Chapter 446: Gathering at the Seaside
The sea breeze blows gently, with a hint of saltiness, and the sea surface shimmers like countless tiny lenses reflecting the sunlight.
Ye Fan'er, wearing a dark red cloak, slowly walked down from the armed helicopter. Her eyes looked across the vast sea into the distance.
There, it is shrouded in fog and is full of unknown.
"What a peaceful morning." Ye Faner whispered to herself with a faint smile on her lips.
There was a determined glint in her eyes, as if she was thinking about something important.
The air around seemed to become quiet, with only the waves gently lapping against the shore, making a soft sound.
Suddenly, the sound of horse-drawn hooves broke the silence.
The illusory carriage slowly approached, and its wheels left shallow marks on the beach.
Chen Fuzhi got out of the car, wearing a long robe and with a tired look on his face.
"Commander Ye, you're here so early?" There was a hint of helplessness in Chen Fuzhi's voice.
"Same to you, Chen Fuzhi." Ye Fan'er turned to look at him, a hint of helplessness in the smile on her lips. "Did anything happen?"
Chen Fuzhi shook his head and sighed: "Every time something happens, we are always the first to be called. This has become the norm."
Ye Faner nodded slightly, and the two stood side by side on the beach, looking at the mist.
The sea breeze gently brushed across their faces, bringing a hint of coolness, but also making people feel a little refreshed.
"I don't know what the situation is this time." Chen Fuzi said softly, with a hint of helplessness in his tone.
"Yes," Ye Faner whispered, "This world is always full of unknowns and challenges."
The two were silent for a while, and the sound of the waves became clearer and clearer, as if telling some unknown secret.
Suddenly, Ye Faner's cell phone rang. She frowned slightly, reached into her pocket, took out her cell phone, and answered the call.
"Hello, I'm Ye Faner." Her voice was calm and powerful.
An urgent voice came from the other end of the phone: "Commander Ye, something happened! Lin Qiye and Wu Hen rushed into the fog to rescue Zhou Ping'er, the situation is critical!"
Ye Faner's expression instantly turned serious, and she quickly responded: "I understand, we will be there soon."
After hanging up the phone, Ye Faner turned to look at Chen Fuzhi, her eyes revealing firmness and determination: "Chen Fuzhi, the situation has changed. Lin Qiye and Wu Hen rushed into the fog to rescue Zhou Ping'er."
Chen Fuzhi's brows furrowed, a trace of worry flashing in his eyes: "What about Guan Zaier? Has he come out?"
"Not yet, but he should be soon." Ye Faner said in a low voice with a firm look in her eyes, "We can't wait any longer."
As soon as she finished speaking, Ye Faner turned around and took big strides towards the depths of the fog, with Chen Fuzhi following closely behind.
The sea breeze blew past again, carrying away their words and leaving only a peaceful seaside.
The cell phone rang suddenly. Ye Faner frowned and picked up the call.
The next second, the expression on her face was as if she had swallowed a live fly, which was very exciting.
"Commander Ye, something terrible has happened! Lin Qiye and that psychopath Wu Hen have rushed into the fog on a colorful cloud! They claim to be going to rescue Zhou Ping'er!"
The voice on the other end of the phone was urgent and fast, like frying beans.
The corner of Ye Faner's eyes twitched. Colorful auspicious clouds?
Are these two guys trying to transcend tribulation and ascend to heaven here?
She repeated in disbelief, "Seven-colored auspicious clouds? Are they filming Journey to the West here?"
"It's absolutely true! What did Wu Hen say... uh, he said he wanted to perform a magic trick for Zhou Ping'er..."
The other party's voice weakened, and it was obvious that he was powerless to complain about Wu Hen's train of thought.
Ye Faner hung up the phone, took a deep breath, and complained to Chen Fuzhi: "These two troublesome things! How many times have I told them not to mess around, and now look what happened, they just went straight to heaven!"
"No one knows what's going on in this fog. If they rush in, won't they just be asking for their lives?!"
She was so angry that she cursed, "I￥@%……&*!"
"Calm down, calm down." Chen Fuzhi was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. Commander Ye usually looked calm even when faced with a catastrophe, but why did he lose his composure when he met Wu Hen?
"Don't be calm!" Ye Fan'er paced back and forth like an ant on a hot pan. "That's fog! Who knows what monsters are hiding in it! What if they..."
