Chapter 476 The Fish is Poisonous
The ship was shaking so violently that Xia Xiaoman was worried that the crew would be thrown off the boat, so she asked everyone to tie up with safety ropes.
The safety rope is connected to the deck, and as long as the deck is not torn off, the crew will not be thrown out of the ship unless the ship capsizes.
Xia Xiaoman tied the safety rope and went out with the explosive grenade. Maodan saw her going out and wanted to follow her. It couldn't help much, so Xia Xiaoman didn't let it go and told it to stay in the cabin.
I ran out of the cabin, and the boat was hit by the fish tail again. Fortunately, there were many hills under the water, and the hills supported the boat, so it didn't flip over.
Xia Xiaoman stumbled to the side of the boat, holding the guardrail tightly with one hand, took out the grenade with the other hand, pulled out the pin with his mouth and threw it into the water. The other crew members did the same. They couldn't see where the big fish was under the water, so they threw bombs and grenades into the water based on their feelings.
There were explosions and water splashed around the ship. Xia Xiaoman and the others didn't know if they had hit any big fish, but the ship was not hit again. Seeing this, Sun Qing in the cockpit immediately sped up and drove forward.
Although there was no sign of the big fish, Xia Xiaoman still threw bombs into the water.
The monster dived into the water and wanted to rush up and hit the ship again, but was forced back by countless bombs. But the big fish did not give up and dived into the water to follow the ship not far away.
After five full minutes, there was no sign of the monster, so Xia Xiaoman asked the crew to stop bombing and stay by the ship.
Not long after the bombing stopped, a huge black shadow slowly emerged from the bottom of the water, and Xia Xiaoman immediately ordered to drop bombs.
…
Xia Xiaoman and his crew fought with this underwater monster for two days and two nights, and used nearly two-thirds of the guns and ammunition they had prepared before setting out, before they finally got rid of this big fish.
When the big fish saw Xia Xiaoman and the others swimming to the waters where leeches lived, it shook its tail unwillingly, turned around and slowly swam back to its own territory.
After getting rid of the big fish, Xia Xiaoman and his companions did not have time to catch their breath, and they immediately boiled water to deal with the leeches that had climbed onto the boat. It was not until they left the leech area that Xia Xiaoman and his companions completely relaxed.
"I'm so tired. I haven't felt this tired in a long time. I'm tired, hungry and sleepy." Li Yu'e slumped in the chair.
Xiao Zheyu shouted towards the kitchen: "Is the meal ready? I'm starving!"
"Here it is, the dishes are ready. The meal will be ready in a few minutes. Eat some first to fill your stomach. The meal will be ready soon." Wang Yiyong came up with two plates of fried small crucian carp.
When Xiao Zheyu smelled the food, his stomach started to growl. Without even having time to pick up the chopsticks, he directly picked up a small crucian carp and put it into his mouth.
Just as he put the fish into his mouth, Maodan suddenly jumped up and kicked him in the back, knocking Xiao Zheyu to the ground, and the fish in his mouth fell out.
Xiao Zheyu wanted to cry but had no tears. "Brother Dan, what are you doing? Such a good fish is wasted like this, and I haven't even tasted it yet."
"Awoo! Awoo! Awoo!" Idiot, there's something wrong with this fish. You'll die if you taste it!
Seeing Maodan so excited, Xia Xiaoman picked up a fish and smelled it, but didn't smell anything strange. "Luo Menglin, take a look at this fish and see if there's anything wrong with it." She handed the fish to Luo Menglin.
Luo Menglin sniffed it and didn't smell anything strange. She opened the fish and took a look. The fish was fried crispy, even the bones were fried through, and there was nothing unusual about it.
After thinking for a while, she broke the fish into pieces and caught two live crucian carps to feed them. After the crucian carps ate, they became motionless after a while. She fished the fish out and found that they were still alive, but unconscious. After a few minutes, the two crucian carps finally died.
Luo Menglin speculated: "These fish should be filled with snow rat venom. After eating, the limbs and brain will be paralyzed, and the person will fall into a coma. After a period of time, the heart will stop suddenly, leading to death."
When Xiao Zheyu heard this, he was so angry that his eyes turned red. "Damn Wang Yiyong, when he chose Dr. Luo as his opponent, I knew he was not a good person. He actually dared to poison the food! I'm going to kill him now!"
"Wait!" Xia Xiaoman said, "Bring two more people, arrest Lu Zhiqiang and Fang Shaowen, and bring Chen Peiqiong over as well."
Wang Shijin, who was standing by, heard this and said, "Do you suspect Chen Peiqiong is involved?"
Xia Xiaoman rolled her eyes at him and said, "Chen Peiqiong has been in the kitchen. I wanted to ask her if she saw who poisoned her."
Knowing that he had misunderstood, Wang Shijin laughed awkwardly and stopped talking nonsense.
After a while, Lu Zhiqiang and the other two were tied up by Xiao Zheyu, and Chen Peiqiong followed them.
Wang Yiyong was a little confused after being caught, "Isn't it just that the meal will be served later? Why did you tie us up?"
Xiao Zheyu kicked him and said, "What a stupid meal! The fish was drugged. You want us to be the last one to die!"
"Drug?!" Wang Yiyong was even more confused. "What drug? Who drugged me?"
Xiao Zheyu kicked him again, "Still pretending to be so. The fish you served was poisoned with snow rat venom. Who do you think put the poison in it?"
Wang Yiyong realized what was going on and shouted, "I didn't drug anyone. I served the food, but I didn't cook it! I have no grudge against you, why would you drug anyone?"
"The dish was not cooked by you? Then who cooked it?" Xiao Zheyu asked.
Wang Yiyong turned his head to look at Fang Shaowen, "The dish was made by Fang Shaowen, and he was the one who drugged it. I was just a waiter, it has nothing to do with me!"
"You're talking nonsense!" Fang Shaowen spat at him, "Who drugged me? I cook very cleanly, I definitely didn't drug you! If I did drug you, you would have been poisoned to death when you ate it just now, and you're still accusing me here!"
Wang Yiyong blushed when he was suddenly exposed for cheating. "If it's not you, then it must be Lu Zhiqiang. Yes, it's him. He must have drugged me!"
Lu Zhiqiang rolled his eyes. "When Fang Shaowen was frying the fish, I was washing the vegetables. When the fried fish was served, I was washing the dishes. How could I have the time to drug someone? Can you please use your brain when you wrongly accuse someone?"
Wang Yiyong was speechless. Seeing that everyone around him was looking at him with suspicion, Wang Yiyong suddenly felt that he was more wronged than Dou E.
"It really wasn't me. Can you believe me? I prefer to be lazy and eat delicious food, but I won't hurt anyone."
Suddenly he remembered something and looked up at Chen Peiqiong, "I know who drugged me, it's her, Chen Peiqiong!"
"When I brought out the fish, Chen Peiqiong said that the fish I put in was in a mess and took up too much space on the plate, so she used chopsticks to rearrange the plate for me. Originally there were three plates of fish, but she arranged them into two plates, and she touched each piece of fish with her chopsticks."
"The pair of chopsticks she used to set the dish must have been dipped in snow rat venom! That's right, she must have poisoned it!"
