Desert Island Infrastructure: Claiming the System Brings Many Blessings
Chapter 36 Food and Excitement
Keiko Kitagawa and Mina were seated and rested in the courtyard of the wooden house.
Lin Shishi brought over two coconut shells of fresh water and cut a few pieces of mango.
After drinking water and eating a mango, Kitagawa Keiko felt much better. She briefly recounted her and Mina's experiences over the past few days.
"When the shipwreck happened, we were both resting on the deck. A wave suddenly swept us overboard, and when I woke up, I was already on the rocks. Mina was next to me, also unconscious. Later, we climbed into that cave and stayed there for three or four days."
Yang Mimi gasped in astonishment after hearing this: "Three or four days without food? My God, how have you managed to survive this long?"
Keiko Kitagawa gave a wry smile: "I just had to tough it out. Mina's health is worse than mine; she started to feel dizzy towards the end, and there was nothing I could do."
Mina stood to the side with her head down, looking somewhat embarrassed.
Qin Chuan and Yang Mimi were already busy around the campfire.
Qin Chuan was in charge of butchering the elk, while Yang Mimi marinated the meat for about ten minutes with coarse salt and wild ginger that she had collected that day. Then she skewered the meat on sharpened wooden sticks and roasted it slowly over the campfire.
The oil sizzled as it dripped onto the charcoal fire, filling the air with its aroma.
When Kitagawa Keiko smelled the aroma of meat, her stomach rumbled.
She quickly pressed her hand to her stomach, her face turning red.
After the meat was grilled, Qin Chuan was the first to take a bite.
Deer meat is much more tender than wild boar meat, with a subtle, gamey aroma. Seasoned with coarse salt and wild ginger, it tastes somewhat like grilled lamb skewers from Earth.
Ding!
[Consuming Tier 3 Ingredient: Otherworldly Deer Meat. First consumption grants +5 Strength and +3 Speed. Bonus: +5 Health!]
Strength increased to 45.
Qin Chuan glanced at the panel again.
Character Attributes: Strength 45; Speed 38; Defense 35; Health 35.
They're getting stronger and stronger.
Qin Chuan didn't say much, and distributed the grilled meat to everyone.
Keiko Kitagawa and Mina had been starving for days, and they ate like starving ghosts. Keiko Kitagawa was a little more restrained, chewing slowly, but Mina just stuffed large mouthfuls into her mouth, her cheeks bulging out.
"Eat slowly, don't choke." Lin Shishi handed her a coconut shell drink.
Mina took a big gulp of water to wash the meat out of her mouth, and then took another big bite.
"This is so delicious... What kind of meat is this? I've never eaten such delicious meat before..."
Yang Mimi proudly raised her chin: "The venison was from Brother Chuan's hunt today. My barbecue skills also played a big part."
After eating a few skewers of meat, Kitagawa Keiko put down the wooden stick and bowed solemnly to Qin Chuan.
"Qin Chuan, thank you for saving our lives. If you hadn't appeared, Mina and I might have died in that cave."
Qin Chuan waved his hand: "We're all survivors, it's only right to lend a hand."
Fan Yubing ate meat on the side, her gaze sweeping back and forth between Kitagawa Keiko and Mina.
These two newcomers are quite different; one is excessively gentle and polite, and the other has an excessively good figure.
Fan Yubing subconsciously straightened her back, making it even straighter.
Liu Yifei quietly ate her barbecue, occasionally glancing at the two newcomers with a detached expression.
Yang Mimi can chat with anyone, and she quickly struck up a conversation with Kitagawa Keiko.
After dinner, it gradually got dark.
The sun sets, and the waning sun transforms into a blue moon. Once again, the blue moonlight bathes the entire island.
Qin Chuan sat by the campfire, pondering his next steps.
There are now seven people in the camp.
Four bedrooms, seven people—it's never enough to divide them up properly.
We'll make do with this cramped space tonight and expand it tomorrow.
