After I succeeded in acting cute as an emperor penguin

Before arriving, Crane Ci thought about many scenes, such as the romantic scene of the two of them picking up shells while walking on the beach at sunset, with the waves washing back and forth.But what I never expected is...

Di Que, unexpectedly, brought him to catch the sea!?

The so-called catch the sea is to salvage and find seafood on the beach and reef when the tide is out.Of course, this word was also explained to him by Di Que.

Now Heci was holding a small bucket in one hand and a shovel in the other, and under the bright sunshine, he fell into deep self-doubt—the Emperor Que next to him was almost full of two buckets, but he only found some scallops.

Looking at Koizumi who was still bubbling water at his feet, He Ci could only obey Di Que's instructions and chose to squat down to play with the water, because he really couldn't tell whether the sunken bunker was sand or a snail, or something ……sea anemone.

At this moment, Di Que held a long pliers and took out a palm-sized crab in the slightly turbid rocky puddle like a stroll in the garden, took a look at it and threw it into the bucket, "Flower crab."

Crane Ci who just raised his head: "...!?"

Heci remembers that when he was a human being, he lived inland and had no time and money to go to the beach, and he was not very interested in seafood. Except for fish and kelp, he rarely ate shrimp, crabs and conch. haven't eaten.

"Brother, how do you tell the difference?" He Ci moved over and poked the bucket of seafood lightly with a small shovel. In addition to the moving crabs, there were many spicy snails and snails that he couldn't recognize. , but Di Que called something by name.

"If you want to learn, I can teach you." In fact, these memories exist deep in the mind of every evolved emperor penguin, and they will be mastered with a little guidance and connection.But this also means that next time He Ci can come alone... Isn't the Emperor Que useless?

"I, can I?" Heci's eyes lighted up slightly, and it wasn't for anything else. He wanted to choose as many shells as possible, so that the penguin ornaments would be more delicate. "Then let's work together! You are in charge." Catch it, I'll take care of it, how about it?"

Di Que considered it for a moment, then nodded.It's good for the crane to be happy.

Heci, who had regained his strength, stood up happily. He stopped looking for seafood and began to focus on finding shells.

Sensing the trajectory of He Ci's movements, Di Que leaned over without a trace.

After the tide ebbed, there were many strange creatures on the sand, most of which He Ci couldn't recognize, so he didn't rush to catch them.And after walking a certain distance, Heci can confirm that there are not many shells here, but there are many living things!

Just when He Ci retreated and prepared to go back to wait for the scallop shell, he suddenly saw a pure black open shell under the fluctuating water surface.

He didn't think too much, walked over quickly, stretched out his hand to pinch the eaves of the black shell, and picked it up to ask Di Que what kind of shell it was.

Emperor penguins are generally black, white and yellow. He was still hesitating whether to dye the shells, but now with black, it will be much smoother!

As a result, as soon as he turned around, with a soft "pop", the pain from his knuckles made He Ci reflexively "ah".

Di Que, who had been paying attention to Heci, looked over immediately, "What's wrong?"

"It's okay, it's just a pinch..." Heci choked suddenly, and in addition to the tingling pain, his fingertips seemed to touch something soft again...can move!? ? ?

In an instant, Heci's scalp was numb, and goose bumps all over his body, what is this thing!

Di Que had already leaned over and grabbed his wrist before Heci was so frightened that he swung his arm, and the scallop was wrapped in the cold ice crystals, and he pried it open and broke it off.

"What's wrong?" Sensing that He Ci pulled his hand to hide, Di Que thought that he was hurt by being touched, so he slowed down and pulled He Ci's wrist, wrapped the red knuckles with a semi-wet handkerchief, "Does it still hurt?"

Di Que's original intention was that he didn't want He Ci to have bad memories in the past few days, and even if there were... he would try to make them good.

Fortunately, Heci was only stimulated by the strange touch, his heart was beating wildly, he blinked after recovering for a while, hesitant to speak, he didn't know what to say.

