"No problem."
"I can handle it myself," Lin Yi said.
"We’re all on the same team, boss, no need to stand on ceremony."
Shao Jianfeng laughed and kicked Zhao Yunhu, "You go down first."
"Damn you!"
"Haha, I’m here to join you."
The two of them didn’t give Lin Yi a chance to refuse and entered the lake one after another.
Lin Yi did not delay any longer, and dove in with a splash.
The icy cold penetrated his clothes instantly.
But for the three of them, such an environment was bearable.
The visibility underwater was lower than what they had imagined.
Inside were many wispy substances, significantly affecting the ability to observe underwater conditions.
Holding a large breath, Lin Yi patted the shoulders of the two men, pointed in two directions, instructing them to separate.
Diving quickly, Lin Yi reached the lake bottom at a depth of more than twenty meters.
At the lake bottom, the light was scattered, causing brightness to be very low.
The floating wisps further severely affected vision.
Standing at the bottom of the lake, Lin Yi closed his eyes.
Listening to the sounds of the lake bottom.
Whoosh, whoosh——
Whoosh, whoosh——
Slightly strange sounds entered Lin Yi’s ears.
Yet, he could not confirm how these sounds were produced.
He couldn’t even determine the source direction of the sounds.
Lin Yi, with eyes closed, tried to walk underwater, attempting to find the direction the sounds were coming from.
The continuously strange sounds showed no signs that could be searched.
Even Lin Yi was helpless under such circumstances.
After walking underwater for two minutes, he stopped trying.
He glanced at Zhao Yunhu and Shao Jianfeng and began to float upwards.
At this moment, those slightly strange sounds ceased.
Lin Yi could not be sure if they truly disappeared or if it was due to his lack of focus.
But waves stirred in his heart, causing unrest.
After about a minute, the three of them simultaneously surfaced.
As soon as they broke the surface, Sui Qiang and the others pulled them up.
Sitting on the ground, they breathed heavily.
"What’s the situation down there?"
"Didn’t find anything," Lin Yi said:
"But such an inspection is not thorough, we still need professional equipment."
"I ordered three sets of diving equipment earlier, but it’ll take a few hours to arrive."
"Let’s wait," Lin Yi said:
"You guys go check other areas, keep an eye on the surroundings, and conduct exploration once the equipment arrives."
"Got it."
Sui Qiang took Yu Siying and Luo Qi and hid in cover.
Lin Yi, with Shao Jianfeng and Zhao Yunhu, returned to the car to dry their clothes.
Ordinarily, if he had diving equipment, Lin Yi would eagerly go down to investigate first thing.
But the slightly strange sound from the lake bottom made him hesitant to try rashly.
"Boss, did you two hear a whoosh whoosh down there?" Zhao Yunhu asked.
"You heard it too?"
The two nodded, Shao Jianfeng said:
"It was intermittent, I didn’t hear it clearly. If Hu Zi hadn’t mentioned it, I’d have ignored it."
"I was just mentioning it casually, honestly, I can’t be sure what it was," Zhao Yunhu said:
