A chubby young man looked at his friend with eyes that looked so annoyed. His eyes widened so wide. He pointed at a wet package. Water was still dripping from the package onto the floor.
"Do not ask me." One of his friends, who was standing not far from him, immediately shook his head with such a strong movement. He was a young man wearing a dark green shirt. He wears glasses with very thick lenses.
"Then, who should I ask?" The young man who was annoyed earlier said that sentence in a curt tone.
"Ask him." The young man in the dark green shirt immediately pointed at another person, who was also there.
"Eh? I know nothing about this either." The person he pointed at immediately showed a displeased face. He was a young man of nearly thirty years of age. He was wearing a very odd-shaped hat. A strange hat like that only added to his oddity. He wore a bright yellow shirt.
"Of course you do." The young man with thick glasses let out a voice with a tone that was no less curt. "You've been going out to sea with those people since yesterday."
"I just went on the boat with them. But I didn't go fishing. When they were busy working, I was also busy with my own business. Most of the time, I was just in the cabin. I had no idea what was going on out there. "
"But the fact is that you went out to sea with them. So, out of the three of us, you are the one who knows the most about this."
"I told you I don't know anything." The young man wearing the hat persisted. "There's nothing I can explain to you!"
"What are you all fussing about?" Another young man suddenly entered the room. He was very neatly dressed. Much tidier than the three people who had been in the room.
"I was just wondering why this thing had to be put here." The chubby young man, once again, pointed his finger at the wet package that was sitting there.
"Ah!" The young man who had just arrived tilted his head. He studied it. "Things like this shouldn't be here. Wouldn't this just make this place dirty?"
"It means you agree with me." The plump young man's face still did not change.
"So why was this thing put here?" The well-dressed young man looked at the three people who were there.
"That's exactly what I've been asking." The chubby young man snorted loudly. "But he doesn't want to explain at all." He pointed at the young man wearing the hat.
"This thing is from that ship, right?" The well-dressed young man looked straight at the young man with the strange hat.
The young man in the hat nodded. "But I know nothing about this."
"Because since yesterday you were the one with those people, it is your obligation to tell us. I know you know little about their activities. But at least, there are things you must have observed before."
"Okay." The young man took off his hat. He put the hat on the table to his right.
The other three people waited for the young man to continue his words.
"They didn't manage to catch many fish. I don't know why, but it seems the fish that should be there have migrated elsewhere."
"Then?" The young man in the dark green shirt looked impatient.
"They only caught a few fish. They said it was only a tenth of what they usually get."
"Then, this package?" The chubby young man's eyes were still piercingly sharp.
"They got some other stuff. Somehow, some stuff got caught in their net. This parcel is one of those things."
"Then why did they put this thing here?" The neatly dressed young man inched closer to one chair that was there.
"I don't know." The young man in the yellow shirt shrugged. "They took all that stuff with them except this package. I don't know why they put it here. Maybe they thought I was also asking for a ration of the stuff they got."
"What's in this package?" The young man with thick glasses crouched down to take a closer look at the package.
"How about we just open it up?" The well-dressed young man spoke while sitting on a chair that looked so comfortable to sit on.
The bespectacled young man then opened the package. His friend, a chubby young man, came to help. There were layers of plastic covering it. When they finally opened the last layer, they found a box that was completely dry.
"How do we open this box?" The bespectacled youth frowned. "This is a locked box. And I don't see any keys in here."
Witnessing that, two other people, namely the young man in the yellow shirt and the young man who was neatly dressed, came over. The four of them sat on the floor, surrounding the object.
"Perhaps this is the key." A voice sounded.
The four people looked up. They saw a young girl coming into the room. She held up a key.
"Where did you get the key?" The young man in the dark green shirt looked at him with a sharp gaze.
"Those people gave it to me." The girl walked closer. "They said the key was tied to the package. It was accidentally taken with them."
"All right! Let's try it." The young man in the green shirt held out his hand.
And it was. The key is indeed the key to the box. With great care, they opened the box made of very hard wood.
"Eh? It contains books!" exclaimed the bespectacled youth.
"What are these books?" The young man in yellow reached out to take one book.
"Let's just read it first." The young man in green also took one book.
After that, the other three people also did the same thing. The number of books in the box exactly matched their number. An instant later, each of them had started to turn to the first page.
"Eh! It seems these books are books that are one unit. We have to read it from the beginning. Who has the first volume?" The chubby young man looked left and right.
"That's enough." The young man in yellow shook his palms. "You just read the book that is now in your hand. Later we exchange books."
"How could that be?" The chubby young man looked so annoyed.
"Would you like to exchange books with me?" The girl, who arrived last, held out her hand.
"Is that book you're holding volume one?"
The girl shook her head.
"Ah! All right!" The fat young man finally relented.
