Sanada Koji was about to reach out for the wine, but Tang Wen stopped him and persuaded, "Drink less, Mr. Sanada..."

Unexpectedly, Sanada Koji shook his head and said bitterly, "Don't get drunk, don't get drunk!" I left home at the age of nineteen. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info fell in love with drinking, but never got drunk or not......"

He drank the last cup of soju, pointed to his taxi message and took a photo, saying, "Tang Jun, please take a picture of it and send it to your friends in China...... I'll take you to Dolphin Bay tomorrow ......."

Tang Wen did not refuse, knowing that this was his measure to gain his trust, just like when a girl had to take a taxi late at night, she took a picture of the driver's information board with her mobile phone and posted it on Weibo. He opened his phone to take a photo and sent it to Bai Qing. I'm going to wait for her to ask before telling her that I made a mistake.

The proprietress brought two bowls of noodles, and Tang Wenwei ate them like chewing wax. I opened a room and went to sleep.

Before dawn the next day, he heard a knock at the door.

Sanada told him outside the door that he was leaving. In the wee hours of the morning, their hunting activities will begin.

On the way, Sanada added what he didn't have time to say yesterday to Tang Wen.

It turned out that the Dolphin Rescue Organization had already contacted Koji Sanada, and now he also works for this organization. After the Dolphin Bay documentary was broadcast, many foreigners would come here with the desire to help, and Koji and several other drivers who also had the same ideal of protecting dolphins usually picked up guests at the airport or train station, because it was easier to keep an eye out for foreign guests in the prefecture or travelers with such tendencies.

Tang Wen nodded, remembering that when he was at the train station before, there was a handwritten sign in the front window of Sanada's taxi, which said in English and Japanese to Wasange Prefecture... At that time, he said that he was at home, because he had to come back to see if he could pick up a guest by the way.

Dolphin Bay, also known as Taiji Town, is a small harbor with a towering rock wall. This is originally a mountainous area, with a certain history of civilization, and occasionally you can see dark black ancient buildings hidden in the green mountains and forests, I don't know if they are temples or temples.

Sanada talked about their environmental organization as he drove. If the dolphin conservation group wants to rescue the dolphins here, the first thing to do is camouflage, and the people from the conservation organization always come in boats and pretend to be dolphin buyers. Pay a little more than a restaurant to buy a live dolphin. Otherwise, you will clash with angry fishermen.

The car entered Taidi Town, the time was only more than five o'clock in the morning, and the lights were already lit in front of every house, very bright incandescent lamps, and Tang Wen, who had just come down from the mountain road, had his pupils shrunk and felt a little dazzling.

The speed slows down slightly, which should be counted as a small town, and the headlights turn a corner, casually sweeping over a building. Tang Wen sighed and looked at Sanada: "Did I see it wrong?"

Sanada Koji nodded slightly, and he said in a complicated tone: "That's right, Tang Jun, this town kills tens of thousands of dolphins every year. But there are dolphin carvings on every wall, every building... When I was a child, I was also taught to draw stick figures of dolphins. They know, the people here know... Everything about them was brought to them by dolphins..."

Tang Wen opened his mouth twice, but looking at Sanada's sad face, he still didn't ask a word: Since this is the case, how can you still do it?

It's not that there is no fish here, as Sanada said yesterday, there are currents passing through here, which will bring a large number of fish. Half of the year is the season for fishing...... It's not that you can't eat. Tang Wen looked at the stone houses on both sides of the road that were stronger and more beautiful than the wooden detached houses in the United States. Although each house is relatively close to each other, it is also a small independent building with two or three floors. In China, not to mention first-tier cities, even fifth-tier cities are worth more than two million.

Along the way, Tang Wen knew that the geographical location here was not remote, because Japan was not very big, and it was only more than two hours' drive from Osaka, a bustling city on the Kansai side of the island, from the important town on Honshu Island.

Tang Wen's thoughts were a little mixed.

"It's here. Koji Sanada glanced at Tang Wen.

The two of them got out of the car, and the car had already driven to the side of a mountain cliff, and the sea breeze of hunting was blowing.

I don't know if it's a psychological reason, Tang Wen always feels that the sea breeze is refreshing at all, and he always feels that there is an indescribable stickiness in it. The taste is not simply fishy, it seems to be mixed with a hint of fishy sweetness...

"We're going to go down in a boat....... The fishing boats of the public interest conservation organization are already in the sea... I'll send you there..."

Tang Wen followed Tanaka along the path carved out of the rock wall for a while, and finally a small boat with an engine three or five meters long was dragged out of the dock waterway by him.

