Beach, bonfire.

The nights in Yingdao are extremely long, and the night gets colder and colder. The tourists who stayed on the island were all excited at first, but when the moon rose to the mid-heaven, they couldn't bear it anymore, and they all took the tram to the construction area in the center of the island to shelter from the wind.

Chi Ji was leaning on a creaking recliner, and Bo Yan was watching someone roast sea salt duck eggs with great interest at the three o'clock position in front of him.The weak heat of street lamps and bonfires was pitifully diluted in the sea breeze. Chi Ji rubbed his icy fingertips. The hazy edge in the distance behind him was the continental shelf overlooking the towering peaks from the sea level near the sea.

The aroma of cooked food filled the air, Chi Ji squinted his eyes, got up and moved over.The circle around the campfire was densely packed, and he didn't squeeze in. He just squatted next to Bo Yan, resting his chin on his shoulder and looking inside.

Bo Yan felt the cold air on his body, and habitually shook his hand, holding his cold fingers in his palm and covering it gently.He stayed by the campfire for a long time, and his body temperature was also high. Chi Ji didn't feel cold at first, but he shivered unconsciously when he held it.

"Are you cold?" A big brother next to him saw that the tip of Chi Ji's nose was red from the cold, and eagerly wanted to give him a seat. Chi Ji thanked him with a smile and shook his head.

"I'd better...not get too close to the fire," he said, turning his face away and sneezing.

A thin coat that was warmed by the fire was pressed on his shoulders, and he didn't need to look up to know that Bo Yan must have done something to the clothes again.With his nose blocked, Chi Ji hugged his coat tightly because he didn't want to catch a cold, and Bo Yan Anning's voice was next to his ears: "Let's go back too."

Each of them took a hot egg that had just been pulled out of the salt grains, and walked towards the residence along the lighted path on the bank.The sea breeze quickly rolled the wet sand and brushed against the bare calves under the robe, the leaves retracted inward, and then protruded out after a while, patting away the sand stuck to Chi Ji's ankles a few times.

Bo Yan's calf was slightly cold, he looked down, Chi Ji's blade had finished patting his own sand, and did not forget to sweep his.Seeing him looking over, he also took advantage of the situation and rubbed his palms affectionately, itching slightly.

Until I walked around the stone forest and saw the lights in the gathering area, the soft touch still remained in my palm.

After walking for a long time, Chi Ji's body gradually warmed up. He picked up those big rocks with strange patterns along the way, and turned back happily and said, "They are exactly the same as those in the picture album."

Bo Yan looked at him, Chi Ji's turned profile was hazy under the moonlight, but his smiling eyes and nimble nose were always vivid.

Bo Yan's palms were slightly sweating, he took a step forward, stood on the same rock as Chi Ji, and stretched out his hand to each other almost unconsciously.

Chi Ji was slightly taken aback.

Bo Yan looked away, but silently shook his flat palm up and down, as if begging for a gift.

Chi Ji thought of something, lowered his eyes, and on the rocks where the waves beat, cool water flowed over his bare insteps from time to time.He thought about it a few times, and couldn't help feeling a little depressed, but he didn't see the restless red slowly staining the thin neck.

- You are not good, just like this, please speak up if you have something to say?If you don't talk about it, people don't know what you want to do...

The assistant couldn't stand it anymore.

Bo Yan thought it made sense, and just as he was about to grit his teeth and speak his mind, something suddenly fell on Kong Luoluo's palm.

"Indeed, it's easy to misunderstand wearing this." Chi Ji sighed, "Why didn't I think of it earlier? Here, I'll return it to you, and you can take it off quickly."

Bo Yan was stunned for a moment, and immediately firmly clenched his hands behind his back: "I don't."

Looking at Chi Ji's blinking eyes full of confusion, Bo Yan spread his hands again, involuntarily stuffing the ring back into Chi Ji's palm.

"I didn't mean that." Bo Yan was slightly annoyed, "The ring can help me find you, put it away." He paused, thinking of Chi Ji's action of taking off the ring without hesitation just now, with a touch of bitterness, "...if you are afraid If you are misunderstood, take it with you and don’t forget it.”

Chi Ji let out an "ah", but with a somewhat relaxed expression, he slowly lowered his head and put the ring back on his finger, with a subtle pleasure in his voice that he didn't even notice: "...If this is the case, then I still Wear it so you don't lose it."

Bo Yan breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to say something more, when suddenly a chill hit his face.

The sea breeze sprayed with fine water droplets, and the two of them subconsciously looked sideways, and their minds woke up together.

——The breathing blue whale surfaced and sprayed a long column of water under the night sky.

