Start a mysterious island

In the dim room, the slim figure lying on the bed turned over.

The long eyelashes trembled a few times, and her eyes slowly opened. The sleepy Su Yue raised her hand, rubbed her eyes, and then sat up.

I just woke up, my mind was in a daze, and it took me a few seconds to fully wake up.

It's already so dark! How many hours have I slept? Su Yue turned her head to look at the window and found that the sky outside the window had become darker. She muttered, then reached out to take the phone from the bedside table and unlocked the screen. Checked the time.

The time now is 6:50, and almost three hours have passed since Su Yue lay down on the bed to take a nap.

Lifting the thin blanket covering her body, Su Yue, who was wearing a silk suspender nightgown, got out of bed, stepped on slippers and left the bedroom.

Eh?!!!

When she came to the living room, Su Yue wanted to pour herself a glass of water to quench her thirst, but she was stunned when she saw some things on her coffee table in the living room were a little messy.

What's going on? I remember that the fruit plate, kettle and cup were right next to each other. Why are they all separated now?

Su Yue, who was full of doubts, thought for a while but couldn't come up with an answer.

Then, she picked up the kettle, poured herself a glass of water, sat on the sofa and drank slowly while looking around her home.

After some observation, she found that many objects in her home seemed to have moved.

Did a thief break into the house while I was sleeping?

No, if there was a thief, something would have been lost, but I didn't find anything missing at home.

Su Yue put the water cup on the coffee table, stood up, and looked around the house carefully.

She also found situations similar to those in the living room in some rooms.

However, after a thorough inspection, there was nothing missing at home, so we could rule out the possibility of a thief breaking into the house while she was taking a nap in the afternoon.

This is weird, what is going on? Su Yue was confused by the strange situation at home, and at this time, her stomach growled several times, interrupting Su Yue's thoughts.

I'm a little hungry, let me prepare dinner first!

Although many objects in the house have been moved, this situation is very strange, but in Su Yue's view, as long as there are no thieves breaking into the house to steal things while she is sleeping, the problem is not a big one. Being hungry is event.

The swaying Su Yue hummed a sweet tune and walked towards the kitchen.

The sound of running water sounded, and Su Yue, who was humming a little tune, was washing rice. She planned to cook some pumpkin porridge and stir-fry two vegetables for dinner.

Oh! I almost forgot the corn that Lin Li sent me.

Su Yue, who was washing rice and preparing to cook pumpkin porridge, remembered that Lin Li had given her a bag of corn that was in very good condition and had kept it in the refrigerator untouched.

After washing the rice and cooking the pumpkin porridge, Su Yue opened the refrigerator, took out a small bag of corn, took out a few corns, washed them, and put them in the steamer.

After the pumpkin porridge and corn are cooked, I can start cooking. Su Yue said to herself with a smile, and then she left the kitchen and went to the balcony to water some of her potted plants.

The setting sun on the horizon is about to disappear, leaving only the last afterglow. The gorgeous colors that originally illuminated most of the sky will also usher in its final glory at this time.

Su Yue stood on the balcony, watching the sunset on the horizon.

The breeze blew her silky hair, and her slender white arms were raised to push the hair that was messed up by the breeze behind her ears.

Compared with Beijing, which is already a bit cold due to the severe temperature drop, the temperature in Rongcheng today is quite high.

The temperature in the evening is much cooler than the temperature in the afternoon, and the breeze blows on the body, making people feel very comfortable.

Su Yue, who was wearing a thin silk suspender nightgown, felt the comfortable breeze blowing on her body and felt very comfortable.

She picked up the kettle on the ground, filled it with water from the sink on the balcony, and began to replenish the source of life for the potted plants that had not been watered for a while.

I know, I know, I know...

On some leafy trees in the green belt of the community, cicadas who are about to reach the end of their lives are chirping one after another.

I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but these cicadas seem to know that summer is coming to an end and their lives are about to end, so the chirping of these little things is louder than before.

Su Yue, who was watering some flowers she had raised, looked at the vigorously growing and delicate flowers. The corners of her mouth raised, revealing a shallow smile.

The loud chirping of cicadas in the community reached Su Yue's ears, and something emerged in her mind.

Cicada, cicada pupae... bee pupae, oh! Lin Li said before that he bought me some bee pupae and said he would give them to me when I came back. How could I forget such an important thing?

