The person on the fish's back was wearing a diving helmet, making it hard to see their face, but Mr. Song still recognized them right away, exclaiming in alarm, "Suming!"
Hearing Mr. Song's cry, the person on the fish's back took off their helmet with one hand, revealing a grinning face – who else could it be but Suming!
As soon as Suming emerged from the water, he saw a large crowd of people gathered on the boat, staring at him open-mouthed. He was momentarily stunned, but quickly understood what had happened – these people must have thought he was in trouble.
Without further ado, he removed his helmet and rode the big fish in a wide circle on the water's surface, waving to the people on several boats around him and calling out loudly, "I'm fine, how about you all!"
The enthusiastic greeting was met with no response!
