21: Chapter 21 Danger

In the blink of an eye, it was already afternoon, and the people in the livestream were starting to doubt their own lives...

They watched as Qin Mo, after catching his first fish, seemed to have opened up his meridians.

He was catching a fish every ten minutes on average, one big fish after another, as if the fish knew him...

Meanwhile, Su Qing and Murong Lanlan were so shocked by Qin Mo the entire time that their jaws dropped, eventually just sitting behind him to watch him fish...

The audience in the livestream went from disdain, to shock, and finally to numbness...

Many were already considering how to smash their own fishing rods later.

After all... what use is this iron rod to me...

"Wow ( ๑ • ̀ ㅂ • ́ ) و ✧!"

"So many fish! Qin Mo, you're amazing!"

Murong Lanlan looked at the big fish in Qin Mo's fish keeper with surprise and admiration, saying.

Qin Mo said with a proud look, "That year, I walked with both hands in my pockets, not knowing what an opponent was!"

This time, Murong Lanlan didn't refute Qin Mo; she was already drooling at the fish in the keeper...

"Holy crap! The Streamer's skills are as high as his bragging; it's a realm beyond our imagination!"

"The Streamer is like a cow in a plane—he's really reached the sky!"

Qin Mo pressed his hand down, "Low profile, low profile, this is just basic operation, don't be surprised."

At this moment, the corners of Qin Mo's mouth were stretched up to his ears; it was harder to suppress than an AK.

It was his first time catching so many fish; he had finally bid farewell to the title of 'skunked fisherman.'

Awesome!!!

System, I freaking love you to death!

"How's the fishing going, folks?"

Just then, a deep voice interrupted Qin Mo's daydream.

The owner walked over swaying, holding a few bottles of water in his hands.

"Oh, the owner is here. We caught so many; you really have a lot of fish here. We'll come again next time!"

Murong Lanlan said excitedly.

A trace of disdain appeared on the man's face. These people looked like they were from the city; they probably only caught one or two fish. Truly ignorant.

Then, he smiled slightly, keeping a straight face, "Oh? That's great, welcome, welcome! You must be thirsty, right? Have some water."

As he spoke, the man handed the water to Murong Lanlan, a glimmer of anticipation flashing in his eyes.

He had put sleeping pills in the water. As long as the three of them drank it, heh heh...

Murong Lanlan didn't notice anything and opened the bottle cap, about to drink.

Qin Mo, standing nearby, was quick-witted and snatched it away.

"What are you doing?"

Murong Lanlan looked at Qin Mo in confusion.

Qin Mo held the water and asked.

"Are you thirsty?"

Murong Lanlan nodded her little head immediately.

"I'm thirsty."

Qin Mo glanced at the man nearby and said indifferently, "Don't drink water for now, drink it later."

"Why?"

Murong Lanlan touched her head, unable to understand what Qin Mo meant.

The man glared fiercely at Qin Mo, secretly angry inside.

Kid, you dare to ruin my fun? I'll throw you into the lake to feed the fish later!

Seeing that Qin Mo and Murong Lanlan probably wouldn't drink in the short term, the man took out another bottle and handed it to Su Qing.

"Beautiful, thirsty? Have some water."

Su Qing turned to look at the man. She didn't know if it was her imagination, but she always felt that the way the man looked at her made her very uncomfortable.

"Thank you, I'm not thirsty for now."

She still politely refused the man.

"Fine, then drink when you're thirsty."

The man placed the water on the ground expressionlessly.

Then, he stood behind them, occasionally scanning Su Qing and Murong Lanlan with greedy eyes.

"By the way, I heard you caught quite a bit, let me see."

As he spoke, the man walked over to the fish keeper in front of Qin Mo and lifted it with force.

...He didn't lift it...

The man looked confused, thinking it was snagged on the bottom, then used all his strength to lift it.

Suddenly, the fish in the keeper surfaced, jumping and splashing.

??? ??? He was stunned.

The man was dumbfounded...

Holy crap! This isn't scientific! Didn't they say people from the city can't fish?

Is this what you called a lot?

I think all the fish in the entire lake are in your keeper...

"Hahaha..."

"I'm dying of laughter; seeing the owner's expression, I can imagine my own expression from just now."

"It took the owner less than 10 seconds to go from disdain to dumbfounded; calculating the owner's mental shadow area!"

...Then the man put the fish keeper back into the water.

He was a bit angry inside. Damn it! Time was running out, and these three people still hadn't drunk the water. It seemed he had to do it the hard way.

Two weak women and one green kid, nothing to worry about.

After realizing this, the man turned around with a dark expression and said, "You can't take these fish away!"

"Why?"

Murong Lanlan asked in confusion.

"I'm buying them all for one thousand yuan."

Qin Mo looked at the man with a gaze that suggested he was looking at an idiot.

He said coldly, "Not for sale!"

"Yeah, mister, we're not selling. I'm going to have steamed fish when I go back."

Murong Lanlan didn't notice any problem and was still thinking about how to eat these fish when she got back.

At this moment, the man's expression was dark and uncertain.

"I said, you're selling these fish whether you want to or not, otherwise... I'm afraid you won't be able to leave."

"What do you mean? Are you trying to force a sale?"

Su Qing's expression immediately darkened. She took out her phone from her pocket and was about to call the police.

The man was quick; he lunged forward, snatched the phone away, and sneered.

"Beauty, I advise you not to act rashly. This is the middle of nowhere, you know..."

"You..."

Su Qing was terrified and pulled Murong Lanlan to hide behind Qin Mo; after all, he was the only man here and the only one who could give them a sense of security.

"Qin Mo, what's going on?"

Murong Lanlan was still a bit confused at this moment.

At this moment, the people in the livestream were in an uproar.

"Holy crap? What's going on? Did this owner get embarrassed and angry because the Streamer caught so much, and now he's planning to rob them?"

"Upstairs, are you brainless? How much are these few lousy fish worth? I think this owner probably just saw that Murong Lanlan and her mother are pretty and had evil intentions."

"That can't be, right? This is a society ruled by law, isn't it?"

"Why not? A middle-aged man in the middle of nowhere guarding a lousy fish pond every day—seeing such top-tier beauties, and two of them at that, is enough for him to take the risk!"

"What the hell are you guys still standing there for? Hurry up and call the police!"

"Ah? Right, right, right!"

The netizens reacted and scrambled to call the police.

At this moment, Qin Mo looked at the man with a cold sneer.

"What? Seeing that we didn't drink your water, are you getting embarrassed and angry?"

The man was stunned for a moment. How did he know there was a problem with the water?

Then, he threw caution to the wind and sneered, "Since you found out, there's no need to bother anymore. Today, none of you are leaving!"

"Qin Mo, do you mean there was something wrong with the water?"

Qin Mo nodded expressionlessly.

Only then did Murong Lanlan realize; no wonder Qin Mo wouldn't let her drink that water just now.

She immediately said angrily, "We were even planning to come back next time; how can you be such a bad person!"

"Heh heh, little beauty, don't worry, there's worse waiting for you later."

"You..."

Murong Lanlan was instantly rendered speechless with anger.

Su Qing said with a dark face, "How much money do you want to let us go?"

The man looked at Su Qing as if she were an idiot.

He leered, "No amount of money can replace the two of you. Besides, once I take you two down, isn't all your money mine?"
