Chapter 246: Island Hoarding Tour

According to the introduction in the travel guide, combined with the various information on the mobile travel software, Youxi and the other two decided not to stay in the hotel this time. There are many people coming in and out of the hotel, and it is easy to run into other tourists.

Moreover, they cannot stay in a safe place for the entire 22 days this time. In addition to looking for hidden stations, they have to walk around and trigger more prompts.

First, it is to get tickets, and second, Lin Wu also has a piece of Easter egg fragment at this station, but the range is not yet known.

If you want to find these, you have to go out more. It is not convenient to go in and out of the hotel.

So when they were eating in the western restaurant, they discussed it and finally decided to rent a villa by the sea. It doesn’t need to be very big, with two rooms and a kitchen where you can cook.

Finally, they chose a villa located on the southeast corner of the island. The villa faces the sea, but not on the beach. Instead, it is built on a not very high hill behind the beach, at the edge, with a large wooden terrace facing south. With

such a geographical location, they can go in through the main entrance or climb up from the bottom of the hill to the window.

Because it is not a water house or a beach villa, the price is not expensive. A villa with three bedrooms, a living room and a kitchen costs only 2,000 per day.

They have already placed an order on their mobile phone and prepaid for ten days.

After that, they found a car rental company on their mobile phone and rented an electric car. Because they added extra fees, the other party was willing to drive the car over for them.

Now that they have a place to live and the car is arriving soon, the next step is to stock up for the next 22 days and other stations. Now that the team is bigger, Youxi feels that she can't just stock up based on her own wishes. Tang Yatong and Lin Wu must have things they want to stock up. Lin Wu's 10 cubic meters of space can be used to store some of the most basic and most needed things. Other things that are not so urgent can be bought and placed with her.

"Buy them separately, otherwise it will be too targeted." Youxi suggested. After all, once she makes a move, she will definitely have more than one car.

Lin Wu originally meant to do so, but he is a rough person. If he really lets him take what he needs, there is really nothing else to take except for some paper towels and disposable underwear. As for other personal items, he has bought everything he should buy.

Finally, he thought about it and said, "Let's put it this way. This is a tourist island. I just saw that the supermarket has a special water sports equipment area. I remember that you only bought two sets of diving equipment there, and only one oxygen tank, nothing else. I will go there first after I get my personal supplies. I will give you the water. I will eat it anyway."

Youxi made an OK gesture to him and pushed the cart away with Tang Yatong.

She thought Tang Yatong would go to the convenience food area first, and take at least ten boxes of instant noodles, instant vermicelli, self-heating hot pot, and self-heating rice, but she went to the fruit and vegetable area first.

After asking about the types and quantities of fruits and vegetables in Youxi, Tang Yatong couldn't help but look at her a little more: "You didn't buy any vegetables? It's not like you."

Youxi: ...

"The time at each station is very short, and I'm the only one there, so I didn't think about cooking. I just stocked up a box of dehydrated vegetables. That's convenient."

Tang Yatong messed up her already messy short hair even more: "Here are the washed and matched vegetables according to the quantity. We buy that, cut it up and stir-fry it and we can eat it. It's also convenient for me to do it."

She said, and went straight to the high-end clean vegetable area at the other end of the shelf.

The clean vegetables here are all matched in boxes, even with onions and garlic, and the vegetables are divided into hot pot area, stir-fry area, and salad area.

The hot pot category is a large vegetable platter, a shallow basin the size of a tray, with six grids around it with six kinds of hot pot dishes, and in the middle are usually green onions, ginger, garlic and small dipping sauces.

Just open the salad and pour the matching salad dressing on it before eating.

While Tang Yatong was focusing on the boxed stir-fried vegetables and salads, Youxi emptied all the vegetable platters in the hot pot area. She had never eaten hot pot since coming to the Endless Train World, and now there were three people together, so eating hot pot was also lively.

The two of them moved most of the cart of various boxed platters of vegetables, and the rest of the space was filled with boxed fruits. Youxi had previously stockpiled two or three boxes of each kind of fruit, so this time she picked similar types and stocked up ten boxes first, and then selected various tropical fruits that did not have the space.

