The cave has a slight slope, which can prevent water from flowing back into it. There is no light and it is pitch black with no end in sight, but it is indeed the best place for them to live at the moment. “We found the cave. Su Xin quickly returned, grabbed Helena's feet and dragged her there, until they both entered the cave and avoided the heavy rain, and then they both breathed a sigh of relief. The cave was very dark. Su Xin looked through the cat's eye and found that the space in the cave was not as big as she had imagined. It was probably less than ten square meters. The marks on the cave wall were smooth, probably dug out by something. There was a small bundle of firewood piled in the cave, but everything was covered with a thick layer of ash. The air around seemed to be filled with dust, making people feel stuffy. It seemed that no one had returned here for a long time. The two were feeling cold and uncomfortable, so they decided to light a fire to keep warm first, and preferably dry their clothes at the same time, and then think about cleaning. Making fire is a difficult thing. Theoretically, everyone can [drill two sticks to make fire], but it is quite difficult to actually do it. Although Su Xin was very strong, she didn't want to waste time on an area she was not good at, so she simply took out the torpedo and started tinkering with it. [Helena] lay there unable to move, watching the thick torpedo making soft noises next to her head. She felt very scared, fearing that it would explode suddenly.
Fortunately, the young commander had seen the entire process of Yubari making this "enhanced torpedo", so the disassembly went smoothly. The explosives obtained from it were used to start a fire, and it was successful at once. After her body warmed up, Su Xin's stomach started growling again. "Goooo..." Su Xin quickly put her hands over her stomach, her face flushed in the light of the fire. Helena gave her a warning look and couldn't help laughing. "...What are you laughing at? Isn't it normal to be hungry?" "Well, yes, but in a place like this, you can probably only chew on tree bark." The little conductor paused and asked her, "Are there no fish in the sea?" [Helena] thought about it and nodded, "Maybe, but I'm not sure what it would look like if it was contaminated, and whether it can be eaten." Su Xin sighed, endured the hunger and added wood to the fire, secretly hoping that it would not rain tomorrow so that she could go out to look for food. As if there was nothing to say, both of them fell silent, listening to the crackling sound of the burning wood, gradually becoming distracted, until Su Xin heard some strange noises. "...?" The little commander was stunned, frowned, and turned to look at the cave entrance, where there was a little animal that was soaked all over, standing in the rain and looking at her. It's a fox. His chestnut brown hair stuck to his body, making him look very thin, and his eyes were large, round, and dark in color, like two plump grapes. It moved its front paws and took a step into the warm cave, testing it softly. "...Hmm?" Su Xin really wanted to let it in. After all, having a friend who was nice to touch wasn't a bad thing. But she didn't dare to move, for fear of scaring the little fox away. So the little commander pursed his lips, retracted his gaze and lowered his eyes, pretending not to see it. After a while, the little fox bravely moved closer to the fire. As the distance got closer, Commander Su Xiao felt happier, until the little fox was within reach. She then reached out tentatively and touched its forehead very slowly.
