"Hey, young man! If we don't go back this late, our families will be worried.
Could you send a boat to take us back?
We're all fishermen from around Pinghai. Just send us back to Pinghai County."
When Ye Yuan arrived at the room where the fish thieves were being temporarily held,
the burly man at the head of the group spoke with an honest, simple look on his face.
It had to be said, the guy put on quite a convincing act.
If Ye Yuan had not already known what these people were really like, he might actually have been fooled.
However, Ye Yuan also noticed that among the dozen or so people, two of them were clearly feeling guilty.
The expressions on their faces were extremely unnatural.
They formed a stark contrast with the foolishly honest looks of the people standing at the front.
"You can't leave for now. I've called the police for you.
A fishing boat sinking isn't a minor matter. Don't worry, the officers will be here soon."
Ye Yuan smiled and shook his head.
"Uh..."
The man at the head of the group had not expected the people on Fishing Bay Island to call the police.
"There's no need to make such a fuss, right? Our fishing boat is insured. We can just deal with the insurance company. The police don't handle this sort of thing at all!"
The man still tried to persuade Ye Yuan.
Although he looked as though nothing was wrong, he was actually terrified inside.
While Ye Yuan was talking to them, Li Hui came in with several people carrying food.
"Brother Zhao! Have something to eat first and fill your stomachs.
You swam such a long way in the middle of the night. You must be exhausted, right?"
