bit stealing game

Chapter 61 Arno's Crisis

The bonfire was set up, and the burning flame seemed to take over from the setting sun.

The meat was sizzling on the rack, and the aroma of the food was already present in the air.

A man with reddish hair came from a place with a strong fragrance.He pointed to the bonfire in the center of the camp and said, "What do you guys want to eat, let's go roast it now." The man's hair was like fire, but his expression was cold.

Rather than asking a few of us, he was obviously waiting for Alex's reply.The gang that Morgan brought in seemed to take special care of Alex, which I'm used to.

Both Li Yuan and I said that there is no need to trouble, we can support ourselves.Furthermore, 279 will definitely take care of the team members.

Alex also declined his offer.

The red-haired man was just annoyed by Yano taking a GoPro to shoot a video, so he didn't wait for his opinion.

But Arno is not one to be left out in the cold.He didn't care that the man didn't answer him, and thought for a while: "Then please give me a calf's loin. Thank you, Charles."

When the person named Charles heard this, he laughed angrily. "It's so particular. How familiar do you need to be?"

Yano looked at the meat that was being roasted on the fire in the distance, and said indifferently, "I want it to be medium rare."

Charles looked at him for a while, then left without a word.

Alex sneered. "You will get sick if you eat like this."

Arno winked at her with his damn blue eyes, pretending otherwise that his tongue, which had tasted all the food, would be hurt by under-tender meat.

"Besides. How can there be diseases caused by delicious food?"

Alex was amused by him.

After Yanuo's performance, the heaviness just now was dispelled with the last ray of sunshine.

Someone laughed behind our backs.

We look over.

Jason grinned, revealing two small canine teeth.The child didn't see outside, and sat down on the sandy ground by himself.

Yano waved his hand: "Boy, don't laugh. I can give you some later, so that you can taste the taste of Italians."

Jason declined his offer.

"Those animals were killed several days ago, and I watched them load them into the truck. The storage conditions along the way were not good, and they were easy to get sick if they were eaten too raw."

When the child spoke, his eyes looked directly at the other person, appearing serious and sincere.

Arno was taken aback.

Alex was happy to see him deflated, and his green eyes narrowed in satisfaction.

"Did I see the aurora?" Jason murmured.

If the other two people present said this, it might be a bit greasy.But Jason was young, and his watery green eyes seemed very sincere. When he looked at Alex, he was respectful and amazed.

Arno was stunned.He opened his mouth halfway, not knowing how to react for a moment.

I laughed.

Li Yuan patted him on the shoulder: "Chris, the children nowadays are terrible. Don't take it too seriously."

If it weren't for the smile in his eyes, Yano might really be comforted.But now, Arno couldn't even stand up his feathers.

Alex was taken aback when he heard Jason's words, and then showed an amused smile.

Those green eyes really seemed to melt into the aurora as Jason said.

Seeing that we were all laughing, Jason looked at me again and said, "You make me really want to go to the East."

I am happy. "Little guy, welcome anytime."

Then I said to Alex and Yanuo: "Not only him, you are all worth visiting China."

Yano's eyes lit up.I didn't even care about getting back from Jason, so I agreed right away. "I haven't been to China yet. It would be great if I could have a chance to visit Yu and Yuechen's hometown."

I snorted. "China is very big. Our hometown is only a small part, and each place has its own unique culture."

Yano whispered, "I know."

Alex looked at me, then turned his gaze to Li Yuan.

"If you have time, welcome at any time." Li Yuan said.

Alex looked at him expectantly.

When Charles brought over the medium-rare, maybe not medium-rare veal loin that Jarno asked for, the three of them interrupted their imagination about their trip to China.

Looking at the plump flesh and blood, Yano couldn't help but frowned in disgust.

Under the gaze of Alex with a half-smile, he awkwardly went to get a charcoal basin, and put the fresh beef in front of him for reprocessing.

After a while Arno was happy again.He stopped staring at the half-baked piece of meat, and looked up at us: "Hey, do you want to see my handicraft!"

He's a guy who can really entertain himself, and he's good at dragging others down.I thought I'd better wait for 279 to pack it up and go directly to eat the ready-made ones.Seeing Arno's triumphant look now, I changed my mind.

"Then I'll have grilled chicken wings. Drizzled with honey."