Pineapple honey, durian, papaya, pineapple, star fruit, except for papaya and star fruit, all others were already peeled, and I took ten boxes of each.

Then I took a box of apples and crystal pears.

Coconuts are abundant in tropical islands, and there are all kinds of coconut drinks here, most of which are additive-free. Boxed coconut juice is more convenient than buying coconuts directly, and it saves space.

After tasting at the tasting bar, Youxi and Tang Yatong picked two brands with the sweetest taste and bought five boxes each, 24 boxes per box, a total of 240 boxes.

Most of the customers in the supermarket are tourists. Many people come here to buy special gifts to take back. There are many people with carts taller than them, but they don’t buy a whole cart of vegetables and fruits like them.

When the two were checking out, the person from the car rental company called to say that the car had arrived. Youxi asked him to drive to the supermarket exit and pushed the cart directly over. While handing over, he also put all the things he had bought into the car (space).

As before, the car still chose a one-way film, and in order to facilitate loading, he chose a car with the largest trunk capacity.

After the person from the car rental company verified the information and left, Youxi and Tang Yatong moved the things in the cart into the car, and Youxi was responsible for transferring them directly into the space, and then the two entered the supermarket again. This time, I went to the seasoning shelf first. Since I want to cook occasionally, all kinds of seasonings are indispensable.

Oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, sugar, black and white pepper, cumin powder, curry powder... They took two portions of each according to the maximum capacity. Salt, which can be used as a trade item in an emergency, was directly taken from a box with 50 bags.

They took 20 bags of spicy beef and mutton soup hot pot bags each. Since they had the hot pot seasoning, meat and vegetables were also indispensable. The two went to the freezer and took 20 boxes of fat sheep and

fat beef rolls each, and took some hot pot meatballs and konjac vermicelli in appropriate amounts. After all, it was a mission station, and they couldn't really make a hot pot as comprehensive as they did in daily life. It would be fine if there were meat and vegetables.

However, in a supermarket on an island, the largest quantity and variety of fresh food is still seafood. Youxi and Tang Yatong checked and finally selected four kinds of seafood: salmon fillet, king crab, nine-segment shrimp, and oysters.

These do not require much preparation. Salmon can be eaten raw, and the others can be boiled directly, and then dipped in soy sauce and oyster sauce.

After getting the seafood, they went to the meat shop next door. The most convenient to prepare were lamb chops and steaks, and they took 20 portions of each. They decided to take the other meats directly to the restaurant.

Next, they bought a lot of foods that can be used as breakfast, such as eggs, milk, bacon, ham slices, cheese slices, and butter bread.

Especially milk, which is essential for making coffee. In addition to fresh milk, Youxi also took a few boxes of room temperature milk, and stocked up on instant coffee and drip coffee.

After the two settled the bill, they ran to the garage again to transfer the things to the car (space).

On the way back to the supermarket, the two passed by a tobacco and alcohol store first. Youxi saw Tang Yatong looking back every few steps, so he hooked her in and swept two large shopping bags of tobacco and alcohol.

After that, the two passed by a snack shop, which had all kinds of snacks from sweet to salty, including soft candy, chocolate cookies, soft cakes, seaweed duck tongues, beef jerky, dried fruits, and dried fruits.

Tang Yatong doesn't eat snacks much, but Youxi likes them. These things are packaged in small pieces, and can be used to fill hunger in special circumstances-especially when the mouth is hungry.

"Okay, let's buy some!" Tang Yatong took her inside, and when they came out, each of them had two oversized shopping bags in their hands. They didn't have to go to the supermarket this time, and they turned around and went back to the car to put their things.

So far, all the fresh food for the three of them was stocked up. They planned to go to other places to buy staple foods such as rice and noodles later, as these things can be bought in ordinary supermarkets.

However, it is more convenient to buy the daily clothes and daily necessities for the three of them in large supermarkets. Youxi and Tang Yatong went to the sportswear aisle and bought seven or eight sets of sportswear for each of them according to their sizes, ranging from T-shirts, shorts, trousers, sunscreen suits, ice sleeves, waterproof jackets, sports shoes and slippers.

