Los Angeles Detective

It was a crocodile about fifteen feet long. Its olive-brown back and tail were covered with scales, and its sharp teeth were exposed. It was terrifying.

"Oh..." The huge crocodile roared and rushed towards Elsa Marin, who was leading the way.

Elsa Marin, Glasses Girl, and Lilith were all frightened by the giant beast that suddenly appeared, and turned around to run back, screaming, "Ah..."

The glasses girl was overly panicked, slipped and fell down.

Elsa Marin couldn't dodge, bumped into her, and fell too.

At this gap, the huge crocodile chased up, opened its huge mouth, and bit Elsa Marin's right leg.

Even Elsa Marin, who was used to seeing wild animals, was also frightened and panicked, waving the bright flashlight in her hand, as if trying to scare the crocodile away.

With a sharp pain on her right foot, Elsa Marin showed a look of despair on her face. She knew very well how powerful the crocodile's bite force is. If she can't hold on for a few seconds, her leg will break. If there is another When death rolls over, he will be dragged into the pool, leaving no bones left.

"Ah..." She cried out in despair.

"boom!"

A gunshot echoed in the cave.

Blood splattered everywhere.

"Aww..."

The huge crocodile opened its mouth and let out a painful roar, struggling and rolling over.

"boom!"

Another shot.

Blood spattered again.

The crocodile's struggle also became weaker, as if it had exhausted its strength, and the pool was stained red with crocodile blood.

"Plop..." Another huge figure emerged from the water, galloping towards it with four short legs stirring the water.

The three women looked terrified again, and Lilith and the glasses girl dragged the injured Elsa Marin to hide behind Luke.

However, this crocodile did not attack Luke and the others, but rushed towards his companion, biting the body of the injured crocodile, and then rolled over deadly, and the waves of the stirred pool splashed.

"Bang bang." Two more shots in a row, and Luke hit the second crocodile.

This cold-blooded animal even eats its own companions. Even if it doesn't attack the four of them this time, it is still a huge threat.

Luke uses a shotgun, which is powerful, so he can kill the crocodile. If he uses an ordinary pistol, it is difficult to pose a fatal threat to the crocodile. Instead, it may irritate the crocodile and make it even more crazy.

Two crocodiles stained the pool red.

Soon, a third crocodile came out of the pool, also ignoring Luke and the others, but choosing to bite the corpse of his companion.

"Bang bang." Two more shots, and the third crocodile was directly killed by Luke.

After a long time, the pool calmed down, and the three women relaxed.

Lilith took out the first aid kit, squatted beside Elsa Marin, and asked with concern, "How is your injury?"

Elsa Marin's face was pale, she didn't know whether she was frightened, or she lost too much blood, and her voice was hoarse, "My leg hurts, it should be injured, but luckily Luke shot in time, before the crocodile had time to bite hard, The injury is not serious."

"I'll help you heal." Lilith opened the first-aid kit, took out the scissors and cut off Elsa Marin's trouser legs, revealing the anti-snake leggings inside, "This is a good habit, and it relieved your injury. "

Even with the anti-snake leggings, Elsa Marin's leg was still injured. Although there was no tear, red and swollen indentations could be seen.

Of course, the most important thing is that Luke shoots in time, otherwise once the crocodile bites hard, the anti-snake leggings will not be able to prevent the huge bite force of the crocodile.

Elsa Marin showed a grateful look, "Luke, you saved my life, thank you very much.

I don't know how to express..."

Luke said, "We are a team and you are my partner.

Rest in peace. "

Lilith treated her wound briefly and said, "Although there is no obvious wound, the crocodile's bite is amazing. You'd better rest for a while."

Elsa Marin said, "I will rest when the treasure hunt is over, but not now, as long as you find me a crutch, I can continue to explore the cave with you."

The girl with glasses frowned and said, "Come on, you are not joking.

This cave is so dangerous, there may be crocodiles in front of it, should we continue to explore? "

"These three all belong to American crocodiles. They live in fresh water. It stands to reason that they shouldn't appear on this island. This is very abnormal." Lilith touched her clean chin and said, "I guess, these crocodiles are probably It was brought by the people who buried the treasures, and the purpose was to let them guard these treasures.

If my guess is correct, then the treasure is probably inside the cave. "

Luke filled the spare side magazine of the shotgun with bullets, "If you are afraid, you wait here, and I will go to explore ahead."

"No, absolutely not." Elsa Marin and the glasses girl said in unison.

Lilith said, "If you leave and another crocodile appears in the pool, we will have no choice but to run away."

Luke suggested, "Elsa is injured, I will send you out of the cave first, and then come in to explore the depths of the cave."

