1466. The Whale's Wait (Ask for Referral Votes)
Surge forward!
The small place of Cape Ne became crowded in just two or three days, and the secretary of the US Department of Justice came in person, the assistant to the Canadian prime minister and the head of the judiciary also came here, and Qin Shiou, as the captain of the ship in question, was received by these big men - oh, or rather, questioning.
In addition to the judicial organs, more interviews with him are the coming media, what CBS, ABC, CBC, AFC, Qin Shiou met all the world's top ten famous media here, of course, CCTV is indispensable.
Qin Shiou refused to be interviewed, and he only attended an official press conference, at which he briefly introduced his identity and experience, and then did not accept any interviews.
He said everything he knew, and there was nothing to say about the interview, and this 'first case in North America in a decade' was inevitably dirty, and he didn't want to accidentally fall into it.
In addition to cooperating with the judicial authorities to investigate this matter, Qin Shiou would go to the boat to feed those seals when he had free time.
All eyes were on the case and the six remaining crew members, the harp seals had been abandoned, no one had paid attention to them, not even one to feed them.
In fact, the seals are not bad, they store a thick layer of fat, and they can go more than ten days without eating or starving to death in a warm environment, otherwise they will definitely not survive, according to the Mexican chef, since the infighting, except for the occasional sprinkling of ice on the seals, no one cares about them at all.
The blizzard raged for four days, and on the fifth day, the blizzard stopped, and the case began to be handed over to Ottawa and Washington, Qin Shiou was finally relieved, and he could sail home.
As the Coast Guard Colonel said, these harp seals are left unattended. They were unloaded and disposed of on the spot, and no one paid attention to them to any animal protection organizations, seal conservation associations.
Of course, this is normal, whether it is a harp seal or a seal, there are basically a lot of them, otherwise there would be no violent and cruel seal hunt in Canada.
Qin Shiou took the initiative to help deal with it. Then in the evening, the fishermen carried all the seal cages onto the Melon Princess, and the ship was stuffed to the brim.
These days, he brought the fishermen to feed these seals, so when the cage was moved, the seals inside were very sure of their size, eating ice and sleeping when they should have slept, and none of them were frightened or alarmed.
But the fishermen are tired, and an adult seal is at least 100 kilograms. It's not heavy, but it can't hold up the large number, and when it comes to the back, the fishermen are panting and complaining.
Qin Shiou personally led the team, so although there were complaints, no one dared to pick on them.
Shaq lamented, "If I knew we were going to move them, I shouldn't have fed them so much these days,." I've watched them gain weight in the past few days! ”
After transporting the seals, Qin Shiou did not return to the hotel directly. At dawn the next day, I drove the boat out of the dock, took advantage of the calm wind and waves after the snow, and went straight to the farewell island.
When he left the Labrador sea area to enter the Newfoundland Sea, it was evening, and Qin Shiou looked at the beautiful burning clouds in the sky on the deck. Suddenly, a dull voice sounded in the distance: "Moo, moo......"
The sound didn't last long, two or three seconds, and it sounded a bit like the bark of a cow from deep in her throat.
This cry was followed by several muffled roars: "Moo! "Moo moo moo!"
As the shouts kept ringing out. There are also several jets of water that shoot high, like fountains, but the water jets are in a 'V' shape, each in the shape of two jets of water staggered and sprayed.
"Arctic right whales!" Winnie, who was looking at her daughter, exclaimed in surprise.
The call of whales is different, and the call of the right whale is particularly special, which is this sound that resembles the call of a cow. But it's just a sound that they can communicate with each other, and this whale is very gifted with language, and can imitate other sounds, which is more powerful than beluga whales.
Qin Shiou released the consciousness of the sea god and took a look, four big right whales and three small right whales, wasn't this the same group of whales they met a month ago? I didn't expect them to be waiting here.
And to his surprise, these right whales actually recognized the Melon Princess, and their mooing just now was to inform each other, and soon the jet of water was getting closer and closer, and they swam over.
Shaq had no choice but to slow down again, and said helplessly: "Just because of these whales, we will have to spend at least 5,000 yuan more diesel!" ”
Yes, as soon as the giant ship stops together, it will burn 5,000 yuan of diesel fuel twice, so many steamers do not slow down when they find whales, but directly hit them and kill them. It's not that those captains are ruthless, there's no way, they don't have that much money to waste.
Seven right whales swam around the Melon Princess, and every now and then a column of water sprayed up, and the guys stood up in the water, stretched out half their heads, and looked sideways at the Melon Princess - no way, the right whales had flat heads, and when they were erected, they could not look forward together, they could only look sideways with one eye.
This look, a bit obscene, as if a hooligan is looking at beautiful women with his spare eyes.
After the right whales showed their heads, they opened their big mouths one after another, Qin Shiou thought they were going to call again, but there was no sound at all, they just floated on the water with their big mouths open.
Winnie was stunned for a moment, then reacted: "God, they're not waiting for us to feed them, are they?" ”
Qin Shiou was stunned and said, "You said that they are waiting here just for us to come back and feed them?" ”
"Maybe our fish tastes too good." Shaq smiled wryly.
Geng Junjie sighed: "When the taste is beautiful, our fish is so expensive, I was reluctant to eat such expensive fish when I went to the restaurant in my hometown." ”
Unfortunately, there were no extra pieces of fish on the boat, and the king crab fishing was almost used up, leaving only some leftovers.
But there were also frozen squid and stuff that they had brought up from the Maine Bulldog, which was used to make food for the seals, and could only be fed to the whales.
The squid ice cubes were scattered into the water, and the seven right whales scrambled for it, but they only ate a few bites and stopped eating, and continued to poke their heads out and open their mouths to eat, when a small whale cried out greedily.
", your mouth is too tight, isn't it?" Qin Shiou was stunned.
The whales played the scoundrels, did not leave until they were fed, and swam around the Melon Princess.
Qin Shiou had no choice but to ask the fishermen to clean up, pick up the leftover scraps, mix them with squid ice cubes and throw them down.
In this way, the whales are happy to eat, and it can be seen that they are not very picky eaters, but the fish pieces in the fishing grounds are too tempting for them. (To be continued......)
