With the radio on in the car, Xing Yuan lowered the car window slightly, and while the wind was blowing, he looked down at the text message from Marven Ye.
"Affected by the cold air, there will be light to moderate rain tomorrow in City S, with northeasterly winds of 3 to 4 levels, and the temperature will drop significantly. Citizens should pay attention to changing clothes. In addition, the wind is strong at sea, please pay attention to marine traffic, operations and island tourism. Safety."
The ding dong sound was the flight information and arrival time sent by Marven Ye.
Xing Yuan glanced at it and found that he had indeed booked a flight for tonight, and he would be at the S City Airport at four or five in the morning tomorrow, and the corners of his lips curled up.
[Xing Yuan: I will pick you up tomorrow.]
[Wife: No, you still have a meeting tomorrow, I'll find a hotel at random, and we'll make an appointment when you're done with your activities.]
This is what it means to leave him behind and play in S City.
Xing Yuan raised his eyebrows, but was not angry. He just opened the official website of X Lace, clicked into his SVIP account, and ordered another box of the newly developed ultra-thin insulated X Lace.
And note that it is an expedited package, and it will be delivered the next day.
Mmmm, the mood is beautiful.
When he returned to the designated hotel for the meeting, Xing Yuan even had a smile on his lips, and his appearance fascinated a group of female guests who passed by, until he walked far away, there were still people who grabbed the waiter in a loss. Asked which room Mr. Xing lived in just now.
Of course they didn't get an answer.
This night is destined to not be as peaceful as before.
In Z City, Province G, under the joint consultation of several leaders, five coast guard ships equipped with weapons quietly sailed out of the port in the dark.
And in S City, H Province, more than 100 kilometers away.
Near ten o'clock in the evening, the tourists on the beach of Yalong Bay gradually dispersed, leaving only the mineral water bottles that were not taken away and some man-made garbage.
There are cleaners carrying tools and quickly picking rubbish along the shoreline.
The ebb and flow of water dragged trash into the sea, some of it was pushed to other beaches, and some of it was swept away offshore and into the wider sea.
The outer packaging of the plastic water bottle has been damaged. It drifts with the current, ups and downs on the sea, and it drifts farther and farther toward the Paracel Islands.
A wave hit its bottle, the water bottle turned over, and sank to the bottom of the sea with the momentum of the waves, and it didn't take long for it to float upward because of the air in the bottle.
Suddenly, a huge adult tiger shark on a rampage knocked it over again.
The mineral water bottle was carried under the water and slid several dozen meters away. The tiger shark twisted its body violently, and it opened its upper and lower lip folds, revealing a mouthful of sharp teeth inside.
There was scarlet blood splattered on the bottom of the sea.
The tiger shark struggled frantically, traveled a few hundred meters on the seabed, and finally stopped near the continental shelf without any movement.
No fish dared to approach it.
Following biological instinct, they even began to migrate in groups, away from the "hunters" lurking in the dark.
The waves slapped the tiger shark's body and pushed it onward.
Pushed it all the way to the soft sand.
A few minutes later, another big, scarred fish rolled out of the water and was slapped into the bay by the surging waves.
At the same time, several night-time staff members of the Marine Monitoring and Forecasting Center of H Province got up in a hurry. After checking the information together, they called their superiors with solemn expressions.
At the Capital Airport in City B, at 12:05, Marven Ye put on his earphones and carried only a black backpack, before boarding the plane in a dashing manner.
Destination - H province, S city.
××××××××
When he came out of the airport, it was still dark and the air was a little damp. Marven Ye took a deep breath, feeling that he was alive again.
Night flights are generally not very comfortable, and even with eye masks and earplugs on, the roar of the plane and the high-altitude pressure can still make it difficult to sleep well.
Fortunately, the comfortable climate of S City brought him a little comfort.
This is much better than the ice and snow in City B!
