Finally, Famar floated up and started swimming back with all his might.
"Where's Walter? Why didn't he come up? "Lily shouted frantically.
But as soon as she said that, she saw water splashing behind Famar.
Walter seemed to be fighting with something. It was a giant catfish, a catfish that was even bigger than Walter.
This giant catfish was ridiculously large, almost twice the size of Walter.
Everyone became nervous. Could Walter defeat the giant catfish in the water?
Chen Zhao didn't doubt it. Walter's combat ability was different from his size.
A while later, the catfish floated on the water. Walter started swimming toward Famar. After catching up, he put his head on Famar's back and helped him swim back to shore.
Seeing that the man and dog were fine, everyone heaved a long sigh of relief.
"Famar, are you okay?"
"I'm fine. The catfish bit my ankle and dragged me down. Luckily, Walter saved me." Famar nodded. He was still scared.
It was just a joke. He didn't think that he would really be in danger.
Famar looked down at Walter. "He's really strong."
"Walter, go get the catfish to shore," Chen Zhao said. "We'll eat catfish tonight."
Everyone looked at Walter, and then at the giant catfish on the lake.
"Are you sure Walter can get it to shore?"
"Of course."
"Famar, sit here. I'll do a check for you."
Famar had really drowned just now. Chen Zhao needed to confirm that Famar didn't have pulmonary edema. If he did, they had to send him to the hospital.
"I think I'm fine. I'll be fine." Famar patted his chest.
"If you want to eat that catfish, then listen to me and let me check it."
"Okay."
Chen Zhao checked again. After confirming that Famar was fine, he let him go.
By then, Walter had already dragged the catfish to shore. Everyone worked together to pull it up.
The young people used all their strength to move the catfish.
The catfish was too big, really big.
Especially its mouth, it could swallow an animal the size of a child.
However, it was impossible for a catfish to swallow an adult. Catfish had a habit of attacking aquatic creatures that were smaller than or close to their body size.
They were more aggressive than sharks, and in the United States, there were occasional cases of children drowning in catfish.
Therefore, some catfishes were also called killer catfishes. Of course, such incidents were relatively rare.
"I didn't expect there to be such a big catfish in this lake," Famar said.
"There may only be one such lake. It's impossible for it to accommodate a second giant catfish like this."
The area of this small lake was less than two square kilometers. It was connected to the river and belonged to the category of flowing water.
Such flowing water could ensure the water quality of the lake, but it would also cause the large fish in the lake to escape.
After all, it was difficult for other large fish to survive in such a small lake with an overlord. If they stayed, there would be no way for them to survive. They could only choose to escape.
If the catfish didn't have enough food, it might starve, which was why it attacked Famar.
However, it was no longer as tyrannical as it was in the water.
Chen Zhao cut open its stomach. Suddenly, he found a bead.
"What's this?"
"It's from Hell," Blackie said, floating beside Chen Zhao. "It has Hell's aura."
"Beelzebub, come here."
Beelzebub came over happily. "What?"
"Do you recognize this?"
"It looks like a demon's subordinate mark."
"What's a subordinate mark?"
"I'm a subordinate of Gluttony. My body has the mark of Gluttony."
"Is it innate?"
"Yes."
"So, this catfish is actually a subordinate of a big demon?"
"It's also possible that it ate a subordinate demon, and this subordinate mark was left in its stomach."
"Is that possible?"
"The possibility is small, but it's not impossible. In my current state, I'll definitely be eaten if I meet it."
"So, some demon came to the human world and unfortunately fell into the water, then was eaten by this catfish?"
"I don't know. Maybe it's like you guessed."
"It ate a demon. Is it okay if we eat it now?"
"No problem."
"What's the use of this mark?"
"If I collect enough subordinate imprints, I will be able to summon a superior demon."
"How many do you need?"
"Not necessarily. It depends on the superior demon it belongs to. I belong to Gluttony. I'm afraid you'll need to collect 100 Gluttony's Marks to be able to summon Gluttony's projection. If it's just an ordinary subordinate demon, maybe three to five marks will be enough."
"What if I want to summon your demon king, Satan?"
"It's useless. If His Majesty doesn't respond, no one can summon him. If he's willing to respond to you, you can summon him to the human world without paying any price."
"That bad?"
"That's how it is."
…
"Robio." Fali walked in from outside. Robio was shocked. He crushed the newspaper in his hand and threw it into the trash can.
"What is it?" Robio looked up at Fali.
"You've been sitting in this office for an hour. This isn't something a Coastal Lifeguard should do. You can't save anyone here."
"Okay." Robio stood up.
Fali didn't follow him out. Instead, she looked at the newspaper Robio threw into the trash can in confusion.
She picked it up and opened it. There was a huge headline.
"Hero of Fire?" Fali started reading the newspaper. It said that a man and a dog had saved nine people from a fire.
There was also a photo, but it wasn't clear enough. It looked like an Asian and a dog.
Fali looked at the dog in the photo and couldn't help but frown.
Why did the dog look so much like Walter?
Fali looked out the window and saw Robio jogging on the beach. She was even more confused.
Fali read the description in the newspaper. LA Seventh Fire Brigade.
Fali changed her clothes and left the beach without saying goodbye.
She had to figure things out, regardless of whether it was Walter or not.
Although the photo in the newspaper wasn't clear and was in black and white, Fali felt that it was Walter.
Plus, she also noticed that the person in the photo with the dog seemed to be the illegal doctor from last time.
