After going around in circles, they found themselves in a dead end again, with the carcass of a huge whale blocking their way. Cat and the others had already been here yesterday.
This was the first time Yamashita had traveled this far today. He couldn't help but come over to take a look. The location was very delicate. If he wasn't mistaken, the warehouse was on the other side of the obstruction!
The black cat swam up to the cat, as if to remind her of something.
The cat petted it, seemingly not in a hurry.
Suddenly, the cat patted Mu Jin, "Hehe, Mu Jin, I want to take a walk down the mountain."
Mu Jin looked at the cat. "What do you want to do?"
Cat said, "Since he's in such a hurry, let's send him to the warehouse."
Mu Jin: "Are you sure there's nothing in the warehouse?"
The cat said, "I can't be sure, but I can make sure that Yamashita Iori leaves empty-handed."
Upon hearing this, Mu Jin simply said, "Whatever makes you happy."
"Hehe." The cat chuckled, then pretended to look for a spot on the whale to cut into.
Yamashita took the bait as expected. He had his companion bring out cutting tools, find a weak point, and start cutting on the spot.
Their movements made the water murky, but after a while, they cut a passage through it. Yamashita and his companions went first, looking rather impatient.
Since Yamashita had already put in the effort, Maomao and Mujin benefited and went along.
"Young Master, they've followed us!" someone said.
Yamashita noticed it, of course, and said, "Hurry up, let's get into the warehouse first."
Before long, they found the entrance to the warehouse, and fortunately, it was almost undamaged. The whale carcass was blocking the way, seemingly creating a safe space for them.
They cut open the barrier at the entrance, and Yamashita Isamu let a few of his companions go down first.
He waited at the entrance for a while, and only went in after receiving a message that it was safe below.
The black cat suddenly became excited and circled around the cat, but as it circled, its tail was suddenly grabbed!
Mu Jin picked up the black cat and shook it, asking, "What's making it so happy?"
The cat innocently replied, "I don't know either."
She couldn't very well tell Ah Jin that Miao Miao was excited because someone was going to die, could she?
This is an instinct honed through long-term training in hell; it can smell death.
The black cat, however, was somewhat embarrassed; it was losing control of itself.
Mu Jin let go of the black cat, and as he was about to enter the warehouse, the cat suddenly grabbed him, "Ah Jin, let's go later."
Mu Jin asked her, "Why are you waiting?"
Cat: "In case... it's dangerous down there, let the one below scout ahead."
Mu Jin didn't speak, but he stopped at the entrance and didn't continue.
They waited for a while, and then someone swam up – it was Shan Xiazhi!
However, he didn't even glance at the cat and the hibiscus before swimming back quickly, as if someone was chasing him!
Five of them went down, but only Yamashita Ichiro came back up!
Mu Jin looked at the cat.
The cat exclaimed in surprise, "Oh dear, the warehouse seems dangerous!"
Mu Jin suddenly grabbed the black cat again and placed it at the entrance of the warehouse. He said, "Wouldn't it be dangerous if it went down there?"
The cat shook its head, looking innocent again, "I don't know."
The black cat also looked at Mu Jin. It wagged its tail vigorously, seemingly trying to please her, but actually it was trying to tell Mu Jin that it was not in danger!
It's unclear whether Mu Jin understood or not, but anyway, Mu Jin fixed a locator under the template and said, "It's getting late, let's go back first."
Cat nodded. Before leaving, she saw a patch of pretty red coral and picked some of it.
Actually, there was no sound in the earpieces after they passed the whale carcass, but when they returned, there were a few hissing sounds in the earpieces, and then Jiu Yebai's voice came through.
"Kitty, Mu Jin, did you hear that?"
The cat said, "I heard you."
Jiu Yebai seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. "Were you guys just going to the warehouse? The signal suddenly went out, which startled me."
The cat said, "We'll go back right away."
Before long, the two returned to the ship.
As soon as the cat boarded the ship, it handed the collected biological samples to Yu Bingxue, who had been waiting there. Then she went to check the ballast.
After she came out, Yu Bingxue excitedly came over to her and said, "The coral you brought back is something I've never seen before. It looks a lot like the deep-sea coral that the old gentleman photographed in the Arctic years ago. I'll go back to the ship now to study its DNA. Thank you so much. I'll definitely tell you first when I make any progress."
Yu Bingxue seemed genuinely happy; after speaking, she couldn't help but hug the cat.
She wasn't tired at all; she was about to return to another boat.
But the cat stopped her and asked, "Who is Mr. Song?"
Yu Bingxue said, "Song Nian is now the leading figure in the field of marine scientific research."
The cat released Yu Bingxue and let her go.
Song Nian, isn't that Song Sifan's grandfather?
The shipwreck was first discovered by the Song family's scientific expedition team, and they were also the ones who carried out the initial salvage operations...
This old man Song also participated in the search for the Eight Gates Secret Technique back then. So, it is very likely that Song Nian's expedition team did not find this place by chance, but rather, he had been searching for it all along and finally found it.
