This Damned Thirst for Survival
chapter-105

When he said that, Officer Lam hadn’t reacted, “Oh oh oh, the leader of the blood eels, right, this is the fish, right?”

Officer Lin walked up to the bound male fish, spun around a few times in wonder and covered his nose, “My God, why is it so fishy.”

“You misunderstand,” Jiang Luo calmly patted Li Sha’s shoulder again, “the leader of the blood eels I’m talking about is this one.”

Everyone standing around who heard this was frozen in their tracks, including their own people.

Li Sha looked up at Jiang Luo as if she didn’t understand, and tilted her head to say, “Brother?”

Jiang Luo smiled gently down at her, “Don’t be afraid, brother will be able to lock you up soon.”

When he had finished, he looked at the police officer, “Officer Lam, you prepare a heavily guarded room.”

Officer Lin looked at Li Sha and then at Jiang Luo and hesitantly said, “Is there some kind of misunderstanding?”

Li Sha’s eyes widened and she stepped back in fear until she was in front of Wen Renlian, grabbing Wen Renlian’s shirt and sobbing, “Sister, I’m scared.”

Wen Renlian gave her a deep look and gently took her hand in his, “It’s okay.”

As soon as Li Sha was slightly reassured, the next moment Wen Renlian pulled Li Sha’s hands down, tying both of them behind her back in an unprepared manner.

Li Sha looked back at him incredulously as Wen Renlian curled his lips, “I’m so sorry, I trust my friends more.”

Cheng Li exclaimed, “She’s the leader of the blood eels?”

Cheng Li’s face twisted at the thought of his wife and daughter’s death, and he stared at Li Sha with hatred in his eyes, “Did you kill my wife and daughter?”

He was about to go forward with his fist in his hand, which frightened Officer Lin, who threw his little book in his hand and tugged him back. Don’t be impulsive!”

Ye Xun silently found a bundle of rope on the ground and touched Lu Youyi, the two men came forward to tie Li Sha, Lu Youyi laughed twice in embarrassment, ” Li Sha, don’t worry, we will be gentle.”

Li Sha looked at them blankly and suddenly lowered her head. Her shoulders shook and her sobs faded, and even Cheng Li stopped somewhat hesitantly, looking at Jiang Luo at a loss for words: “Is there really a mistake?”

As soon as the words were spoken, the tied up male suddenly stirred and fought his way out of the rope and lunged at Wen Renlian. In the nick of time, a Jin Guang tiger appeared out of nowhere, prepared to bite down on the male, and with a violent swing of his head, he was thrown to the other side.

“Roar-” the male tiger lowered its voice to a low roar, its powerful limbs causing the ground to tremble slightly as it pounced again, viciously tearing the blood eel’s limbs off.

The male wailed and Yin Hu spat the fishy meat out of his mouth, seeing the male tremble in pain and unable to fight any longer, before walking with graceful cat steps to Jiang Luo’s side, bringing the tiger’s head to Jiang Luo’s hand and sticking his tongue out in resignation, “Yeow.”

It’s the smell of blood eel that’s fishying it up.

The Snake is calm and steady, with a vicious and aggressive stance. The Yin Hu is fierce, domineering and pampered, while the Rat is timid and intelligent, with a knack for escaping and protecting his food.

At times, Jiang Luo feels that they are living creatures, not twelve curses inscribed on a ring of yin and yang.

Jiang Luo rubbed Yin Hu’s head and looked at Li Sha with a smirk, “What a pity that the last male fish is useless.”

Li Sha reared her head, her delicate face becoming expressionless, her black curls falling around her ears as she looked grimly at Jiang Luo , “How did you find out.”

“It didn’t feel right a long time ago,” Jiang Luo shrugged, “whether it was the story you made up or not, there were just too many holes. A little girl who was unloved by her father and often domestically abused by him would miss such a father? You were only eight years old, yet you survived unscathed on a ship full of blood eels, and knew their weaknesses, their secrets, and deliberately pretended not to give me that information, coincidentally showing up around us several times for one purpose – to get us to take you ashore. Your handiwork was also involved in making our departure from the Angonese so smooth, wasn’t it?”

