After a series of comparisons, Fangyuanyuan finally brought Qin Hao to the laboratory.

"Everyone, please stop what you are doing and come over here. I will introduce the new leader to you."

After arriving at the laboratory, Fangyuan Yuan gathered all his colleagues, but Qin Hao was confused as to when he became the leader here.

"You don't have to doubt it. The old man said that you will be responsible for the command of the mission laboratory this time. Didn't you see that the logo on your ID badge is Qinglong?"

Seeing Qin Hao's confusion, Fang Yuanyuan explained briefly, but she didn't make it clear.

After listening to her words, Qin Hao quickly took out his ID card and checked it. Sure enough, there was a blue dragon pattern in the upper left corner. He also looked at the red bird pattern in the upper left corner of the ID card on Fangyuan Yuanyuan's chest. He probably guessed the reason and asked.

Said: "So you are in charge of this place?"

"Didn't I already tell you when we met that I am the former person in charge?" Fangyuanyuan replied.

"Then it's your responsibility, I'm just here to help." Qin Hao said with a smile. He had no interest in the position of the person in charge.

"What's the matter, you want to evade responsibility? The old man actually trusts you, just go ahead and don't worry, I will fully cooperate with you." Fangyuanyuan said.

Qin Hao wanted to say something, but was stopped by Fang Yuanyuan because his colleagues in the laboratory had already gathered around him.

"Let me introduce to you, this is Qin Hao, the laboratory leader of our operation. From now on, you can all follow his command."

Fangyuan Yuan said and moved Qin Hao to the middle of the crowd.

Amid the sparse applause from all around, Qin Hao felt like he was being pushed aside. After all, he had just arrived here and didn't even understand the specific work content, so why did he become the person in charge?

"Okay, let's all disperse."

Just when Qin Hao was about to say something bravely, Fangyuan Yuan dispersed the crowd with a wave of his hand, which made Qin Hao feel like he was being teased.

"Let's go, I'll take you to a place to rest. We can reach the goal of salvage tomorrow morning."

Fangyuanyuan didn't care about his thoughts at all, and walked out of the laboratory after speaking.

"You should have a good rest first. If you need anything, you can inform the logistics through the equipment at the bedside. They will try their best to meet your request. Just get up and go to the laboratory tomorrow."

After bringing Qin Hao to the room, Fangyuanyuan explained and left.

Qin Hao, who was left alone in the room, just wanted to vent his unhappiness, but was shocked again by the preparations in the room. The clothes and toiletries prepared for him in the room were actually the ones he liked to use in daily life, not only the brands were the same,

Even the color and size are exactly the same.

What Fangyuan Yuan once said suddenly flashed through his mind: "Being favored by the old man may not be a good thing."

Of course, since Mr. Wei can ask him to help, there will definitely be no harm to him, but this feeling of being completely understood by others still makes Qin Hao difficult to adapt to.

...

When Qin Hao woke up the next day, breakfast had been delivered to his dining table at some point, and he was not surprised. After all, this was too childish for Butian.

When Qin Hao rushed to the laboratory, Fangyuanyuan and the others were already busy with their work.

When he arrived, Fang Yuanyuan stopped what she was doing and walked over.

"The salvage operation has begun. The members of the operation team will soon arrive at the seabed where the submarine is located. Our main task is to put forward reasonable opinions based on the situation on site to avoid unnecessary damage."

Fangyuanyuan handed the revised version of the action plan to Qin Hao and briefly explained the general situation. However, her attitude today was completely different from yesterday, more like a qualified assistant.

"Um."

Qin Hao took over the new action plan and started reading it. Except for some adjustments due to environmental factors, it was not much different from what he saw last night. When he finished reading, there was also a message on the big screen in the laboratory.

Here comes the scene at the bottom of the sea.

The Gluttonous Operation Team has arrived at the coordinates of the submarine. Five years have passed since the submarine was buried deep in the dust. All that can be seen now is the desolation of the seabed.

Several excavation robots rushed out from the belly of the Taotie and began a busy excavation work on the seabed below.

About thirty minutes later, in a deep pit of about five meters, a submarine that had been eroded by seawater and was stained with rust gradually appeared in everyone's sight.

A batch of smaller excavation robots were thrown into the deep pit. This was the first time Qin Hao had seen these devices in front of him in the real world. He had only seen such scenes in science fiction movies before. But he did not

It’s not surprising, just like some of the cutting-edge results he studied have not yet been released to the world.

After more than fifty minutes of hard work, all the excavating robots returned to the interior of the Taotie. The entire submarine was completely exposed in the huge pit, alone, like a worn-out toy abandoned in the corner.

angry.

