An hour later, the Infiniti finally arrived at Yokosuka Port.
Yokosuka Port was located on the eastern shore of Tokyo Bay. It was known as Japan's number one military port. The US Navy's Seventh Fleet was stationed here.
In addition to the military port, it was also one of Japan's core ports. A large number of materials and resources were transported to Tokyo from here.
However …
The most powerful foreign naval fleet in the world was actually stationed at the gate of a country's capital. This could not help but be said to be a type of sorrow, but also a manifestation of incompetence.
When they arrived at Yokosuka Port, Director Du Shuangyi had already sent the diplomatic staff's evacuation time and route to Ye Qing.
The evacuation time was 17 hours later. Ye Qing edited the message into English and forwarded it to General Maups.
"Well … we've arrived at Yokosuka." Ma Xuan stiffly stopped the car at the entrance of a famous hot spring hotel in Yokosuka.
Hot Sea Hot Spring Spa Hotel.
Yun Shi had booked this hotel for Ye Qing in advance. It was a family-style room with a cost of more than 20,000 RMB per day. When Chen Mo heard that Ye Qing was going to stay here, she also booked a five-star hotel room nearby.
When Ye Qing and Chen Mo got out of the car together, Ma Xuan, who had been the driver all the way, almost ground his teeth to pieces.
"Thanks, Ma Xuan. Go back quickly." Chen Mo waved at Ma Xuan through the car door.
"Thanks!" Ye Qing waved back.
"You're … welcome." Ma Xuan almost shouted these three words through his nostrils. After watching the two leave, Ma Xuan slumped into the seat as if he had been dehydrated.
"Why?" Ma Xuan muttered to himself. Why would a man who made him feel despair appear beside Chen Mo?
Ma Xuan tried hard to recall the man's appearance. He had seen Ye Qing's photo in the media. But when he saw Ye Qing with sunglasses and a new hairstyle, he couldn't associate him with the young CEO of Monster Industries. But the more he thought about it, the more Ma Xuan felt that this man was full of mystery and uniqueness.
It's over. It's all over.
Chen Mo actually invited this man to come to Japan with her. It seemed that she had completely fallen into this man's bewitching spell. Tonight, if nothing unexpected happened, would be the darkest moment of Ma Xuan's life. The girl he liked was going to have sex with another man …
The more he thought about it, the more gloomy Ma Xuan felt. Chen Mo was trying to cover it up by booking a hotel somewhere else. That man booked a family room that was more than enough for five people …
Ye Qing stepped into this famous hotel. It was said that every day, one of the three famous hot springs, Kusanagi, had to carry hot spring water to this famous hotel.
Walking through the lobby, Ye Qing felt as if he had walked into a quiet manor in a mountain village. Suddenly, there was no trace of modernity in front of him. There were only beautiful wooden houses and maple trees.
Originally, he wanted to look for the kimono-clad beauty who was walking towards him to register, but when he turned around, he discovered that Chen Mo was also following behind her.
"You … didn't you book a room at the hotel next door?"
"I'm here to take a look at the door." Chen Mo smiled and said, "Little brother, I was too embarrassed to ask in the car. Later, I have a lot of questions to ask you. "
Ye Qing smiled and didn't say anything. Under the guidance of the kimono-clad beauty, he recognized a single-family wooden house with three hot springs. Then, without giving Chen Mo any time to stay, he dragged her out.
"I have something to do later. You go back to the hotel and throw away your luggage first. I'll treat you to dinner tonight."
Chen Mo nodded and asked, "Really?" Ye Qing said, "Of course I'm serious. Don't you know where I live? If I don't treat you to dinner tonight, I have to come back to rest. You can come and find me then."
"Is this a hint?" Chen Mo blinked.
…
Finally getting rid of Chen Mo, Ye Qing called a taxi with the Master Metal Expert and asked the driver to drive to the first district of Yokosuka Port.
It was a military restricted zone set up by the UA. It was also the largest naval base of the UA in the Far East and the only naval base with the ability to repair aircraft carriers.
The sixty-five-year-old driver spoke Japanese very well. When he heard that Ye Qing was going to see an aircraft carrier, he immediately told Ye Qing about the history of the first district of Yokosuka Port. Before coming, Ye Qing had already done some research on this place. Originally, Ye Qing didn't have much interest. It was purely out of politeness.
He didn't expect this talkative old man to talk about things that couldn't be found in public information. For example, which warships were docked at the military port here and how often the aircraft carrier was open for tours. There was also the secret Pier 12, where nuclear submarines were docked.
Ye Qing wanted to ask him what it felt like to have a UA warship docked at his door, but it would be hurtful to ask.
As they chatted casually, unknowingly, the rental car drove to a coastal road full of low old buildings. Most of the buildings had barricades set up at the door, and there were soldiers in UA military uniforms standing guard. When Ye Qing raised his head and looked ahead, his field of vision was completely occupied by a huge steel ship.
The gray hull, the flat deck, and the huge anchor slightly mottled with rust.
