The days of being a cat in Japan

Because they met acquaintances, the Fujimoto and Inoue families decided to combine their itineraries.

After all, it is fate to be able to meet together in another city, and things like travel, the more people there are, the more lively they will be.

The next day, the two originally scheduled itineraries were all diving, which is even better, and more people can save money.

Rent a boat with me, hire a diving instructor, rent a few sets of diving equipment, and everything is ready.

After packing up everything, the two families excitedly boarded the rented passenger boat with the animals.

The boss of the boat is a fisherman in his 40s. He is very familiar with the nearby waters after living at sea all year round. In his words, he can drive in and out safely even with his eyes closed.

Contrary to him, Mr. Diving Instructor is a handsome young guy whose surname is said to be Oda.

As soon as he boarded the boat, the diving instructor began to communicate with the boss of the boat, directing the other side to drive to the sea area where he usually takes the tourists to dive.

That sea area is where the coach usually works. The water flow there is stable and the temperature is suitable, and the transparency of the sea water is also very good.

There are many gravels and no reefs under the sea surface, and there is no marine life in the nearby waters that can cause harm to humans. It is a very suitable place for diving.

The boss of the boat drove the boat to the place designated by the diving instructor. The handsome boy first sent a thermometer into the sea with a net bag.

After a while, I fished it up and found that the temperature under the water surface was still a bit low, which was not suitable for diving.

Because it's still early and the sun hasn't fully risen yet, it's normal for this to happen.

So the coach said: "It's impossible to go into the water at this temperature. Why don't you go fishing first, and we'll go down after the water temperature rises."

Knowing that the coach made this decision for everyone's safety, everyone didn't say much. Everyone who came with their fishing rods took their fishing tackles to find their own places.

Xiao Jiantai chose the place at the very end of the boat, holding his small fishing rod and staring intently at the sea surface, for fear of missing any clues.

Xu Jie, who was breathing heavily, curled up his legs sleepily and lay beside him. He was woken up too early today, and he wanted to take this opportunity to catch up on sleep since he hadn't had enough sleep yet.

But it looked at the orange-red lifejacket for pets it was wearing, and pushed the buttons on it with its paws a little annoyed.

I have to say that Mrs. Fujimoto has prepared a lot for this trip, even life jackets for pets are prepared for them.

Mo Yi was beside Xu Jie, looking at the humans who were fishing with great interest. He was very interested in the tools they were using at this time, and planned to learn to see if he could change it so that cats could also use it. .

Mr. Coach did not join this fishing activity, he was observing the temperature under the water anytime and anywhere.

Probably because of the low water temperature, the fish and shrimps in this sea area are only awake and have no appetite to eat, so more than half an hour has passed, and there are still very few fish that have taken the bait.

The boss of the ship, who was observing the sea surface in the cabin, held up his binoculars and said, "It's really rare to see a small group of whales here this season. Probably that idiot got lost with the group of whales again, so he stayed here."

While the captain of the boat was holding his binoculars and muttering to himself, coach Oda on the plywood had already waited for the temperature suitable for entering the water, and began to lead everyone to do warm-up exercises on the plywood.

In order to be afraid of being accidentally injured after entering the water, the fishing rods here have been put away.

Jiantai and Longyi looked enviously at their parents and sister. They had already started to put on diving equipment under the guidance of their coach after finishing the warm-up exercise.

Ryuichi and Kenta were too young, and Coach Oda didn't allow them to go diving in the sea, so they had to stay on the boat with the fluffy ones.

Before going into the water, Mr. Coach once again emphasized the key technical points, and focused on the on-site assessment for the ladies who had no underwater experience before.After making sure that they had all written it down, they took the personnel into the water one by one.

Both Mr. Fujimoto and Mr. Inoue have diving experience, so the coach will focus on the two wives and Junko.

Mr. Fujimoto and Mr. Inoue, who had several diving experiences before, swam in tandem. Mr. Inoue liked to enjoy the scenery of the seabed, while Mr. Fujimoto was more interested in the underwater animals and plants.

