Chapter 30: take your Underwear off.
As the sun gradually descended to sea level, the dark sky swallowed the last traces of its hot brilliance, leaving behind only the moon and dozens of stars emitting a cold light.
However, for Zhang Liu, Qin Rushuang, and Anya, the beautiful night sky was not the focus. The most important thing was enjoying the dinner in front of them!
Coconut milk, jiabao fruit with coconut meat, kelp-stewed fish head, grilled fish livers, and fish skewers were on the menu. After careful discussion, they unanimously decided to save the grilled fish tail for breakfast the next day.
On the third night on the desert island, they finally had hot food that could truly fill their stomachs, a welcome change from the raw and cold coconut milk and coconut meat.
"Finally... can we eat it?" Anya, sitting between Zhang Liu and Qin Rushuang, had her eyes on the fish skewers by the fire.
Unlike Zhang Liu, who hesitated to eat raw fish heads, Anya, born in Japan, had no objections to eating raw fish. If not for Zhang Liu's persuasion, she would have already indulged.
"It should be... almost finished, right?" Feeling Anya's desire, Zhang Liu hesitated. Not sure how to judge the doneness, he continued grilling.
Cutting with the makeshift metal tool proved challenging, often crushing the fish's back meat instead of slicing it thin. Despite being called fish skewers, they were essentially large pieces of fish grilled over the fire.
"Actually, it shouldn't be a big problem. I remember that many fish can be eaten raw," Qin Rushuang said, showing her anticipation for the fish.
"I'll go first!" Anya, sensing hesitation from Zhang Liu and Qin Rushuang, grabbed a skewer of grilled fish liver and took a bite.
But she was also reluctant to spit it out. She opened her mouth and said "Hachi, Hachi" like a panting puppy.
"It's definitely edible!" Anya affirmed before eagerly biting into another piece. Zhang Liu and Qin Rushuang exchanged smiles, appreciating Anya's newfound gentleness.
Then, Zhang Liu picked up a skewer of cod liver, put it in his mouth, and began to chew.
Zhang Liu had never eaten any raw fish liver before.
After he bit into his mouth, he only had one thought: this thing had a fishy smell.
It tasted like eating a ball of leftover lard with a fishy smell.
It is not as unpalatable as river fish waste, but it is certainly not delicious. However, it contains oil and water and tastes very smooth.
Qin Rushuang had tasted the raw fish liver in Japanese food, and all she could say about the grilled fish liver was that it was delicious, and her weak body needed this kind of hot protein food.
After eating the fish liver, come the fish skewers.
There was a lot of meat on the back of the fish, so Zhang Liu made nine skewers, three for each person.
Although there is no salt, the taste is a little lacking.
But at this time, hunger had already become the best seasoning.
The kelp fish soup has a slightly salty taste.
Although the soup and fish are also very fishy, as long as you hold your breath before swallowing, you can enjoy the delicious taste.
As for the remaining fishy smell in the mouth, you can cover it by eating fruits or drinking coconut water.
However, the shell's ability to conduct heat truly made Zhang Liu helpless. After cooking for an entire evening, the fish head was not completely cooked.
In the end, he chose to use pebbles to boil water and drop the hot stones into the fish soup.
After being heated by the fire below and heated by the stones inside, the kelp and fish head soup is barely finished before the meal.
As for the appearance, it can only be described as shocking.
After eating and drinking, Qin Rushuang and Anya were busy peeling the jiabao fruits, removing their seeds, and putting them in small oyster shells as an after-meal fruit.
On the other hand, Zhang Liu was meticulously collecting the three people's kitchen waste, throwing the fish bones, fish skewers, wooden sticks, etc., into the fire to burn them all.
As for the huge shell used as a soup bowl, he also had to throw it away because its bottom had been burned to carbonation.
"Eat the fruit." Zhang Liu finished cleaning and was looking at the fire in a daze when Qin Rushuang had already placed the fruit next to him.
After turning his head and looking at him for a while, Zhang Liu also began to think about how to deal with the two pink spots on the girl's chest.
Qin Rushuang felt Zhang Liu's concentration and subconsciously extended her hand to cover her chest.
But after hesitating for half a second, she lowered her hand again, then simply sat down next to the other party.
Falmes of fire were flying through the air, just like Qin Rushuang's mood at the moment.
Very messy.
"Why are you crying?" Zhang Liu asked in confusion, pulling her thoughts back and calling to Anya, who was struggling with the coconut meat.
"Am I crying?" Tears had been flowing down her cheeks for a long time, without her knowing it. Qin Rushuang extended her hand and touched her face, which was already wet.
She bent her legs and hugged her knees with her hands, allowing her breasts to be squeezed and distorted against her thighs.
Qin Rushuang turned her head and looked at Anya, then at Zhang Liu, and finally whispered, "Is there no hope of saving us?"
Hearing this, Anya was stunned for a moment, then continued with the coconut meat with her head down. But even though the thick, snow-white coconut meat accumulated inside the coconut shell and she pressed the coin against it until the water came out, she did not pick up another piece and put it in her mouth. Just keep picking up the clean coconut inside.
"Theoretically, there is." Zhang Liu carefully looked at the two girls next to him, then said seriously, "That doesn't mean that if no one comes within seventy-two hours, there will be no rescue."
The best time to search for and rescue an accident is seventy-two golden hours, which is what he said to calm the two girls before. Zhang Liu also knew that rescue had not arrived during the day today. That was why he did his best to cook and eat most of the fish tonight in order to improve the team's overall morale. but now...
He looked at the two girls next to him; one of them was depressed, and the other was close to being depressed.
"Hey…" Zhang Liu sighed deeply, then said, "I think it's necessary for the three of us to have a serious meeting!"
"What meeting?" After hearing Zhang Liu's words, Qin Rushuang remained silent, while Anya gave a simple reaction and asked reluctantly.
"A meeting about how we can live on this island in the future." Zhang Liu looked at Qin Rushuang's chest again. At this moment, under the campfire, the two pink dots were no longer completely clear. However, he was also able to determine the approximate location from memory.
If we don't deal with it, there will be big problems! Such thoughts flashed through Zhang Liu's mind while he was still in his teens.
After a few seconds of silence, he turned to Anya and asked, "Anya, are you wearing underwear?"
Hearing this, she first raised her head and was stunned for a moment, then covered her chest with both hands. Her eyes immediately became very wary.
Anya kicked her legs violently and shrank backward about two meters until she hit the stone wall. Then she looked at Zhang Liu and asked, "Why do you ask?"
"Huh?" Zhang Liu was stunned by Anya's heated speech. After hesitating for a few seconds, he explained, "I didn't mean that. I thought if you were wearing underwear, you could take your undr..."
"Nooooo!" Without waiting for Zhang Liu to speak, Anya refused loudly, covering her chest, her voice becoming smaller and smaller. "Why did you say that in front of Qin Rushuang, and... it is too early for this kind of thing..."
By the end of the sentence, Anya's voice was too low to be heard, but her little face turned red. In the end, her small hands were no longer covering her chest but moved straight up to cover her cheeks. Qin Rushuang, who was in a state of silence next to them, also looked up after hearing the conversation between the two. The expression of silence and depression on her face began to turn into one of surprise.
