The weather was fine, the sea was clear blue, and the sky was blue. Not far away, the pulsing blue-purple electric light became the most beautiful color between the sea and the sky.
After the smoke, this rare peace was even more precious.
Huo Shaoheng lowered his head and kissed Gu Nianzhi again before continuing to swim to the research ship with her in his arms.
Gu Nianzhi remembered the electric shock Huo Shaoheng had received in the sea. She touched his arm and whispered, "… Do you hurt?"
The sound was very small, so light that it was about to be carried away by the wind in the vast sea and sky, but it was no less than a heavy hammer that made Huo Shaoheng's eyes sore.
He couldn't say a word. He just hugged Gu Nianzhi tighter and swam faster.
Gu Nianzhi didn't ask anymore. She thought that a strong man like Huo Shaoheng would probably not admit his pain in front of others.
No matter how painful it was, they would only hide it in their hearts.
…
Huo Shaoheng swam in the sea with Gu Nianzhi in his arms for a while. Not long after, they met the speedboat from the research ship.
"Major General Huo! We finally found you! " The person on the speedboat was a member of the Special Operations Forces who had come with Huo Shaoheng. He looked like he was really about to cry.
Huo Shaoheng grabbed the side of the boat and pushed Gu Nianzhi up first. He asked calmly, "Where are the others? Did they all go back? "
"They all went back! Only you and Miss Gu are left! We saw that there was suddenly a fire over there. The blue-purple electric light was so scary! "
They were afraid that Major General Huo and Miss Gu would be buried in the buoy circle. When they saw the blue-purple electric light, several members of the Special Operations Forces jumped off the research ship and wanted to go back to the buoy circle to save Huo Shaoheng and Gu Nianzhi …
The man wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with the back of his hand and reached out to drag Huo Shaoheng up. He then contacted the research ship and said that Major General Huo and Miss Gu had been found.
Through the communicator, they could also hear the cheers from the research ship.
Huo Shaoheng calmly picked up the communicator and said to Colonel Liu on the research ship, "Thank you for your hard work. We will return immediately."
…
The speedboat quickly took them back to the research ship.
Song Jinning hurried over to them. She held Huo Shaoheng with one hand and Gu Nianzhi with the other. She looked them over and asked worriedly, "Are you hurt?"
The people who had returned earlier all had varying degrees of injuries. Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng were the last to return, so Song Jinning was worried that their injuries were even more serious …
Gu Nianzhi quickly said, "I'm not injured, not at all. Major General Huo protected me very well. However, Major General Huo was electrocuted over there, so we have to send him back to the base hospital for a thorough examination. "
"Is it inside the buoy circle?" Song Jinning's heart suddenly sank. That was where the high-voltage electric field was concentrated!
Gu Nianzhi nodded. She knew what Song Jinning was worried about and quickly explained, "But we were lucky and managed to escape before the violet lightning appeared, so the shock Major General Huo received shouldn't be too serious."
Huo Shaoheng said directly, "I'm fine. That little electric shock is nothing."
Song Jinning breathed a sigh of relief and patted Huo Shaoheng's shoulder. "It's good that you're fine, but don't let your guard down. We'll send you back to the base with a speedboat later. "
Huo Shaoheng nodded. "I'll go right away." He glanced at Gu Nianzhi and didn't say anything else. He went back to the cabin to change clothes.
Because they all had varying degrees of injuries, they wouldn't stay on the scientific research ship. They would be sent back to the Special Operations Forces' C City base on a speedboat with Hong Kangquan.
Song Jinning held Gu Nianzhi's hand and asked worriedly, "… Are you really okay? Why don't you go back with them for a checkup? "
Gu Nianzhi thought about it. "Then will you go back with us?"
Song Jinning shook her head. "I won't go for the time being." She looked at the violet lightning between the sea and the sky, frowned, and said, "I haven't figured out what's going on with that violet lightning … Nature is really amazing. We researchers may not be able to understand one ten-thousandth of the magic of nature even if we work hard for a lifetime."
Gu Nianzhi, "…"
She really didn't believe that Song Jinning didn't know what was going on!
However, Song Jinning looked puzzled, so Gu Nianzhi couldn't say anything more. She went back to the cabin to change clothes.
Song Jinning continued to stay with the scientific research ship to observe the violet lightning. At the same time, she sent a message back to the imperial capital's military headquarters, saying that a magical blue hole had suddenly appeared between the waters of C City and the Sea of Japan. It was really puzzling that it carried its own lightning …
…
Gu Nianzhi followed Huo Shaoheng back to the Special Operations Forces base in C City.
