The Anomalous Affairs Bureau had made thorough arrangements. Since this mission would take place far out at sea, where conditions were complicated, a helicopter would also be available to pick them up if an emergency arose.
The boat operator was also an experienced special forces soldier, the sort who could fend for himself even if dumped on a deserted island.
[Whoa, this guy's got a nice body. Look at that muscle definition.]
[His looks aren't exactly stunning, but he has such an upright air.]
[Why do I feel like he doesn't really look like a fisherman?]
[You thirsty girls.]
[Um... I'm a guy.]
While the viewers discussed the fisherman's physique, the five of them followed him along the connecting walkway at the pier and boarded the speedboat, which swayed gently with the waves.
The sky was clear and the sea calm today. The speedboat rocked only slightly, not violently, so everyone adjusted well.
The fisherman pointed to the life jackets piled inside the cabin. "I drive hard. Put these on first."
Of the five, Mu Xingchen and Lin Hanzhi could swim.
Qi Gu was the first to step forward and take a life jacket. As he put it on, he addressed the drone. "Considering that the people who drown are the ones who can swim, remember to wear a life jacket whenever you go near the water. That way, even if a water ghost tries to drag you down, it'll have to put in more effort. If you run into one that hates hassle, it'll just let you go."
[...Wait, Gugu, you really do know a bit of everything.]
[I feel like Gugu would be exactly like that if he became a water ghost.]
[Ummm, if he became a water ghost, he probably wouldn't even surface.]
[There's nothing tasty underwater.
