After about ten minutes, the salvage team members floated up, because the bottom of the well was too deep, and they couldn't stand the pressure before they dived halfway. According to the salvage personnel, the well should have been built as a backup water source and should be 80 meters deep, which brought great resistance to the salvage work. Moreover, it has been abandoned for many years. No one knows if there are any other dangers below. If there is a direct underground river below, the degree of danger will be self-evident.

After a full five minutes of rest, the salvage personnel dived again.

This time, about fifteen minutes passed, and they surfaced together again. This time, they couldn't stand it when they dived about 50 meters above the well.

Normal salvage work will not be done in particularly deep waters, because divers can generally only dive to a depth of 10-60 meters.

If you want to continue diving, you need more advanced diving equipment, but inland cities like Chuncheng City obviously do not have such equipment.

Zhang Meng called Li An and asked him to transfer diving equipment from other places. It would take more than 3 hours. Although it takes a long time, there is no other way now.

Zhang Meng hung up the phone and explained to everyone that when the equipment arrived, he thought it would be better to send Liu Jinyue back first. After all, she is a woman, and it is useless to wait here all the time. The sky is getting darker and darker, and it seems that a heavy rain will come soon.

The air is humid and there are more and more mosquitoes nearby. There is really no need to suffer with them.

"Liu, forensic doctor, why don't you go back first and wait for us to send the equipment. If there is any new discovery, we will send it to you as soon as possible."

Seeing the weather getting darker, Liu Jinyue felt that what he said made some sense. It was not that she could not endure the hardship, but mainly because there was no need for it. Now she might as well go back to the forensic room and dissect the two bodies.

Cui Jue was not simply waiting for someone to send the diving equipment. Now there were only a little more than 4 days left in the 7-day case-solving period, and they had no time to waste.

He walked to the salvage personnel alone and asked about the requirements and skills of salvage.

With his photographic memory and intelligence higher than that of ordinary people.

Cui Jue quickly understood the skills needed for salvage and how to dive quickly.

In fact, diving is very simple. You just need to learn some simple tricks. The only problem is the depth of the dive. The deeper you go, the greater the water pressure. It requires systematic training by professionals, plus continuous fitness to improve the body's ability to resist pressure.

After Cui Jue understood, he felt that he could give it a try. He had been playing with his friends near the moat since he was a child. When Cui Dingjun was not retired due to illness, he often beat him because he and Lin Hu went to the river to take a bath together. As for his ability to withstand pressure, he estimated that he had no problem at all.

He found Zhang Meng who was about to send Liu Jinyue away and told him about his plan to go down.

Hearing Cui Jue's proposal, Zhang Meng refused without thinking.

"Impossible, even the professional salvage personnel have not gone to the bottom. In the unknown environment underwater, how can you guarantee your safety."

"Brother Meng, I just asked, salvage is nothing more than stress resistance, you also know how strong my physical fitness is, and I have been fishing in the river with Hu Zi since I was a child, just let me try."

"Impossible, we just have to wait for 3 hours until the diving equipment is delivered, you don't have to take this risk at all."

After hearing Zhang Meng's words, Cui Jue still did not give up the idea of ​​going down the well, because now every minute and every second of time cannot be delayed, and continued to speak.

"But if we really wait for three hours and still can't salvage it, how much time do we have left to wait?"

After listening to Cui Jue's words, Zhang Meng also fell silent.

Su Yu heard the conversation between the two and came over. He first glanced at Zhang Meng, and then turned to ask Cui Jue.

"Xiao Jue, if you go down, how sure are you that you can dive to the bottom of the well?"

"Brother Su, I'm 90% sure."

In fact, Cui Jue felt that he was 100% sure, but underwater is not like on the ground. The underground river will produce a lot of suction. If he accidentally gets caught in the whirlpool, it will take a lot of effort to get out.

But if they don't go down, the things abandoned by the murderer here will not be discovered by them.

The reason why this well must be dug is because everyone believes that the murderer walked so far and wasted so much effort, and must have abandoned important evidence here, which is very likely to be the victim.

The head of a human being, otherwise there would be no need to seal the well mouth with such a big stone.

Hearing Cui Jue's affirmation, Su Yu also made the decision to agree to Cui Jue going down, but he must ensure his own safety.

…………

After Cui Jue put on his equipment, tied a safety rope around his waist and walked to the well, sat on the bamboo basket that reached the water surface and prepared to go down the well.

Zhang Meng watched Cui Jue being slowly put down, opened his mouth and fell silent, just walked to the well and silently watched the movement on the water surface.

Su Yu also came over and patted Zhang Meng on the shoulder.

"Don't worry, Xiao Jue is no longer the little devil who only made trouble. He is now a policeman. Now all we can do is pray that he can find evidence and come up safely."

Cui Jue didn't know the situation above, because at this moment he had dived to a position 20 meters underwater.

Continue to swim down, with a high spotlight tied to the top of the head, illuminating the surroundings. When he dived to about 50 meters, Cui Jue stopped for a moment. This was the deepest the salvage personnel had ever dived. He felt his body and felt that the surrounding water was exerting pressure on him, but it was still within Cui Jue's tolerance.

Continue to dive down, the water pressure is getting bigger and bigger. I don't know how long I have been diving, or how deep I am, until Cui Jue saw a snakeskin bag similar to the one used to pick up garbage in front of him.

He swam over in a hurry, grabbed the bag and wanted to open it to take a look, but because of the water pressure, Cui Jue couldn't control his hands when he was underwater. There was no way. Finally, he spent a long time to open a gap. Looking inside, it was the familiar black plastic bag. Cui Jue thought that since he had found it, he should go back to the top to see what was inside.

Preparing to return, Cui Jue grabbed the bag and tried to swim back, but he felt a huge force coming from the bag, and no matter how hard he pulled, he couldn't move it at all. Cui Jue wanted to see what was wrong. He looked under the black bag with the high spotlight above his head, and saw a nylon rope fixing it and a piece of iron together.

It took Cui Jue a lot of effort to untie the wire from the snakeskin bag.

This time, Cui Jue didn't stop for a moment, and his feet quickly stepped on the water, swimming upward like an arrow from a string.

The people waiting in front saw that Cui Jue had been down for 20 minutes without any movement. Zhang Meng stood by the well and paced back and forth. Su Yu was no longer as calm as at the beginning, and lay at the mouth of the well and kept paying attention to the movement of the water.

If Cui Jue really had an accident down there, Su Yu would feel guilty for the rest of his life. After all, if he hadn't just agreed to let him go down, Cui Jue wouldn't have had anything.

Just when everyone was looking forward to Cui Jue's safe return.

Su Yu found that the safety rope beside him was making ripples on the water surface, and turned his head and shouted.

"Who is it? Didn't I say that no one can touch the safety rope?"
