Going up the canal, migrating fish crowded under a waterfall that was a meter square foot, constantly surging.

The bicycle was parked on the side of the road, and the four of Zong Gu were standing on the cement ditches or stepping on the soil by the stream, all looking at the fish underneath.

The blue-black fish bodies were exposed to the water, crowded with each other, densely packed. The closer they were to the waterfall, the more fierce the competition was.

"So many fish..." Akane Kirino was closest to her, and I don't know how many times she repeated the same words.

Hongzi stood beside her and looked at her intently: "It's really a lot. I feel a little disgusting when I squeezed together... I'm about to stand up with goose bumps."

Zong Gu glanced at her, "Then you still see."

It seemed that she had been staring for too long and her eyes were dry. She finally blinked, "Although it felt a little disgusting, I just wanted to keep watching."

"I understand, I understand." Akane Kirino nodded repeatedly, "This is the so-called 'curiosity'."

"Uh-huh."

Zong Gu looked at the bottom, and there were at least hundreds of unknown fish gathered here along the water flow, and they were not small in size, filling the source of the canal, and there were many fish queuing up behind them.

The difference in height forms a waterfall. He can step up such a drop with just one foot, but it is a natural barrier for the swimming fish in the water, and no fish can jump above the waterfall.

"What kind of fish is this?"

"Are you a wild crucian carp?... It's not a carp anyway... it shouldn't be?"

Crucian carp and carp are of the same class, order and family, and are very similar. Akane Kirino didn't know much about it, so she couldn't be sure of it.

After looking for a while, she said, "Just take one and take a look."

"I didn't bring any tools, how can I get them?"

Akane Kirino looked around and saw that she could not even see a wooden stick except for two bicycles on the roadside.

"I'll go down and get it myself."

The water in the ditch is very shallow, only half a meter deep, but it is just a little turbulent.

Zong Gu shook his head, knowing that she would not give up on this plan easily, "I'd better go down."

"Be careful."

He took off his shoes, supported the cement walls on both sides, slowly stepped into the canal, and stood firm. The bottom of the water was already crowded, and at this time, his feet fell from the sky, and the surging fish crowded even harder.

After the heavy rain, the water flowed a little turbid and could not be seen clearly. The cool and slippery fish body was pressed against the calves and rubbed continuously. Zong Gu immediately had goose bumps.

"What's wrong?" Seeing that he stood still, Akane Kirino asked.

"fine……"

Zong Gu bent down, looked at it for a few seconds, reached out and sank into the water, and easily grabbed a blue-black fish on his legs.

Afraid that Akane Kirino couldn't catch it, he specially chose it. The fish he grabbed was not too big, and the force of his body swinging after being grabbed was within reach of control.

The fish body was slippery, and he grabbed it with both hands and observed it for a few more glances.

His interest in aquatic organisms is only about his desire for words and verbalism, and he also does not know any fish, but only thinks that it is not like the carp that he usually sees more.

He was observing, and the fish eyes were also staring at him, his body kept swaying, and the fish lips were wide open, slightly opening and closing.

"Let me go back, you stupid human, the ocean will conquer the world..."

“…”

Soya glanced at Akane Kirino who was pinching his throat and handed the fish over.

"Get it done."

"Uh-huh!"

She also grabbed it with both hands, for fear that it would break free. The moment she touched it, the cool and smooth feel made her shake.

"Wow... Hongzi, look..."

Exposed to the air, the fish swung its body violently, and Akane Kirino couldn't hold it with her hands, so she had to put it on the ground and watch it bounce on the ground.

"It should be a crucian carp." Hongzi used his mobile phone to search for pictures of crucian carp and compared it, and it felt that it was not much different.

"It's a crucian carp." Akane Kirito concluded, held the fish on the ground, grabbed it with some difficulty, and threw it back into the canal.

Just as Zong Gu was about to come up, she suddenly had other thoughts: "I have seen it on TV that salmon migrating to lay eggs. Are these crucian carp swimming upstream to breed upstream?"

"I guess so."

He looked at the crucian carp group at his feet. After only a few minutes, he had already adapted to the cool and smooth touch. "It can't be for fun."

"But they can't get up now." Akane Kirino pointed at the turbulent waterfall, "What should I do?"

"What else can I do? Of course I can only accept it."