Afterwards, she took a lot of take-away boxes, garbage bags, tissues, wet wipes, disposable underwear, and the most needed menstrual products for girls. Youxi had bought very few of these things before, but Tang Yatong was even more ruthless than her. She directly got some birth control pills and simply delayed her menstrual period...

In fact, Tang Yatong was helpless about this. She died of natural causes, and her menstrual period had already stopped when she died. As a result, after being resurrected by the system tower, she had the body of a 30-year-old again, and naturally, her menstrual period was resurrected...

There were so many complaints...

While Youxi was filling the cart with night and daily safety pants, she was listening to Tang Yatong's story. At this time, Lin Wu called and said that he had bought everything he needed, from the lifeboat that could be opened instantly to oxygen cylinders to earplugs.

He even bought two engine thrusters that can be manually installed on the rubber boat, and learned the installation tutorial briefly. Now he only needs gasoline, and the rubber boat that was originally drifting with the waves can move like a speedboat.

However, because there are many water supplies, he left the address of the intersection near the villa and asked the other party to deliver the goods later. They can just go to the intersection to pick them up.

The three of them felt that today's stockpiling can come to an end. Anyway, they have to stay here for 21 days and go out every day. Then they can continue to stock up sporadically.

**

The three drove the electric car back to the villa. The villa is a single-story villa, but because it is on a hill, the view is very good. The sea is right outside the floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room.

The color of the sea here is very beautiful. It is pure blue at the farthest point, and the color becomes lighter as you get closer, gradually turning into a clear blue-green color. The sea is a transparent green near the sea, and with the white sand, it is a dreamlike scenery.

There is an induction cooker in the villa. In the evening, the three of them cooked hot pot and moved tables and chairs to the terrace to eat. Although there are not many types of hot pot dishes, with the beautiful view of the sea and sky outside, even a bowl of instant noodles will become delicious.

After a perfect hot pot, a box of pineapple honey, and three cups of iced coffee, the three people in Youxi took inventory of their belongings and found that they were still missing some purified water, cold-proof clothes, and fuel.

There is no such thing as too much gasoline. Just like before in the deserted land, they could not have traveled so easily with only a car but no gasoline. If there was not enough gasoline, they would not even dare to turn on the air conditioner. It was terrible to think about being stuck in the car in such high temperatures.

In addition, the engine thrusters bought today and the generators that Youxi bought before all require gasoline, so the more fuel the better, just in case.

"Tomorrow we will mainly replenish these items. The supplies part is over. Next is the layout analysis of the entire Paradise Island."

After Lin Wu finished speaking, Youxi took out a notebook and pen from the space and showed the two people the map she had drawn. The map in the travel guide was a color photo, but it was not as clear as her line map.

The entire Paradise Island was in the shape of a crescent, with the concave part facing west and the convex part facing east. The two crescents pointed from the northwest to the southeast and finally to the southwest.

The island is not big, and their current activities are all in the southern part, which is the third of the area below the crescent. The south of the island has the most beautiful white sand beach, the clearest turquoise water, and coral reefs suitable for snorkeling.

To the west is Moonlight Bay, which is the beach with the longest coastline. There are the most tourists there, and hotels and commercial streets are nearby.

The middle of the island is the urban area, where some important public facilities are located, including the police station, library, school, hospital... This is also where many locals live.

There are hills in the southeast, with few hotels and mostly villas that provide rental services. There are also many supporting shops and restaurants around.

The northeast side is higher, and the hills are full of various ancient buildings and totemic stone pillars with a long history. There are all kinds of strange trees standing on the hills. Some trees are said to date back to the paleontological period. It is one of the check-in attractions.

There is another small island offshore outside the beach. This small island is low-lying and small in area. It will only be exposed at low tide and will be submerged at high tide.

The north side is undulating and is a hilly area. It is also the village of the indigenous people of Paradise Island: the Black Bola tribe. The original lifestyle has been maintained there to this day. Tourists can visit and experience it. It is also one of the attractions on the island.

The port and the airport are both in the northwest corner.