The huge steel ship in front of him was the USS Bush, the second most advanced of the eleven nuclear-powered aircraft carriers that represented the UA maritime authority. Even from a distance, Ye Qing couldn't see the scenery above the deck from a distance. He could only feel its size and majesty.
Even though Monster Industries had the Colossus, which was no less than its size, and far taller than it. Ye Qing also had to admit that warships and civilian ships gave people two completely different feelings. The former represented conquest and force.
The taxi finally stopped at the door of a building that looked like a movie ticket hall. There was a small line at the door.
The aircraft carrier was officially open for tours tomorrow. There were no restrictions on identity and photo equipment could be brought, so Ye Qing lined up to buy tickets first.
When paying, Ye Qing had to complain about the expensive taxi here. It cost more than five hundred for a dozen kilometers of road, and that was the price converted to RMB.
While waiting in line, Ye Qing paid a little attention to the crowd around him.
Ye Qing found that the people in line were generally middle-aged, at least one-third of them. At first glance, he could tell that they were housewives, the kind that would take their children for a tour. There were very few young people like him. If the aircraft carrier was to be opened to people in Hua Xia for a tour, Ye Qing felt that young people would definitely be the main force.
Finally, it was Ye Qing's turn. The person in charge of selling tickets was a female soldier. She was big and burly. She didn't even look at the identification. She directly stamped the two tickets and stuffed them with two notes during the tour.
Ye Qing touched his nose. He had to take a taxi back again.
Back at the hotel, Ye Qing changed into a semi-casual nightgown that he had brought from China. He was indifferent to the steaming hot spring downstairs. Instead, he sat at the table and carefully read the notes for the tour.
In the laptop that was not connected to the Internet, a three-dimensional model of the USS Bush aircraft carrier that had been reworked by Dian Jing was enlarged inside the cabin.
Ye Qing looked at the tour manual and frowned.
The three-dimensional model on the computer accurately marked the location and connecting channels of several large cabins inside the aircraft carrier. This was all public information, including the location of the most important nuclear reactor.
But …
The manual listed that area as a prohibited area.
The three-dimensional camera was powerful, but it also had limitations. First of all, the shooting distance and the complexity of the product.
Ye Qing had done tests. If an object was more than 20 meters away, there would be a prompt that said that it could not be shot. For a single shot, it was no problem to shoot a commercial building with a simple structure. For shooting a complex industrial product, an F22 was already the limit.
Of course, Ye Qing could shoot it multiple times. There was enough time to copy the entire USS Bush into a three-dimensional blueprint.
And the complexity of the nuclear reactor would definitely not exceed that of the F22 Raptor.
The number of parts of the fighter was more than three million. The technical difficulties of the reactor were in the metal materials, nuclear fuel, and structural design ideas. There were not many parts of the fighter, so the three-dimensional camera could shoot them all at once.
The main problem was how to get within 20 meters of the reactor. The manual listed the entire engine compartment as a prohibited area. According to the location of the open area in the tour manual, it seemed that there was no chance to get within 20 meters of the core reactor.
By the way, the manual also wrote a warning that it was prohibited to bring sensitive electronic equipment on board, and it also listed some banned electronic products.
Although it did not include SLR cameras, Ye Qing believed that there should be a small inspection that was not too cumbersome before boarding the ship, such as letting tourists open their backpacks and take a look, using sensor equipment to scan and other measures.
Ye Qing pondered for a long time and felt that the problem he imagined before departure was a little simple.
However, before arriving at the aircraft carrier, Ye Qing couldn't get too much detailed information and could only improvise according to the situation.
Thinking of this, Ye Qing suddenly remembered that when he was in the taxi, the old driver told Ye Qing that he had visited the aircraft carrier several times.
Ye Qing found the ticket from the side pocket and called the complaint number with the hotel phone, saying that he might have left an item in the car when he was in the car before. The complaint center quickly contacted the old driver.
The missing item was naturally a cover, and the complaint center verified that there was no item missing. Ye Qing said that he wanted the driver to go to the hotel where he was picked up. He wanted to look for it himself and was willing to bear the cost of the driver's time.
The request was quickly met, and 20 minutes later, the rental car stopped at the hotel entrance again. Ye Qing looked around the back seat, and the Master Metal Expert also called and said that the item was found in the hotel.
Everyone was happy!
Ye Qing then asked the old driver to take him to a shopping mall that was further away. On the way, the two continued to chat.
As they chatted, Ye Qing took out the aircraft carrier tour ticket he bought not long ago and led the topic to visiting the aircraft carrier.
Some people said that the old people in Japan liked to talk to people. Because their concept of family was very weak, they did not have the tradition of enjoying family happiness with their children and grandchildren in Hua Xia, so they would become very lonely when they were old.
Ye Qing did not understand the specific situation, but the gray-haired old driver really liked to chat. Along the way, he told Ye Qing about the process of visiting the aircraft carrier last year and some small episodes. When they arrived at the destination, he refused Ye Qing's extra service fee and waited in the parking lot for half an hour. He continued to chat with Ye Qing for the entire journey back.
