Zuo Qing raised his eyebrows, "Maybe they don't need to hold their breath?"

Wu Xiangnan stood there in a daze.

"How can you live without breathing?"

"Maybe you'll know when you meet someone."

As Zuo Qing finished speaking, the door of the office was pushed open again, and a figure wearing a dark blue Han robe slowly walked in from outside. Her long black hair was tied with a red rope and hung down behind her. In her hand, she held a slender black box, and it was unknown what weapon was inside.

"This is..." Wu Xiangnan looked at the girl in front of him, a little confused.

"A member of the Fifth Special Team, Jia Lan." Zuo Qing smiled and said, "Two months ago, she landed on the coast of the East China Sea of ​​Daxia. At that time, she frightened our night watchmen stationed there. After verifying her identity, she found her way here."

"I'm sorry to trouble you." Galan said apologetically while holding the black box.

"How can this be a problem? If it weren't for you, we wouldn't know what happened to the Fifth Special Team that day." Zuo Qing shook his head. "According to Jia Lan's description, the one who attacked them might be Wang Mian, the captain of the 004 Special Team from the future, the Mask Team. However, we have already discussed this matter with him, and he didn't know about it.

If that person really stopped time for everyone in the Fifth Special Team, all their physiological reactions would be suspended, they would not need to breathe in the ocean current, and their lives would not be in danger.

That’s why we dare to put their estimated location hundreds of kilometers away.”

After hearing this explanation, Wu Xiangnan seemed to be thinking about something.

Jia Lan couldn't help but ask, "Commander Zuo, you said you have found their location, is that true?"

Galan's eyes were full of anxiety and excitement.

More than two years ago, on the foggy sea, ever since that white-haired figure knocked her away, she fell into an unfamiliar sea.

Galan's own time is stopped and will not change due to the passage of external time, so she will not fall into a time-stop state like other team members. Perhaps this is why that person deliberately separated her from the other team members.

Fortunately, she had [Immortality] to protect her, so her life would not be in danger even if she didn't breathe, eat or drink at the bottom of the sea. She drifted in the sea for more than ten days and finally set foot on an island.

In the fog, she could not tell the direction. She could only use the limited materials on the island to make a small boat and drift alone in the fog.

And this drifting lasted for two years.

In the past two years, she has set foot on countless islands and seas, killed countless "mysteries" alone in the fog, and was defeated by more powerful "mysteries" countless times and fell back into the sea...

She had found a continent before, but it was not Daxia, but a strange country that had fallen into ruins. The documents she found there were all in strange, reptilian characters. Galan felt that these characters looked familiar, because during the Han Dynasty, she had seen a letter in the palace sent from a small country in a remote area, and it seemed that this kind of characters were used in the letter... If she remembered correctly, the country seemed to be called Wiman Joseon.

Relying on the map he had seen during the Han Dynasty, Galan tried hard to recall the location of this small country, found a direction, and set out to sea again.

Finally, two months ago, she entered the territory of Daxia.

In the past two years, loneliness and confusion were not the most terrifying things for her. She had lay alone in the coffin for two thousand years. Compared with that, two years was just a blink of an eye... But she felt a torment she had never felt before.

Perhaps it was because the person she cared about was in an uncertain state of life or death, and the anxiety and worry in her heart seemed so insignificant in the vast fog.

She didn't know how many oars she had broken, how many sails she had worn out, how many boats she had ruined... all for the sake of returning to him as soon as possible, but the reality made her disappointed and desperate again and again.

No one knows how many times she has cried alone on the boat in the past two years, how many times she has helplessly and angrily roared at the powerful "mystery", and how many times she has sunk to the bottom of the sea, longing for the arrival of a reunion in the endless darkness...

After returning to Daxia, she discovered that Lin Qiye and others had not returned, and even the Night Watchman himself was looking for their whereabouts.

Zuo Qing assured her that he would find them, so she stayed and waited for news from them.

And today, Zuo Qing told her that he might have found their whereabouts.

"Although we can't be completely sure, there is a high probability that they drifted to the vicinity of Japan along the ocean currents." Zuo Qing replied, "It's a bit risky for Wu Xiangnan to go to Japan alone, so I want you to..."

"I'll go!" Before Zuo Qing could finish, Jia Lan said firmly, "I must go!"

Seeing Jia Lan's confidence, Zuo Qing stopped talking and nodded, "Then the two of you will act together this time. When you get to the vicinity of Japan, someone from the Shangxie Society will contact you. Your mission is to find Takamagahara and the 'human circle'...

Bring back Special Squad 5."

After finishing speaking, Zuo Qing thought for a moment and continued, "If you find them, remember not to let them get involved in this vortex. This matter involves conflicts between the kingdoms of God, and it is not something that a newly promoted special team like them can get involved in. Let them come back and report directly."

"Yes." Galan couldn't wait to set off.

"But, Commander Zuo," Wu Xiangnan said hesitantly, "There is only one nameplate. How can the two of us walk in the fog?"

Zuo Qing glanced at Jia Lan and said with a smile: "Don't worry, she... doesn't need this kind of thing."

…

Japan.

Hokkaido.

Two figures stood next to the Shinkansen, looking at the city in front of them and the endless blue ocean in the distance, and took a deep breath.

"The environment here is pretty good." Lin Qiye sighed.

"Yes." Amamiya Haruki nodded slightly, "Hokkaido is a beautiful and quiet place in itself. Here you can think quietly about people..."

boom--!!

Before Amamiya Haruki finished his words, a shocking explosion was heard from afar. The ground shook violently several times and thick smoke rose from the distance.

Amamiya Haruki's expression froze.

Lin Qiye looked at him with a strange expression, "What are you thinking about quietly? Survival or death?"

"I've said it before, Hokkaido has been in unrest lately. It wasn't like this before." Amamiya Haruki shrugged.

"The explosion site seems to be a shrine." Lin Qiye took a look from a distance, "It seems to be quite large."

"It has nothing to do with us. Our goal is to repair the sword, not to join in the fun." Amamiya Haruki said calmly, "Let's go and take a taxi."

Lin Qiye was about to take a step forward when he suddenly seemed to realize something. He turned around to look at the glass sliding door behind him. The two of them were clearly reflected on the surface.

"What's wrong?" asked Haruki Amamiya.

“I don’t know…” Lin Qiye said uncertainly, “I just seemed to see a shadow flash by.”

Amamiya Haruki looked around and didn't see any strange people. "It seems that there is no one else here. Let's go get a taxi first."
