Wu Bolin attempts to board a Japanese research vessel for passage, but the ship detects him and attempts to evade. After Wu Siyuan broadcasts a distress signal, the Japanese captain orders the vessel to proceed at full speed, prioritizing their “noble mission” over a sinking Argentinian ship.
Hero of heart The amazing son in law complete
Chapter 7438
On the dark and calm sea, a research vessel flying the Japanese flag sailed steadily.
Before the Roaring Forties, the seas were relatively calm. Both large and small ships could see each other using their shipâs radar. Within a radius of several kilometers, there were only two ships, one large and one small.
This Japanese research vessel is Wu Bolinâs target this time.
Even with his powers, he couldnât traverse the entire Roaring Forties alone, so he needed to find a research vessel to hitch a ride on, preferably to find a place to live in Antarctica.
Of the research vessels that have departed from Ushuaia recently, only the Japanese vessel is from East Asia.
Although Wu Bolin hadnât seen a Japanese person since the First Sino-Japanese War, he knew that since both were from East Asia, there werenât many physical differences between Chinese and Japanese people. Therefore, blending in with the Japanese research team was the best option for him at the moment.
As the two ships approached, Wu Bolin prepared to board the ship by treading water as they approached. However, when the other ship detected their approach on its radar, it changed course and prepared to circle the other ship at a safe distance. Seeing this, Wu Bolin immediately ordered Wu Siyuan to send a distress signal to the other ship via the intercom system.
Wu Siyuan shouted through the intercom in fluent English: âHelp! Help! This is ARG7717. Our ship has lost power, is damaged, is taking on water, and is about to sink. Requesting assistance from JRC5990!â
At that moment, on the Japanese research vessel with IMO number JRC5990, the officer on duty immediately contacted the captain by radio: âCaptain Sato, we have received a distress call from a vessel with IMO number ARG7717. The vessel is approximately five nautical miles from us. The vessel is damaged and is about to sink. We request instructions.â
A deep voice came through the walkie-talkie: âIgnore him, move forward at full speed! We have no time to waste on that Argentinian ship. Let them contact the Argentinian maritime rescue department!â
The driver on duty immediately said spontaneously, âBut the other side is about to sinkâŚâ
The captain replied coldly, âFool! So what if we sink? Weâve traveled tens of thousands of kilometers to get here to carry out Japanâs noble mission of Antarctic scientific research, not to rescue Argentinian fishermen. Their lives are none of our concern! Keep moving forward!â
The driver on duty had no choice but to respectfully reply, âYes, Captain Sato! I understand!â
Inside the fishing boat, Wu Siyuan watched the enemy on the radar getting farther and faster. His face flushed as he exclaimed, âDamn it, instead of coming to our rescue, this Japanese research vessel is speeding up and taking a detour!â
âDamn it!â Wu Bolin cursed angrily, âDidnât you say people are getting kinder these days? And thereâs a spirit of international humanitarianism, how can there still be people who refuse to help those in need?! What kind of humanity is this?â
Wu Siyuan was also very frustrated.
It was he who gave Wu Bolin this idea, because he thought that since Wu Bolin could use his spiritual energy to control othersâ minds, as long as he could lure the Japanese research ship over, he could leave the rest to Wu Bolin. But who would have thought that not only did the Japanese ship not arrive, but instead accelerated its escape, which was simply too unethical.
Feeling helpless, he said embarrassedly, âSorry, Elder, I underestimated their character. Why donât we wait a little longer? Thereâs another research ship leaving tonight, from Canada.â
Wu Bolin also lost his patience, gritted his teeth and said, âNo way! I canât swallow this! Go ahead and chase him!â
Seeing Wu Bolinâs firm attitude, Wu Siyuan swallowed his persuasive words and turned to the boatman, saying, âHurry up and chase!â