Mr. Inoue, holding an underwater video recorder, hurried all the way, busy recording all the scenery he could see in the video recorder.

And Mr. Fujimoto was attracted by a group of small fish, stopped and began to observe their species.

The coach who has been leading the three ladies turned his head to look at the other two gentlemen from time to time, and after making sure that they had not gone far and everything was normal, he continued to teach the three ladies who had just dived.

Mr. Inoue, who felt that he had recorded beautiful shots, swam to his wife with a video camera and showed her the beautiful scenery he had recorded.

Mrs. Fujimoto and Junko were carefully observing the coach's underwater movements and began to imitate them.

And Mr. Fujimoto, who was left not far away, finally determined what species the group of fish belonged to after looking at them for a long time. Satisfied, he got up and wanted to swim to his wife and daughter.

But at this moment, he suddenly felt the muscles on the inner side of his left calf begin to tighten.

Dr. Fujimoto, who has a lot of medical knowledge, immediately felt bad. Sure enough, his calf began to cramp immediately, and Mr. Fujimoto almost cried out in pain.

A series of bubbles floated out of Mr. Fujimoto's mouth. Fortunately, he controlled it quickly and held his breath immediately when he found it difficult, so that the seawater was not sucked in.

Mr. Fujimoto, who was so weak with cramps and pain, couldn't control the balance of his body at first. He curled up and hugged his thighs and began to sink.

Mr. Fujimoto, who was so painful that he couldn't move, stretched out a hand, and desperately gestured for help to the coach and his companions.

But the coach and Mrs. Fujimoto, who were busy teaching and concentrating on studying, did not pay attention to his side, and Inoue and his wife, who were busy sharing the beautiful scenery, did not see his endangered situation.

Mr. Fujimoto, whose leg cramps are getting worse and worse, has begun to turn pale, and the severe pain has begun to affect his breathing rate. As a result of taking deep breaths, his oxygen consumption has increased sharply.

The normal use time of the oxygen cylinder that Mr. Fujimoto borrowed this time should be 30 minutes.

However, no one can guarantee how long the oxygen cylinder can last under such vigorous pumping.

What's more, before he got cramps, he had already dived for more than ten minutes, so the time for the oxygen tank to last was even shorter.

Mr. Fujimoto, who couldn't swim, kept sinking, and the pressure on the bottom increased as he went down, making him more uncomfortable.

The more uncomfortable a person is, the more times he breathes, the greater the oxygen consumption, which has simply become an endless loop.

Gradually, Mr. Fujimoto began to feel tightness in his chest and difficulty in breathing. He closed his eyes, and his mind was full of the faces of his family.

Junko, Kenta, mother, sister, and his dear Rie, if something happens to him, they don't know how sad it will be.

Just when Mr. Fujimoto began to feel hopeless, he suddenly felt something pressing against his body underneath, hugging him and floating towards the surface of the sea.

It didn't take long for Mr. Fujimoto to see Coach Oda coming here with an oxygen cylinder on his back. After teaching several ladies, this gentleman habitually looked for other guests, and then he discovered the abnormality here of Mr. Fujimoto.

Fujimoto Hiroyo saw the astonishment in Mr. Oda's eyes through the diving goggles. This gentleman even loosened the respirator biting his mouth, and a large string of air bubbles floated out of his mouth.

Coach Oda, who was busy with the coach, stuffed the respirator back into his mouth, then turned around, and gestured upward to the other people who came over.

Long Yi, who was bored watching the sea while holding on to the edge of the boat, suddenly pointed to the sea and said, "Jian too quickly, look, your father has floated up, and there are whales beside him."

Mrs. Jian hurriedly lowered her head to look after hearing the words, and she saw her father pushed out of the sea by a big fish.

Xu Jie, who also stayed on the boat, couldn't see the situation on the sea because of his size, but after listening to the shouting of these two boys, he knew that Mr. Fujimoto was in trouble, and he used his paws to grab Xiao Jiantai's leg in a hurry .

Soon other people who were diving in the sea came up one after another. Coach Oda asked Mr. Fujimoto, "Mr. Fujimoto, what's wrong with you?"

