A few minutes later, Zhang Xiaofeng returned and said,""Mr. Ye, Miss Zhao, we just located your radio station again, but it seems that due to interference, we can only locate a rough range. The good news is that this range is the same as the information you provided previously…We have already provided this information to the rescue team.”
"So fast?" Ye Qing was shocked and did not react in time.
Zhao Ling was also stunned. She looked at Ye Qing and then at the radio station, as if she couldn't believe that this was actually true.
Zhang Xiaofeng said," The news from the rescue command center is that there are already a few search and rescue teams near your place. The information you gave is very useful, so there are already teams on the way. I believe they will find you very soon."”
"What preparations do we need to make?”Ye Qing asked.
If he could get out of here, of course, he didn't want to stay on this island. From Zhang Xiaofeng's words, there was still a high chance that he and Zhao Ling could get out. He didn't want to just sit and wait.
" Of course, if you have the conditions," Zhang Xiaofeng said," it's best if you guys make some signs too. For example, make a fire by the sea. That way, the search and rescue team will find you faster."”
"That's not a problem. Give me some time.”Ye Qing agreed immediately.
Zhang Xiaofeng's suggestion could be said to be the same as his. Although they had moved away from their original location, there were many trees on the island that could burn thick smoke. Now that they had the stone axe as a tool, it was not difficult for Ye Qing to build a bonfire.
After making the plan, Ye Qing couldn't sit still anymore. He asked Zhao Ling to stand guard by the radio station and inform him immediately if there was any new news. Ye Qing called Little Black and carried the stone axe out.
As for Little Blue, it was sent out by him. Using the advantage of being able to fly, it circled in the sky near the sea. If it found a ship, it would also receive a notification.
It could be said that in order to get out, Ye Qing had already used all his methods.
With the stone axe, his work efficiency had indeed increased a lot. It took Ye Qing less than an hour to build a bonfire that took half a day to build. It was taller and bigger than any of the bonfires he had built before.
Of course, Little Black's contribution was not small. Basically, every time Ye Qing cut down a certain number of trees, he would let Little Black move them to the beach first, saving Ye Qing a lot of time and time.
After the bonfire was built, Ye Qing lit it immediately. When the fire stabilized, he returned to the cave and told Zhang Xiaofeng about the progress.
Zhang Xiaofeng made another phone call. This time, he put it on speaker. A gust of sea breeze came from the other end of the radio station. Then, a man called Captain Wu shouted,"We have seven search and rescue teams working together and have already narrowed the search area by half. If nothing goes wrong, we will find survivors very soon.”
This was good news. Ye Qing was excited, but at the same time, he was inexplicably nervous because of his previous speculation.
However, this island was too mysterious, which made Ye Qing somewhat uneasy.
Zhao Ling was also very uneasy. Father Zhao had been comforting her on the other end of the radio station, but it had no effect.
"Ye Qing, are we really going out soon?”
Ye Qing did not know how to answer this question.
But in order to take care of Zhao Ling's emotions, he still comforted her,""Don't worry. Since the search and rescue team said that there's no problem, then there's no problem. What we should be thinking about now is that today's work has been in vain.”
As he spoke, Ye Qing forced out a smile. He looked at the brand new wooden bed and shelves in the cave with some reluctance.
Zhao Ling burst into laughter when she heard him say that. She said,"Haha, we're almost out, and you're still worried about your trash?”
"How can this be called junk? Let me tell you, if this were to be placed outside, my skills might earn me a lot of money.”Ye Qing straightened his neck and said.
"Tsk, everyone likes Simmons these days. Who would want to sleep on your wooden bed? Not only is it uncomfortable, but it might collapse one day and even endanger their lives.”
Both of them had some mental problems. They were arguing with each other, as if this could bring them some peace.
No one on the other end of the radio station said anything. They were probably not much more relaxed than Ye Qing and Zhao Ling.
As time passed, a phone suddenly rang, pulling everyone's attention together.
It was Zhang Xiaofeng's phone. He picked up the call immediately after the first ring and put it on speaker.
"Officer Zhang…our third search and rescue team just sent news that they found an island…but they didn't find the bonfire you mentioned. Moreover, that island isn't really an island. It's just a barren reef with no survivors on it.”
As soon as these words came out, it was like a basin of cold water that could freeze people, ruthlessly pouring on everyone's hearts.
Zhang Xiaofeng was stunned for a long time before he said,"Did you…miss something?”
"That's impossible. Each of our search and rescue teams has the latest and most comprehensive equipment in their hands, and we're always in contact with each other. Moreover, we're indeed searching within the range provided by you, so there won't be such a mistake.”Captain Wu said.
Ye Qing's heart sank as he shouted at the radio station,""Captain Wu? Is it raining over there? I heard thunder."
There was still some light on the island. The huge sunset was hanging in the sky. Not to mention rain, there was not even a cloud. If the other party was nearby, why was the weather so different?
Captain Wu quickly shouted," It's indeed raining here. This damn weather. It was still…Sizzle…"
Before he could finish, there was a burst of electromagnetic interference, and then there was no sound.
"What happened?" Ye Qing asked anxiously.
On the other end of the radio station, Zhang Xiaofeng was also dumbfounded by this turn of events. Ye Qing could hear him tapping his phone on the radio station. Then, he muttered,"Isn't the rescue team using a satellite phone? Why is the signal so bad?"
Zhao Ling's father, who was at the side, also became nervous. He said in a deep voice,"Officer Zhang, what's going on?”
How would Zhang Xiaofeng know? He could only say to Father Zhao and the two people from the radio station,"Don't worry, I'll go ask around and be back soon.”
Then, there was the sound of footsteps leaving.
A gust of wind blew over, bringing with it the salty taste of seafood. The tide was about to rise.