He takes a step towards Li Sha, with Yin Hu at his heels. At the side of the tall and powerful tiger, the dark-haired young man’s aura is not lost, and his brow is full of sharpness.

“When you were rescued from the sea by the crew two years ago, you weren’t Li Sha anymore, were you, but a female blood eel that ran away from the depths where you burrowed into Li Sha’s mind and took control of her consciousness?”

Jiang Luo shook his head to himself, “It’s more than that. There are three kinds of people on board, the rich, the poor and the crew, and you belong to the third category, but there is not a single child among the crew, let alone a single girl. Are the blood eels like the ants and bees, with a queen and a queen to oversee everything?”

Li Sha looked at him quietly, her resentful eyes gradually calming as she smiled sweetly, her tiny dimples dimpling at the corners of her lips, “Brother, you are so clever.”

Jiang Luo walked up to her, originally wanting to bend down, and just as his waist was leaning down, he stiffened and stood up straight again. Standing tall, he said, “Brother also has a question for you, why did you go ashore?”

“And,” he said with interest, “you seem to be a little different from the other blood eels. Even when we killed them all, you didn’t budge a bit.”

“Because I’m not like them,” Li Sha said calmly, “if blood eels are an evolving species, they are a half-finished product that has failed to evolve, and I am a finished product that has succeeded. I can manipulate blood eels, and I can fuse perfectly with human bodies and brains. Look at the crew members whose bodies have been taken over by males, the rich whose consciousness has been controlled by females. ”

Li Sha looked up proudly, “But look at me, my eyes are still human eyes, my teeth are human teeth, I have human intelligence, those ordinary and ugly blood eels, if they are killed, they are killed, they are just a chicken feed to me, they are too stupid.”

Lu Youyi and Ye Xun had already tied her up, but Li Sha let them do so without a struggle, her eyes looking expectantly at Jiang Luo, waiting for him to continue asking her questions.

Jiang Luo asked, “So what, why did you want to go ashore even at the expense of a boatload of bloody eels?”

The police, armed with guns, slowly surrounded Li Sha in a semi-circle situation.

Li Sha sighed, but said, “I blame you humans for that.”

Officer Lam couldn’t help but frown and ask, “What do you mean?”

The bound Li Sha pads her toes and whines cutely, “It’s all because you keep salvaging the fish in the sea that you get us on board and let us meet humans. It’s because you were so greedy and wanted to hunt us that we discovered that, wow, humans are so delicious that even our eggs like to hatch in your bellies!”

She shrugged like Jiang Luo, “So it’s all because of yourselves that so many of you will die. You can eat the fish, why can’t the fish eat you?”

Lu Youyi froze, his brain stuck, “It seems, it seems to make sense?”

Zhuo Zhongqiu immediately woke him up with a slap on the wrist.

Jiang Luo pointed out without a ripple, “You haven’t answered my question.”

“I’m sorry.” Li Sha spat out her tongue.

Since her identity was revealed, her personality has become lively, and she has completely lost the pathetic pathos of her performance.

Li Sha said, “I want to go ashore because I have bigger ambitions, of course.”

“Humans can go to sea, of course the fish want to go ashore too. Those female fish that control the consciousness of the rich have to listen to me, I can do so much more with them,” Li Sha said as if she was holding her breath, her mouth kept palleting everything out, “I had a particularly perfect plan, you caught the ‘leader’ of the blood eels I could have gone ashore with no stain at all, using the land as my ‘fish pond’ and humans as the fish in that ‘pond’. But now, it’s all ruined by you, brother-”

Jiang Luo laughed, “I’m sorry about that.”

Li Sha sighed in an old-fashioned way.

“Never mind,” she said with a sudden broad smile, “I’ve finished, brothers and sisters, so I’ll see you next time.”

With that, she abruptly leapt over the railing and out the door!

