Chapter 616: Hu Zi Has Arrived

Hu Zi couldn't be relied on; Wu An only hoped that Yu Kai Lang would step up, quickly report the situation to the superiors, and have the relevant department send someone.

For now, it seems there's no hope.

His clash with Ma Weiqun started too suddenly; there's nothing to be done, time waits for no one.

He could only go all out.

He couldn't just sit and wait for death.

Otherwise, if Ma Weiqun fed him to the fish, even if he later brought Ma Weiqun to justice, it would have nothing to do with him.

If he stayed on the boat and fought Ma Weiqun to the death, he would most likely be fed to the fish.

So he definitely couldn't just stay on the boat waiting to die.

Wu An said, "Listen to me."

"When Ma Weiqun and his men come aboard our boat, everyone follow me and jump ship."

"I'll have the older group arrange dolphins to help us escape."

A Qing's eyes lit up, and he shouted happily, "Brother, really?"

"What are we waiting for? Let's arrange it now."

"If we could have dolphins carry us around the sea, that would be a blessing in disguise."

Wu An couldn't be bothered with him.

That's just how A Qing is.

Before, he brought this kid around the village, mixing with people to the point of being worse than a dog, but A Qing didn't care and remained carefree, still playing along with him.

Just like now.

But in his previous life, before his rebirth, A Qing sought him out for a drink, having obviously become mature; his words were serious and proper, no different from anyone else's.

Although the present A Qing is quite unruly, Wu An still finds the current A Qing more likable.

Fu Yongning and the others exchanged glances.

"Have dolphins take them to escape?"

"Can that really work?"

"What do you think?"

"No matter how you look at it, it feels unreliable."

Lao Fu Tou said, "Fine, everyone's wearing life jackets; jumping into the sea is still better than staying on the boat and clashing head‑on with Ma Weiqun and his men."

"Soon."

"Two 'clangs'."

The fishing boat collided; Lao Fu Tou said, "The fishing boat can't steer, it's been taken over."

Everyone's hearts sank.

"We're about to jump into the sea."

"A bit panicky."

"If we clash head‑on with Ma Weiqun and his men, it'll just be injuries and beatings—outcomes we can predict."

"Just jumping into the sea and letting dolphins take us away."

"Just thinking about it feels crazy."

"No confidence in our hearts."

……

Ma Weiqun heard his subordinate shout that they had already taken control, laughed wildly, grabbed a loudspeaker and yelled, "Wu An, are you coming out willingly, or shall I come fetch you?"

"If I were you, I'd come out myself."

"Don't bother begging for mercy; I won't let you go even if you do."

"But you can give it a try."

"If you beg like a dog, I'll be in a good mood and might spare your people."

"I'll give you only three seconds to think it over."

"Three!"

"Two!"

"One!"

Wu An's face fell; if he didn't still have a trump card, he'd really be in for a harsh beating from Ma Weiqun!

"So frustrated, so frustrated!"

"Well, this is great!"

"The dolphins weren't rescued, and we're still forced to jump ship!"

"But if you ask whether Wu An regrets it—"

"He has no regrets!"

"How would you know unless you try?"

"Doing nothing at all is what would make him regret it!"

"That's settled!"

"As they say, thirty years east, thirty years west; if he waits until tomorrow to go back, he'll be able to bring Ma Weiqun to justice!"

"It would take just a day to get his revenge—what need is there for a bicycle?"

"Just bear with it!"

A Qing was eager to try: "Brother, go ahead and jump—I can see the older group waiting for us down below."

Mei Wu said, "What's the rush?"

We have to wait for Ma Weiqun's people to get on our boat before we jump; if we jump now, Ma Weiqun will have people steer the boat and chase us off.

By then we'll really be doomed.

Ma Weiqun waited a while, didn't see Wu An come out, and felt somewhat disappointed.

But he soon smiled; catching the mouse himself would be more fun.

"Come on, all of you, attack!"

"As soon as you see someone, hit them directly, don't hold back!"

Ma Weiqun didn't want any further mishaps, so he sent all his men over; these guys would apply pressure, walking while banging their weapons to make noise.

On the other side of the cockpit, Wu An and the others heard the sound getting closer; Wu An raised the iron rod in his hand, the cat was at the corner.

