The international definition of the territorial sea as 12 nautical miles means that the shepherd and the Ainul have to dive 12 nautical miles in the sea, which translates to 22 kilometers per kilometer.

Thanks to the shepherd, the manager of Connor's new company prepared a full set of equipment, including underwater propulsion, otherwise he could hold on for twelve nautical miles, but Ainul would definitely not be able to hold on.

Even so, when she swam out of the territorial waters of the desert island, Ainul was so tired that her face turned pale, and if it weren't for the shepherd supporting her, she wouldn't have the strength to get into the water.

The shepherd looked left and right, but there was no sign of the hidden dragon, and I didn't know if it had not yet arrived, or if it was not visible in the depths.

He glanced at his watch, there were still three minutes before the agreed meeting time, and his heart was somewhat settled, and he gestured to Ainul a few times, asking how she was doing.

Ainul waved his hand, telling him he could hold on, but the shepherd could feel the weight of Ainul in his hands, and her paddling was getting slower.

"Hurry up, what are you waiting for!"

The shepherd was anxious and kept looking around, hoping to see the submarine.

If it is placed in normal times, three minutes will pass in a blink of an eye, but now the shepherd feels longer than three years, obviously waiting for a long time, and then looking at the time has just passed a dozen seconds.

In the midst of the torment, suddenly a light came from the bottom of the sea in front of him, and then a huge black shadow appeared in the shepherd's sight.

"Great, Ainul, the ship is finally here!"

The shepherd, who was not in the water, screamed excitedly, but the sound of bubbles came out.

Although Ainul couldn't hear him clearly, he knew what he was talking about, and nodded happily.

After the submarine appeared, time seemed to return to normal again, and soon stopped more than a hundred meters in front of them.

"Let's go!"

The shepherd waved his hand at Ainul and pulled her towards the submarine.

The two of them swam above the submarine, and a hatch suddenly opened, and the sea water immediately poured into the hatch, and soon filled the pipes inside.

In the past, the hatch of the submarine could not be opened when diving, and even if there was a malfunction, most of the people needed to escape, and most of them had only one way to go, but there was no way to enter the submarine.

Some people say that this is to prevent submarines, but in fact it is not, if you want to solve the problem of water ingress, you only need to add an isolation cabin with a double-deck hatch, first open the outer hatch to lead the seawater in, and then close the outer hatch to discharge the seawater, and then open the inner hatch to let the personnel enter, which is not a complicated thing from a technical point of view.

The reason why this method was not adopted is that the space on the submarine is extremely narrow, and it can be said that every inch of land is expensive, and it is reluctant to waste such a large space.

With the development of the times, there are still more isolation cabins with double-decker doors on submarines, but the main purpose is not for personnel to enter and exit, but for submarine docking devices, which can make two submarines dock.

Whatever the purpose of this submarine docking device, it was invented, at least today, to welcome the shepherds and Ainul.

The two entered the submarine through the docking device, and immediately there was warm applause, and an officer in the captain's uniform came over, enthusiastically stretched out his hand to the shepherd, and said: "Welcome home!" ”

But at this moment, Ainul's body went limp, and he fell to the ground.

Exhausted, she finally couldn't hold on anymore after entering the submarine.

The shepherd didn't bother to greet the captain, and hurriedly bent down to pick her up, shouting urgently: "Doctor, where is the doctor?!" ”

The captain was also shocked when he saw this, and immediately shouted: "Follow me, the infirmary is here!" ”

The officers and men who had been lined up to welcome them quickly dodged a path and watched them run towards the infirmary.

Fortunately, Ainul was just physically exhausted, nothing serious, the doctor gave her some glucose, and her signs returned to normal, and she just had to rest for a while.

The shepherd was completely relieved, and finally remembered to thank the captain.

"Captain, thank you for coming to meet us and for treating Ainur."

"Don't be so polite if you're all comrades, that's what we should do," the captain replied modestly, "Originally, I had people arrange a meal to give you a run, but now it seems that we can only wait for Comrade Ainur to wake up." I think you're tired enough, why don't you go and rest, there's someone here to take care of her. ”

"Thank you for your kindness, I'll take care of her, Captain, go get busy, don't worry about me." The shepherd said.

Seeing his resolute attitude, the captain did not force it anymore, and said: "Okay, I'll let someone bring you something to eat, the conditions on the boat are simple, don't dislike it." ”

If it was before, the shepherd would definitely make a few jokes about the captain's words, but now his mind is on Ainul, so he just smiled and said, "You are so kind, thank you." ”

"Then I'll go first, and you yourself should pay attention to rest."

