Chapter 147 Bigger than a Corpse



The camp is located on an island, and the soldiers need to patrol the sea frequently, involving ships of all sizes.

With everything ready, Xie Lin and the two little ones drifted on the azure sea.

Despite knowing that Shishi and Chou Chou were powerful, the water was unfathomably deep, with rolling waves that could not be shaken by human strength alone.

Including the patriarch, all three of them, in addition to wearing life jackets, had a rope tied to their bodies, with the other end fixed to the mast, just in case.

"Shishi, Chou Chou, you are not allowed to lean on the railing, it's dangerous. Just sit on the deck and look down. I will carefully check every spot."

"Tell me if you find anything, understand?"

He guessed that if the enemy wanted to destroy the camp, they would choose a location close to the shore, not in the deep sea.

He only needs to walk around the shore once, and he should get results.

The enemy had ambushed people in Haitong Nanwa Village in the military region, and presumably, the bombs were dropped from there.

"I know, I'm short and ugly, I can't see the water."

Shishi's friendship is worthless; she says whatever comes to mind.

Ugly didn't refute; he was already a short man anyway.

Just hearing Xie Lin's words about looking down from the deck, it was clear that he knew about Shi Shi's X-ray vision ability.

His gaze swept over the two of them, then he pursed his lips, remained silent, and obediently sat down next to Shishi.

The idiot's mouth is even more effective at gathering supplies than she is at it; she's probably already sold herself out completely.

I regret not finding this guy sooner.

I just hope this stinky egg is a good one; if he's not, then I'll take the idiot and leave.

Xie Lin circled around in a semi-circle, starting from the starting point, to the left, and then returned to the same spot, ensuring that the corpse could see clearly.

After completing half a circle, start from the original starting point, circle to the right, and then return.

This was also the case during previous sea trials, which reduced the amount of attention they received.

Because the boat was not too far from the shore, the sound of its horn, mixed with the sound of the waves, attracted the attention of the people gathering seafood.

Some sharp-eyed military wives noticed that Xie Lin was not wearing a military uniform but civilian clothes. They quickly guessed that he was not on patrol, since their men were always fully equipped when they patrolled the sea.

They were so curious that they even forgot to pick up the seafood.

"Hey, what do you think Battalion Commander Xie is doing? He just ran one lap, and now he's running another. Judging from his clothes, he doesn't look like he's on patrol."

"Who knows? Maybe the boat was just repaired and they're testing it to see if it can run."

"Why did he bring his wife, Zhou Shi, along for the trial voyage? That doesn't make sense."

"Then what you're saying, he couldn't possibly be taking his wife out for fun, could he? Using public resources for private travel, how could he dare to do that?"

"Shut up, is this something you can just say? Battalion Commander Xie can only sail out to sea with approval from above. If you're so worried, why don't you become the leader?"

You could tell it was Yao Dandan from the sound of her gun. She appeared suddenly behind the military wives like a ghost.

"Have you collected enough seafood? Stop talking nonsense and hurry up and collect it before the tide comes in."

Liu Mei also came over carrying a bucket, with her big son, who looked like a mud monkey, by her side.

The little guy has sharp eyes; he spotted his queen on the ship early on.

If I hadn't stopped him, he might have run to the seaside and shouted for the Queen to rescue him.

Although I don't know why, with Xie Lin present, it's very likely that it was official business. If I don't know the details, I'm not qualified to judge.

My husband told me that Battalion Commander Qin was injured on the mountain, and it was only by chance that Shishi was able to rescue him because she wanted to go up the mountain to play.

And the events that have happened in the compound these past few days have made her feel that Shishi is somewhat lucky.

Where she is, big problems can be turned into small ones, and dangers can be turned into safety.

Upon seeing that it was two people, the group of military wives quickly dispersed, their mouths stopped, but they couldn't hide their curious gazes.

The people on the ship were unaware of these things.

One was piloting a boat, constantly circling around.

An eye, like a searchlight, was fixed on the sea beneath the ship.

A figure sat there, chin in hand, staring blankly, its gaze never leaving the body of a dedicated worker.

And so the ship circled the sea six times.

Xie Lin tried his best to stay within Shi Shi's line of sight. After six laps, they were not far from the receding shore, only about two hundred meters away.

Time passed slowly, and the head of the family was actually quite anxious.

He worried that the little girl's X-ray vision would be overused and detrimental to her eyes, and he was also worried that the enemy, who might be monitoring her, would notice something amiss.

Just as he was getting anxious, a cheerful little voice reached his ears.

"Stinky Egg, Stinky Egg, Corpse has seen something strange! Stop it now!"

Upon hearing this, Chou Chou, who was in deep meditation, immediately jumped up and ran towards the cockpit.

"You stinky bastard, Shishi told you to stop the boat, stop the boat now."

Xie Lin reacted quickly, pulling the shutdown system as soon as he saw the little guy running towards him.

As soon as the Corpse Brand military dog ​​finished barking, it lay down on the deck, holding a pen in one hand and pressing down on the paper with the other, and quickly sketched strange objects on the paper.

Her current form cannot stand on the water's surface, nor can it breathe underwater. She cannot drag that thing up; she can only draw it.

If Stinky Egg says this is stinky, she'll have Ugly Kill it.

"Shishi, did you find something smelly?" Xie Lin rushed over, both worried and nervous.

"I don't know. It looks strange. It's different from the stinky thing that Shishi has seen before. It's hiding under two big rocks that are close together."

"Stinky egg, shut up, Shishi needs to be drawn."

The patriarch quickly shut up, no longer daring to interfere with the painting of the corpse.

The two, one big and one small, squatted on the side, their eyes fixed intently on the direction of the strokes on the paper.

The boat stopped in the perfect spot, and the corpse was lying face down. The sketcher only needed to lift his eyelids to see the reference point, so it was like drawing from a picture, and the speed was quite fast.

Perhaps it was because lying down was inconvenient, or perhaps the waves were rocking the boat, making it difficult to draw a smooth line with a fist gripping the pen; there were jumps here and bumps there...

After she drew half of the outline, Xie Lin looked at it from left to right and felt that this thing looked somewhat familiar.

If it really is that powerful bomb, judging from its shape, the energy it contains must be enormous.

The shockwave from a bomb exploding in water is far more powerful than that from one on land, sometimes several times stronger.

Shishi's drawing style is different from others. Instead of starting with the overall outline and then drawing in detail, she draws from left to right, whether it is the outside or the inside.

When she finished the last stroke and looked up, she saw Chou Dan's gloomy face, so dark it seemed to drip ink.

"Stinky Egg, do you know it?"

We know each other, how could we not know each other?

Before soldiers learn mine clearance, bomb disposal, loading and unloading of guns, they first study the theory.

Theoretical knowledge comes not only from oral accounts by predecessors, but also from textbooks kept at the bottom of the box.

He had seen a bomb that looked like this in a book that explained the principles of various types of ammunition.

Shishi's drawing of just the shape intimidated him; what about the size?

"Shishi, it's Chou Chou. Can you gesture how big it is?"

Please don't think it's what he's thinking.
