Plop! Plop!
The big fish flopped back and forth, as if trying to swallow the fish hook.
Seeing this, Brother Wan hastily stepped forward to retrieve the hook.
The fish was too large, and with Wan Hai's age, it was impossible not only to retrieve the hook but even to hold down the big fish.
Rip—
The middle-aged man suddenly gave a powerful yank, as if exerting a force of a thousand pounds, instantly wrenching the fish hook out with brute strength.
Along with the fish hook, foul-smelling liquid and shattered flesh flew out.
The big fish floundered a few times, then remained motionless.
Wan Hai too remained motionless, splattered in the face with liquid and bits of flesh.
"Why struggle in vain."
The middle-aged man said calmly, casting the fish hook, now adorned with the flesh of the big fish, back into the lake.
It seemed he was speaking about the fish, yet it also felt like he was implying something else.
"By the way, what were you asking for just now?"
