While Wei Ran and Sui Sui were visiting the ancient city of Vigan in a chartered sightseeing carriage, the USS Halsey destroyer that Xia Shushi was aboard was about to sail to the Guam Naval Base.
Along the way, he also accepted two additional supplementary interviews as a "member of Kou Kou's historical advisory group."
On one occasion, he even recalled the magnificent period of World War II in a symposium on board the USS Bunker Hill guided missile cruiser, the flagship of the destroyer squadron, together with the French rich woman Coco and the head of the US Navy.
History.
Fortunately, without Wei Ran, a bastard who doesn't talk about the door, this interview went particularly smoothly. On the other hand, perhaps because he saw the power of the Indian housekeepers Tantu and Wei Ran, these two interviews were really good.
No one who is blind would dare to ask questions with ulterior motives.
Even in the symposium and interview, the three parties chatted harmoniously about the previous brilliant achievements of the "well-known historian Victor Wei Ran" and the French girl Kou Kou's obsession with Indian culture - of course, the premise of all this is that Wei Ran
Not there, and neither was the Indian housekeeper.
Now, all those who should be interviewed have been interviewed, Guam is getting closer and closer, and Xia Shushi has completed his task.
However, he didn't know that in the bridge diagonally above him, the lieutenant colonel who had been interviewed with him was holding a telescope and looking back and forth between him and Kou Kou, who was also blowing the sea breeze not far away.
Looking at it.
Next to the lieutenant colonel, there was a man wearing a suit and leather shoes, also holding a telescope in his hand.
"Tell me what you think." As the lieutenant colonel spoke, the telescope was still close to his eyes.
"The good-luck French girl and her Indian spokesman?"
"There is also the Chinese man below, and the Chinese historian who spoke out loud before."
"I'm afraid that French girl wants to be tied up with the Indians."
The man in a suit standing next to the lieutenant colonel chuckled and said, "Ethnic minorities, divorced, women, and descendants of an American hero. Such a spokesman will be very popular even if he speaks unabashedly. Generally speaking,
She is a fairly smart girl, and she should be able to keep the huge wealth she inherited."
"Where are the two Chinese people?" the lieutenant colonel continued to ask.
"The one on the deck, plus he is very skilled in rhetoric. He might be an excellent politician in the future."
The man paused and continued, "I guess the young man on the deck is probably the spokesman specially invited for himself by the historian Victor who has left."
The lieutenant colonel snorted coldly, "Does that unabashed historian also know his own shortcomings?"
"I'm afraid so"
The man in a suit standing next to him also had a little more sarcasm in his tone, "I found a video of Victor's previous interview yesterday. Although he is indeed somewhat famous, as you just said, he does not hold back his words.
idiot.
In previous interviews, Victor has publicly ridiculed the Poles more than once. Especially on Eastern European and Russian online platforms, he has been very controversial.
A considerable number of Russians like his bad attitude towards the Poles, and a considerable number of people feel that he, a bastard from China, is provoking conflicts between Poles and Russians."
"How can there be such a lucky idiot in this world?" When the lieutenant colonel said this, he finally put down the telescope in his hand.
"According to public information, that bastard named Victor has made quite a lot of achievements in the professional field, but according to my experience, these scholars often can't hold too much in their brains.
They are not sociable and not good at dealing with interviews, but when talking about their professional fields, they are very talkative and forgetful and even subconsciously ignore the situation. I even doubt that all the interviews he accepted in Russia were done after It’s the rehearsal.”
"You mean, that Victor is like Sean Murphy in The Good Doctor?"
"Perhaps it would be more accurate to use the analogy of Sheldon from The Big Bang Theory," the man in a suit following the lieutenant colonel said with a smile, "He is a conceited and stupid genius."
"Such people are more annoying than real idiots."
After the lieutenant colonel finished speaking, he brought the topic back, "Let's get back to business. We are arriving in Hong Kong soon. It's time to set the tone for the following press conference."
"How do we do that?"
"Help the rich woman publicize her friendship with the Indians. This will just appease the ethnic minorities in the country and give a pacifier to those primitive people who only know how to waste their lives in casinos."
The lieutenant colonel thought for a moment and then continued, "Put all the main credit for discovering Captain Evans on that French girl and that Chinese Sheldon.
Nowadays, the idiots on the Internet are so quarrelsome that we just need a topic to divert our attention. I am looking forward to the pitiful appearance of that conceited and stupid genius quarreling with others on the Internet.
He will definitely help us attract enough firepower by then, and it would be best if the anger of those recruiting monkeys could be transferred to him."
"Should we contact that Victor?"
"No, I don't want him to say anything stupid again. As long as Miss Coco and her equally troublesome spokesperson attend the next press conference, it will be fine."
The lieutenant colonel pointed to the window he had just passed, "Also, before the press conference, send that young Chinese man on the deck away quickly. I don't like to deal with smart people. They are much harder to deal with than idiots." .”