Running away is definitely necessary.

But before running, we also need to express our stance.

Knock someone out with a stick, then run.

Just as everyone was ready to knock out the stick and then jump ship, in the black night of the rainstorm, a faint whistling sound came.

Wu An was stunned, then overjoyed!

This sound, he naturally wouldn't mistake it, it's Hu Zi's!

Hu Zi has arrived!

Then what the hell are we running for!

Wu An turned around and said to Lao Fu Tou: "Lao Fu, go to the cockpit and start the boat!"

"Hu Zi has arrived!"

"We don't need to jump ship and run!"

Lao Fu Tou had no doubts; he believed Wu An's words, opened the window; although he's not young, he's quite agile, crawling into the cockpit through the small window.

Wu An didn't have time to knock out the stick; he ran to the side of the boat and told the big circle to quickly find Hu Zi and have him attack the fishing boat.

Hu Zi is very smart.

He could probably guess the situation just by seeing the three boats; Wu An had the big circle deliver a message, just to add an extra layer of security.

The big circle let out a "squeak" and immediately sank, disappearing.

Wu An turned around; A Qing and Mei Wu had already started fighting. Since it was a sneak attack and the corner space was cramped, although Ma Weiqun had many men, only two or three could stand in front.

A Qing and Mei Wu struck first and gained the upper hand, not falling behind.

"A Qing, Mei Wu, don't hold back!"

"Hit them hard!"

Wu An shouted, then lunged over, swinging the iron rod directly at that person; the person tilted his head to dodge, but couldn't avoid the blow to his shoulder.

This blow landed with a "bang"; the man screamed, fell to the ground rolling in agony.

Wu An also felt his hand go numb from the shock, involuntarily grimacing, but ignoring the pain, he swung the iron rod again at another person.

He really went all out.

His head heated up, his blood surged, giving him a reckless feel.

Actually.

At times like this, it's impossible to stay calm and think; one relies solely on sheer ruthlessness.

Thinking back to how stifled I felt earlier, wanting to have everyone jump ship and run, now I just want to beat these bastards to death!

As they fought, the fishing boat suddenly shook.

The fishing boat on the left shook even more violently, with intense pitching, feeling as if the waves had lifted it a meter or two.

It was Hu Zi's handiwork.

The fishing boats were close together; Wu An's fishing boat was also affected, and the three boats drifted apart in the wave motion.

Immediately after that.

Lao Fu Tou seized the opportunity, drove the fishing boat forward, and immediately broke away from the two boats that were pincering them.

It must be said.

Their coordination was quite perfect.

Ma Weiqun and Lin Bin, lying on the deck, couldn't help being shaken all over; seeing Wu An's fishing boat suddenly take off, they cursed in frustration.

Wu An was overjoyed; in his heart he gave Hu Zi a thumbs-up, glanced at the few people groaning on the ground, then raised his iron rod, aimed at the several people retreating repeatedly, and shouted: "Heaven's wrongdoing can be survived; self-inflicted wrongdoing cannot."

"Ma Weiqun attacked dolphins, provoking the sea's anger and people's resentment."

"Open your dog eyes wide and see what's in the sea."

Those few people turned their heads to look.

Four or five killer whales surfaced beside the fishing boat, instantly shocking those few people into speechlessness.

Good heavens!

They simply couldn't believe their own eyes!

They watched helplessly as the killer whale pod acted in unison, creating a massive surge that, like a mountain-moving sea, lifted Ma Weiqun's fishing boat high into the air.

A twenty-five-meter fishing boat isn't small, but in the vast ocean it's no more than a leaf.

The fishing boat pitched and rolled in the stormy waves.

This scene was incredibly shocking and terrifying to the extreme!

Wu An continued to scold: "Ma Weiqun is doomed."

"Are you going to follow him down a dark path to the end, or turn from darkness to light?"

"I'll count to three."

"Now drop your weapons, and I won't hold you accountable for storming my boat and committing violence."

The words just fell.

The remaining few also realized that relying on them was already hopeless, quickly discarded the weapons in their hands, and raised their hands: "Wu An, we didn't want this either."

"It was Ma Weiqun who forced us."

"Yes, actually we are also victims."

"……"
