After a burst of crackling electricity, the captain finally answered: "Professor Jiang, it seems that something exploded at sea."
"And it smells like gunpowder..."
blast... gunpowder...
Jiang Fuyue's heart skipped a beat: "What does it look like outside from the cockpit?"
"I can't see clearly, it's all fog."
But the maritime weather forecast sent by the Maritime Safety Administration showed that today there will be no wind and no waves, and the weather will be fine. There was no fog when the temperature was lower before, but now it is almost noon, how could it be possible to suddenly fog
Maybe it wasn't fog.
But smoke!
Gunpowder!
"Professor Jiang, what should we do now?"
"Stop the flight immediately and stand by."
"yes!"
Liu Weihua ran in from the outside, his right arm was covered in blood.
"Professor Jiang, are you okay?!"
Jiang Fuyue waved her hand: "I'm fine, are you injured?"
"I bumped into a pillar during the bumps and tore the skin. It looked scary, but it didn't hurt the bones. It's a small problem."
"What's the situation in the cabin now?"
"Everyone is in a mess."
Jiang Fuyue took out a trumpet.
Liu Weihua was stunned: "This is?"
"Now I need to find out what happened before I can decide what to do next. I'll leave it to you for those colleagues outside. Can you appease them?"
Liu Weihua's expression lifted: "Yes!"
"In addition, ask the bodyguards to guard the cabin door. Once you find a stranger boarding the ship, you don't have to show mercy!"
"I see!"
"Go."
Liu Weihua took the horn, turned and left.
Soon, his firm and forceful comfort came from the cabin, and everyone gradually calmed down, and the screaming stopped.
Jiang Fuyue repaired the communication equipment as quickly as possible, and called back the number just now.
The other end seemed to be waiting for a long time, and it was picked up in an instant.
"What happened at sea?"
"Are you guys OK?"
Both sides spoke at the same time, and then both breathed a sigh of relief.
Jiang Fuyue: "There was an explosion on the sea surface for no reason, and the ship experienced strong turbulence. It is currently suspended. Some people were injured, but their lives are not in danger."
"It is right to stop sailing immediately. You have done a good job... Now the radar of the Maritime Safety Administration has monitored your specific location, which is a certain distance from the center of the explosion, and will not be affected for the time being."
Jiang Fuyue hesitated: "... So, there really was an explosion?"
There was silence.
"Is it a natural phenomenon, or a human trigger?"
"Jiang Fuyue, you have to be mentally prepared for the news that comes next." The old leader's tone suddenly sank, "Just half an hour ago, country A and country K had a fierce conflict over the territorial sovereignty of the sea. The troops were stationed 30 nautical miles away, brutally intercepting and detaining the surrounding ships."
On the way back, you have to go through there.
"So, it's right to suspend flights."
As long as they go 10 nautical miles ahead, they will be discovered by the sentry. Once detained, they may become hostages in international negotiations.
If you are lucky, you can survive. If you are unlucky, you will be buried in the sea without even finding your body.
Even though Jiang Fuyue had a strong psychological quality, she couldn't help but break into a cold sweat after listening to it.
"What should we do next?"
"For now, the safest way is to return to Duofu."
"Are you sure the conflict will not spread to the island?"
The old leader chuckled lightly, but brought out the aura of thousands of troops: "Duofu is China's territory, and anyone who violates our territory will be punished no matter how far away!"
Jiang Fuyue nodded: "Understood."
Ending the call, she immediately ordered—
"Return at full speed!"
Everyone in the cabin who heard the announcement was dumbfounded—
"Return? How to return?"
"Why? What happened?"
"Didn't we just leave for a while, why do we suddenly have to go back?"
"Because of the weather? No, it's sunny outside."
"Maybe it has something to do with the loud noise and turbulence just now?"
"It felt like something big was happening."
"Don't scare me, I'm timid, the more I listen, the more panicked I become..."
In the end, Liu Weihua stood up with a loudspeaker: "Everyone, be quiet! Listen to me! Professor Jiang must have her reasons for doing this. I have doubts in my heart just like everyone else!"
"But there are priorities. Let's execute the order first. If you have any questions, wait until you return to the island. I believe Professor Jiang will give you a satisfactory explanation!"
"So, I implore everyone to actively cooperate with the work first?!"
After Liu Weihua yelled, he didn't bother to catch his breath, and stared at everyone's reaction.
Fortunately, everyone is a reasonable person, and they also listened to these words—
"Doctor Liu is right!"
"We are willing to cooperate!"
