Chapter 195: The Grudge Between Man and Bird
Josh had no idea what Oswin was thinking.
Anyway, she had a good sleep and woke up feeling refreshed.
"Good morning, Oswin."
"Good morning, Josh."
The faint sunlight fell on Josh's face, and the whole person looked like he was covered with a blanket, furry and very cute.
Oswin was startled by his sudden strange thought.
Damn it, things are getting weirder and weirder. I should find something to do.
"Josh, where is the production line you told me about last night? Can you take me to visit it?" Oswin decided to get busy now.
"Now?" Qiao Xi was a little surprised. "Let's drink some fruit tea and have breakfast first."
Josh took out a dry baguette from the cupboard and opened a can of baked beans in tomato sauce to make a quick breakfast.
"I'm sorry, I was too impatient." Oswin touched his nose, feeling a little annoyed.
"Please sit down and have breakfast." Josh felt a little strange seeing him standing still.
"Okay, thank you." He sat down slowly, stiffly like a wooden man, and his discomfort was visibly evident.
Taking the cut bread, Oswin imitated Josh's way of eating and also wrapped it in the thick red sauce.
Sour, good, wait!
"Is this a can of baked beans in tomato sauce?" He said in surprise, his eyes widened.
"Huh? Oswin, do you know this can too? It's produced by Weiguang!" Josh smiled slyly, full of pride.
Produced by Weiguang, Oswin was stunned, and then he was surprised. He didn’t expect it, really didn’t expect it.
"I heard about this can before I left the secret realm. In the Sunshade Secret Realm, this thing is more precious than gold and has effectively reduced many casualties."
"The soldiers inside are very grateful that someone developed such cans. Josh is amazing." Oswin spoke very sincerely.
"Ah, is it that exaggerated? There should be a lot of food with similar properties." Qiao Xi thought he was joking.
"No, in secret realms, especially vast secret realms, food with special properties is very precious. Food with similar properties is either very scarce or not very effective. There is nothing more convenient, large in quantity, and effective than baked beans in tomato sauce. The canned food shipped to the front line can basically provide soldiers on missions with a full meal before the battle. It can be said to be good value for money.
The supply of the front-line expeditionary corps is very dependent on logistics. If the logistics are unfavorable, the attribute food delivered will be insufficient, or even soldiers will die from attribute energy exhaustion. Not to mention the low visibility in the Sun-blocking Secret Realm, the casualty rate is very exaggerated, to the point of being heartbreaking. ”
As Oswin spoke, he was obviously immersed in the past and his emotions were a little out of control.
Josh was stunned. She just said it casually. Could it be that Oswin was suffering from post-war syndrome?
"As long as it's useful, the farm will plant more bitter chestnut beans next year to expand production." Qiao Xi found a topic to continue talking.
"That's even better. I thank you on behalf of those soldiers." Oswin forced his mouth open, but he actually bowed to Josh.
At the same time, he realized that something was wrong with him and adjusted his mood. You have already left the secret realm and the battlefield.
"Click"
"Click"
Josh was about to say something when he heard a few crisp clicking sounds, something.
She turned her head and saw, oh my god, she forgot about this big egg. Does it look like it is pecking at the shell inside?
Could it be that it’s about to hatch?
"What is this?" Oswin was also interrupted by the strange sound. He looked up and it seemed familiar. He felt as if he had seen something similar before.
Josh pulled away the blanket that was wrapped around it. "This is a pink-feathered pelican, a gift from a friend. It looks like it's about to hatch. Oswin, do you know anything about this kind of magical beast? Come and help me take a look."
The pink-feathered pelican, Oswin thought of the sneaky bird in his memory, full of insidiousness and cunningness.
It can't be such a coincidence. Although pink-feathered pelicans are rare, this one might be from outside the area.
Oswin went forward with trepidation and looked. Everything in front of him went dark. There was a small scratch on the pink dome. At first glance, one might have thought it was caused by an accidental touch.
But anyone who knows the bad bird will know at a glance that this is its unique mark. No matter if it is a person, a weapon or an egg, as long as it takes a fancy to it, there will be this scar.
How horrible! He didn't even spare his own eggs, Oswin thought.
No, wait, shouldn’t the key question be why its eggs appear here? Didn't it follow them out of the legion and seek another way out?
Have they fallen to the point where they have to sell their children on the black market to survive?
To be honest, Oswin did not feel sad. On the contrary, he even felt a little gloating.
This sudden joy even made him forget the sadness he had just felt.
If he had to say the only thing he was thankful for after leaving the battlefield and the legion, it was that he would never see the bird again. Although it left before him, it would still appear somewhere from time to time.
Someone must have brought it back to do some shameful things. Every time that happened, he would always be hit hard by the hateful bird.
But its eggs appeared here, so could we meet again?
Oswin suddenly felt a little short of breath.
Qiao Xi studied it for a while and found out that there was no sound. He opened the communicator and sent a message to Askan to ask if there would be any impact.
"Josh, do you know Askhan?" Oswin asked for some unknown reason.
"Yes, I know him. He gave it to me. How do you know each other?" This world is really small. I met an acquaintance of an acquaintance. Josh asked with a smile.
"Sure enough." Oswin closed his eyes. It was over. He would have to see that broken bird sooner or later.
"Oswin, what's wrong with you? Do you know the Pink-feathered Pelican?" Josh keenly noticed that the reason why Oswin's emotions fluctuated so much was because of the discovery of this egg.
"Of course, I know its mother very well." The last word fell heavily, and Oswin looked as if he had lost all hope in life.
"Then do you know what happened to it?" Josh asked interestedly.
"I don't know, but don't worry. These evil birds will not get hurt no matter who gets hurt. Don't worry." Oswin hated the whole family.
"Okay." Seeing that it was obviously prejudiced against Dadan, Josh didn't want to continue asking him. Obviously, there must be an unpleasant past between them.
The egg stopped making noises, so Josh covered it with the blanket again and prepared to take Oswin to visit the warehouse production line.
“This is it.”
Josh took him to the warehouse and showed him the small assembly line workshop which looked somewhat ordinary without any employees.
"Is it with these that so many cans are processed?" Oswin was a little shocked. The countless empty cans stacked next to him proved that Josh was not lying.
