Chapter 81 The Person Without a Home

Under the sun, there are no secrets to keep, and news of the finless porpoises' discovery spread that very night.

Early the next morning, Wang Jian She personally led a team to the shores of Shuijun Lake.

Along with them came two large trucks, loaded with a plethora of various materials and equipment.

"Su, well done!" Thankfully, Wang Jian She wasn't in the habit of patting people on the shoulders and came up to give Su Ming a firm handshake.

"It's all thanks to Mr. Wang's excellent guidance," Su Ming replied in a quiet chuckle.

Wang Jian She also smiled. Looking around to ensure there were no outsiders, he said, "You've done well, lad. You've made a significant contribution this time. Do you have any requests?"

Now that Wang Hao was following Su Ming, he had an easy time earning tens of thousands a month without much to do, and with Su Ming's significant achievement, it also helped Wang Jian She's career. Naturally, Wang Jian She wouldn't be stingy in giving Su Ming some leeway in certain areas.

Upon reflection, Su Ming realized he didn't have any immediate 'requests'.

Not to say he had none at all, but the timing wasn't right. For major policies, even if Wang Jian She approved them, Su Ming currently lacked the capacity to handle them. Moreover, it wasn't worth wasting the favor for some trifling advantage.

"Young man, look further ahead," Wang Jian She said profoundly as he glanced over the mountains behind Shuijun Lake. "Chairman Mao said, 'There is much to do in this vast world.'"

Su Ming just smiled and replied, "Then I will need more guidance from the leadership in the future!"

At the edge of Shuijun Lake, Professor Chu and Mr. Song had already begun setting up equipment with their teams, establishing a temporary rescue shelter in the shallows to start treatment.

The police station dispatched two chiefs and several assistant police officers who cordoned off a large area. A group of zoo staff with nothing else to do gathered outside the cordon, pointing and chatting about the porpoises in the water.

On the lake, a few sporadic boaters were drawn over, rowing closer and craning their necks to see.

A crowd of journalists, having somehow learned of the news, appeared lakeside with their cameras at the ready.

"May I ask, who discovered the finless porpoises?"

"Hello, I'm a reporter with Daily News. Are these porpoises wild?"

"Mr. Wang, Mr. Wang, may I ask..."

Wang Jian She waved cheerfully at the reporters, saying, "Dear members of the press, the finless porpoise is an important protected species in our country, critically endangered. This time, with the assistance of the Yangchuan City Zoo and the Agricultural Science Academy, we've discovered three wild finless porpoises all at once, which is unprecedented! Currently, the porpoises need treatment. Therefore, Professor Chu and Mr. Song are not available for interviews. The porpoises are severely injured, so please refrain from rushing to take their pictures to avoid causing secondary harm!"

During his days of recuperation in the hospital, Zhou Jin not only thought about starting a family but also used the rare downtime to calmly reflect on the recent series of "accidents".

The bald man being injured repeatedly, the loss of the fish fry, including this time nearly being killed by the big fish—all these incidents, while lacking evidence, made Zhou Jin, with his years of experience in the underworld, feel that they were not mere coincidences.

As for enemies, he had many, but somehow, he couldn't help but suspect Suming.

Ever since that kid showed up, strange things had been happening one after another.

"Comrade Su Ming, I hear you work at the zoo. In just a little over a month, you've been honored as an outstanding employee. This time at Huating Reservoir, you risked your personal safety to save the Yangtze River dolphins..."

Suming, Huating Reservoir, Yangtze River dolphins—these keywords immediately caught Zhou Jin's attention. He struggled to turn his head slightly and glanced at the television out of the corner of his eye.

On TV, the familiar young man was wearing a sunny smile that made Zhou Jin's teeth itch with hatred.

"It's him! What happened at the reservoir, and what's this about the Yangtze River dolphins?!"

Zhou Jin quickly called for the nurse and had her dial the bald man's number.

Over the phone, the bald man recounted the events to Zhou Jin.

Zhou Jin's face grew increasingly dark, his heart bleeding inwardly.

The one that had bumped into him was the Yangtze River dolphin, and there were three of them to boot!

If he had gotten his hands on them and secretly sold them to some foreign collectors, that would have been no small sum!

If the Yangtze River dolphins had been found elsewhere, so be it, but those dolphins were found in the reservoir where they had grown up eating his fish, and they had nearly cost him his life!

They should have been his!

If only he had held on for a bit longer without passing out, if only he had directed the bald man and the others to capture those dolphins...

The more Zhou Jin thought about it, the angrier and more upset he became. It felt as if there was a heavy stone pressing on his chest, leaving him struggling to breathe. Continue reading at m|v-l'e

"Protecting animals is everyone's responsibility, and contributing to the country is what I should do. As for the government reward, that's not important," the TV showed Su Ming speaking earnestly.

Zhou Jin's eyes bulged, and he suddenly spewed a mouthful of old blood!

The beads of blood sprayed out more than half a meter high and then fell straight down, splattering all over his head and face.
