The strays fled like drowned dogs, while Hook touched the hole machine, looking like he had forgotten about Father Fesman and couldn't let it go.

Xia Zhihui walked over and asked with concern:

"Uncle Fishman, are you okay?"

"It's okay, I'm well protected by Hook and this guy."

Looking at Xing with a proud expression on his face, Xia Zhihui shook his head and introduced

"This is the Galaxy Batman."

Fissman looked confused, and Xia Zhihui added

"You can call her a star, a star in the sky"

"Oh, Miss Xing, thank you for your help. I hope Hook didn’t cause you any trouble?"

"Humph! Hook won't cause trouble to Xing, she is an honorary member of the Mole Party!"

Xing nodded with a smile, agreeing with Hook's opinion.

Hook climbed directly onto the hole machine and sat down. His two short legs swayed in front of the screen, and his big hat swayed.

"Dad, let's go back to Panyan Town as soon as possible. You haven't been back for a long time!"

"Sorry, Hook, I can't do that now. During the fight between the Rangers and the Mining Team, someone stole my mine detector."

"I have to go look for it while everyone is still in the camp."

Hook's hopeful eyes suddenly dimmed, and he lowered his head and said pitifully

""Okay."

Xing reminded her.

"How about we help Father Fishman find it together?"

Hook looked up happily, and without waiting for Fishman's response, he said

""Okay, okay!"

Usually, the old witch Natasha rarely allowed her to come to the big mining area for adventure. This time, with Xing and Xia Zhihui following her, she could finally have a good time in the big mining area.

No, how can this be called playing?

It's obviously to help Father Fesman find lost items!

But Fesman was worried. Hook was still too young. What if he got lost in the big mining area?

He asked tentatively.

"Or, should we go back to Panyan Town?"

Xia Zhihui also shook his head.

"It's okay, Uncle Fishman, the upgraded version of the hole machine will protect Little Hook."

Xing shrugged his little nose

"And I will protect the dark Lord Hook!"

Fisman thought for a moment and nodded.

This is good, more people means more strength. Although Hook is young, he is very capable.

And Xia Zhihui is also here, he will definitely not watch Hook get into trouble.

"In this case, let me explain the whole story."

"I have a vein detector in my hand. Its function is just as the name suggests, which is to detect veins. This is a treasure I picked up when I was young. It is probably something left over from the third to fifth generation of Great Guardians. It should be an ancient relic used by the mining team to detect the earth veins."

"Since the blockade of the upper and lower areas, the erosion of the Rift has become more and more serious. Hook and I have to leave our home and become wanderers."

"Later, I sent Hook to the Children's Commune under the charge of President Xia, and I stayed in the large mining area for a long time to look for mineral veins, selling the information to wanderers or mining teams, making a profit from the difference, and buying some things for the Children's Commune."

Xing looked at Xia Zhihui, and he nodded.

"Well, many children in the Children's Commune have their clothes bought by Uncle Fishman. He is not only Hook's father, but also the common father of all the children."

"Although you haven't seen him before, when he returns to Panyan Town to rest, he can come to the cafeteria to eat with you."

Can come to the cafeteria to eat? Xing was in awe.

"Uncle Fishman, please continue."

"Well, because I was a wanderer for a while, those wanderers thought I was in the same group with them. I was taken care of by them at that time, so I sold many small mineral veins directly to them."

"Some time ago, I discovered a super large mineral vein, the largest I have found in many years. I concealed this news and told Antonina in Panyan Town."

"The lower-level areas surrender their earth marrow, and the upper-level areas will release resources. The more they surrender, the more they will be released. Of course, I know this most basic information."

"So in order to transform this large mineral vein into resources as quickly as possible, I chose to sell this news to Antonina, the foreman of a team of miners in Panyan Town who had the strongest development capabilities."

"And this group of wanderers thought that I was eating alone and betrayed them, so they came to trouble me."

"The mining team also denied their claim, but the Rangers got the news of the large mineral vein from somewhere, secretly followed them to get the specific address, and guarded against development, which led to the last melee."

"The mine detector was lost in the last melee."

Hook jumped off the drilling machine and hugged Fesman's thigh.

"Dad, Hook thinks you are doing the right thing! Hook supports you!"

Fissman bent down and hugged the little girl.

""Thank you, Hook. I don't feel any pain in my waist or legs now. How about we go back to Rock Town?"

He was about to back out again. He couldn't let such a sensible daughter get hurt in the big mining area.

Hook raised his head in his arms.

"What about the mineral vein detector?"

"That thing doesn't matter now."

""Ah? Dad, why?"

Fesman let go of Hook and held her smooth little face with both hands.

The stubble spread from his temples to his chin, and his gray hair stubbornly stretched out from the big brim of his hat. The wrinkles on his face were deeper than Hook remembered.

Hook suddenly understood something. Her father Fesman, who used to be strong, had begun to grow old.

Fesman looked at the dazed Hook and comforted him.

"Hook, Daddy is almost unable to work, but in the past few years, Daddy has made a lot of money"

"Whether the wanderers say I'm a traitor or the mining team says I'm selfish, it doesn't matter to me."

"Hook, the most important thing is that after I am gone, you can take this money to take care of yourself and live a good life."

The sudden topic of death was a bit beyond Hook's imagination. She could only lower her head and arch her head in Fesman's arms.

"Dad……"

"Dad, I will take good care of you!"

Fisman was very happy when he heard his daughter's promise.

"Okay, okay, then I'll have to wait for Hook to take care of me in the future!"

"But now, I have received the compensation from the mining team, and I have no regrets."

"Whether there is a mineral vein detector or not is not a big deal to me."

"Now it is better to have less trouble than more, and I am too lazy to pursue anything. As long as I can accompany little Hook, I will be very happy every day."

Hook turned around in Fesman's arms, leaned his back in his father's arms, and blinked at Xia Zhihui and Xing.
