"Hi, little Zhe!" She happily splashed some water at Lu Zhe, then giggled.
Lu Zhe only now noticed that Jiang Yao's figure was also too good. They had been partners for so long yet he hadn't noticed.
Ning Shu held her forehead: "Yao Yao, you forgot that you're missing something on you now, right?"
Jiang Yao only then remembered that her bra was dirty so she was only wearing a black sailor JK school uniform soaked in seawater, clinging tightly to her body.
"You got water all over my face!"
"Oh my, I didn't notice! Sorry, sorry!"
Jiang Yao rushed over to Lu Zhe and said distressedly: "Oh dear, let me wipe it for you!" As she spoke, she lifted her clothes, about to wipe Lu Zhe's nose!
Unintentionally revealing her slender waist.
Was this really just wiping water?
It must have been deliberate!
"I'm telling you to stop messing around, okay?"
Although Lu Zhe was also aroused, he understood that now was not the time to pick up girls!
He wrinkled his brows rationally: "We don't have much time. If we can't find fresh water before noon, everyone may be in danger!"
Jiang Yao nodded: "Oh!"
"Let's keep moving forward, keep an eye out for supplies on the ground!"
Speaking, Lu Zhe walked ahead without looking back. He had to walk in front, otherwise if the class leader saw the change in the front of his pants, he would have more strange ideas!
Jiang Yao pouted and said: "Fine!" before following along.
The three of them continued forward, picking up some bottles, cans and plastic bags, as well as several pairs of slippers.
These things earned Lu Zhe another three potential points.
Luckily there were two pairs of women's slippers. Although they were different colors, one red and one yellow, they were both size 34, just enough to make a pair!
Ning Shu tried them on: "A little small, but Guo Er can wear them so she doesn't have to wear high heels anymore."
They also picked up a small bag of clams, and some crabs and whelks.
There were also some barnacles growing on the rocks, but without any handy tools there was no way to pry them open!
Give up for now!
Just keep moving forward!
Then, they came across something they had been hoping for!
Coconut trees!
Two coconut trees, each with fifteen or sixteen ripe coconuts, as well as some unripe ones in clusters hanging from the branches!
There were also a few ripe ones fallen on the ground, showing a faint coffee color!
This was too exciting!
At that moment, Ning Shu and Jiang Yao almost grabbed each other's hands and jumped up!
Jiang Yao said happily: "There's about 200ml of coconut water in a coconut. With about 30 coconuts total, that's about 6,000 milliliters of coconut water!"
Ning Shu said: "Isn't our fresh water issue solved for today?"
"Plus the distilled water, it should be enough!"
Lu Zhe was also very happy. He knew that although the fresh water provided by these two coconut trees would not sustain them for long, it showed him that coconut trees existed on this island!
So there was a possibility of finding more around the island.
"The fallen ones are easy to get, but how do we get the ones still on the trees down?"
Lu Zhe observed the two coconut trees, they didn't seem to be the same species, one tall and thin, the other short and fat!
The tall thin one had a diameter of about 30 centimeters and was over 10 meters high, with the trunk bending in an arc!
Lu Zhe rubbed his palms and hugged the trunk. With some effort he easily climbed up, then plucked the coconuts above one by one and threw them onto the beach!
15 coconuts in one go.
Earning him some more potential points.
The other coconut tree was only 8 meters high, but had an almost half meter diameter trunk, with even more coconuts hanging from its branches!
But because the trunk was so thick, there was nowhere to grab to climb it!
Lu Zhe tried looking around for a long stick to poke the coconuts down, but only found a three meter long stick!
"Completely not long enough!"
"What now? Wait for them to fall by themselves?"
Lu Zhe shook his head: "We don't have time to wait!"
He thought for a moment and came up with an idea.
He was 1.8 meters tall. Ning Shu and Jiang Yao were both about 1.64 meters. Compared to Ning Shu from the tennis club, Jiang Yao was slightly weaker physically.
If the three of them stood on each other's shoulders, they would reach almost 5 meters. Adding the over 3 meter stick, they might really be able to poke the coconuts down!
"I've got it. Later, you stand on my shoulders, class leader, then Yao Yao climbs up and stands on your shoulders. Then Yao Yao can use this stick to poke at the coconuts!"
Ning Shu's eyes lit up: "Good idea!"
But then she hesitated: "But Lu Zhe, you'll have to bear both of our weight. Can you take it?"
Lu Zhe smiled: "This bit of weight is nothing. The key question is, can you take it?"
"Me? Of course!"
Jiang Yao said: "Standing on the class leader's shoulders, how embarrassing!"
Ning Shu waved her hand unconcernedly: "It's for survival, this is nothing!"
Lu Zhe nodded and said: "Later, I'll crouch in front of the trunk. Class leader goes up first, Yao Yao climbs up last. Remember, lean your body forward against the trunk. Never lean back, understand?"
The two girls nodded together: "Understood!"
Lu Zhe came to stand below the tree and crouched down!
Ning Shu took off her shoes and stepped onto Lu Zhe's shoulders barefoot!
"Alright, your turn Yao Yao!"
"Sorry about this, class leader!"
Jiang Yao also took off her shoes, grabbed Lu Zhe's arms and climbed up, before climbing onto Ning Shu!
Finally, Lu Zhe straightened up first, then Ning Shu straightened up, and lastly Jiang Yao straightened up too!
"Ready!"
Lu Zhe handed up the stick that was on the ground beside him!
Ning Shu stood barefoot on Lu Zhe's shoulders. With one hand holding the trunk, Jiang Yao slowly lifted the stick and poked at the coconuts above!
With barely any effort, one came loose!
The coconut fell onto the beach with a "pa" sound!
"Haha, perfect!"
"Great job Yao Yao!"
"Keep going!"
"It's pretty easy, Yao Yao is best at standing high up!"
Whoosh! She poked another one loose!
This time the coconut bounced off a protruding rock before landing on the sand!
Then, several more in quick succession!
"I almost got that one over there, Xiao Zhe could you shift left a bit!"
"OK, hold steady!"
Lu Zhe slowly shifted left, but Jiang Yao almost tumbled down as soon as he moved: "Whoa, watch it, I wasn't ready yet..."
Lu Zhe had no choice but to look up to spot her, but as soon as he looked up, he saw something else!
Ning Shu was wearing her tennis skirt, but without any shorts underneath...
It was white with pink lace trim, and even had a little cartoon bear...
Purely by accident!
I really didn't mean to see any of this!
Ning Shu felt something was off and glanced down. Only to realize Lu Zhe was staring up!
Suddenly Ning Shu understood!
"Ah... You pervert!"
"It was an accident, really..."
"Hey, don't look!"
She reflexively went to hold down her skirt, but didn't keep her balance!
Her body tilted back...