This was where she had lived for six years. Returning here was like a fish in water, very comfortable.
She slept in the bedroom she had lived in from the age of 12 to 18. It was a full 24 hours of sleep. When she woke up, she felt a hundred times more energetic, and her physical strength had finally been fully restored.
Huo Shaoheng also slept for nearly 20 hours.
The trip to and from the buoy circle had consumed a lot of their energy.
When Gu Nianzhi sat in the dining room, it was spring outside, and the sun was shining brightly.
It was lunchtime, and she slowly drank a bowl of sea cucumber and red dates millet porridge.
Huo Shaoheng walked in and turned on the wall-mounted TV in the dining room. He sat across from her and nodded at her. "Did you sleep well? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere? "
Gu Nianzhi shook her head. "I'm just tired. I'm fine now that I've had enough sleep." She asked Huo Shaoheng, "What do you want to eat? The kitchen is making my favorite food. "
Huo Shaoheng took the bowl and chopsticks in front of her. "I'll eat whatever you eat."
Gu Nianzhi pursed her lips and smiled slightly. She lowered her head to take a sip of the porridge and stroked her hair that hung down to her ear with one hand.
Her freshly washed hair was still a little wet. Gu Nianzhi glanced at the TV as she ate the porridge.
The noon news was playing on the TV.
The serious-looking female anchor suddenly said, "Now we have an important piece of news that has just been received."
"The Japanese government has protested to the Huaxia government, claiming that the recent appearance of the blue hole with lightning between the waters of C City and the Sea of Japan was the work of the Huaxia Empire. The purpose is to frame the 200 elite frogmen of the Japanese Marine Corps trapped in the blue hole."
Gu Nianzhi glanced at Huo Shaoheng. "… What's going on?"
Huo Shaoheng ate his lunch and said after a while, "General Ji called me to ask what's going on."
Gu Nianzhi's heart tightened. "What did you say?"
Huo Shaoheng didn't look at her and said calmly, "Of course I told the truth."
Gu Nianzhi felt even more bitter. She silently put down the soup and stood up to leave.
When she walked past Huo Shaoheng, he grabbed her wrist. "Where are you going?"
"… Pack your things and turn yourself in," Gu Nianzhi said angrily. "I've caused a diplomatic dispute …"
"Turn myself in for what?" Huo Shaoheng pulled her over and sat her on his lap. "This is obviously the work of nature. What does it have to do with you?"
Gu Nianzhi felt like she was alive again. She asked in surprise, "Did you really tell General Ji that?!"
"Yes. I said it very clearly. I don't know what happened. I almost died in there. If I hadn't run fast enough, would General Ji have also gone to Japan to protest? " Huo Shaoheng took Gu Nianzhi's bowl of porridge and scooped a spoonful of porridge to her mouth. "… Open your mouth."
Gu Nianzhi couldn't help opening her mouth, and he fed her a mouthful. "What did General Ji say?"
"General Ji understood and didn't ask any more questions." Huo Shaoheng wiped her mouth with a tissue.
Gu Nianzhi came to her senses. "Don't treat me like a child!"
She sat next to Huo Shaoheng, took the porridge bowl, and continued eating.
At that moment, the spokesperson for the Huaxia Empire's Ministry of Foreign Affairs appeared on the television, answering questions from Japanese reporters.
She pointed to the bluish-purple electric buoy circle that appeared on the live screen and said, "Sir, the Japanese government really thinks too highly of us. This is clearly the work of nature. It's a natural phenomenon. Our research ship has already sailed to the scene for scientific research. If you insist that it's man-made, it's very difficult for us. This blame is too heavy for us to bear. "
Of course, the Japanese reporter was dissatisfied and asked repeatedly, "How can you say that? We still have more than 200 frogman soldiers trapped there! "
The spokesperson for the Huaxia Empire's Ministry of Foreign Affairs was even more amused. She spread her hands and said, "India once thought that the Venus Star that appeared over their country was a drone from the Huaxia Empire. They thought that we were monitoring them and repeatedly protested to our Ministry of Defense.
"We explained many times, but they didn't listen. In the end, we had to say that if you think it's a drone, you can shoot it down. If you can shoot it down, then we lose. In the end, India spent a lot of effort to figure out that it was a star in the sky. The star that we Huaxia people call 'Venus' was not a drone from the Huaxia Empire … "
"The same principle is applied to Japan. Don't blame natural phenomena on us. You have to be responsible for your own country's soldiers. Think about why they appeared there. As far as I know, it's not Japan's territorial waters." The spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs poked at the Japanese reporter.
