Chapter 646
It is mentioned that Kozuki Momonosuke, who is very impressive in the sky, is just a poor little brat in the real timeline. He has no ability to resist the reality.
He and Kin'emon are still in Punk Hazard. They can only sleep in the snow cave every day and stay with ice and snow for a long time.
The food they eat is the fish that Kin'emon catches by jumping into the sea. There is only fish every day, no vegetables, no fruits, and no delicious cakes.
When thirsty, they can only lick a mouthful of snow. There is no clean drinking water, and they can only use snow to quench their thirst. This hard life makes the spoiled Kozuki Momonosuke more and more unbearable.
Even if the little brat eats the most fish every day and does not have to brave the wind and snow to find dry firewood and food every day, he is more and more dissatisfied with his father's loyal retainers.
Kozuki Momonosuke complains to Kin'emon every day, why he doesn't find a boat to take him away, and how long he will stay in this ghost place of Punk Hazard.
This place has been baptized by the navy. After all the traitors and scientists were captured, the remaining navy began a large-scale search of the island. They were looking for someone on the island.
Today, Kozuki Momonosuke was awakened by the cold in the snow cave. Although the surrounding temperature has been kept around zero degrees, once the fire is completely extinguished, there is not enough heat supply. It is really a bit too challenging for a child to live in such difficult conditions.
"Kinemon, are you not here?"
After calling the name of the retainer a few times, Momonosuke dragged his thick cotton clothes and got up from the big bed covered with hay.
In the giant snow cave dug by Kin'emon, he did not find his figure. Momonosuke touched his shriveled belly, and the hunger in his stomach made him unbearable.
"When can I have a big meal? I have to vomit eating fish every day."
Just when Momonosuke was complaining, a fragrance came from outside the cave. It was a stew of vegetables and meat.
This immediately aroused the greed in the little boy's stomach. Kin'emon had clearly told him that Momonosuke could not go out alone when the retainers were not around. Doing so was no different from committing suicide.
But the hunger in his stomach was like a hungry ghost, drilling into the boy's head and gnawing at his reason. He ignored Kin'emon's instructions and followed the smell to get closer to the outside of the cave.
There was a thick layer of snow outside the cave, which was a means of hiding the door. Momonosuke stretched out his little hand and kept digging in the snow, opening a small hole in his vision to observe the outside world.
After Punk Hazard fell at night, it was surrounded by a vast expanse of white. If you walk around again, you may get lost.
A team of navy patrolling here set up a tent in the face of this situation, took out a cooking pot and set up a fire, poured various dishes and meat into the pot, and then added simple seasonings, and started a fire to stew a pot.
Kozuki Momonosuke was attracted by the smell. The five navy officers didn't notice that they were secretly watching. They all held the tableware in their hands, waiting for the captain to distribute the food in the pot. Filling their stomachs was the only important thing tonight.
"Captain, the aroma has come out. It should be cooked and ready to eat."
"Everyone has been patrolling for a day. We are so hungry that we have no strength in our bodies."
The four recruits sat around the fire, constantly sniffing the aroma with their noses and swallowing saliva. They were really hungry. Now they wanted to eat a hot bite and then go into the tent for a good sleep.
Feeling that the fire was almost ready, the veteran captain took a spoon and took a sip of soup from the pot. After tasting it, he felt that there was no problem. "A bunch of gluttons who only know how to eat dry food, come and take as much as you can eat, and don't waste any food."
After the veteran captain served himself a large bowl, the four recruits couldn't wait to scramble for the spoon. The first one to grab it scooped out the dry food from his bowl. Only dry food can satisfy hunger.
It was the last person's turn. There wasn't much dry food left in the pot, but eating hard black bread with hot soup, the cold tonight could be easily endured.
This patrol team from the Navy Headquarters had stayed in Punk Hazard for a long time. Almost every place was investigated, but they still didn't find the person the Navy's top brass was looking for.
"We haven't found the kid from the Kozuki family for so long. Could he have left long ago?"
"Only those of us with no background can do this hard job."
While eating the food provided by the Navy, he kept complaining. For new recruits, being sent to a bitter and cold place is not as good as being sent to the battlefield to fight hard, or there is a chance to get promoted and make a fortune.
After Caesar Kulang, the crazy scientist, was taken away by the Navy, Punk Hazard was no longer worth garrisoning.
The captain drank the last bowl of soup and licked the soup in the bowl clean, "Bear with it for a while.Well, after searching this area for a few days, our mission will be completed, and the Navy Headquarters will send a ship to pick us up."
It is not known whether the captain's words are true or false, but it is still useful in improving the morale of the army. Everyone turned the topic to the Navy.
The grassroots of the Navy are all fantasizing that one day a female marshal will take office, and they hope that Altria can implement the treatment in place. It is not uncommon for the Navy to drink the blood of soldiers and eat empty salaries.
The farther away from the Navy Headquarters, the more serious the problem of corruption. The grassroots navy may even become the slaves of the Navy Chief, whose personal freedom is controlled and they are used like slaves every day.
This inhuman treatment has led to a large number of deserters in the grassroots navy. Many bases are nominally full, but in fact, the number of soldiers is less than 50%. Most of the Navy Chiefs are eating empty salaries, not fulfilling their justice, and are more interested in getting promoted, making money and enjoying life.
He severely criticized the dark side of the Navy, and after a full meal, he After that, it was time for rest. For the safety of their own team, everyone in the team had to take turns to stand guard.
After arranging the timetable for standing guard, only one recruit was left outside the tent, and the rest of the navy entered the tent. Not long after, there was a deafening snoring sound. After walking for a day, everyone was tired and fell asleep almost as soon as they closed their eyes.
Infected by this atmosphere, the navy beside the fire yawned, feeling the warmth transmitted by the flames. He felt his eyelids getting heavier and heavier, and sleepiness gradually surged into his mind, "I'll sleep for a while... I'll sleep..."
The navy on guard actually fell asleep while sitting. Hearing his snoring, Kozuki Momonosuke in the snow cave finally couldn't bear it and stretched his body out little by little.
After leaving the secret snow cave, he closed his mouth tightly and dared not make a sound, crawling on the ground towards the navy's tent.
Momonosuke wanted to steal some of the navy's military rations to fill his hunger. He was so hungry that he couldn't wait for Kin'emon to come back
