Chapter 88 Domestic Ugly Fish (5)

The oily face with the big belly was full of flattering smiles, and he trotted closer to the man.

"Dear Mr. Knox, we are very sorry that you have encountered such an unpleasant incident."

"For this, I once again solemnly apologize to you."

The big belly bent at ninety degrees and bowed, showing full sincerity.

After that, he raised his head and looked at the man, "Mr. Ke Nuo, allow me to see those interstellar beasts?"

The man did not speak, but glanced at the location of the fish tank.

The big belly immediately understood, and ran over in fear.

There was a piece of fish corpse floating on the top of the fish tank, which made him feel even more uneasy.

Sweeping out of the corner of the eye, I saw a pile of tiny air bubbles at the corner of the cylinder wall.

He frowned, and after taking a closer look, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Big Belly has a conclusion on the cause of the death of the ugly fish, so he is confused.

He moved his eyes down, quickly flashed among the colorful sea anemones, and paused when he glanced somewhere.

Qi Xue looked along, and saw that it was the other female ugly fish.

The big belly stopped for a while, seemed to understand, and moved his eyes again.

When he saw where she was, his pupils suddenly shrank.

"Hiss." The big belly gasped, his eyes wandered repeatedly in a certain direction of her, the female ugly fish, and the fish corpse, and his brows quickly moved closer to the middle.

"what happened?"

The sudden cold voice startled Qi Xue.

The man came over at some point and was staring at the big belly for a moment.

Was it because she was too absorbed in observing the big belly that she didn't notice the movement around her for a while, or was this man's steps silent?
Qi Xue fell into deep contemplation and self-reflection.

The big belly was also taken aback, but he quickly regained his composure and smiled.

"Mr. Knox."

He greeted respectfully, pointed his fat finger at the fish tank and said, "I found something strange."

The man still had no emotion on his face, but he was staring at the fingers of his belly, and said a word concisely: "Say."

"Look at these three places."

Qi Xue watched helplessly as the fat finger moved from the fish carcass to the female ugly fish, and finally landed in her direction.

She held her breath, feeling a little bad in her heart, it was a kind of guilty conscience that she would be found out if she did something bad.

This guilty conscience made her subconsciously hide from the sea anemone behind her.

Just listen to the big belly said: "From the current situation, these three ugly fish are all female."

"But when we shipped it to you, we only sent one female."

The man's eyes suddenly became sharp, "Are you saying that someone touched this batch of goods during transportation?"

The goods sent were inconsistent with the goods received. This realization made the temperature of the man's body drop several levels.

The house was tightly guarded, and he had personally inspected it just now, and there was no sign of intrusion.

If it is not the delivery error itself, the only possibility is that it will be replaced on the way.

It's just a group of low-level interstellar beasts with little to no aggressiveness, and they have no value of robbery at all.

This move has a clear meaning.

This is a declaration of war on the Kesnow family.

Thinking of this, the man's eyes were full of danger.

Facts have proved that nothing can be imagined.

The big belly didn't know that the man had already screened all possible competitors in his mind because of his few words.

But he knew that the man had indeed misunderstood.

So he quickly waved his hands to explain: "You misunderstood."

"I mean, there were two male uglies that changed their sexes on their own."

A trace of confusion flashed across the man's eyes, "Can the sex of the interstellar beast still be changed?"

He obviously knows little about this ornamental low-level interstellar beast.

"Very good, player, you are not the only one asking this question." Xiao Liu was happy because he found a companion for Qi Xue.

Qi Xuemo always felt that these words were contemptuous of her.

Big belly explained: "The ugly fish is the only interstellar beast that can change gender."

"But only from male to female."

Knowing that it was not a deliberate target, the man regained his original paralyzed face, "Is this related to the death of these interstellar beasts?"

Big Belly nodded, "The female ugly fish has a strong sense of occupation. Under normal circumstances, in order to avoid internal fighting, a small-scale group will only produce one female ugly fish."

"Only after the death of the original female ugly fish will new female ugly fish evolve, which is a tacit understanding among the ugly fish species."

"And in this fish tank, there are three female ugly fish."

"The area of ​​the fish tank is limited, and the presence of two or more female ugly fish at the same time will greatly increase the probability of conflict and easily lead to fights."

The hidden meaning of these words is obvious. You have three female ugly fish in this fish tank at the same time, so it's strange if they don't fight.

When beasts fight, there are no many considerations that humans put into the fight, and most of them just don't stop until they die.

"Look here."

He said that there was no proof, and Big Belly pointed to the corner of the fish tank, where there was a layer of white bubbles floating on the water.

He began to give evidence one by one.

"These look like white bubbles, but they are actually tiny scales unique to ugly fish."

"It can be seen from the area of ​​this pile of bubbles that there are a lot of scales falling off."

"Usually, it's only disease or fighting that causes large numbers of ugly fish to lose their scales."

"But if it is a disease, it is very easy to infect in the same small piece of water, and it is difficult to have survivors."

"There are still these fish corpses." Big Belly turned his gaze back to the water, "Look carefully, they all have slight wounds on their bodies."

He pointed to one of them. "This one even has a part of its fin broken off."

Men should go by reputation, indeed.

"These are manifestations of their infighting."

To sum up, this is Big Belly’s explanation for the large number of deaths of interstellar beasts.

Qi Xue understood.

Her body hidden among the sea anemone shrank even further, feeling very guilty.

She kept comforting herself that no one was around when the crime was committed, and these ugly fish couldn't speak. No one knew it was her, so don't worry.

The man also understood, with the same paralyzed face, "You want to say that the cause of death of these interstellar beasts is fighting."

Big belly nodded: "Yes."

"Sounds reasonable." The man affirmed at first, then changed the topic, "But there is one thing I don't understand."

He asked: "You just said that there is a tacit understanding between ugly fish, so why are there multiple female fish in this fish tank at the same time?"

"This" was unexpected, and Big Belly didn't know how to explain it.

Facing the man's sharp gaze, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and tell the truth: "We don't know either."

"Very good." The corner of the man's mouth curled into a sneer, "Is this the explanation you gave me? Not sure?"

"Are you trying to use these three words to clean up the relationship?"

The man's words were so cold that there was no warmth.

Qi Xue felt that the man had mastered the use of threats.

Especially for the word 'very good', Xiao Liu gave various explanations in his mind.

"Very well, if you dare to deal with me like this, just wait for death."

"Very well, you guys are trying to evade responsibility in vain, wait for death."

Either way, the end result is death.

The big belly trembled, and the fat on the stomach trembled.

He laughed and said quickly: "No, no, this is our problem."
