A woman claiming to be A-Ning approached Wu Xie, telling him she belonged to a shipwreck salvage company. She explained that while exploring a Seafloor Tomb with Wu Sansheng, Wu Sansheng had become trapped inside. Unable to reach Panzi, Wu Xie had no choice but to board a flight to the South China Sea alone with the woman.
They rented a fishing boat. Once aboard, A-Ning handed him a list of equipment. Wu Xie couldn't make head or tail of the stuff, glanced over it perfunctorily, and handed it back to her.
To Wu Xie's surprise, there was also a short-haired black kid on board. His Mandarin wasn't very good, and after chatting with him for a long time, Wu Xie only managed to figure out that his name was Mel Vigan.
