Awakening

Fortunately, this was Summer so even if they were soaked in seawater they did not feel too cold. With the help of the life jackets, the boy who clung to the edge of the lifeboats continued to swim forward.

After swimming for nearly two hours, everyone finally swam to the shore.

After coming ashore, strenuous exercise coupled with days of hunger made most of the students to lie prostrated on the beach. Although their bodies were so weary, their hearts were filled with joy.

Although this was Summer, if you wore wet clothes and the wind blew you, it would be very easy for you to catch a cold. If this island was really an uninhabited island, and if they fell ill, they would surely die. Therefore, for humanitarian reason, Lei Yin said loudly: “If you don’t want to die, quickly take off your wet clothes. Anybody who has a lighter immediately looks for some dry twigs and light a fire.” Then he took off his clothes, of course, that included his pants.

Seeing their dead-snake appearance, Lei Yin was too lazy to say anything again. He pulled Amy toward the wooded area on the beach and found some branches in varied size, as well as hay, in the vicinity. He then dug a shallow pit under a leeward area. After that, he stacked up the smallest twigs crisscrossed on that pit, and then took out the lighter, which he fetch from the bridge, and ignited the hay in the middle of the twigs. Not long after that, a small fire lit up.

After telling Amy to add some branches there once in awhile, he returned to the beach.

Seeing those people were still lying there motionless like corpses, his anger flared up. He went to the middle of them and loudly said: “You all listen carefully, this island is likely to be an uninhabited island. If you catch a cold here, there is simply no medicine that could save you.”

“What did you say, you say this is a deserted island?” One of the boys forced himself to stand up.

The others were scared and also stood up.

“Very likely, because so far, I did not see any lights.”

Hearing his words, the other people immediately looked at their surrounding and saw it was indeed dark all around them.

“Is this island really uninhabited? Then what should we do now?” A girl uncontrollably called out.

“Maybe the people on the island have all been asleep, so all the lights were off. There should not be a deserted island.” Someone said in self-consolation.

Toward these talking human, Lei Yin continued to loudly say: “I say again, if you do not want to die, then immediately find some dry twigs to generate fire. And the put your wet clothes off.”

These students finally began to stand up and each one of them went to find some branches.

Lei Yin cursed in his heart, miserable wretch.

After a while, after collecting some dry twigs, people began to huddle in several circles to light a fire. But because most of them have no experience in lighting a fire in the wild, many people asked Lei Yin to light their fire.

Lei Yin felt angry and funny at the same time when he saw some of the students wanted to use thick wood to contain the firewood. But he was too lazy to say anything, in any case, the branches were many, so he let them made a mess for themselves.

At this time, one can see the difference between the young and the old. Although both were hungry for three days, driven by the instinct to survive, the young people have recovered a lot of their energy, while the elderly couple’s spirit seemed to be very poor, seemingly ready to faint at any moment.

At this time, Amy went over to Lei Yin and whispered a few words to him.

After hearing her words, he frowned, shook his head, and then said: “You can’t.”

“Lei, please, they look very pitiful.” The little girl worriedly looked at him.

Watching her pleading eyes, Lei Yin thought for a moment, and finally, helplessly nodded. The little girl immediately embraced him in delight.

Taking the elderly couple deep into the woods, Amy took out a plastic bag from her body and gave it to them. Seeing the inside of the bag filled with two pieces of white bread, the two elderly were stunned.

The nearby Lei Yin explained the source of the bread. Then he somewhat apologetically told them: “Maybe you think I am selfish, but I definitely cannot let Amy go hungry. These last two slices of bread are given to you by Amy herself, I hope you can keep it a secret.” After that, he put the bag into their hands and then dragged the little girl out of the woods.

The elderly couple watched them left.

“Kid, not afraid of starving?”

“Not afraid, because Lei will think of a way.”

“Well, it’s your choice, don’t cry when you feel hungry.”

The little girl innocently smiled.

If they were still on the boat, no matter how determined Amy begged him, Lei Yin would never agree to do so. But since they were already on an island, he had a considerable confidence in finding enough food, even if this island was a deserted uninhabited island.

To survive in the wild, the first thing to do was to prevent yourself from getting sick. In order not to be bitten by virulent mosquitos, Lei Yin entered the woods alone. After a while, he took back some kind of plant leave similar to tobacco leaves. He then crushed those leaves on a stone, after that, he took the resulting juice and spread it on Amy’s bare skin.

“Lei, what is this stuff?” The little girl strangely looked at his action.

“The juices from these plants can prevent mosquito bites. Although the smell is not that good, but you need to tolerate it, okay?”

The little girl gently nodded. $Support the translator by reading this on the translator’s website$

To see her being so obedient like this, Lei Yin dotingly kissed her small face.

After spreading the juice on himself, he took the rest of the leaves to those students. “Crush these leaves and applied the juice on your skin. This can prevent mosquito bites.” He spoke these redundant words at every circle of students. As to whether they used it or not, that was not his problem.

For Lei Yin’s ‘meddlesome action,’ many students were still grateful to him. After all, if not because of him, they may have starved to death on the boat.

However, some of the students resented him. In their thoughts, the reason for why they became like this was because they listened to his call to look out for a land. In the end, it made their boat hit the reef so that they were forced to reach this deserted island. Perhaps in a day or two, if they patiently waited on the boat, someone will come to rescue them, instead of being in a miserable condition like now. In their eyes, the reason for why they fell into this plight was because the guy was simply the god of plague.

Lei Yin completely ignored those who showed that kind of look. After distributing the mosquito repellent plants, he returned to his original position.

After a while, that elderly couple came back. When they saw Lei Yin, they smiled to him. Lei Yin secretly relieved and smiled back at them. In addition to them, no one knew the meaning of the smile.

The next morning, the students proposed to go out to look for whether there were other people on this island. For this proposal, Lei Yin held an opposing view.

“What do you want?” A boy who has kept his resentment for a long time loudly shouted at him.

“Even if you want to go out, you need to first find food and drinking water. In your present physical condition, how far do you think you can go?” Thinking that they shared the same University as him, Lei Yin did not want them to foolishly throw away their lives.

A student walked out to stand at the front. “That is why we need to go out to look for other people. If there are other people on this island, we can be saved. I don’t want to stay here and die. I support Murai’s proposition.”

Lei Yin indifferently shrugged his shoulders, “Do as you like, in any case, I already told you.”

“Let’s go.” That lead students stared at him and then walked toward the woods.

Influenced by the herd mentality, after hesitating, the other students started to follow him. After these people left, Lei Yin said to the only boy left: “Why don’t you go with them?” The boy in front of him was the student who supported his self-help proposal on the boat.

The boy looked at him and said: “I think what you said is correct.”

Lei Yin smiled, “There is no absolutely right decision in this world, perhaps they will really find other people. Forget it, don’t mention this. What is your name?”

“My name is Akira Hiroshi, first year Law Department student in Teikyo University.” The boy with slightly pale face introduced himself.

“My name is Gennai Masashi. Good, we have been introduced. Now let’s go find food and water.”

“But where do we find food and fresh water?” Akira Hiroshi revealed an awkward expression.

Lei Yin laughed, “Looks like you rarely play on the beach. Relative to the food, I’m more worried about the fresh water.”
