Surviving in anime world, playing with a girl and getting watched by the live chat.

They call it beachcombing, but they can't actually go to the sea. They just look for seafood on rocky beaches that are some distance from the ocean and not submerged.

The tide rises on the beach in the morning and recedes in the afternoon.

After more than three days of observation, he found that the beach they were on seemed to be experiencing a semi-diurnal tide, but he couldn't be completely sure because there was also a mixed tide, which is a transitional type between a semi-diurnal tide and a diurnal tide.

Tides can be divided into three categories: diurnal tides, semi-diurnal tides, and mixed tides.

A diurnal tide pattern means that there is only one high tide and one low tide within a lunar day.

A semi-diurnal tide consists of two high tides and two low tides within a single lunar day. The tidal range between the first and second high tides is roughly the same as that between the second high tide and the third low tide, and the time for the rising and falling tides is also almost equal.

A mixed tide can sometimes resemble a semi-diurnal tide and sometimes a full-diurnal tide.

On some days within a month, there are two high tides and two low tides, but the difference between the two high tides and low tides is quite large, and the time for the high tide and low tide processes is also different; while on other days, there is one high tide and one low tide.

The ebb and flow of tides change every day. On Earth, a complete tidal cycle usually takes about 24 hours and 50 minutes.

High tide and low tide alternate every 6 hours or 12 hours, with the tides being delayed by 50 minutes each day. This is because tides are caused by the gravitational pull of the moon, and the moonrise time is also delayed by 50 minutes each day.

However, it should be noted that the tidal cycle is not exactly 24 hours and 50 minutes, nor is it necessarily delayed by 50 minutes every day, because it is also affected by other factors, such as the shape of the earth, the topography of the ocean floor, and atmospheric pressure.

This is another world, where the tidal changes look similar to those on Earth.

Although Dongyun knew that calculating the daily tides was troublesome, they made a living by the sea and couldn't afford not to pay attention to the ebb and flow of the tides. In short, no matter what kind of tide it was, the ebb and flow of the tides could be calculated based on a rough benchmark of 6 or 12 hours.

Chapter 42: Our Favorites Are Different

The walking fish has disappeared.

To prevent the walking fish from hiding in the sea and launching a sneak attack on them from the shore, the fishermen searching for seafood on the rocky beach kept a certain distance from the sea.

Because of the rising tide, the area of ​​the rocky beach has shrunk, so they can find less seafood.

It rained yesterday, so they didn't come to the beach. First, they were worried about catching a cold from getting wet and going to the beach; second, they had food reserves, so there was no need to go to the beach; and third, the beach is quite dangerous in heavy rain, with big waves, and it would be even more dangerous if the tide were coming in.

Today, they have run out of food.

Thankfully the rain stopped today; otherwise, the combination of heavy rain, strong winds, high waves, and the presence of walking fish lurking on the beach would have made it feel like a scene from a horror movie.

With a "thud," the two stones fell to the ground simultaneously.

"Ow~!"

Three or four meters away on the rocks, seagulls cried out in fright and flew away.

"Failed again."

Seeing the target fly away, Shinonome looked disappointed.

He came to two stones bound with thick ropes and picked up the weapon called the Meteor Rope.

To be precise, this is a two-ball meteor rope, usable for both ranged and melee combat, allowing for hunting without harming animals. Simply throw the meteor rope, causing it to spin rapidly in the air. Upon hitting the prey, the inertia generated by the stone ball will cause the rope to rotate around the prey, eventually binding it.

The Sling Gabriel is still in production.

Gabriel said she could make slings, but she didn't really know how to weave them. She just had a general idea because she had learned to weave various patterns with rope.

The sling consists of two parts: the "main rope" and the "net". The main rope includes the "rope end", the "connecting part" and the "rope end". The "net" can be made of cloth or leather, or it can be woven from rope.

They had no cloth, so they could only weave nets out of rope, and that was exactly what troubled her.

It's not that I don't know how to weave, it's just that I have to learn as I go.

This was Gabriel's first time weaving a net and her first time making a sling. Both the rope for weaving the net and the rope for making the sling couldn't be too thin; they had to be thicker. Because no one helped her weave the thick rope, she made mistakes while doing it, which made her work very slowly by herself.

Why is no one helping?

Yesterday afternoon, besides developing the sequel to Splatoon, Shinonome spent the entire afternoon sharpening his stone knife, finally achieving a reasonably sharp edge. As for Nadeshiko, she started weaving palm leaves after learning how to weave a palm leaf roof. It wasn't that I couldn't help her weave a thick rope, but she hadn't asked Nadeshiko for help.

