I thought my life was going to end like this. However, when I opened my eyes, there was no surging river water surrounding me.

I took deep breaths of fresh air and touched my own face.

Except for my stubble, there was nothing on my face. I looked at my hands. Only then did I feel relieved. It turned out I had a horrifying dream. It scared me to death.

But as soon as I turned around, I met the gaze of a burly man with a big gold chain around his neck, a black leather bag tucked under his armpit, and a cigarette in his mouth.

He directly threw a bag onto the fish-cutting board in front of me.

The water in the bag rushed out. In just two seconds, the water was gone.

I saw a fish jumping nonstop inside the bag. It was quite big, easily weighing around ten jin.

I was startled, as this was exactly the scene from my dream.

I quickly picked up the bag containing the fish, put on a smile, and wanted to return it to him.

"Brother, I'm sorry. If you don't buy fish from me, I won't kill any other fish."

However, just like in my dream, he took out the leather bag from his armpit and pulled out a 100 yuan note, throwing it directly onto my cutting board.

I picked it up casually. A chill ran down my spine. Even the serial number on the bill was exactly the same as in my dream.

I immediately stuffed the money back and, at that moment, I heard the sound of a baby coming from the bag. The fish inside the bag was also moving around.

Soon, the fish broke through the bag and fell to the ground.

"Oh, this fish is actually red."

"This isn't a fish; it's a protected animal, a golden dollfish. No wonder it was put in a black bag. This is illegal."

Other customers started discussing. My mind turned into mush in an instant. This fish was different!

Although the guy in front of me looked tough, I couldn't commit a crime and go to jail for a hundred bucks.

I immediately called the police and didn't let the person leave. I finally breathed a sigh of relief when the police took away the golden dollfish and the person.

Spring Yao, my wife next to me, looked at me. For some reason, I saw contentment in her eyes.

I shook my head. Dreams and reality are always different...