Beyond the railing was the sea, and if the leader of the blood eels was allowed to return to the sea, the result would be unthinkable! Everyone’s hearts clenched as the police rushed over and held out their hands, already shouting out in horror, “Stop her!”

But the next moment, Li Sha, who had gone over the railing without touching the sea, looked up in confusion and followed her wrist. There was a rope wrapped around her wrist, and at the end of it was Jiang Luo’s face, so pretty that the fish loved it.

Pretty Brother smiled and said, “Where do you want to go?”

Kuang Zheng pulled Li Sha back as quickly as he could.

Li Sha fluttered in his arms and struggled, “No, no, no! Get off me!”

Kuang Zheng hugged her firmly, Officer Lin’s arms and legs went limp, his lifted heart fell back hard and he felt like he could breathe properly again, he pulled his colleague next to him and said weakly, “Quickly, go prepare a room!”

Five minutes later, Li Sha was locked up.

When the dust had settled, Jiang Luo was finally able to take a shower. He stretched and followed the staff back to his room, patting Cheng Li on the shoulder as he passed him, “Brother Cheng, come here at eleven o’clock at night, we’ll invoke your soul.”

Cheng Li, who had been frozen as early as when Yin Hu was revealed, came back to his senses in a trance, repeating several times under his breath, “Invocation? Invocation ……”

When he understood the meaning of those two words, he jerked back to his senses and looked towards them in horror.

The group of young men had already hooked up and walked away.

*

Before they even got back inside, Jiang Luo was pulled in by survivors and thanked hundreds of times.

“Thank you so much, it’s a good thing we have you to save this life.”

There are elderly people, middle-aged people and more young men and women.

Everyone’s faces looked like they had survived the hijacking, wiping tears from their eyes in twos and threes. Jiang Luo could not tell you how many people shook his hand to thank him, and when he turned his head, so did his friends. Not far away, there were people praising the police officers.

“These boys are amazing, really amazing! If it wasn’t for them we wouldn’t have made it out alive, they killed several of those monsters. Jiang Luo had a good ear and heard two or three rich men surrounding a policeman who kept bragging on their behalf, “Comrade policeman, such young men must be rewarded, we’ll pay the prize, and they’d better be on TV! Let them be interviewed and made famous, it will be good for the future.”

The police comrade smiled bitterly, “The matter of the blood eels cannot be revealed to the general public. You will also have to sign a confidentiality agreement with us afterwards, and as for the prize money, the state will reward anyone who has helped the country and the people.”

Jiang Luo listened to a few sentences and then stopped listening, and it was another ten minutes before he returned to his room.

As soon as the door was closed, the noise from outside was reduced to a cacophony. Jiang Luo inspected the bathroom, which was not as comfortable as the Angonese’s luxury suite, but no less equipped.

Once he was sure that hot water was available, Jiang Luo began to undress.

But as soon as his hands touched the hem of his coat, he paused. First he summoned Yin Hu and asked it to guard the door for him.

Pushing the pampered tiger’s head away, Jiang Luo reiterated solemnly, “Don’t let any people or animals get in here, okay? Even if it’s a mouse, a fly.”

Yin Hu crouched slowly by the door, his tail wagging lazily, “Ow.”

Jiang Luo smiled, “Good boy.”

Jiang Luo is relieved that Yin Hu is here. He eagerly takes off his dirty clothes and throws them in the corner. When he takes off his trousers, Jiang Luo looks so stiff that he does not want to look down.

The fishy smell obscured that smell, but just because onlookers couldn’t smell it, didn’t mean he couldn’t.

What’s more, after a few hours, everything that needs to be done is fucking done.

Jiang Luo enters the bathroom with an expressionless face.

Outside, Yin Hu yawned as a gust of wind burst through the door. The wind was invisible, but it made Yin Hu tilt her head and look at it for a few moments.

Not people, not animals, not flies and rats.

Yin Hu tail twitching, not bothered.

The gust of wind burrowed noiselessly into the bathroom.
