I haven't done anything to prepare for that.

Mark confessed, "No, I have not prepared for anything like this." Thinking rapidly, he collected a small gadget from his vehicle—a vibration detector. Positioning it on the catfish's back, he explained that the device would sense any water movements and transmit them to his car's computer. The officers questioned how this would assist. Mark disclosed that detectors had been placed around the lake. If the criminals returned to discard more stolen items, the sensors would identify their position. Mark and the authorities promptly implemented their strategy.

All the jewels were removed.

Mark meticulously extracted all the diamonds and precious stones from the fish's mouth, releasing the creature safely back into the water. That evening, the sensors registered a spike in vibrations throughout the lake. Mark and an officer waited in their vehicle, radios prepared, while more than fifty police officers encircled the location. At 1:52 a.m., a significant disturbance was detected on the northwest shoreline. Officers raced to the coordinates and, within moments, captured the perpetrators and recovered the remaining stolen merchandise. Mark was recognized by the mayor as an exemplary citizen, and his remarkable tale spread throughout the region. The modest fisherman who retrieved over $54 million from the depths became a local hero, all because of the world's largest freshwater fish. Truly, an extraordinary adventure!
