Chapter 248 Reinforcement

“Where will we go next?”

"There is not much fuel left, it's only enough to explore another island."

"Buzz buzz buzz ~"

The propeller stirs the air and makes a whistling sound, and the heat from the engine's high-speed rotation is also taken away by the backward flowing air.

Amid the roaring propeller sound, Hoggs turned his head and said to Lorraine.

Of course, the fuel in the fuel tank can make Karina fly further, but the pilot of any aircraft will not only consider one-way flight distance, and Hoggs will also leave enough fuel to return to Hawaii.

Moreover, he was also hinting that Lorraine's employment is almost over and that if it continues tomorrow, he naturally needs to prepare enough Franklin.

"Next, Blackpot Island."

Without looking up, Lorraine could have heard what Hoggs said, but now is not the time to consider whether to continue looking for it from the air tomorrow.

His fingers moved on the Hawaii map and soon landed on a small island more than 50 kilometers on the southern coast of Oahu, and then said in a deep voice.

So, under the efforts of Hogs, the old plane Karina drew a graceful arc, faced the violent sea breeze, and flew towards the position given by Lorraine, performing the last flight around the island today.

…………

The wind is howling outside the shelter, and the waves are calm inside the shelter.

Three big trees have grown on the island for a long time, with deep roots and lush leaves. At the same time, the bamboo leaves walls and branches woven by Catherine are tied firmly with vines, and the strong wind at night cannot cause any harm.

When the east turned white, the strong wind that had been howling all night finally fell and turned into a breeze.

"Beautiful, orange~, early, very cute~"

As he beat Hache, he added half a bottle of fresh water to the remaining soup last night, and Katherine lit a bonfire and cooked breakfast.

While licking the bottom of the glass pan while licking the bonfire, Catherine untied the vines tied to the bamboo leaf wall and walked into the beach full of ocean in the morning.

"Hey, orange, come out soon."

Even in the blur of just awakening, Catherine immediately felt the difference between the coast and yesterday - she shouted immediately, so she didn't sleep well all night. Ron, who was squatting beside the fire pit, stood up helplessly and walked out of the shelter.

The scene outside the shelter immediately made Ron's eyes widen and he was completely sleepy. The beach where conch wriggled in the past was already full of dead branches and leaves; the clear coast covered with large scallops not long ago became turbid.

In the distant sea, huge waves hit fiercely one by one, and dark clouds were everywhere, as if the devil was smiling and obscuring the sky.

“Meow!”

Katherine, we have to do something!

Although only the breeze blows through the shelter at this moment, Ron has an extremely bad premonition when he looks at the huge waves in the sea and the dark clouds in the distance.

He made a cry that represented the desire to express to Catherine, who was staring around him. Before Ron walked to the shelter, his hair claws began to slide on a piece of white sand. Since he was wandering on the deserted island, Ron showed his wisdom comparable to humans and his ability to write English letters in front of Catherine, Catherine specially laid a layer of fine sand for Ron next to the shelter as Ron's writing tool.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah..."

The fluent fine sand slides under the claws. Whenever a line of text is written, Ron will smooth out the fine sand and write again. Catherine next to him nods from time to time to show that she understands what Ron wants to express.

"Gulululu~"

By the time Ron finished writing the last sentence, the warm and delicious fish soup had boiled again, emitting a strong smell.

…………

Only when they are full can they have the energy to work. With the support of this belief, Ron and Catherine ate the remaining half pot of soup last night, and the hamster is so cute that he also helped to eliminate several palm cores.

"Dongdongdongdongdong~"

Eat hard and work hard.

Referring to the key points described by Ron before the meal, Catherine cut many relatively thick and tall branches from the woods, and cut them out of the pointed heads one by one. With Ron's support and help, he knocked stones into the bamboo leaf wall of the shelter with stones, and then used vines to wrap the branches and three big trees into a whole, leaving only a small piece of bamboo leaf wall that can be moved as the entrance and exit.

After strengthening the wall, Catherine and Ron did two more things - first, digging a drainage ditch in the sand one meter away from the shelter, combined with the location of the shelter, it can effectively prevent the rain from rushing into the shelter.

Second, Catherine and Ron went to the jungle again. Ron climbed trees to pick fruits. Catherine picked them up from below, and went back and forth many times, filling the second floor of the shelter with food except for the sleeping place.

Of course, the first floor of the shelter is also useful, because cooking food requires firewood. The first floor of the shelter is filled with firewood, and all coconut shells and plastic bottles that can hold water are filled with fresh water.

All day, each person and a cat were working tirelessly in front of the cute and black little eyes of the hamster. Even for lunch, they simply baked a few bread fruits and cooked some broth.

But let alone, take a bite of the whole roasted breadfruit with a stick on the fire, and then drink a large mouthful of hot soup, and your stomach will be warm all of a sudden.

And you can also tear off the hot toast fruit like mutton soaking buns, soak them in the broth, and then absorb the rich soup and stuff them into your mouth with big mouths. So while you chew, the broth burst out from the chewy toast fruit, impacting the taste buds.

…………

Dinner was just as simple, but after dinner, Catherine took the risk of getting water and groping in the turbid sea water to grab some shellfish. At this time, Catherine and Ron no longer paid attention to whether they were delicious big scallops, as long as they could eat them.

Moreover, there is no pool next to the shelter to raise shellfish, and Catherine and Ron have no experience in raising shellfish, so the fate of these shellfish has been confirmed, that is, they are roasted to be made into dry goods by the fire pit and become part of the three-person reserved food.

So, when night fell again, Ron and Catherine took a last look at the sky that had been mostly covered by dark clouds, tied the door of the shelter firmly with vines, and began to [retreat].

The wind began to whistle~; the rain fell with it.

The crackling sound of impact sounded on the bamboo leaf wall, and the struggle between the waves and the reefs made this small double-layer shelter extremely warm.

Just the slightly burning firewood in the fire pit - although it stored several square meters of firewood that occupied most of the shelter, it still had to be saved - Catherine suddenly picked up Ron who was squatting next to her.

There was a slight sob, and Ron heard Catherine's sob breath.

"Orange, I miss home, my parents, and Lorraine..."

“Meow~”

Don't worry, we'll be found ~

The hair claws poked out from Catherine's arms, and Ron gently patted Catherine's forehead.

Just as Ron comforted Catherine, Ron's ears suddenly twisted to the same place, and then something slapped the bamboo leaf wall of the shelter.

"Smack, fuck~"