He came to his senses, isn't the scallop alive? Just now he thought that the open mouth was just the shell, but he was caught off guard, and...the inside was still moving, so he overreacted.

"No...it doesn't hurt, really." He Ci refused to admit that he was so useless that he would be scared by the scallops, turned his face away in embarrassment, and curled his fingers to forget the strange feeling, "Brother, I'd better go back to the shore Wait for you."

The abnormality of He Ci's mood made Di Que frown and reflect on whether he did not understand what he meant, or what he did not do well enough?

Even though Di Que has a lot of "memories", it doesn't increase his experience of going out with the people he likes, and the more he cares, the more timid he becomes.When Heci avoided his approach just now, he even felt that this trip might be a wrong decision.

"Sorry." Di Que stared at He Ci's fingertips for a long time, then suddenly pulled his wrist.

Di Que, who was more than half a head taller than Heci, lowered his head docilely at this moment, and kissed the still red fingertips.

He Ci was startled by Di Que's actions, and it would be too foul to touch... "I'm really fine, the mark will disappear in a while, and it doesn't hurt. I just... didn't expect it."

Di Que's dark eyes stubbornly looked at He Ci, took his hand that was about to withdraw, and said affirmatively, "Today, you are not happy."

This time Heci was so surprised that he couldn't control his expression, he thought he was covering it up well!

But Heci was not ready to admit it, "No..."

Before he finished speaking, Di Que raised his hand to caress the side of Heci's face that was stained with sea water, interrupting his sophistry, "Why are you unhappy? Is it because you came out to play with me? Or are you bored?" Very happy.

"...Brother, do you care?"

"Well, I'm very concerned." Di Que nodded, seriously.He Ci's frankness about his feelings also affected Di Que. Right now, he couldn't guess Yuanyuan, and he didn't want to make He Ci unhappy, so he could only ask frankly, "I don't want you to think that coming out to play with me is something that will make you feel uncomfortable. something you're not happy about."

Heci blinked, and the little emotions that were suppressed in his heart quietly dissipated. He seemed to let go of something, and smiled uncontrollably, "Oh, I really think you are playing tricks on me."

The puzzled Di Que tilted his head: "?"

"Actually, I'm very happy, especially when I first came here." He Ci cleared his throat. Anyway, there are only the two of them here, and continued, enduring the embarrassment, "I thought I could be taken care of by you with peace of mind. But in fact, I want to take care of you too."

It's like playing a game to make money. If two people can support each other, even if they lose, they will have other fun.But one is a boss, and the other is a rookie... The rookie side has no experience, and will only feel that he is dragging the other party down. In the long run, he will lose the fun of this game.

Di Que seemed to understand something, his eyes were amazingly bright.

"But I've been doing a disservice, and now I can't even tell if the scallops are alive..." Crane Ci, who lowered his head, missed his change, and shrugged his shoulders pretending to be relaxed, "Anyway, don't you think I'm stupid, just get in the way."

"No." Di Que endured and endured, the corners of his mouth still slightly raised.

He understood that He Ci wanted to help him with something, but found that instead of helping him, he was even making trouble, so he started to sulk at himself.

So, it's still childish thinking.

Raising his hand to rub He Ci's black hair, Di Que sighed and seemed helpless, "You are still young, and... I like to take care of you very much."

"I'm not young anymore!" Heci wrinkled his nose and snorted softly, "Brother Nanyuan was born only one year earlier than me, and he and his sister-in-law are already preparing for pregnancy."

Emperor Que: "..."

When you go back, you must warn Xinyue not to let Heci receive any strange messages.

Cubs born in animal form can become adults within one year, but as time goes by, the disadvantages of this rapid evolution are also revealed.

Even if the inherited memory fragments can make them barely cope with daily life, after all, they have no experience in practice, they are all young and energetic, and their thinking is not very mature.And those children who were born in the form of evolution, although it will take more than ten years to reach adulthood, they are far behind the former in terms of experience and personality.

The most important thing is that the physical growth and aging conditions of the two from adulthood are the same. It can even be understood that the evolutionary creature that speaks in the form of an animal is more than ten years less alive than the one born in the evolutionary form.