"Woo~" Su Xin breathed a sigh of relief and gently stroked the fur on the little fox's head with two fingers. [Helena] smiled upon seeing this, "Now we have food." The little fox, who was shaking off the water stains by shaking off his fur awkwardly, suddenly froze, and all the soft fur on his body stood up. “Woo! Chapter 492 It’s a little girl! The little fox is very smart and seems to understand human nature. After hearing Helena's joking words, it shrank consciously at Su Xin's feet, allowing the little commander to stroke its fur without even looking at Helena. He knew to keep a distance from the fire to avoid burning his hair, and when the fire died down, he knew to pull out some dry firewood so that the little commander could easily throw it into the fire. This made Su Xin, who was already a fur lover, like this new little member even more, and she never stopped stroking its fur. "Well, where are you from?" Su Xin seemed to be talking to a baby. Even though she knew she wouldn't get a response, she still enjoyed it and kept talking with a smile on her face. "How old is it? It's quite small, maybe only two or three months old." "Your fur is so beautiful and feels so smooth. I like it, ok?" "Your eyes are very pretty. I wonder if they are round because you are still young." "The tail is so soft too. It becomes so fluffy after drying. Can I touch it?" The little fox showed no signs of resistance. He was given a tail when he asked for it, and paw pads when he asked for it. He even raised his little head with a cute look of "it's true" under the constant praise. [Helena] looked at Su Xin with a motherly smile on her face and couldn't bear to look at her. "Have you let yourself go since your facial paralysis was cured? Can you please control yourself...your mouth is almost stretched to your ears!" Su Xin came back to her senses in an instant, coughed lightly, and her expression became more restrained. "Well... I just like small animals..." "I think you should be a little more careful." Helena glanced at the little fox. "There's not even a blade of grass growing in this place, so how can there be a fox with shiny fur?" The young commander thought so too. Especially for a fox that was so human-like, it must have been carefully raised and trained by someone. It really shouldn't be here. Just as she withdrew her hand and wanted to think deeply, the soft and cute little fox seemed reluctant to let go, and rubbed its head against the little commander's palm while whimpering. "...Hmm?" The smooth hair brushed against her palm, bringing a light touch, soft and itchy, which softened her heart. "Wow~ So cute! Can I play with you? Do you like your chin being tickled? It feels so good, right?" "Well - so good, so good~" [Helena] glanced at the silly Su Xin and said, "You're playing the same trick as King Zhou of Shang, right? It won't turn into anything messy."
Su Xin was stunned for a moment, then became interested. "Hai... Um, [Nana], haven't you been to many, many worlds?" "Well, what's wrong?" "Is there any world where creatures like demons and fairies exist?" [Helena] opened her mouth, her expression indescribable, and she looked at Su Xin as if she were some strange creature. "What do you want to do?" "No, I just suddenly remembered it, so I asked." "No." Helena replied unhappily, "There are definitely no monsters or anything like that, but there are a lot of people who, like you, fantasize about cats and foxes turning into humans." Su Xin is not to blame for this. She simply thought the little fox was cute, and when she heard about King Zhou of Shang, she had some associations. She really had no other intention. But after careful consideration, the young commander's train of thought had gone astray again. “[Nana].” "...What happened?" "I thought about it and realized that if the little fox is really a fairy and cultivates into a human form... wouldn't it become Sister Tiancheng and the others?" "Look, she has ears and a tail, a common female image in stories, and she has a good figure too..." When the little fox heard this, its tail almost flew up to the sky, but after being stroked by Su Xin's hand, it shyly softened again. [Helena] really doesn't want to continue talking about this topic, otherwise she is afraid that the discussion will develop into "Among the mixed-race offspring, which gene is dominant, human or demon?" Su Xin saw Helena leaning against the wall and closing her eyes to rest. She didn't want to ask any more questions and could only stroke the little fox quietly. It didn't seem to take long for her and the little fox to get to know each other from the time they met. At this moment, the little fox had changed from "being wary from a distance" to "climbing into her arms and snuggling." Su Xiaozhi lowered his head and watched it put its front paws on his thighs, then kicked off with its hind legs and jumped onto his crossed legs. The little fox seemed to be quite curious about it. It stepped on her left and rubbed her right, making Su Xin feel a little itchy, but not uncomfortable. She simply let it move around in her arms. After it walked a few circles on the little conductor's legs, it finally settled down, leaned against Su Xin's lower abdomen, and curled up, becoming a warm ball. "So cute..." Su Xin murmured. She had always wanted to have a furry pet. She liked cats, dogs and hamsters very much. However, due to the inequality in lifespans, she eventually gave up the idea. Seeing the little fox in his arms full of satisfaction and dependence, Su Xiaozhi's heart softened, and he stroked its fur more gently, as if he was afraid of disturbing its rest. Gradually, under the warmth of the fire, Su Xin also felt sleepy. Her head nods and she finally falls asleep leaning against the wall. The little fox that was originally curled up on her legs quietly opened its eyes at this moment, raised its head slightly to make sure that Su Xin was asleep, and then quickly stretched its head into her arms. By rubbing in a coquettish manner, the little fox accurately put its mouth into Su Xin's coat pocket, opened it slightly, and used its tongue to push the red rope that it had been holding in its mouth for a long time into it. After doing all this, it yawned as if relieved, snuggled back into the warm embrace, and fell into a light sleep. After a long period of rain and trekking, the two people and the fox were very tired and were sleeping soundly until they were awakened by the thunder outside.
