My fishing raft will ask for help.

Chapter 220 Untouched

It took at least thirty years to bury it this deep.

Zhou Miao was quite surprised, but it was a good thing for him, at least digging wouldn't be tiring.

So he started digging along one of the exposed bones, digging away the sand around it as well.

Digging a hole in the sandbed is troublesome, as the sand and dust will obstruct the view.

But the water flow here was surprisingly calm, and the sand that had been dug out did not re-bury the pit like the undercurrents elsewhere.

When Luo Hao, who had searched around but found nothing, arrived, Zhou Miao had already dug most of the pit, and most of the remains were exposed.

Upon seeing the skeleton, Luo Hao was so shocked that he stood motionless.

It took him a while to realize what was happening. He quickly went to the other side and started digging with both hands.

Zhou Miao quickly grabbed him and then waved his hand.

Seeing that Luo Hao was completely confused, he thought for a moment and then slapped the other man's arm hard.

Luo Hao, feeling the pain, immediately withdrew his hand, puzzled.

But the next moment, Zhou Miao waved his hand again.

Then, seeing the other person gently pat his hand, Luo Hao remained silent for three seconds, and then he understood.

He tried to dig gently in the sand, moving carefully.

Seeing Zhou Miao nod again, he finally understood what Zhou Miao meant, so he carefully began to dig, trying not to disturb the scene.

Zhou Miao was relieved to see this, because he knew that Luo Hao's uncle had been murdered, so the scene could not be disturbed after the remains were discovered.

Once the murder weapon is found, Luo Hao will understand what happened and can then go back to report it to the police.

Moving the remains, retrieving the murder weapon, and recovering the piece of clothing all require the assistance of professionals.

As he dug, a knife handle came into Zhou Miao's view.

He perked up and quickly patted Luo Hao's head. When Luo Hao looked over, he pointed to the hilt of the knife.

Luo Hao was a little confused when he saw it, but as Zhou Miao continued to dig through the sand, a dagger held tightly by a skeleton hand appeared in his line of sight, and he immediately widened his eyes.

Knowing that he had figured out what was going on, Zhou Miao stopped digging, patted him on the shoulder, and pointed upwards to bring him back to his senses.

Luo Hao nodded heavily and immediately swam towards the surface of the water.

Once back on the surface, as soon as Zhou Miao appeared, he eagerly asked, "Miao, did that dagger just now prove that my uncle and grandfather were murdered?"

"It's not certain whether the remains are those of your uncle or grandfather, but this discovery is enough for your family to report it to the police and have them come and investigate."

Zhou Miao didn't give him a definite answer, because he didn't need to explain the truth; he only needed to guide him.

"You're right, it's certainly more thorough to have the police investigate."

Luo Hao gradually calmed down, but his clenched fists remained tightly closed.

If his grandfather and uncle were alive, his family wouldn't have had such a hard life, and they wouldn't have suffered so much.

He was already married with children, not forced to break up because of poor family conditions and not even having a decent self-built house.

Although he had come to terms with the incident, his anger toward the murderer only grew stronger.

Seeing this, Zhou Miao sighed softly, "Let's go, let's go back and call the police."

When they came, they thought they could quickly dig out the remains and not waste much time here, so they could go and collect sea urchins instead. However, they did not consider Luo Hao's emotions after discovering the truth.

He was too embarrassed to ask the other person to go sea urchin fishing with him again, so he had no choice but to go back first.

After the two returned to the ship, Luo Hao, who had calmed down, suddenly said, "Let's call the police when we get back this afternoon! So many years have passed, one more day won't make a difference."

"You spend a lot on fuel for each trip out to sea, and we've already bought the food. I also brought two extra air bottles. Even if we don't use them, we won't get a refund on the rental fee, so we might as well use them up before going back."

"Uh, are you sure?"

Zhou Miao paused as she was about to take off her diving suit, and looked at him with some surprise.

Luo Hao forced a smile: "Let's go, take me to the place where you found the sea urchin."

"I don't know how to thank you for this, so I'll just do some work for you first."

"Alright!"

Since Luo Hao himself said so, Zhou Miao naturally wouldn't be pretentious.

Start the fishing boat and head to the coral reef.

The two took nets and sea urchin hooks and went into the water together again.

When Luo Hao saw that the coral reef was full of sea urchins, he was once again amazed.

If it weren't for the lack of fencing around the area, he would have thought this was someone else's farm.

However, seeing that Zhou Miao had already started scooping sea urchins, he went over to watch for a while, and after figuring out what to do, he also got busy.

In just one morning, the fishing boat was already piled high with sea urchins.

Luo Hao had used up all the air tanks he brought, but Zhou Miao still had two left.

Adhering to the principle of not wasting food, the two decided to skip lunch and use up the last two bottles of air before heading back.

Unfortunately, we were a bit unlucky; the weather suddenly changed and it started raining on our way back.

Unfortunately, we were a bit unlucky; the weather suddenly changed and it started raining on our way back.

Luo Hao quickly covered the sea urchins on the boat with various things to prevent them from getting wet in the rain.

As for the two of them, they could only get soaked like that.

It's already mid-November, and the weather turns cold after every rain. Luo Hao's constitution isn't as strong as Zhou Miao's, and his lips were already white from the cold when he returned to the fish raft.

He quickly went to take a shower and change his clothes, while Zhou Miao handed the morning's ingredients to Lu Xiaoxiao, asking her to go to the kitchen to cook noodles.

Then he was going to the dock to sell all the sea urchins to Pang Yu, but the customers who came to the fish raft today were very curious about what he brought back from the boat.

When they discovered a boatload of sea urchins, everyone was shocked by the sheer quantity, and someone immediately offered to buy them.

Seeing that there was business to be done, Zhou Miao was naturally happy to agree.

It was a slight discount, but it was still better than wholesaling directly to Pang Yu.

Upon seeing this, Lu Xingyu immediately brought out a batch of newly purchased electric ovens and gave each customer an egg, encouraging them to cook for themselves.

After selling a batch of sea urchins to customers, Zhou Miao sailed to the dock and sold the remaining majority to Pang Yu.

The combined income from both sources just exceeded 40,000 yuan.

In fact, the money earned from selling seafood is quite lucrative because no matter how much you earn, you don't need to pay taxes.

For someone as gifted as him, it's much more enjoyable than doing other businesses.

Now that he has more than 500,000 yuan, Zhou Miao will go check on the fishing boats after he finishes making his profits from the sea urchin harvest.

At least with the fishing boat, the two of them won't get caught in the rain when they come back today.

Especially after winter sets in and it gets colder, even he might not be able to stand getting caught in the rain.

Back at the fish raft, Luo Hao had already taken a shower and was slurping noodles in the kitchen.

"Brother Miao, you should go wash up too, then come out and eat noodles. I'll also make you some ginger soup." When Lu Xiaoxiao saw him come back, she quickly brought over a dry towel and stood on tiptoe to dry his hair.

"Okay!" Zhou Miao smiled and bent down to cooperate. After drying her hair, he kissed her before going into the wooden house to take a shower.

Lu Xiaoxiao paused for a moment, then smiled and walked briskly back into the kitchen, completely ignoring the customers around her who were looking at her with teasing expressions.

If it were any other woman, she would definitely blush and feel shy being stared at like that.