After eating and drinking their fill, Kitagawa Keiko and Mina felt much better. Mina, in particular, became very talkative after finishing the barbecue.
"How long have you been on this island?"
"It's been four or five days," Fan Yubing said.
"They built such a large campsite in just four or five days? Wooden huts, a campfire, a water tank, and even a yard and a fence?"
"It was all Chuan Ge's doing," Lin Shishi said.
Mina glanced at Qin Chuan, her admiration for him much more evident than before.
Keiko Kitagawa quietly helped clear the dishes, washed the coconut shells, and wrapped the remaining meat in banana leaves and hung it on the tree.
She did these things quietly, without being told what to do; she did them on her own.
Qin Chuan noticed that this Kitagawa Keiko was indeed different from the others.
It was 8 p.m.
Qin Chuan called out to several people.
"Time to check in."
Yang Mimi has gotten used to it. Although her face is still red, at least she won't squat on the ground anymore, cover her face, and scream.
The four veteran members completed their check-in one by one. Lin Shishi was gentle, Fan Yubing was domineering, Liu Yifei was perfunctory, and Yang Mimi was flustered.
Four "ding" sounds rang in my mind, and my pupil technique proficiency reached 13/50.
Keiko Kitagawa and Mina stood by and witnessed the whole thing.
Kitagawa Keiko's expression remained calm, after all, she was a well-traveled and knowledgeable person on the cruise ship.
But Mina's mouth was open in an "O" shape, and her jaw didn't close from the first person to the fourth.
"What... what kind of operation is this?"
Fan Yubing crossed her arms and said coldly, "The 'Many Children, Many Blessings' System: Get stronger with every kiss. Let Brother Chuan explain the details to you."
After saying that, Fan Yubing turned around and went into the wooden house.
Qin Chuan looked at Kitagawa Keiko and Mina, who were standing there dumbfounded, and thought to himself that he would have to explain again.
He had used this same excuse many times, and he was getting more and more fluent with each repetition.
"Here's how it is..." Lin Shishi explained the "Many Children, Many Blessings System" setting again. A kiss earns a small reward, while deeper interactions earn even greater rewards.
The existence of this system allows him to continuously grow stronger and protect everyone.
After listening, Keiko Kitagawa remained silent for a while, then nodded seriously.
"I understand. Qin Chuan, you saved Mina and my lives, this is nothing."
Qin Chuan was taken aback. So agreeable?
Even Fan Yubing had to berate him for a long time before he reluctantly accepted, but this Japanese girl agreed without saying a word.
Mina, on the other hand, wasn't so easy to talk to.
"No way, I don't want to!" Mina shook her head repeatedly. "I don't even know him, why should I kiss him?"
Keiko Kitagawa turned to look at Mina, her temper flaring: "Mina, someone saved our lives. Let alone a kiss, you could offer yourself to them!"
Qin Chuan almost choked on his saliva when he heard this.
Keiko Kitagawa added, "If you don't agree, then don't acknowledge me as your older sister!"
Upon hearing this, Mina lost her temper: "Alright then."
Qin Chuan watched from the side, and his opinion of Kitagawa Keiko rose even higher.
This woman is not only highly cooperative herself, but she can also help persuade others.
However, Qin Chuan suddenly remembered that he had already "checked in" when he fed Mina coconut water, and the cooldown time had not yet expired.
Thinking of this, Qin Chuan said, "Alright, then I won't force her. After all, she's not used to it yet. Let's talk about it again at 8 a.m. tomorrow."
Kitagawa Keiko glanced at Qin Chuan and nodded slightly.
Mina breathed a sigh of relief, but her expression was still somewhat complicated.
She secretly glanced at Qin Chuan's profile. This man was actually not ugly, had a good physique, and could carry a 600-pound deer by himself.
Such a man is only so-so, barely passable, and she would only give him a second glance on this deserted island.
If she were on Earth, she wouldn't even glance at them, because there would be a whole street of handsome men chasing after her.