Arno blinked his blue eyes briskly, touched his left shoulder lightly with his right hand, and said, "Happy to help."

Li Yuan said politely: "Pick up what you are good at."

Alex thought for a while: "I want to eat roasted chicken with herbs and oranges. The chicken's giblets need to be pulled out and filled with oranges."

Yano's smile faltered, but he still accepted the order.

Jason wasn't involved.

Yano continued to turn over the beef on the charcoal basin, and said righteously: "Tell me what you want to eat, as long as it is among the existing dishes, there is nothing I can't cook." He just boasted, Suddenly thought of something, looked at Li Yuan and me, and added: "The venue is limited, I can't cook Chinese food."

Jason was a little surprised.After reconfirming that he can also order food, he said embarrassedly: "I have been away from my hometown for a long time. Our Mexican tacos are delicious, but I haven't had them for a long time. I just saw that they prepared the rolls here in Egypt. Pie, similar to ours. Can you make me a beef taco?"

Now Arno couldn't laugh at all.Although taco is common, it cannot be operated under the current situation.But Yano refused to say that he couldn't do it. He said in a tone of a kidnapper: "Young man, don't you want to try my Italian way? T-bone steak? I promise you can swallow your own tongue .”

Jason lowered his eyes and hesitated for a while, then understandingly asked for the same food as Alex.

But everyone can see that he still really wants to eat taco.

Arno propped himself on the ground with one hand, leaned over and ruffled Jason's hair with the other hand.He squeezed out a confident smile and said, "Just wait, I'll make you a taco right away. I'll also add red peppers to it for you."

Alex looked sideways: "I didn't see it, Chris, you're pretty good."

Yano smiled and said nothing.That embarrassing look was clearly saying, "I'm not such a great person."So he got another supercilious look from Alex.

I couldn't help but want to help Yano when he slapped his swollen face to look like a fat man. "Speaking of which, in fact, roast duck should be able to handle."

Yano looked at me with a bit of grievance, as if accusing me of throwing stones into trouble.

I thought about it and thought it was not appropriate. "It's really hard for you. How about I just eat the roast leg of lamb. It must be fully cooked but the meat must be tender. It's best to separate the flesh from the flesh." I added: "Honey grilled wings are also required. .”

Yano left with a grunt.

Li Yuan smiled, got up and followed him to help him.

Alex and I looked at each other and smiled.

Jason stuck his tongue out at us, got up and followed.He also said confidently: "I'm very good at cooking, I'll give you a taste later."

Alex quietly fiddled with Arno's bloody barbecue.She didn't mean to communicate with me at all, but I wanted to talk to her on purpose.

It wasn't just the feeling of being kept in the dark knowing that Alex's parents were probably out in the desert.I also need to know what happened in Antarctica that time, what notification Alex and the others got at that time, and how much they knew about that mission.And why Alex was obviously transformed, but she would not endure Li Yuan's ordeal when the moon was full.If she knew the answer herself.

"That orange grilled chicken sounds delicious, but it doesn't feel easy to make."

Alex smiled and said, "Since Chris likes to brag, let him try."

"You two have such a good relationship." I said with a little envy on purpose.

"You guys have a good relationship too, Chris likes you very much." I just sneered before I heard her add in a low voice. "So is Lee."

I looked at her.

Alex kept staring at the piece of meat, turning it over with an unnecessary frequency.

That's it.I can't help but bend the corners of my mouth. "Yeah, I didn't see it." I said in a pretentious tone, even I felt cheap.

Alex frowned, but still said seriously: "Lee is different to you."

I said to myself, that's Xiao Jiujiu who you don't know about him.If it wasn't for the purpose of appearing a little weak in front of Morgan and others, he wouldn't act like he has something to do with me.

But in order not to damage the image of Li Yuan as a Xi Shi, and to tease Alex, I said: "Lee treats me differently."

Alex's hands froze.She shrugged her shoulders nonchalantly, and then went to poke Arno's dead meat.I found it interesting, and added slowly: "After all, we are also interested."

This basically shows that we have nothing beyond the combination of interests.

Alex looked at me in surprise.

I smiled and blinked, and she showed an embarrassed smile.

"The two ladies had a nice chat."