"No, my injury is not serious, and I can continue to explore the cave." After Elsa Marin finished speaking, she stood up while supporting the rock wall, and tried to walk a few steps forward. "It's not a big problem."

Lilith persuaded, "Don't hold on, it will make the injury worse."

Elsa Marin said disapprovingly, "I have been crawling and rolling in the wild since I was a child, and I would continue to run and play after falling from a tree. This kind of injury is nothing to me."

Now that Elsa Marin said so, Luke and Lilith stopped persuading them, and the four of them took a break and continued to explore the depths of the cave.

Walk forward for a few minutes, there is a fork in front, the fork on the left is connected to the pool, and the fork on the right is isolated from the pool.

The girl in glasses took a bright flashlight and took a photo at the fork on the right, "Let's go this way, we shouldn't encounter crocodiles."

Although Luke has the ability to kill the crocodile, the size of the water pool is variable. If the crocodile suddenly jumps over and bites, dragging people into the water pool, it is still very dangerous.

The four discussed it, and finally decided to take the fork on the right.

After walking for about a few minutes, another water pool appeared in front of them, and the road became narrower and narrower. Everyone became vigilant again, and strong flashlights shone on the water pool from time to time.

Fortunately, there was no danger along the way.

After walking forward for another ten minutes, the terrain became lower, and the road ahead was cut off by a pool of water, so we had to wade through the water to move on.

Looking at the deep and shallow pool, the four murmured again.

Lilith looked at Luke habitually, "What do you think?"

Luke glanced over the three women and landed on Elsa Marin. She was the closest to the crocodile just now. The shotgun hit the crocodile, and the blood spattered, and she had the most blood on her body.

Luke crouched down, cut a bloody strip of cloth from her trousers with the dagger, and threw it into the pool.

Not long after, the pool was churning, and several palm-sized fish swam towards the cloth strip, opening their mouths to reveal sharp teeth, biting the cloth strip, and the cloth strip was eaten in the blink of an eye.

Everyone was shocked by what happened just now.

Elsa Marin even exclaimed, "Piranha!

Fortunately, we didn't go into the water, otherwise, we would be bitten by piranhas if we were stained with crocodile blood, not to mention the meat, the bones would be bitten off.

These things are more ferocious and bloodthirsty than crocodiles. "

The water pool must not go down. Although the piranhas are small in size, they are in groups, and they can't kill them all.

The four could only turn around, return to the fork in the road, and walk along the water pool where the crocodile lives again.

"Bang bang!"

With two shots, Luke killed another crocodile that wanted to violently hurt people.

The rest went smoothly, and there was no crocodile in the water pool.

The four of them turned into a vast karst cave. The terrain here was relatively high, and the water surface receded a lot, revealing a platform the size of a basketball court.

At the top of the cave, there is a crack that is one foot wide and tens of feet long, which communicates with the outside world.

On the far right side of the cave, some palm-sized pebbles were piled up, blocking a fork.

Luke walked to the side of the fork to check, and it was obvious that the cobblestones were piled up artificially.

At Luke's suggestion, everyone pushed the cobblestones away with great care, fearing that any dangerous animals would appear inside.

A few minutes later, the crowd removed the cobblestones, revealing a four-foot-high and two-foot-wide hole. A strong flashlight shined inside, and it was a bit empty. The area inside the hole was larger than imagined.

Holding guns in both hands, Luke was the first to enter the cave with a short body. He scanned the surroundings with his headlights, and was immediately shocked by the sight in front of him.

The hole was like a curved crescent, and inside were twelve boxes, each two feet long, a foot wide, and a foot high.

The box was made of wood, waterproof, and the box was still locked. Luke tried to move it. The box was not big, but it was heavy.

The other three also entered the cave entrance one after another.

The glasses girl was pleasantly surprised, "Are these boxes containing treasures?"

Elsa Marin also looked excited, and limped to the box to check, "There is a box here that is not locked."

Everyone gathered around, and under Luke's signal, Elsa Marin opened the lid of the box, and there were neatly stacked silver bricks inside, all the size of a palm, exactly the same as the silver brick found before.

The glasses girl jumped up excitedly, "Yeah, it's really a treasure."

Elsa Marin stroked the silver ingot in the box and said tremblingly, "It's incredible, I actually found it."

A smug look appeared on Lilith's pretty face, and she returned to her former arrogance, crossing her arms with her arms across her chest, "Don't get too excited, open all the boxes, if they are all silver ingots, they won't be worth much."

Luke picked up the engineer shovel and knocked off the lock on the box.

"Clang clang..."

The locks were rusted and easily knocked off.

The glasses girl couldn't wait to open the box, "Silver, silver, silver, and silver again..."

