Chapter 55 Coming ashore
The white hull with a hint of blue and the five big red characters "Haiming Island Garrison" made Shi Xia feel more like he was on patrol under orders.

The fast-moving speedboat brought up a blowing sea breeze, and a dozen seagulls flew above them, calling "oo oo oo" non-stop.

On the right side of the speedboat is Fatty, who is chasing after the relaxed crowd, going up and down from time to time and having fun.

Captain Cheng sat opposite Shi Xia, relaxed as he picked up a small fish and threw it to the seagull.

The seagull with a gray body and white wings swooped down and accurately caught the small fish in mid-air, then glided away quickly, waiting for the next feeding.

"Tell me, can I feed a fat kid?"

Captain Cheng looked expectantly at Shi Xia across from him, but his eyes revealed the disdain of an old father.

"Comrade Shi Xia, could you please sit up straighter?"

Shi Xia was leaning on a chair, with her legs crossed on the chair opposite her and a straw hat on her head.

If you look closely, you can see that there is a string on the straw hat, tied under her head.

This nonchalant attitude is no less than Wen Cheng'an's before.

"Can I speed up the boat if I sit upright?"

"No."

"I am your soldier?"

"No."

Shi Xia’s silence was deafening: So what does it matter how she sits?
Captain Cheng was speechless and helpless. He then threw out another fish and asked again.

"Do you think it's possible?"

"I don't know, but I know birds like to poop when they eat too much."

"what?"

Captain Cheng turned his head and felt a wet and sticky touch on his right cheek, with a sour smell drifting in the wind.

Captain Cheng's body was stiff, he put down the fish in his hand, clenched his fist and then released it.

He seriously suspected that it was Shi Xia who told the bird, but unfortunately he had no evidence.

"Captain, here's some paper!"

Zhao Tian handed the paper over and turned around to smile.

After Captain Cheng wiped it clean, he washed it again and finally got rid of the unpleasant smell.

The rest of the journey was very quiet. Shi Xia did whatever he felt comfortable with, and his supernatural powers became stronger and stronger as he operated.

Three hours and twenty-four minutes later, the ship finally arrived at its destination.

Shi Xia woke up promptly, took off his straw hat, put it on his head, and began to put on his black rubber jacket without saying a word.

Battalion Commander Cheng, who was about to tell her to get ready, swallowed his words silently.

Don’t worry about anything else, Shi Xia is really quick and easy when doing things.

After putting on his rubber jacket, Shi Xia looked towards the small island surrounded by fog in front of him. He extended his supernatural power and followed the water flow to detect information ahead.

"The ship's radar stopped working as soon as it got to the front, and the fog inside was thicker, making it difficult to tell the direction, so the ship couldn't get close."

"We have tried to cross it ourselves, but the current below is very strange, the resistance is very strong, and it is easy to sweep people away."

Battalion Commander Cheng told us the information he knew.

"Got it. I'll go up first."

"Okay, tie two ropes just in case, and bring the flare gun with you. If it doesn't work, retreat in time."

Shi Xia nodded in agreement and tied the prepared rope.

As long as she can reach it safely, the rest of the soldiers can follow the rope and secure themselves before they can get through.

Shi Xia is ready to enter the water.

"Wait, you're not taking the killer whale with you?"

Captain Cheng looked at Shi Xia who was eager to try and felt a little worried. He was attracted by the power of the killer whale.

Shi Xia turned around and smiled confidently.

"Captain Cheng, the killer whale can't beat me."

After saying this simple sentence, Shi Xia jumped, stretched his body, and dived into the sea like a nimble fish.

"careful!"

Captain Cheng looked out to sea with worry, feeling a surge of frustration. This was supposed to be their job, and now they were letting a little girl do it. This was a dereliction of their training.

There is still a long way to go in building the navy.

Shi Xia had no idea what Captain Cheng was thinking. She started to use her special abilities after entering the sea.

The supernatural power blocked the chaotic undercurrents around her and maintained a smooth path for her.

The island ahead is a mystery, and Shi Xia is very interested.

It might be dangerous, but she believed every danger was an opportunity.

The excitement of exploring the unknown made Shi Xia's eyes sparkle.

His legs were like flexible fish tails, his hands stirred the water, and his waist and abdomen exerted strength, and Shi Xia swam flexibly and far away.

If someone could see it, there was a group of small fish surrounding Shi Xia, but no matter how close the small fish tried to get, they could not get close to Shi Xia.

One cannot feel the passage of time underwater, and Captain Cheng on the boat was staring at his watch.

The seconds pass by.

Their vision was obstructed, and they couldn't see whether Shi Xia came out from the bottom of the sea or where he swam to.

"call out--!"

"Battalion Commander! Comrade Shi has come ashore!"

Zhao Tian pointed at the green smoke bomb in the sky, clenched his fist excitedly, and shouted "Awesome!"
Battalion Commander Cheng looked up and finally felt relieved.

This was the signal they and Shi Xia had agreed upon. The first green light meant she had safely reached shore.

Next, they had to wait for Shi Xia to send out another flare, which would mean that she had fixed the rope and they could go into the sea.

"Get ready and go to the sea immediately."

"Yes!"

Zhao Tian stood at attention, saluted, and took action, well-trained.

The next day, after Shi Xia came ashore, he was looking at the island in front of him with surprise.

The tall trees were lush and green, and she saw several coconut trees at first glance.

There are also coconut trees on Haisan Island, but the coconuts are gone, having been picked away by children long ago.

Shi Xia took off his plastic suit, tied it with a rope and put it on his back. He held the machete he brought with him in his hand, found a place to tie the rope first, and asked them to come over.

The rope was very long. Shi Xia pulled the rope and walked upwards, tying the two ropes to the rock and the coconut tree respectively.

After tying it up, she took out the signal gun from the waterproof bag again and fired a signal.

At the moment the green smoke from the signal gun exploded, Captain Cheng shouted for action, and the guns went into action.

More than a dozen soldiers went into the sea without hesitation, and Captain Cheng was the last one.

They have to swim along the rope.

After sending the landing signal, Shi Xia did not leave, but just sat next to the rope to help reinforce it.

There were too many undercurrents below, and it wouldn't be as easy for them to swim over as it was for her.

As for using her supernatural powers to help them eliminate the undercurrent...she wouldn't do it.

Because it is impossible for them to take her with them every time they go on a mission.

If you want to survive, you must have the ability to live.

When Captain Cheng and his twelve companions spent forty minutes getting ashore, they saw Shi Xia eating a coconut and waving to them.

"Hey—thirsty?"

“Come and eat coconut!”

Captain Cheng and his team had exhausted all their strength when they got ashore. They were all gasping for breath and trying to recover.

If they didn't have the rope, they would have been almost washed away several times in the water.

It was extremely dangerous, but the person who came first only took ten minutes and even ate the coconut leisurely.

Captain Cheng wondered to himself for the umpteenth time: Why isn't she his soldier?!

A few minutes later, Captain Cheng and his team prepared to go up.

"Shi Xia, be careful!"