Yano came back from a stroll without copying his hands.He first expressed his praise to Alex for taking care of his barbecue, then he glanced at the charcoal basin that was hardworking but ineffective, and he simply asked others to build a small bonfire on the spot.Then he called out to a few other foreigners who I looked familiar but couldn't name to help him move the tableware.

Alex and I stood on the sidelines and watched Yanuo act as a demon.Li Yuan and Jason patiently watched Yano point out Jiangshan, holding the processed leg of lamb and roast chicken respectively.When everything is ready, it will be put on the fire.

The sheep's limbs were wrapped in tin foil, and they were vigorously rolled on the fire in unison.The leg of lamb will not be cooked for a while, but the aroma of orange and chicken has already permeated.

Yano and Li Yuan tore apart the fat chicken that was grilled to the point of oil, and shared it among the crowd.The drumsticks ended up on my and Alex's plates, and Jason got two wings.

Did the kid not ask Arno to make him a taco?

Alex took a bite of the chicken.Then I took another sip.

Looking at her posture, I thought the roast chicken should taste good, so I took a big bite expectantly.It turned out not to be tasty.

The orange and vanilla form a strange hedging taste, and it should have gone through some strange processes, and the meat is also very woody.

"What do you think?" Jason asked expectantly.

"You did this?" Alex asked in surprise.

Jason nodded shyly.

I buried my head and continued to chew.

If Jarno did this, I'd be mocking him when I swallowed the morsel in my mouth.But I really don't want to hit Jason, even if I'm not going to take a second bite at all.

Yano Jingui's tongue was obviously bruised to the point where he was completely bruised.He's not like Li Yuan, who can eat unpalatable chicken that hurts people without any disturbance.He pondered for a while before he could barely speak to comfort Jason.

"It's the first time I've had chicken with a fresh orange taste. It would be even better with our Sicilian blood oranges."

Alex remained silent.She took a few more mouthfuls of chicken, with a soft curve on the corner of her mouth.

"Do you like it?" Jason asked nervously and expectantly.

Alex flashed him a smile. "I didn't expect to be able to taste this. But yes, I love it."

Jason also laughed, showing his little canine teeth. "As long as you like it. The only thing my adoptive father knows how to make is this dish. I made it exactly his way, but I always thought it wasn't very tasty. It turned out that I had been misunderstanding all along." He was talking He kept watching Alex all the time, and he was a very polite child.His family must have educated him well.

Yano was hit by Jason's sideways hit.He graciously picked a roasted leg of lamb from the fire, burned his hand when removing the tin foil, and came to me to taste it.

I rolled my eyes, but tore off a piece and tasted it anyway.I didn't expect it to be really delicious.The soft and tender mutton combined with some indescribable spices gave my taste buds a big kill.With delicious food in my mouth, I couldn't control it for a while, and raised my eyebrows approvingly.

Arno triumphantly flicked his less curly hair: "How about it, Yu, I didn't lie to you, did I?"

I gave him the acknowledgment he deserved, and asked, "And can I still have honey-baked wings?"

After a while, Yano came back with chicken wings, followed by a person.

Alex saw the person coming and looked away in disgust. "Chris, go get the chicken wings, why don't you bring everything back."

Yano showed a helpless expression.

Behind him, Karl seemed not to hear the thorn in Alex's words, he greeted her graciously, and then nodded to Li Yuan and me.Carl raised his eyebrows when he saw Jason.

The child ignored him, staring helplessly at the food that Arno had placed properly in the fire and was now tumbling on the shelves.

No one paid attention to him, and the unexpected guest was not annoyed, and sat down on his own.

That's not all.Before I had time to praise him for his thick skin, I heard him call out "Bruce!"

A well-dressed man came over.It was the handsome blue-eyed man who appeared with Karl, who seemed to be some kind of astronomer.

Bruce sat down near Carl.Carl rummages through the grill until he settles on a steak.He extended his arm and handed the steak to Bruce and said, "It's a little overcooked, so you can make do with it."

Arnold defends his craft: "Those who drink blood don't know the true meaning of food. Bruce, I'm not talking about you."

Bruce thanked Carl, took the plate and put it on the sand beside him, then took off his gloves and picked up the cutlery.After he tasted it, he first apologized to Arno for Karl's offense, and then expressed his admiration for the superb cooking of the steak.