"Boom..."The engine reverberated on the sea water and sounded extraordinarily loud, but fortunately there were no waves at this time, otherwise Tang Wen might not dare to sit on it. The low-slung gang had no resistance to wind and waves.

"Tang Jun, the ship is in front. ”

Tang Wen followed his finger and looked, the dark blue water turned over the morning mist, and there was a faint boat rocking on the water. The boat quickly approached, and the people on board recognized Koji Sanada and began to greet him,

"Hey, here..."

The voice was strange, Tang Wen stepped on the side of the boat and grabbed the cable soft ladder on the big ship. After climbing a few steps, I looked up and saw the face of a foreign woman.

Tang Wen took her outstretched hand and boarded the big boat in two steps. Sanada's boat slowly drove away.

Tang Wen and a few people on the boat hugged each other and briefly said what they meant.

A European-looking man named Feynman talked to Tang Wen. It's a bit of a struggle to listen to him speak Japanese. Tang Wen simply communicated with him in English: "Great! It turns out that you are Chinese, and I thought you were also Japanese......

"Our plans and protests have been effective... It turned out that before the movie aired, 20,000 or 30,000 dolphins were killed here every day, but it has been halved in the past two years...... Still, there are tens of thousands of dolphins and dozens of calves that ...... here every year."

"Can I buy live dolphins or whales for release?" Tang Wen interrupted.

"Yes. For several years, we were pretending to be the acquirers of the aquarium, using donations from people all over the world who had returned dolphins to buy live dolphins. Take it to the open sea and release ......"

"Is this the only way you have?" Tang Wen looked at the few sailors on the deck who were starting to work, feeling a little unreliable.

"No, no! Of course not!" the woman who came up from La Tangwen waved her hand and explained, "Every year, a lot of money goes to the accounts of our non-profit organizations, and we don't spend that much on protests and other means...... We've experimented with dolphins that have a high IQ and a memory... Most of them don't come back after they're released, unless they're interfered with by sonar......"

At this time, someone shouted, Ivanka, the woman glanced at Tang Wen apologetically, and hurried to get busy.

Feynman took Tang Wen to the wheelhouse of the fishing boat. He took out a stack of Japanese leaflets and showed them to Tang Wen and said, "Our really effective means are provided by Mr. Koji Sanada. His voice was a little low.

"By what means?"

"Control the next generation. Feynman looked a little embarrassed.

"What?"

"That's right, we try to advertise every bus that goes out from Taiji Town and even Wakayama Prefecture, and if we can't do it here, we advertise it at the destination...... Many of the young people here have been affected by us and have had a big disagreement with their families...... Especially those with higher education. They felt that dolphins should no longer be hunted on a large scale in any way...... Many of them have stayed in the big cities and are not coming back. The decline in the number of kills in the past two years is also related to the shortage of manpower... And our work on the government side......"

Tang Wen's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, and he thought that it was a desperate plan. This group of dolphin protection organizations is really ruthless. The town's resident population is said to have dropped to more than 3,000. Most of them are still old people.

He listened to Feynman share their ideas while eating breakfast with them.

During the meal, Ivanka came over again and brought Tang Wen a vegan burger and a cup of black coffee. "We're basically vegetarians," she said. Not only do we not eat dolphin meat, but we don't eat any meat. Originally, I used to eat milk and eggs, but now I came here and tasted the tofu you Chinese invented......" she said, breaking open her burger, pointing to the middle two layers of dried tofu and saying, "I don't eat eggs first, because I can use soy products instead..."

Tang Wen listened a little admired, and felt that such a person came out to do public welfare, and it was convincing to say that it was to protect animals.

Ivanka shook her head, looked at the sea outside, and continued: "We, the people of this conservation organization. Not the kind of person who doesn't eat meat himself and doesn't let others eat it. We're not... If the people here have no food and no income except to hunt dolphins. Then we won't say anything!We'll just get out, because we're not qualified..."She was a little emotional, her hair trembling and the ends of her hair swept over Tang Wen's face.

"But before that, nearly 30,000 dolphins and hundreds of whales were killed every year. Each dead dolphin costs $600 to $800, and a whale costs at least $10,000...... And here, at its peak, there were only about 4,000 people! They were killing like crazy just for the sake of desire!"

The atmosphere was a little heavy, and Tang Wen looked at the sea outside in silence. Ivanka didn't speak again.

Feynman whispered in his ear: "We are not going to rudely prohibit people from killing dolphins, we are just asking the local government to keep this killing within a reasonable range...... Please understand. ”

Tang Wen nodded, he recognized their statement from the bottom of his heart, and felt that this was the attitude to do things.
