“Really?” Shu blinked. She didn’t know if sharks were cold blooded or not, so Pinliang’s explanation seemed rather believable.
“Yeah!” Pinliang said confidently. “Shu, I’ll start grilling the shark for you and Yao Yao, okay? I couldn’t bring flammable stuff onto the plane, so I specifically brought a solar-powered grill! I’ll show you high-tech cooking in just a bit.”
“Ooh, nice! Hurry, then!” Yushu was delighted to hear that she’d be having barbecued shark meat soon.
Mengyao looked at the shark oddly. “How come this shark’s one fin short?”
“What?!” Pinliang’s eyes widened as he looked at the shark. It was true, the shark was missing a fin on one side! And it looked like it had been cleanly cut off by someone.
Pinliang was infuriated. That supermarket vendor had cheated him! Selling the shark to him for such an expensive price when he’d cut a fin off?! Pinliang decided that he’d raze the shop to the ground when he got back.