The glasses girl rubbed her hands, took a deep breath, and continued to open the box, "Silver, gold jewelry, gold bricks, gold bricks, gold bricks, we're getting rich!"

There were twelve chests in all, six chests of silver bricks, three chests of gold bricks, one chest of gold ornaments, and two chests of pottery.

The glasses girl asked with trembling voice, "How much are these things worth?"

Luke roughly estimated the weight of the gold bricks, and said, "Even if these golds are sold at the gold price, they can be worth tens of millions of dollars. These silver bricks are not worth much, less than one percent of the gold price. As for the pottery, I don't know much about it." .”

The girl with glasses lowered her head and pinched her trembling fingers, not knowing what she was doing.

Elsa Marin sat on the ground, her body leaning against the box, and she didn't know whether her legs were weak or her legs hurt.

Lilith's face was also full of joy. What she was most interested in was not the gold bricks, but the box of pottery. She took out a pottery mask and played with it carefully.

This time, Luke was able to find the treasure smoothly. Luke was pleasantly surprised, but also somewhat unexpected. Although this was not the first time he found the treasure, the value of the treasure this time was much higher than before.

Lilith put the pot back into the box and said, "Guys, I don't like this cave as much as you do, so, shall we first find a way to transport the treasure back to the yacht."

Elsa Marin said, "These twelve boxes add up to thousands of pounds, and the roads on the island are not easy to walk. It is indeed a problem to transport these treasures back to the yacht.

And it's already afternoon, and even if we don't return to the yacht with the treasure, it's getting dark.

We are not familiar with the situation of the island, if we move the treasure at night, it may be dangerous. "

Lilith said, "You're right, we can't take all the treasures away, but we can take some of them first.

The pottery in these boxes is the lightest, and it can be carried back directly, which will not burden us too much. "

Lilith looked at Luke again, "What do you think?"

Seeing that Lilith valued those clay pots so much, Luke couldn't help being a little curious. However, in front of the glasses girl and Elsa Marin, he didn't ask too many questions, and said, "I have no objection."

"OK, let's do that."

There are two boxes for pottery, but because it is the first time to land on the island, they carry a lot of equipment, which is already very heavy, so they can't carry too many things.

Lilith took out the pottery from one of the boxes, and put it into three backpacks to prevent the pots from colliding with each other.

Afterwards, the four of them prepared to leave the cave.

The glasses girl glanced at the box containing the gold nuggets with some reluctance, "Can I take one away first?"

Lilith said indifferently, "Of course, as long as you are not afraid of being tired."

"No, I feel full of strength now." The glasses girl ran back to the box containing the gold nuggets, took out a gold brick with both hands, and put it in the side bag, "God, I like this heavy feeling, it feels like So happy."

Lilith shook her head, "It's too early for you to say this now, we still have to go through a rugged rainforest."

After finding the treasure, the atmosphere on the way back was much more relaxed.

Next to the corpse of the crocodile that was killed, another American crocodile appeared, biting the corpse of its companion.

Everyone no longer had the fear they had before, and they all looked at Luke in unison.

Luke took out the shotgun, "Leave first, I don't want to splash your blood."

Lilith cared, "Be careful."

After finishing speaking, the three women left the cave quickly, as if they didn't want to see the bloody scene again.

"Bang bang."

Luke fired two shots at the pool. I don't know if it was because of his exhaustion. His marksmanship was a bit poor. He only hit the tail of the crocodile. The painful crocodile rolled in the pool, but the injury was not serious.

Luke didn't shoot again, turned and left the cave.

Luke, Lilith and others meet outside the cave.

Lilith said, "We discussed it just now. Although yachts can be docked on the north coast, the road in the rainforest is more difficult. It is more difficult to carry thousands of pounds of treasure through the rainforest, so we plan to continue exploring to the south coast of the island.

If the road on the south coast of the island is easy to go, the treasure will be transported from the south coast to the south coast and transported to the yacht by kayak.

what do you think? "

"Let's go."

Afterwards, a group of people explored to the south side of the island, but after walking not far, they returned.

Because the road on the south bank is very rough and muddy, in some places you can even sink your foot into the mud.

Everyone can only walk through the tropical rainforest along the original road and return to the north shore of the island.

After returning to the yacht, everyone had a simple dinner and rested.

Although the treasure has been found, most of it has not been transported back to the yacht, which is not suitable for celebration.

In addition, after traveling all day today, the four of them were really tired.

The night was overcast, the light was very dim, and it seemed that it might rain at any time.

It's two o'clock in the morning.

A figure appeared outside the yacht cab. After looking around, he entered the cab and picked up the maritime satellite phone...
