✦ Synopsis

There is an old Russian story about a young man called Yemelya who once went to fill a bucket with water, and caught a large pike. He was surprised, but took it home to make fish soup. Suddenly the pike said to him in Russian "Put me back in the water and I'll be useful to you any time you ask".

Yemelya returned the pike to the water and from that time on he could get anything -oceanographic data from all over the world. So may scientists discover such a fish that will tell them (in English, Russian, French, German and so on) all the secrets of the ocean.
