056 Distress Signal(1/2)

The group of whales and swordfish chased each other for a while at first.

Especially the swordfish school, the explosive power is really amazing.

It kept hitting the hull.

Fortunately, the hull was out of the water, and it clanged for a while before finally giving up.

Xia Yang finally listened to Liu Li's sharing and moved next to Jiang Chen.

He asked in a low voice: "Dr. Jiang, you have been looking over there, is there something there?"

Jiang Chen nodded slightly and asked, "You also sensed it?"

"I didn't originally, but I saw you looking over there all the time, so I concentrated on giving it a try."

"I definitely felt something a little bit unknown. It was a very strange feeling."

"But it disappears when the distance is far away."

Jiang Chen knew that he must go there once in the future.

Look back.

All the way to the northeast.

The destination, Macao and Hong Kong, is 2,000 kilometers away.

The first place the "Langxu" passed was Rijijiao, and then passed through the Nansha Islands.

After adjusting its direction, the ship passed between the Xisha Islands and Zhongsha Islands more than an hour later.

Shi Lei and the others also slowly calmed down from their initial excitement.

It turns out that the nearest Xiahua land is Hainan City.

However, the other party informed me that the weather was very unstable during the week and the plane could not take off.

So I changed to go directly to Macao and Hong Kong City.

When they were still sighing at Sansha Island on the left, the correspondent informed.

A distress signal was received from the northeast, about 100 kilometers away.

Gu Ziming has been directing on this platform.

"What distress signal?"

"It's Morse code, the content is: Save me! Coordinates..."

Dai Yundao: "What else are you thinking about? Go save people!"

Shi Lei shouted: "Dai Yun!"

Dai Yun shut up immediately.

"The captain has his own arrangements. Do you want to overstep your authority?"

What Shi Lei said was already a very serious statement.

Gu Ziming waved his hand, meaning it was okay.

Asked: "What about the basic parameters of the ship?"

"Report to captain, not received."

"Drive over, find the boat and circle around it first, don't get close."

"receive!"

‘Langxu’ is heading towards the Dongsha Islands.

Dongsha Islands consists of Dongsha Atoll (Dongsha Island and Dongsha Reef), Nanweitan Atoll (reef) and Beiweitan Atoll (reef).

Among them, the reef of Dongsha Island is crescent-shaped, and it is also called Crescent Island by Chaoshan fishermen.

It covers an area of ​​1.8 square kilometers and is only 6 meters above sea level. It is composed of coral-based biodetritus accumulation.

The boat calling for help was found on the east coast of Dongsha Atoll.

In this era, the formal profession of fishermen has long since disappeared.

The fish eaten by people all over the world are mainly freshwater fish, which are farmed in cities.

The marine fishery production has been greatly reduced.

Except for a few countries that can only make a living from sea fish and build cities around the sea for breeding, there is no such thing as going out to sea for fishing.

This has also led to marine fish becoming a luxury product in this era.

An ordinary wild salmon, after several transactions, is sold to diners on their plates at a price that is almost equal to the price of tuna before the world was destroyed.

As for wild blue flag tuna, the price of a piece of meat is as expensive as a piece of fish before.

High profits mean high risks, and huge profits must be made by desperadoes.

As a result, there were people who built private boats and went out to sea to fish.

Although ten ships went out to sea, it was considered good to have two return.

But I still can't resist the temptation of money.

As time went by, it became large and even organized.

Although various countries have also cracked down.

But the navy and coast guard are still very dangerous, and they don't dare to go to sea.

These people don't even need to go to sea with their lives, so they just let it be.

This ship is actually eighty or ninety meters long.

Anything over 24 meters is considered a large fishing boat.

The ship was towing a large trawl net behind it. Part of the net was draped over the stern of the ship, and part of it was floating on the sea. It seemed to be broken.

No one was seen on the boat.

The whole ship drifted with the current, as if it had been abandoned.

Gu Ziming ordered: "Send someone to board the ship and take a look."

"Captain, can we go?" Shi Lei asked?

"You...I don't have the authority to order you, do I?"

"Let the notification go and we'll just send two people to lead the way."

"In terms of combat effectiveness, there is still a gap between my crew and yours."

"Captain, I also want to take a look." Jiang Chen raised his hand and said.

"I want to go too." Xia Yang also raised his hand.

Zhalu wanted to raise his hand, but Jiang Chen winked at him and he put it down.

Shi Lei said quickly: "Dr. Jiang, you are not combatants. Besides, we have to send you back safely."

"Miss Xia Yang can't take any risks."

Jiang Chen shook his head and said: "I am a doctor, and if anyone is infected, I can treat them as soon as possible."

Shi Lei couldn't refute, so he looked at Gu Ziming.

Gu Ziming thought for a while, nodded and said, "It's okay for Dr. Jiang to go, but Miss Xia Yang is not suitable."

Xia Yang still wanted to protest.

Gu Ziming didn't let her speak, "If you find anything worthy of your exploration, I'll bring it back to you then."

Xia Yang had no excuse like this and could only sulk.

So 'Langxu' stopped a mile away from the fishing boat and released two inflatable assault boats.

The two pilots plus Shi Lei were fully armed, and Jiang Chen also put on a body armor and helmet.

At the stern of the boat is the stern slide for retracting and releasing the trawl net, which is almost flush with the water. It is the most convenient place to get on the boat.

And two assault boats can rush up directly from there.

One driver was left to guard the assault boat, and the other ten people got off the boat one after another.

Walking at the forefront was the crew of the "Langxu" and the driver of the assault boat.

After all, they are still not very familiar with ships at sea.

Jiang Chen walked at the back.

Behind him are Liu Li, Dai Yun and Xing Ke.

When 'Lang Xu' was circling the fishing boat just now, he really couldn't see anything.

But when the Zodiac went around the boat before getting on board, a closer look revealed many new marks on the boat.

These marks range in size from large to small, with the largest being as big as a basin, while the smaller ones are as big as a fist, and are round or oval in shape.
