Chapter 64: Chapter 64: Don’t Do Things That Don’t Benefit

Liao Xuexue sighed: "Teacher Ye... look"

"This snake looks so wronged, it’s almost crying..."

"This..."

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen immediately looked down at the giant python.

Indeed, at this moment, the giant python had a face that hadn’t expressed anything yet.

Meanwhile, Zhou Tao, who had just gotten out of the police car, and his colleagues also witnessed this scene.

They couldn’t help but have the corners of their eyes twitch fiercely.

Just now, someone said that Ye Chen got quite scared after catching such a thing.

But looking at him now, does he look like he got really scared?

The one that really got scared is clearly that giant python!

Zhou Tao, feeling not too bad, rarely started joking with Ye Chen.

He shouted from a distance: "Ye Chen, do you know that you are fishing for a national second-class protected animal?"

Ye Chen was taken aback on the shore, turned his head, and saw that familiar officer had come back.

Then he pointed at the giant python, his face full of shock, and said: "What? This thing is a national second-class protected animal?"

As Zhou Tao walked towards Ye Chen, he looked at the giant python.

Indeed.

Seeing it in person versus in the live stream room felt completely different.

This five-meter-long giant python looked really intimidating in reality.

It’s hard to imagine what kind of shocking scene it would be if the ten-meter-long giant python in Jinbao District appeared.

When Zhou Tao reached Ye Chen, he said: "I’m telling you, do you even know what you fished up?"

Ye Chen scratched his head and naively smiled: "Isn’t this an eel? This is the first giant thing I’ve ever caught!"

Standing opposite Ye Chen, Zhou Tao couldn’t help but roll his eyes and said impatiently: "Stop beating around the bush with me."

"I’m telling you, I saw you hitting it just now!"

"Do you know how much psychological trauma that can cause it? Besides..."

"Are eels this big?"

"This is a python! Also called a Water Python!"

"So that’s how it is..." Ye Chen let out a sigh of relief and pretended to be suddenly enlightened.

Seeing this, Zhou Tao couldn’t help but roll his eyes at him: "Stop pretending, I was just joking with you, this Water Python isn’t a second-class protected animal."

Hearing this, Ye Chen pouted: "I say, officer, why do you always scare people?"

"I was so angry that I slapped it a few times; I thought I caught a fish, who knew it would be this thing!"

"If I had known it was a protected animal, I would have released it right away, wouldn’t I?"

At this, Zhou Tao’s face revealed a sly smile: "So you admit you slapped it just now?"

Hearing this, Ye Chen’s eyes twitched fiercely.

Seeing this, Zhou Tao laughed.

"This Water Python, it’s not a national second-class protected animal, it’s a national first-class protected animal, you might really be in deep trouble now!"

Looking at Zhou Tao’s teasing expression, Ye Chen also realized that he was joking with him.

Even so, Ye Chen still explained: "Officer, that Water Python was baring its fangs and brandishing its claws at me just now, it clearly wanted to eat me!"

"This was an emergency avoidance!"

Hearing this, Zhou Tao shook his head helplessly: "You really talk too much..."

"I won’t chat with you anymore, I came back this time just to tell you that the Water Python is indeed a national first-class protected animal."

"You won’t be able to take it away in your keepnet, hand it over to the relevant department later."

Ye Chen quickly asked: "What about that little Water Snake in my keepnet?"

Zhou Tao explained, "Water Snake and Water Python are not the same species; you can do whatever you want with the Water Snake."

Hearing this, Ye Chen couldn’t help but mutter quietly, "I knew it, I guessed this would be the outcome. I knew catching this thing would be useless."

"What did you say?" Zhou Tao raised his eyebrows, curiously staring at Ye Chen.

"I was wondering, if I turn in this Water Python, are there any rewards?"

Zhou Tao slapped his forehead and shook his head, "No!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen immediately sighed, saying with a frustrated face, "After all the effort I put into catching this, there’s no benefit at all, sigh..."

Just as Ye Chen was complaining.

Zhou Tao, standing opposite him, suddenly walked forward with a mysterious look and whispered.

"Young man, I know a place where there’s a ten-meter giant python. If you can catch it..."

"How about I give you a banner?"

"You can write whatever you want on the banner, how about that?"

"Interested in challenging yourself?"

After hearing Zhou Tao’s words, Ye Chen was taken aback and looked at Zhou Tao suspiciously.

"What did you say? Catch what?"

Zhou Tao, looking at the giant python hooked by its mouth on the riverbank, smacked his lips, "I mean catching the Water Python!"

Having said that, he looked at Ye Chen with a surprised expression.

Did he speak too softly just now, and this kid didn’t hear him?

The next second, Ye Chen’s expression turned ugly. Pointing at himself, he earnestly said, "I’m a fisherman, and you’re asking me to catch a snake?"

"Though I haven’t caught any fish yet, it doesn’t mean my fishing skills or dignity should be insulted!"

"I won’t go, no matter what!"

Zhou Tao paused, completely not expecting such a big change in Ye Chen’s attitude.

But soon, he understood why this guy looked so miserable.

Indeed...

Ye Chen is still a fisherman.

Zhou Tao, who also used to be a fisherman, could truly understand Ye Chen’s feelings at this moment.

You can call fishermen short, poor, and goofy, but you cannot call a fisherman an "air force commander"!

Because fishermen are not air force, it’s the last dignity of a fisherman!

Just now, knowing that Ye Chen hadn’t caught any fish and finally caught a Water Python after so much effort.

And then asking him to continue fishing for Water Pythons.

Speaking of which, it indeed seemed a bit insulting.

Indeed...

Even if this guy was considered "air force", he also had his limits.

He had been careless!

Because although Ye Chen had not caught a fish, he had always been striving in the path of fishing; that never changed.

Isn’t this the most respectable trait of an outstanding fisherman?

Just when Zhou Tao was moved by this spirit in Ye Chen, Ye Chen suddenly spoke.

This time, Ye Chen’s tone had changed a lot compared to before, and his expression was quite flattering.

"Of course, the most important thing is..."

Saying this, Ye Chen rubbed his fingers.

Seeing this, Zhou Tao’s mouth twitched fiercely.

Was this kid hinting for money?

Sure enough, just as Zhou Tao thought, the next second, the words from Ye Chen almost choked him with his own saliva.
