After hanging up the phone, Lin Siyu let out a long sigh of relief, her face beaming with a sense of pride that she had accomplished something great.

She jogged back to the deck and waved her phone at Lin Mo.

"Bro! It's done!"

Lin Mo was holding a damp cloth and carefully wiping a rust mark on the torpedo body.

He tried to find some clues, but didn't even look up when he heard this.

"Did you get what sorted out?"

"Call the police!"

Lin Siyu said confidently.

"I've already sent our GPS coordinates to the Coast Guard! They said they'll send bomb disposal experts and a special police team over immediately!"

Lin Mo's wiping motion suddenly froze.

He slowly raised his head and asked incredulously.

"What...did you say?"

I said, "I called the police."

Lin Siyu was completely oblivious to her brother's change in expression and excitedly added.

"The operator was so professional! He said he'd be there as fast as he could! He even activated some kind of emergency plan!"

Lin Mo felt his blood pressure rising at an unhealthy rate.

He originally just wanted his sister to contact the Maritime Safety Administration to report the situation and see if the authorities could send a professional vessel over.

Take this thing away and dispose of it safely.

But instead of taking action, she made a single phone call and escalated the situation to the level of counter-terrorism!

Lin Mo took a deep breath and slowly exhaled, trying his best not to faint on the spot.

He pointed at Lin Siyu, his lips moved, but he couldn't utter a single word for a long time, finally letting out a long sigh.

He could even picture tomorrow's headlines.

Shocking! Fishermen in the East China Sea are actually ruthless maritime pirates, smuggling torpedoes from their fishing boats!

Lin Mo held his forehead, feeling a sudden dizziness.

At this moment, the atmosphere in his live stream room had completely exploded.

The number of online users surged from over 100,000 to over 500,000 after Lin Siyu's dramatic emergency call!

[Holy crap! Half a million people! This streamer is going to become a viral sensation!]

[Going viral? He'll probably end up in jail! What did I just hear? SWAT team and bomb disposal experts?]

[My sister is amazing! (voice cracks) One phone call and the national team came right away!]

[Host: I just wanted to fish quietly, but my sister insisted on giving me the highest level of treatment.]

[Hahaha, I laughed so hard during the cross-server chat part. The coast guard guy's career has suffered a major setback.]

Stop laughing! The coast guard speedboat is here! Look at that gray dot in the distance!

Holy crap! Really? So fast?!

As this comment appeared, the camera in the live stream was immediately zoomed out by busybodies.

On the azure sea, a white wave was rapidly breaking through the surface as it approached from afar.

They sped toward the fishing boat.

It was a law enforcement speedboat, and it was extremely fast, taking only about ten minutes.

It has already transformed from a tiny black dot into a colossal creature whose outline can be clearly seen.

The speedboat slowed down about fifty meters away from the fishing boat, the roar of its engine gradually subsided, and it came to a steady stop on the sea.

Lin Mo looked at the imposing law enforcement speedboat, then glanced at his sister beside him, who was completely unaware of the seriousness of the situation.

I feel even more emotionally exhausted.

"Open the gangway and prepare to receive the passengers."

He gave instructions to the crew members beside him, but his voice was weak and listless.

The crew members snapped out of their daze and hurriedly lowered the gangway.

Soon, the coast guard speedboat approached, and several armed coast guard officers nimbly climbed the gangway.

They boarded the deck of the Lin family's fishing boat.

The leader was a tall, middle-aged man with prominent epaulets on his shoulders.

As soon as he boarded the ship, his gaze swept across the entire deck and finally landed on Lin Mo.

"I am Zhang Yuan, captain of the East China Sea Coast Guard detachment. Who is the captain of this ship?"

The crew members were so frightened by the sight that they dared not breathe and instinctively took a half step back.

Lin Mo braced himself and went to meet him.

"I am Captain Lin Mo."

Zhang Yuan looked him up and down, his brows furrowing slightly.

too young.

Moreover, they didn't look like vicious bandits.

But he did not let his guard down, and his tone remained serious.

"Command center reports... there are explosives on your ship?"

When he said the word "explosives," his voice paused noticeably, clearly indicating that he also had some doubts about this bizarre report.

Lin Mo hadn't had a chance to explain.

He simply turned his head silently and glared at Lin Siyu with a look that seemed to say, "Look what you've done."

