Chapter 366 Storm at Sea (2)

"Hello? Well, it seems that this stone statue only has monitoring equipment and no communication function."

"Have."

Christina waved her hand with her back to the statue and left. However, as soon as she left the statue, Han Zu's voice rang out.

"So why don't you speak? Are you shocked by my identity?"

Christina looked a little different from before, and a little different from what Han Zu had seen in the surveillance equipment in the previous facility. Naturally, Han Zu doubted her identity and did not answer her questions.

"It seems so. I'll be leaving then. There's nothing else to investigate here. You two can stay and chat slowly. I have something else to do."

Christina patted Chu Yi's shoulder, and her appearance changed back to what it was before. Then, after she brushed off some small pieces of dirt on her clothes, she suddenly disappeared in front of Chu Yi.

"I'm sorry to have dragged you into this trouble."

"What do you mean?"

"I didn't tell you the identity of the family that was hunting Leslie down before."

"It doesn't matter. I'm impressed by Leslie's work ability. You know, I do have a lot of paperwork to deal with."

"I thought you'd be mad."

"People always grow up, and restraint is an important virtue."

"I also want to ask you one more thing, did you really build a secret facility?"

"Correct."

"You want to use it against Infinity Corporation?"

"Not entirely. I just don't want to be at the mercy of others. But now it seems that I may need to prepare again."

"Can I ask what's in there?"

"Some equipment, weapons, and some documents and files. Most of them were collected during the Great Purge. They contained some evidence of the company's top brass. Now that these things are destroyed, they will probably be very happy. In order not to cause more trouble, I think the investigation into this facility will be stopped soon and be labeled as a rumor."

"Well, now that I got the answer I wanted, I don't have anything else to do. By the way, I still want to say thank you for Leslie's matter."

"Small things."

Chu Yi waved at the stone statue, interrupted the conversation with Han Zu, and quickly left the village. Han Zu was also ready to stop operating the surveillance device disguised as a stone statue.

"Consumable information storage device detected."

At this moment, the contractor's equipment suddenly detected something that looked like a secret information storage device that could store information but would automatically destroy itself after viewing it once. By detecting the location of the device, Han Zu discovered that this was the small piece of soil that Christina had just knocked off her trouser leg. The location where it finally stopped rolling.

"Encrypted communications code detected."

"Device self-destructed."

This special encrypted communication code should have been left intentionally by Christina. She probably wanted to talk to me alone, and this matter needed to be done away from other people.

If Christina's identity was not fake, then she knew the most information among everyone, including himself. Although he didn't know what she was going to do, Han Zu thought that this communication might be very important. Maybe he should try to use this special communication code. But before that, he used the contractor's equipment to decipher the code. The results after deciphering allowed Han Zu to have a more accurate judgment of Christina's identity.

After tracing the source and eliminating nearly a hundred false coordinates used as bait, the location of the last communication code was at a location listed by Han Zu that was suspected to be the territory of the Feidenan family. It was an extremely luxurious but uninhabited manor. The location was probably in a country in Western Europe.

Gloria was currently following Han Zu's instructions to purchase some supplies that might be useful and transport them to the fishing boat, so Han Zu was the only one in the room, which was a good opportunity for communication. After using the contractor's equipment to shield his position, Han Zu used the communication code to connect to the other side of the communication.

"I didn't expect you could actually contact me using that communication code."

"So what is the purpose of this communication?"

"Nothing, just trying to see if we can get in touch."

"That's it?"

"Of course not, but we don't need to talk too much right now. It's not very convenient here. If there is a chance, we can talk in person. I think we can exchange a lot of information that is beneficial to each other. If you want to call it intelligence, that's fine too."

"What's your purpose?"

"I..."

During the communication, Christina heard footsteps outside the room, as if someone was walking towards her room.

"We can meet again in person if we have a chance. You can contact me using this communication code. It's not convenient here, so let's leave it at that for now."

Christina hung up the call in a hurry, and Han Zu began to fall into thought.

With the help of the contractor's equipment, no one could determine his location as long as he didn't want to, so he wasn't worried about that. He was more curious about why Christina would make a special communication code just to contact him. She must be trying to do something, but Han Zu had other things to do, and it was not clear what Christina's attitude was. So this matter could only be put aside for the time being.

But no matter what the situation is, Han Zu feels that Christina is more cunning than she looks. Maybe she is brewing some amazing plan, and this plan may involve him. If he needs to contact her again in the future, he should be more careful.

"A group of riddlers..."

"what happened?"

"I was just looking at some contractor information. It was all so confusing that I couldn't understand it at all."

"Oh, by the way, everything is ready. If the rain stops tomorrow, we can set off. But looking at the weather, I don't think the rain will stop in the next few days."

"Then we'll set off immediately after the rain subsides a bit. We've been staying at the third coordinate for too long."

"it is good."

The next morning.

It was still raining outside, but it was indeed much lighter than last night. In order to prevent any more trouble, Han Zu and Gloria did not continue to wait for the rain to stop, but directly boarded the fishing boat that Han Zu bought and headed towards the third coordinate.

Due to the previous shipwreck, Han Zu and Gloria changed their route and came to the location of this island country. The tourism and fishing industries here are quite developed, so there are many ships on the coastline. Even if the weather is bad and it is raining heavily, there are still many fishing boats and sporadic sightseeing boats near this sea area. Therefore, the fishing boat purchased by Han Zu did play a role in concealing others.

