Chapter 360 Signal

After stopping the ship, it took a long time for the two captains in the cabin to stagger to the deck.

After seeing Captain Zhang, the two men said in trembling voices, "We were terrified. They were fine before, but suddenly they went crazy. When we found out, we immediately locked the cab door. There was no sound from inside, so they stopped looking for us. But they bit quite a few people when they went crazy."

Captain Zhang asked, "When did these people start going crazy? Wait, tell me from the beginning, starting from after we left."

The two captains in the cabin are responsible for driving the ship. This is a special job, so they don't need to perform other tasks, just guard the ship. After Captain Zhang and his team members left, the two of them stayed in the cabin of their own ship.

There were not many people left on the boat at that time, but for a while everything was peaceful.

These people returned with injuries after two days and one night. Led by Captain Wang, more than a hundred people gathered on the shore. All of them, without exception, were injured, but the injuries varied in severity. But almost all of them were in a miserable state.

This situation is very terrifying. After all, 200 people went up the mountain, half of them came back injured, and most of the remaining half died on the mountain. As for the rest, it is not certain whether they will ever return.

But faced with so many wounded people, they could not care about anything else for a moment. They quickly found first aid equipment on the boat and a group of people worked together to rescue them.

After bandaging, the crew members with more serious injuries were sent to the cabin first. Those who were not particularly seriously injured were left on the shore, and this group of people also planned to go back to find Captain Zhang and others.

But before this plan began, the injured people's bodies reacted one after another and then began to go crazy.

With so many wounded people, naturally someone needed to take care of them. The first people to be injured were the crew members guarding the ship. However, the two of them escaped because they were resting in the cabin.

That's what happened after that. These crazy people ran around in the mountains following the sound, while they hid in the cab and didn't move.

The two men said weakly, "They're really sensitive to sound. We have compressed biscuits in the cab, but they make noises when we eat them. Even though they're quiet, they can still hear them. As soon as we eat, they start banging on the door like crazy. In the end, we didn't even dare to eat."

Of course, there is water to drink.

Captain Zhang said a few words of comfort and then asked, "Is there any food on the boat? We haven't had a good meal these past few days. Let's take it out and cook it in Class A."

"Yes." The two agreed repeatedly, and then Captain Zhang followed them to the kitchen to get supplies.

It would have been fine if I hadn't gone in, but once I did, it was such a mess that I couldn't even put my feet in the room.

After he got his things and returned to Class A, Captain Zhang said, "We've been firing outside for the past few days. The interior of the cabin definitely needs to be cleaned out before we can go in and rest. It's really impossible to step inside."

"It will probably take them several days to return to normal, so let's just clean them up briefly and disinfect them so that we can rest more at ease." What Lao Gao wanted most was the air conditioning in the lounge, and that after returning to the lounge, they would have time to enter Lan Jin's space. On such a hot day, if he could have a bottle of iced Coke, he would feel that his life was complete.

Therefore, no matter how lazy he is, he still needs to do the most basic cleaning work, but it is only the most basic, and he is too lazy to take care of anything more.

…

On the deck, the fragrant curry was already cooking, and the aroma of rice had already drifted far away. Fortunately, the mutant creatures on the shore could only smell it but not taste it, otherwise they would definitely take turns jumping into the water again.

When the curry rice was finally ready, everyone had a full bowl, as if one meal could feed several people. They ate it with relish under the scorching sun.

After finishing their meal and resting for a while, everyone started to go into the cabin to tidy up.

Captain Zhang said, "There's no need to leave anyone behind in Squad A. We're in the middle of the water anyway, so whether these things can get through or not is up to you."

Unexpectedly, just as the first group of people entered the cabin, a ray of light flashed quickly through the glass.

The passing light was too sensitive for them, and subconsciously, everyone stopped in their tracks.

Captain Zhang immediately walked to the end of the team to check on the last person.

Seeing that Huang Jinghe was at the end of the team, he asked, "Were you hit by the green light just now?"

Huang Jinghe shook his head and replied, "No, I was two or three steps away from the door, so the light didn't hit me. However, the light came through the window and hit you, Captain Zhang. And, that light doesn't seem to be the green light in the dense forest."

The two captains in the bridge were confused when they heard this. "Light? Green light? So what does this light mean? We've seen this kind of light in the bridge before."

"You've seen it in the cab, but have your bodies ever been scanned by the light?" Captain Zhang asked anxiously.

But the promise was obvious. The captain replied: "The glass in the wheelhouse is so big that there is nowhere for the two of us to hide. Naturally, we were exposed to the light."

"Then did you see clearly what this light is?" Lan Jin asked seriously. Although she just glanced at it, she still felt that the color was wrong. The light she swept across was not green.

The two captains were confused, but they were absolutely certain that the light that hit them was not green. "I remember that light was very dazzling, and it seemed to be yellow, the same light as before."

"So the light just now was just ordinary light, but why is it reflecting into the cab now?"

"It's just a coincidence, an accident. Could it be that someone is sending us a signal?"

…

Signal?

Maybe it really is a signal.

Captain Zhang quickly asked, "How does that light usually shine? Is there any pattern? No, someone must be sending a signal. Our ship has already set sail, but it's parked in a different position. It can't be human-induced."

"But who would send a signal in this remote place?"

Yes, who is it?

The group had just gone down and now returned to Class A. They took the telescope in their hands and kept looking at Class A, hoping to see something.

However, after a long time, nothing could be seen clearly.

Ling Jiang said, "It shouldn't be man-made. Otherwise, we've been searching for so long, and the man-made thing would have noticed us looking for someone long ago. How could they not send signals anymore?"
