Chapter 6 Suzuka Maru

Chen Rui grew up by the sea, liked everything related to the sea, as well as the unknown mysterious events in the world, and spent a lot of energy on researching it.

The Suzuka Maru incident happened to happen in Bohai City, where Chen Rui lives, so Chen Rui, a hobbyist in mystics and oceanography, has some understanding of this.

"If it was really Suzuka Maru, then this matter would be interesting." Chen Rui said in a deep voice: "As far as I know, Suzuka Maru is a Japanese merchant ship. Before the end of World War II, he set off from Bohai Port and headed to Yokohama, Japan. He was shortly after going to sea and sank in the East China Sea."

Ma San was stunned, "So it was a shipwreck? What did these Japanese people look for it?"

Chen Rui said: "After the failure of the Pacific War, Japan already knew that it had exhausted its energy, so it tried its best to send the gold, silver and treasures that it had plundered in China to Japan. The Suzuka Maru was suspected to be a ship that transported gold that year. I remember that I saw it in a magazine."

"Maybe these Japanese want to salvage the gold on the boat, but unfortunately it's too long, and I can't remember all the contents. I'll wait until I go back and search before I'll say it."

Ma San's eyes lit up, "Gold!? No wonder the Japanese asked me to put down the traw net, saying that I wanted to bring some underwater equipment, and asked me if I were familiar with the undercurrents nearby. If it weren't for diving operations, where would they use it to know about these."

Chen Rui asked, "Then have you promised them?"

Ma San shook his head, "I said I would think about it for two days."

...

After being separated from Ma San, Chen Rui returned home, carrying three big crabs and a wild yellow croaker weighing half a pound.

Nowadays, Chen Rui will give some of the harvest in the sea every day. Of course, good things must be provided at home first. Unfortunately, Chen Rui's sister Chen Qiu does not usually go home, so the Shen family has only three people, and they can't eat much even if they are free.

Putting the catch in the kitchen, Chen Rui went to the second floor to check the information.

"This child, a pound of crabs can be sold for more than 100 yuan. Plus this pound of wild yellow croaker, which costs about 500 yuan, is better to sell. Just buy some small fish and shrimps to eat, which can save a lot of money." Chen Rui's mother muttered.

Chen Rui's father Chen Shi was boiling a pot of yellow wine. After hearing this, he said, "All right, this is also a child's filial piety. The next door Lao Li's house treats him today. I see that the yellow flowers he bought are only seven or eight taels in size, and they are also raised. Why don't you send this fish to them?"

"Is that so? I'll go and have a look."

Chen Rui's mother brought the wild yellow flower and went to the next door. After a while, she brought two small yellow croaker croaker, and some oysters that had been peeled.

"I don't want it. Old Li's family must take it for me. He also said he would invite you two drinks another day." Chen Rui's mother said.

Chen Rui's father smiled slightly, "He should invite me to drink. The yellow croaker weighing half a pound was placed on the table. That would be a shameful thing."

People on the Bohai Sea are concerned that there is no fish to make a table. There must be a big fish on the table. There are many foodies on the beach. It is not good to have a good look for breeding fish on the table. Only wild ones can be ashamed. Chen Rui's wild yellow flower, which is half a pound, will inevitably add a lot of color to the banquet next door tonight.

Yellow croaker is a small fish and cannot grow too big. Yellow croaker weighing one and a half pounds is already a top-notch product and can’t buy it even if you want to.

Although my parents complained that Chen Rui could not live a life all day long, they actually kept their happiness in their hearts. The neighbors wanted to get a good fish at home, and they looked for a few wild good crabs. Who did they look for? Of course, they were looking for the Shen family.

Since Chen Rui started fishing every day, the Shen family has been in the local area. When the neighbors meet, they don’t smile. Even those big ship owners like Ma San on the dock know that Chen Rui is a good player in this industry. There are not many fishing catches every day, and they all take them out. Even on the big iron-shelled boat, they may not be able to pick a better catch than Chen Rui.

Chen Rui naturally didn't care about the opinions of the neighbors. He was opening his notebook and focused on checking the information about Suzuka Maru. Even when his mother asked him to go down for dinner, she casually picked up a bowl of oyster egg noodles and returned to the room.

Until the early morning, Chen Rui finally understood the ins and outs of the Suzuka Maru.

This is a 2,000-ton cargo merchant ship, affiliated to Japan's Suzuka Co., Ltd., and this company has an indescribable connection with the Japanese military headquarters during World War II.

The Suzuka Maru sinks in the East China Sea. The only uncertain thing is what kind of cargo the ship carries at that time. It needs to set sail secretly at midnight. As a result, it encountered a typhoon before dawn and sank directly.

Nowadays, the Internet is highly developed, and there are forums established by mystic enthusiasts, which are specially used to discuss various mysterious events, called exploration forums.

Chen Rui is naturally one of the members of the Exploration Forum. His level is not low, second only to senior members of the veteran members. Most of the information about Suzuka Maru is found in this forum.

The most common saying is to transport gold, because Japan had already hit the house and was almost out of business, and the lower-level soldiers were still full of fighting spirit, but the senior officials knew that if they continued to fight like this, they would lose to the Americans sooner or later. So more than one ship set sail from China and transported gold, silver and treasures to Japan. These were all available for investigation.

The more sensational statement is to transport biological and chemical weapons. At that time, the Japanese Kwantung Army built a bacterial warfare unit in Northeast China. These biological and chemical weapons were transported back to the local area in order to break the American mermaid at the last moment.

While the Internet is developed, there is also a problem, that is, the information explosion. Chen Rui found a lot of information about Suzuka Maru, and he had to distinguish from it himself, which information is reliable and which were nonsense.

It was already late at night, Chen Rui turned off his computer and lay on the bed thinking.

In general, it is highly likely that Suzuka Maru can load a large amount of gold. Some awesome netizens even checked the historical information of the Japanese War Archives and found that Suzuka Maru can load a data of four tons of gold.

Four tons of gold?

It's not grams, nor kilograms, but tons! A whole four tons of gold!

When Chen Rui thought of this, he couldn't help but feel excited. Such wealth was lying quietly in the depths of the ocean. Who wouldn't want to take it for himself?

In the past, Chen Rui had no choice but to deal with the shipwreck, but now it is different. Chen Rui has Xiao Ba. As long as you know where the shipwreck is, Chen Rui can control Xiao Ba to fish out the shining gold from the sea!

"The key is to know the location of the shipwreck." Chen Rui turned over and said to himself.

...

He didn't sleep much at night when he was excited. Xiaoba and Shen Rui had a mental connection. He hinted several times that Chen Rui wanted to absorb some electricity, but Chen Rui ignored him.

After consuming more than two million kilowatt-hours of electricity, Xiao Ba only grew to two meters and one or three meters, and it didn't look like he would continue to grow up, which made Chen Rui slightly dissatisfied. He originally hoped that Xiao Ba could become the legendary giant sirens and slapped the humpback whale to death with a slap. Now it seems that the hope is getting slim. Maybe Xiao Ba can only grow to this big.

The next morning, Chen Rui found Ma San on the dock.

"Brother Third, we have to take this job." Chen Rui said in a deep voice.

"We?" Ma San was curious about the sharp words.