"Um, what time is it?" Su Xin was half asleep, and glanced at the phone she brought from her world, "...Oh, it's eight o'clock, time to have breakfast..." As soon as she finished speaking, her stomach started to growl again, which surprised the little fox and he rubbed his head against it for a long time. Su Xiaozhi was so itchy that he twisted his body twice but failed to stop it. As a last resort, he pinched the back of the fox's neck with his right hand and lifted it up. "Stop it, I'm ticklish." "Woo~" "So good." Su Xin smiled, her eyes accidentally glimpsed the softer fur on the little fox's belly, and suddenly thought of a question. She placed the little fox carefully on her legs, with its limbs spread out. "Be good and lie still, okay?" "Woo?" Su Xin stretched out her free-moving right hand and gently and accurately touched the little fox's legs upwards. She carefully touched the bulge on her abdomen as her body suddenly stiffened. "Oh, it's a little girl!" Chapter 493 Let It Go The second day here, the rain stopped and it was a rare good weather. Su Xin stretched, stood up from the hard ground, and simply combed her hair with her hands that had fine teeth marks on them. "...Morning." [Helena]'s condition seems to be much better, as can be seen from the fact that Little Wrench started to heal the wounds on her body. The problem of energy overflow should have been suppressed. "Yeah, it's been a day. Have you thought about what to do next?" Helena reminded casually with her eyes closed. Su Xin thought for a moment and said, "I think I should brush my teeth first, and then... find something to eat." In fact, her stomach was growling the whole time last night, but then she became so hungry that she didn't feel anything anymore. But this is not a good thing. If she doesn't eat something, it will be a question whether Su Xin can continue to charge the small wrench. [Helena] snorted and laughed, "You should first think about where you are going to get the rabies vaccine." Hearing this, Su Xin subconsciously shrank her head, glanced at the little fox that was a million miles away from her, and dared not say a word. Yesterday she was just in a spur of the moment. Who would not check whether a pet is male or female before raising it? It is normal to touch it, right? It is impossible for her to pull apart its fur with one hand, right? Besides, male foxes also have bulges. She just wanted to confirm it once and for all, so she touched it. Obviously, there is nothing wrong with doing so. "Did you stay angry for so long...?" The young commander looked at the regularly arranged wounds at the base of his right hand, "... and he bit it so hard." "..Forget it, let's find some food to feed it, and it should calm down, right?" Thinking of this, Su Xin said hello, patted the dust off her butt with one hand, and prepared to go outside to see what was going on. The little fox glanced at her and followed her shyly.
To find food, one needs to go to various places. Helena obviously can't keep up, so she has to stay in the cave with the little wrench. They didn't climb very high yesterday, not even to the mountainside, but they found the entrance to a cave for people to rest. Coupled with the dry firewood inside, all signs indicated that there might still be people here. Even if the other party has been gone for a long time, but he is still doing this time-consuming and laborious work of digging holes here, so I guess there will be plenty of food. It was very quiet along the way. The little fox followed Su Xin, not calling out or asking to be held. It was very well behaved, but for some reason, the atmosphere was inexplicably awkward. "...Maybe it's too smart?" Commander Su touched his nose and focused on climbing the mountain.