Soya looked at her, "This is just an option. If Kirino had not been admitted to Dangao in the first place, he would have settled for the second best and went to another high school that was guaranteed."

Akane Kirino was stunned.

"These crucian carp are the same, or it is even more miserable, because Tongye can get into Dangao through hard work. No matter how hard they work, they can only be closer to the waterfall in the crowd. They are born in this unreturnable water area.

The fate of

She looked down at the crucian carp in the water, "It's really miserable..."

Zong Gu realized that he had said something extra, "Of course, this is just the idea of ​​us humans. And these crucian carp are just following their instincts."

"I want to change their fate."

"Only humans do this...what?"

Akane Kirino pointed to the natural trench on the waterfall, "I want to help them turn over."

“…”

After looking at the hundreds of crucian carp in the canal, Zong Gu felt that it would be more effective to let her retreat by seeing the difficulties.

"Then come on, I will witness it well next to you. Hongzi, remember to take a photo of Lord Kirio Ye, 'Crucian Carp', no, I need to record the video."

Hongzi smiled, took out her newly put away cell phone and pointed it at Akane Kirino.

“…”

Akane Kirino sticks out her tongue, grimaced at the camera, and whispers to Soya, "Songya is here to help me too."

Zong Gu bent down, picked up a lively crucian carp at his feet, threw it into the upstream river channel, and made a rustling sound, and then told her that what she could do was limited to this.

"One more?"

Zong Gu ignored it, supported his hands, lifted his body up, and climbed up.

Putting on his shoes, he said again: "Unless the river embankment is dug, this is the end of the migration of these crucian carp."

"Can't you dig it out?" asked Akane Kirino.

"Are you ready to be prosecuted?" Zong Gu asked back.

She curled her lips and muttered something, but he didn't hear it clearly.

Chao Wuling, who had been squatting by the canal, picked up a thin wooden stick with a quick-sized length next to him, and threw it into the canal: "Building a passage in the water can change their destiny."

Akane Kirino was stunned, and then her eyes lit up, "Yes!"

"But what should I use to build a passage?" She looked around, sweeping her eyes from the roadside to the bicycle, and then staring at the raincoat in the car basket for a few more glances. "It seems that there is nothing here."

He stood up at Wuling and pointed to the road he had just passed, "There is a wooden board in the grass over there. What I noticed when I came here just now may be useful."

Akane Kirino nodded, rode her bicycle and passed by. Her eyes swept through the grass on the roadside, and she quickly gained something.

She clamped the short wooden board she picked up and rode back.

"That's it."

"Um."

The wooden board in her hand seemed to have been removed from an old door panel. It was more than ten centimeters wide and less than half a meter long. It was soaked in rain and was a little black. When tapping it with knuckles, it could only make a dull sound.

Akane Kirino walked to the diversion of the stream and canal with a wooden board and looked at it, thinking about how to build the passage that changed fate. "A wooden board seems not enough..."

"Stone?" Hongzi behind him suddenly said.

She turned around and saw Zong Gu bringing a considerable stone from across the road.

Putting the stone by the canal, he took off his shoes again.

"Give me."

Akane Kirino handed him the wooden board.

Put the wooden board at the outlet of the cement culvert, and the falling waterfall immediately became much smaller, and most of the stream water flowed down the wooden board.

"It's really a little shorter," said Akane Kirino. The length of the wooden board is limited, one end is placed on the cement culvert and the other end is placed in the canal, and the angle formed is a bit steep.

"Enough."

Zong Gu stepped on the wooden board with one foot, fixed it, and lifted the stone again.

"Not every salmon can return to the place where it was originally born as it wishes. Luck is important, and his own ability is even more important."

Akane Kirino seems to understand, "Oh..."

Before the wooden board was placed, crucian carp had already swam upwards with the water flow, and most of them were washed down by the water flow halfway, or they were lost, and they were empty and fell back into the canal.

With a stone pressing against the low end of the wooden board, Zong Gu bent down and made some minor adjustments to ensure that the wooden board will not fall off in a short period of time before climbing back to the shore.

"You're satisfied."

"I still think the board is too steep." Akane Kirino looked at the board that changed the stream, "Are there really fish that can go upstream at this angle...ah!"

A crucian carp swam up in front of her, plunged into the cement culvert, and disappeared.

She hurried to the exit of the other end of the cement culvert, lowered her head and waited, and soon jumped and looked back at the other half of the three.
