After salvaging two torpedoes in succession, Boss Fu began to attribute all unusual occurrences at sea to enemy agents.
Upon hearing this, Fu Wan picked up the fake fish and ran towards the cockpit. Fang Min also stood up and followed with a serious expression.
"Father, where is that ship?"
Fu Wan squinted at the sea in front of her, but she could see nothing but the constantly rippling waves.
Boss Fu shoved the binoculars from the control panel into her hands, saying, "Over there, over there, look over there!"
The telescope was also a generous donation from Sun Shao-ping at the camp. This was also thanks to the canned fish that Fu Wan sent over. Sun Shao-ping felt embarrassed eating it, so he thought of having Bai Qian-zhou bring a telescope with him when he delivered the last radio.
Fu Wan forgot about that for a moment, picked up the binoculars and looked in the direction Fu Laoda pointed.
With the help of the telescope, she was able to see the small black dot more than ten nautical miles away.
It was a tin boat less than ten meters long, which looked like a fishing boat, but through binoculars, it was clear that there were no fishing nets on it.
This familiar yet eerie feeling instantly reminded Fu Wan of the ship that had launched torpedoes before.
"Ah Wan, let me see."
Fang Min's cool voice pulled Fu Wan back to reality, and she subconsciously handed over the binoculars.
Fang Min took the binoculars and looked into the distance with her good eye.
Her lips were pursed into a straight line, and she looked like a sharp blade about to be drawn, ready to go into battle at any moment.
"That's really strange, Wan. Where's our GPS device?"
Fu Wan pointed to the screen on the control panel and said, "These three red dots are our three ships. We are currently in this position."
Fang Min gestured with her hand and glanced at the coordinates on the control panel a few more times.
“We are still a long way from the high seas. If this ship really belongs to another country, then it has already crossed the line.”
Fang Min put down the binoculars, and Boss Fu scratched his head, guessing, "Could it be that we're being too sensitive?"
Judging from its appearance, the other party is indeed a fishing boat. If we're mistaken, a misunderstanding could damage our relationship.
Fu Wan shook her head upon hearing this, "Better safe than sorry, Dad. Have you forgotten that the ones who launched the torpedoes last time were also in fishing boats?"
Upon hearing this, Boss Fu immediately frowned again, "Then what do we do now?"
Fu Wan thought for a moment, "I'll try contacting the camp first."
As Qin Anning had told her before, their ship's radio could send signals to the camp. However, due to the encrypted connection, it might take a little longer.
Fu Wan recalled Qin Anning and Bai Qianzhou's previous actions and tried to send a signal to the camp.
Boss Fu picked up his binoculars to continue observing the ship's movements, but then he noticed something was wrong.
"Hey, why does that ship seem to be getting closer and closer to us?"
"show me."
Fu Wan picked up the binoculars. "No wonder he's getting closer and closer; he's driving right this way."
"Dad, quickly take the helm and accelerate; let's head in another direction."
After saying that, Fu Wan glanced at the coordinate instrument again. Fortunately, it showed that Fu Liang and Fu Ming's two ships were still far away from here.
When Fang Min mentioned the fake fish, Fu Wan and her gaze immediately fell on it as well.
Could that ship be heading towards this thing?
Fu Wan speculated in her mind and then observed the direction the ship was heading.
Boss Fu had already increased the speed of the boat, so their boat was not slow. Through the binoculars, Fu Wan could also see that the boat was heading towards the place where they had just caught yellow croaker.
"Beep beep beep beep..."
A burst of noise came from the radio station, and Fu Wan hurriedly picked up the walkie-talkie.
"Hello, this is Fu Wan. Is this the camp?"
However, apart from the intermittent crackling of electricity on the other end of the radio, Fu Wan could not hear anyone's voice.
"The signal is bad."
Fu Wan was somewhat discouraged. Fang Min squatted down in front of the radio and fiddled with it for a bit.
He then shook his head.
"It's probably too far away. I've used this kind of wireless equipment before. I just tried sending my location, but I don't know if they can receive it."
Fu Wan breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. Sending a location was fine; if the camp received it, they would at least come and take a look.
Even if the ship wasn't enemy territory, she still had the fake fish and those things under the bed that she needed to hand over.
Fu Laoda stared intently ahead, and soon he noticed that the boat was moving slower and slower.
I almost forgot, my boat is still trawling!
"Ah Wan, hurry up and get to the back to haul in the net. The boat is getting a bit sluggish!"
Upon hearing this, Fang Min ran out, and Ye Lin and Fu Shi, seeing this, also hurriedly turned on the network generator.
Once the trawl net was pulled up, the boat indeed sped up again.
Seeing the bulging net, Fu Wan understood why Boss Fu had struggled so much to steer the boat earlier.
"Quickly open it and see what kind of fish it is!"
Nothing is more important than catching fish yourself.
With so many people on her boat and having avoided that strange fishing vessel, she calmed down considerably.
Upon hearing this, Ye Lin quickly untied the net, and the falling fish excited everyone once again.
"There are some large yellow croakers, and quite a few golden threadfin bream and red sea bream. Wow, these must be spotted mackerel!"
Fu Shi counted all the valuable fish he saw, and then eagerly dragged over the basket to start picking them out.
Seeing that they were all picking out fish, Fu Wan thought for a moment and then turned back to the cockpit.
She picked up her binoculars and searched in the direction she had come from for several minutes before finally spotting the fishing boat not far away.
At this point, the two ships were less than five nautical miles apart. Not only could they see each other, but the other ship should also be aware of their presence.
The closer she got, the clearer she could see the scene on the ship.
Fu Wan counted about five people on the deck, including a middle-aged man with fair skin and blond hair who was talking to a black-haired man next to him.
Judging from his furious expression, it probably wasn't anything nice he said.
Looking at the boat again, there was a crumpled fishing net piled up in the corner, clearly not belonging to fishermen who went out to sea to catch fish.
After all, fishermen's nets are always neatly arranged, otherwise they wouldn't have time to untangle them if they encountered a school of fish.
However, there was another large object on the side, covered by a piece of black oil paper, so Fu Wan couldn't guess what it was.
As he steered the boat, Boss Fu turned to ask Fu Wan a question.
"How about we go for a spin around and head back now?"
Fu Wan hesitated, "The spoils on the ship were about the same. I just looked at that ship, and there were indeed a few foreigners on it."
Boss Fu frowned again. "Those foreign devils, I wonder what they're up to."
No sooner had he finished speaking than a horn blared from behind.
"Hey fishing boats ahead, stop! You've stolen something from us!"
Although he was speaking in Mandarin, the strange accent still made Fu Wan frown.
"Dad, you keep sailing, I'll go check the back."
"Okay, then you all take care."
Boss Fu immediately increased the speed of the boat again. Just as Fu Wan stepped onto the deck, she suddenly heard a few slapping sounds from behind.
Fang Min put down the fish and instinctively stood in front of Fu Qing.
"Get down, I'm armed!"
