Chapter 848: Aura Hairpin

The only difference was the weird green goo next to it.

"A bit like slime?" Qin Shi poked the pea paste with a fork.

Huang Tianyi was still struggling: "Eat it, it can't be worse than soy milk."

Surina took a bite, sighed, and said, "The British have afternoon tea just to skip their meals."

"Try this!" Mara pushed a plate of something black. "English blood sausage, made with pig's blood and oats."

I can't imagine these two ingredients mixing together.

Song Ci bravely took a piece, swallowed it expressionlessly, and suddenly said with joy, "It's delicious, so delicious, you all try it."

Ling Xiuzhi looked disdainful, "The acting is terrible, too exaggerated!"

Mara, however, was enjoying her meal. She smiled as she cut into the shepherd's pie in front of her. "This is real English comfort food. Under the puff pastry is... uh, ground beef and carrot stew."

I was just about to try it, but when I heard the last word, my appetite was gone.

"At least the beer is good." Zhao Hu took a sip of local beer. "The only thing the British did right was bring brewing technology to New Zealand."

When paying the bill, the head waiter kindly asked, "Are you satisfied with the food in our restaurant?"

We looked at each other, and finally Ling Xiuzhi managed to say, "It's quite a generous portion."

This evaluation is very pertinent.

After returning to the hotel, Xiaoyan and the others came to our room for a meeting. They felt like they were facing a great enemy for tomorrow's itinerary.

My life is at stake, so of course I don't think they are making a big deal out of nothing.

"Ms. Xia, we have made a contingency plan for tomorrow and we need your strict cooperation." Zhao Hu's expression was so serious that I felt like I was walking on the edge of a knife.

I swallowed hard and replied dryly, "Don't worry, Uncle Zhao, I will definitely cooperate."

Zhao Hu was stunned. Song Ci casually interjected, "Your uncle Zhao's surname is Qian."

Only then did I remember that Zhao Hu was just a careless pseudonym.

Zhao Hu, whose surname was Qian, waved his hand and said, "Just call me Uncle Zhao outside, so as not to get caught by mistake."

In fact, a mission like this is not an undercover mission.

I cursed my dad many times again in my heart. If it weren't for the trouble he caused, I wouldn't be so worried.

The most annoying thing is that I can’t scold him to his face now. Alas, I have to continue to sulk.

"You have to dress low-key and inconspicuously tomorrow," Xiaoyan said to me, and handed me a hairpin with a somewhat exaggerated shape and quite large size.

"Put this hair clip on in the morning. If something happens and I can't see you, press the button and your hair clip will have sound and light feedback."

I reached out and took the hairpin. It was almost as long as my palm and felt quite heavy in my hand.

It is a spring clip that is a bit thick and looks like the kind of hairpin that can be used to hold a ponytail.

The main body is in the shape of a flower, and each petal is inlaid with a large rhinestone.

It doesn't look ugly, just a bit bulky.

I asked curiously, "What kind of sound and light feedback is that? Can you show me?"

Xiaoyan took out a car key-like object from her trouser pocket and pressed it, and suddenly the sound of "The wind comes from the grassland, blowing my heart, blowing my love..." rang out in the room, and it was the RAP version!

The noise is louder than that of an old phone, you can even use it for square dancing.

Not only that, the hairpin also emits several colorful lasers. The light beams are clearly visible and keep spinning. Just one hairpin can create a disco atmosphere.

"Okay, okay, okay~ Turn it off. I get it. It's really eye-catching. I don't worry about getting lost anymore."

I hurriedly asked Xiaoyan to turn off that thing, but Huang Tianyi had already started dancing to the rhythm.

Xiaoyan pressed the remote control again and the music stopped.

I received a message from Su Rina in the group chat on my phone: [Did you hear that? There seems to be people square dancing here! Want to join in the fun?]

Pang Xiaomin: [Okay, okay, I wonder if it's the same as in China.]

Xiao Yan replied: [No, go to bed! I have to get up early tomorrow.]

As soon as it was dawn, Xiaoyan came knocking on the door, and this time it was my turn to open the door.

She watched me put the hairpin on my head and praised me with satisfaction: "It actually looks pretty good on you. When I first saw this thing, I thought it was quite ugly."

I:"……"

What can I say? Let alone a flower, even if it is shaped like a garlic, I would wear it if you asked me to.

On the way to Rotorua, the pastoral scenery outside the window is so beautiful that it is hard to take your eyes off.

Flocks of sheep can be seen everywhere on the green hillsides, and occasionally you can see a few cute alpacas grazing leisurely.

"There is no spring in sight on the horizon, only flocks of sheep and horses." Tan Shi recited the poem.

"Where are the horses?" Pang Xiaomin said with a raised eyebrow.

Qin Shi said without a trace of guilt, "Alpaca is also a horse."

"Look! Black goose!" Su Rina suddenly exclaimed, pointing out the window.

On the surface of Lake Rotorua, several elegant black swans were stretching their long necks.

Qin Shi corrected him disdainfully: "It's Black Swan! One word difference would have sent him from National Geographic to the Agriculture Channel!"

Su Rina didn't care at all. She waved her hand and said, "I know you're a talented woman, but there's no need to be so picky about words. Swan is also goose, and they'll definitely taste just as good when braised."

"Haha~ You are even more ruthless than me who is from Guangzhou!" Huang Tianyi laughed.

As we got closer to Lake Rotorua, the smell of sulfur in the air became stronger and stronger.

Finally arrived at the destination. If Xiaoyan and the others hadn't been on guard at all times, I would have almost forgotten that there were still some unruly people trying to harm me.

"Lake Rotorua was formed by the depression after the volcanic eruption. It covers an area of ​​80 square kilometers and is the third largest lake in New Zealand."

Mara explained, “There is a lot of geothermal activity in this area, and there is constant geothermal activity under and around the lake.”

She pointed forward and said, "Look over there."

We all turned our heads and looked. Not far away from the lake, wisps of steam were rising from the cracks in the ground and the surface of the lake.

"That's a steam cloud with a high sulfur content, a unique sight here."

Walking by the lake, I could clearly feel that the temperature here was higher than before, and the ground under my feet seemed to be slightly warm.

The smell of sulfur in the air is obvious but not pungent.

"Look, the color of the lake is so strange!" Huang Tianyi suddenly exclaimed, pointing at the lake.

The lake water was a magical green-blue color, sparkling in the sunlight, so beautiful that it was hard to look away.

Mara explained with a smile: "This is because the sulfur content in the lake water is relatively high, so the color looks so special.

The color of the lake water will change under different weather and light conditions."