While everyone was feeling sad for this lonely moment, a group of detection and sensing robots were already attached to the submarine and began to work.

Groups of data were continuously transmitted back to the Taotie, and eventually they were aggregated into a projection of the submarine's entire system, and projected to every corner of the Taotie.

Qin Hao and Fangyuan Yuan immediately saw the projected scene in the cockpit. Dried corpses were scattered everywhere in the cockpit. Some were lying alone, and some were in twos.

Hug each other, hold each other tightly.

The corresponding information has been displayed above the corpse according to their identity tags. Seeing this miserable scene, Qin Hao can still remain calm, but Fangyuan Yuan and the others find it difficult to control their emotions. The familiar information is like spreading

The handfuls of coarse salt on the wound made the chest feel so uncomfortable as if a big stone was being pressed against it.

Warm scenes of working together kept reappearing in their minds. Finally, the last dam in their eyes could no longer withstand the surge from the bottom of their hearts. The endless sadness and regret collapsed in an instant, leaving traces on their faces.

There were traces of scalding heat.

The sadness did not hinder the progress of the work, and soon they had a clear understanding of the entire submarine's internal situation, including the legendary giant fungus that had been located in the laboratory.

"The excavation and data collection work has been completed, requesting instructions for the next step."

When the data collection robot was recovered from the Taotie, Lei Pen, the leader of the Taotie action team, said.

"Team leader, what is your suggestion?"

Fang Yuanyuan, whose eyes were still somewhat bloodshot, came to Qin Hao's side and asked slowly.

Qin Hao was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that his cheap team leader would be put to use so quickly.

After that, he fell into deep thought.

When he was reading the information last night, he already knew that the first plan for this operation was to directly salvage and then conduct research and investigation. However, because of the possible existence of unknown viruses, he had to conduct research and investigation on the seabed first, and then salvage after eliminating the danger.

In fact, the first plan is relatively safe. After all, after five long years, no matter how strong the virus is, it should be impossible to survive in a submarine, and there is still a certain danger in conducting research and investigation on the seabed several thousand meters away.

But when he actually witnessed the tragic scene inside the submarine, Qin Hao had a vague premonition. Although this feeling rarely appeared in him, it would attract his special attention every time, because it once saved the life of the submarine.

Live his life.

"My suggestion is to enter the submarine first, conduct a simple investigation of the internal situation, and wait until the living analysis report of the air in the cabin is completed before proceeding with salvage."

After finishing his thinking, Qin Hao expressed his suggestion.

"It's true that he is the one the old man likes. He is indeed as conservative as him."

Fangyuan Yuan seemed to say something appreciative, and then turned around and called the control center: "The laboratory's opinion is to conduct research and analysis on the seabed, and then salvage after confirming that the living body report of the air in the cabin is safe."

Qin Hao's suggestion was quickly implemented. Cai Fei and Wu Quan drove the transfer cabin away from the Taotie and arrived at the docking location of the accident submarine.

Because the docking position of the accident submarine also suffered a certain amount of collision, the process was not very smooth. After more than two hours of repair work, Cai Fei and Wu Quan entered the accident submarine.

The two men in protective suits moved a little awkwardly, like two fat men weighing more than 300 pounds moving slowly inside the accident submarine.

Since the energy of the accident submarine had been exhausted, Cai Fei and Wu Quan could only rely on the auxiliary light source above their heads, making their movements slower. After more than two hours of hard work, they finally completed the air collection in all cabins and

The experimental cabin of the accident submarine completed the rendezvous.

The experimental cabin is their final destination for this mission. According to the positioning information of the holographic projection, the legendary giant fungus is here.

Cai Fei and Wu Quan looked at each other and walked towards the innermost room of the experimental cabin, which was the only BSL-3 laboratory in the experimental cabin. Fortunately, the door of the laboratory was open, otherwise there would be no energy.

Well, if they want to break through, they will still have to put in a lot of effort.

After entering the laboratory, they were also a little shocked by the giant fungus in a giant container. If this could be counted as a mushroom, it must be the largest one they had ever seen, but it was upside down.

Because there were cracks in the vessel, the culture fluid inside had been completely lost, so the giant fungus had withered and shriveled, but even so, it was as big as a seven or eight-year-old child.

While Cai Fei was recording the video data, Wu Quan checked other places in the laboratory and found nothing unusual. However, when he came back to help Cai Fei pack up the equipment and prepare to return, the withered giant behind them

The fungus suddenly shone with a glimmer of light.

When Cai Fei and Wu Quan felt something flashed and turned back to check, they had already returned to darkness and stood there quietly without any abnormalities.