Lin Siyu was bewildered by his glare and blinked innocently, as if asking, "What's wrong?"

Lin Mo withdrew his gaze, sighed resignedly, and pointed towards the stern of the ship.

"Over there."

Zhang Yuan looked in the direction he pointed, and when he saw the huge, black torpedo lying quietly on the deck.

Even someone as used to grand occasions as him had a sudden contraction in his pupils.

The young teammates behind him gasped in shock.

Oh my God……

It really is a torpedo!

How exactly did these fishermen manage to dredge this thing from the seabed?

Zhang Yuan immediately gave a hand gesture to the team members behind him, and the two team members understood immediately.

They immediately stepped forward, set up a cordon, and evacuated the surrounding crew members.

The others quickly stepped forward and cautiously approached the torpedo to begin a preliminary investigation.

Looking at the tense atmosphere, Lin Siyu leaned closer to Lin Mo, somewhat puzzled, and lowered her voice.

"Brother, why are they so nervous?"

"Didn't you say it was a dud? It's just a lump of metal, is it really that big of a deal?"

Lin Mo's eyelids twitched again when he heard the words "dud".

He turned his head and looked at his sister with an extremely complicated expression.

"Who told you it was a dud?"

Lin Siyu was taken aback, but then retorted confidently.

"You! Didn't you say before that it was 'probably a dud'?"

Lin Mo's lips twitched.

"That was before!"

He lowered his voice and said with lingering fear.

"I just checked it carefully."

"If you get close, you can smell a very faint sulfurous odor, like... a burnt match head."

Lin Siyu still didn't understand and asked with a blank look on her face.

"Sulfur smell? So what? Did it soak in the sea for too long and get that smell?"

"Screw you!"

Lin Mo was almost defeated by her naivety.

"That's the smell of high explosives! Over time, the chemical composition of old explosives becomes unstable."

"If the outer casing is even slightly damaged, the odor will leak out!"

"Do you understand what this means?"

Lin Mo lowered his voice even further, almost squeezing it out between his teeth.

"This thing...isn't a dud at all!"

"It's packed with explosives! The real thing, powerful enough to blow our ship to the sky!"

"The reason it didn't explode is either because the fuse rusted, or we were lucky and didn't hit the trigger mechanism when we dragged it."

"But whatever the reason, it's now a ticking time bomb that could explode at any moment!"

Lin Mo's words exploded in the ears of the several crew members who were eavesdropping nearby.

"What?!"

"It's...it's alive?!"

A young crew member who had been leaning against the railing watching the commotion just moments before suddenly turned deathly pale.

He remembered that when it was first pulled out of the water, he thought it was fun and kicked it!

Another crew member's legs went weak, and he almost sat down on the ground.

He was sitting on this torpedo earlier, bragging to others!

For a moment, the deck fell silent.

All the crew members who had just come into contact with the torpedo froze on the spot, their faces filled with terror.

The chat in the live stream started discussing it again.

[Holy shit! Alive?! This thing is alive?!]

[Oh my god! I'm having a heart attack! The anchors were just touching and groping each other!]

[What happened to that guy who sat on it? Is he still alive? How was his day trip to the gates of hell?]

[I take back what I just said. The streamer wasn't just lucky; Lady Luck kissed him on the cheek! And he didn't even explode?!]

[Half a million netizens witnessed a brush with death online! It was so thrilling!]

Even the experienced coast guard officers were terrified after hearing Lin Mo's explanation.

They discovered the danger posed by the torpedo during their reconnaissance.

But it was nowhere near as thrilling as Lin Mo, the person involved, described.

Zhang Yuan looked at Lin Mo and couldn't help but admire him.

To remain calm and accurately assess the danger under such circumstances is remarkable; this young man is no ordinary person.

"Young man..."

Zhang Yuan's voice was somewhat hoarse.

"You guys are really lucky."

However, just when everyone was still feeling fortunate...

"elder brother!"

Lin Siyu showed no fear whatsoever; instead, her eyes lit up, and she said excitedly.

"Then... if it were a real thing that could explode, wouldn't it... fetch more money?"

As soon as Lin Siyu said this, everyone on the deck looked at her strangely.

Are you out of your mind?

This is a real explosive device! It's something that can send an entire ship full of people flying into the sky!

We're scared to death here, and you're worried about how much it can sell for?

What exactly is going on in your little head?
