Zhao Yu couldn't remember when he had driven a speedboat, but he was quite familiar with it. Within an hour, he was back on land again.
Zhao Yu followed the navigation on his mobile phone. The location of the side adventure was very close to the seaside, so he thought it was a beach. When he got to the shore, he realized that it was actually a local fishing boat dock in Quliang.
There were hundreds of fishing boats docked at the seaside, and some fishermen were working on the shore. They were either repairing their boats, weaving nets to dry fish, or chatting with people leisurely.
Closely connected to the dock was a fishing boat market, where the traders either bought seafood that had just been fished out of the sea or sold it for wholesale. A small portion of the seafood was sold directly to the local residents.
The seawater here was not like that on the island. Not only was it extremely turbid, but it also exuded a strong fishy smell. There were also a lot of stinky salted fish on the bluestone slabs on the shore.
After getting ashore, Zhao Yu continued to follow the navigation on his mobile phone to the specific location.
It was already four o 'clock in the afternoon, so there were still more than ten minutes before the side adventure would take place. Zhao Yu was not in a hurry, so he looked for the specific location while observing the surrounding environment.
Looking at the entire dock market, Zhao Yu felt as if he had gone back decades. The fishermen were wearing very rustic cotton-padded clothes, and the women were still wrapped in floral scarves. The market also had a very old asbestos roof. Under the roof, the peddlers were constantly shouting something, and from time to time, there were a few dogs barking and cats crying.
However, although it was a fishing boat market, there were not many people coming and going. Apart from the peddlers wearing rubber waterproof clothes, there were not many customers.
The peddlers were also lazily looking at their mobile phones. Few of them were still working.
When Zhao Yu got closer, he found that the exact location of the side adventure was in this fishing boat market. He was a little curious, wondering what he would encounter this time.
Unexpectedly, when Zhao Yu had just stepped into the market, something suddenly happened at the dock where the boat had just been docked. At first, there were two or three people shouting something. It seemed that there was some kind of dispute.
Then, after hearing the quarrel, a lot of people ran over from the fishing boat. However, these people didn't seem to be there to watch the show, nor were they there to stop the fight. They were there to cheer!
The dozen or so people quickly divided into two groups. Not only were they shouting loudly, but they were also pushing and shoving each other, as if a big battle was about to break out.
What was going on?
Zhao Yu turned around and took a look. He had no idea what they were shouting about. He looked at his watch. For one thing, it was not yet time for the adventure to take place. For another, the place where the quarrel was taking place was different from the place indicated by the adventure.
In other words, this group of people fighting should have nothing to do with his fortuitous encounter.
Since that was the case, Zhao Yu naturally wouldn't get involved. He turned around and continued to look for the right place. Unexpectedly, after walking a few steps, when he finally found the exact location, he tilted his head in surprise.
Unexpectedly, it was a very ordinary-looking fish stall. A little girl wearing a black cotton coat was sitting on a folding stool, guarding the stall.
Zhao Yu walked in front of the little girl and saw that she had two pigtails. Although her skin was dark and rough, she had thick eyebrows and big eyes. She looked very cute.
"Mm … Uncle, what would you like to order?" The little girl saw Zhao Yu and greeted him with a smile.
"Wow …" Zhao Yu realized that the little girl was at most twelve or thirteen years old. He quickly asked, "Mm … Where are your parents? Don't you need to go to school? "
"Today is Sunday!" The little girl smiled and said, "My dad just came back from the sea. He went home to cook, so I am guarding the stall here. Here, they are the freshest. I can sell them to you cheaply! "
The little girl spoke with a local accent, but it wasn't very strong. It was mixed with Mandarin, which sounded quite nice.
"Oh …" Zhao Yu looked at the fish stall and saw that there were five big plastic bathtubs. There were all kinds of live fish and seafood in the bathtubs.
That's interesting …
Zhao Yu thought for a while and asked, "If I were to buy it, can you take care of it for me?"
