The Fisherman Who Never Catches Fish-Chapter 188 - 135 Rest assured, I don’t hold grudges... Damn it, blow it up!!! (Subscribe please)_2
"Get lost, you damn Gaijin."
...
After the meal full of sardines, it was just too delicious.
Why don’t those fish eat such fresh sardines?
Fang Hao couldn’t figure it out.
Why just won’t these fish bite his hook?
Can’t I just catch a Tuna to satisfy the thrill of catching a fish?
Not asking for a big one, just give me one that’s a few dozen pounds.
Now Fang Hao only had three sardines left in his hand.
If he didn’t catch anything this time, he was ready to call it a day and head home for some rest.
So he was all the more eager to catch a fish with these last three bait.
But before that, Fang Hao decided to take a break.
He just finished eating and was feeling sleepy.
Yawned.
Fang Hao comfortably lay on the deck, then moved the torpedo to use it as a pillow.
This scene left everyone watching absolutely dumbfounded.
This is really awesome.
The host is totally treating the torpedo like a toy, using it as a chair at one moment and as a pillow the next.
Could it be that the torpedo really won’t explode?
Everyone was curious.
They watched Fang Hao sleep on the deck for over half an hour, and those in the livestream spent half an hour watching too.
One by one, they got sleepy, but no one left; they all stayed in the livestream room.

And not only did the viewership not drop, it actually increased, attracting more people to watch him sleep.
Viewership in the livestream room directly broke fifteen million.
When Fang Hao woke up.
A voice echoed in his mind.
[Congratulations, host’s livestream room viewership has broken through fifteen million, rewarded with a Black Gold Treasure Box.]
Here comes another reward.
This time it’s a reward from the system for breaking fifteen million viewers.
When Fang Hao heard the sound of the reward, he was also surprised.
He just took a nap, didn’t he? How did the viewership go up?
Could it be that these viewers have some sort of peculiar fetish?
They love watching people sleep?
The netizens’ tastes are really something.
"I just counted, the host yawned seventeen times and turned over four times."
"???, Dude, your focus is really special."
"Awesome."
"While watching the host sleep just now, I almost fell asleep myself, he really slept soundly."
"I fell asleep too, just woke up."
"Sleepiness is really contagious. I strongly suggest the host also livestream when he sleeps at night, it would be a blessing to us who suffer from insomnia."
Fang Hao could barely keep up with these viewers’ thought processes.
Fang Hao didn’t bother with them anymore and stored the awarded item in the System Space.
It’s not really possible to open the Treasure Chest in front of so many people in the livestream room.
After waking up, he felt much more comfortable.
Stretched a big lazy stretch.
Fang Hao was ready to continue fishing.
This time he only had three sardines left.
One rod per sardine, this would be his last attempt.
If he doesn’t catch a fish this time, he would just have to end this trip.
He picked up the fishing rod that he rested before, went through the familiar motions, baiting, casting, and lowering the fishing line.
He repeated the same actions for all three fishing rods, now all set up.
And back to fishing he went.
Xiao Pang and Old Ye, on the other hand, were feeling a bit better now.
It seemed like since the torpedo hadn’t shown any signs of explosion for so long, they were somewhat reassured and dared to come closer.
But now there was no extra bait left, so they weren’t continuing to fish and just watched Fang Hao do it.
They’d wait for Fang Hao to finish, then head back early to deal with the torpedo.
Being on the same boat with a torpedo was always a safety hazard.
It’s like a ticking time bomb, no one knows when it might explode.
This fishing trip was really too thrilling, almost a bit too much so.
It was even more intense than the last time they went out to sea.
Last time, they were chased by a foreign vessel and almost capsized.
This time, they caught a torpedo while fishing, and no one knew if it would explode...
Their hearts just couldn’t take the stress any longer.
They definitely needed to go back and recuperate, to take a breather.
And while Fang Hao was fishing.