At this moment, a deafening roar was heard in the distance, followed by a rolling fog, as if some gigantic creature was awakening...
Ye Faner turned her head suddenly, her expression changed suddenly: "Not good!"
Ye Faner scratched her hair irritably, like an old mother who was furious with her naughty child.
Chen Fuzhi was so amused watching from the side that he couldn't help but tease, "Commander Ye, you're so worried that someone who didn't know you would think you were Wu Hen's father!"
"Shut up!" Ye Faner glared at him fiercely. "I'm considering the overall situation! If something happens to them, who will be responsible?"
"Yes, yes, you are a mature and steady old man, and you are good at planning. I admire you very much." Chen Fuzhi bowed with a teasing smile on his face.
"Stop talking nonsense!" Ye Faner rolled her eyes at him unhappily, but she knew in her heart that Chen Fuzi was deliberately using this method to relieve her tension.
Just then, the rumbling sound of an electric bike came from far away, breaking the slightly awkward atmosphere between the two.
I saw Lu Weiwu rushing over on a pink Hello Kitty electric scooter, with all kinds of snack bags hanging on the scooter.
"Sorry, sorry, I'm late!" Lu Weiwu braked suddenly and stopped in front of the two people.
With a hint of apology on his face, he said, "The traffic jams on the road are so bad that I doubt my life. These days, even electric bikes can't go fast."
As he spoke, he picked up two cups of milk tea from the car and handed one to Ye Faner: "Here, your favorite, taro bubble milk tea, with sugar and ice."
Ye Faner took the milk tea and felt a little calmer.
I have to say that although Lu Weiwu is usually not very reliable, he is still very reliable at critical moments.
"Tell me, what's the urgent matter?" Lu Weiwu asked curiously after taking a sip of milk tea.
Ye Fan'er briefly recounted the story of Lin Qiye and Wu Hen rushing into the fog. After Lu Weiwu finished listening,
He nearly spit out a mouthful of milk tea. "Colorful auspicious clouds? Magical transformation? Are these two going there to make fun of me?"
"Who knows," Ye Faner sighed helplessly, "Now I just hope they can come back safely."
Suddenly, the fog on the sea surface rolled violently, as if something was about to break out of its cocoon.
"Here it comes!" Chen Fuzi's face changed and he said in a deep voice.
The three of them looked into the depths of the fog at the same time, their hearts filled with uneasiness.
At this moment, a figure walked out from a tent not far away. He was thin.
Wearing a pair of black-framed glasses and with a hint of fatigue in his eyes, he is the technical expert Guan Zaier who has been in seclusion for many days.
He rubbed his aching temples, stretched himself, and muttered, "Finally got it done. This code is killing me..."
As soon as he looked up, he saw Ye Faner, Chen Fuzhi and Lu Weiwu staring solemnly into the depths of the fog. The atmosphere was extremely tense.
"What's going on? You look like the world is ending."
Guan Zaier asked in bewilderment, "Where's Zhou Ping'er? Where did that guy go?"
Ye Faner took a deep breath and briefly told Guan Zaier about Zhou Pinger, Lin Qiye and Wu Hen rushing into the fog.
After hearing this, Guan Zaier's face suddenly changed. The original fatigue disappeared, and was replaced by deep worry.
He suddenly clenched his fists, and countless flashing virtual characters suddenly appeared around him, like streams of data flying around him.
"No, I have to help them!"
Guan Zaier spoke in a firm tone and was about to rush towards the fog.
"Wait!" Ye Fan'er grabbed him and said, "Calm down! The situation in the fog is unclear. It's too dangerous for you to rush in!"
Guan Zaier turned around suddenly, a hint of anger in his eyes: "Danger? Zhou Ping'er is my friend, I can't just watch him die!"
"I know you are worried about him, but now is not the time to act on impulse!" Ye Fan'er refused to give in. The two of them stared at each other, and the air was filled with tension.
Seeing this, Lu Weiwu was about to step forward to persuade him, but was stopped by Chen Fuzhi.
Chen Fuzhi shook his head, signaling him not to interfere.
The fog rolled more violently, as if something terrible was about to break out.
The sea breeze was howling, and the waves were crashing against the shore, making bursts of roars, as if they were also wailing for the impending crisis.
Guan Zaier stared at Ye Faner intently...
