937. Piao in the box (1/5)
After a night, the big ship and the platform started anchoring and headed south.
Ao Muyang first saw the salvage platform driving. This thing is similar to the boat but different. It also has a cockpit and an engine, but there are only these two points that are similar to the boat.
He once saw a large transport truck with an engine on the highway. This salvage platform is the water-based transport truck.
Two ocean monsters were galloping on the water, but their speed was not slow. The platform weighed very exaggeratedly and it was very stable on the sea. Ao Muyang could even place a cup of Coke without splashing out.
What he was curious about was not the salvage platform, but the narrow and long steamer in front.
He felt it was a warship.
Since he came to Nereus salvage company, he became interested in the flagship not far from the platform. The ship is sixty meters long and has a low front deck covered with a cannon coat, just like the water cannon of the Big Dragon.
But it is different from behind. The ship has a tall central superstructure bridge, with a comprehensive enclosed mainmast installed at the rear edge, and two double rectangular cylindrical buildings behind it. Ao Muyang saw it with a telescope and there were protruding exhaust ports on it, which looked very much like a chimney of a warship.
There are two rows of round iron covers between the cylindrical building and the main mast, but they all seem to be welded to death. There is a streamlined ball on the cylindrical flat platform. He has seen this thing many times on the warships of the Hongyang Base. Du Yulong told him that it was a fairing of a satellite communication system...
In addition, there are still cannon suits on the top of the bridge of the ship, and there are two pieces, one on one side. There is a lifeboat on the ship, which is hung on a dagger on the starboard side, and there is a device next to the dagger that looks like a missile launch...
Ao Muyang is not a veteran military fan and doesn't know much about the navy. What he knows about warships was something he made up for the past few days. In his eyes, this ship looks very much like a small warship.
But this is unreasonable. Suli helped him investigate. Nereus is just an ordinary marine treasure salvage company. Perhaps it is large in the industry and has strong strength, but commercial companies will definitely not be able to get involved with warships.
Ao Muyang originally wanted to get close to the big ship and take a closer look, but he didn't have the chance. The big ship was kept mysterious. The people on the ship never communicated with the staff on the platform. There were people on duty day and night.
It was just his suspicion. Barr, Old Frey and others did not introduce it, and he didn't have to ask.
He will be wrong if he talks too much. He is just a guide. Too much care may lead to doubt.
Two sea monsters swayed southward and finally approached a large ship.
Barr, carrying a beer bottle, pointed to the ship in the south and said, "That's the flagship of the x-deep sea, a group of country bumpkins. They don't understand the marine salvage industry at all. They plunge in and wait for their heads to burst into blood."
Ao Muyang asked, "What is their background?"
Barr shrugged and said, "Who cares? Maybe it's a rich man who wants to have fun on the sea. Believe me, Honore, they won't find any wreck treasures, they're just a bunch of shit-up sticks."
According to Ao Muyang's observation, Nereus's people are not interested in the X-deep sea, and there may have been any conflict between the two sides before.
After nightfall, everyone returned to the cabin to rest. Ao Muyang figured out the rules of the patrol team on the platform, and then took advantage of the heavy night to enter the sea.
In order to avoid suspicion, he did not wear a diving suit or an oxygen tank, and he left the black dragon on the boat to help him cover it. In this way, even if someone found out that he was in the water, he could explain: I just went to take a shower.
Silently, he sank into the sea and searched in the area with wide eyes.
The surrounding sea water depth is about 30 meters. The anchorage chosen by the two Nereus ships is a seabed hill. When you move around, the sea water will gradually deepen, with the deepest part being three or four hundred meters.
He searched gradually and did not find any discoveries about the target, but in the deep sea area he found several large boxes, which looked like coffins, with wood texture, and were tied with reefs around them with thick nylon ropes. It was obvious that someone deliberately sank them here.
Ao Muyang searched about a circle and found that there were more than ten boxes here. After he carefully observed and found that there was no danger, he approached a box and wanted to see what was inside.
The wooden box is bound with straight wooden boards. It is obviously just now made. The texture of the wood is very clear and has not been soaked in sea water.
Weirdly, the lids of several boxes have varying degrees of skew, which may be caused by the slap of waves during the water drop.
After wandering around the box, Ao Muyang wanted to see what was inside through the gap between the lid and the box, but unfortunately the gap was too small and he could not see anything.
In addition, he patted the box with his hand. The sea water shaking and the wooden board did not move. Obviously, the materials it used were very solid and the wooden board was very thick.
He carried a sharp dagger with him, and the lid of the box and the box were tied with thick nylon ropes, and there were also reefs hanging on it. It was these reefs that sank the box into the bottom of the sea.
Cut the nylon rope with a dagger and he pulled up the lid of the wooden box.
It was very easy. Perhaps the lid was made of thick wooden boards, but due to shape problems, the lid was under great buoyancy. As soon as Ao Muyang tried hard, the lid of the wooden box floated up.
Then, the three Apiaoshui floated up...
These three Apiao were three corpses. Their faces were extremely ferocious, their eyes were extremely wide, their tongues were extremely stretched, and their limbs were extremely distorted. Ao Muyang suddenly saw this kind of thing under the deep sea, which scared him to death several times!
The corpse was glaring at the gray-white eyes that had no pupils. Ao Muyang subconsciously grabbed the lid of the wooden box and pulled them down hard and locked them in.
At this moment, he noticed many scratches on the inside of the lid, and the fingers of the three corpses were twisted strangely, and his nails were all cracked!
The moment he noticed this detail, Ao Muyang realized what was going on.
Someone forced three living people into the wooden box, then tied them with stones and sank them into the bottom of the sea. The three of them were suffocated to death. Before they died, they had tried their best to struggle and tried to open the lid, but in vain...
It was too cruel to trample on the horse, and Lao Ao subconsciously shivered.
There is no doubt that a terrifying murder occurred in the nearby waters. When he thought of this, he suddenly felt something was wrong. According to his experience in watching TV and movies, when the protagonist discovered such a murder case, there were usually villain murderers behind him.
So he immediately grabbed the saber and looked back vigilantly. Behind him was the deep sea water.
He looked up again and saw that there was ordinary sea water above his head, and nothing terrible happened.
This made him feel relieved. The three corpses in the wooden box were so terrible. The murderer's methods were so terrible. He felt scared from the bottom of his heart.
