A stunning mermaid dressed in the 1980s, the whole family lined up to pamper her endlessly.

Chapter 246 Encountering the Cruise Ship Again
Yun Jiao was so excited when she jumped into the sea that she only took a net bag with her waist and nothing else.

So now we can only remove the barnacles from this humpback whale by hand.

Unfortunately, her hands were too small, so even though she was strong, she could only pry slowly.

Then he went into the sea and caught a clam with sharp edges, ate the meat, and now he's using both hands to pry barnacles off the humpback whale.

This whale not only has them on its head, but also on its back, belly, and even the edge of its mouth.

Barnacles cannot clean themselves at all.

Yun Jiao was drawn over by its mournful cries.

Who would have thought that the humpback whale, the ocean's apex predator that can fight orcas to a standstill, would be tormented so much by tiny barnacles?

The humpback whale knew that Yun Jiao was helping it, and at that moment it couldn't be more obedient.

But when Yun Jiao looked at the dense barnacles and the humpback whale's enormous body, she felt a wave of dizziness.

I regret not bringing a shovel.

Cleaning this with seashells is too slow.

Just as she was worrying, her exceptionally good eyesight spotted the cruise ship she had seen earlier.

Yun Jiao patted the humpback whale's head: "Wait for me, I'll go see if I can find a suitable tool."

The humpback whale emitted a distant call.

The sound was somewhat similar in frequency to the singing of merfolk, as if it came from a very ancient place, carrying a kind of soul-stirring shock.

Therefore, merfolk enjoy interacting with whales and use them as mounts.

"You'll take me there? Sure, let's go then."

Humpback whales are large and look bulky, but they are actually quite fast swimmers in the ocean.

Soon, the man and the whale arrived not far from the cruise ship.

Yun Jiao stood on the head of the humpback whale, raised her hands and waved to greet the people on the boat.

Meanwhile, the people on the ship were also quite excited to see her.

"It's that girl who rode the great white shark. I didn't expect to see her again."

"My God, this time she's not riding a shark, she's riding a humpback whale weighing tens of tons!"

"How did she do that, Lin? Are all the people in your country this amazing? Can you ride a humpback whale?!"

The foreigners' eyes were full of excitement and eagerness.

Clearly, they were also eager to try riding a humpback whale.

When asked the question, Deputy Commander Lin's lips twitched.

As explained before, they don't ride great white sharks, so naturally they don't ride humpback whales either!

However, they were also very curious about the little girl on the humpback whale.

"Little friend, is there anything I can help you with?"

Judging from the girl's appearance and hair color, she should be from their country.

Yun Jiao: "Uncle, do you have a shovel? There are so many barnacles on this humpback whale, it's too slow for me to clean it by hand."

They really are from their country.

The Chinese people on the ship were immediately filled with surprise and delight.

The foreigners on the ship were experts they had invited from Russia, mainly to solve some problems they encountered in shipbuilding technology.

However, these guys are so slow and demanding, you have to be considerate of their feelings.

They took a cruise to sea because they said they were tired and wanted to relax.

They have a lot of trivial matters to deal with every day, but since they need someone's help, they have no choice but to serve them well.

Hopefully, I'll be in a good mood today and be able to resolve their issues quickly.

"I have a shovel, do you want the big one or the small one?"

Yun Jiao's eyes lit up: "I want a big one."

Larger areas are naturally easier to clean up.

Several foreigners anxiously asked the translator what they were saying.

Upon hearing that Yun Jiao was going to clean barnacles, everyone became very eager to try. "Can we try cleaning barnacles?"

The people of Russia are incredibly brave; after all, they really dare to fight bears.

“Mr. Andrei, you can’t do something so dangerous.”

"No, how could it be dangerous? The children are safe, so I'm even more fine."

While the people on the boat were arguing about safety, Yun Jiao had already started cleaning up the barnacles with a large shovel.

A group of people on the boat stared wide-eyed as a child cleaned barnacles from a humpback whale.

Under strong pressure from several foreigners, including Andrei, Deputy Commander Lin finally had to ask Yun Jiao.

"Young man, we have a few people on our ship who would like to help you remove the barnacles from the humpback whale. Is this humpback whale safe?"

Upon hearing this, Yun Jiao blinked, thinking, "There are still people who want to work."

Then she won't be polite.

"Okay, it's very well-behaved. Let the one that can swim come down. There's still a big patch on its belly that needs cleaning."

Upon receiving an affirmative answer, Andrei and the other foreigners immediately cheered.

So Deputy Commander Lin and some others put on diving suits and escorted Andrei and his men closer to the humpback whale.

Upon closer inspection, the humpback whale's enormous size was even more awe-inspiring to them.

With that mouth open, it could probably eat several people.

Of course, humpback whales eat relatively small fish and shrimp, and humans are definitely not on their menu.

But if a humpback whale gets upset, it can swat them with its tail and instantly turn them into mincemeat.

Even their ship might capsize.

So the group of people approached cautiously, afraid of angering the enormous creature.

"Little friend, you're amazing! How did you get to know it...?"

Yun Jiao picked at her ears. What was this foreigner babbling about?

Fortunately, a translator was with us.

Yun Jiao: "Oh, we just met today."

"What? We just met, why does this humpback whale trust you so much?"

"I have a good affinity with fish."

Why ask so many questions about whether I'm still going to work?

The foreigners were excited to interact with the humpback whale and found that it was actually very docile and had no intention of attacking. One of them even tried to climb onto its back like Yun Jiao had done.

But the humpback whale clearly resisted, slightly moving its body to push the person away.

"Mr. Andrei, are you alright?"

That's right, this audacious guy is Andrei.

Andrei, wearing a diving suit, was pushed away by the humpback whale and rolled several times in the sea before regaining his balance and swimming back.

"I'm fine! It's resisting me." Her tone was particularly excited.

"But how did that child get up there?"

Yun Jiao put her hands on her hips and said, "Do you want to do some work? If you don't clean the barnacles, I'll take them with me."

Otherwise, wouldn't that be disturbing her work?

"of course yes!"

Andrei and his companions stopped causing trouble and, dressed in diving suits, began cleaning the barnacles off the humpback whale with shovels or daggers.

As the number of barnacles decreased, the humpback whale clearly felt lighter and its mood became increasingly cheerful.

Many hands make light work, and those soldiers were very efficient; in about half an hour, the barnacles on the humpback whale were almost completely removed.

Yun Jiao carried a shovel that was much taller than her and looked at the humpback whale, which was clean all over, and felt a great sense of accomplishment.

"Young comrade, could you please do me a favor?"