In the dark night, one after another blue whale collectively jumps over the sea level, the picture is magnificent, it is exactly the group of whales that was written in the travel book but regretted that "the last time this happened was 50 years ago".Yingdao is close to the continental shelf, and the depth of the seabed is no longer enough to attract whales.

Under the dark blue dome, the whales coming from a distance are like small islands suddenly emerging, and the fine white water droplets flutter like rain and mist. The spotlights on the island pass through and refract, and a narrow rainbow appears in the diffuse mist.

Chi Ji was so shocked that he couldn't speak, he had never seen such a scene - it would be great if he could take a picture... It's a pity that he didn't bring a camera.

"Wow~ I'm so lucky!" A tourist who came out for a stroll in the middle of the night happened to be here, and was surprised to see the rare sight in 50 years. He hurriedly raised the camera hanging on his chest and snapped a picture. a few.The boyfriend next to her brought a more professional equipment, excitedly immediately set up a simple stand to shoot.

Chi Ji and Bo Yan stood side by side on the reef, staring in a daze, the salty sea breeze passed around them, until the whales gradually disappeared into the sea, the dark sea returned to tranquility, only the stars were silent.

"Let's go back." Chi Ji was still thinking about what he saw just now, and Bo Yan seemed to be as shocked by the beautiful scenery as he was, and kept staring closely before turning his gaze away.

"Go back." Bo Yan also whispered.

Their travel time is in a hurry, they only have one day to stay in Yingdao, and they will leave tomorrow morning.

The couple who accidentally photographed the whales returned to their hotel and couldn't wait to start processing the photos.Both of them are well-known photographers. They have their own popular homepages, and the usual likes can reach 50 to [-]. This time, they caught up with the excellent material that has not been seen in [-] years, and the popularity quickly rose to the top ten. , aroused great controversy.

Almost at the same time, a private jet landed at the resort airport with only one passenger on board.He was wearing a small cotton cap, only 12 years old, and he was a boy with a thick head and a very innocent eyes.

—— Fengping.

Borrowing someone else's airport, you have to go through their security checks. When Fengping passed by, the machine that had been calm and beeped abruptly and sharply, attracting sporadic late-night passengers to look sideways.

But from a distance, they could only see the human wall densely blocked by many tall and burly bodyguards.

The airport in this wilderness is no better than a big city, they are all out for fun, no one wants to meddle in their own business and risk their lives, so they shrank their heads and hurried away as if they hadn't seen it.And the young woman on duty looked at the security screen, the shape and color of all kinds of dangerous goods all over the child's body, her face was terribly pale, she was trembling and wanted to step on the alarm, but she didn't expect her colleague who suddenly approached to twist her neck .

"If you have any trouble, we will solve it for you." The man in the airport overalls put his palm on his left chest with a local accent, and made a gesture of submission to the little boy of the Feng family who looked harmless to humans and animals.

Fengping lowered his head and turned the knife on his fingertips. "Oh?" He spoke in a childish voice that hadn't changed, very clear, "Tell Uncle Minx for me, give him three hours, and find someone."

·

Dani Minks is permanently stationed in this border area, enjoying his life as a big landlord, never thinking that there will be a time in his life when he will receive orders directly from his master.It didn't seem difficult to find a person for three hours, but when he arranged hundreds of subordinates to work overtime and watched all the surveillance videos, cold sweat broke out from behind.

None of the images contained the man he was looking for—and if he couldn't find it, he would pay the price of losing a hand.Minks woke up like a dream, and quickly mobilized all the power he could use. Unexpectedly, it was two Internet celebrities who saved him in the end.

"Listen—I heard that there is a reward of 100 million—" The Internet celebrity was invited here by his subordinates who wore suits and looked like ordinary office workers, but they didn't expect that in the closed room without windows like a warehouse, there were all men in black with guns and live ammunition. I was so frightened that I couldn't speak at all.

The couple photographer posted the photo online, and a subordinate in charge of network monitoring noticed two silhouettes in the corner of the photo.Adhering to the principle that a dead horse has the right to be a living horse doctor, he contacted the other party without any hope. Unexpectedly, after sending the picture, the other party said that he had indeed seen the two people, and provided a clearer photo.

Minks smiled kindly, and winked at his subordinates. A black suitcase was opened, and the brilliant gold inside immediately dazzled the internet celebrity's eyes.

The reward of 100 million is not out of the ordinary. They thought it was just ordinary seeking revenge, and for a while they became greedy and betrayed a stranger.When the victim saw this battle, he naturally became scared, but the gold worth far more than 100 million made his greed skyrocket.

