Chapter 520 The Silver Dragonfish Worth Ten Thousand
Manager Wu, who was walking ahead, seemed to sense something.
She slowed her pace and turned to look at Chen Huan.
Feeling guilty, Chen Huan quickly pretended to be very busy.
He lowered his head, took out his phone from his pocket, and asked Huang Yanyan about the current market price of silver arowana.
Huang Yanyan is quite knowledgeable.
When asked what kind of silver arowana could be worth millions, the other party immediately gave a response.
You're probably referring to a variant of the silver arowana, the platinum arowana. However, the most expensive ones are around 300,000 yuan, and those are large individuals with perfect appearance.
Why are you interested in fish? If you like them, I can buy you a few as a gift.
Chen Huan casually replied with a couple of sentences, managing to get through to the situation, and had a general idea of what was going on.
Soon, Manager Wu led Chen Huan to a freezer that resembled a small supermarket.
Upon opening it, there was indeed a large silver arowana wrapped in a vacuum-sealed plastic bag.
According to Huang Yanyan's previous description, this silver arowana, which has a platinum-colored appearance, is indeed quite valuable.
"So, you've seen the thing."
"We also have CCTV footage of the lobby at the time of the incident."
"I'd like to see what you have to say." Manager Wu stood there with his arms crossed, looking down at Chen Huan with an air of superiority.
Chen Huan was calculating in his mind how to lower the compensation price.
I'm going to take videos and photos and send them to Huang Yanyan.
Now we can only ask Miss Huang for help.
As a result, while Chen Huan was taking pictures, he glanced at the platinum dragonfish a couple of times.
Then I realized something was wrong.
He put away the phone, frowned, and said, "Your silver arowana didn't die from overeating."
Manager Wu frowned and sneered, "I knew you'd find fault with me."
"But I didn't expect you to be so shameless."
"Didn't I just make it clear to you? The surveillance footage has captured everything perfectly clearly."
"After those stupid students threw a ton of fish food into it, the silver arowana got stuck on the spot and died very quickly."
"The evidence is conclusive; you can't deny it!"
"I don't care if you're a security guard or a student, either raise the money quickly to settle this matter, or we'll immediately take this to the school."
"Only when the time comes will we know who looks bad."
Seeing that Manager Wu was full of confidence and had victory in his grasp.
Chen Huan, however, appeared increasingly calm.
Pointing to the silver arowana, he said, "This fish actually has parasites, and that's the fatal reason."
"Just cut this fish open, and you'll see I'm right."
"Going to court is definitely necessary, but the final result may not be what you want."
Manager Wu stared intently at Chen Huan.
It seemed they wanted to judge from his expression whether what he had just said was true.
After failing to detect any flaws, he chose to reprimand in a more forceful manner, saying, "You think you can just cut it open like that?"
"I think you're just trying to destroy the evidence. Don't embarrass yourself in front of me with such a small trick."
"I've played more games than you've ever seen."
Chen Huan didn't bother with further explanation and replied directly, "Actually, we both know perfectly well that this so-called silver dragonfish is worth at most a few hundred thousand."
"Even if it really goes to court and goes to the court, the amount will only be this much."
Manager Wu's expression changed, clearly showing a hint of nervousness and guilt.
Chen Huan had clearly struck a nerve with her.
Taking the opportunity, Chen Huan added, "I can come up with tens or hundreds of thousands."
"But I can't just give you this money because you say you want it."
"Let me dissect this fish on the spot. If it doesn't have serious parasite problems that could be fatal, I'll pay the compensation."
Manager Wu scrutinized Chen Huan closely. "Do you have that much money?"
Chen Huan shouted directly to the other end of the corridor, "Sun Changsheng, go to my car and get 200,000 yuan."
Chen Huan's net worth is now over several hundred million.
He drives a luxury car worth tens of millions.
It's become the norm to keep hundreds of thousands of yuan in cash in your car at all times.
Soon, Sun Changsheng ran over, holding two hundred thousand yuan in his hands.
Manager Wu immediately checked the authenticity of the banknotes, then picked up the phone and walked aside, seemingly to consult his boss.
A short while later, he came back and said, "I dissected the fish as you instructed."
"If you can't prove what you're saying, we'll take the money."
"There are surveillance cameras here. Everything you said and did has been recorded in its entirety. No one can deny it."
Without any hesitation, Chen Huan tore open the plastic bag, took out a willow-leaf throwing knife, and easily split the entire silver arowana in half.
Such skillful and precise knife work amazed Sun Changsheng.
Manager Wu, who was standing to the side, was completely dumbfounded.
Before they could even react, they saw Chen Huan use the tip of his knife to lift a long, disgusting, noodle-like thing from the back of the silver dragonfish near its head.
"See that? That's a parasite."
"Although it's uncommon, it's deadly."
"They've already drilled into the fish's brain; that's the real fatal reason."
"Those students were just unlucky, they just happened to be there." Chen Huan waved the parasite in his hand, his expression somewhat amused.
Manager Wu's face was grim, clearly not expecting things to be as Chen Huan had said—that there was such a large parasite inside the silver arowana's body.
Just when Chen Huan thought the matter was over and he could help Zhang Biyun take the students away,
Manager Wu suddenly said, "You can only prove that the fish had parasites, but you can't prove that the parasites caused the silver arowana's death."
"So, either pay up or face a lawsuit."
Chen Huan frowned slightly. "Is it really that obvious? Are you still going to deny it?"
Manager Wu looked slightly embarrassed, but his attitude remained firm; he was determined to renege on his promise.
Sun Changsheng kept checking Chen Huan's expression.
They thought it best to use force and forcibly take the person away.
However, Chen Huan had his own considerations.
If this happened to me, I would have already punched the person.
But now that Zhang Biyun's professional identity is involved, we can't act recklessly.
He smiled slightly and said, "Well, no wonder you became a manager. You do have some ability."
"But don't get too cocky."
"This parasite can never exist alone."
"So the other valuable platinum arowana in your fish tank must have been infected as well."
"He could die at any time."
"I don't know if your boss really likes these two fish, but if both silver arowanas die within a day, you, as the manager, will probably be in serious trouble, won't you?"
Manager Wu's expression changed drastically. "What nonsense are you spouting?"
"The other fish is perfectly fine!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than someone outside shouted, "Manager Wu, something terrible has happened! The other arowana has flipped belly up!"
