The Fisherman Who Never Catches Fish

"I just broke out in a cold sweat, I really thought the streamer was gonna catch a fish."

"Phew... We can finally breathe easy."

The viewers were happy.

But on Fang Hao's end...

His mood was once again like a rollercoaster ride.

Plunging from a peak down to a valley.

It felt like his mind was about to collapse.

Whales aren't fish...

That's all he could think about right now.

It was like a mantra, looping in his ears over and over.

He thought he was finally going to catch a fish this time, achieve a great feat, but fate had tricked him again.

Where's the promised fish?

How come it's not a fish again?

He went through all the trouble to reel in a big whale, only to be told it's a mammal, not a fish.

Ah... He felt like he was at his breaking point.

Fang Hao was going crazy inside.

But what could he do, after all, he didn't catch a fish.

So frustrating.

When will this streak of bad luck ever end?

Then Fang Hao turned to look at the young whale he had just hooked, his eyes gleaming green.

This scene sent a shiver down the spines of the viewers in the livestream.

They had a bad feeling.

"The streamer isn't thinking of..."

"Streamer, don't do anything foolish, this Small Whale is a second-class protected animal, you'll go to jail if you eat it."

"Don't do anything stupid, Hao Bro."

"You have to resist."

"You caught the whale, but it's not their fault, don't eat them."

Sensing that Fang Hao might be considering eating the whale, the viewers immediately tried to persuade him.

Some even went online to look up the background of this whale, confirming that the young whale was a second-class protected species.

Eating a protected animal, that would be a severe crime.

Although everyone kept teasing Fang Hao and joking about him, they certainly didn't want to see him go to jail.

They absolutely had to stop him from making such a foolish mistake.

"Uncle Mo (Bro), stop the streamer, quick."

"Uncle Mo, save the little whale, don't let the streamer go astray."

"Abs Bro, talk some sense into him as well."

They saw Dahamo nearby and felt somewhat relieved.

After all, Dahamo was a police officer, and he would certainly prevent Fang Hao from doing anything stupid.

Their biggest fear was that Fang Hao couldn't withstand the pressure and would end up eating the whale.

If he really ate the whale...

Then...

Fish would be eaten in the morning, people would be locked up in the afternoon.

Then it would truly be over.

Take advantage of the situation now when nothing has happened yet, everything can still be stopped.

Nip all beginnings of trouble in the bud.

In fact, they knew that this blow was a bit heavy for Fang Hao.

If it were them, they definitely wouldn't be able to resist.

Without a few bites of whale meat, they wouldn't feel appeased.

But thinking is one thing, actually doing it is another.

They could understand Fang Hao's feelings and emotions, but understanding aside... they still had to stop him, they couldn't let him make a mistake.

Absolutely not.

Dame dame.

A crowd of people were constantly sending barrage comments and messages in the livestream, hoping Dahamo and the others would see them and prevent Fang Hao from taking action.

"Hao Bro, Hao Bro." At this time, Xiao Pang called out to Fang Hao.

This brought Fang Hao's thoughts back to reality, and his eyes gradually regained some lucidity.

"What's up?"

"The brothers in the livestream just now asked me to tell you not to eat the whale."

The fact was.

At that very moment, Fang Hao had indeed entertained the idea of eating the whale.

It was so infuriating.

If he didn't eat it, it wouldn't be enough to vent his anger.

But then, after seeing the whale, he felt a little reluctant... and when he remembered the information alert he had seen in Mechanical Eye stating that the Small Whale was a protected animal.

He slowly calmed down and regained his rationality.

The anger also subsided substantially.

This was Fang Hao, after all, with a decent ability for self-regulation, quickly adjusting his mindset.

If it had been someone else, they might have lost their sanity and just gone ahead and butchered the whale.

After calming down a bit, Fang Hao also noticed what the viewers in the livestream were saying.

Hey, these little trolls actually said something sensible today.

He felt somewhat comforted inside.

But well.

How could Fang Hao admit that he had just contemplated eating the whale and indignantly insisted.

"What kind of person do you all take me for?"

"Am I that kind of person?"

"Yes..."

"Damn."

"What do you know, I was giving the whale psychological counseling."

"Have you ever thought, if you were kidnapped, wouldn't you be scared?"

"The Small Whale is also a mammal, just like humans, they're also babies. When we reel them in, they must be afraid, so naturally we should protect them."

Being stubborn is my signature move.

"Wow, that actually makes sense."

"I can't even come up with a rebuttal to the streamer's argument."

After hearing what Fang Hao said, the crowd didn't know what to say in response.

The others on the boat were also gathered around the whale, observing the one that Fang Hao had caught, but they didn't dare to approach.

After being pulled onto the deck, the whale tried to struggle a bit, then gave up and simply lay there.

Only its eyes were moving.

Fortunately, this whale is a mammal, and a brief departure from water was no problem at all since they breathe with lungs. As long as they aren't out of water for a long time, it's fine; being out of water for an extended period can lead to their skin drying out and cause dehydration and death.