Anyway... if it falls into the hands of these people, they will be forced to speak if they don't say anything, so it's better to take the money and leave.As for the two strangers, they can only be considered unlucky...

Five minutes later, Minks, who found out which hotel the two were staying in, sent the witness testimony and photo evidence to it. The couple held the gold and asked hopefully, "Can we leave, please?"

"Of course." Mincks said reasonably, "When you find them, you can leave."

Minks asked if he wanted to bring the two of them back to the higher authorities for disposal, but the next order caught him by surprise.

The author has something to say: It was a sleepless night, everything was calm at first, but after taking a bath, the red mole on Chi Ji's wrist suddenly became hot and painful.

The sudden pain caused a throbbing pain in his temples. Chi Ji immersed his wrist in cold water and gritted his teeth for a while.

The time was coming... sooner than he thought.This trip may not be complete after all.

Chi Ji opened his pocket watch almost calmly and took a look. Unsurprisingly, the only pointer was trembling repeatedly at a low speed, swinging left and right at the position before 12 o'clock.This is the end of danger, the final reminder—he should go to the South Pole now, although everything has been arranged, and before entering the cabin, he still needs to do a comprehensive inspection.

but……

Tomorrow, at least until tomorrow morning to say goodbye.

Chi Ji pushed open the bathroom door, walked silently to the living room of the suite, opened the freezer, took a frozen stone and stuck it on the burning red mole, and made a soft "hiss".

"Blooming in a dry world is very painful, and no tribe can bear that kind of pain."

"What about the third grandpa?"

The third grandfather wrinkled his face, took a breath and said bitterly: "I am most afraid of pain."

So in the end he still didn't hold on.

Chi Ji sighed softly, pressed his wrist and went back to the living room. Bo Yan was standing in front of the water tank in the middle, looking straight at the goldfish that were no longer than the length of a little finger.

Only the vast sea can luxuriously use goldfish as decorations.

"They all sank to the bottom of the water." Bo Yan said thoughtfully.

Chi Ji came over and touched the underwater rock with his finger, the fish twisted listlessly, and continued to rest in place.

"They have always been like this." Chi Ji shrugged. "I heard that only freshwater fish can be kept in tanks. Even at sea, it is impossible to change freshwater for them frequently."

Bo Yan nodded, looked through the transparent fish tank, and fell on the opposite young man who also lowered his head and seemed to be concentrating on how to make the fish move. Through the light green water waves, his beautiful face also looked like It is floating in the water.

"What are you thinking?" he couldn't help asking.

Chi Ji was stunned for a moment, raised his head and looked across the fish tank, his eyes reflected a little bit of water, and his doubts became a little fragile.

He paused for a moment, then smiled softly: "I didn't think about anything - go to bed early."

Said to go to bed early, but the tingling pain from the wrist from time to time made it difficult to fall asleep, Chi Ji turned over, and Bo Yan was still sitting on the sofa beside him with his eyes closed. ——He hasn't gone to bed to sleep since many days ago, Chi Ji knows that Bo Yan is guarding him, but he is not really inorganic, he also needs to sleep.He is very tired. If this continues, how long can he last?

Bo Yan, Chi Ji mouthed into the darkness, soon, it will be over soon.

He closed his eyes, pressed the small piece of painful skin against the edge of the bed, and used the pain to suppress the pain, thinking silently in his heart whether Bo Yan would continue to cruise after he fell asleep. He hadn't seen it yet. The scenery, the eye circles are red from the pain, and the consciousness has been between lucidity and sluggishness.

Until at some point, he suddenly opened his eyes from a burst of heart palpitations, as if his eardrums had just been soaked in water, he couldn't hear clearly.He shook his head, noticing that it was still dark all around, and the clock beside the bed had just pointed to three o'clock.

Here the days are long and the nights are short, and it will be dawn in an hour.Chi Ji didn't want to try to lie down again, he stood up gently, and glanced in Bo Yan's direction, but the other party supported his head without responding, and finally fell asleep.

Chi Ji walked out of the bedroom very lightly, because he decided to leave early in the morning, and his luggage was not messed up, saving him the effort of tidying up.He took out his mobile phone, looked at the two-person air tickets booked from the border to Xiali Valley, looked at it, canceled his own, and then booked a flight ticket from Laicheng to Antarctica.

Then he opened the itinerary and booked all the air tickets and hotels that Bo Yan would need next... Bo Yan might not go there.But if he's going, at least doing it now will save him some trouble.Moreover, Chi Ji hopes that now, he can do these things well by himself.

