Chapter 240 The Hurricane Is Coming

Chapter 240 The Hurricane Is Coming
It has been three days since the manta ray rescued the tourists who died at sea. During these three days, Lorraine hardly closed his eyes and stayed on the deck, observing the sea carefully.

Although Catherine and Ron were not found, nearly one-third of the tourists rescued by the Manta Ray were discovered by Lorraine.

This is also the reason why Lorraine and his party were able to stay on the rescue ship of the Manta Ray—Lorraine also always thought that he could stay on the Manta Ray until he found Catherine.

After all, the Manta is the best rescue ship in all of Hawaii, and has been in the waters where Katherine and Ron went missing.

However, after watching the news broadcast on the satellite TV on board, the old captain took the nanmu pipe from the corner of his mouth, walked out of the cabin, lightly licked the pipe on the side of the ship, and then slowly opened his mouth.

"We must return."

"Return?"

Lorraine froze for a moment, and then immediately understood - he also watched the news just now: Hurricane Irena, which was originally expected to pass through the distant waters of Hawaii, seemed to have taken a fancy to the beautiful Hawaii and wanted to rest on this group of islands .

But Lorraine still has to work hard.

"Captain, can you search again?"

"Please, Captain!"

He took a deep puff of the pipe, letting the thick white smoke cover his beard and face, and the voice of the old captain came from the smoke.

"Lorraine, I know you care about your missing sister."

"However, I cannot risk the lives of the entire crew on you."

"They are all good people and have families waiting for them to return home safely."

"All I can say is sorry, Lorraine."

The old captain's answer made Lorraine couldn't help covering his face—after searching and rescue for three days, Lorraine also knew that hope was getting slimmer, but he still didn't want to give up.

Behind him, the tears of Christina and Molly also flowed out immediately.

"Hold the anchor! Turn the rudder 130 degrees to the left!"

"Kala la la la~"

There was the sound of iron chains rubbing against the side of the ship and the chief mate shouting. Looking at the sky with dark clouds drifting for several minutes, the old captain smoked several puffs of his pipe in silence before turning his head to face the three people who were silently weeping and sad.

"Lorraine."

"Although the rescue ship is about to return."

"However, in this weather, the plane can still fly for another one to two days."

"You can hire a plane and look for it."

"Three days have passed. If she hadn't been swallowed by the sea, maybe your sister would have been on a small island near Hawaii."

"Of course, this is my experience. As for what you should do, I have no right to interfere."

After finishing speaking, the old captain ignored the three of Lorraine, but turned and walked into the cabin—the hurricane was approaching, and he needed to lead the crew back to the port safely.

As he said, the crew are good people and he must prioritize their safety.

As for the three of Lorraine, although they failed to get the old captain to agree to patrol again, the experience of the old captain gave the three of them a glimmer of hope.

They have already started planning, and when they return to Oahu, they will rent a plane immediately. Before Hurricane Irena approaches, and they can still fly, they will search the islands around Oahu and try to find Catherine and Ron's trail.

…………

The sun completely jumped out of the sea level and sprinkled the sunlight on the clouds all over the sky. Immediately, all the clouds seemed to turn into light mist, making the whole sky like a paradise.Afterwards, such rays of light fell on the sea level, making the entire sea surface seem to be burning and transpiring.

"Orange, wake up!"

"What a beautiful sunrise!"

"Look, look over there!"

When morning came, the excited Catherine dragged Ron's hind legs out of the shelter to watch the beautiful sunrise.

Such beauty is simply not seen in Los Angeles-although the Diesel family is in the relatively low-lying and leisurely Orange County area, it is still some way from the coast.

Moreover, the waters of Los Angeles and Hawaii are not comparable, although they are both in the same Pacific Ocean.

"Meow~"

don't, don't look~
I still need to sleep~
Meowing, Ron let Catherine drag him, and the claws with slightly protruding claws drew two long drag marks on the sand——Ron's body had a fierce fight with the small crocodile yesterday. It is still a little tingly and numb, which is the result of using the crouching tiger pile to transport the blood.

However, when Ron was dragged across the beach, there were more footprints on the beach than the night before, and Ron even saw several footprints that were bigger than his own palm.

It's a bit like a dog's footprint, and a bit like a cat's plum blossom - obviously, there is still a beast living on this small island, but it has not been encountered by Ron and Catherine until now.

This further strengthened Ron's heart to speed up the construction of the new shelter.

"Show me quickly!"

Catherine, who was looking at the beautiful scenery, naturally didn't know what was going on in Ron's mind. She sat on the beach, hugged Ron, and turned his head towards the rising sun.

Immediately, a bright light projected into Ron's eyes, as well as the clouds that turned into mist on the horizon and the dolphins jumping out of the water under the clouds and playing with each other.

"Meow~"

really beautiful~
Hidden in the distance of the light and mist-like clouds, there are clouds as huge as mountains, with vague shapes, and tassels hanging down like tablecloths below.

"Meow~"

Alright, Catherine, it's time for us to get to work~
After watching the beautiful sunrise, Ron and Catherine once again devoted themselves to the construction of the new shelter with great enthusiasm—weaving thick bamboo leaves and strips into a thick, rainproof and windproof enclosure, hanging one by one On the erected support, it took only half a day for a hut to be built.

In order to be able to cook food in the shelter, the ingenious Catherine also moved the heated kang into the hut, and designed the flue and air outlet so that the smoke from the heated kang can be emitted at any time.

Even in order to be able to see the outside situation in the hut, Catherine made windows of the ancient version of the Dragon Kingdom on the three sides of the bamboo-leaf woven wall—this was all because Catherine had never seen the ancient buildings of the Dragon Kingdom. Ron couldn't help being amazed at what he came up with.

But Ron was not bad, and while Catherine was working hard to build the shelter, Ron ran to the jungle again.

This time, he finally met a fairly satisfactory prey - a fat bamboo rat.

It was a big rat weighing about ten catties, with a pair of fat front teeth, and was related to beavers.

As usual, the skins were peeled and grilled, and the internal organs were thrown away to feed the seagulls. Ron and Catherine's food reserves were once again raised to the level of three days.

In addition, one person and one cat picked more than a dozen coconuts and put them in the new bamboo and wood shelter, and life began to become better.
