Chapter 97: Taking the bait (1)

Translator: 549690339

Although it was not rare for schools of fish to appear, and it was also common for them to bite the bait one after another, they had not been able to catch anything before this. Now, all of them had caught something. Thinking back to what Xue Li had said a few days ago, that Mr. Zhou would arrive at the island in three days according to the voyage, it seemed a little strange.

The fishing line swayed as it fell, and then it began to shake violently.

There were fish in the sea pulling on the fishing line, and the fishing rod was bent very quickly. Song qingxiao didn’t have time to put down the lunch box in her hand, and the fishing rod seemed to be breaking under the struggling of the fish.

The sound of waves splashing came from the surface of the water, and a fish jumped out of the water.

There was a ’Dong Dong Dong’ sound coming from the bottom of the side of the ship, as if many people were chiseling the ship with hammers. It was so loud that even Mr. Zhou and the others in the cabin couldn’t help coming out of the cabin.

The fishing rod couldn’t stand the pull of gravity, and it made a ‘Ga Ga’ sound, as if it was about to break.

Because the ship was going out to sea, the quality of the fishing rods equipped on the ship was not bad, but at this time, they seemed to be unable to bear the load. The fishing line was very tight, and the fishing rod that first bit the bait seemed to finally be unable to hold on after No. 7’s voice fell. The line snapped with a ‘pa’ sound, and the fishing rod bounced back with a ’whoosh’, still shaking.

“This…”

All of this happened in a very short time, leaving everyone dumbfounded.

Other than the trial-takers, the other hired people on the ship had more or less experience living by the sea and were familiar with the water. When they saw this scene, someone who had just taken a bite of rice forgot to swallow it and mumbled,”

“What kind of fish is this? it’s so fierce.”

Song qingxiao put down her lunchbox decisively and rushed to the side of the boat. There were waves splashing on the water, and the bottom of the sea was dark. On closer look, it was a school of fish floating in the sea. The school was so dense that it seemed like there was no end to it.

No. 7 and the others saw her actions and looked at each other. They put down the lunch boxes in their hands and rushed over. They imitated song Qing and leaned on the side of the ship to look.

At this time, except for the fishing rod with the broken line, there were still fish biting the bait in the other fishing rods, and they were extremely fierce. They bit the bait and did not open their mouths.

Song qingxiao first changed the fishing line from an electric wire reel to a manual reel. As soon as she put it in her hand, the reel began to spin.

The fish under the boat were extremely strong, and it seemed that more than one fish had taken the bait. Her heart sank, and she used her hand to stabilize the situation before she began to reel in the line.

The fishing rod was bending more and more, and the line was getting shorter and shorter. The knocking sounds under the boat were getting heavier and more frequent. The boat was shaking slightly. Everyone was dumbfounded and speechless.

Everyone’s mood was like a tightened fish line. Just as they were feeling tense, Mr. Zhou’s unhappy voice suddenly came from behind them.

“What’s going on?”

Everyone’s attention was originally focused on the side of the ship. When they suddenly heard the sound, they were all shocked. Other than the trial-takers, the other hired ones subconsciously turned their heads. Song qingxiao and the other trial-takers were still frowning as they stared at the sea.

Being ignored like this, Mr. Zhou was unhappy. He raised his voice and asked again,

“What’s going on?”

When he spoke, his voice was filled with anger. At the same time, the strong men who had been following him with guns also lined up.

At the same time, after the third fish line was pulled taut, it broke with a ’whoosh’. Under the effect of the force, the fish line just happened to snap back in the direction where the man in a suit was standing. He instinctively reached out to cover his face, but in the next second, there was a splash, and something as thick as a wrist broke out of the water with the fish line in its mouth. It rushed straight to the side of the ship like an arrow.

This thing came like lightning and had great strength. It jumped nearly two meters out of the water and headed straight for the side of the ship. Song Qing clearly underestimated it. It had jumped so high, but a part of its body was still in the water.

After it jumped up, it shortened the distance between the fishing line and it, and the bent fishing rod bounced back to its original place with a ‘woosh’, buzzing and shaking.

In a split second, it rushed toward number seven. Number seven was shocked when he saw the fish and tried to Dodge it. Song qingxiao shouted,”

“Don’t Dodge! Leave it here.”

Hearing her words, number seven did not hesitate to reach out when Yu Fei came up. She did not hold the fish back as song qingxiao had imagined.

Instead, she waved her hand and tried to push the fish in song qingxiao’s direction..
