The next morning, when the first emperor penguin woke up from his sleep, he began to quack loudly, trying to wake up his companions.
Although it was the midnight sun, time could still be discerned, though not very accurately. A gentle breeze dispersed the fog, and the snow-covered ground looked somewhat desolate.
The next day, without Xu Qiaoqiao and Jun Qi saying anything, everyone noticed the ropes tied to Oka's body. One by one, they walked up to him, very interested, since they had never seen such a thing before.
"Gah gah gah?" Oka, what is this?
An emperor penguin pointed to the rope tied to his body and asked a question curiously. Clearly, they knew each other and were familiar with each other.
Oka only woke up at this point. He drooped his head, rubbed his eyes, and yawned widely to clear his head. Only then did he notice that there were several emperor penguins standing in front of him.
Everyone's eyes were on the rope tied around her body. Because she was worried about it being difficult to move around and it was a bit hard to tie, Xu Qiaoqiao simply tied it loosely and made a knot.
However, once Oka completely overcomes this bad habit, he can take this thing off, and it's easy to do so. But for the silly emperor penguin, it's still a bit of a hassle.
The emperor penguin, who had just asked the question, patiently asked again when he saw Oka's confused look. This time, Oka understood. He looked down at the ropes binding him, blinked a few times, and realized what was going on.
"Giggle!" This is from Sister Qiaoqiao!
Oka exclaimed happily, his eyes crinkling with laughter. With his chubby figure, he looked quite festive.
He wasn't exactly a low-key guy to begin with. Yesterday, when Xu Qiaoqiao tied him up with this rope, he got a little cocky and even went to show off to Jacques. Unfortunately, the other party just gave him a big pat on the back and didn't really pay any attention to what he said.
So when he saw so many emperor penguins looking at the rope on his body, Oka's extinguished desire to show off was rekindled, and he happily told everyone about it.
Sure enough, after hearing Oka's embellished and edited account, everyone exclaimed in surprise. They had never seen a rope before, especially a yellow one, exactly the same color as the feathers under their parents' necks.
"Giggle giggle." Oh, it was Sister Qiao Qiao who gave it to me. It's so pretty, I want one too.
"Gagaga~ Oh~" Oka, are you serious? Did you get this rope from eating dead fish?
"Gah~" Is this called a rope?
"Gah gah, gah gah gah gah." This thing is so long and thin, it looks really strange. But won't it affect your fishing if it's all wrapped around like that?
After he finished speaking, an emperor penguin next to him immediately replied to him.
"Giggle." Oka only eats dead fish, so it doesn't really have any impact.
Oka: ...
I will never eat dead fish again.
His words piqued everyone's curiosity again. What happened? This guy had always been lazy. He had to swim underwater to catch fish, but sometimes the fish were very agile, and he failed once, so he became too lazy to bother catching them.
After that, we just ate the dead fish.
With such a goose in the group, it's hard for anyone not to notice it, but there are still some geese that haven't been noticed, such as Sister Qiao and the leader.
At this moment, everyone remembered what Sister Qiaoqiao said before going to bed yesterday. It seemed to be about the dangers of eating dead fish. None of the geese remembered the details. Also, Boss Junqi's actions seemed to be related to eating dead fish.
"Gaga?" What does that mean? Oka, you really won't eat dead fish anymore?
"Giggle giggle giggle." Just because Sister Qiao said it's bad to eat dead fish?
"Huh?" Or did the boss beat you up?
This reason was more plausible than what they had said, and instantly everyone stopped chattering and turned to look at Oka.
Tell me, tell me, tell me quickly! Hurry up and reveal the answer, otherwise we'll be guessing here forever!
Under the intense gazes of everyone, Oka nervously swallowed and took a few steps back. These gazes were terrifying; their eyes seemed to be glowing.
"Gah." The boss didn't hit me.
"Huh?" Really?
Oka's face had turned serious. He nodded. Of course, how could the boss, such a gentle emperor penguin, possibly beat us up? Be careful the boss doesn't hear us.
This statement was quite intimidating, but some emperor penguins were still unwilling to give up and wanted to ask again. However, Oka kept his mouth shut, or rather, he really didn't know anything. Yesterday, he was just taken there by Xu Qiaoqiao and tied up with ropes.
Soon, everyone dispersed, finding that Oka couldn't say anything more, and they were getting a little bored.
Oka breathed a sigh of relief; those annoying guys were finally gone.
Xu Qiaoqiao and Jun Qi were resting next to a small pile of ice. Jun Qi, like everyone else, slept standing up so that if an accident happened, he could react quickly and take appropriate action.
Xu Qiaoqiao, just like when she was a child, slept half-lying down, her back against Jun Qi's back. Sometimes, she would even hug his leg and sleep soundly.
After Jun Qi and Xu Qiaoqiao woke up, they said a few words to everyone as usual. This was a speech that had to be given every day. In Li Zi's words, it was to boost everyone's morale and set daily goals for everyone.
However, Jun Qi cut down a lot of them, and later it became some simple words like "be careful with your life" and "don't do stupid things".
