I Go to the High Seas for Fishing But Get Hunted by an Aircraft Carrier
Chapter 80 Zhou Tao’s Plan

Chapter 80: Chapter 80 Zhou Tao’s Plan

To bring down Ye Chen and replace him, Cui Ruogou had indeed spent his entire savings.

But as of now, due to this damned Ye Chen, half of his expenditure was like water off a duck’s back.

More accurately, it wasn’t water off a duck’s back; instead, it had turned into a weapon in the pocket of that kid Ye Chen.

Damn it, he was already in too deep to back out now!

He had rented the office space, hired the staff, and even purchased equipment.

Cui Ruogou could only grit his teeth and go all the way against this guy.

For the time being, this matter could be considered to have come to a close.

Right now, Cui Ruogou only hoped that the giant python in the artificial lake at Jinbao Residential Community could be caught by the fishing team as soon as possible.

That way, he still had a chance to turn the tables.

However, he did not plan to just sit around and wait for death; after all, Ye Chen was going to live stream tomorrow. At that time, he could just ride on Ye Chen’s popularity and keep clashing with him.

Although according to the current results, he did not gain any advantage, he could only do so.

...

Indeed, not only Cui Ruogou watched Ye Chen’s video and became exasperated.

The little black fans who had seen Ye Chen’s video and the conditions he proposed were even more infuriated.

Initially, they received direct messages and thought they might become bait for the giant python.

But who knew, Ye Chen actually released a video, announcing the chosen person was none other than Cui Ruogou!

Plus, after this incident concluded, these little black fans only found out through their exchanges that almost everyone had received such direct messages.

At this point, they finally realized that Ye Chen was clearly just scaring them before.

But, annoyed as they were,

they deleted their comments, penned their apologies, including those big Vs and self-media studios, even the so-called "incense money" was paid. What else could they do?

Could they delete the apology and curse at Ye Chen again?

Having already been embarrassed by deleting their previous retweets of Cui Ruogou’s videos and articles, did they really want to delete them once more?

In that case, they would look too much like flip-floppers, losing face!

Moreover, this group of little black fans firmly believed that the reason so many people received direct messages wasn’t solely because of this.

In less than half a day, the whole internet, aside from Cui Ruogou, had no insulting comments about Ye Chen left.

This sufficiently indicated that there was some backing behind Ye Chen.

And having already suffered losses from Ye Chen, who would dare to bet a second time?

Gamble with Ye Chen? You must be joking!

This kid was too cunning!

He didn’t let even one little black fan off, probably only Ye Chen would do such a thing...

Right now, it was just about fishing for a python.

If one day Ye Chen went nuts and went fishing for sharks,

let’s not talk about anything else, everyone had seen for themselves what end Cui Ruogou who provoked Ye Chen had met.

So...

As infuriated as they were, this group of people could only suffer in silence.

As for provoking Ye Chen again, they really didn’t have the guts anymore.

...

At this moment, on the internet, while the incident concerning Ye Chen had caught the attention of countless people,

it was still only Ye Chen’s fans, Cui Ruogou’s fans, and Ye Chen’s little black fans who were participating.

The majority of netizens still chose to be onlookers.

And most people believed, how could a mere fisherman catch the python that even the professional fishing team couldn’t?

Currently, one day had passed since the giant python was spotted in the Jinbao Residential Community’s artificial lake.

The fishing team personnel kept working in shifts at the artificial lake, but they still hadn’t caught a glimpse of the giant python.

They had even deployed professional detection equipment, but to no avail.

If it weren’t for the surveillance footage of the python’s appearance and its return to the artificial lake after attacking a pet dog,

many people would have doubted whether the giant python was actually still in the artificial lake.

As the branch captain of the Jiang City Police Station, Zhou Tao, had been closely monitoring the situation on-site while also keeping an eye on Ye Chen’s affairs.

After watching the latest video released by Ye Chen, he couldn’t help but relax his tense nerves and let out a helpless laugh.

This brat really could hold a grudge!

He criticized him for fishing without a future and said he should find a job that contributes to the country and society,

and this kid kept it all in his heart.

And this Cui Ruogou, as well as those keyboard warriors on the internet, indeed, everyone was thrilled to see them end up like this.

Back then, in order to get the guy to catch the python, he wouldn’t agree no matter what.

But to take down Cui Ruogou, he stepped up.

Then...

Should I make a call to the higher-ups at this point?

After all, outside the Jinbao Residential Community, there were quite a few journalists and media already reporting on the incident.

The giant python in the artificial lake was like a bomb ready to explode at any time.

If this drags on, the repercussions for the police will become increasingly unfavorable.

Naturally, the residents in the community would feel increasingly panicked.

Even among the homeowners’ chat groups, rumors have spread that the python in the water had become a spirit.

Originally, the developer had disturbed its nest during construction, and now it had returned for revenge.

It was said that in a few days, this giant snake would lay countless baby snakes here.

The rumors grew wilder and wilder, and even some faint-hearted residents had temporarily moved out, leaving Jinbao Residential Community.

However, Zhou Tao naturally didn’t believe these rumors.

But no matter what was said, this situation still had to be resolved as soon as possible.

Thinking this, Zhou Tao simply made up his mind.

Regardless, it was still necessary to report this incident to the superiors.

What if Ye Chen really could catch the giant python?

Initially, the case of the python appearing in the Jinbao Residential Community’s artificial lake was handled by Zhou Tao.

After all, he was the first to arrive at the scene.

And although Zhou Tao was just a minor team captain in the police station, because of his meticulous mind and substantial experience in case handling, he was highly regarded within the police department.

However, as the incident became more intense on the internet and more people paid attention to the giant python,

and since the issue had also not been resolved, therefore,

now the case was being personally overseen by the chief of the Jiang City Police Station.

In order to catch the giant python in the artificial lake as soon as possible, the fishing team members were working in shifts around the clock.

Even at night, the lakeside was still brightly lit.

Above the artificial lake, there were five salvage boats conducting operations, and in the water, there were more than ten professional divers.

Due to it being night, only a few media with cameras and a few sleepless residents were outside the anked-off area of the artificial lake.
