Chapter 1 Mr. Diver

"Link! Link! Wake up!"

Link opened his eyes and took down the Playboy magazine covering his face. The bright sunshine of Miami hit his handsome face directly, making him squint his eyes involuntarily.

Next to him, the fat man James was wearing a large beach T-shirt and a Heat ball cap, looking thoughtfully at the sea in the distance.

"What happened?"

Link stretched out, took out a bottle of mineral water from the ice bucket, and drank half of the bottle in one breath.

"It's the girl named Taylor. It's been almost two hours since she entered the water and she still hasn't come out. She didn't bring an air pump. I'm worried that something will happen to her."

Fat James pointed to the sea in the distance and said.

This is the Baker diving equipment rental store in Miami, Florida, in the middle of Palm Bay's golden beach. Link is the store manager, and Fat James is his partner.

"She was gone for two hours? How did you know?"

Link asked, looking at the fat man in confusion.

This section is a public beach with clear water, moderate wind and waves, and a large coral reef offshore, which is very suitable for diving here, so many tourists come here every day to rent diving equipment.

During peak times, Baker's store can rent out more than ten units a day. It's May now, the peak season for beach vacations, and today the store rented out six units in one morning.

There are so many tourists entering the water that it is difficult to remember the time when each person entered the water.

Fatty James's face turned red when he saw him. He held up the brim of his hat and stammered: "I, I saw it, okay, I'll admit it. She is very beautiful, with blond hair and a great figure. She looks like a model. I noticed her when she entered the store."

Link chuckled lightly, it turned out that he was feeling spring. He yawned, lay down again and said, "Don't worry, tall people have good diving skills, nothing will happen to them."

"Go and have a look. If someone has an accident nearby, our store's business will also be affected. For the sake of dollar bills, go and have a look."

Fat James shook his shoulders, and his pitiful eyes made Link feel helpless. You let me go for love? You are such a dog.

But considering the business of the store, he took a few pieces of diving equipment from the store and took a speedboat to search for nearby shallow waters.

The seawater depth near the public beach is within 60 meters, the water flow is gentle, and the water quality is clear, which is more suitable for diving adventures. Tourists who come to Miami to play in the water will mostly choose this area, except for a few adventurous people.

Link drove the speedboat in a circle within 1-2 nautical miles offshore, observing the surrounding movements, and found a red headband 800 meters away from the coast, with a golden brown hair wrapped around the headband.

Link looked around and found no floating corpses or living people, so he couldn't tell where the girl was.

He could only go to the sea and have a look.

He is a time-traveler. After time-traveling, his physical strength, endurance, speed, and reaction ability are much higher than before. When diving in shallow water, he can swim very fast with only a few simple diving equipment.

At two or three o'clock in the afternoon, the surface temperature of the sea water is above 20°C, making it very comfortable to soak in the water.

Link dived ten meters below the sea surface. Through the light blue water, he could see the coral reefs on the seabed. Groups of colorful otter fish, scaled swordfish, and white-scaled fish shuttled among the corals.

The underwater world is novel and magnificent, which can stimulate people's desire to explore, but there are also many dangers hidden under the sea. Many coral reefs with spiny barbs, poisonous jellyfish, stinging fire coral bushes, etc. are all natural enemies of divers, and it is also easy to Where the unexpected happens.

Link circled around several dangerous areas. He didn't see any blood, and no one was trapped in the coral. The waters were calm and calm, so James' worries were unnecessary.

When they came out of the water, a young man wearing a Baker's diving suit stood beside the speedboat and said with a smile: "Hey, Mr. Baker, are you coming to dive too?"

"No, I'm here to find someone. A tall girl with blond hair. She's also wearing a Baker wetsuit. Did you see that?"

"I met one half an hour ago. She seemed to have gone over there. She swam very fast."

The patron said, pointing to a small island two or three nautical miles away.

"Got it, thank you!"

Saying goodbye to his customers, Link drove the speedboat towards the island.

The island is small in area, more than ten meters above the water, and only 500 meters wide at its widest point. It is shaped like a mango, with black rock walls and many short vegetation growing on it. Sometimes the island will be completely submerged when the tide rises.

Link drove the speedboat around the island and saw a tall girl on a flat black rock in the east.

The girl has wet hair, her wetsuit was taken off and placed on the reef. She is only wearing a spotted bikini. She has a figure of nearly 180 centimeters, with fair and clean skin. The figure has the slenderness of a girl, but also has the energy and sexiness of an adolescent girl, with a bud. To be released, there is indeed a lot to see.

The girl was sitting on the stone, her left calf was bleeding. She seemed to be about to take off her bra to bandage the wound. When she heard the sound of the speedboat engine, she put it on again.

"Hey, need some help?"

"Yes sir, my calf was cut by a stone and I need treatment."

The girl responded loudly.

Link drove the speedboat slowly towards the island, stopped at a rock, and called the girls on board.

When the girl got closer, he realized that she looked familiar, like the famous star Taylor Swift, with blue fox eyes and a few brown freckles next to the straight bridge of her nose, which made her look very green.

Thinking of the fat man James calling her Taylor, and thinking of the recent beach music festival held in Miami, it is very likely that the other party is Taylor.

However, it is 2008 now, Taylor has only been in the industry for two years, and is a country music singer. She is not very famous in the pop music industry, and Link can pretend not to know her.

"How did you get hurt?"

"It's so unlucky. I just scraped lightly on the coral reef, and my calf was scratched."

The girl hugged her fair and slender calf and complained at the three-centimeter-long, bleeding wound.

"Your diving suit is not strong enough, and it is not suitable for diving in areas with dense coral reefs."

Link glanced at the diving suit next to the girl. It was a nylon outer layer, which was more close-fitting, but the quality was worse than Lycra cloth, and the rental price was cheaper.

"I understand. When I rented the diving suit, the fat clerk told me that this suit was strong enough to cope with the situation in the nearby waters, but it was not strong at all. I'm going to trouble him."

"It's time to trouble him."

Link smiled lightly and mourned for the fat man for two seconds.

The speedboat stopped at the public dock. Fatty James ran over panting and asked attentively, "Miss Taylor, how did you get hurt?"

"You told me this diving suit was very strong, but I just touched the coral reef and it broke, and I also hurt my calf. How are you going to compensate me?"

The girl put her arms around her chest and asked the fat man with a red face.

Fatty James was sweating profusely and explained with gestures: "There are only four diving suits suitable for your body in our store. Three of them have been rented out, leaving only this one."

"Then you should tell me frankly, I can rent from other stores, there is more than one diving store here. Because of your deception, I can't participate in tomorrow's rehearsal, which has a very bad impact. How are you going to compensate me?"

The girl asked angrily.

"I, I"

The fat man took two steps back in fear. When he saw Link coming up with the diving equipment, he ran to Link's back as if he saw a savior, and shouted, "He is the boss, you ask him for compensation."

"You are the boss?"

Taylor turned his head in surprise and looked at the tall, handsome, but taciturn boy.

"Yes, my name is Link Baker, the owner of Baker Diving Shop. How about we go in and talk?"

Link chuckled.

Taylor was shaken by his bright smile and handsome face, and waved his hand and said, "Forget it, you helped me."

"You're welcome. There is a medicine box in the store. I will disinfect and bandage you first. The wound is not deep and it will heal in three or four days."

Link pointed to her calf.

"Okay, thank you."

Taylor held his arm, stepped on the soft white sand, and limped into Baker Diving Shop.
