"How am I supposed to fish, by taking off my pants?"
Liu Zheng said, feigning confusion.
"Vulgar."
Niu Ma disdainfully glanced at him.
"You've got so many tentacles; aren't they all just bait and fishing lines?"
"I suspect it would bite them off completely."
He looked at the giant mouth whale's full mouth of sharp teeth and said.
"If they get bitten off, so be it; you can always grow more."
Niu Ma said indifferently.
"If the line's all broken, how am I supposed to bring in a catch?"
"That's why I gave you that knife, Napoleon didn't say it had to be alive; just stab it to death, and that's that."
Niu Ma said.
"Oh, that could work."
Liu Zheng nodded.
Catching a dead one is much easier than catching a live one.
"Just don't make it too ugly, or Napoleon might not take the catch."
Niu Ma cautioned.
"Got it."
He acknowledged.
"So, where's the sewer?"
Liu Zheng pulled out a map and asked.
"When they say sewer, it's everywhere, obviously."