Fortunately, she was almost finished with the sling.

The net is almost finished. Once the net is finished, it will be practically the same as the sling.

"Can you stop shooting birds and come catch fish with us? There are two big fish here."

Gabriel, seeing that Dongyun had failed for what seemed like the umpteenth time, advised him to give up for now and come here to slack off.

"What big fish? I saw it, it's not even as big as my palm."

Shinonome glanced back at Gabriel and complained.

Nadeshiko had called him when she found the fish, but the fish wasn't big, and the tidal pool where it was was quite large. He tried to catch it, but when he went into the water, he found it was a bit deep, reaching up to his knees. After five or six minutes, he hadn't even touched the fish, let alone caught it.

Catching fish with bare hands is a skill, and he clearly didn't have that skill.

To avoid falling behind his income, he decisively gave up slacking off and continued practicing his meteor shower.

Next to Gabriel was Kagamihara Nadeshiko, who was watching the fish with longing eyes. Seeing this, Shinonome advised, "The pond is too big, the fish are small, and they swim fast. There are also many places for them to hide. Let's give up eating other things."

There is nothing difficult in the world, just give up.

Forget about the fish. There are plenty of snails, clams, and seaweed to eat. Why don't you practice slingshotting with him? If they encounter sheep or deer, they'll have a feast of meat.

Meteor hairpins are surprisingly effective against long-legged animals.

"Ugh...!"

Upon hearing this, Kagamihara Nadeshiko's face showed a dejected expression.

I want to eat fish.

I've had enough of sea snails and clams.

Even if there are no fish to eat, hermit crabs will do, but she couldn't find any hermit crabs today, and she didn't even know where the crabs were hiding.

Unfortunately, while the rocky beach is indeed rich in resources, the tide is rising now. Seafood washed ashore that couldn't return to the sea either hides or becomes prey for seagulls and other birds. Only a few clumsy seafood that managed to escape the first wave of birds, but didn't hide well enough, will be discovered.

"Don't be sad, Nadeshiko. Once I've mastered the Meteor Rope technique, I'll treat you to seagulls every day."

Shinonome painted a picture of a cake for Kagamihara Nadeshiko.

"Really!"

Kagamihara Nadeshiko, who had just been tinged with sadness, immediately perked up upon hearing these words.

"real."

"fake."

Shinonome and Gabriel spoke at the same time.

"real."

"It's fake, you can't trust this guy."

Shinonome reiterated his affirmation, while Gabriel countered once again.

Clearly, Gabriel still has some minor complaints and dissatisfaction about what happened outside the sea cave when she woke up.

Some people say they're not interested in her and make solemn promises, but in the end they're just lying. They say one thing and do another.

If Shinonome were a girl, she wouldn't have to worry about H.

Gabriel sighed inwardly, unaware that even among girls, it wasn't impossible for them to have sexual encounters.

"why?"

Kagamihara Nadeshiko was puzzled.

"because……"

Gabriel was about to speak when she suddenly realized that this might not be the right thing to say to Nadeshiko.

"Because of what?"

Kagamihara Nadeshiko's big eyes were filled with innocence.

"Because he said he wasn't interested in me, but actually he was very interested in me."

After thinking about it, Gabriel decided to tell Kagamihara Nadeshiko about it.

It's no use trying to hide it from Nadeshiko. Once a certain Hentai does something strange to her, it's only a matter of time before Nadeshiko finds out. There's no way to keep it a secret forever.

Moreover, saying it earlier would allow Nadeshiko to be mentally prepared and increase her vigilance against Shinonome. Although she felt that Nadeshiko was also being targeted by Shinonome, this hentai, out of a desire for revenge, she wanted to make things difficult for Shinonome and prevent him from easily taking Nadeshiko.

"You're very interested in me?"

Kagamihara Nadeshiko tilted her head.

"..."

Gabriel fell silent. Didn't she understand?

"Ah, wait? Could it be!"

After a few seconds, Kagamihara Nadeshiko's mind gradually understood what Gabriel meant. She looked at Shinonome and asked in surprise, "Shinonome, you like Gabriel?"

"Hard to say."

When asked this question, Shinonome was momentarily at a loss for words.

To say he doesn't like her would be a lie, but to say he does like her is a lie; he doesn't actually like Gabriel that much. It all started with her looks and ended with her body.

If you say you'll be lenient for confessing, it sounds like you've been playing with a katana too much; if you say you'll be punished severely for resisting, it sounds too hypocritical.

"Hard to say?"
