Chapter 369 Where's the Fish?
The fish had indeed been electrocuted, but it didn't die immediately. After the knife pierced its back, the fish immediately struggled on the spot, but except for its back, its entire body was frozen to the ground. Although it was extremely strong, it was unable to break free.
It was also very difficult for a while.
The chef increased the speed of his hands, and with a "hiss", the meat on the fish's back was completely cut open.
During this time, the fish was still struggling.
But Chef Dan didn't care about that. He used all his strength, cutting and pulling with a knife. After a few strokes, the fish's back was completely opened.
The fish's internal organs came into view. It's not uncommon to see these internal organs before, but they were all from small fish, so they weren't that scary. What's more, when buying fish, people wouldn't even look at them and would just put them in bags by the sellers.
Seeing these internal organs now, it really hurts my eyes. Moreover, even in this state, the fish is still struggling in the same place, which shows that its vitality is really tenacious.
After studying it for a long time, we couldn't find anything different in the fish's belly. Even though we didn't know much about fish, we knew that the problem with the fish was probably not in its belly.
Since it's not in its stomach, it must be on its body. Captain Zhang said, "Cut off its two legs."
Everyone suppressed the bloody aura and looked at Captain Zhang.
Captain Zhang, however, was very calm and said, "I've already killed them all and seen them all, so I don't mind having a few more puffs."
But there was a difference between that puff and fish. Chef Shan looked at it for a long time and was at a loss as to what to do. He glanced at Captain Zhang and said, "Why don't you do it? This puff looks creepy and quite scary."
Captain Zhang laughed and said, "You're a grown man, and you're still afraid of this?"
"Aren't you afraid of coming?" Chef Shan retorted.
These words successfully silenced Captain Zhang. He said it was nothing, but the knife attack was a big problem for him because he also felt it was creepy.
But Lao Gao was now interested in this thing. He said, "I'll do it, I'll do it. If none of you are willing, I'll do it."
Ling Jiang looked up at the sky speechlessly, "You really aren't afraid of anything. This thing looks so creepy, don't play with it."
Lao Gao said, "I didn't play. What's there to be afraid of? Is this fish going to come and take revenge on me?"
Lao Gao took the knife from Chef Shan's hand and attacked even more ruthlessly than Chef Shan. With a flick of his hand, the knife cut the fish into pieces.
I thought the fish would struggle even harder after losing its "pu", but who knew that after losing its "pu", the fish stopped struggling and died almost instantly.
Everyone was stunned. He had accidentally found out the opponent's vital point, right?
Lao Gao said, "There are still several of them. Let's try killing one more."
When Lao Gao chopped off a single puff, he still felt a bit creepy, but after chopping off a few, the creepy feeling disappeared. He understood that "the puff is like the heart of the fish. Once it leaves the body, it's gone."
"But whose heart grows outside the body, and it looks like a pair of puffs? I think it looks like a parasite." Shen Zhiyu replied after thinking for a while.
The fish uses its body to support the two "pu", and "pu" gives the fish the ability to move its body on land. Of course, with "pu", even in the water, the two combined can swim faster than anyone else.
"Okay, stop talking. It's getting weirder the more you talk."
In short, it’s okay as long as there is nothing to worry about.
He cut off the "pu" on all the fishes, and both the "pu" and the fishes were dead.
Captain Zhang looked at the gutted fish and said, "Let's freeze this fish. No, let's freeze everything. Let's go to the base and make sure no one is there. Then we'll leave."
Captain Wang said, "Okay, let's go."
…
R city base.
The base today is completely different from what it used to be.
Collapsed buildings, debris all over the ground, and human bones everywhere.
Captain Wang didn't want to go in after just one look. He said, "How could anyone still be alive in this environment? I'll just go to the safe house and check. If no one's there, I won't be able to find them anywhere else."
Captain Zhang said, "Okay, I'll record the loudspeaker and announce it directly at the door. It's so empty here, if anyone wants to come, they'll just come over."
After searching for nearly two hours, I found no one.
But this actually made Captain Wang breathe a sigh of relief. "The surface of the water is dangerous. Even though we have received special training and possess superpowers, we may not be able to return. If these ordinary people follow us, they might die on the way. Whatever."
"Since no one is here, let's go."
After all the team members gathered, they immediately returned to the direction of the ship.
But when they passed by the place where they had just killed the fish, something strange happened. The fish were all gone.
Ling Jiang said, "My ice is very thick. Even if it has melted in three hours, there is no way there won't be any water stains left."
Captain Zhang said, "It's not surprising that there are no water stains. It would have dried up in a few minutes in such hot weather. But what about the fish? There are so many big fish that they can't leave without water. Besides, aren't they all dead?"
"Could there be something else here?" One of the team members said with a vigilant look, "Could there be some mutant creature?"
"What's there to be afraid of mutant creatures? Haven't we seen enough mutant creatures on this trip? Besides, this is outside Maolin. As long as there are no mutant creatures with human faces, there's nothing to be afraid of." Lao Gao said.
This team member hadn't gone in with them, so he hadn't witnessed those horrific scenes. He was a little confused and asked, "Why, are there still many mutant creatures with human faces in the dense forest? Are these mutant creatures very strong?"
"It's not strong, it's just disgusting."
Lao Gao felt a chill when he thought of that scene, but there was nothing wrong with what he said. As long as there were no mutant creatures with human faces wandering around outside, there was really nothing to be afraid of.
What he should be most worried about at this moment is the ship they are going to take, because he is worried that after the personnel are dispersed, they will not be able to deal with the danger, so he did not leave anyone on the ship.
"Let's get back to the ship and get out of here."
The group quickened their pace and returned to the ship as quickly as possible.
Fortunately, there was nothing here from a distance.
But when they got on the boat, they found the dead fish lying on the deck. Above the gutted fish, several mutant creatures like flies were hovering and clinging.
Lan Jin was speechless. "Why is this fish on the boat? Could someone have put it there?"
