Feng Ye just wanted to save someone who had fallen into the sea, but he didn't expect to drag himself down with them, returning to 1990.
He also wanted to do business with the Russians, t...
"It's okay, I'm not going to touch it, I'll just look at it. Is it going to get shy and explode on its own?"
Feng Ye's words made everyone laugh, and the tense atmosphere on the ship eased a little.
"That's true. She's not a young girl. It won't hurt to look at her."
"Well, if you just look at it and don't touch it, it should be fine."
“I’ll go take a look. If I’m going to die, I’ll die no matter where I hide. I might as well take a good look at what a torpedo looks like before I die. I’ve never seen one before.”
"That makes sense. I'll go take a look too."
"Damn it, when people die, birds fly to the sky; if they don't die, they live for ten thousand years. What's there to be afraid of? I'll go take a look too."
"If this really explodes, all the birds will be gone, what's the point of them pointing upwards..."
The crowd burst into laughter again, and their tension and fear dissipated considerably.
Everyone stepped forward and gathered around the cylinder, chattering amongst themselves.
"This thing really looks like a torpedo from a movie. I wonder which country it's from."
"Isn't there some kind of foreign typography on this? Does anyone know what it says?"
Ah-Can stopped the boat and heard this as soon as he got off. He immediately rolled his eyes: "Isn't that obvious? None of us would recognize this thing."
He would like to get to know them, but unfortunately he doesn't have the ability.
"Didn't you guys go to junior high school? I thought you knew each other."
"I know nothing about it, I've forgotten everything I learned."
Feng Ye scoffed, "I think you didn't just forget it all, you never really learned it in the first place, did you?"
"Big brother, don't talk about second brother. It's like you know him."
Ah-chan retorted directly.
"I don't know him, but..."
Feng Ye smiled. "However, I can roughly guess which country it is."
"Oh, where are you from?"
"Who else could it be but the Americans? Besides them, who else would like to throw all this junk into the ocean?"
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement, agreeing that Feng Ye's words made sense.
After all, the United States' military dominance is known to the whole world.
It's perfectly normal for them to drop some detection equipment into the sea or carry out other military operations.
Anyway, it's in the ocean, so no one will know.
"If you didn't know it was a torpedo, it wouldn't look that scary; it's just a lump of iron."
"I can't believe that such a thin, long thing, like a large bamboo tube, could be so powerful as to blow up a ship."
"Yes, it would be best if, as A-Ye said, it wasn't a torpedo, but some kind of sonar or something, then there wouldn't be any danger."
"Whatever it is, as long as we don't touch it, we should be fine..."
As they talked, their fear gradually subsided.
Everyone relaxed, their eyes filled with curiosity as they examined the yellow cylinder.
"Brother Ye, what should we do with this thing? We can't just leave it on the boat forever, can we?"
Ah-Can scratched his head and looked at Feng Ye, asking a question.
"So, according to you, we don't want this ship anymore? Of course not!"
Feng Ye shook his head. "I plan to take it back and hand it over to the authorities."
Whether it's a torpedo, sonar, or unmanned underwater vehicle, it's best to leave it to professionals to handle.
Moreover, there might be some high-tech technology inside that could be useful to the country.
Besides, even if you threw it into the sea, wouldn't everyone be too afraid to do it?
Upon hearing this, everyone agreed that Feng Ye's words made sense and nodded in agreement.
"Yes, it's safest to leave it to the authorities."
"We dare not move. If we touch something we shouldn't, 'bang,' it will explode, and we'll have nowhere to cry."
"It's not that there's nowhere to cry, it's that there's no time to cry before a person is torn to pieces and gone."
"Alright, alright, stop making a fuss. Take a look and see if there's anything you need to pack so we can move it all over when the Harvest arrives."
Feng Ye interrupted the discussion and ordered everyone to get to work.
Pack up what needs to be packed up, and prepare what needs to be prepared.
However, everyone shook their heads, indicating that there was nothing to pack.
Anyway, the Harvest ship will be returning this afternoon, so there's no need to pack anything now; we can pack it on the way home tomorrow.
The group continued to squat on the deck, pointing at the cylinder and chatting and laughing.
It wasn't until Xiao Zhaojun arrived in the Harvest that everyone stood up and helped to join the two boats together.
The people on board the Harvest stood on the ship's side, craning their necks curiously to look at the cylindrical object that looked like a torpedo among the pile of fish.
Xiao Guowen's eyes widened in disbelief: "This...this is a torpedo? Good heavens, I'm finally seeing the real thing today."
"It could be a torpedo, or it could be a spy device such as sonar or an unmanned underwater vehicle."
Feng Ye reiterated his guess once again.
"Never mind whether it is or not, just don't touch it. What if it really is a torpedo and explodes?"
Xiao Zhaojun appeared on the platform outside the driver's cab and shouted with a serious expression.
"We didn't touch it, we just left it there until we reached the shore and handed it over to the authorities."
"Should we tow it back? Wouldn't that be dangerous? Or should we leave the ship here, and all of you come aboard the Harvest, keep a distance and watch from there, and call the patrolling coast guard to handle it?"
"It's not impossible."
Feng Ye nodded slightly, feeling that Xiao Zhaojun's suggestion made some sense.
But he immediately shook his head: "The problem is that we don't know when the patrol boats will pass by, which is a waste of time."