Di Que also secretly suspected this, because the former seemed to be matured to cope with the lack of total population, while the latter was more like the correct way of survival for evolved creatures.It's just that they have developed so far, and it is still too difficult to change the concept of "cubs born in animal form are easier and easier to raise".

"...I didn't mean that." Di Que turned the topic back from pregnancy preparation with a little embarrassment, "I mean, you haven't experienced too much, it's all normal."

He spread Heci's palm, and his fingers slowly penetrated into the gaps between his fingers until they were intertwined, "Although you may think it's wrong for me to think so, but..."

"The more you can't live without me, the more you need me, the happier I am."

Crane Ci: "???" What did you say?

He was shocked by Di Que's dangerous speech! Did he actually think so?Don't you think a partner who knows nothing is a problem?

While He Ci was stunned, Di Que let out a dry cough, bent down and picked up the closed black scallop, pried it open easily with his fingertips, and said dryly, "Actually, we can also use this thing Eat it raw."

But he was full of thoughts, wondering what He Ci would think about what he said.

At that moment just now, Di Que wanted He Ci to accept his true self, although he couldn't find out what he looked like now.

"Huh!?" Crane Ci recalled that the wriggling scallop was still cooked, and moved back quickly with a shudder, "No, no, no! It's still cooked and delicious!"

Lifting his eyes and bumping into Di Que's smiling eyes, He Ci belatedly realized that he had overreacted, and pointed to the shore to cover up, "I'd better go back and wait for you."

Seeing that He Ci was successfully led astray, Di Que heaved a sigh of relief, but couldn't help but feel disappointed, "Let's go back together, the tide is about to rise."

The sea water rose slowly, covering the exposed seabed and reefs again.

In fact, before dinner, the most important thing is the accommodation issue. Just now, He Ci was about to take out the tent to show his hands, when he turned his head and found that Di Que directly built an igloo on the beach with his abilities.

For this reason, Heci was also worried that his powers would be overdrawn, so he used his own powers to "charge up" Di Que.

Today I seem to know more about Di Que, he is really particular about life.

For this reason, He Ci pondered for a while, and came to a conclusion: Didn't Di Que paste the ice walls in the caves because he was too busy?But because he likes it? ?

Well, for sure.

At this time, Di Que was skillfully processing the snail meat. After some operations, only white and tender meat slices remained on the ice plate. Characteristics.

That is, when Di Que was about to handle the scallops, Heci took a step back unconsciously.

He has a psychological shadow on scallops.

Di Que also discovered this, and immediately realized that he had an opportunity to behave: as long as He Ci likes shellfish, he dare not do it himself, isn't it...

"Let's make the bed first, this side will be ready soon." Di Que shook the scallops of different colors in his hand, "Do you want more shells?"

"I want it!" Crane Ci closed the notebook immediately as if he had received an amnesty.

Maintaining the superficial "peace" and division of labor and cooperation, everything seemed to be going well, but Di Que really didn't expect that Heci would reject even scallop meat.

The sea outside the igloo was still churning, and the orange-red sunlight fell on the beach, bringing a unique sense of warmth when it reflected into the house.

The two of them nestled on the bed, like a picnic vacation, and the laid out white cloth sheet was filled with various plates, cut fruits, chocolate candies, and the most important seafood plate.

"Everything else has been removed, I promise, it's just meat." Di Que picked up a piece of cooked scallop meat and turned it around for He Ci to see.

It was handled very cleanly, except for this small piece of tender meat. If he hadn't just introduced it, Heci would not have recognized what kind of meat it was.

Di Que tentatively handed the shiny and snow-white piece of meat to his lips, "Just take a bite, and if you find it unpalatable, just spit it out."

Crane Ci: "..."

He Ci took the chopsticks hesitantly, took a deep breath, and stared at Di Que's expression, "You said it."

Di Que nodded gently.

