My fishing raft will ask for help.

Chapter 89 The True Lie

Chapter 91 The True Lie

A successful hunt immediately brought Yu Muzhou a taste of the joy of hunting.

However, Zhou Miao was even happier than him, because it was another day of abundant lobster harvest.

However, the quantity this time was significantly less than last time. After catching them all, it felt like only about fifty pounds, which was almost half of what it was last time.

This is why Zhou Miao releases many animals weighing three or four taels, but only accepts those weighing five taels or more.

Fifty kilograms or so can fetch several thousand yuan, so today's trip to sea wasn't a waste.

However, there's no need to catch lobsters anymore after this, and we can call people to salvage the shipwreck. Let's see what kind of reward the reef will give us.

After catching the lobsters, Zhou Miao returned to the water and saw Yu Muzhou still playing, so he dived to the bottom and picked up some large conch and scallops that he had found while passing by.

There were also a few conch shells, but they weren't particularly big; each one weighed only about half a pound.

After collecting about half a netful, Zhou Miao returned to the boat.

First, change your clothes and take a shower, then come out to prepare lunch.

Bring out the barbecue grill and folding table, then take out a brush to scrub the snails.

Zhou Miao had already grilled the conch and scallops when Yu Muzhou returned, carrying two grouper weighing about a pound each and a lobster.

"Is that all the spoils?"

Yu Muzhou's face twitched, and he glared at Yu, saying, "Don't be ungrateful. Fish guns aren't that easy to play with. Why don't you give it a try?"

"Alright, alright, as long as you find the fish hiding in the crevices, you can catch ten or eight with your eyes closed. I won't go into the water to discourage you," Zhou Miao joked, placing the soaked vermicelli on the scallops.

However, these words made Yu Muzhou blush, because he almost came up empty-handed except for the lobster. In the end, he actually found two blue-spotted lobsters hiding in the rock crevices and successfully hunted them at close range.

I wanted to continue, but the oxygen in the cylinder was almost used up, so I had to come back.

"Where did all these fish come from, hiding in broad daylight?"

Zhou Miao chuckled and continued busying herself with lunch, no longer teasing him, lest she push the old man too far and force him to go back into the water to prove her point.

"You can do these as you see fit."

Yu Muzhou placed the fish and lobster on the table, said something dryly, and then hurriedly went inside to take a shower.

What else can we do but grill them over charcoal!

Zhou Miao prepared the fish and lobster, and set them aside to marinate. He would replace them with the scallops and conch once they were cooked.

Then we continued with skewers of beef and lamb; seafood alone wasn't enough to fill us up.

Today's cloudy weather, with the sun blocked out, made the sea temperature very comfortable.

Otherwise, Zhou Miao wouldn't have come out to do barbecue; normally, the sun alone would have cooked a person.

This was the first time he had felt so relaxed and at ease since he came to Nanzhen.

Fishing, diving, and then cooking a seafood barbecue yourself—that's a truly leisurely and enjoyable way to spend your days.

Perhaps this is the confidence that comes with having hundreds of thousands of dollars!

The bulging wallet successfully relieved Zhou Miao of the heavy burden that had been weighing on his mind.

Unfortunately, he still needs to invest in Yu Muzhou's fishing club, so it's far from the time when he can relax and enjoy life.

After enjoying a delicious lunch with Yu Muzhou, they continued fishing for a while in the afternoon. Finding that the fish weren't biting much and they weren't catching much, the two decided to head home.

The main purpose of going out to sea today is to find a good fishing spot. Since we haven't found one yet, we certainly won't just randomly pick a spot to night fish.

Yu Muzhou escorted Zhou Miao back to the dock, where Pang Yu was already waiting.

The price of lobsters was about the same as last time, and with some fish caught in the afternoon, the total came to 7,800.

Today, Zhou Miao was sailing on Yu Muzhou's boat, which was essentially a risk-free business, and he was quite pleased with himself.

"Brother Zhou, do you know any salvage teams? I want to salvage the ship that Xingyu crashed into."

Yu Muzhou, who was about to leave, turned back in surprise: "You have so much money you don't know what to do with it, why don't you invest more in my fishing club! Or buy a car or a fishing boat, why bother salvaging that stuff?"

"The story of Xingyu being stranded on a deserted island is quite interesting. I can write it into a plan, make it into an animation, and post it online to attract customers to my fishing raft. When customers come, they will definitely be curious about the wrecked ship. I can find a place to display the shipwreck so that everyone can take photos and check in."

However, Zhou Miao's hastily made-up excuse could not convince Yu Muzhou.

But he didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he gave him a deep look before saying, "I'll make a call and ask. I'll send you the contact number on WeChat later."

"Okay, thank you, Brother Zhou."

"Don't mention it, it's nothing."

Yu Muzhou waved his hand and sailed away from the fish farm dock.

Zhou Miao didn't have anything to do at the moment. The small boat wasn't at the dock, which meant that Lu Xingyu was still on the fish raft. So he prepared to go home first. But as soon as he stepped onto the road, a police car stopped in front of him.

Moreover, those who came down included not only familiar police officers from the local police station, but also comrades from the Maritime Safety Administration.

This scene puzzled Zhou Miao, who initially thought they were there to find him.

When the police officers and maritime officials saw him, they simply nodded and stood in front of the dock, seemingly waiting for someone.

Zhou Miao found it strange, so he stood aside to see what was going on.

After a while, he saw Lu Xingyu driving over in a small boat.

"Ah Miao, what are you doing here?"

"I just got back, what's this?"

"We're just here to ask Lu Xingyu a few questions, it'll only take a few minutes," a police officer proactively answered Zhou Miao's question.

Seeing that they had taken Lu Xingyu into the car, Zhou Miao could only suppress his questions and stand aside to wait.

More than ten minutes later, Lu Xingyu got out of the car, and the police car left.

"What happened?" Zhou Miao asked hurriedly.

Lu Xingyu also looked a little bewildered.

"It's nothing major. The police station called today to ask if I had time to come over and inquire about some things."

"I told them I needed to supervise the work at the fish rafts and couldn't leave, so I'd go back tonight."

"I didn't expect them to come over on their own in the afternoon. They showed me two photos and asked if I recognized the two people in the photos."

"Who knows those two middle-aged men! Then they asked me what the man who chased me looked like before my boat capsized at sea."

"I don't really remember much, I can only try my best to give a satisfactory account."

"I guess there was something wrong with that ship back then. They probably wanted to investigate me and try to find some clues."

As soon as Lu Xingyu finished speaking, Zhou Miao immediately thought of the group of people hiding on the deserted island.

He also had his own speculations about smuggling when the police brought him and Lu Xiaoxiao back after they were taken away last time.

These events seem to have been connected all at once.

However, Zhou Miao was very curious: if those people were really smugglers, what would they be smuggling?

Hiding on a deserted island, why would they risk using something so noisy? It's all very intriguing.

So, how can I safely and effectively provide information that someone is hiding on the deserted island?

The main problem is the source of the information, which he can't explain.

Zhou Miao now has two choices: one is to wait for those people to be arrested, and the other is to create a true lie.