After getting off the plane, he first found a toilet, changed his heavy winter clothes into summer clothes, stuffed the thick clothes into the cylindrical sports bag prepared in advance, and then slowly took out his mobile phone and turned it on.
Four forty in the morning.
Marven Ye just looked at the time when Xing Yuan's text message arrived.
[Lao Xing: Are you here yet?]
He looked at the reception time, it was when the plane just landed, and he didn't know if Xing Yuan had specially set a table to send him a message. Marven Ye replied [Arrived], thought for a while, and added another one, letting him continue to sleep without worrying about picking up the plane.
As a result, Xing Yuan's call arrived less than two minutes after it was sent.
"Going out?"
Marven Ye plugged in the headphones: "No, didn't I let you sleep a little longer?"
"I slept at ten o'clock last night and woke up at four o'clock. That's enough sleep time." Xing Yuan said on the other end, "What time are you in the arrival hall?"
Marven Ye looked left and right: "No. 2. You won't be at the airport, right?"
Xing Yuan didn't answer, only said: "Wait at the door, I'll be there in five minutes."
Marven Ye: "… "
Sure enough, it didn't take long, a Volkswagen Phaeton stopped beside him.
Xing Yuan pressed the car window on the passenger side and hooked him: "Get in the car."
At this time, many passengers on the same flight came out to call for a car. Marven Ye sat in the co-pilot seat calmly, and then raised the window to block all eyes from the outside.
The car drove out of the airport, and Marven Ye turned on the mobile phone navigation: "The hotel you are staying in must have been booked by the conference organizer. I wanted to live in a suite there, but I couldn't even book a standard room at all."
While driving, Xing Yuan said, "Just stay in my room?"
"No." Marven Ye waved his hand: "It's not good to be seen by someone who is interested. I found a hotel at random before boarding the plane. Just when you are in a meeting, I will take a stroll in City S first."
Xing Yuan had no objection, and it was fine for Marven Ye to live with him, but his room was full of guests from the economic and trade conference, and it was inevitable that it would be inconvenient to go in and out.
And... Although the express has a note for expedited delivery, it is still on the way at this time.
He was in no hurry at this moment.
"Where did you book the hotel?"
Marven Ye put the phone on the car stand, and tapped the screen with his fingertips: "Yalong Bay, Tianhai Resort Hotel. I heard that there is a private beach in this hotel, and there is a small pier where you can take a boat to explore the offshore. The online reviews are pretty good. ."
Xing Yuan: "It's better than public beaches."
Marven Ye leaned over while he was waiting for the red light, quickly took a bite on the neck that fell outside, and said with a smile: "It must be incomparable to the island of the boss, don't you think?"
Xing Yuan grabbed him by the neck and pressed him back and kissed him firmly.
At this time, the road was empty and they were the only car. Xing Yuan simply went to the traffic light to turn green, red and green. Then he put back Ye Wenxuan with mosquito coil eyes, licked the corner of his mouth, and stepped on the accelerator to cross the intersection. mouth.
The warm sea breeze blew the seaside city, and even brought the people on the island to a happy state, and their body and mind were secretly agitated.
After sending the person to the door of the hotel, Xing Yuan turned around and went back. Marven Ye watched the Phaeton disappear at the intersection, then turned around and was led into the hotel by the doorman.
The services and facilities of Haitian Resort Hotel are not bad. Marven Ye put down his bag and took a shower in the bathroom. After coming out, he slumped on the bed. He didn't have the energy to go to the balcony to look at the sea. He closed his eyes and fell asleep.
As a result, he missed something unusual.
When I opened my eyes again, it was already half past one in the afternoon.
Marven Ye struggled to get up from the bed, he rubbed his hair, picked up his phone and glanced.
There were several text messages, Xiang Feiying was reporting work, Adonis was asking him where he was going on vacation, Victor complained that the bald man was bullying him, Ye Shuxue said that the family wanted to buy New Year's goods, and Xing Yuan said that this afternoon and evening have business Invite him to go out to play by himself first.