Slowly opening his mouth, Heci stretched out the tip of his tongue tentatively and licked it, then smacked his lips again and found that there was no strange smell, so he swallowed the shellfish meat.

Seeing the tip of He Ci's pink tongue circling flexibly between his lips and teeth, Di Que's Adam's apple rolled unconsciously, telling himself not to think too much, "Cough, how is it?"

Heci chewed vigilantly and in slow motion, feeling the novel taste on the tip of his tongue, and slowly opened his eyes wide.

There is no fishy smell when boiled in white water, but it is very tender and delicious!

It seems to be ok.

Di Que breathed a sigh of relief, calmly withdrew the hand on He Ci's lips, and handed the plate full of shellfish and snail meat to He Ci, "Do you want some dipping sauce?"

The really fragrant He Ci picked up a piece of shellfish with his ears red, and handed it to Di Que's mouth, "This is delicious."

Of course, Welfare Di Que would not refuse, and naturally opened his mouth to accept the feeding.

The two of them shared food next to each other, and He Ci looked at the shells of various colors washed by Di Que, his eyes sparkled, "Brother, can we... still come here in the future?"

Right in the middle of his heart, the heavy pressure in Di Que's heart finally dissipated.

After they returned to the group from the gathering, this opportunity to be alone seemed very rare. Di Que had no reason to refuse, and he didn't want to refuse, "Of course, you can call me anytime you want."

After eating and drinking enough, the two huddled together and listened to the sound of the waves. Di Que was facing the small book and added some species that were not caught today according to the above records. He Ci listened with confidence and felt that he would definitely be able to Harvest.

But before he was happy for a while, Heci suddenly remembered that in the beginning, in order to prove his usefulness, he also said that he would cook seafood. Now he is fine with snails, but that scallop...he is really not very good at it But it's really not good to eat free food.

"Brother, what are you going to do with the remaining bucket of seafood?" Heci asked tentatively.

Di Que was still taking "notes" for him, but when asked, he purposely said vaguely, "No rush, let's soak first." He procrastinated until tomorrow to get up early, and when He Ci woke up, he could have breakfast directly.

"Cough, although this should be my task, but..." He Ci noticed that Di Que's tolerance for himself seemed to be very high, and sometimes the bottom line would even retreat again and again. Que had a new understanding, and suddenly he had some other, dangerous thoughts.

He wanted to test it out.

If two people can't tell the difference between the palm of their hand and the back of their hand, then they can only...

"Let's do rock-paper-scissors. If you lose, give me half of the barrel, okay?" He Ci lamented his wit, but didn't realize that he looked so coquettish.

"Rock, scissors, cloth?" Di Que was a little confused, "What is that?"

Being asked a rhetorical question, He Ci remembered that there is no such thing as rock-paper-scissors for the time being in the evolution of animals, and felt guilty, with an expression of "you don't know" on his face, and told Di Que about the three Gestures, as well as the relationship of mutual restraint.

Di Que seemed really taken aback, and nodded seriously, "Understood."

Heci, who got away with it, brazenly pulled Di Que, and stared at Di Que without blinking, "Brother, if I produce cloth, what will you produce?"

Emperor Que: "?"

Just now, He Ci probably didn't mention this rule, right?

"I'm out..." From the corner of the eye, he saw He Ci's embarrassment to the point where his ears were burning red, and Di Que's happiness to his heart, and he suddenly understood the meaning of He Ci.

Scissors wins, rock loses.Di Que was extremely thankful that he swallowed the sentence "What if I win?" that came to his lips just now.

His eyes shifted to Heci's red lips, and for some reason, he suddenly remembered Heci's appearance when he was eating just now. Di Que felt a little itchy, and leaned over to Heci's neck and whispered, "Kiss me once, and I will come out immediately." Stone."

Hearing this, He Ci looked at Di Que in shock.Unexpectedly, Di Que was willing to cooperate! Is it possible to do this?Is Di Que so easy to talk to?

But Di Que, who was already a little guilty, met his eyes and thought he had been silently condemned.Indeed, according to the standards of "gentleness" and "kindness to He Ci", he should directly express that he will be stoned.