"Support Professor Jiang's work together!"
…
On the calm sea, the blue stretches to the sky, and you can't see the edge at a glance.
Under the sun, the sea water becomes clearer.
At this moment, five large ships gradually approached from afar.
Five hours after leaving the island, they returned.
The people working on the hillside were stunned in place—
"I'm afraid I'm dazzled?"
"It's close! It's close! It's really Professor Jiang and the others! Why are you coming back here?"
"Hurry up! Go tell the patriarch..."
Soon someone ran outside Fan's small bamboo building and shouted at the top of his voice—
"Clan, patriarch! Something big has happened! Go to the pier and have a look!"
"What's up?"
"Jiang, Professor Jiang and the others are back!"
Fansheng immediately put down his chopsticks and ran towards the pier.
"Father, wait! I'm going too!"
Fanye chased after her so closely that she even forgot to close the door.
When the father and daughter arrived at the pier, the boat had successfully landed, and Jiang Fuyue got off the boat with the team.
I saw everyone supporting each other, all in a mess and in a trance.
Fansheng immediately realized that something was wrong, and immediately went to ask Jiang Fuyue: "What happened?"
She waved her hand wearily: "Check everyone's injuries first, and we'll talk about the rest later."
"good."
Fansheng and Fanye started to help.
Originally, everyone was a doctor and had the most basic ability to judge injuries. If you encounter inconvenient situations, you can also ask your colleagues to help each other to bandage and apply medicine.
Fu Suizhong got the news from nowhere, and hurried over with a medicine box.
Liu Weihua made a general inspection tour, and after questioning, he reported to Jiang Fuyue: "It's all skin trauma, just stop the bleeding and prevent infection. Doctor Xu suffered the most severe injury, with a fractured little finger, which has been immobilized and is currently in good condition."
Jiang Fuyue nodded, "Thank you for your hard work. Please take care of Dr. Xu."
Liu Weihua: "I know, don't worry."
People who have rested, their brains are starting to work again—
"Professor Jiang, what happened? Can you tell me now?"
"Yeah, why did you bring everyone back to the island?"
Jiang Fuyue didn't hide anything, and told the truth about what she learned from the leader.
Everyone was stunned.
Unexpectedly, such a thing as "war" in peacetime would fall on them.
But more still fear.
If Jiang Fuyue hadn't ordered the suspension of the voyage, and they plunged into the blockade area of the two countries, the consequences... would be unimaginable!
"I've got goosebumps."
"It turns out that the god of death was once a step away from us."
"I'd rather sail back to the island than be detained."
"It turns out that the plot of the TV series is true."
"...then how long are we going to stay on the island?"
Jiang Fuyue shook her head: "The time is uncertain."
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and finally couldn't help but feel depressed.
…
Back to the prefabricated house where I lived for nearly four months, everyone has mixed feelings.
worried? There must be some, after all, they are trapped and cannot return home.
But I am also fortunate that I did not enter the blockade of A and K. Now that I return to Duofu, at least my personal safety can be guaranteed. If it falls into the hands of war elements, ordinary people like them may die.
"So, there is nothing to complain about. Instead, I want to thank Professor Jiang. It was her decisive decision that saved our lives."
"Since it is here, let it be safe."
"There is still hope in life!"
"Anyway, the scenery on the island is pretty good, and we have gotten to know the people on the island well during this period of time, so we will stay here for a vacation after completing the mission."
"..."
A group of people began to comfort each other, and the low morale gradually eased.
However, what everyone didn't know was that although they escaped by chance, other fishing boats were not so lucky.
According to news reports two days later, three fishermen were taken hostage.
Fortunately, it was finally redeemed safely.
At the same time, the Maritime Safety Administration is actively contacting A and K to temporarily withdraw the blockade and release Huaxia's five cargo ships.
However, it was rejected by both parties.
It's enough to let you redeem the hostages, why? Still want to make an inch
Jiang Fuyue, as a Lasker and Nobel Prize winner in the field of biomedicine, is related to the security of the national biochemical strategy at a large scale, and is a scientific research talent that cannot be lost, not to mention there are so many medical workers.
Safety is the most important thing. As the old saying goes, if you stay in the green hills, you will not worry about having no firewood. As for when you can go back, it depends on how the three parties negotiate.
But generally speaking, not too fast.
After all, as bargaining chips, scientific researchers are much more valuable than ordinary fishermen.
"It doesn't matter! International negotiations like this are all about grinding. Be patient and grind with the other party slowly. After a long time, your attitude will definitely soften."