Marven Ye replied one by one, until his stomach growled, he yawned and put on his clothes, ready to go out to find something to eat.
When he went downstairs, he happened to take the same elevator with a group of tourists. Marven Ye leaned in the corner, his eyes were open, and he heard a few tourists whispering to each other in his ears.
"I found several dead fish in the morning. They are still very big. I don't know what happened."
"I heard that there is a big turtle of three or four hundred pounds inside, is it true?"
"I don't know... Later, it was transported away, and I didn't see it. You said, is there any harmful substance in the water here... "
"Hey, our tour guide said that his colleague was at the public beach in Dadonghai this morning, and there were dead fish there too, it seems it was a tiger shark!"
"Hmm... that sounds scary..."
Marven Ye's left ear went in and the right ear went out. He simply plugged in his earphones and started listening to songs. He followed the group of tourists out of the hotel, clicked on X Zhongdian to find a nearby restaurant with good reviews, and then walked slowly towards the destination.
At the same time, several trucks drove into the marine monitoring and defense center of H province in S city.
The fish carcasses were carefully removed one by one, and the staff wearing protective clothing shoveled the fish carcasses into carts and sent them to the dissection laboratory.
Several leaders of H Province were far away in H City at this time. A group of people were sitting in the conference room. There were several rows of independent screens in front of them, which corresponded to the resident branches of marine monitoring centers in various prefecture-level cities along the coast of H Province.
At this time, more than a dozen screens were turned on at the same time, and the anatomy laboratories of each resident branch were in the lens.
Because this incident was first discovered in S city, and the fish carcasses were the most recovered, the director of the Oceanographic Bureau indicated that S city should start first.
The people on both ends send and receive messages via video, and when they receive the order, they start to act.
When the researcher moved the fish carcasses onto the operating table, everyone in the conference room twitched.
Lying on the operating table was a tiger shark, and a mass of unrecognizable shape wrapped around it.
That thing was gray-white in color, and its entire body was in the shape of a rhombus. It wrapped the tiger shark from its pectoral fin to its tail fin like a net.
The researcher cautiously turned the tiger shark over with a tool, and everyone saw a gray-white thorn protruding from the shark's mouth.
Presumably this "barb" pierced the tiger shark through the heart.
After the researcher checked it again, he picked out another one from the cart and carefully placed it on the next table.
This time, it was a big turtle with the same thing wrapped around it.
In the conference room, an authoritative biologist whispered: "It looks like a carnivorous sponge."
"It is indeed a carnivorous sponge." Another person said: "But carnivorous sponges are generally only active in the deep sea, and they are so large in size and so many in number. It's too weird."
A group of people stared at the hill-like fish carcasses in the cart, each of which was wrapped with a huge carnivorous sponge. These soft things gripped the huge sea fish like parasites, and then sucked their flesh.
After that, I checked the situation in other cities one by one, and most of them were the same as in S City, but there were still some fish that did not find carnivorous sponges on their bodies, and the traces of their bodies being bitten and eaten were quite obvious.
The researcher in the camera carefully touched the carnivorous sponges, and then said to the camera: "It's still alive."
Several leaders looked at the screen on the wall and didn't say much.
The author has something to say: Carnivorous sponges: deep-sea animals, ordinary ones should not have that hook, here are mutants.
×××××
#####Probably still the victory of the foodie #####
Haimin A: "What the hell is that?"
Haimin B: "Tsk, now even tiger sharks are so heavy-mouthed, tying up the PLAY."
Haimin C: "It's an animal, right? Can you eat it?"
Haimin D: "How about... get it down and try it?"
Haimin E: "Put some chili peppers and soy sauce for a salad!"
Carnivorous Sponge: "… "
The carnivorous sponge released the tiger shark and silently swam back to the deep sea.
MMP, the human world is too cruel! So brutal! ! !
Let's go home...
