The most direct way to understand a person’s situation was to chat with the person. In a seemingly ordinary chat, as long as the other person can answer your question, even if it is vague, you can still get the information you want to know.
Undoubtedly, Big Whale was a water ghost who was very good at chatting. First, he praised Ye Jian and gave her a kind impression. Then he laughed and told her why he thought she was incredible; it must be because she had similar training before; otherwise, how could she clean those clamshells so easily?
The most important thing was that the questions he asked had hidden intentions. He only asked how she knew how to clean the clamshells, without mentioning that she had training before, so one couldn’t understand his true intentions from his questions to understand her personal background.
However, as soon as Ye Jian heard his questions, her eyes narrowed a little, but her expression remained the same; she simply replied: “I went to the beach for a while last time, and lived on a deserted island for a few nights.”
Big Whale laughed at her simple reply. This female soldier was very vigilant. The way she answered was as if she didn’t answer, which was indirectly telling him that she knew his true intentions.
“Forgive me, forgive me, I’m used to it.” The laughter calmed down, his body moved a little closer to Ye Jian. He whispered softly: “We were able to find out what we want from the group of soldiers who came over last time. And that made our leader extremely angry; I don’t know how their leader taught them anyway, how could they not have any sense of confidentiality. Unlike you, you knew my intentions just from listening to my questions.”
Big Whale was a native sea person. His skin was tanned. Under the morning glow, there was even a hint of a metallic luster. When he laughed, his white teeth flashed. Ye Jian thought he really looked like a great white shark. If she wasn’t careful, she would be beaten by him, unable to escape.
“I immediately knew that I had to be vigilant when you started speaking.” Ye Jian sliced the white and tender fish fillets to as thin as cicada wings. She didn’t even need to look at the fish; she talked, facing Big Whale while slicing the fish. When she finished her sentence, the fish was already sliced.
As the fighting dagger passed inadvertently in front of Big Whale’s eyes, her serious gaze at him actually sent shivers down his spine.
Indeed, this female soldier looked pretty, but she was really a flower with poisonous thorns, unable to touch.
So it wouldn’t be interesting for him to ask her further. He wouldn’t be able to get anything out from her anyway.
Big Whale, whose intentions were exposed, did not feel embarrassed at all; he calmly replied: “Don’t worry, haha. We will be training together in the future, so I want to get to know you more.”
Ye Jian laughed and said nothing. The male soldiers who happened to be behind her came back one after another. Big Whale, who seemed calm, awkwardly stood up and said, “I’ll go there to have a look. You don’t have to clean all by yourself. Let them do some. We can’t have those men to become lazy.”
The other frogmen glanced at each other quietly. This conversation had given them a new understanding of the new female soldier.
Big Whale was the expert in their team to inquire about others. If he wanted to know something, he wouldn’t just give up easily, especially if he couldn’t get what he wanted in the first try.
This female soldier sent by the army for training really shouldn’t be taken lightly.
Ye Jian didn’t think about what impression her arrival had left on the water ghosts; she only knew that she didn’t like being inquired at all!
An indication must be strangled to death from the beginning.
“Devil King, then things haven’t been settled.” Big Whale, who had left with an excuse, came to Li Jinnian, who was sitting on the reef, looking out to the sea, and said in a serious manner: “And she also warned me. She swayed a fighting dagger in front of me and told me that she didn’t like to be inquired.”
