Chapter 938 It Works
Ye Wanxi's words were not unfounded. Because of this incident, she had recently looked up a lot of related news reports.
I saw many shocking things and learned a lot about them.
Ye Wanxi was most impressed by what Xiao Baihui had just mentioned.
This is because this place not only discharges large amounts of sewage and garbage into the sea, but also throws dangerous substances that can promote biological mutations into the sea.
The mutated, deformed giant octopus that netizens mentioned earlier came from them, and therefore, they will definitely become the focus of the contract.
Ye Wanxi noticed Xiao Baihui's confusion but didn't explain further, only offering a suggestion: "Try to delay as much as possible."
"drag?"
"Just because someone randomly labels us, does that mean we have to accept it?"
"That's impossible, of course."
"Since that's the case, what can they do to us if we don't recognize them? Just let them drag it out. In half a month, no, not even half a month, they'll back down on their own."
Xiao Baihui didn't understand why Ye Wanxi was so sure, but thinking about everything that had happened before, and how it was thanks to her and Feng Tianyu that the matter was resolved without causing any further casualties.
After hesitating for a long time, Xiao Baihui decided to trust her this time.
"Okay, I will convey your words to them. Also, regarding this contract, Miss Ye, what are your plans? When will you begin processing it?"
When Ye Wanxi heard him ask this, she smiled and said, "You mean the contract? It has already begun to take effect."
"What?!"
Yao Xiuting is a 15-year-old girl about to enter high school. In the year she graduated, after finishing her high school entrance exam and confirming that she could enter her desired high school, she went on vacation to the seaside with her parents, along with her aunt's family who lived by the sea.
Yao Xiuting played wildly at the beach for more than half a month, and finally, urged by her parents, she reluctantly left this beautiful place.
The night before they left, Yao Xiuting suggested having a beach barbecue.
The aunt's family, being guests, naturally had no objections. Yao Xiuting's parents, who loved their daughter dearly, agreed despite feeling it was a bit of a hassle for them.
The barbecue was quite lively and enjoyable. In addition to all kinds of delicious skewers, Yao Xiuting also went out and bought several large bottles of fruit juice.
We had a great time eating, but cleaning up was a bit of a hassle.
Impatient with all this, Yao Xiuting took advantage of the elders' inattention and threw the juice bottles and skewers she had bought onto the sand and rocks on the beach where no one could see them before preparing to go back.
Her three-year-old brother, who had come out with her to throw away the trash, saw this and tried to stop her, but instead made Yao Xiuting a little unhappy.
"What's wrong with throwing things here? It's so late, who will notice me throwing things here? Besides, I'm not the only one throwing things here. Look how much stuff has been thrown behind that pile of stones. If others can throw things here, why can't I? The trash can is so far away. Carrying all this trash over there is exhausting. Hurry up and finish throwing things away and go back. Don't cause me any trouble."
Her younger cousin was furious and anxious after being scolded like that, and burst into tears.
Yao Xiuting grew increasingly impatient with his crying and pulled her cousin away.
When they got back, his aunt and the others asked his cousin why he was crying, but the child was too young to explain clearly, so the adults didn't think much of it and just assumed that the child was fussy because it was too late. So they took the child back home.
Yao Xiuting was exhausted after a busy night. Knowing she had to leave the place the next morning, she quickly washed up and fell asleep after returning to the hotel.
But her sleep brought her great suffering. In her dream, Yao Xiuting transformed into a baby turtle, carrying her tiny shell as she swam joyfully and leisurely in the vast ocean.
However, the good times didn't last long. One day, a large amount of marine debris drifted in from somewhere, polluting the waters where the little turtle lived. Not only that, one of the plastic rings, which looked a bit like the closure of a juice bottle, accurately slipped onto the turtle's shell as it swam.
The little turtle, who spends its days in the ocean, has no idea of the danger lurking in the plastic ring. As the turtle grows, the plastic ring on its shell remains firmly in place, becoming a terrible burden that the little turtle cannot bear.
Its shell was deformed by the plastic ring, and its increasingly large body was squeezed into a ball under the pressure of the plastic ring.
It had to endure the pain of its internal organs being squeezed every moment, which drove it almost to madness.
It had even forgotten how long this torment had lasted, until one day, it dragged its aching body out to forage for food, and in its dazed state, it seemed to smell a familiar fragrance.
It instinctively opened its mouth and put the thing in its mouth, only to find that it was a sharp barbecue skewer.
The sharp tip went into its mouth, piercing its mouth and throat.
It writhed and struggled in pain, but the deeper the skewer pierced it, the more painful it became.
And so it lingered on for who knows how long, until finally, with its body aching all over, it breathed its last, as if relieved.
The moment the little turtle breathed its last, Yao Xiuting abruptly opened her eyes, clutching her neck tightly and gasping for breath.
The sharp pain of the skewer piercing her throat still seemed to linger in her neck, making her feel that every breath she took carried a strong, metallic taste of blood.
The dull pain of her internal organs being squeezed together seemed to still linger in her chest, making her feel suffocated involuntarily.
It took her a few minutes to calm her breathing, her wide eyes fixed on the hotel roof.
After a long while, she seemed to wake up from a dream, and frantically got out of bed and ran out of the room.
Her parents were awakened by her commotion. When they opened their eyes, they saw her running desperately towards the outside. They were all startled and quickly followed after her.
Yao Xiuting ran wildly towards the place where she had thrown away the trash the night before.
Unfortunately, as the tide rose and fell overnight, the spot where she had thrown away her trash was washed away by the surging sea, and all the trash she had placed there was swept into the vast ocean.
Yao Xiuting looked at the empty space behind the pile of stones, her face turned pale, and she suddenly knelt down and burst into tears.
When Yao Xiuting's parents saw that their daughter was not sleeping in the middle of the night and suddenly ran to the beach, they thought that she had suddenly suffered some kind of shock and wanted to commit suicide. They were so scared that their legs went weak.
Seeing her kneeling on the beach and crying loudly again, he was even more confused and bewildered.
But they didn't dare leave easily at this moment. They could only squat down, hug their daughter, and comfort her until she calmed down before asking her what happened.
