Fenghai Lake is located in Meishan Town, 25 kilometers northwest of the city.

It covers an area of ​​13 square kilometers and spans more than 7 kilometers from southwest to northeast.

The lake water flows into the sea 30 kilometers away via the wide Fengshou River, with a difference of only 8 meters between the lake surface and the sea level.

The islands inside are numerous and scenic, but that was before the cold snap arrived.

Now, not only are all the lush islands deserted, but even the lake is covered with a thick layer of ice.

Qin Luofei's location was in the center of Fenghai Lake.

On the island called "Sky Bridge," there used to be a quirky organization: a water quality monitoring station.

Liu Kai only now realized that this small station was actually a cover for an underwater research base.

There is a vertical passage nearly 100 meters long that leads directly to the underground base.

Unfortunately, it has now collapsed.

Following the location, Liu Kai traveled through the northern part of the city.

The original road leading to Meishan Town had been buried under ice, so there was no need to make any more twists and turns.

Simply proceed along the relatively flat ice.

At 10:00 a.m., Liu Kai had already arrived at Fenghai Lake.

To prevent any accidents, he also brought Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai out to "see the world" this time.

Because of an exceptionally heavy rain that preceded the arrival of the cold wave, the ice surface of Fenghai Lake is now at least 15 meters higher than the previous water level.

In addition, there is the original deepest water surface of 55 meters and a 30-meter-thick concrete layer.

The underwater research base is now nearly 100 meters away from the ice surface.

Only the highest "Sky Bridge Island" is still faintly visible.

However, the water quality monitoring station, which was originally intended as a cover, was also completely buried.

Fenghai Lake was bustling with activity, just like the offshore drilling platform had been before.

Several trucks and two helicopters were parked near the island.

Dozens of heavily armed soldiers were stationed on the perimeter, indicating that the operation was being taken very seriously.

A circular opening about ten meters in diameter has been cut into the ice.

Because freshwater freezes more easily than seawater, the ice here is already thicker than near Binhai No. 3.

It is a full 8 meters long.

A crane was erected above the ice cave, and it was continuously lifting bodies out of the cave.

The corpses included both men and women, and almost all of them were dressed in white lab coats.

His skin was pale, and his whole body was so swollen that his original appearance was no longer visible.

Liu Kai knew that these must be the researchers who died unexpectedly at the underwater research base.

According to Qin Luofei.

The experiment went wrong here, and coincidentally, a cold wave immediately followed.

This is why rescue efforts could not be carried out immediately.

Only now have we had the time to retrieve their bodies.

It's hard not to feel a little sad: these were all talented people nurtured over many years, and it's such a pity that they lost their lives like this.

...

The guards all recognized Liu Kai's snowmobile.

Upon seeing him approach, they merely conducted a token inspection with an explosives scanner before letting him pass.

Liu Kai finally met an acquaintance: Qin Luofei, who was wearing a military overcoat that covered her graceful figure.

At this moment, Qin Luofei was discussing and making arrangements with several people who appeared to be technicians.

It seems she is still in command of this operation.

This surprised Liu Kai.

It's understandable that she was in charge of the Binhai No. 3 drilling platform, although it was important, there are many drilling platforms across the country.

And now this operation is related to global peace, so why is she, a captain, in command?

It's not that being a captain is a low rank, but rather that it always feels like the authorities don't really value it.

He quickly felt relieved.

After all, even he, an unofficial member, was invited to carry out the mission.

Upon seeing Liu Kai arrive.

Qin Luofei closed the folder, handed it to the technician, nodded, and said, "That's all, you can go back to work."

A strange smile played on his face.

"Here you are, Mr. Qiu. Please wait a moment. There are still some preparations to be made."

Liu Kai nodded in response.

But looking at Qin Luofei's smile, something just felt off.

I couldn't help but ask, "What are you laughing at? Did something happy happen?"

"Hehe, there is indeed something that makes me quite happy."

Looking around and seeing that no one was around, Qin Luofei stepped forward and leaned against Liu Kai.

A pair of bright, large eyes stared at Liu Kai, making him feel uneasy.

He suddenly lowered his voice and asked, "Mr. Qiu, or should I call you Mr. Liu?"

Qin Luofei's unexpected remark caused Liu Kai's pupils to shrink sharply.

My heart stopped abruptly for a moment, then started beating violently again.

A dangerous feeling of being seen through immediately rose in Liu Kai's heart.

Did she find out? Was she the only one who knew, or did the authorities know as well?

Have the things I did before the cold wave been exposed?

What about spatial abilities?

If we're really exposed, don't blame me...

As a multitude of thoughts flashed through his mind, all the muscles in his body began to tense up.

Be ready to suddenly attack and injure someone at any time.

His principle is to avoid fighting the authorities unless absolutely necessary, because you can't win!

But if it really comes to the last resort, then we must kill.

However, the situation is still unclear and the official stance is unknown.

He forced himself to calm down and wait and see.

On the surface, Liu Kai was just standing still, but his back was already covered in cold sweat.

These thoughts flashed by in an instant; Liu Kai had just subconsciously maintained the expression on the half of his face that was exposed.

His voice was slightly cold: "I, Qiu, don't understand what Secretary Qin is saying."

Even so, Qin Luofei clearly caught the fleeting moment of panic he had just shown.

His face still wore that inexplicable "I don't believe it" smile.
