Fishermen's live stream: Twelve bodies were retrieved at the start.

The roar of machinery once again echoed across the sea.

As the winch turned, the thick steel cable slowly tightened, gradually pulling up the fishing net that had been lying dormant in the deep sea.

"How is it? Can you feel it?"

Lin Mo stood at the ship's railing, feeling the slight vibrations of the hull, and turned to ask the crew member in charge of operating the machinery.

The dark-skinned crew member was intently staring at the screen on the control panel.

The screen displays the winch's tension data, and through complex algorithms, the weight of the fishing net underwater can be estimated in real time.

This allows the captain to have a general idea of ​​what the catch will be.

"Captain, something's...something's strange."

The crew member frowned, his face full of confusion.

"strangeness?"

Lin Mo walked over.

"Look at this number."

The crew member pointed to the numbers on the screen.

The weight reading displayed above was fluctuating at an extremely abnormal frequency.

289 kg

3.5 kg

451 kg

12 kg

670 kg

This bizarre scene left everyone dumbfounded.

The live stream cameras faithfully recorded everything, and the chat exploded instantly.

[Holy crap? What's going on? Schrödinger's fish?]

[Is this weighing scale intoxicated? Why is it still dancing?]

I get it, this is called quantum fishing. You never know if it's fish or air inside until you pull it to the surface.

Is it possible that the streamer caught a group of fish that can teleport?

[Upstairs, you've been reading too many fantasy novels!]

Lin Siyu also came over, looking at the fluctuating numbers with disbelief.

"Brother, is this machine broken?"

She circled the expensive, sophisticated instrument, then stretched out her foot and tentatively kicked the casing.

"Bang!"

A muffled thud.

The numbers on the screen jumped even more excitedly.

Everyone: "..."

Lin Siyu awkwardly withdrew her foot.

"Well, it seems it's not a problem with the connection."

The viewers in the live stream were laughing hysterically.

[Haha, my sister's the same way, she'll kick anything!]

If classic physical therapy doesn't work, try increasing the intensity!

[Machine: I've endured violence that no one my age should have to bear.]

[Siyu, your kick made it jump even harder! Did you electrify it?!]

Lin Mo glanced helplessly at his younger sister.

"Don't mess around."

He patted the machine's casing and carefully observed the data stream on it.

Is the machine broken?

Unlikely.

This equipment was recently imported from abroad at a high price. When it was installed, the manufacturer even sent an engineer to debug it.

He remembered clearly that the engineer had emphasized one point when explaining the precautions.

To ensure absolute accuracy in measurements, the sensors in this machine have extremely high requirements for the surrounding electromagnetic environment.

Any current of any intensity can interfere with it, causing data anomalies.

Could it be that……

Is something underwater leaking electricity?

When this guess came out, even Lin Mo himself felt it was a bit outrageous.

Where would an electrical leak come from on the vast ocean?

But apart from this explanation, there seems to be no other possibility.

"Siyu, go and get the spare handheld speaker."

Lin Mo gave the instructions.

"it is good."

Although Lin Siyu didn't understand why, she immediately ran back to the cabin.

Lin Mo then picked up the walkie-talkie and spoke to the crew member operating the winch.

"Slow down, pull upwards at a steady pace, and don't stop."

No matter what's underwater, bring it up first.

The viewers in the live stream listened to Lin Mo's analysis and began to let their imaginations run wild.

[Underwater electrocution? Could it be that they caught an electric eel?]

Even an electric eel wouldn't have that much power, right? Enough to interfere with a machine weighing several hundred kilograms?

Could it be something military-grade? Like a sunken submarine or something...?

Don't talk nonsense. If that thing were leaking electricity, all the fish around would be belly-up by now!

[I bet it's an alien spaceship! Streamer, you're rich!]

Lin Mo looked at the increasingly outrageous comments and was both amused and exasperated.

However, they were right about one thing.

If there really were a strong electric current underwater, the surrounding fish would have been scared away long ago.

Let alone big fish, there probably won't even be any small fish or shrimp left.

It seems this attack will most likely target the air force.

Thinking of this, Lin Mo couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

I was hoping that this last broadcast would be a big hit, giving today's live stream a perfect ending.

It seems like that's all for naught.

"Brother, I've got the sonic boom!"

Lin Siyu ran back holding a handheld device.

Lin Mo took the sonar and aimed its probe at the underwater direction where the fishing net was located.

A blurry outline quickly appeared on the screen.

The fishing net was perfectly shaped, but it was completely empty inside.

There was no sign of any large fish.

However, at the very bottom of the fishing net, there seems to be a long, thin object dragging along.

Because of the distance, the sonar image was not clear, and only a rough outline could be seen.

Just then, the winch stopped turning.

"Captain, the fishing nets are on the surface!"

The crew shouted.

Everyone's hearts jumped into their throats.

Everyone craned their necks to look out at the sea.

"Splash—"

With a loud splash, the huge fishing net finally broke through the water.

As the sonar detected, the net was empty, with only some scattered seaweed and a few unfortunate little fish.

But at the bottom of the fishing net, a huge pillar-shaped object suddenly appeared before everyone's eyes!

The object resembled an elongated cannonball, and its length was estimated to be over three meters.

Holy crap!

A young crew member, after seeing what the thing looked like, couldn't help but swear.

"Is...is that another torpedo?!"

His shout caused everyone around him to change their expressions.

Why did we catch another one today?

This luck is just unbelievable.

Holy crap! A torpedo? Really?!

[This streamer's luck is incredible! While others are fishing, he's catching weapons?]

[Quick, quick, get away! If it explodes, the live stream will be gone!]

[Anchor: I just want to fish in peace and quiet, why do I always have to be put through these terrifying ordeals?]

The atmosphere in the live stream instantly shifted from anticipation to tension.

However, Lin Mo's expression remained calm.

He stared at the columnar object, examining it closely.

wrong.

This is not a torpedo.

Although they look very similar, there are many differences in the details.

First, there's the color. Torpedoes are usually black or dark green, but this thing is gray.

There seem to be some white letters and numbers on it, but they are somewhat blurred by the seawater.

Secondly, there's the tail section, where the torpedo's propeller is located.

However, the tail of this thing has several stabilizing fins that resemble fish fins.

Most importantly, Lin Mo saw several very obvious grooves on this thing.

That seems to be the location reserved for an antenna?

An unfamiliar term suddenly popped into Lin Mo's mind.

[Ding! Special item detected: The latest "Sentinel" series underwater reconnaissance buoy from Country M!]

[Item Information: This item is a high-tech unmanned underwater vehicle, resembling a torpedo in appearance, but with entirely different functions.]

Its primary purpose is not attack, but rather through the various sophisticated sensors it carries.

[Conducting intelligence gathering, environmental monitoring, and signal relay underwater.]

[Status: Deployed less than 72 hours ago, internal equipment in good working order, energy supply sufficient, possesses extremely high research value.]

The system notification sounded in Lin Mo's mind.

Underwater reconnaissance buoy?

So that's what it is.

Lin Mo suddenly realized.

No wonder the weighing machine was behaving strangely; it turns out this high-tech contraption was working underwater.

The leaked electromagnetic signals interfered with the equipment.

"Don't be nervous."

Lin Mo raised his hand, signaling everyone to remain calm.

"This is not a torpedo."

He picked up his phone, pointed the camera at the buoy, and said in a deep voice.

"This thing is much more troublesome than a torpedo."

"Contact the Coast Guard immediately."