The captain said goodbye to the shepherd and left the infirmary, arranged for someone to bring food to the shepherd, and went back to his cabin, only to hear someone whispering in the room on the way.

"You say, what are those two people doing today, they actually asked us to pick them up, if our whereabouts are exposed, then something will happen."

"It's definitely not an ordinary person, I guess it's our agent, and he may have some important information on him......"

The man had barely said anything when the hatch was slammed open, and the captain's dark face appeared in the doorway.

"What nonsense! I have repeatedly stressed that this matter is not allowed to be discussed, have you forgotten? ”

The two soldiers were so frightened that they hurriedly stood upright, bowed their heads and reprimanded the captain, and did not even dare to say a word of justification.

In fact, the captain himself was also speculating in his heart: "Where are these two gods, and they actually asked me to answer them, and we don't dare to ask or say ......."

The shepherd, whom he regarded as a great god, ate the food that was sent to him, and quietly stood by Ainul's bedside, but his thoughts drifted back to the continental United States.

"I don't know how Xian'er is doing now, whether they have escaped from the pursuit of the Americans, and whether the situation is urgent......

He didn't know that the situation of the Qianlong Fourth Team was urgent at all, and at this moment they were leisurely browsing the American countryside, and the real emergency was Blackwater.

Simmons flew to Longbrandg with five Blackwater teams as fast as he could, and then threw himself into the search for the Hidden Dragons Team Four.

While Long Branch is not on the East Coast of the United States, with a population of just over 30,000 people, it is home to thousands of visitors every day, with large resorts, parks, beaches, universities, churches, national laboratories, racetracks, and a variety of homes that are home to the city.

It would undoubtedly be difficult to find the Dragon Four among these tourists, but in the eyes of the Blackwater team, who have home field advantage, it is nothing more than a trivial matter.

As soon as they landed, they received information from the intelligence analysis department, which was the list of guests staying at all the hotels and B&Bs in Long Branch today, among which the people who arrived after the disappearance of the Qianlong Four were grouped together.

These people are men, women, old and young, but all of them are listed as key investigation targets, because Heishui knows that it is not difficult for Qianlong to change his face, and it is normal to become a women's clothing boss in order to escape. As for those children, of course, it is impossible for them to be disguised as Qianlong, but don't forget that there is already enough evidence to prove that there are Huaxia agents helping the Qianlong Fourth Team, who can guarantee that these children are not the disguises arranged for them by Huaxia agents?

The five Blackwater teams acted separately, screening and investigating one by one according to the list.

"Target 1 Exclusion."

"Target 13 Exclusion."

"Target 27 excludes ......"

Simmons listened to the report from Ron and the others, and raised his pen to cross the target they said off the list, and as time went on, fewer and fewer names remained on the list, and finally the list was full of red crosses.

"Keep checking, check forward, someone may have checked in for them in advance. In addition, continue to monitor the dynamics of the terminal......"

Simmons was not only not discouraged, but was inspired by the defeat, and one order after another was issued from his mouth, and the Blackwater force, the CIA, and the police at all levels continued to adjust and deploy according to his orders.

"A dozen young people came to the marina for a yacht party...... After the inspection, there was no suspicion. ”

"Tourists who entered the city three hours ago have been found, and no suspicious persons have been found......"

"We have searched uninhabited premises and found nothing......"

One bad news after another came, and Simmons' brow became more and more furrowed.

"It's worthy of the Hidden Dragon, worthy of the Hidden Dragon Team 4 that can defeat Jeriman, obviously in Longbrandy, but it can hide so much that I can't find it. But don't worry, the game has just begun, so we'll see. ”

Simmons sneered twice and clenched his fists as if he was about to crush the four dragons.

At this moment, the phone rang suddenly, and Simmons glanced at the caller number and immediately answered it.

"Any clues?"

"Yes Mr. Simmons, we checked the vehicle theft and transaction information for the corresponding time period, and found that a second-hand car company sold two pickup trucks one after another, and the buyer used the Internet to transfer ownership, and there was no problem with the identity information. But we contacted the buyer and the answer was that they were traveling abroad. ”

It's finally revealed!

Simmons stood up excitedly, and his chair was knocked out of the way.

"Send me the license plate numbers of those two cars right away!"

"Mr. Simmons, please hear me out. We checked the traffic monitoring system in Lang Blanche and found no of the two cars, and according to our analysis, it is very likely that they did not go to Long Branch......"

"Fack!"

Simmons kicked his foot out, and his desk flew out.
