Lu Fangfang patted the spruce tree, which was thicker than her waist, and felt a little regretful.
Spruce is a type of pine tree, but it doesn't produce pine nuts.
Looking around, she saw that the forest was full of spruce trees that were dozens of meters tall. She had originally wanted to find a Y-shaped branch to cut down and make a slingshot, but now it would be hard to find one.
"Squeak, squeak..."
"Um?"
Lu Fangfang looked up curiously and saw a long-tailed squirrel standing on a spruce branch in front of her, nibbling on something.

"Smack."
With a soft thud, the squirrel on the branch tilted and fell straight down.

Lu Fangfang was stunned for a moment when she saw the gray squirrel that had fallen in front of her.
Did she just get lucky and stumble upon a dead mouse?
She fired half a box of lead bullets, and this was the first time she had ever hit her prey.
Seeing that the squirrel on the ground was still convulsing, Lu Fangfang drew the dagger from her waist, frowned, and cut open its throat to let the blood out.
Now that we've hit it, we can't waste it.

Lu Fangfang looked around but didn't see any other squirrels.
She didn't dare go deep into the woods alone, so she picked up the squirrel and turned to leave.