Bee pupae are very good ingredients and are rarely seen in vegetable markets. Lin Li said at the time that he bought some bee pupae to give to Su Yue, who was feeling unwell, to replenish her health.

In Su Yue's view, the bee pupae in Lin Li's hands had some special meaning.

Dinglingling...

There was a cell phone ringing in the living room. Su Yue, who was watering potted plants on the balcony, had just watered all the flowers she raised. At this time, when she heard the ringing of her cell phone, she immediately put down the kettle in her hand and walked to the living room.

He picked up the phone and looked at the caller ID on the screen. It was Lin Li calling.

Hello?

Su Yue, didn't I tell you before that I bought some bee pupae to give to you?

Eh?!!! After hearing what Lin Li said, Su Yue suddenly showed a surprised expression on her face, because she had just thought of this matter a minute ago, but she didn't expect Lin Li to call and tell her about it.

What's wrong? Lin Li asked suspiciously when he heard Su Yue's surprised voice.

I was watering my potted plants on the balcony just now, and I thought about what you said about bee pupae before the Mid-Autumn Festival. I didn't expect that the next minute, you would call and talk about it... Su Yue smiled. explained.

A few minutes ago, in the kitchen, Lin Li opened the freezer of the refrigerator and was about to get some hand-made beef balls to make soup. He happened to see the bee pupae he had prepared for Su Yue before, so he picked up his mobile phone and called Su Yue. .

I was preparing dinner! Then I opened the refrigerator and saw bee pupae in the freezer, so I called you to tell you about it.

After I finish dinner, I will send this bee pupa to you... Lin Li said.

You haven't made dinner yet?

Um.

Su Yue held the mobile phone in her left hand, curled her silky hair with the index finger of her right hand, and said with bright eyes watery.

I cooked pumpkin porridge and steamed some corn, and I plan to fry two more vegetables for dinner... Now bring me the bee pupae, and don't cook dinner, just eat it at my house!

There was no way that Lin Li would refuse such an opportunity. After hearing this, he naturally agreed, Okay, I'll send it to you right away.

After hanging up the phone, Su Yue had a happy smile on her face. Thinking of Lin Li's appetite, she immediately stood up and walked to the kitchen, then added a few more corns to the steamer.

…………

Lin Li took out a bag of hard-frozen hornet pupae that had been blanched in water from the freezer of the refrigerator.

He put another plastic bag on the bag of frozen hornet pupae, and then left the house with it.

The community was very lively in the evening. Lin Li walked out of the corridor and immediately cast his eyes towards a big tree in the distance that was full of birdsong.

The group of children he saw on the balcony before had left now, and there were now two little wild cats squatting under the tree.

These two little things don't want to go to the tree to catch a few birds to eat! Lin Li looked at the little white cat and the little black cat in the distance and thought in his heart.

It will be dark soon, and the street lights in the community have already been turned on in advance.

Lin Li looked away from the little white and black cats in the distance and walked towards the gate of the community.

The two little wild cats looked at the many birds on the tree and discussed in a low voice.

Meow... how about it? As I said, let's go up and catch a few to taste them. said the little black cat.

Meow... I think it's better to forget it! It's not completely dark yet, so it's not easy to catch them.

Not only is it time-consuming and labor-intensive, but even if we catch them, they don't have much meat on them. We might as well go to the park to catch delicious big rats. The little white cat shook his head and refused.

Meow... ok! What you said makes sense. Let's go to the park to catch the big mouse as soon as possible. The little black cat did not insist on his opinion.

Then, it and its little friend quickly left the community and went to the park where they caught butterflies with Zhou Tongtong in the afternoon the night before.

…………

Ding dong.

The elevator door opened and Lin Li walked out. He was carrying a red plastic bag in his left hand and a white plastic bag in his right hand.

Pressing the doorbell on the wall, after a while, a familiar pleasant voice came from the house.

I'm coming.

Not long after he finished speaking, there was a click and the door in front of him opened.

Wearing a silk suspender nightgown with clear curves and beautiful figure, Su Yue appeared in front of her.

You're here! Su Yue said to Lin Li with a smile, and waved to him to come in.

Su Yue wearing a nightgown put a lot of pressure on Lin Li. Even though Su Yue had never seen Su Yue dressed like this, Lin Li still wasn't used to it.

