Luo Jun, the three of them huddled together and warmed up their clothes. They also poured coconut juice and coconut meat into their steel helmets, and boiled some soup to warm up their stomachs.
At this time, Li Shi moved closer to Luo Jun and sat next to him.
"Uncle, when can we leave this place?" Li Shi asked Luo Jun.
Compared to drifting on the sea, land gave her a sense of security. She thought they could leave soon. Luo Jun didn't have the heart to disillusion the naive girl, he just smiled.
"Missing your boyfriend?"
Li Shi rolled her eyes coquettishly: "I don't like Western boys!"
"Aren't they romantic and affectionate? Girls should like them very much."
Luo Jun teased and didn't want to talk about heavy topics like when they could leave with Li Shi. Even he didn't dare say now that they could leave this place alive. It was unnecessary to increase her panic.
"Chinese boys can be romantic too! Unless there's a Xiao Li with such good looks and talent!"
As Li Shi spoke, her eyes glanced up and to the right, and a small, wicked smile appeared on her face, a manifestation of fantasy.
Luo Jun snorted and said, "I heard Western men are supposedly better endowed in certain areas. You might consider getting a Western boyfriend in the future."
"Uncle, you're so indecent!" Li Shi rolled her eyes at Luo Jun again.
Lorna didn't understand Chinese. Seeing Luo Jun and Li Shi chatting and laughing, she asked curiously, "What are you two talking about?"
Before Luo Jun could speak, Li Shi jumped in and said, "Lorna, he's so indecent. I won't chat with him anymore!"
As she spoke, she moved closer to Lorna's side.
Lorna pursed her lips and smiled. Her beautiful eyes glanced up and left, and her pretty face flushed slightly red.
Clearly she was reminiscing about the beautiful time on the beach.
Through microexpressions, Luo Jun could easily read their thoughts.
When he was at the mercenary company, he had undergone five months of practical psychology training, because the Americans needed a group of foreign agents to conduct business for them at the time. Unfortunately, Luo Jun was selected.
This was unavoidable, because before becoming an international mercenary, Luo Jun was a stateless person. His parents were from Hong Kong and had smuggled into America in the late 1980s.
Due to various reasons, he lost his own nationality. Although born in a San Francisco hospital after his parents arrived, he still could not naturalize because of his parents' status.
Later his parents were shot dead by gangsters, and he wandered the streets of San Francisco.
At that time he was only 13 years old. While wandering, he was captured by members of the CIA's secret agent group to be trained.
At that time, China and the US were cooperating on counter-terrorism and preventing the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction. The Americans trained Luo Jun as their agent, hoping he would infiltrate China.
When Luo Jun was 18 years old, he "graduated" from the secret agent group.
But the original plan could not keep up with international changes. Luo Jun had just graduated and was unemployed.
Of course, influenced by his father's traditional Chinese values, he deeply loved his homeland. Even if the original plan had not changed, he would not have betrayed his homeland. At that time, he had already devised a whole plan to escape.
The Americans could not just let their painstakingly trained foreign agent get away. So they "sold" Luo Jun to an international mercenary company.
There, Luo Jun couldn't remember how many international assassination missions he had carried out, until they sent him to the Middle East battlefield.
His contract expired three years ago and Luo Jun became a free man.
But Smith, the head of the CIA, had captured Xiao Ya, hoping Luo Jun could assassinate Lorna for the CIA to complete one last mission.
Luo Jun knew clearly that these robbers didn't keep their word. After killing Lorna, he wouldn't live long himself, and would be slapped with another political charge to frame his homeland.
This was also why Luo Jun had not taken action against Lorna.
Otherwise, he could have killed Lorna at least ten times before boarding the plane. But he just didn't do it.
Thinking of these things, Luo Jun's mood became heavy.
Looking at Li Shi and chatting with her in Chinese, he felt an inexplicable warmth in his heart, perhaps the innate blood connection between those of the same ethnicity.
Although on the surface Luo Jun was much nicer to Lorna than Li Shi, in fact, Luo Jun knew he would always protect the girl.
He was nice to Lorna solely because she had Xiao Ya.
If Lorna died, it would be extremely difficult for Luo Jun to find Xiao Ya.
That night, the three had dried their clothes and the two women were enjoying the geothermal warmth in the shelter, soon falling asleep.
Luo Jun was not yet asleep. He wanted to make a fire steel.
Because they couldn't stay by the sea for too long. There was no fresh water source here, and the coconuts would only last them two or three days. So they had to move in the next few days.
Making a fire steel would make it convenient to take away the fire source.
Luo Jun went to the edge of the woods to find some rotten wood, which crumbled into powder when rubbed by hand. Then he extinguished a piece of not fully burnt charcoal with sand, and smashed the charcoal into powder to mix with the rotten wood powder.
In addition, he needed to find some resin.
Resin was good for combustion.
He mixed a lot of resin into the powders until the mixture was like watered flour, rolled into a "black stick" about two fingers thick.
Now he just needed to let it dry until the moisture inside was completely gone. Then it could be put into a tube with an air hole.
Bamboo would be best to replace the tube.
But now Luo Jun had no way to find bamboo, and decided to look again at daylight.
After finishing this work, Luo Jun also went back to the shelter.
The shelter was small, just enough for three people lying down. The two women had occupied the sides, leaving only the middle position.
He didn't know if they had discussed it, but Luo Jun didn't mind. He lay down directly between them, smelling the women's fragrance, listening to the sounds of the grass and the crackling fire. Exhaustion overwhelmed him.
He also gradually fell asleep.
The next morning, Luo Jun was awakened by the dawn light. The two women had originally slept with their backs to him, now both faced him, and even rested their hands on his body.
Luo Jun gently removed the women's hands and legs, got up and went to the beach to relieve himself.
Then he cast the fishing hook into the sea again, hoping to eat delicious grilled fish again for lunch instead of coconut meat.
The two women soon woke up hungry and ran to the beach to relieve themselves.
But they had just finished peeing when they found Luo Jun sitting on the high rock beside them, casting his fishing line. Seeing their awkward looks, Luo Jun laughed.
"Next time find a better place, don't affect my fishing."
"..."
Li Shi felt wronged, speechless. It was clearly him doing things silently, not greeting them when he saw people coming.
"What are we eating for breakfast?"
Lorna now touched her growling stomach and asked Luo Jun.
"No hurry, I'll go see if the traps caught anything first. You two go gather some firewood."
Luo Jun said, already having set up the fishing rod, then jumped off the rock.
Luo Jun ran to the traps he had made last night. Two of them had not been triggered. When he came to the last one, he found that the active trap had actually been triggered, just that he didn't see the prey nailed dead on the spikes.
"Blood!"
Luo Jun saw blood on the spikes and ground.
"Damn it, the meat that was almost in my mouth flew away?" Luo Jun was a little excited and ran back to get the axe to hunt down the prey.
"Uncle, where are you going?"
Li Shi felt very insecure seeing Luo Jun about to leave and hurriedly asked.
"I'm going after the prey. If it goes smoothly, we might be able to eat meat for lunch!"
Luo Jun smiled and pinched Li Shi's little cheek before she pulled him back.
"I want to go too!"