Arno gleefully accepted the compliment.

I'm a little surprised that Bruce didn't take off his leather gloves until he was eating.He looked like a concave man, his clothes were not too thick, but he still wore leather gloves.Now that I think about it, he also wore gloves at Arno’s ball that day. At that time, I thought it was to highlight the role of European colonists, but I didn’t expect it to be a fixed match.

"Bruce is a bit of a clean freak. He'll get nervous if he doesn't wear gloves." Carl noticed that some of us paid a little attention to Bruce's attention, and explained, "It's a good thing there is a bathroom this time, otherwise he will suffer to death."

The few times I've noticed Bruce, he's been paired with Carl and has a bit of a distance.Now this little obsession with cleanliness makes him a lot more lively.

"Did you fix that expensive bathroom?" I asked Carl.

"How is that possible? In fact, just like Miss Rhea said, I am a dog sent from above." Karl said nonchalantly. "Even this one has to wag your tail hard to get here. There's no way you can say that there is a bathroom if you want a bathroom."

When Karl said this, we all felt a little harsh.For the first time, he moved away from the facialized mad dog image a little bit, and looked more like a kicked mad dog.

Bruce frowned slightly.He ate very slowly, and the steak was cut carefully, so he didn't eat much in total.He stood up, greeted us, picked up the plate on a handkerchief and left.

"I'm here." Carl muttered.He took the veal loin that Arno ordered from the small fire and ate it slowly, then lifted his ass and left.

The four of us looked at each other.No matter how you look at it, I feel that those two people are here to eat meat.

Yano came back to his senses: "My meat!"

Alex poked a piece of flesh and stuffed it, stifling his howl.

"Are you going to start a small stove here?" I was tasting honey roasted wings when Jiang Can strolled over.I was just a little embarrassed when I heard him say meanly: "Tsk tsk tsk, this is the only one to eat. We can roast a whole lamb there."

As soon as I heard this, Shula stood up.Sure enough, I saw that the place where the bonfire was the most prosperous was roasting a whole lamb in full swing.Immediately, the chicken wings in his hand were not so fragrant.

Arno felt cheated and angrily confronted Charles.With the intention of watching a good show, the few of us also followed.

"I'm about to call you. The sheep just slaughtered in the village are almost roasted." Charles said to Alex when he saw us passing by.Regarding Yanuo's denunciation, he gloated: "I didn't lie to you, you were the one who wanted to eat the beef. Except for these few sheep, we brought everything else."

indeed.Except for the few sheep that are rolling over the fire, there are really a lot of good things here.All kinds of meat, Red Sea fish, unnamed seafood and other ingredients greet you like flowing water.People shuttled through it like participating in a bonfire party, talking and laughing with alcoholic drinks.It's like a camping posture.

Because the previous operations were basically separated, this is the first time I have seen a relatively complete UN team.There are about 30 people of all kinds.Besides Jacqueline, there are three other women.

Morgan and a middle-aged Asian were at the edge of the crowd, talking with drinks.The man leaned slightly, nodding slightly from time to time.Boothwell, Patrick and others had a good chat.

Those mercenary-like people seen in the Chicago house should have been brought by Carl.He himself was chatting with a brown-haired woman, and made her quite amused.

Arno is a character who doesn't want to be ignored.As long as there are people, he can't see that he is not the focus of the crowd.But this time Karl seemed to be trying his best to confront him, and it didn't count to show off in the crowd, so he gave him a smug look.

Hassan, Laila, Ali, and Sukla stood silently watching the foreigners revel.

Alex sneered and said, "It's a good thing that this is a **** country, otherwise they wouldn't have a live pig show in a while."

This is a satire on the Roman dinner of the United Nations team. Although Alex doesn't like to talk much, his venomous tongue is really like a knife.

Arno clapped his hands and said yes.He, an Italian, can't even look down on him, and he wants to cut seats with those capitalist hedonists.

Li Yuan also nodded in agreement.Just in time to meet Alex's eyes looking at him, they both looked at each other and smiled.

At this moment, I felt someone looking our way.It's Boothville.Li Yuan looked sideways and met his gaze.

That stare ended quickly.There was a smile on the corner of Li Yuan's mouth.
