The boss is five and a half years old, and wealthy families are vying for his favor.

Chapter 36
All the lights on the bow, cabin roof, and deck were turned on, and the surrounding dark sea became brighter. Through the cool sea blue on the uppermost layer, one could see the turbidity rippling below. Among the surging water, there was an elusive White figure.

"What is that? A great white shark?" Da Zhuang asked in a panic.

"No, it's slender and slender, not like a shark." Jiang Jiao denied, then looked at Jiang Wan, intuitively telling him that his sister might know what kind of creature it was.

Jiang Wan didn't pay attention to his gaze. She concentrated on it and listened carefully. A clear, high-pitched and distant chant came from under the water.

——It came from the white shadow.

"Did you hear that?" Jiang Wan tilted her head back and asked.

She was not tall enough, so she was standing on an upside-down bucket, and Jiang Jiao circled her from behind, protecting her in his arms.

Jiang Jiao listened intently, then shook his head together with Da Zhuang.

Jiang Wan frowned, was she the only one who heard it?

"Wanwan, what's the sound?"

Jiang Wan didn't want to worry her elder brother, so she said, "No, I must have heard wrong."

"Then what should we do now?" Da Zhuang asked timidly. He was tall and tall, and it seemed very unsuitable to show such a timid expression.

Jiang Wan pondered, and Jiang Jiao spoke first: "Maybe they are attracted by the light. Most fish have phototaxis, and this phototaxis is divided into forward phototaxis and back phototaxis, that is, they like light and hate light."

It was the first time for Jiang Wan to understand this kind of thing. Fortunately, Jiang Jiao's explanation was simple and easy to understand, "Those who like light will be attracted, and those who hate light will be driven away, is that so?"

Jiang Jiao nodded.

"Then let's ignore it for now," Jiang Wan had some idea in her mind, "Anyway, it's just wandering around and has no intention of attacking us."

"You were the one who refused to stop the boat just now..." Da Zhuang couldn't help but say.

Jiang Wan glanced at him with a sharp glance, "Only if we keep moving can we confirm whether it is following us. Do you have any objections?"

"No." Da Zhuang promised in a low voice, "I'm back to the cockpit!"

He walked away quickly, Jiang Wan and Jiang Jiao exchanged a tacit look behind him.

Jiang Wan: "He's acting."

Jiang Jiao: "Well, you can't take it lightly..."

It was clear that Da Zhuang and Huang Mao went to dispose of Zhao Bo's body together before, but when they came back only Da Zhuang had blood on his hands, which was enough to show that Da Zhuang was not as obedient and humble as he appeared.

They also planned to return to the cockpit. When passing by the lifeboat placed at the stern, Jiang Wan had an idea and whispered something in Jiang Jiao's ear.

After another half hour, there was a shower of about 10 minutes.

The rainfall was heavy, resulting in a shallow layer of water in the cabin.

"The water has to be drained out." Da Zhuang rarely took the initiative to say.

Both Jiang Wan and Jiang Jiao looked at him, as if he was afraid that he would not be trusted, he hurriedly patted his chest and said, "My father and grandfather are both boatmen. I grew up on a boat, and the accumulated water in the boat must be drained from time to time. of."

"What should I do?" Jiang Wan asked calmly.

Da Zhuang was relieved. Although he had never seen a child as wise as Jiang Wan, he could see that Jiang Wan's words held great weight in Jiang Jiao's heart.

"Just use tools to sweep the water out." Da Zhuang took out a brush and a bucket, handed the tools to Jiang Wan and Jiang Jiao, and then went to the stern.

Jiang Wan supported the bucket, Liu Tianxiang slept for a while, and now he was awake, and offered to help, Jiang Wan gave him the bucket, and went to the door to look out quietly.

There was a sound of splashing into the water from the stern.

Jiang Wan called "big brother" and quickly ran towards the stern of the ship.

The lifeboat has already been launched, and Da Zhuang stands proudly on the lifeboat: "It is a lie to say that the lifeboat is broken! Hahaha, you just wait to die here!"

Liu Tianxiang's eyes were dazed, not understanding the situation.

Standing at the stern of the boat, Jiang Wan and Jiang Jiao had the same indifferent expressions.

