Feng Ye followed closely behind and ran over quickly.
Just as they got close, a wave receded, revealing the man's hand that had been in the water.
He then saw that one end of the cage had been stuffed into a net bag, and the contents of the cage were being shaken into the net bag.
Damn it, they really are stealing!
Does this mean they don't exist?
How dare they provoke the Grand Duke Jupiter?
Feng Ye instantly flew into a rage, shouting, "What are you doing?"
The man was startled by the sudden sound, and sat up abruptly, a look of panic flashing across his face.
But he quickly calmed down and pretended to be nonchalant.
"Fuck you, still pretending?"
At that moment, Ah-Can, who had already rushed forward, roared and kicked the man in the buttocks.
The man was suddenly kicked and fell forward, plunging headfirst into the seawater.
When he finally got up, he was covered in sweat and had swallowed a mouthful of seawater.
Why are you hitting me?
The man coughed as he glared at Ah-Can and loudly questioned him.
This is a middle-aged man around 50 years old with an ordinary-looking face.
This person is also from their village, but it seems they are not from the same village group.
"Why are you hitting me? You're asking me what I'm doing?"
Ah-Can's eyes widened in anger as he pointed at the man and said, "You're stealing our goods, so what if I hit you?"
At this moment, Feng Ye also walked over, glaring angrily at the middle-aged man.
"Damn it, don't you even know where you are? Our house is right next door, and you still dare to steal our traps? You're asking for it, aren't you?"
"Who said I was stealing your fish traps? I was just picking up fish that had been washed ashore by the waves, and I just happened to pick them up next to your fish traps."
The middle-aged man, however, refused to admit it.
He didn't dare admit it either.
"Damn it, still trying to argue..."
Feng Ye was also furious and threw a punch.
Seeing that things were going badly, the middle-aged man turned and tried to run away.
But the seawater is so deep, how could they possibly run away?
Moreover, Ah-Can had anticipated this move and grabbed his collar.
"Trying to run? Not so easy!"
Ah-chan roared angrily and slapped him across the face with his other hand.
The middle-aged man cried out in pain, and seeing Feng Ye's fist coming at him again, he quickly said, "Ah Ye, don't hit me, we're relatives, we're family..."
"Who the hell is related to you? Don't try that on me, I don't know you."
Feng Ye didn't buy it at all and punched him on the head.
The middle-aged man was so badly beaten that his vision went black and he almost fainted.
He covered his head, looking miserable, and said, "We really are relatives. You have to call me uncle. If you don't believe me, ask your brother. He definitely knows me."
Upon hearing this, Feng Ye paused, stopped what he was doing, and frowned as he looked at the middle-aged man.
Ah-chan was even more annoyed at this point.
"Damn it, stealing from relatives is even more deserving of a beating..."
As he spoke, he slapped himself twice more across the face.
The middle-aged man, whose mouth was bleeding from the beating, hurriedly called out to Feng Xuan, who arrived late, "Xuan, I'm your uncle, do you remember me?"
Feng Xuan had actually recognized him a long time ago, but he hadn't said a word.
Only then did he slowly say, "He is my great-aunt's youngest son, so we should indeed call him cousin."
Feng Ye racked his brains for a moment before remembering which great-aunt he was.
This great-aunt was really unlucky; she passed away very early, when he was only 7 years old.
More importantly, the two families lost contact only a few years after my great-aunt passed away.
Therefore, he had no memory of his great-aunt and her children.
And thinking about this made him even angrier.
Back then, his grandparents were still alive.
I don't know what these great-aunt's children are thinking. Their uncle and aunt are still alive, yet they've cut off all contact with them. Calling them ungrateful wretches wouldn't be an exaggeration.
Feng Ye coldly looked at the middle-aged man: "Now you remember we're relatives? What were you doing before?"
"What? He really is your uncle?"
At the same time, Ah-Can looked at the two brothers with a look of astonishment on his face.
If they were really relatives, what kind of situation is this?
Feng Ye said irritably, "What kind of uncle is he? Ever since my great-aunt passed away, he hasn't had any contact with our family, so we don't need to acknowledge him."
It's better to disown such relatives.
"Damn, I thought they were really relatives, I'm almost embarrassed..."
Ah-Can pulled the middle-aged man over and slapped him twice more.
The commotion naturally attracted the attention of the people on the beach, and many ran over to see what was going on.
"What's going on? Why is someone being hit?"
"It seems like Xu Laosi stole the goods from their trap?"
"Ah, stealing, he deserves to be beaten."
"Exactly, there were so many on the beach just now, everyone must have picked up hundreds of pounds of them, why would anyone steal them?"
"What else can they do? They're just jealous. They see others getting more goods and feel resentful."
"Tsk tsk, Xu Laosi and Feng Laosan are actually relatives, yet they still went so far as to steal from them. What kind of people are they?"
"People like this exist everywhere, it's nothing special..."
The crowd chimed in with their own comments, all of which were accusations and mockery directed at the middle-aged man.
Surrounded by so many people pointing and whispering, Xu Laosi lost all face and dignity.
He was so anxious he was almost crying: "I really didn't steal it..."
"You mean we're blind because we haven't stolen anything?"
Feng Ye said angrily, "There are so many people here, how come you're the only one who went to such a deep place, and it just so happens to be the place where we set the traps?"
Ah-chan also said, "I saw you pouring the goods from the fish trap into the net bag, you can't deny it."
"Look, where's the net?"
Xu Laosi raised his hand, "You must have seen wrong. I already said I didn't steal anything. I was just catching seafood that was washed ashore by the waves."
Everyone looked at his hands and saw that one of his hands was empty, while the other was holding a scallop.
To be honest, Xu Laosi is quite clever; he actually knew to use a scallop to explain why he went so deep.
But people aren't fools; they wouldn't be fooled by his clumsy performance.
Feng Ye also knew that Xu Laosi must have thrown away the net.
Moreover, it should have been thrown away long ago, when Ah-chan kicked him and he fell into the sea.
"Where's the evidence? If you want to accuse me of stealing your goods, you need to produce evidence, not just talk the talk..."
Old Xu shouted loudly, but his tone was somewhat fierce but actually weak.
"Evidence, right? I'll find it for you right away."
Feng Ye sneered, took two steps forward, and took a deep breath when his foot touched the cage.
Feng Xuan guessed what he was going to do and tried to stop him: "A-Ye..."
But it was too late.
No sooner had he spoken than Feng Ye plunged headfirst into the somewhat murky seawater.