After doing all this, Chi Ji glanced at the time, and it only took 10 minutes.In just 10 minutes, there was already a gleam of light in the sky. Chi Ji walked to the French window of the living room, looking at the distant sea, where the dawn would rise, and he wanted to watch the morning glow with Bao Yan.

He squinted his eyes and looked all the way to the end of the ground, where, although he couldn't see clearly with the naked eye, he could imagine that it was the waves of the morning light wrapping around the edge of the island and beating layer by layer.

"Snapped"

That was the sound of the phone falling to the ground. Chi Ji turned around and was about to pick up the phone, but felt the ground under his feet tremble slightly, which seemed to be an illusion for a short time.

While he was still doubting the illusion, the calm stagnant water in the fish tank in the middle of the living room suddenly shook.

Chi Ji stared at the fish tank closely, and a terrible thought suddenly rose from his heart.And as if to support his guess, the next second, a sharp siren rang out and spread throughout the island.

Bo Yan was too tired, he hadn't really rested for many days, he felt sleepy, and then he had to close his eyes.

He was awakened by Chi Ji.Chi Ji's face was very close to him, he seemed so anxious for the first time, his hair fell on his chest collar, and the siren outside the window was still ringing, so close that he still couldn't hear it His voice can only be seen repeating the mouth shape:

"The island is sinking."

"Let's get out of here."

In the violent sound waves, Chi Ji couldn't even hear his own voice clearly. He didn't care to tell Bo Yan what happened, so he pulled him up and opened the bedroom curtains.

The island is flat, with low-lying edges and a slight bulge in the center. The hotel complex is built on the small slope in the center, and the number of floors is not high.However, this is already the commanding height of the island. Looking around, the area of ​​the island has shrunk by one-eighth compared to last night. After being submerged, the lights flickered like candles in the middle of the night.

As the alarm continued, the surroundings of the hotel became a mess. Some of the crowd rushed out frantically, wanting to escape as soon as possible, while some instead climbed to the top floor, because that was the last place where the water would drown.

"What's going on!" "The chamber is broken, I don't know why..." "Where is the lifeboat?" "Mom..."

"Don't leave, put on your life jacket and wait for the lifeboat!" "There's a helicopter!" "There's more than one!"

When Chi Ji dragged Bo Yan to the top floor, there was already a great chaos there.Under the guidance of the firefighters, the crowd who had been calmed down a little bit and took refuge on the top floor, waiting for the lifeboat, became confused because of several helicopters taking off from the apron on the west side of the island.

"Don't go! It's private, they won't care about you..."

Despite being stopped, many drove desperately toward the tarmac.It's just that when they finally saw their destination, they saw the hatches of the last remaining helicopters closed, and the four-bladed propellers stirred up the airflow, obviously about to take off immediately.

People jumped out of the car frantically, some went straight up and grabbed the frame, and some who were a little more rational prayed to the noble gentry to save their children.However, no one listened to their request, and the helicopter climbed at an extremely fast speed, fearing that it would be too late to get rid of them.The person who grabbed the rack looked back in fear at the rapidly moving ground—suddenly turning into a dark and terrifying sea level.Falling at that distance, whether it is the ground or the sea, is also...

But the speed of the chamber draft is getting faster and faster.On the way back, the seawater had covered a quarter of the island, and the seawater was chasing after the car like a wild beast. The wheels were spinning rapidly, and the mother covered the child's eyes to prevent him from turning back.

In the center of the island occupied by the hotel group, people wearing orange life jackets gradually fell silent from their excitement and panic.The helicopter has gone away, and only half of the island is exposed above the sea level. The originally not-so-high hotel group has now turned into a towering mountain on the sea.The only good thing is that the damage to the chamber did not cause the island to overturn and tilt, otherwise they would not even have the chance to wait for rescue.

The car coming back from the tarmac was parked downstairs.The hotel door had already been closed, and the people who came back patted the door and begged the administrator to open the door—but the control personnel on the ground floor had already gone to the top floor to avoid danger.

"How long will it take for the rescue ship to arrive?" Every time I asked, I got "soon", but no one could give a definite time.

After receiving the latest news, the staff of Yingdao Tourism Development Company, who was in charge of contacting the rescue ship, felt desperate.

"The rescue ship deviated from its course due to the weather..." "How much time do we have?"

"At the rate it's going. Half an hour, maybe. But any time something could happen—"

outer.

"Boom-"

During the half hour when Yingdao was slowly sinking, everyone's hearts sank slowly and quietly as if being washed by sea water.But the last minute is like a movie with the fast-forward button pressed, there is no time to see the plot clearly.
