Cat and Mu Jin waited where they were.

After a while, someone suddenly came over and swam straight towards them!

Once inside the cabin, it was like a maze with many paths, but they unexpectedly encountered Yamashita Shiki again!

Soon, Yamashita Ichiro swam up to them. He looked in surprise at the three exposed boxes. He wanted to open the lids to take a look, but as soon as he reached out, Mu Jin stopped him.

Yamashita Shige raised his head and smiled, seemingly unconcerned about Mu Jin's obstruction. He gave the two a thumbs-up, greeted them, and then swam off to another spot.

After a while, Tan Zheng returned, but did not rush into the cabin. He said on the communication channel, "Maomao, Jin Er, I'm all ready here. Do you need me to come in and help?"

Mu Jin said, "No need, just wait there."

Together, Maomao and Mujin cleared the things around the box. Then Mujin said to Maomao, "You wait here, I'll take the box out."

Cat nodded. The two of them could each carry one suitcase at most, but now there were three suitcases. The best solution was for one of them to make an extra trip.

Mu Jin lifted the box, swam out, and took the little fish with her.

The magic circle on the little fish's belly is for positioning. In places where radio communication can fail at any time, this kind of magic circle is much more practical! It can only pinpoint a single location, unlike intelligent navigation which can plan many different routes. It can only remember the route it has taken, but that's enough!

The black cat wriggled its limbs and swayed back and forth in front of the cat, successfully attracting the cat's attention.

The cat patted its head, its eyes asking through the diving mask what it wanted.

The black cat moved its limbs more merrily, and in a human-like manner, pointed in a direction with its paw.

The cat raised an eyebrow. Had it discovered something else?

The cat patted the black cat's head again, telling it not to worry, that she couldn't leave now and had to wait for Mu Jin to come back.

Not long after.

Mu Jin has returned.

The cat swam out of the cabin with him, each dragging a large suitcase.

Tan Zheng and Song Sifan were outside the boat to provide support. They worked together quite well, quickly securing the box with ropes and then floating to the surface with it.

The group returned to the ship one after another. Before they could even unload their equipment, several experts came aboard from another ship and excitedly opened the three boxes.

One of them said, "This is incredible! You actually got into the ship's cabin and brought out such important artifacts!"

They've been here for days and haven't made any progress!

One expert said sincerely, "When General Gu first said he would send a few juniors over, I was a little worried. Now it seems I was just being paranoid! It's wonderful, truly wonderful!"

As they spoke, they began cleaning and counting the artifacts in the boxes.

Cat took off her diving suit and stayed in the decompression chamber for a while. As soon as she came out, she saw Yu Bingxue.

Yu Bingxue also looked at her, as if she had been waiting for her all along, "Jiu Maomao, are you guys going swimming again this afternoon?"

The cat nodded.

Yu Bingxue asked, "Could you help me collect some biological samples from near the trench?"

The cat glanced at Yu Bingxue.

Yu Bingxue explained, "Our divers on board can't dive that deep... If you happen to be there, could you bring some back for me?"

The cat nodded. "Okay!"

Yu Bingxue seemed to smile.

The cat looked at her. Although she was a serious researcher from head to toe, her smile had a special vitality that made people turn their heads.

The cat then returned to the cabin.

At this time, Kuya Shiro had already drawn the latest structure of the sunken ship.

"Based on the available information, we can roughly determine that the cargo hold should be located here, on the innermost side of the ship. However, judging from the direction of the ship's tilt, the original location of the shipwreck should not be here. It should have been washed here."

"Furthermore, the boxes that Maomao and Mujin brought up further prove that the warehouse had already been destroyed, and there may not be any goods stored inside. Therefore, you must carefully consider whether to risk exploring deeper into the warehouse," Jiu Yebai said.

This diagram, which has now been drawn, should be the most detailed one yet.

The cat sat in front of the computer for a long time, seemingly lost in thought.

Tan Zheng then said, "We need to be quick and careful! Damn it, I still don't know who pushed me underwater! That person is fast enough; if I catch him, I'll kill him on the spot!"

Ye Mingshi said, "You guys seem to be having quite a blast, but why didn't Gu Zeyi and I get anything?"

Gu Zeyi said, "How can you say there was no gain? Isn't positioning a gain?"

Ye Mingshi shrugged. "I guess you could say that."

He also wanted to salvage the cultural relics!

Fifth Zhen was still looking through a high-powered telescope when he said, "The other ships also had a good haul, but I wonder... what they've salvaged."

Yu Bingxue said, "Today is indeed very lively. It seems that the letter published by Yamashita in the International Cultural Relics Journal has greatly stimulated the countries involved. As soon as you went into the water today, the others also recklessly approached the sunken ship."

Everyone on the boat got busy.

After resting for a while, the cat went into the water again in the afternoon.

This time, we spent a long time in the cabin, but we didn't find anything else.

Cat and Mu Jin originally planned to explore the location of the cargo hold on the sunken ship, but the middle of the ship was blocked by a huge whale carcass! And it blocked it completely!

With no other option, they had to return to the ship.

It got dark quickly, but there was still a lot to do.

The artifacts in the three boxes that Maomao and Mujin brought up have been cleared out. Maomao went to check them out and found that 70% of the items in the boxes were intact. Even the damaged items were intact because the boxes were sealed.

One box was full of ceramic bowls and plates, another box contained small ceramic ornaments, and the third box was a bit special—it contained a batch of spices!

Although some were broken, none of them were damaged by seawater!

Bai Jiang, standing behind the cat, couldn't help but say, "These spices have been treated with very strict waterproofing measures. Now, when you pick them up, the flavor is even more mellow and authentic."

The cat picked up a piece of agarwood, and sure enough, the scent was a rich and mellow fragrance that was refreshing and delightful.

Cat stood there lost in thought. After a while, she suddenly said, "General Bai, you handle these things first, then seal them up. Guard them carefully tonight."

General Bai nodded. "Yes."

Cat returned to the cabin and found Jiu Yebai. "Xiaobai, organize the photos taken inside the sunken ship and send them to Professor Gu."

Cat only waited a short while before Professor Gu called her.
