Chapter 915 Hallucination

The two women waited for about half an hour, and then the door to the base opened again.

Kaisouchang walked out of it, and Nili immediately greeted him, her eyes full of expectation, but then Kaisouchang's words poured cold water on her.

"I reported the story you told me to my superiors truthfully, but it is so absurd that it is difficult for people to believe it."

"What about the photos? Did you give them the photos?"

"Of course," Kaisohao nodded, "Those photos are indeed surprising, but they can only prove that there is a real underwater ruins near Yonaguni Island, and this is something that the archaeological community should worry about, and besides, we don't know Are these photos fake?"

Nelly's heart sank when she heard this.

But then she heard Haicao Chang say, "Even so, we have just inquired about the hotel, airport, dive shop, and the ship that will take you back, and we learned that you do have a companion who did not come back after diving with you. , adhering to the spirit of humanitarianism, the Self-Defense Forces agree to allocate some manpower to help you search the nearby sea areas."

"How many people are there?" Nelly regained hope.

"Two patrol boats, including me, there are a total of 25 Navy Self-Defense Force members."

"There are too few people." Nelly shook her head, "And we are no match for those monsters in the water."

"Unfortunately, this is the most we can send out." Hai Cao said, after a pause, he continued, "We will bring some weapons. This is the maximum I can provide you within the scope of my duties. help."

Nellie knew this was the best deal they could get.

Perhaps only after seeing the underwater palace with their own eyes can these Self-Defense Force soldiers really change their views.

Just when Nili was about to express her gratitude to Captain Hai Cao, she suddenly heard Han Lu ask in English, "Where is the camera?"

"It's in the hands of the people at the back. I will return the camera to you after we get on the boat." Before Neli could translate, Captain Haicao also answered in English. Then he looked at Han Lu, "Do you have any other questions? "

Although Han Lu still felt that something was wrong, she could only shake her head. Perhaps as Nelly said, these soldiers would believe what they said before when they really saw the undersea tunnel and what was underneath.

"Rescuing people is like putting out fire, so let's set off now." Hai Cao said.

…………

When she came to the Navy's dedicated pier and saw the vast expanse of sea water, Nelly couldn't help but feel a sense of resistance in her heart. After this dive, it was difficult for her to be the same as before. I loved this blue sky so much that I had to shake my head hard to drive away the fear.

The two patrol boats of the Self-Defense Force had already been prepared and were filled with soldiers. In addition to regular naval soldiers, there were also some frogmen with diving equipment.

Nelly also gained a little sense of security from those resolute faces.

Captain Hai Cao took the two women onto one of the patrol boats and arranged them in the cockpit. This was to make it easier for them to guide them. As soon as they sat down, Han Lu said again, "The camera can be returned to us." Yet?"

"Of course." Hai Cao said, and then made a gesture and asked a soldier to take Nili's underwater camera and return it to the two women. However, Han Lu's expression changed soon after taking the camera.

"Where's the SD card inside?"

"We have detained the SD card. As I said before, we need to verify the authenticity of those photos." Hai Cao said, "We will naturally return the SD card to you after the verification is completed. If you need it, I can give it to you first. You have a blank card.”

"But why don't you make a copy of the photo and return the SD card to us directly?" Han Lu asked.

Hearing this, Chief Haicao glanced deeply at Han Lu, but did not reply.

In the end, it was Nelly who came out to smooth things over, "It's okay. Anyway, the Self-Defense Forces have already sent people. I will return the SD card later. Everyone has the same purpose, which is to resolve this crisis as soon as possible."

Hearing this, Han Lu glanced at the soldiers armed to the teeth outside the cockpit and said nothing more.

The speedboat soon arrived at the place where Nili and the others had dived. Later, Nili and Han Lu also found the reef where they escaped based on their memories.

But this time there was no need to send frogmen to dive, and it could be seen that there was no underwater tunnel below.

In fact, it is basically a reef beach. In addition to the rocks above the water, there are also rocks under the water. Not to mention the passage that can accommodate sperm whales, even larger dolphins will probably get stuck in it.

Nelly's eyes widened, "This...how is this possible?! We obviously escaped from here in the afternoon!"

"Are you sure you remember correctly?" Chief Hai Cao asked on the side.

"Yes, I remember that rock. It looked like...a saddle, and the rock next to it looked like an onion." Nelly said.

"This is here," Han Lu also said in English, "I will never forget this place."

"But where is the underwater palace you mentioned?" Hai Cao Zhang frowned.

"It should be here, passing through the huge undersea tunnel, and below is the mysterious and terrifying undersea palace." When Nelly said this, she seemed to recall what happened below, and couldn't help but laugh. Shivered.

Chief Kaisou shook his head, "I honestly didn't believe it when you first told me that story. Let's not mention the magical and weird parts of it. Just talk about the undersea tunnels and palaces. You are the dive guide here, so you should know very well. This area has always been a very popular diving spot and receives many divers during the peak season every year. If there were really underwater tunnels and palaces down here, do you think no one would have discovered them until today?"

"This..." Nili was stunned. She had to admit that what Kaisao said was very reasonable. However, she did escape from here just a few hours ago.

But now it seems that all this is like an illusion of hers.

Could it be that this is all the influence of the red sea water? But how does this solve the problem that she and Han Lu happened to have the exact same hallucination. And where did Zhang Heng go after that? Was he just an illusion?

Nelly looked around blankly. She could no longer tell what was reality and what was her delusion.

Captain Kaiso was quite patient, and continued in English, "The reason why I brought people here even though I knew you were lying is because I found that your companions are indeed missing, but if you still keep telling me about monsters, , what kind of underwater palace, believe me, this will not help in finding your companions."

He looked into Nelly's eyes and said, "I want to help you, but first you have to tell me what happened underwater."

Nelly opened her mouth, but no words came out.