Di Que hesitated whether to pretend to be a joke to fool him, but he didn't notice for a moment, He Ci just kissed him.

His mood was like a roller coaster, he was taken aback for a moment, and when he was about to kiss back, Heci sat up straight again, and made another gesture of preparation, "Come on!"

Di Que clenched his back molars: "...um." Mistake.

In the end, as a matter of course, He Ci took over the snails in the bucket, and divided the scallops and crabs into Di Que.

The originally good romantic world of two people has changed from the very beginning to the teaching of sea catching and wild food. The two of them were busy together until the sun sank into the water, and they didn't go out to watch the sunset.

It's just that while He Ci was learning new dishes, he was always looking for opportunities to quietly look at Di Que.

Di Que felt terrified when he was seen, and secretly regretted that he shouldn't have asked for a "kiss". Not only did he not get any benefits, but he was also remembered by Heci.

This uneasy mood lasted until before falling asleep, when He Ci happily slipped into Di Que's arms, whispered "I like you so much", then closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.

Only Di Que, who was caught off guard and teased, couldn't fall asleep for a long time.So is he still successful today?Although I don't know why, Heci is really happy, isn't he?

........................

The breeze was blowing, and the breath was full of grass and trees. When I slowly opened my eyes, the surrounding scenery was a little blurry, but I could tell that I was in the jungle.

With the sound of gurgling water beside his ears, Di Que lowered his head and saw the figure reflected in the water—a big-horned deer.

Di Que froze for a moment, then moved instinctively, and the reflection in the water also moved.

"Emperor Que!"

Di Que, who had no memory at all, followed the prestige. He instinctively repelled the person walking out of the bushes, but the aura on the other person was somewhat familiar. This sense of contradiction made Di Que hesitate for a moment, and did not follow his body's instinct to leave immediately. .

The other party seemed to notice the softening of his attitude, he was very happy, and summoned up the courage to say loudly, "I already know everything, only I can help you, and I am willing to help you too!

"You want you to be with me, I am willing to help you!" The man said and moved a few steps closer excitedly.

In fact, as soon as Di Que heard this person speak, only one thought remained in Di Que's mind, "It's not him."

Moreover, the way the other party talked to himself made him instinctively bored, just as he was about to say something, his body was out of control at this moment!

Di Que's heart tightened, but luckily "my" reaction was similar to what he expected, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Di Que" walked a few steps, and when he spoke, his voice was familiar yet unfamiliar, without hiding the disgust and antipathy in his tone, "No need, don't waste your time."

That person was not hit by the indifference and rejection of "Emperor Que", and still wanted to get closer without giving up.

"Di Que" didn't give the other party a chance to speak, raised his front hooves, stepped hard on the ground, the strong wind blew the other party out violently, and barely stopped when he hit a thick tree.

"Last warning, trouble me again and kill you."

"Life ability, you are not missing."

When the dream was over, Di Que looked to his side immediately after opening his eyes - He Cixiao had half of his face pressed against his chest, breathing steadily.

Di Que's tense body slowly relaxed, he quietly hugged Heci a little tighter, rubbed his jaw against his hair, and only then began to straighten out the memory in his dream.

The memory just now was actually the first time Di Que was brought into memory, so real that he thought he was dreaming.

Because Di Que is usually like a bystander, watching "they" break away from the ethnic group and live their lives alone, but this time there is not only the existence of a second person in the memory, but even the conversation contains information.

What concerned Di Que the most was that the person who appeared suddenly was not an ordinary evolutionary creature, because the other party, like He Ci, had the power of life.

He also said that he could help "me", but the name he called was also "Di Que".

In the silence, the sea outside the house was rising, and the water splashed against the reefs on the shore.Di Que suddenly felt a little uneasy. Leaving aside the issue of the same name, he is more concerned about who can help that "Di Que" or the life ability?

Although the memory of "big horned deer" is not perfect, Di Que has a hunch that this is probably the most helpful memory for him.
