Chapter 118: A Deadly Pit with No Reparation

Just moments ago, the four mandarin fish were jumping lively, but now they were barely breathing, their gills opening and closing weakly, about to breathe their last.

Sun Feifei's face was very grim as she pointed to the mandarin fish on the ground, angrily questioning, "Shen Mingzhu, is this how you kill fish?"

"Hmm, I usually kill fish this way."

"You..."

Sun Feifei was so frustrated that all she could do was to urge her, "Well, then you hurry up and prepare these four fish. Once they die, the flesh won't be fresh anymore."

Shen Mingzhu looked completely clueless, "Prepare what?"

Zhao Fang couldn't help but burst out, "Do you even know how to kill fish? Don't you know that after killing them you need to scrape off the scales and remove the innards? Also, the black membrane inside the belly has to be cleaned out thoroughly, otherwise the fish flesh will smell fishy."
