1644. An Inuit
Li Du must find Steve, one because of the promise, he carries Elson's hope, and the other because Bit knows his secret, and perhaps the others who are companions with him may also know it.
He also needs to know the information about the Flying Worm of Time. After listening to Bit, he had a premonition that if he could find Steve, he might be able to know the specific identity of the Flying Worm of Time.
So he cleared out an area on the island and temporarily camped on it, but there was only supply in the camp, and people still lived on the other side.
The Lost Island is somewhat weird. He didn't know the situation of the island and dared not stay on it for too long. He believed that the Inuit boy's warning made sense.
There are helicopters and some daily necessities on the island. Bodyguards and other daily necessities are on the shore. They go to the island to search during the day and return to the camp to rest at night.
These days, their diet is quite good. Lake Anjikuni is rich in various freshwater fish. The freshwater fish in the cold zone grows slowly and have good meat quality. Li Du is very happy to eat it.
After careful search, no one was found in the Lost Island, but traces of some people's lives were found.
But this cannot prove anything. When they were inquiring about the news in Guoxiang Town, some people said that adventurers occasionally landed on the island, perhaps this was a trace left by adventurers.
Elson spared no effort to find Steve's whereabouts. He used his connections to install a surveying and mapping radar for the helicopter. Through this radar, the entire island can be scanned and 3D terrain maps can be created, including traces of life.
However, I don’t know what harsh magnetic substances are contained in the ore of Misty Land, and the 3D topographic map produced is unclear and helps little.
3D scanning of the terrain map is of no help, and even if it is clear, it is useless. Brother Wolf took his people to search the island with the help of Ah Miao and Ah Ah, but there was no trace of people.
No one was found on the island or the lake surface. If you want to find someone, you have to make your mind into the lake.
Li Du didn't believe that anyone could live underwater. This was a bit too mysterious. He wouldn't have stared at the lake, but the Inuit boy disappeared into the lake under his nose, which was unreasonable.
These days he bought a lot of diving equipment, diving suits, submersibles, thrusters, underwater video recorders, etc., and all kinds of tools were in place.
It was confirmed that there was no discovery on the island, and Li Du was going to lead a team into the lake to search.
This is a bigger project and is dangerous.
Lake Anjikuni is a large lake with an average depth of fifty-five meters and a deepest depth of nearly six hundred meters. Without the help of a submersible, it is impossible to search by people alone.
When Elson learned that he was going to go into the water to search, he called him.
The old man's voice became even more tired: "Li, do you want to search the entire lake?"
Li Du said: "Not found on the water surface now, so I have to go under the water surface to take a look."
After hearing this, Elson sighed and said, "This is a hard time. Lake Angekune is too large."
Li Du smiled and said, "This is no problem. I radiate to the surroundings with the Lost Island as the center. I have to look carefully anyway, otherwise I will regret missing something."
Elson said gratefully: "Thank you, I'm sorry I can't help directly. Now the business of the two families, there are too many news and other things, so I can't get out of here."
Li Du agreed: "This is what I should do."
Elson was unable to arrive at the site, but he was satisfied with any requests for supplies.
The connections of the big family began to show off. The Canadian Navy contacted Li Du, and they sent a team of frogmen to assist in the investigation.
Li Du first arranged for frogs to place cameras underwater for monitoring, because the lake water was a little turbid and the camera didn't work much, but at least there was more than nothing, and it was better than nothing.
A vigorous underwater search began. Elson was preparing to mobilize small submarines to air transport. Of course, what he mobilized was not military submarines, but small tourist submarines. Li Du had seen them in Australia.
The Lost Island is the protrusion of the earth's crust in the lake, starting from the edge of the island and gradually deepening into the lake.
Li Du arranged for the frogman to gradually place the camera, and he first monitored the island around it.
After working hard for more than a week, tens of thousands of cameras were arranged, but this was just a rush of the sea. It was just monitoring the island, and most of the waters in the lake were still hidden in the mystery.
In mid-July, in the morning, Li Du was studying the water map. He was planning to use a 3D mapper to detect the bottom of the lake to see if there were any abnormalities at the bottom of the lake.
At this moment, his walkie-talkie rang, and Little Macklov's voice came out: "Boss, an Inuit person is visiting, he is looking for you."
Li Du immediately said, "Let him come in."
He set up a small camp by the lake, just like a military camp, with various tools and instruments. Because these things are very valuable, in order to prevent someone from stealing, he also arranged guards, which looked more like a military camp.
Little Macklov brought a middle-aged man. He was simple in dress, short in size, and had the characteristics of Inuit, but what attracted Li Du the most was that his skin was very white, just like the Inuit boy Li Du had seen before.
After the two sides met, the middle-aged man was straight to the point. They didn't even introduce themselves and asked in stiff English: "Hello, sir, what are you doing here?"
Li Du smiled and said, "I'm looking for something in the lake."
The middle-aged man said, "Are you fishing in the lake? There are no shipwrecks or any treasures in this lake."
Li Du said: "I don't look for treasures or fish. I'm looking for a missing friend of mine."
The middle-aged man widened his eyes in surprise and said, "Have your friend swam in the lake and then drowned?"
Li Du shook his head: "I don't know the specifics. Anyway, I have to find him. In fact, what I am looking for is not a person, but a group of very important people. I have to search carefully. What are you looking for for me?"
The middle-aged man took a deep breath and said, "I'm just curious. I've seen so many people appear by the lake and appear for so long..."
"Where did you come from?" Li Du suddenly interrupted him and asked.
The middle-aged man was stunned and said, "Where did I come from? Why are you asking this?"
Li Du instinctively felt that he had a problem, and his reaction and answer made him feel stronger.
So he asked immediately: "Don't worry about me. When you enter my camp, of course I have to know you. How old are you? Where are you from? What's your name? What's your ID? I need to know your specific identity!"
The middle-aged man rubbed his hands and said, "My identity, my identity has nothing to do with you. I mean, alas, I'm here to deliver the letter..."