Soon, after the fishing boats left the coastline and entered the deep sea, there were fewer fishing boats here, and they seemed to be in a hurry to return. Using the contractor's equipment to hack into the communication equipment on the nearby fishing boats, Han Zu learned that there might be a large storm at sea, and these fishing boats were in a hurry to return because they didn't want to be affected by the storm at sea. Even in this day and age, the power of nature cannot be underestimated.

However, for Han Zu and Gloria, a simple natural disaster was not a problem at all. Even if the fishing boat was completely destroyed, it was not a big problem. After all, the equipment on the fishing boat was only used to disguise themselves as fishermen. So instead of slowing down the speed of the fishing boat, they increased the speed and headed towards the third coordinate at full speed.

Three hours later, the fishing boat returned to the location of the previous shipwreck. Through the search of the contractor's equipment, it was found that all the survivors on board had been evacuated, but the position of the ship was still half-sunken. And some strange situations also appeared.

The broken warship nearby has sunk to the bottom of the sea, but this cruise ship still remains in place. Through equipment detection, it can be found that there are some traces of explosions on the bottom of the cruise ship. It is estimated that someone wanted to sink the wreckage of the cruise ship into the water. But even though the bottom of the cruise ship was almost blown to pieces, the deck position is still floating under the sea, like a piece of land, motionless.

But no matter how he checked, Han Zu did not find any special energy residue, so he had to give up the search for the cruise ship wreckage and continue to follow the original route, heading towards the third coordinate location.

However, as the distance got closer, the sea environment became worse and worse. Although it was just past noon, the dark clouds on the sea were so thick that no light could penetrate. The sea was dark, with lightning and thunder, and the rain was getting heavier. Soon, because of the huge waves on the sea, it was difficult for the fishing boat to get close to the coordinates again.

Because the noise was too loud, except for the rolling waves and thunder, no sound could be heard. So Han Zu and Gloria switched to using the contractor's equipment to communicate. After evaluation, Han Zu decided to abandon the ship and continue to the third coordinate from the sea.

After deciding on the next action plan, neither of them intentionally left the fishing boat. They just loosened their hands holding the railing of the fishing boat and were automatically pushed into the sea by the huge waves. After losing control, the fishing boat was quickly pushed far away by the waves, and then turned into fragments of various sizes in a wave attack as high as a hundred meters.

When they got to the sea, the movement of the water was not so violent. However, due to the environment, no light could penetrate where they were, and it was pitch black all around.

Fortunately, this was not a problem for Han Zu's eyesight. Although Gloria also had night vision, it was not as strong as Han Zu's. However, relying on the scarlet light deliberately lit by Han Zu's eyes and the positioning of the contractor's equipment, they were still able to keep up with each other.

"There is still considerable water resistance at this depth. If we want to speed up, we should dive about 50 meters deeper to reach a depth where the water flow is stable."

Gloria gave her own suggestions. Through the two scarlet lights, she was able to confirm that Han Zu nodded, so the two of them moved their bodies and quickly dived to the expected depth. At this depth, the water flow really stabilized, so the two of them sped up again and quickly moved towards the third coordinate.

However, five hours later.

"Something's wrong. According to our speed, we should have arrived a long time ago. Why are we getting farther and farther away from our destination now?"

There was nothing wrong with the contractor's equipment, which meant that the two people's movement paths were also correct, but their physical sensations when moving always gave them an inexplicable sense of deviation.

"No abnormalities detected."

But Han Zu always felt that something was wrong there. He suspected that the contractor's equipment might not be able to detect some special situations, so he used the equipment to communicate with Gloria, telling her to get ready to move upwards and surface to take a look.

But the strange thing was that although the upward movement was not blocked and the contractor's equipment did not find anything strange, Han Zu always felt that the time to float up was much longer than expected.

“It may be psychological.”

Fortunately, the two finally floated to the surface of the sea. However, the scene that appeared in front of them made them both confused.

"Large vortex detected. Size being mapped"

"Calculation completed, vortex diameter: 1.5 kilometers"

A huge whirlpool with a diameter of 1,500 meters was right in front of the two of them. They were right at the edge of the whirlpool. It was unknown how deep the whirlpool was, but the center was completely dark.

But this was obviously completely wrong, because when they were below the sea just now, the two did not see any whirlpool at all, let alone one of this scale, which anyone with normal vision could see.

"What's going on?"

"I'll go down and have a look."

Han Zu dived underwater again, and when he just buried his head underwater, the giant whirlpool that should have appeared in front of him disappeared.

"No anomalies detected."

The contractor's equipment detected nothing. When he stuck his head out of the sea, the huge whirlpool appeared clearly before his eyes again, and the contractor's equipment was able to detect it normally.

After talking, Han Zu and Gloria decided to give it a try and see what would happen if they dived under the sea first and then surfaced from the inside of the vortex. So after the two confirmed the action, they immediately dived into the sea.

According to memory, after moving forward a certain distance, the two arrived at a location that should be inside the whirlpool, and then floated to the surface of the sea from this location.

Sure enough, the two appeared in the whirlpool, and the sea water beneath them suddenly disappeared. The two began to fall rapidly from this position towards the center of the whirlpool and towards the bottom.

"Detected... Not found... Detected,... Not found..."

Just as the two men fell, the contractor's equipment seemed to have malfunctioned, constantly changing and re-detecting the results again and again.

"Error, unrecognizable energy signature."

Following the error prompt from the contractor's equipment, the two men eventually fell into the depths of the whirlpool, were pulled by the vortex with tremendous force, and then were thrown out violently like stones wrapped in a slingshot, into deeper sea water.
