Chapter 239 The hurricane is coming

It has been three days since the Manta Ray rescued the dead tourists at sea. During these three days, Lorraine almost never closed her eyes. She stayed on the deck and carefully observed the sea.

Although Catherine and Ron were not found, nearly one-third of the tourists rescued by Manta were discovered by Lorraine.

This is also the reason why Lorraine and her group were able to stay on the Manta Ray rescue ship - Lorraine also thought she could stay on the Manta Ray until she found Katherine.

After all, the Manta Ray is the best rescue ship in the entire Hawaii and has been rescued in the waters where Catherine and Ron are missing.

However, after watching the news broadcast on the ship's satellite TV, the old captain took the Nanmu pipe from the corner of his mouth, walked out of the cabin, sniffed the pipe on the side of the ship, and then slowly opened his mouth.

“We have to return.”

“Return?”

Lorraine was stunned for a moment, then immediately understood - he had just watched the news: Hurricane Irena, who was originally expected to pass through the distant waters of Hawaii, seemed to have taken a fancy to the beautiful Hawaii and wanted to rest on this group of islands.

But Lorraine still needs to continue working hard.

"Captain, can you search it?"

"Please, Captain!"

He sucked a deep pipe, covering the rich white smoke with his beard and face, and the old captain's voice came from the smoke.

"Lorraine, I know you care about your missing sister."

"But I can't take the life of the crew on the entire boat and take the risk with you."

"They are all good people, and there are family members waiting for them to come home safely."

"I can only say sorry, Lorraine."

The old captain's answer made Lorraine cover her face - she still searched and rescued for three days, and Lorraine knew that the hope was getting slim, but he still didn't want to give up.

Behind him, tears from Christina and Molly immediately flowed out.

"Rise the anchor! Turn left and turn rudder by 130 degrees!"

"Garlala~"

The sound of iron chains rubbing against the ship's side and the shouts of the first mate came. Looking at the sky where dark clouds were already floating for several minutes, the old captain silently took several sips of his pipe, and then turned his head toward the three people who were crying and sad.

"Lorraine."

"Although the rescue ship is about to return."

"However, in this weather, the plane can fly for another one to two days."

"You can hire a plane to look for it."

"Three days have passed. If it has not been swallowed by the sea, maybe your sister is already on a small island near Hawaii."

"Of course, this is my experience. As for what you do, I have no right to interfere."

After saying that, the old captain ignored Lorraine and the other two, but turned around and walked into the cabin - the hurricane began to approach, and he needed to lead the crew back to the port safely.

As he said, the crew members are good people, and he must give priority to ensuring their safety.

Although Lorraine and the other two failed to get the old captain to agree to patrol again, the old captain's experience made the three of them see a glimmer of hope.

They had already started planning and immediately rented a plane when they returned to Oahu. Before Hurricane Irena approached, they could still search the islands around Oahu and try to find the traces of Catherine and Ron.

…………

The sun completely jumped out of the sea level and sprinkled the sunlight on the clouds all over the sky. Immediately all the clouds seemed to turn into light mist, making the entire sky look like heaven. Then, such light fell on the sea level, making the entire sea surface burn and evaporated.

"Orange, get up!"

"What a beautiful sunrise!"

"Look, look over there!"

As morning approaches, excited Catherine drags Ron's hind legs out of the shelter and sees the beautiful sunrise.

Such beautiful scenery is simply invisible in Los Angeles - although the Diesel family is in the relatively low and leisurely Orange County area, it is still a distance from the coast.

Moreover, the waters in Los Angeles and the waters in Hawaii are not comparable, although they are both in the same Pacific Ocean.

“Meow~”

No, don't watch ~

This meow still wants to sleep~

Meowing, Ron let Catherine drag her, and the hair claws that slightly poked out their claws and made two long drag marks on the beach. Yesterday, he had a fierce battle with the small bay crocodile. Ron's body is still a little sore and numb. This is the result of using the Crouching Tiger Stump to transport the qi and blood.

However, when Ron was dragged across the beach, there were more footprints on the beach than the night before, and Ron even saw several footprints larger than his slap.

It's a bit like a dog's footprint, and a bit like a plum blossom from the cat family - obviously there is a beast living on this small island, but it's just that Ron and Catherine haven't encountered it yet.

This further strengthened Ron's heart to speed up the construction of a new shelter.

"Show me!"

Katherine, looking at the beautiful scenery, naturally didn't know what Ron was thinking. She sat on the beach, picked up Ron, and turned his head towards the rising sun.

Immediately, a brilliant light shot into Ron's eyes, as well as the dolphins that turned into light mist and fog in the sky jumped out of the water and played with each other.

“Meow~”

Really beautiful ~

Hidden in the distance of clouds like fog, there are clouds as large as mountains, with blurry appearances, and below them are ears hanging like tablecloths.

“Meow~”

OK, Katherine, it's time for us to work ~

After seeing the beautiful sunrise, Ron and Catherine once again enthusiastically devoted themselves to the construction of the new shelter - woven into thick rain-proof and air-proof walls with wide bamboo leaves and strips, hanging them one by one on the brackets that had been built before. In just half a day, a cottage was built.

In order to cook food in the shelter, Catherine, who was skillful, specially moved the kang into the cottage and designed a flue and air outlet so that the smoke from the kang could be emitted at any time.

Even in order to see the situation outside in the hut, Catherine made windows of the ancient Dragon Kingdom on the three walls woven by bamboo leaves - this was all thought out by herself when Catherine had never seen the ancient buildings of the Long Kingdom, which made Ron amazed.

But Ron is not bad either. While Katherine was working hard to build a shelter, Ron went to the jungle again.

This time, he finally encountered a pretty satisfactory prey - a fat bamboo rat.

It was a big rat weighing about ten pounds, with a pair of fat front teeth, and a relative to the beaver.

As usual, peeled and grilled, and threw the internal organs away to feed the seagulls. Ron and Catherine's grain reserves were once again raised to three days' level.

In addition, one person and one cat picked another dozen coconuts and put them in a new bamboo and wood shelter, and life began to become better.
