I Go to the High Seas for Fishing But Get Hunted by an Aircraft Carrier
Chapter 146: The Resolute Zhou Tao

Chapter 146: Chapter 146: The Resolute Zhou Tao

After all, this matter is widely known online, it’s hard for Liao Xuexue not to know about it.

Though in the phone call, Liao Xuexue didn’t believe Ye Chen’s nonsense, she eventually agreed.

Liao Xuexue herself didn’t know if she really wanted to see if Ye Chen could actually catch the giant python.

Or if she simply wanted to stay with Ye Chen.

Anyway, she came with Ye Chen for no apparent reason.

But just now, as she followed Ye Chen through the unattended police line, her heart started to waver.

Last time at Seyves Reservoir, that python roughly five meters long had scared her senseless.

If Ye Chen really caught the ten-meter-long python mentioned online, would she have to use a net to pull it out?

As a girl, she truly didn’t have the courage for that!

However, what Ye Chen did next by the lakeside completely baffled her.

Especially when she saw Ye Chen pull out a small yellow duck plush toy from his backpack and hang it on the fishing hook.

This scene couldn’t help but make Liao Xuexue laugh and cry.

Could this thing really catch a giant python?

Just watching Ye Chen take it so seriously, and given the gravity of the situation, she didn’t say much.

After all, with so many people watching Ye Chen, how could she open her mouth and let Teacher Ye lose face?

But unexpectedly, under Ye Chen’s ludicrous manipulation, Liao Xuexue actually saw the giant python on the lake surface!

A huge dark shadow, astonishing in length!

Obviously, in Liao Xuexue’s understanding, no fish in the freshwaters of Hua Country would have such a size!

This clarified the identity of that huge dark shadow!

This was the giant python that had the residents of Jinbao Community trembling in fear!

Following the swimming path of the dark shadow, it would soon reach the direction where she and Ye Chen were.

At first, like the community security, Liao Xuexue also thought to quickly run beyond the police line, the farther the better!

After all, Liao Xuexue had only seen such a large python in movies before!

But thinking that Ye Chen was right beside her, she hid behind him.

In doing so, standing behind Ye Chen, she felt less afraid...

...

Not far away, two police officers.

Their expressions were clearly different from others.

Zhou Tao and Wang Lindong exchanged glances, both could see joy in each other’s eyes.

Wang Lindong was particularly excited, hurriedly saying, "This lad, he really is practicing Mystical Fishing!"

"I had just praised him for being smart, saying he used science to lure out the python."

"Then this lad turns around and mounts a little yellow duck on the hook."

"I almost had no expectations for this lad, yet who knew, he really managed to draw out the huge python!"

Although Wang Lindong’s words were tinged with jest, he couldn’t suppress the joy in his heart.

It wasn’t surprising that Wang Lindong was excited.

This giant python really endangered the safety of the residents of Jinbao Community.

This had become their responsibility.

But the fishing team hadn’t found any trace of the python in the artificial lake, let alone caught it.

Under such adverse circumstances, coupled with the commotion online.

Their department faced a lot of pressure.

Many people online were accusing them of inaction, among other things.

So, as long as the python is not caught, the pressure they face will only increase.

Even in the end, it will become more and more widespread.

The next second...

Wang Lindong suddenly remembered something, and his expression immediately became serious.

This guy has only lured out the giant python, but intends to catch it with that stuffed toy.

Wang Lindong felt it was somewhat unreliable.

Three days.

This was the first encounter with the giant python after it attacked a pet dog onshore.

As the chief of Jiang City Police Station, Wang Lindong naturally would not let go of this great opportunity.

At this moment, he thought of another plan.

Wang Lindong immediately said to Zhou Tao who was standing beside him, "Zhou, I think..."

"Since Ye Chen has lured out this giant python, let’s hurry up and notify the fishing team to catch it."

"To prevent any accidents from happening later!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Tao frowned, and his complexion darkened.

He looked at Wang Lindong displeasedly and asked, "Chief, you... are you planning to abandon him after use?"

Wang Lindong was startled.

This Zhou Tao, speaking so impolitely to him as his chief.

Wang Lindong pursed his lips, expressing his opinion, "What do you mean by abandoning after use, why speak so harshly!"

"Think about it, what if Ye Chen fails to catch the giant python?"

"Wouldn’t we have been busy for nothing?"

"Besides, even if we let the fishing team catch the giant python, the reward promised to this guy could still be given to him, right?"

Deep down, Wang Lindong also felt somewhat guilty.

Even though he is Zhou Tao’s direct superior, the words he just spoke did not hold much authority.

As soon as Wang Lindong finished speaking, Zhou Tao waved his hand and said sternly, "I disagree with this!"

After saying this, Zhou Tao turned to look at the distant shores of the artificial lake and said, "It was I who suggested Ye Chen come here to fish for the giant python, and I who asked him."

"Since we chose to believe in him, we should trust him completely."

"Chief, you must have heard the saying, ’Don’t suspect those you employ, and don’t employ those you suspect.’"

"I believe that Ye Chen has a higher chance of catching the giant python in the water than the fishing team!"

"Moreover, what if the giant python is sensitive to the noise of the fishing boat and runs away again?"

"The most crucial point is, you think calling the fishing team isn’t an act of ’abandoning after use.’"

"But Chief, have you considered, as a fisherman, having painstakingly set up his bait, then a giant creature appears."

"And in the end, you don’t let him fish?"

"What a joke, that’s the biggest insult to a fisherman, you are questioning his fishing skills!"

"I disagree with this!"

Wang Lindong was startled, and after thinking for a while, scratched his head awkwardly.

"I got it..."

"I was just bringing up an option, let the young man continue fishing then."

Perhaps feeling annoyed at being rebuked by his subordinate, Wang Lindong huffed and said discontentedly.

"No wonder you have been a captain all these years, with this sour temperament, can’t you speak nicely in the future?"

Zhou Tao was startled, and upon hearing this, immediately put away his previously dissatisfied expression.

Then he smiled and patted Wang Lindong on the shoulder, "Chief, aren’t my words just some harsh but loyal advice..."

However, the person most surprised by this event.
