Going out to sea at night is not uncommon.
Fish have phototaxis. In the dark, fish will converge towards the light source. Some fishermen will also choose to go to sea at night.
But after hearing the village chief mention it, going out to sea at night seemed a bit suspicious.
"Let's go! Let's buy a fishing net. It's so profitable!"
The happy voices behind them hadn't stopped yet, and they were discussing enthusiastically.
Anxi glanced back at them, turned around and followed the three people who were waiting for her.
…
…
Night falls.
The fishing boats that went out to sea have returned to the shore.
Anxi observed the four-handed fish baby in the bucket in her hut.
Li Zihua stood aside with a notebook and pen, always ready to record.
Chu Qingyan and Bai Linya stood by the window and waited quietly.
This fish baby is stronger than the other fish babies. It has been out of the sea for so long, and it is still flapping its tail vigorously.
But just by looking at it, you can't tell why.
Anxi stared at her rubber-gloved hands, and after mentally preparing herself, she suddenly reached into the bucket and pulled out the four-handed fish baby.
"Aaaahhhhh!" Yuying cried.
Anthy balled up the towel and stuffed it into its mouth.
Yuying couldn't cry, and his two small hands on his chest and back began to struggle constantly, trying to escape from Anxi's hands.
An Qian endured the slippery touch of the fish baby and looked through it, but found nothing unusual.
She looked at Yubao's smooth and slightly bulging belly.
It seems that we can only cut it open and take a look.
An Qian stretched out her hand to Li Zihua beside her: "Nurse Li, bring me the knife."
"..." Li Zihua looked around confusedly, pointed a finger at himself and said in surprise: "Are you talking to me?"
Anxi replied decisively: "Otherwise, you stand by my side now."
"In this case, do you still have the heart to joke?"
Li Zihua said this, but he consciously took a fruit knife and handed it to An Qian, saying solemnly: "Here you are, Doctor An."
An Qian took the knife, pinched the fish baby's neck with one hand to restrict its movement, and put the knife against its belly with the other hand.
"Woooooooooo!" The fish baby was gagged, but it still made a muffled cry. It sensed the danger and struggled fiercely. Its two small hands kept slapping Anxi's neck around it. hand.
"Do it quickly!" Li Zihua urged, but he blocked the notebook in front of his eyes so as not to look at it.
A drop of sweat dropped from Anxi's forehead, and her hands trembled slightly.
She usually doesn't dare to kill fish, and now she is even more reluctant to kill a baby that looks very similar to a baby.
"Let me do it."
Chu Qingyan walked over from the window, took the fruit knife from An Qian's hand without saying a word, and stabbed the fish head through the fish baby with a pop.
"Woooooooooo!" After the fish baby let out a fierce cry, it fluttered twice and stopped moving.
Chu Qingyan had no expression on his face and continued to raise and lower the knife.
The belly of the fish baby was opened, revealing the bright red internal organs and the soft intestines.
An Qian quickly took out another fish baby from the water, pressed it on the ground, and said to Chu Qingyan: "Take a look at the normal fish baby and compare it."
"Yes." Chu Qingyan responded, and used the same technique to quickly dig open the other fish baby.
Bright red blood and internal organs flowed all over the floor. An Qian held back her nausea and pulled off Li Zihua's clothes: "Ugh... look at the difference between these two fishes."
Li Zihua blocked the notebook in front of his eyes and refused: "You can read it, I won't read it."
"Didn't you come here because you said you wanted to record the biological characteristics of the fish babies? Now you don't want to watch it because you think it's bloody? What about your dedication to science?"
An Qian's words made the timid Li Zihua hesitate. He put down his notebook quietly, but as soon as he saw the sticky internal organs and the fish baby's eyes that lost their light, he immediately retched uncontrollably. Voice.
"Ugh... I, uh... I really can't do it..." Li Zihua kept retching and quickly ran to the window and opened it to get some air.
Bai Linya was worried that she wouldn't stick to Chu Qingyan because of the fishy smell, so she stood two steps behind Yuying.
She glanced with disdain at Li Zihua who stuck his head out the window to breathe in the fresh air: "You are too weak."
Anxi looked at his weak back and shook her head and sighed: "It's really useless."
She turned back and observed the two fish babies on the ground.
Ordinary fish babies are smaller than four-handed fish babies, so their internal organs are also smaller.
Other than that, I didn't see any other differences.
So why is this fish sold so expensively?
An Qian used correction fluid to touch the body of the fish baby, but the correction fluid only indicated that it was a mutated fish baby, and there was not much information other than that.
She thought of the village chief's words that the fish baby tasted delicious.
Perhaps the secret of the mutated fish baby can only be known after it matures.
Thinking of this, Anxi stood up, picked up the pot on the stove, filled it with water, then picked up the baby fish on the ground and threw it into the pot.
Turn on the heat and close the lid.
A pot of fish baby soup is boiling.
Because the blood and internal organs of the fish babies were not cleaned, only a strong fishy smell filled the house.
Li Zihua, who was feeling better, tilted his head and retched outside the window. An Qian also pinched her nose to feel nauseated.
But as the water gradually boiled, in addition to the fishy smell, a delicious smell overflowed from the pot, making people unable to help but salivate.
Gradually, the water in the pot continued to boil, and even the fishy smell disappeared, leaving only the alluring fragrance that penetrated into the nose.
Anxi is closest to the pot.
Her nostrils were filled with the delicious smell of fish soup.
The smell is weird. It's obviously just the normal fish soup smell when I work in a restaurant, not so strong.
But even though she knew something was strange, Anxi couldn't help but twitch her nose and swallow her saliva.
The aroma of this fish soup not only whetted her appetite but also gave her a feeling of ecstasy as long as she took a sip.
It was as if all the pressure had been thrown away, and I could lie down in a comfortable quilt with ease. There was no fear, no fear, only endless happiness and irresistible impulses.
I really want to take a sip.
It smells so good and tastes even better.
Her brain was confused by the aroma. Anxi had a spoon in her hand. She opened the lid of the pot and put the spoon in.
"Bang!" The spoon was suddenly knocked away.
An Qian's eyes became clear for a moment, and she found Li Zihua standing in front of her, holding her nose.
But after inhaling the scent again, Anxi's eyes became confused again.
Li Zihua panicked. He looked around. Except for him, the other three people were gathered around the pot of soup unconsciously.
He also smelled the aroma of soup, but since his head had been outside the window most of the time, the aroma didn't affect him that badly.
The aroma was weird, and the first priority was to ruin the pot of soup.
Li Zihua tried his best to squeeze in between the three of them, and put one end of the pot into the pool next to the gas stove.
Before the scent dissipated, he turned on the faucet, and the cold water washed over the cooked fish meat and blood-pink soup.
The fragrance in the air gradually faded.
The three people gathered around the pot woke up and looked at each other in confusion.
"This... this fish soup." An Qian looked at the little fish soup left on the spoon in her hand. She couldn't remember what she had done just now. She only remembered that the fish soup was delicious and she was very greedy.
"There's a big problem with this fish soup." Li Zihua pushed up his glasses and described what happened in the room just now.
If it weren't for his quick eyesight and quick hands, Anxi and the three of them would have eaten a pot of bloody fish soup as a delicacy.
Li Zihua couldn't help bragging about his quick eyesight and quick reflexes.
But the next second.
"Is there anyone there?" There was a knock on the wooden door suddenly.
The inexplicable fragrance spread quietly in the room and began to attract people.