"Take care of it?" The little girl didn't quite understand, so she blinked her eyes.
"Take care of it. Scrape the scales and remove the internal organs …" Zhao Yu explained.
"Oh …" The little girl nodded vigorously. She picked up the scissors with one hand and the brush used to scrape the scales with the other, which meant that she could definitely do it.
The children of the poor really matured early!
Zhao Yu looked at the little girl carefully, then went straight to the point. "How about this? You answer a few of my questions, and I will buy it, okay?"
Then, Zhao Yu turned on his phone and showed her Guo Yihang's photo. "Here, take a closer look. Have you seen this person before?"
The little girl was slightly stunned. She had never seen anyone buy fish like this. But, she still stretched her head in front of the phone screen to take a closer look.
After a few seconds, she shook her head to show that she didn't know him.
Just then, with the sound of a police siren, a police car came to a stop in front of the fish stall. Two policemen quickly ran out of the police car. The two of them held their batons and ran straight to the group of people who were having a dispute on the dock.
At that very moment, the conflict between the group of people was getting more and more intense. The shouting from both sides was getting louder and louder, and the shoving was getting more and more intense. If no one came out to stop it, there would probably be a big fight.
"Mm …" Zhao Yu couldn't help but point at the group of people and ask, "They … What happened to them?"
"Oh …" The little girl looked back, and there was a trace of fear in her eyes. Then, she told Zhao Yu timidly, "They … They might have been fighting."
"Well …" Zhao Yu thought about it. Forget it. It's none of my business. Let's just get back to business! So, he pulled out the photos of Qian Jin and the others from his phone, so that the little girl could identify them one by one.
Zhao Yu felt that, since the miracle system pointed to this place, there must be a deeper meaning behind it. So, he had to make good use of it. Maybe the little girl in front of him could be the key to solving the case.
"Uncle, why are you asking about these people?" Although the little girl was frowning, her face was brimming with an innocent smile.
"I am looking for someone. If you can help me, I will buy all of your fish today!" In order to get clues as soon as possible, Zhao Yu promised her.
"Really? That's great! " The little girl blinked her big eyes and wiped her hands off her cotton clothes. She took Zhao Yu's phone and looked through it one by one.
After Zhao Yu passed the phone to her, he looked at his watch. At this moment, it was the time when the miracle was about to happen. Could it be …
Zhao Yu looked at the little girl seriously, and his heart was getting more and more excited. Could it be that … I will really get something this time?
Just as Zhao Yu was looking forward to it, the dispute on the dock had entered a white-hot state. Although the two policemen rushed in with their batons to mediate, someone pushed one of the policemen down, and the baton fell to the ground!
Then, the situation suddenly became out of control. The pushing and shoving from both sides became more and more intense, and finally, it led to a big fight!
"Wow …"
"Kill …"
"% ¥# (Unintelligible profanity) …"
In the blink of an eye, the two sides were fighting, and it was very lively! During this period, a big bald man was punched in the face, and his eyes were black and blue.
Unexpectedly, the angry man suddenly ran towards the fish stall, and he was about to hit the little girl who was buying fish.
Zhao Yu had already seen this person, and he quickly pulled the little girl to his side.
At the same time, the big bald man rushed towards the fish stall and reached out to grab the little girl's scissors! It turned out that the guy had rushed to the fish stall to look for weapons!
However, not only did the hateful guy snatch the scissors, but after he snatched the scissors, he actually kicked over one of the bathtubs!
"Ah …" The little girl was frightened, and she quickly returned the phone to Zhao Yu, then knelt on the ground to pick up the fish.
The big bald man picked up the scissors and returned to the fight. Looking at his determined look, it seemed that he wouldn't rest until he killed a few people today.
"Woo … Woo …" The little girl was so scared that she wiped her tears as she picked up the fish.
"Little girl, the fish won't die. Why are you crying?" Zhao Yu comforted her.
"My … My scissors …" The little girl pointed to the big bald man and said, "If I lose the scissors, my dad will beat me again!"