"Yes, which international negotiation have you seen that can be concluded in one go? We need to give the motherland some time."
"In fact, it's not bad to nest on the island. You can eat and drink, and it's no different from outside."
"But my son misses me..."
As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent.
Yes, no matter how good you are, you have no relatives or friends.
The high pressure and fear of the past few days were completely detonated by this sentence, and I could no longer control it.
Some were weeping softly, others were crying loudly.
All of a sudden, there was a sound of crying.
Jiang Fuyue stood outside the board room, watching the situation inside, the corners of her mouth tightened.
Liu Weihua sighed: "Don't blame everyone, they... have been too tense for the past two days, maybe it's a good thing to cry."
"I know."
After speaking, Jiang Fuyue turned and left.
In fact, she also fell into an inexplicable depression. She couldn't sleep, couldn't eat well, and couldn't cheer up anything.
This kind of emotion came too suddenly, and it was very unreasonable.
For a time, Jiang Fuyue wondered if she had some serious illness.
She went back to the room, locked it, and shut herself in.
Then he took out his mobile phone and dialed Xie Dingyuan's number.
The screen flashes twice, a red cross appears, and then hangs up automatically.
Yes, there is no mobile phone signal on the island, and calls cannot be made at all.
Jiang Fuyue knew, but she still wanted to call that number.
The radio communication equipment on the ship can be used, but it is a "public device" and cannot be used for "private use". There are regulations.
And that thing also has the function of recording and recording. If she uses the device to contact Xie Dingyuan, what she said will be recorded one by one, and she will be audited by the superior department after she returns.
Too troublesome!
In addition, Xie Dingyuan was still in Continent F, so even if he called, he would have to go through layers of messages, and it was impossible to get in touch with him immediately.
Jiang Fuyue had no choice but to give up and dismiss this idea.
Although I can't make a phone call, but fortunately there is an internet connection, and I can still get in touch with the outside world. But last night, the network signal was blocked for no reason, and now it is completely unusable.
The mobile phone has been reduced to a decoration, and they have also become birds in a cage, catching turtles in an urn, isolated on the island, and completely separated from the outside world.
That's why everyone is so anxious and panicked that they lose control of their emotions.
Jiang Fuyue threw away the phone in frustration, lay on the bed, and gradually fell asleep.
She had a dream, in which two piglets were twisting their buttocks at her, and then they rubbed against her, rubbing their soft snouts against her calf.
Jiang Fuyue thought it was cute, so she casually picked up the two little ones by their nape, and hung them in the air.
The two little pigs purred, as if in protest.
The more she looked at it, the more curious she became, and she couldn't help touching their pig tails.
The four hooves of the two little pigs are kicking wildly in mid-air, it's really cute, help!
Jiang Fuyue woke up with a lingering smile on her lips.
Just at this moment the chef came to ask her what she would have for dinner, Jiang Fuyue blurted out: "Pig tail roots."
chef:"?"
"It needs to be marinated."
"… okay!"
This night, everyone ate the stewed pig tail, and the aroma lingered on the tip of the tongue, so don't enjoy it too much.
The mood in the afternoon came quickly and went quickly.
Up to now, I can only wait patiently, one day at a time.
As everyone knows, Jiang Da and his wife, who had originally received the news of Jiang Fuyue's return from outside the island, but have not seen the child's return for a long time, are already anxious!
The two of them had no connections, no privileges, and couldn't get any news at all.
"It's been five full days, why haven't you come back?"
"There must be something wrong here!" Han Yunru said firmly, "No, I have to find a way..."
Five seconds later, she asked Jiang Da: "Call the old men on both sides now! They have connections and contacts, and they will definitely be able to find out some inside information!"
Jiang Da nodded: "Okay! I'll fight right away!"
In the afternoon of the same day, Han Qishan and Xie Zhendong who heard the news began to use their connections to inquire about Jiang Fuyue's situation.
Finally in the evening, I learned of Jiang Fuyue's trapped Duofu.
The couple were startled and frightened—
"How did this happen? Fortunately... fortunately, Yueyue and the others hid quickly and were not detained..."
Yesterday the news was still reporting that the three fishermen were finally rescued, but suffered severe physical and mental injuries and needed long-term treatment.
"Are you sure Yueyue is safe now, right? Amitabha!"
"People safe is good!"
"Did you say when you'll be back?"
this problem…
Han Qishan and Xie Zhendong looked at each other with seriousness flashing across their faces.
Suddenly, Fu Wanxiu asked, "Do you want to tell A Yuan?"
