Prelude: Baby in the Storm

Sixteen years ago, a violent wind and rain swept over the sea of wealth, the Yataska Sea. This was an undeserved catastrophe for the fishing ships that hadn't returned to the sea.

The white waves slapped the ship, and the hearts of the fishermen on the ship trembled.

"Mori! What are you doing? Are you crazy?" The captain of the ship roared at the sailor, whose eyes widened. The sailor was about to run out of the crew room.

Under such an extreme weather, leaving the crew room like a shelter without permission was undoubtedly to unlock the door of his life.

"Damn it! It must be because of that baby!" The first officer spat and looked at the disappearing figure of Mori worriedly.

The captain of the ship was confused. "A baby? What baby?"

The man waved his hand and said, "When the net was closed, Mori heard the baby crying! But except him, we didn't hear any sound except for thunder and rain."

"Damn it! Where he thought we were sailing? Children's amusement park? How could there be a baby in the sea?" After knowing the reason, the captain frowned and seemed to be thinking about it.

Gritting his teeth, the captain of the ship gave an order. "Let's go. No matter what kind of baby it is, we have to bring Mori back first. It's too dangerous outside! Kohler, follow me. The others will wait here!"

"Yes, captain! "The first officer and the crew responded.

At this moment, on the deck.

Covering the rain with her hands, Mori ran to the fishing net and tried his best to untie the intertwined net threads.

The fish and shrimps in the fishing net took the opportunity to escape back to the sea, but Mori was more determined. "Yes, yes, I heard him crying!"

Although the sound of pouring rain was loud, he was sure that he had heard it right. The baby was nearby!

"Mori! Come back!" The captain of the ship trotted out of the crew room with his first officer. The umbrella in his hand was broken by the strong wind in an instant. The captain of the ship snorted, threw the umbrella on the deck casually and ran towards Mori.

"Hey, Mori, let's talk about it later. You go back with us first. It's too dangerous here! You don't want to be buried in the sea, do you?" The first officer ran to the side of Molly first, with one hand dragging him squatting on the ground, and the other hand wiping the rain from his face desperately

The shaking ship, the whistling sea wind, the slippery deck and the sudden rain made them have to lower their center of gravity to keep their bodies stable.

All of a sudden, Mori turned around and lowered her head, his lips trembling slightly.

The chief officer thought that Mori had finally come to his senses. When he was about to drag him back, he saw Mori holding a small dark red meatball in his hand.

"Wow! Whoosh! Whoosh! Woo, woo, woo!"

The cry seemed to have magic, and it was clearly heard by the three people on the deck through the sound of rain.

At that moment, time seemed to stop.

The captain came to his senses first. He pulled up Mori who was squatting on the ground with brute force and rushed to the crew room

The man stared at the little meatball in Mori's arms, and exclaimed in his heart. Oh my God! What Mori said was true. We actually caught a baby! He was still emitting a strange light!

But at this moment, he couldn't think too much. He shook the rain on his head and quickly followed Mori.

Fortunately, the sudden sea disaster did not last too long. The dark clouds swept, and the hurricane blew. The former peace was restored.

The people on the fishing ship were also safe and sound. After the sea surface was stabilized, the captain of the ship drove back to the dock.

When they got off the ship, the crew talked and laughed. They seemed to be in a higher mood than usual after surviving in a disaster.

"This child has a ruddy face and smooth breathing. It seems that he is fine. Good luck!"

A group of sailors surrounded Mori and looked at the baby in his arms curiously.

At this moment, he stopped crying and his body returned to the milky white color as a healthy baby. He fell asleep quietly in the arms of Mori.

"Don't laugh, Mori! Then you don't have to worry about being lonely all your life!"

With a happy smile on his face, Mori lovingly looked at the baby lying in his arms.

Behind him, the captain came over. He stretched out his rough fingers and gently rubbed the baby's nose. He said in a low voice, "Little guy, you have to thank your benefactor, Mori. If it weren't for him, you might have been buried in the sea in the Yataska Sea!"

Then he raised his head to look at Mori and said, "Since you saved him, you have to raise him. The child's parents... I don't think it's necessary to look for them anymore. They must be ruthless."

Hearing the captain's words, with a bright smile on his face, Mori saluted him.

"Yes, captain!"

The captain nodded and left. It seemed that something occurred to him all of a sudden. He looked back at Mori.

"By the way, remember to give the baby a good name. Mori..! What a bumpkin!"

Hearing this, all the crew burst into laughter, leaving all the unhappiness behind.

Mori blushed with shyness, but in his heart, he had already thought of the child's name: Lo Lambert.

"When I met you, your body was shining with a dark red luster. At that moment, I thought of the legendary treasure of the sea-the lobster. I named you Lo, which means' treasure in the sea ', and Lambert follows my surname. What do you think? My taste is not too rustic, right? Ha ha!"

Since then, whenever Lo asked about his name, Mori would tell him in this way.
