Chapter 2 Coral Island
We escaped from the robbers for a while, but I don't know if they'll come here to arrest us when the storm subsides. So I have to be ready to meet the enemy!
I had just recovered from the Marine Corps the year before last, and my five-year military career gave me the confidence to be able to cope with the crisis at hand.
After walking along the coastline for a while, I basically figured out the basics of the place.
The island is a crescent-shaped coral island, about two kilometers long from east to west, and only two or three hundred meters from north to south, and is covered with coconut palms, palms, plantains, and some common tropical trees. Not far from this island, there are three or four other small islands that sit on the same reef and are surrounded by a lagoon in between.
The robbers just wanted to sail into the lagoon to escape the storm before they crashed into the reef.
To my regret, from the outside, these small islands appear to be uninhabited desert islands. And because we are located far from the international shipping lanes, my hopes of seeking outside assistance quickly have been dashed.
"Looks like I'm going to have to wait for help!" I gritted my teeth and made up my mind.
The place where we hit the reef is a few kilometers away, and the wind and waves are so strong that the robbers can't find out where we are for the time being, because I don't know how long I will hide on this island, so I focus on survival for the time being.
Although the islands are located in remote waters, there is also a lot of marine debris, and on the way back I picked up a few plastic bottles and a large piece of discarded fishing nets.
At this moment, I suddenly noticed a few green things at the edge of the woods!
"Coconuts! That's a good thing! After a long swim, and now we need to rehydrate and nourish, these coconuts are just in time!
I hurriedly wrapped the coconuts in an old fishing net and carried them on my shoulder.
"Xiao Cheng, have you found anyone?" Su Jin saw me coming back with a big net on his back, and hurriedly stood up and said.
She had lost her shoes when she fell into the water, and she was bare with two small white feet with blackened dead leaves stuck to them.
"Yes, Cheng Haidong, is there a patrol bureau on this island? Hurry up and call the police!" Li Shanshan also looked at me eagerly beside me. It seems that if I go out this time, I will be able to solve all the problems.
"Mr. Su, Li Shanshan, don't worry. It's a desert island with no people. But they can't find us for the time being, and when the bandits are gone, we'll find a way to ask for help from the outside world!" I said in as calm a tone as I could.
"Ah" Su Jin's face turned pale all of a sudden, his eyes looked at the tumbling sea in despair, his body shook, and he fainted suddenly.
"Mr. Su, what's wrong with you! Wake up!" Li Shanshan was so frightened that she didn't know what to do, and tears of anxiety flowed out.
"She was frightened and overworked, and it would be nice to rest for a while. I hugged Su Jin and lay down under the tree, put the life jacket under her head, and looked at her dignified face solemnly.
Su Jin is about in her early thirties, and she has always been single because she is devoted to her career. She is beautiful and has high vision, so ordinary men don't get into her eyes at all, so she has earned the nickname "Ice Beauty" in the industry.
I was recruited by this company as a security guard because I didn't find a proper job after I recovered, because I was tall, had a good image, and was a soldier. Although he has no contact with Su Jin, he also knows a thing or two about her.
Seeing her long eyelashes hanging and her eyes closed, I was also very anxious.
But there are only three of us on this island, and Li Shanshan is a hairy girl in her early twenties, if I act flustered, I'm afraid the scene will be even more desperate.
Seeing that Su Jin was just fainting from fear and fright, I hurriedly asked Li Shanshan to pinch her and rub her body, while I took out a big coconut from my net pocket and smashed it on a sharp broken stubble next to me.
One time, two times..... The thick and tough coconut skin was finally punctured by me, and the clear coconut water flowed out.
"Quick, give her something to drink!" I asked Li Shanshan to pick up Su Jin's head and pour coconut water into her mouth.
Su Jin drank two sips of coconut water and finally woke up. When she saw me in front of her, her pretty eyes were full of tears. He pursed his lips and didn't know what to say.
"Mr. Su, don't worry, I won't let anyone hurt you. I promise!" I said to her solemnly.
"Hmm. Su Jin nodded vigorously, and two lines of hot tears rolled down at once.
