Twenty thousand leagues under the sea doujinshi

[-]. Residents of Lincoln Island

This dinner event is a good interaction between naturalists and business celebrities.Academics and funding are complementary. For example, funding is the premise of academic research, and academic research is the basis for funding.So the scholars and businessmen greeted each other and had a happy discussion.

I avoided the crowd and went to the balcony to breathe.To be honest, for someone like me who can only do research and write papers, such social activities are simply difficult to cope with.

While I was enjoying the cool night breeze, someone came to the balcony, and he let out a long breath, as if he couldn't breathe because of the atmosphere in the room.

I turned around, and the other party was also surprised that there was someone on the balcony.This is a young man with a tall figure and a handsome face, and his strong muscles can't be concealed even in a straight suit.We nodded and announced our names to each other.

The man's name was Herbert, and he was a real estate agent.But I think he may have inherited his father's estate, after all he is so young.

"Mr. Aronnax!" Herbert held out his hand to me. "Nice to meet you! I have read your "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea!"

I guess his next words were, amazing!Is that true!That's what everyone who reads the book says when they see me.

But Herbert said: "Captain Nemo is really a mysterious and legendary figure!"

This surprised me a bit.

"It seems that you are looking forward to the life of Captain Nemo." I replied with a smile.

"I also lived an unfettered life away from the world," the young man said. "Although I was very happy, I still yearn to contact human society, and Captain Nemo is the same."

I smiled and didn't answer.Does Captain Nemo yearn for human society?No, he refuses to be connected with the land. He swims in the sea and explores the Antarctic. The places that humans have not set foot in are his world.He has his own circle, his own sources, but he will not approach humans.

Herbert watched my expression, and he seemed to feel that my opinion was different from his.

He said: "Professor, may I have the honor to invite you to visit Lincoln Island? A pair of bald eagles made their home in the woods two weeks ago. They are really beautiful. There are many rare birds and animals. Believe you Must be very interesting."

I asked, "Lincoln...Island?"

Herbert explained: "Forgive me, my land is in Iowa, and it was signed in memory of an island in the Pacific Ocean."

"Where is that island?"

"At 150 degrees 30 minutes west longitude and 34 degrees 57 minutes south latitude."

How strange, I thought, it was a desert island that was not on any route, what was there to commemorate on a desert island?

Herbert saw my doubts, he smiled slightly, and said: "Mr. Professor, for some reason, I lived on that island for four years. I love her very much, but unfortunately she was destroyed by the crazy activity of the volcano. gone."

This aroused my curiosity. How could he live on an island 1500 nautical miles from the nearest land for four years?

This little businessman is honest enough, he told me these things when we first met.

At this time, someone greeted him to enter the house through the glass door. He gestured to the other party, then turned to look at me, and once again sincerely invited me to visit his real estate.

I'm interested and still considering whether to accept it.

Herbert said again: "Mr. Professor, after you escaped from the maelstrom, there has been no news of Captain Nemo, right?"

I said, "Yeah, don't know if he'll escape the Maelstrom, but the Nautilus is a top-notch ship, and maybe he can."

"He left the Maelstrom safely," said Herbert. "I have seen Captain Nemo, too. He has saved my life, twice."

I was shocked, and was about to ask, when the people in the room called Herbert again, so he bowed to me, "I am waiting for you at Lincoln Island anytime, good night."

Captain Nemo is indeed a miraculous figure. During the several months on his ship, I have personally seen several people who benefited from him, revolutionaries, poor people, does Captain Nemo yearn for human society?This question is really hard to generalize.To what class was that Mr. Herbert?He mentioned that he lived on a desert island for four years, was he a seaman of a shipwrecked ship?How did Captain Nemo save him?I can't wait to visit Lincoln Island.