"I'll make arrangements right away," the man in a suit said, then stopped, turned around and ran towards the bridge again.
Not long after, a carrier-based helicopter took off in a circle amidst the roar of propellers, taking Xia Shushi to Guam, which was only a hundred kilometers away. It was clear that he wanted to catch up with the nearest passengers who left Guam today. One flight.
Although they were thousands of kilometers apart, when Xia Shushi left the destroyer, Anfiya immediately got the news from the news posted on Tantu's social platform.
After informing Weiran about this situation, the Katenka sisters, who were on vacation, only paid attention to the scolding war on the Internet, and then continued to focus on the joy of taking Lola to find delicious food in the ancient city of Vigan. superior.
In contrast, Aniya left the hotel where she was staying and rushed to the airport alone. She just said hello casually and boarded the flight to Sydney.
In the evening, Wei Ran and Suisui, who had enjoyed their time, took a carriage and rushed to a Spanish restaurant on the side of the hotel entrance to meet the Katenka sisters and Lola. They also saw Xia Xia, who had returned from Guam in a dusty way.
Soseki.
"Have you seen Sha Laomei's press conference?" Xia Shushi asked Wei Ran as soon as they met.
"I didn't see it, what's wrong?" Wei Ran asked confused. He really didn't know that he had been wandering around this small seaside town with Suisui all day long.
“Nothing”
Xia Shushi glanced at Suisui who was sitting side by side with Wei Ran, as well as the Katenka sisters and Lola at the next table, and said with a haha, "Although you didn't catch up, you are famous this time, silly
Laomei’s navy even thanked you by name.”
"Then I really thank them." Wei Ran responded with a playful smile, then casually changed the subject and said, "Hurry up and order the food."
Hearing this, Xia Shushi wisely said nothing more, took the menu from the waiter, and ordered some recommended dishes.
The people at two tables next to each other finished a sumptuous dinner in a lively manner. The girls returned together to the hotel less than 50 meters away. Wei Ran, who was in charge of the checkout, and Xia Shushi, who was rushing to pay the bill, lagged behind.
"Silly Laomei probably plans to use you as a gunman."
As Xia Shushi walked back, he also lit a slender cigarette, "I also asked why you were so kind and specially used a helicopter to bring me to the airport. The co-author didn't want me to attend their press conference."
"What did they say in their press conference?" Wei Ran asked with great interest.
"Putting the credit for discovering Captain Evans and others on you and your rich boss, and by the way, it also helped publicize the friendship between Coco and the Indians."
Xia Shushi sneered and said, "I use Kou Kou to appease the ethnic minorities in the country, and I use you to deflect external conflicts. This silly beauty has only been doing these three things for so many years."
"In that case, let's give them something back." Wei Ran said, casually handing a piece of paper with coordinates written on it to Xia Shushi.
"What is this?" Xia Shushi asked in confusion. "The longitude and latitude coordinates of the sinking of DD-557"
Wei Ran lowered his voice slightly and said that these coordinates were naturally the set of coordinates provided by the metal book. The only difference was that the ones he provided to Xia Shushi were not that accurate and were only accurate to one decimal place.
"What did you say?!" Xia Shushi exclaimed, then closed the notes he was about to open again.
"Keep your voice down"
Wei Ran deliberately looked around, lowered his voice again and said, "I found this set of coordinates in Hawks's notes. At that time, this set of coordinates was written on a piece of cigarette paper alone, with dd written on it.
—557. I estimate that this is the location where the Johnston sank. Maybe Captain Evans wrote it down before abandoning the ship."
"Take that note."
"Who in Landlord will play all the good cards?"
Wei Ran pretended to be proud and said, "Wait patiently. When the heat of this matter has passed and everyone has forgotten about it, I will provide this set of coordinates to Kou Kou in your name, and then let Kou Kou find a place to salvage it."
Go to the company or deep diving agency to confirm, and then you can follow suit."
"In my...my name?" Xia Shushi asked dully. "Kou Kou is a truly rich woman."
Wei Ran patted the other party on the shoulder, "If you give this set of coordinates to the other party, you can get tens of thousands of dollars at least. If you cooperate well with Kou Kou, maybe you can become popular, and this matter is very important to Kou Kou.
Coconut is also good. Of course, if you have the ability, you can find a magnet and fish it out yourself."
"Where in the world can I find such a good magnet?"
Xia Shushi shook his head in confusion, and carefully put the piece of paper in his hand, which was no bigger than a business card, into the interlayer of the phone case, "You are very generous, this set of coordinates is a big discovery."
Wei Ran smiled and said, "If you don't want to be a gun user like me, you'd better stand behind the scenes."
After saying that, he ignored the complicated expression on Xia Shushi's face and walked quickly towards the hotel.
