The Fisherman Who Never Catches Fish

Fortunately, the heavens do not disappoint those with perseverance; they finally had something to look forward to.

"Streamer, we all thought you had gone missing."

"It's been so hard, we've only seen photos online of you with others at the airport."

"Streamer, heard you went to Island Province? How was it?"

"Since I was staying at home the past few days, I didn't do any live streaming," Fang Hao simply explained, "As for the island here, I think everyone who has the time and opportunity should pay a visit."

"The scenery here is genuinely beautiful, and there are stunning views everywhere."

"There are many interesting things here, and the local island villagers are very simple and honest."

"Most importantly, there's a lot of seafood here, and the fish populations are abundant. Those who love eating seafood and enjoy fishing will definitely find the trip worthwhile."

This was what Fang Hao had seen and heard since yesterday, and naturally, he knew what to talk about and had the right to speak.

When Fang Hao said this, quite a few netizens were tempted.

"Is it that fun?"

"Then I must visit Island Province this year!"

"Streamer, wait for me, I'm on my way now!"

"I've already bought my plane tickets, taking a direct flight tonight."

Some quick netizens had already bought plane tickets for tonight to fly to Island Province.

"I'm already fishing here right now."

"But there's something I need to remind everyone about—there's a typhoon coming soon."

"It's possible flights and trains will be suspended, so everyone might want to avoid this time."

Fang Hao had also thought of the typhoon and took the time to remind everyone in the live stream.

Just then.

Desert, who had been fishing with Fang Hao, was also filming a video with his team and reminding netizens about the precautions needed during a typhoon.

Such as securing doors and windows, not going out to sea.

And also.

"Don't stand under coconut trees when it's windy at all costs."

"Coconuts or leaves can easily fall and hit you on the head."

"This is also to educate everyone about safety..."

Bang.

Before Desert could finish his sentence, a coconut leaf fell from above, smashing right in front of him.

It barely missed hitting Desert.

One must say, that was extremely lucky.

Otherwise, getting hit by a coconut leaf could easily result in injury, or worse, it could be the end.

Coconut trees aren't like other trees; their leaves are large and heavy.

Desert was shocked himself.

He stood there, petrified and unsettled, not daring to move an inch.

He had only intended to highlight the danger of standing under coconut trees during a typhoon, and he nearly became a cautionary example himself.

His back was drenched in cold sweat.

Desert's forehead was beaded with sweat, and his complexion turned much paler.

Seeing this, everyone else immediately rushed over to check on Desert's condition.

"Not good."

Fang Hao also ran over.

"What happened?"

The viewers in the live stream were also unaware of what had occurred.

Since the angle they saw of Desert earlier didn't show the event, they could only wait for Fang Hao to come back and update them.

When the crowd gathered around, they all asked about Desert's condition.

"I'm... I'm okay."

"It was really close."

Desert wiped off his sweat, feeling as if he had just skirted the edge of the afterlife.

After confirming several times that Desert was unharmed, everyone finally relaxed.

Desert then regained his composure and led the group away from the base of the coconut tree.

Now that the wind was picking up, it was better to keep a safe distance from coconut trees.

Nobody could predict if their luck would be bad.

Fang Hao quickly returned to his original spot and, seeing the questions in the live stream, briefly recounted the incident.

"Just now, a friend was here giving a safety announcement. During the windy weather, he almost got hit standing under a coconut tree."

"Uh uh uh... Is it really that dangerous?"

"It seems typhoons are terrifying. I'm from the inland area and have never seen a typhoon before, so I had no idea before this."

"The wind isn't very strong right now, the typhoon hasn't officially made landfall."

"Otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to come out fishing."

"Just remember this in the future, whenever it's windy, don't stand in dangerous places, like near collapsing walls, under big trees, and so on."

Fang Hao added a few words of caution to the viewers.

Sharing with them this safety knowledge.

"I get it."

"I get it +1."

"..."

Everyone expressed their understanding.

It wasn't until another comment popped up that Fang Hao was reminded.

"Streamer, is it dangerous for you to be fishing there? Could something fall from above?"

After seeing this comment, Fang Hao seriously checked his surroundings.

The nearest tree to him was almost ten meters away.

At that distance, even if a tree fell, it wouldn't hit him.

But... Fang Hao felt that the viewers had a point; in this typhoon weather, he still needed to protect himself.

So when no one was paying attention, he stepped away for a moment, took the helmet that the system had rewarded him with earlier, put it on his head, and then came back to continue fishing.

With the helmet on, even if something were to fall from above, it wouldn't hurt him.

When everyone saw him disappear for a while and then come back wearing a helmet,

they were all stunned.

This...

Nobody knew what to say.

And Désèrt, who had just experienced this event, was utterly flabbergasted.

Bro, is this not a bit too much?

No one cared where Fang Hao had gotten the helmet from.

They were all captivated by him wearing it.

Viewers in the live stream were also seeing Fang Hao in this getup for the first time.

Fishing while wearing a helmet... uh, well, it's kinda a cool image.

Again, viewers started taking screenshots, as this was a rare scene.

"I can't handle it; I'm going to die laughing."

"Streamer, you're too funny, fishing with a helmet???"

"I suspect you're deliberately trying to make me laugh to death so you can inherit my debt."

"Haha, Streamer, come clean about what you've done."

"Confess and you'll be treated leniently; resist and you'll be dealt with severely."

"Streamer, you're really worrying about nothing. Look around; do you see a big tree within five meters of you?"

One by one, they all pressed Fang Hao about the situation on-site.

"Don't worry, I'm perfectly fine,"

"I'm not like you guys, daring to swear oaths during a thunderstorm."

"I don't have any secrets here."

"No secrets?"

"Then, Streamer, tell us about your story with Feifei Goddess."

There were still many viewers who didn't quite believe Feifei's replies to them.

They still suspected these two had some secrets unknown to others.

Are they a couple?

Or was it truly a chance meeting?

But such an encounter was too coincidental.

If it weren't for the fact that someone caught them in the video editing process,

they wouldn't have known about the "fling" between Fang Hao and the female angler.

"You guys really misunderstood; we really just met for the first time. It was a pure coincidence."

"Hey, don't spread rumors."

It was fine for him, a grown man, to be teased by everyone. But for a young girl, it could potentially have a negative impact.

Just like that, the online community confirmed that there really wasn't anything going on between Fang Hao and the female angler Feifei.

"Alright, alright."

"Let's see if I can catch some fish this time."

With the weather like this before the typhoon, and fully equipped with even a helmet on,

if he couldn't catch a fish, that would be embarrassing.

Fang Hao had just seen a couple of fish breaking the water surface and knew there had to be plenty of fish below.

Everyone said the fish here were easy to catch, so this time he might actually have a chance.

"Hm?"

"Streamer, did you forget about your special ability?"

"Catching a fish is impossible."

"No matter how easy it is to catch here, could it be easier than in a fish pond?"

After hearing Fang Hao's confident remark, they all remained calm.

They felt Fang Hao might have forgotten something.

That thing was... his persona as someone who couldn't catch fish.

Could it be that changing locations would break such a curse?

That would be impossible.
