Chapter 558 - Otters and Jaguars



Although it's been raining, the temperature here isn't exactly cool.

Perhaps because he had lost his memory, Jun Qi was quite curious about some of Xu Qiaoqiao's behaviors. Of course, Xu Qiaoqiao was also very curious about him. Why did he have memories in the previous world but not in this one?

The first person that came to mind was the inexplicable system.

The system keeps messing things up, and Xu Qiaoqiao doesn't know what it's hiding. She feels helpless and can't change anything. Whether it's cowardice or self-consolation, she has no idea how the system came to be.

While Jun Qi was on patrol outside, Xu Qiaoqiao lay on his back, always lost in thought, thinking about the past, about the system, and then starting to talk to herself.

So after this world ends, should we ask the system again?

Should I take it or not?

I'm a bit conflicted...

Xu Qiaoqiao scratched her head in distress, because even if she asked, she wasn't sure if the system would give her an answer.

Sigh, thinking about other people's systems and then thinking about hers, the contrast is just too great. It does nothing, says nothing, and of course, its host is also a bit useless.

"Chirp?"

Hearing Xu Qiaoqiao's faint cries and the little paws drawing circles on his back, Jun Qi couldn't help but look back and let out a cry, his green eyes filled with curiosity.

—Little guy, what are you talking about?

Xu Qiaoqiao blinked a few times, immediately pulling herself out of her thoughts. She raised her head, looked at those big green eyes, tilted her head, and a few smiles flashed in her eyes.

"Waaaaah."

—JunJun, I'm thinking about you...

Jun Qi tilted his head, feeling several big question marks appear above his head. He didn't understand what the little guy was saying.

But...

Jun Qi leaned in and licked Xu Qiaoqiao's cheek. About a month later, the little one looked to have grown quite a bit, and her skin was still very smooth because she would play in the water for a few minutes every day, which counted as taking a bath.

However, the system knew nothing about Jun Qi's affairs, which drove Xu Qiaoqiao crazy. The only thing that comforted her was that at least Jun Jun was still by her side in every world.

As long as this thing exists, she is willing to go through countless cycles of small worlds together. Even if Junjun has no memory, she doesn't care. In any case, she is sure that Junjun will treat her differently.

Thinking about this, Xu Qiaoqiao happily let out a few "oohs".

Jun Qi kissed Xu Qiaoqiao a few times, then continued his inspection work. The Amazon rainforest is already vast, and the territory Jun Qi has claimed this time is truly enormous. Moreover, he will frequently expand outwards, claiming any unclaimed territory he can.

And it was done little by little, in circles.

For example, move it outward by one centimeter today, and by another one centimeter tomorrow, and so on.

Xu Qiaoqiao looked up at the back of the big cat's head and smiled helplessly to herself. So, does having more territory mean you're more powerful?

She didn't understand this kind of thing, and even if she asked, the other person wouldn't understand, so she could only guess.

...

In mid-to-late June, the river level finally stopped rising as much as before.

Today is a rare sunny day. It rained all night, but the rain gradually subsided in the early morning, and then the sun slowly peeked out from behind the clouds.

It was a rare sunny day, but because the leaves overhead were so thick, most of the sunlight was blocked out, with only a few weak rays shining in.

In the afternoon, Jun Qi had a rare moment of leisure. The two of them stayed at the campsite. This morning, Xu Qiaoqiao had found a human backpack floating downstream by chance, so Jun Qi picked it up.

This piqued Xu Qiaoqiao's curiosity. After accompanying Jun Qi on a tour of his territory, big and small, she finally had time to deal with the backpack. It looked like the kind of backpack an outdoor explorer would wear; it was very sturdy.

As Xu Qiaoqiao zipped up her jacket, she was inwardly grumbling, wondering which unlucky guy had left it behind, and whether that unlucky guy was even still alive.

If she doesn't pick up this backpack, it will probably stay submerged in water forever.

She was having Junjun do a good deed, Xu Qiaoqiao comforted herself. When she dragged the backpack over just now, she felt it was a bit heavy, and there must be a lot of things inside.

Jun Qi looked at Xu Qiaoqiao's expression, which changed from smiling to expectant to worried. What was wrong with her? Did this human being make the little one like it so much?

He blinked a few times and made some muffled noises, indicating that he didn't quite understand Qiaoqiao's current state.

She picked it up, so it was hers now. Xu Qiaoqiao opened the backpack, looked at the equipment inside, and felt a little disappointed. Ah, she thought it would be something interesting or fun.

Xu Qiaoqiao took out a compass, a rope, an empty mineral water bottle, some trash, and a box of soaked matches from her bag. She sniffed them, but they were no longer of any use. The only thing with any weight was the small shovel.

Um?

Is that all?

Is that all?

Xu Qiaoqiao scratched the bag a few times without causing any damage. Then she held the bag to Jun Qi's mouth, gesturing for him to bite it. Jun Qi tilted his head, his eyes seeming to say: Are you sure?
