Chapter 938: Returning to the Sea

“Master, are you going out to sea again?” Wang Qian saw that Zhang Zian was, once again, carrying the heavy battery, and blurted out the question.
“En, anyway, I’ve been idling away,” Zhang Zian answered casually.
“Store Manager, when can I go with you out to sea to whale watch?” Jiang Feifei asked, her eyes wide. She had already requested the same thing many times, especially after she had heard that Zhang Zian had even encountered a group of whales when he had gone out to sea the last time. Her heart was even more itchy and impatient.
“Wait for a few more days. After a few days I’m going to bring Famous to the capital to participate in the Mainland premier. At that time, the assault boat and the Wuling Hong Guang MPV will be idle. If you want to go out to sea, you can drive the car to the seaside yourself, then take the boat out to see. I’m not responsible for whether you manage see any, though.” Zhang Zian finally relented.
“That’s great!” Just as Jiang Feifei wanted to cheer happily, she instantly sighed again. “But I still have to go to work… You can’t go whale watching at night, can you?”
“That’s all right. The day Dog Warrior premieres in the mainland, the store can have a day off. You can go out and have fun,” Zhang Zian said with a laugh. “Anyway, when I’m not in the store, you all become lazy. Don’t think that I don’t know.”
“Master, you have wronged us! Whether you are here or not, we are all conscientious and dedicated to working without complaint…” Wang Qian expressed his disapproval.
“Ga ga? Conscientious?” Richard’s eyes shone suddenly.
Zhang Zian did not acknowledge it––the more he acknowledged it, the more energetic it became. He added, “But you should be careful when you go out to sea. You can’t drive the boat too far, and you should properly wear a life jacket… Right, do you all know how to swim?
“I know! I know! I learned in my physical education lessons!” Jiang Feifei nodded.
“That’s good. Xiao Yun, you can also go with them.” Zhang Zian looked at Lu Yiyun, who shrank back and shook his head to show that he was not interested in going to sea. He preferred to stay at home during the day off.
Zhang Feifei ran back to the aquarium, telling the news to Li Kun. The three of them began to discuss the plans for that day off. Of course, they would be going to the seaside in the morning to whale watch, then at night, they would go to support Dog Warrior.
Zhang Zian drove to the familiar seaside. He inflated the assault boat with ease and familiarity, connecting the motor and the battery.
He had nothing in his hands and was very relaxed. He did not bring the underwater speaker or the underwater sound device, as the latter had already been returned to Binhai University. He had also fulfilled his promise and gave several ice anemones to the biology department that Wei Kang was in. The mode of transportation was very simple: They were kept in a foam incubator filled with ice and seawater. Anyway, the pet shop was very close to Binhai University.
When Wei Kang saw him holding the foam incubator at the door of the office, he thought he had come to deliver some takeaway. After opening the lid, however, he saw the several ice anemones that were rooted in the ice and was immediately so shocked that his jaw fell open.
Even though Wei Kang’s area of research was not marine life, the peculiarity of the anemones could be seen at a glance. He repeatedly asked Zhang Zian where he got them.
Zhang Zian expressed that he had picked them up from the seaside by chance––which was the truth, but Wei Kang did not believe him.
What made Wei Kang’s heart ache most was that Zhang Zian had actually used a foam incubator to carry over, which was basically a reckless waste of God’s gifts.
Wei Kang called over his colleagues who studied marine life, all of whom were able to tell whether something was good or bad. At first glance, they recognized that the anemones were rare organisms that had just been discovered in recent years. Their habits and characteristics were unknown. They might even have strong medical and medicinal value, which immediately caused a small sensation.
In order to compete for the ownership of the ice anemones, the elegant professors and associate professors showed their true forms: They blew each other’s’ beards; stared at each other; and patted the table to compare their qualifications. They almost even started a physical fight… After all, having things to experiment on was the equivalent to having research papers; and having research papers was the equivalent to having professional titles; and having professional titles was the equivalent to having status; and having status was the equivalent to having some money…
How they decided to allocate the ice anemones internally had nothing to do with Zhang Zian. He put down the foam incubator and the underwater sound device and went out, believing that after his experience, if he needed to borrow anything in the future, it would definitely be very convenient.
After he had pumped the assault boat full of air, Zhang Zian pushed it into the sea and got into it. He rowed the boat to waters with the depth of one meter, then started the motor; the boat sailed off the shore briskly.
Although he had warned Jiang Feifei and the rest not to go too far out with the boat, he drove the boat very far––even further than he had in the past. He only stopped at a distance that, even after he used the binoculars he had brought with him, he could not see the scenery on the shore clearly.
The dark blue waves were fluctuating continuously. He was surrounded by a vast expanse of open space, and no person or ship could be seen.
Zhang Zian took out his phone, and his signal had already fallen back to 2G. He did not even have to hope that he could go online, as the signal itself was sometimes absent.
However, he did not need signal and did not need the Internet.
He started the game and aimed the back camera at the water nearby. He found the mermaid in the pet bar, then pressed “release.”
Splash!
Sihwa appeared out of nowhere. She fell into the sea, unprepared.
Hua!
She popped her head out of the sea, wiped a handful of seawater on her face, and looked around in surprise. She licked her lips again; the salty taste came into her mouth, which made her understand immediately.
“This… is the sea?”
“That’s right,” Zhang Zian answered.
Since Sihwa’s likeability had already increased to friendly, that meant that she could leave the pet shop. Zhang Zian had captured her into his phone and brought her to the sea that she had not seen in a very long time.
“That’s great! I can finally leave that shabby bathroom! I’m practically going to cry!” Sihwa found it difficult to restrain the excitement in her heart. She raised her slender white arm and began backstroke. After staying in the bathtub for so long, she had almost forgotten how to swim.
She raised her small face to stare at the white clouds in the sky, her two hands alternately hitting the water. Her strong fish tail and wide caudal fins were visible in the sea, and her speed could easily break the world record of human swimmers.
Sihwa could swim freely, but Zhang Zian could only sit in the boat and watch the wind. He observed the surroundings from time to time in case a boat suddenly came over towards them.
She swam backstroke, freestyle, and butterfly, using all the kinds of swimming strokes she knew. She even jumped happily from the water and turned a somersault before she plunged into the water again, creating big splashes. Once, she even dove fiercely and came up ten minutes later. She laughed loudly and threw a fierce-looking, big crab into the boat to frighten Zhang Zian. She was having a very good time.
Zhang Zian was really frightened. He was afraid that the crab’s claws would pierce a hole at the bottom of the boat and cause him to fall into the sea and become companions with the fish and shrimps. He threw the crab back into the sea in a hurry. His fingers were almost pinched…
After playing for around half an hour, a cylindrical fountain erupted from the sea not far away.
Right after that, the sea water separated into left and right sides, and a broad, blueish grey back emerged from the sea.
Unsurprisingly, it was 52 Hertz.
