Chapter 0002: Underwater Killing Machine

He Yang's right leg was amputated at the knee, and his calf was missing; an irregular wound, deep enough to expose bone, extended from his left hip to the back of his knee, with flesh rolling back and blood gushing forth, quickly staining the deck red, the stench of blood making one feel nauseous

As long as the bleeding can be stopped, a broken leg usually poses no significant problem. However, that irregular wound, measuring over 40 centimeters in length, is too deep and severe; even a professional surgeon would find it challenging, let alone someone like him who only has a basic understanding of first aid.

Professor Qin squeezed in front of Ye Han, his face pale as he asked: "Xiao Ye, is there really no hope?"

"Wu Ming, what are you saying!" Professor Qin furrowed his brows, while the others stared blankly at Wu Ming.

Everyone is well aware of the circumstances surrounding He Yang's fall into the water. The boat owner bears some responsibility, but to place all the blame solely on the boat owner is simply unreasonable

Ye Han exerted too much force, losing balance and falling onto the deck, nearly splitting her bottom into eight pieces

Seeing that Ye Han was unresponsive, Wu Ming intensified his accusations: "Keep an eye on him, don't let him escape!"

Ye Han bitterly said: "Old Qin, do you think I don't want to save him? His blood has already run dry." His gaze fell upon He Yang's pale face, as life had already faded away with the dilating pupils.

Come help!" Ye Han let out a muffled roar, and the students in the vessel awoke from their stupor, rushing towards the stern. Some grabbed clothing, while others pulled at legs, all exerting their strength to pull upwards.

The quick-handed man in glasses immediately dialed the emergency number, but heard a busy signal. He refused to give up and dialed 120 again.

The incident occurred on his ship, and he cannot evade joint liability under any circumstances. Even if others do not report it, he must call the police and wait for them to arrive for an investigation

The professional lifeguard can only approach the drowning person from behind, yet he cannot see where the individual is and is unable to determine which direction is the correct one for rescue.

Old Qin's lips moved slightly, and after countless words, it ultimately transformed into a long sigh

He Yang clutched at Ye Han's chest as if grasping a lifeline, his hands gripping tightly like a pair of pliers, causing Ye Han to grimace in pain.

At that moment, from beneath the water behind Wu Ming, a gray-brown spike covered in fur quietly emerged, followed by a second, a third...

Looking again at He Yang's left leg, the wound that had cut through half of the leg was already devoid of blood.

Bai Xiaoting widened her eyes and tightly covered her mouth

A thought suddenly emerged in Ye Han's blank mind: It is alive, this thing is alive

Ye Han's eyes, that object is as thick as a wrist, with a sharp and pointed end, resembling a baseball bat with a sharp tip. Suddenly, the sharp tip of that object lifted up, then curved downwards.

A segment that is at least over one meter long

"Ambulance, quickly call an ambulance!" shouted the man with glasses loudly

Ye Han suddenly caught a strong smell of blood, and when she looked up, she was immediately startled.

He Yang fell heavily, lying motionless on the deck

Ye Han shifted her leg over the railing at the stern of the boat, and at that moment, a loud splash erupted from the water as a figure suddenly leaped out of the surface.

Ye Han gave a bitter smile: "Don't bother, a person's entire blood volume is only 5 liters, it's just a bottle of water. Look at how much blood he has already lost?"

Baseless accusations ignited Ye Han's fury, the flames of anger in his eyes nearly tangible. Had it not been for the death of a person on the ship, he would have undoubtedly given this brat a lesson he would never forget!

Ye Han had no time to think further, and suddenly lunged forward, pressing her abdomen against the railing, grabbing He Yang's arm with one hand

He Yang's blood had long since stained the narrow deck, a drop of fresh blood flowed out from the deck, sliding along the ship's railing into the water, slowly diffusing.

A tall and handsome young man suddenly pointed at Ye Han in anger and shouted: "He Yang is the one you caused to die, call 110 and report him!"

Ye Han was astonished to see a mass of deep red spreading in the water, and at the same time, He Yang in the water suddenly became lighter, being pulled back onto the boat by everyone in one breath

The extreme shock rendered him almost deaf to any sound; he did not know how much time had passed before the tense beating of his heart, the clashing of his teeth, and the heavy gasps began to resonate in his ears like muffled thunder.

He Yang in the water was in a state of panic, his fingers desperately clawing at the rusted ship's railing: "Pull me up, pull me up... ah!" The shout suddenly turned into a wail, and He Yang, floating on the water's surface, suddenly sank.

Wu Ming instinctively turned his head, but before he realized what had happened, the limb suddenly thrust down.

Bai Xiaoting leaned quietly against the hatch, peering out, and her gaze happened to meet He Yang's unblinking eyes. Her expression instantly changed, and she quickly covered her mouth with her hand

He was suddenly startled and stumbled, nearly falling into the water, pointing at that object and trembling uncontrollably, too nervous to utter a single word

A limb pierced towards Wu Ming, and that student exerted all his strength to break through the obstruction in his throat, letting out a roar: "Be careful—"

Ye Han exerted all her strength, intending to pull He Yang out; however, He Yang was exceptionally heavy. Ye Han used every ounce of her strength, yet not only did He Yang fail to rise, but he also sank a few more inches into the water.

Wu Ming, furious and embarrassed, relied on the fact that everyone on the ship was on his side and shouted fiercely yet weakly: "What are you going to do about it? I still want to hit you..."

The sudden mutation left everyone in shock, and the deck was instantly thrown into chaos. In a state of panic and instinct, the crowd hurriedly retreated, instinctively distancing themselves from Wu Ming. Only Ye Han remained motionless, her eyes wide open, staring intently at the blood-soaked object.

Ye Han is not a saintly man, raising his blood-stained face and saying, "Go ahead, say it again!" The cold words are filled with murderous intent, causing everyone's breath to catch in their throats

The value of human life is paramount, and Ye Han's conscience prevents him from standing idly by; moreover, since the incident occurred on his ship, he bears an inescapable responsibility as the shipowner

The bleeding at the broken leg stopped, and as Ye Han turned his head, he happened to see He Yang's dilated pupils

Ye Han sat down dejectedly, her gaze vacant as if she were a dead fish: "There is no time left."

The crowd finally worked together to pull He Yang out of the water. As his head just broke the surface, He Yang let out a piercing wail of agony

A student saw something emerging from the stern of the ship, resembling a fist in thickness and clearly segmented. The familiar shape flashed through his mind like a thunderbolt—this is a leg! It is the leg of an insect! It is the appendage of an insect!

Even if the general public does not understand medicine, they are aware of the consequences of excessive blood loss, and the atmosphere instantly dropped to freezing point

With a sudden sound, a slightly curved object pierced through Wu Ming's right chest, its bloodied tip aimed directly at Ye Han's forehead, just two centimeters away from striking his skull

Ye Han remained silent, completely unwilling to pay any attention to this unreasonable scoundrel

Ye Han immediately pulled her legs back, swung her arms like a windmill, and forcefully threw the life buoy beside He Yang: "Catch it!"

Ye Han was taken aback, suddenly embracing He Yang's head, causing the sunlight to shine into He Yang's eyes, yet his dilated pupils showed no reaction

Ye Han jumped up smartly, disregarding the blood-soaked ground as she knelt beside He Yang, quickly unfastening her belt to tightly bind his severed leg.