Mr. Fujimoto said with a painful expression: "I have a cramp in my leg."

Upon hearing this, Coach Oda immediately waved to the boat, indicating that the people on the boat are ready, and other people will come to help.

People on both sides of the boat and under the boat worked hard together, and finally Mr. Fujimoto in the sea was transported to the boat.

Before climbing onto the boat, Fujimoto Hiroyo took a look under the boat, and found that the thing that had been holding him was the fat juvenile melon-headed whale that he and others rescued yesterday.

Looking into the distance, there are indeed a group of whales cruising not far away, obviously waiting for this little whale to return to the team.

Seeing that Mr. Fujimoto boarded the boat safely, the little whale waved its tail fin vigorously, raising the water as if saying goodbye to the people on board.

After doing this, it turned sideways and swam towards its partners vigorously.

Mr. Fujimoto, who was carried on board, received treatment immediately. Everyone rubbed his calf vigorously to help him relieve the spasm.

At the same time, Coach Oda also called his colleagues on shore, asking them to help contact the doctor.

Anyone who has experienced cramps knows that this kind of problem is very painful when it occurs, but as long as you get over it, you will be no different from a good person after you get over it.

So when the ship docked, Mr. Fujimoto could walk off the ship by himself.

The doctor who had been waiting here for a long time checked his body with a first aid kit. Someone who got the news came to watch the excitement, but suddenly a person came over to Mr. Fujimoto and asked: "I heard that you have cramps under the sea. It was a whale that saved you, and there are whales over there, isn't it true?"

After hearing the words, Mr. Fujimoto looked at the person who came to ask the question calmly, and then suddenly laughed and said: "Who told this story, it is so outrageous that some people believe it. When I was cramping underwater, It was my coach, Mr. Oda, who saved me, he is amazing, he dealt with emergencies in a timely manner, if you don’t believe me, ask him.”

Saying that, Mr. Fujimoto turned his head and blinked at Mr. Oda.

Although I don't know why Mr. Fujimoto said that, but what he said now is indeed beneficial to him.

So Coach Oda subconsciously; "Yes."

Seeing that someone agreed, that person went to see other people.

Although the Inoue family who was with Mr. Fujimoto didn't know why he said that, they knew each other and didn't know each other. Of course, they wanted to speak to the side they knew.

So they said so.

On the contrary, Mrs. Fujimoto seemed to have noticed something in her husband's words. She not only agreed with what her husband had just said, but even ridiculed the guy who spread false 'rumors' everywhere.

Seeing that everyone on the boat was unanimous, the guy who asked the question finally believed it, and said a few more words to Mr. Fujimoto, then turned around and left without saying a word.

After all the spectators dispersed, the captain of the boat came over to Mr. Fujimoto with a cigarette in his mouth and said, "Did you see that man is a whaling man?"

Hearing this, Mr. Fujimoto lowered his head and stamped his feet, and said in a bad tone: "It's hard not to smell the bloody smell all over your body."

Hearing the words, the boat boss hesitated for a while and said: "Actually, being a fisherman is not easy. It is dangerous and hard. But if you don't do it, you can't do it. The boat is there. It will rust if you don't use it. Once it rusts, the whole boat will be ruined. A large ship in the open sea costs hundreds of millions of yen at least, so no one can easily afford such a loss. Fishermen have no other skills, so how can the whole family live if they don’t work?"

Dr. Fujimoto raised his head and stared into the eyes of the boss of the boat and said, "Don't think about it. I can't control what I will do, but I can control myself. So those guys don't want to know any news about the whale group from me. Since you want to I can understand the difficulty of the fisherman, so I hope you can understand the persistence of a veterinarian."

The boss of the boat was a little startled by Dr. Fujimoto, he smiled awkwardly and said, "Don't get excited, I have no other intentions, I'm just a boat driver, I've never done whaling work, and I don't want to do it. "

This is a disguised explanation to Dr. Fujimoto that he will not disclose the news of the whale group.

Dr. Fujimoto bowed his head and whispered, "Thank you."

Then, with the support of his family, he walked towards the hotel where he lived with heavy steps.