I don't know when Su Yue started dressing very casually in front of Lin Li. Sometimes Lin Li couldn't help but wonder, did Su Yue not regard herself as a boy?

Why are you in a daze? Come in quickly. Su Yue saw Lin Li looking at her blankly, the smile on his face unchanged, and urged.

Oh. Lin Li, who was awakened, responded quickly and walked into the room.

He bent over and took out a pair of men's slippers from the shoe cabinet.

Lin Li glanced at Su Yue's beautiful back, moved his gaze down dozens of centimeters, and then quickly moved aside, not daring to take another look.

Why did you buy other things? Su Yue put her slippers on the ground and saw the two plastic bags Lin Li was carrying. One of them contained bee pupae and the other contained roast duck.

Putting on his slippers, Lin Li said with a smile, On the way here, I saw a mobile stall selling roast duck on the roadside.

I saw a lot of people queuing up to buy roast duck, so I went over to take a look. It smelled very fragrant, so I bought half of one.

It's really rare for a mobile stall selling roast duck to come to our place! Su Yue muttered as she took two plastic bags from Lin Li's hand.

Around our communities, apart from the vegetable market that sells roast duck and other cooked food, there are no such mobile stalls on the streets outside. I think the shop owner discovered this business opportunity, so he came here to set up a stall. Lin Li guessed with a smile.

At Su Yue's greeting, Lin Li went to the living room and sat down, then picked up the remote control and turned on the TV.

In the kitchen, Su Yue poured half of the roast duck bought by Lin Li onto a plate and brought it to the dining table.

Then, she took out the bee pupa sent by Lin Li and looked at it. When she saw the size of the bee pupa, she had a surprised expression on her face.

This bee pupa is so big! Have such a big bee pupa ever been sold in ordinary vegetable markets?

I remember the last time I saw such a big bee pupa, it was a gift from one of my dad’s friends. I heard that his friend also bought it at a high price from an exotic animal hunter...

Lin Li, who was sitting on the sofa in the living room watching TV, looked up at the clock hanging on the wall.

Huh? Why is the time wrong?

Lin Li was surprised to find that the time displayed by the hands of the clock on the wall was several minutes different from the time displayed on the TV.

He remembered that Su Yue bought the clock on the wall online for several hundred yuan.

At that time, he also laughed at Su Yue, saying that she was tricked into buying this clock.

In the end, Su Yue told him that although this clock was expensive, there would be no error in time after more than ten years of use.

Tap, step, step...

A sound of footsteps came from my ears, and immediately after, the sofa next to me shook.

The scent of orchid and musk slowly floated away. Lin Li took a deep breath, and the familiar smell lingered on the tip of his nose.

Lin Li, the bee pupae you bought at the vegetable market are very big. Compared with the bee pupae I usually see at the vegetable market, the quality is not the least bit better... Su Yue sat down next to Lin Li and turned her head. Looking at him, he said.

This is of course! After all, I got those bee pupae in the wilderness. Ordinary exotic animal hunters can't deal with those ferocious hornet wasps... Lin Li muttered in his heart, and then looked at Su Yue with a smile. .

I was lucky. I happened to meet the boss selling bee pupae that day and bought a batch of bee pupae of such good quality.

Su Yue nodded and did not continue the topic of bee pupae. At this time, Lin Li pointed at the clock on the wall and teased Su Yue.

Look, what did I tell you back then? The hundreds of dollars you spent buying this clock online were a complete waste of money.

Eh?!!! Su Yue didn't react for a moment, her eyes followed the direction pointed by Lin Li's finger and landed on the clock.

She looked at it carefully for a few seconds and said in confusion, What? My clock is fine. What's wrong?

Time! The most important function of a clock is to keep the time accurate.

Look at the time displayed on the clock and then look at the time displayed on the TV. There is a difference of more than ten minutes. Lin Li saw that Su Yue didn't find anything wrong with the clock, and he wasn't trying to make excuses, so he directly pointed out his findings.

Um... After Lin Li's reminder, Su Yue immediately looked at the time displayed on the clock, and then looked at the time displayed on the TV, and found that it was exactly what Lin Li said.

When I said you were cheated, were you still not convinced? You said that if you use this clock for more than ten years, the time will not be wrong.

It’s only been a few years now! There is a problem with time... Lin Li said with a smile.

There were not many opportunities to make fun of Su Yue, so he had to seize it.
