She does have a keen sense - and this is a reconnaissance mission, and if something doesn't go right, we can get out of the way immediately."
Dong Hongyu listened to it and muttered, "It's okay. It's okay to give it a try. If you really don't fit in, go back and follow Yanyun on the business route."
Yeming laughed, "Hmm!"
then selected people, including Sanmao and Yeming, a total of five people; The other three, one was one of the first ten people who came, and the other two were two of the second group of people who had just come.
i.e. no delay.
The steam car was bought, and the group immediately drove out of the red light and walked in the direction of Peanutun.
In the car, Sanmao said while driving, "Anyway, Jing Ye is also in Peanutun Tun now. I don't know if I'll be able to meet him."
Ye Ming, who was the co-pilot next to him, shook his head and said, "Let's go to Binhai Town, we don't have to pass through the urban area of Peanutun."
Sanmao smiled, "That's just that... Anyway, it's okay in the car now, why don't you tell us about Marina Town?"
Yeming nodded, tucked a few strands of hair back and forth from his face behind his ears, and then recounted Marina Town in a narration.
"Marina isn't big."
"I remember that there were less than a thousand people living in the town."
"Esplanade started as a fishing village hundreds of years ago. At that time, the Haixi mainland was greatly developed, and some people moved from Zhongzhou and settled there to make a living from fishing."
"When I was a child, I heard my dad say that the peak of Marina Town was more than 100 years ago. At that time, the fishing industry was very prosperous, and every year during the fishing season, large schools of rare marine fish passed through the sea outside the town, and at that time, fishing only had to cast a net to catch a lot of fish."
"Later, the fishery resources gradually shrank, and the prosperity of Marina Town was no longer there."
"On the seaside side of the town, many abandoned fish processing factories are now in ruins."
"Without its abundant resources, Marina Town gradually declined and became what I remembered."
Then she changed her voice: "But although the coastal town is not rich, the scenery is very beautiful."
Speaking of this, she has a smile on her face: "Especially the coconut grove south of the abandoned processing plant, which was my favorite place when I was a child."
"When the tide is high, the sea overflows the mangroves and reaches the coconut groves, and when the tide goes down, we go crab hunting together..."
She fell into the memories.
The scenery of the coastal town is indeed very beautiful.
It can be said that it is a small town hidden deep in nature.
It is thirty kilometres from the nearest city, and there is no other populated place in between; Around the town, there are many palm and coconut trees, and the buildings in the town are also ancient.
The result is an extremely cozy style.
However, in the past half a month, the residents of the town have fallen into panic.
For days on end, people went missing; There were even sightings of monsters eating people.
This made the original residents of this town can't help but think of the tragedy seven or eight years ago!
Some people have already left Marina Town in a hurry, and some people are ready to leave, and the mayor of the town is even more busy reporting the matter and asking for support from his superiors.
It was under such circumstances that in the evening glow, Sanmao and his party drove a car and came here.
