Chapter 2: Reappearance of the Old Times (2)

Through the automatic control system, Zhao Zhenzhong opened the lifesaving compartment to close the isolation door and took the lead in walking towards the ship's central command and control room. Zhou Tian and Zhou Hao followed behind with serious expressions.

When Zhao Zhenzhong smelled the air, his heart suddenly tightened, and he wanted to speed up his pace, but now the unfit shoes made him unable to get up.

"What does it smell?" Zhou Hao, who was walking behind, asked, sniffing his nose.

"The smell of blood! Don't talk nonsense, be careful." Zhou Tian turned around and glared at him.

When Zhou Hao heard his sister's reply, he numbed his scalp and quickly responded to her and walked forward.

After walking for a while, the three of them came to the central command and control room of the ship.

The scene that caught my eye made Zhao Zhenzhong's heart sink to the bottom: there were ten people in the control room, including Captain Chen Ming, but now all of them are bleeding from their seven orifices and fall into their fixed seats. However, these ten people are still the same, and they are not like Zhao Zhenzhong and the other three who have become teenagers and children around ten years old.

Seeing that the blood flowing out of Chen Ming and others had solidified into purple-brown, Zhao Zhenzhong still refused to give up and asked with a hint of luck: "Zhou Tian, ​​please take a look, is there any help?"

Zhou Tian sighed, walked up to take a closer look, shook his head and said, "It's impossible, they all died for more than 24 hours."

Zhao Zhenzhong walked to the command console and saw that the various systems of the ship were still operating normally. He looked at the sonar and instrument carefully, and turned around and said, "At first, the ship system is basically normal now. Let's go to find the other ten members together." After pausing, Zhao Zhenzhong said, "Let's check it separately. I check the ship's navigation log and ship's operation record to find out the reasons for this serious consequences; Zhou Tian is not familiar with the ship, so check the surveillance image and search for the locations of other members. This is relatively simple; Zhou Hao is familiar with the ship's fire control, so he carefully checks the overall status of the ship and the operation of each system."

Zhou Tian and Zhou Hao agreed and went to the corresponding position of the console to start operating.

Twenty minutes later, Zhou Tian said: "I've finished checking. Judging from the surveillance images, there were two members in the restaurant, two members in the library, three members in the crew activity room, and three members in the bedroom. However, from the images, they seemed to have encountered an accident."

Zhou Hao also said: "I have basically checked this and the overall condition of the ship is good. Except for the sonar and the communication system, several sets of equipment were damaged, the other systems are basically normal."

Zhao Zhenzhong stopped the cause of the accident that was being searched and said, "Okay, let's find these ten members first."

After more than an hour of busyness, the three of them returned to the command and control room. The bodies of ten members in the room have been transferred to the storage and freezing room for temporary storage.

"Twenty-three people, only three of us are left. But we are like this again now..." Zhou Tian sighed and said quietly.

"First determine our current location, find the cause of the accident, contact the country and talk about something else." Zhao Zhenzhong looked at the two and said, "There are only three of us left now. We must be more careful and serious, and strive to find the cause of the accident and drive the ship back to China safely."

Zhou Tian nodded.

Zhou Hao asked: "Old Zhao, has the ship's position not yet determined?"

"Something happened. Compared with the contents of the ship's Shanghai map database, it was impossible to find a chart that matched the current sea area, so it was not finalized." After pausing, Zhao Zhenzhong said again, "Now the ship is at the bottom of the sea at a depth of more than 100 meters. My personal preliminary judgment is that we may be near the Yellow Sea or East China Sea waters now."

"Then let's go up and contact the country, and confirm through satellite positioning, isn't it enough?" Zhou Hao asked.

"How to contact? All other people on the ship were killed, but three unidentified children suddenly appeared on the ship?" Zhao Zhenzhong smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Even if the country is sure that the three of us are the original personnel on the ship, can you make them believe in the changes that have happened to us? If it weren't for the fact that this kind of thing happened to me, I wouldn't believe it even if I was beaten to death."

"We will definitely face endless review and research after we go back." Zhou Tian's face turned pale.

"Sister, do you think of research? It's like studying a guinea pig?" Zhou Hao's face began to change, "But we don't know anything at all! He woke up in a lifesaving compartment."