A Coast Guard Ship was slowly making its way toward them.
"The Coast Guard uncles are finally here!"
Spotting the Coast Guard Ship, the audience member who had offered to call the police immediately felt energized.
Now they no longer had to worry about the safety of everyone on board with Fang Hao.
After the Coast Guard Ship approached Fang Hao’s vessel, they too noticed the torpedo sitting on the deck... and immediately tensed up.
This was a torpedo.
The bane of naval vessels.
If it were to explode, this little fishing boat would hardly withstand the blast.
They had also received the distress call, and rushed over here as fast as they could.
But after all, the sea is vast, and responding to emergencies at sea isn’t like on land; it doesn’t just take a few to several minutes.
Even with Fang Hao’s coordinates and moving as fast as they could, it still took some time to arrive.
At first, when they received the distress call, they thought it might be a prank and confirmed it several times. Only after several more calls did they realize it was real.
Seeing the Coast Guard officers arrive, Xiao Pang and the others felt an urge to cry.
They could finally escape the danger of the torpedo.
The Coast Guard sent boarding personnel, including a bomb disposal expert to inspect the torpedo, while others gathered information and verified details from Fang Hao and his crew.
Including confirming their identities.
The fact that they had managed to catch a torpedo was very surprising to the Coast Guard.
The torpedo weighed at least a thousand pounds; how did they manage to reel it in?
"Did you really catch this yourself?"
The Coast Guard officer looked at Fang Hao in astonishment.
This weighed at least a thousand pounds; could a man really pull up the fishing rod?
Fang Hao still wore an innocuous expression, "Yes, I initially thought it was a big fish, but it turned out to be a torpedo."
"But this thing is really heavy; I barely managed to pull it up because I’m quite strong."
Barely managed?
The audience in the live stream nearly rolled their eyes, clearly, you didn’t seem to struggle that much.
Speaking of which, everyone started to notice Fang Hao’s strength... it seemed to be even greater than they had imagined.
How strong must one be to pull up something weighing over a thousand pounds?
He must be a reincarnation of a Hercules!
"The torpedo’s detonator has been removed, but due to prolonged immersion in seawater, the detonator has been rendered inactive. So, even if it wasn’t removed, it wouldn’t have functioned. Additionally, the body of the torpedo is stable and there is no immediate threat of it exploding."
The bomb disposal expert reported the situation after checking the torpedo.
"Did you remove this detonator?"
The bomb disposal expert looked at Fang Hao.
Fang Hao nodded, "Yes."
"You’re quite lucky, having encountered a deactivated detonator. Otherwise, with your method, you would’ve set off the torpedo while attempting to dismantle it."
The bomb disposal expert said, implying that the dismantling technique clearly wasn’t done by a professional.
This revelation sweated Xiao Pang and Lao Ye out thoroughly.
It felt as if they had just taken a walk through the gates of hell.
Only Fang Hao remained completely calm, as he had been certain there was no danger before he removed the detonator.
He also had the Mechanical Eye, which allowed him to monitor the condition of the torpedo and know the detonator was ineffective.
So, he wasn’t worried about an explosion.
If there had been any threat of explosion, Fang Hao wouldn’t have heroically left the torpedo on the deck; he would have tossed it back into the sea immediately.
He simply figured there was no immediate danger from the torpedo and that it was best to deal with it if possible.
"I won’t be so reckless next time."
But of course, he had to say that.
"Right, these things are very dangerous, not something you should handle."
"Alright, we’ll take this torpedo away for disposal now."
The Coast Guard brought a small boat, placed the torpedo on it,
and prepared to find an uninhabited area of the sea to detonate the torpedo.
Once the Coast Guard had taken the torpedo away, this incident was finally brought to a close.
Xiao Pang, Lao Ye, and Captain Shi Fu could truly relax, no longer haunted by the threat of the torpedo.
They all slumped onto the deck of the boat, exhaling deeply.
It felt like they had cheated death.
