［No, no! We're well-fed and won't fight that guy for small fish.］
The otter family nodded obediently. Listening to Little Xu Station Chief, with plenty of whole fish feasts to eat, they wouldn't brawl with the troublesome fish in the water.
Otter Dad and Otter Mom took the rope and went underwater together.
Captain Zhang mentioned that there's a buckle on the probe; you just need to hook the curve into the buckle to secure the rope onto the instrument.
The eldest cub served as a scout for its parents, observing the situation underwater.
With a few splashes, the three otters dove in unison, and Xu Ying's heart tensed up along with them.
Time ticked by second by second.
The otter family of three emerged from the water. [Little Xu Station Chief, we've secured the rope!]
Only the eldest cub seemed less lively when it surfaced, looking quite scared.
The otter parents groomed its head fur gently with their paws to comfort it.