"We are the only three remaining people on the ship. Even if the accidents on the ship have nothing to do with us, the fact that we suddenly turn from an adult into a teenager will inevitably be studied." Zhou Tian sighed and said, "Even a child with extraordinary intelligence will be examined and studied by the hospital, let alone the fantastic and incredible things happening to us."

"I don't want to be a guinea pig and be locked in a cage, and I have to be sliced ​​and studied." Zhou Hao said anxiously, "How about the three of us won't go back?"

"Not to mention the country, any country in the world who knows what happened to us will want to study us. Rejuvenation is a miracle of life that only exists in myths and legends." Zhao Zhenzhong mercilessly broke Zhou Hao's fantasy.

"What should I do?" Zhou Hao felt like he was about to collapse.

"Let's float up first and check the situation through satellite positioning." Zhao Zhenzhong shook his head helplessly.

Before coming to the command console, Zhao Zhenzhong found the corresponding control system and started the operation. He first changed the power supply through the automatic operating system, replaced the No. 6 metal hydrogen energy that was exhausted with power to No. 5 energy, so that it could provide power energy for the propulsion system. Then he operated the ship gradually floated to the depth of the periscope and raised the periscope to check.

"Old Zhao, you are so good! Even the ship can be controlled." Zhou Hao watched Zhao Zhenzhong operate in an orderly manner, and couldn't help but stare at him in surprise and asked, "When did you learn? When did you teach me?" Zhou Tian looked at Zhao Zhenzhong busy with concentration.

"I have learned how to drive a ship before, but I have been a long time. If you are interested, I will talk to you later." Zhao Zhenzhong answered while observing the outside through the periscope.

“What does it look like outside?”

"It's night now, and the observation range is limited. We will float up later and you can see." Zhao Zhenzhong said, retracting the periscope and starting to control the ship to continue floating. After the ship rises out of the water, Zhao Zhenzhong continues to operate, first turn on all the ventilation equipment on the ship, and clean up the dirty air mixed with bloody smell inside the ship. At the same time, raise the lifting radar to the highest point and start positioning the ship through the satellite navigation system.

After more than ten minutes, the bloody smell on the ship dissipated. However, the satellite navigation system was turned on but found that there was no satellite signal. Zhao Zhenzhong did not give up and contacted other satellite communication equipment on the ship, but found that many equipment in normal working conditions still did not receive any satellite transmission signals. After more than half an hour of busyness, there was still no effect. Zhao Zhenzhong gave up on continuing operations of the satellite communication system a little dejectedly.

Zhou Hao, who was standing beside him, hurriedly asked, "How is it? Have you confirmed the location? Have you contacted me?" Zhou Tian also stared at the side with concern.

"There is no satellite signal." Zhao Zhenzhong shook his head, "It can only be roughly judged by the positioning of the constellations." After saying that, he started to be busy again.

Fortunately, the sky was clear and the stars were visible tonight. Using the observation and recording of the sky constellation position, the ship's location was quickly concluded through the calculation of the navigation and command system on the ship, but it was not as accurate as the satellite navigation position.

"We are now in the Yellow Sea waters, about 70 nautical miles from the nearest Jiaodong Peninsula, and about 150 nautical miles from the North Sea Fleet." Zhao Zhenzhong exhaled a long sigh and said, "Now we have to decide on our future actions. My opinion is to drive the ship to the waters near Qingdao, and then take the opportunity to secretly leave the ship and sneak up on the shore. After all, this ship is the property of the country, and we have the responsibility to hand it back. But we cannot be a guinea pig. No one knows our current situation now, and finds an opportunity to sneak up on the shore before trying to get an identity. If it really doesn't work, get an identity certificate and go abroad."

"I agree." Zhou Tian looked at Zhao Zhenzhong and said.

"Of course I have no objection. My sister agrees, and I have nothing to say." Seeing Old Zhao, Zhou Hao looked at him and quickly confessed his love.

"Okay, let's sink the ship first and then go to the restaurant to cook something, and then take a break before talking about other things." Zhao Zhenzhong suggested.

"Old Zhao, when you say that, my stomach is also urinating. I haven't eaten for almost two days and I'm so hungry. Sister, you have to show your skills and let Lao Zhao have a good taste." Zhou Hao hurriedly raised his hand to agree.