Paradise Island has only one port and one airport. The airport is relatively small and can only land small aircraft. The port is relatively large and is divided into two areas: cargo and passenger.

Generally speaking, there are not many interesting attractions on the island. It is mainly a leisure resort island with natural sea views, and most of the attractions are concentrated on the outer circle of the island.

Tang Yatong tapped Youxi's head in approval: "The drawing is very clear, and the markings are also clear. Even the main roads are drawn. The west is the beach bay, which has many tourists. Tomorrow we will drive from the southeast corner where we are now along the coastline to the north, and then go around the island and visit these iconic places."

This is a more suitable route, and Youxi and Lin Wu agreed.

Although the three of them spent a relatively leisurely and relaxed day, they did not relax their vigilance and still allocated time to take turns to watch the night.

The first night was calm and the only sound that came into their ears was the sound of waves and tides.

Tang Yatong was on the last shift. She went to bed the earliest and slept for six hours. When Youxi and Lin Wu woke up, she had already prepared breakfast for all three of them.

Bread fried with butter, ham, cheese, lettuce and eggs, convenient and delicious.

She not only prepared three breakfasts, but also made sandwiches with all the bread she bought yesterday, and packed them into takeaway boxes one by one, neatly stacked on the table, and let Youxi put them in when she woke up.

Youxi looked at the twenty or thirty take-out boxes on the table and reached out to applaud her sister Yatong. No wonder she asked her to put all these things in the refrigerator in the kitchen before going to bed last night. It turned out that they wanted to make sandwiches that could be eaten directly.

When the three of them walked out of the villa, they happened to meet a family of four living in another villa next door. They said they were on vacation and entered the villa only half a day earlier than them. They also said that they smelled the hot pot for their dinner and said it was very delicious. They asked them where they bought the food.

"It's near the commercial street in Moonlight Bay to the west. There is a large supermarket there with a full range of items." Youxi simply pointed to the road and left with the other party's thanks.

They drove for a day, stopping and starting, getting off at every scenic spot, but everything around them was normal, nothing strange happened, and no new notifications appeared on their phones.

In the afternoon, they arrived at the village of the Hebola tribe in the north of the island. This village built in the tropical primeval forest was also very lively. Many tourists changed into local clothes, painted, participated in their traditional activities, and enjoyed the highest standard of traditional food.

They couldn't understand the language of the Hebola people. Since entering the world of endless trains, the language system seemed to be default. They didn't encounter language barriers in the previous stations they visited.

This was the first time.

This phenomenon made the three of them stay alert throughout the dinner, but nothing unusual happened until the event ended and they were sent off.

That night, they drove south along the Coast Avenue of Moonlight Bay. It was late at night, and most of the shops near the Coast Avenue were closed. Without the neon lights, the whole island seemed to be dim.

But the sea water not far to their right was clearly visible, and the moon hanging above the sea was surprisingly bright. It seemed that it was because it was about to be full, and there was no pollution on the island, so the moonlight was so bright.

For three consecutive days, they ran all over the island, and even went to the library and hospital in the central area.

During this period, Lin Wu's collection of Easter egg fragments was triggered. He carefully analyzed the prompts and successfully found his first memory fragment.

But the mood of the three people did not improve.

This was their fourth day at the Paradise Island Station, and they almost forgot that they were in the mission world.

The three of them ate, drank and played every day, just like they were really on vacation on the island. Even the tourists who had become extremely vicious in order to plunder skills and items had never appeared near them.

Before going to bed that night, Youxi pulled the curtains and glanced at the moon outside.

The moonlight was not that bright today, and it turned out that the moon was waning.

When it was almost dawn, she woke up to the screams coming from the nearby villa. Tang Yatong and Lin Wu also woke up at the same time. The three of them put on their clothes casually, quickly left the villa, and rushed to the villa next door.

There are relatively tall trees planted between the villas here, and you have to turn a corner to see the condition of another villa.

In the darkness before dawn, the door of the villa where the screams came from was open, and there was no light inside, so it looked pitch black.

The three of them stopped in front of the villa and looked at each other.

There was no sound.

Not only was there no sound, there was not even the normal breathing of a human being.

The villa was empty.
