Chapter 153

    

ds were sweating with nerves.The man slowly reached out his hand to lift the jade curtain, but suddenly, his hand froze in mid-air.At this moment, all the flashlights in everyone's hands started to fl...At that moment, I thought it was over. In the darkness, Red Sister grabbed my arm and panted heavily. I could feel her muscles tense, she was also very nervous.

What can I do... what can I do I can't just sit here and wait to die.

I had a sudden inspiration and came up with a not-so-original idea.

On deck, Lao Huo was yelling loudly, clearly reminding me and Hong Jie.

I heard the sprouts talking.

"The fish storeroom is full of dead fish, the smell is overwhelming. I suggest you don't look."

"Hey, I'm telling you, you talk too much! This is a routine inspection. Just open up, and stop wasting time!"

He couldn't keep it in any longer. The little bean sprout first intentionally knocked on the iron plate twice, then directly lifted it up.

Immediately, several powerful flashlights swung downwards.

Captain Lao Huo chuckled and said, "Look here, folks. These are all fresh dead fish that haven't had time to be frozen yet. They smell delicious! There's a ladder there. Why don't you go down and check them out"

">

The strong flashlight was waved back and forth for a minute or two, then someone said: "Alright, the inspection is complete, let's turn it off. We won't be going down further. If anything happens, remember to report it promptly."

">

Old Huo slammed the iron plate shut with a clang. He stood on it, smiling, and said: "Understood, understood. I'll definitely report back if anything happens. Have you guys eaten Why don't I prepare some fresh seafood for us to have a bite"

"No need."

The voices of those people grew fainter and farther away.

As soon as the man left, Red Sister and I suddenly popped out from among the dead fish.

We were so nauseated we couldn't stop dry heaving. I could smell dead fish everywhere, in my nose, eyes, and ears, and I was about to vomit from fear.

If anyone wants to try this taste, you can buy a fish in summer, leave it for a week, then hold the fish and burrow into your bed with it over your head. After smelling it, you'll surely remember it.

The inspector left, and the little sprouts pulled me and Sister Hong out of the fish tank. We were dizzy from the fumes. Old Ho arranged for some people to bring us a few bottles of Huo Xiang Zheng Qi water, saying that drinking this would clear our heads and refresh us.

Things have eased up a bit. Hong Jie, her face dark with displeasure, asked Lao Huo, "How much longer until we get there"

">

Lao Huo said bluntly, “Tomorrow night at 7:30, we will definitely be able to reach Zhonggang Pier.”

"""

I asked, "Captain, hasn't our cargo been inspected"

"Don't worry, everything is fine. I put the two boxes in the sailor's room, disguised as a wardrobe. They didn't notice."

">

But... may I ask just one more thing What kind of goods are in your boxes

"Knowing that you're being nosy, just take your money and be quiet. Don't ask things you shouldn't," Red Sister was still angry about the incident with the fish tank.

The rest of the day went smoothly. As we approached the Chung Hom Kok Pier, we could hear many foghorns from afar. Fishing boats slowly docked at the shore.

Sun Lao Da personally came to pick her up. He rented a closed seafood wholesale small truck, hired a truck driver, and he himself was driving a Nissan.

"Yun Feng, Xiao Hong, you worked hard. This trip wasn't easy, was it"

"

"Big brother, why didn't you bring your head" I asked him, looking at him.head and fumble with a bundle of rope, tying it around the corpse in circles. Finally, he took out a very worn yellow hemp bag. It was clearly ancient, and two characters written in red cinnabar were...
