BXBX NOVEL Chapter 95 95 Scout
"The cannibals?"
After hearing Natalie's words, Allen stood up quickly!
"What's going on now?"
He asked Natalie while walking.
"I don't know. Anna asked me to tell you that Emily has discovered the movements of the cannibals. I told you about it as soon as she told me! I haven't checked the situation on the watchtower yet!"
Natalie quickly shared the information she knew with Allen.
Allen nodded to show he had heard it.
"Have they all come back?"
What he cared about was that if the savages really sneaked over when he was sleeping, or if Anna and Emily didn't notice the movements of the cannibals, Jessica and Taylor, who were cutting trees outside, would be in danger.
"They were all back. Don't worry. Jessica came back a long time ago and said she was hungry."
"Humph, maybe they just cut one tree. It's a waste of time!"
Allen guessed Jessica's plan at once and felt relieved.
Natalie also knew that what Jessica had done was wrong, but at this time, she did not have the mood to say anything. The cannibals were more important in her heart.
"How about the wooden arrow? How many have you made?"
Allen asked another important question.
"There are already more than 100 of them."
Natalie answered in a very low voice this time as if she was shy. Hearing this number, Allen stopped and looked at Natalie in disbelief.
"What did you just say? Are you sure you didn't say anything wrong?"
Allen couldn't believe his ears. Although it wasn't difficult to make wooden arrows, it was easy and convenient to do it with Allen's tools.
However, in Allen's expectation, even if the girls like Natalie and Emily could accept the job at the beginning, they couldn't stand the boredom of the job!
That was why Allen was so surprised when he heard that Natalie had made more than 100 wooden arrows.
"I didn't say anything wrong! It's more than 100!"
Natalie answered in a louder voice this time. Perhaps she felt that Allen had misunderstood her, so she wanted to prove herself.
"This is really..."
Seeing the serious look on Natalie's face, Allen immediately became happy. If there were so many wooden arrows, he would be more confident in dealing with those cannibals with the girls!
Allen even thought that if Natalie could make so many arrows every day in the future, perhaps one day he would be able to put a wooden box on every tree on the island and fill it with wooden arrows.
"Wait, are these wooden arrows all made by you alone?"
But when Allen was happy, he thought of another question.
"Yeah, am I awesome?"
Natalie felt proud, but Allen's reaction was beyond Natalie's expectations. Not only did he not praise Natalie, but he also walked to Natalie and grabbed her hands.
Natalie didn't want Allen to see her hands at first. She tried to avoid Allen.
However, Allen had great strength. She couldn't stop Allen. Finally, Allen pulled her hand over.
"Why, why are you doing this?"
Allen saw small wounds on Natalie's hand. After a whole day's work, her flawless palm had become scarred.
Allen felt both sad and frustrated.
"It's all my fault. I made it too late last night."
Allen put Natalie's hand on his face, which made Allen feel guiltier about Natalie.
In the beginning, Allen asked Natalie to follow him to do the task of polishing wooden arrows to give Natalie a relaxed environment, so that Natalie did not have to do much work.
He didn't expect that Natalie was not only the one who worked the most, but also the one who suffered the most.
Allen felt so guilty about Natalie.
At the same time, he looked at Natalie with new eyes.
In Allen's impression, Natalie had always been a gentlewoman, second only to Anna.
But today, Allen found that he was wrong. After so many days of training, Natalie had slowly become a good woman with a firm mind!
Allen was relieved.
Another advantage that he appreciated very much was that although Natalie had slept with him for many nights, even now she was with Allen, Natalie would still blush as much now as ever!
Allen's reaction made Natalie blush like a ripe apple.
"Ah, this, this is what I should do!"
Natalie pulled her hand back shyly and rolled her eyes at Allen.
"Well, it's not the time to talk about it now. Emily might be waiting for us in the watchtower. Hurry up!"
Allen didn't know why Natalie became lovelier when she was urged. He thought that if it weren't for the cannibals, Allen would have taken Natalie back to his hut again!
How could he stay here without any time and place to be happy!
"No, I should have done it!"
Allen murmured to himself. Then he held Natalie's hand and walked towards the watchtower.
Allen didn't say anything on the way, but Natalie felt safer than she have ever felt before.
It seemed that it was OK even if she was going to face the cannibals with Allen! As long as Allen was by her side, even death was worth it!
Allen took Natalie to the watchtower. They didn't have time to greet Emily and Anna, nor to see the sunset.
His attention was focused on the dying smoke in the north, and the startled birds.
"Sure enough, something happened. But why? It's night now! How dare these cannibals?"
