The rest area was a mess, with some cutlery and utensils scattered on the floor, as well as some condiments that were no longer recognizable.
A pungent, unpleasant smell wafted from the kitchen...
Cat spotted Mu Jin at a glance. She walked over and looked him up and down. He was completely unharmed, and even amidst the mess, his handsomeness remained unaffected.
Relieved, the cat asked, "What happened?"
The others all stared at Mu Jin with strange expressions on their faces.
The cat also looked at Mu Jin, seeking an answer.
For some reason, Mu Jin casually tossed aside the shovel he was holding and said nonchalantly, "Based on the scene, we can preliminarily conclude that the kitchen exploded."
The cat immediately looked towards the kitchen, where the kitchen door, resembling the mouth of a monster, was still emitting wisps of black smoke.
She stepped forward and bravely peered inside. The once luxurious kitchen now resembled a cannon barrel. On the floor lay a deformed pot, and next to it was a blackened, charred, unrecognizable creature that could still be vaguely identified as a fish…
The cat exclaimed in surprise, "Wow, that's amazing! Did the kitchen explode by itself?"
The group fell silent for a moment, their eyes still darting towards Mu Jin.
Should I tell you? That Jin Er blew up the kitchen?
With her back to the cat, Mu Jin glanced at the others indifferently, the warning in her eyes quite obvious.
As a result, no one stepped forward to identify the murderer.
Then the cat asked again, "Why aren't you all saying anything? Who was stewing fish just now? Does he have a grudge against the fish or the people on the boat? Is there another kitchen on this boat? What are you planning to eat for the next few days?"
The group's expressions turned strange as they began to worry about themselves. Right, there seemed to be only one kitchen on this ship. What would they eat for the next few days?
"Jin Er..." Ye Mingshi had just begun to speak.
Mu Jin said, "Ye Mingshi, since you blew up the kitchen, you should at least clean up this mess. What kind of place is this?"
Ye Mingshi was stunned. He pointed at himself in disbelief and asked, "This kitchen... I blew it up?"
Mu Jin retorted, "If it wasn't you, then was it me?"
Ye Mingshi held his breath. He noticed that everyone else was looking at him with accusing expressions, even the cat!
Ye Mingshi said bitterly, "Yes, I blew up the kitchen, so what? What can you do to me? I'll... clean it up right now."
After saying that, Ye Mingshi walked over, slammed the kitchen door shut, took two pieces of paper, crossed them, and stuck them on the door, writing a big character on it: "Sealed!"
Then, he quickly swept up the scattered tableware on the ground and threw it all into the trash can.
The windows of the lounge were wide open, and the sea breeze blew in, quickly dispelling the smell.
After the messy lounge was tidied up, the windows were closed, and the group sat on the sofa, staring at each other.
Ye Ming sighed deeply and said, "I am a very self-aware person. If I had blown up the kitchen a few years ago, I would definitely stay far away from it and never, ever touch it again!"
As he said this, he looked at Mu Jin with a knowing and suggestive gaze, as if to say that Mu Jin had not only blown up the kitchen, but had done it a second time.
So, the cat protectively said, "Ye Mingshi, why are you looking at Ajin? I haven't even settled accounts with you yet, and you've blown up the kitchen. How is Ajin supposed to eat?"
Ye Mingshi looked at the cat with a wronged expression: "This... I didn't want to either. How could I have known that fate would play such a trick on me? Misfortune comes out of the sky. How could I have prevented it?"
The cat said disdainfully, "How can you be so self-righteous?"
Ye Mingshi was almost laughing in anger. He said, "I learned it all from Jin Er. He's even more self-righteous than me!"
They're framing me with such righteous indignation! Look at them, they don't even blink!
This made Ye Mingshi seem like a complete scoundrel.
Gu Zeyi calmly patted Ye Mingshi's shoulder and advised, "Kitty, don't blame Ye Mingshi. He didn't do it on purpose. He just... wanted to make you some fish soup. Who would have thought he'd end up sacrificing the kitchen to the gods?"
The cat immediately asked, "You're making me fish soup? Why?"
Ye Mingshi paused for a moment, then quickly glanced at Mu Jin. He immediately smiled and said, "Isn't that because you love fish soup? I fished for that fish alone for three hours in the cold sea wind before I finally caught it. It's just a pity... I didn't get to make you a bowl of delicious fish soup in the end."
Upon hearing this, Mu Jin slightly raised her eyelids and glanced at Ye Mingshi.
Ye Mingshi was smug. Heh, you're allowed to frame me, but I'm not allowed to claim military merit?
Upon hearing this, the cat felt a little reluctant to argue with Ye Mingshi, and said, "Let's just let this matter go."
Cat looked at Ah Jin and said, "Ah Jin, what do you want to eat? They all seem a bit unreliable. I'll cook for you."
Mu Jin lowered her eyes, her cold gaze clearly filled with suspicion. "You can't even tell the difference between salt and sugar, can you? You can cook?"
The cat confidently said, "Just because I don't eat it doesn't mean I can't cook it. Anyway, I'm not as stupid as Ye Mingshi, and I won't blow up the kitchen."
Ye Mingshi felt offended.
Mu Jin paused for a moment, feeling offended as well.
Fifth Zhen leaned against the door, watching the show with amusement that was almost bursting out laughing! It had only been a few months since they last met, and she hadn't expected Jin Er and Maomao to be making such a smooth progress!
He couldn't even imagine that a man like Jin Er would personally go into the kitchen and cook.
He patiently fished for three hours, and despite Ye Mingshi and the others' repeated attempts to dissuade him, he went into the kitchen with unstoppable momentum, cleaned the fish, and cooked it. Everything went smoothly until the result was quite unexpected.
The power of this explosion was almost as great as a hand grenade.
Fifth Zhen felt it wasn't fair to just watch the show, so he said, "I've already checked, there's another kitchen on the second floor, it's just a bit small."
Cat looked at Fifth Zhen, who immediately stood up and said, "Ah Jin, just wait and see what my cooking is like."
Mu Jin said, "Jiu Maomao, you don't need to go. Let Wu Zhen go."
Fifth Zhen glanced at Mu Jin speechlessly, wondering if he should have spoken at all!
But Cat seemed eager to show off her skills, saying generously, "No need, I'm afraid he'll blow up the kitchen too. Ah Jin, wait for me."
Cat was quick to act; she went to get some ingredients and went to the kitchen on the second floor.
After laying out the ingredients, the cat sent a message to Chen Doudou, asking her to provide a few recipes.
Chen Doudou replied very quickly, offering three vegetarian dishes, three meat dishes, and a recipe for fish soup.
"There are no fish on the boat..." the cat thought.
But it's in the sea.
