Twenty minutes later, when a dark blue Red Arrow-class missile speedboat appeared in sight, all the passengers on the deck had already returned to their cabins, and a few of them who didn't want to go back were directly thrown back by Qiu Peng.

A 26-7-year-old man lay opposite Xu Lang, with a thin face showing ease. At this time, he was chatting with Xu Lang indifferently.

"Hey, buddy, what's going on? Why did it suddenly turn from morning to noon? Is that heavy fog lasting more than 6 hours? Why don't I think it's not that long, it's only about ten minutes."

"How the hell do I know." Xu Lang took out two cigarettes from the cigarette box and threw them to the opposite side. "I knew I hadn't finished my breakfast, but unfortunately the few remaining small buns I had."

"Hey, buddy, you're so funny. When is it time for you to remember your buns? Did you think that the fog was caused by someone on purpose?"

"impossible."

"Why is it so certainly impossible for you? I think it's like."

"Use your brain, the fog comes from the sea, not from the ship. Besides, after you didn't notice that even the captain was a little at a loss when the fog dissipated, even the captain was a little at a loss? Even if someone was making a fool, he was definitely not on the ship. But if you want to make such a big fog on the sea, who has the ability to do that?

"It makes sense, let alone, your analysis makes sense. By the way, I have been in the same house for several days and I don't know what you are called, what do you call me?"

"Am I, Xu Lang, high school Chinese teacher, where are you?"

"Teacher, no wonder I'm so smart. My name is Sun Tianhao, I'll do some small business and make trouble."

A rubber boat was placed on the No. 777 missile speedboat. Captain Jiang Beiming was sitting on the rubber boat with two naval soldiers and drove towards the Pearl. The three of them were carrying a Type 03 automatic rifle.

"Captain." Qiu Peng looked at the rifles on the rubber boat, then looked at the fire axe in his hand, as if he wanted to say something, but Zhang Guodong interrupted him: "It's useless to say anything else, let them get on the boat."

Jiang Beiming gave a standard military salute to Zhang Guodong: "Captain of the No. 777 missile speedboat of the People's Liberation Army Navy, Navy Captain Jiang Beiming."

Zhang Guodong returned a standard naval salute: "Zhang Guodong, captain of the East China Sea Pearl cruise ship." Then, for some reason, suddenly added another sentence, "Former Chinese People's Lieutenant Colonel."

Jiang Beiming bowed slightly and added: "Old Chief."

There were only two people on the Pearl that could accommodate 150 people at the same time. There were only two people Zhang Guodong and Jiang Beiming sitting in the restaurant on the Pearl. A navy sergeant stood straight at the door holding a rifle, while Qiu Peng and several crew members also stood loose on the other side.

Zhang Guodong quietly stared at Jiang Beiming, who was in his 30s, and finally spoke first: "Comrade Captain, do you say first or I say first?"

"You'd better say it first." Jiang Beiming answered slightly melancholy.

"Okay." Zhang Guodong sighed helplessly, "We encountered a strange fog. Of course, I think you also encountered it. After the fog, our ship had some incomprehensible situations. First, the time changed from 6 am to 12:50 noon. Second, all GPS and communications on the ship were completely interrupted. Except for you, we could not find any radio signals from ports and ships. Third, our original location was near Zengmu Ansha, but now we are near Sanya, Hainan. I think you should be the same as us, because before the fog, you were just going to chase us from our starboard side."

"Yes." Jiang Beiming said, "We have encountered the exact same situation, time, direction and communication. Except for you, we cannot contact any ports, ships, including naval bases, whether they use clear codes or passwords."

"So, Captain, what do you think we should do next?"

"That's what I think, Captain Zhang." Jiang Beiming suddenly lowered his voice, "First of all, we can't wait here, and reality does not allow us to float on the sea just like this. Since we all agree that we are near Sanya, I think we should go back to Sanya to see what happened. No matter what happens, I think it's the best choice for us to return to the port of our motherland."

Zhang Guodong thought quietly for a while, then said, "Since that's the case, I agree with your solution, because we must now figure out what happened. Fortunately, with your Navy here, I'm still more at ease. But I still have one question to ask for."

Jiang Beiming hurriedly said, "I dare not be accused of asking you. You are the old leader. If you have any questions, please ask."

Zhang Guodong also lowered his voice: "Do you think this matter is artificial?"

"Old leader." Jiang Beiming said, "To be honest, I don't know, but judging from what I know now, the possibility of man-made is very small. Who has the ability to transfer two such a large ship, especially your ship must have more than 2,000 tons, and who has transferred such a large ship in an instant? As far as I know, the United States cannot do it."

"I think so too, but it's okay to say it if it's artificial. If it's not, it's really troublesome. But what you say is fake now. When we return to Sanya, we will understand. You go back now, we keep in radio contact and go to Sanya together. By the way, do you have enough fuel?"

"Enough, we still have half of the fuel left, and we can still run more than 800 nautical miles. Where are you?"

"It's almost the same, then I decided to go back to Sanya first."

Sanya City is located at the southernmost end of Hainan Island, between 18°09′34″-18°37′27″ north latitude, 108°56′30″-109°48′28″ east longitude. It is adjacent to Lingshui County in the east, Baoting County in the north, Ledong County in the west, and Nanhai in the south.

The two ships are now at 109 degrees east longitude and 18 degrees north latitude and 40 minutes north latitude. One minute is equal to one nautical mile. That is to say, you can return to Sanya by sailing about 30 nautical miles north. This location is still very close.

Half an hour later, with two long whistles, the No. 777 missile speedboat and the East China Sea Pearl cruise ship set sail at the same time and headed to Sanya. In order to take care of the Pearl's speed of up to 20 knots, both ships set their speeds at 18 knots. One and a half hours later, at around 3:30 pm, Sanya Bay on Hainan Island appeared in sight, but at the same time, the two ships stopped again. Radio communication began to get busy again.

"This is the speedboat No. 777, calling Pearl, please answer when you receive it." This time, Jiang Beiming couldn't hold back his anger.

"This is the East China Sea Pearl. I am the captain Zhang Guodong, please speak."

"Old Chief." Jiang Beiming's tone was a little quick, "Did you see something in the telescope?"

"It's a bit strange when I saw it. Looking at the terrain, we did arrive in Sanya Bay, but why did there be no buildings? I'm talking about the buildings I remember, and I often come to Sanya Bay."

"Yes, yes. But have you seen the building in Sanya Bay now?"

"See, Captain, I think you'd better go to my boat again. Things are so strange."

"Okay, I'll go there right away."