"We guessed it." Jiang Wan said.

"How is that possible!" Da Zhuang couldn't believe it, "You guys didn't run away even though you knew the lifeboat wasn't broken? Don't be an afterthought!"

Jiang Wan didn't bother to explain to him, so she raised her hand and waved, "I wish you good luck."

Just in case, she asked Jiang Jiao to cut Huang Mao's arm and made a bloody coat.That bloody coat was tied to the lifeboat, and it might attract something.

At that time, Da Zhuang will really be surrounded on all sides and there will be no escape.

The lifeboat gradually moved away from the ship, and Jiang Wan left the stern without hesitation and returned to the cockpit.

The water in the cabin has not reduced at all, and seems to have risen a little.

The hull was a little skewed, Jiang Jiao walked to the control panel through the water, studied for a while and came up with bad news: "The bottom of the boat is leaking."

"No wonder he wanted to run." Jiang Wan sighed, "He took the life jacket and buoy away."

The button for the distress signal was also damaged.

The only good thing is that the water is not rising fast.

Although it is not yet time to capsize, the sinking of the ship is inevitable.

"You can tie a plastic bottle to your body," Liu Tianxiang thought of the knowledge taught by his teacher, "and you can float on the water."

Jiang Jiao nodded in agreement, "It's a way. There are a lot of plastic bottles in the cargo hold, which just happen to work."

"There is also a folding table," Jiang Wan said positively and optimistically, "it's big enough for us to lie on it and drift."

Jiang Wan himself has a character that inspires fighting spirit in difficult situations, and Jiang Jiao is also fearless in the face of danger. What is unexpected is Liu Tianxiang, who sniffs and obeys the command without crying or making trouble.

Perhaps the active self-rescue brought the dawn of hope, or the dawn never abandoned them. When the stagnant water rose to Jiang Wan's knees, the police rescue finally arrived.

"Wanwan—Xiaojiao—"

Jiang Fangliang and Bai Suyi were on the rescue boat and couldn't help crying with joy.

"Dad! Mom!" Jiang Wan waved excitedly.

She had remained calm, but the moment she saw her family, she suddenly felt a strong sense of fear.

"Wan Wan, my Wan Wan, woo woo woo..." Bai Suyi hugged Jiang Wan tightly, crying uncontrollably.

Jiang Fangliang also hugged his eldest son hard and said, "As long as it's okay, it'll be okay."

Liu Tianxiang cried loudly in his uncle's arms, and the rescue ship was filled with the excitement of surviving the disaster.

Jiang Wan was being held by Bai Suyi and was about to enter the rest cabin when she suddenly heard another roar.

She turned to look at the sea.

"Wan Wan?" Bai Suyi patted her on the back, "Don't be afraid, Mom is here."

"Mom, look." Jiang Wan smiled, raised her finger and pointed not far away.

The deep night sky is like a stone after rain, every star is clearly visible, and the shallow moonlight spreads a silver bridge on the sea.

A large silver fish at least two meters long jumped out of the water. It has a slender body, a round head with four dark red horns, and its fins and long tail are like a bouquet made of gauze. , layer upon layer, smart and elegant, exuding colorful brilliance.

"That's the one!" Liu Guiyan said loudly, "We drove this way only after noticing its light!"

Jiang Jiao's heart was shocked, and he turned his head to look at Jiang Wan.

After the distress signal light was destroyed, Jiang Wan and the others failed to find a replacement light source, and the things following the boat in the water disappeared. Unexpectedly, they went to help the rescue boat lead the way!
"Wanwan, do you know what kind of fish that is?" Jiang Jiao asked tentatively.

Sure enough, Jiang Wan nodded.

"I know. Brother, I also know what the fish Mr. Jiang saw when he was a child is."

Jiang Jiao was startled, and looked at the white silver fish that occasionally jumped out of the sea, "Is that it?"

"Well, it's an ancient creature, Silong."

As if responding to Jiang Wan calling its name, Si Long whistled towards the sky, then dived into the water, this time it swam towards the deep sea, never coming out of the sea again.

Jiang Wan said thank you in her heart, and as soon as her tense nerves relaxed, her eyelids slowly closed.
