"Hair?"
Why would the fishing line be covered in hair?
The fisher had been fishing for more than ten years, and this was the first time he had encountered something like this. His mind was blank, and his eyes stared subconsciously at the fishing line. He wanted to confirm whether it was hair or water plants.
The fishing light slowly sank. When the light moved downward, the fisher saw a black shadow rising.
It was not clear, but he could see a rough shape. There were no fins, no tail, but there appeared to be limbs.
"A person?"
That was the only thought in his mind when the boat was rammed again. The man panicked. He took out the knife that he carried with him to cut the fishing line and rowed toward the shore like a madman.
"Pull me back! Quick! "
He rowed as hard as he could, but the boat did not move at all. The black hair with the stench crawled up the boat.
"What the hell is this?"
The boat not only did not move toward the shore, it was being pulled toward the center of the dam.
The man's eyes reddened. He grabbed the bucket next to him and tossed the special bait that he had carefully mixed out into the distance. Eventually, he tossed the bucket out as well.
No one knew what his bait was made from, but strangely enough, after the bait was tossed out, the black hair on the boat disappeared silently, and the shadow quickly moved toward the spot where the bait was thrown.
"Am I saved?"
The man grabbed the paddle and was about to row back to the shore when he turned back to see something that he would not forget for the rest of his life.
At the bottom of the dam, things that looked like black water plants floated up from the water and swarmed toward the bait that he had tossed out.
"There … there are so many of them …"
His limbs were cold, and his body was shaking. The man did not dare turn back anymore. He grabbed the paddle with both hands and rowed toward the shore.
"Save me, save me!"
The thing in the water was attracted by the fisher's bait, and it temporarily let him go. Using this opportunity, the man escaped.
He rowed the boat back to the shore with all his might and scrambled to get onto the shore.
Still shaken, the fisher's body was covered in cold sweat. He sat at a spot far away from the bank and gasped for air.
"You saw the King Fish?" Zhang Dabo was shocked by the man's reaction and quickly ran to the fisher's side.
The man waved his hands madly. His lips were purple, and he could not form a complete sentence.
"Tell me, what did you see? When we first arrived on the boat, didn't you say that you were holding a harpoon and that you would catch the King Fish when you saw it? Why are you scared now? "
"There's no Fish King. It wasn't the Fish King that was underwater earlier!" The fisher's voice was intermittent, and it was mixed with his own breathing.
"Not the Fish King? What's that? "
"Human! It's a person! "the fisherman shouted crazily. His emotions were very unstable.
While he was conversing with Zhang Dabo, Chen Ge turned on his phone and shone it at the boat.
The specially-made luminous bobber rolled to the corner of the boat. This bobber was much bigger than the ones on the market. Chen Ge walked forward a few steps with curiosity.
He saw something that looked like black hair on the stern of the ship.
Chen Ge was very brave. Something had just happened in the reservoir, but he still dared to stand by the water.
Looking at the pitch-black surface of the water, no one knew if there were any strange monsters hiding below.
Narrowing his eyes, Chen Ge put his hand into the cold water and grabbed the hemp rope.
He pulled the boat to the shore and fixed it on the wooden plank.
After doing all that, he realized that the fisher's emotions were still unstable, and Zhang Dabo did not notice him.
"This is a chance."
Chen Ge pressed the play button on the recorder and jumped onto the boat.
His body swayed, and Chen Ge was still not used to it.
He picked up the luminous bobber from the corner. This bobber was no different from the ones on the market, but it was bigger and more eye-catching. "It's very smooth, and there's a layer of ointment on the surface. There's a seam in the middle, and it looks like it can be opened."
Exerting force, Chen Ge twisted the bobber open, and a faded stench drifted out.
What he saw surprised him. There was a little finger stuck inside the bobber.
The wound had already coagulated, and there was no livor mortis, so it was hard to tell when it had been cut off.
"If there's a finger inside the bobber, then what is the bait that he used?" Chen Ge started to understand why the 'King Fish' would only bite this man's hook — his bait was indeed unique.
Picking up the cloth from the boat, Chen Ge wiped away his fingerprints on the bobber and then placed it back where it was.
Then, like nothing had happened, he jumped back onto the shore and walked toward the fisher with a trace of disgust.
As he walked, the expression on Chen Ge's face slowly changed. When he reached the man's side, he had returned to normal.
The fisher was quite spooked. He gripped Zhang Dabo's arm tightly and stammered, "Human! Like seaweed, they're floating up one by one! "
"Send him to the hospital, he probably has something wrong with his brain." The fisher's symptoms were similar to those visitors who entered his Haunted House with bad intentions. Chen Ge only glanced at him before giving him his treatment.
"Okay." Zhang Dabo finally managed to help the fisher up, but the latter pushed him away. "I'm not lying to you! That's not the King Fish! It's a human! "
"Has the King Fish turned into a demon?" Zhang Dabo smiled bitterly. "Calm down, we need to go to the hospital first."
"What hospital? I'm not sick! " The man pushed Zhang Dabo away again. He seemed to remember something and rushed to the water's edge. With some hesitation, he jumped onto the boat.
"Why are you going there?" Zhang Dabo was worried about the man, so he chased after him.
However, the fisher had already returned to the shore. He placed the special bobber inside his pocket.
"Why are you still concerned about your bobber at a time like this? Is the man more important or the bobber? "
The fisher ignored Zhang Dabo. After retrieving the bobber, he ran out of the dam. No matter how hard Zhang Dabo called for him, the man did not turn back.
"He doesn't even want the fishing rod? This fishing rod isn't as valuable as the bobber? "
"Perhaps there's some kind of secret hidden inside the bobber." Chen Ge signaled for Zhang Dabo to stay away from the water. "Brother, do you know the man's name and where he lives?"
"Why are you looking for him?"
"I'm also a fishing enthusiast. I wish to learn from him and return the fishing rod."
"His name is Yu Qingjia. He has a strange temper. After divorcing his wife, he lives alone in Eastern Jiujiang. I don't know the exact location, but I know it's not far from the dam."
After getting the important information, Chen Ge picked up the fishing rod from the boat and chased after the man.
Zhang Dabo watched as Chen Ge slowly disappeared into the night, and he scratched his head. "This man is so weird. Could he just be looking for an excuse to steal the fishing rod? I'm not being deceived, right? "
Chen Ge had good stamina. He held the fishing rod and followed behind the fisher, maintaining a safe distance.
He suspected that the man was involved in a murder, and he needed to investigate that. Other than that, he wanted to know what the man had seen inside the dam.
