Chapter 102: Apocalypse, I Am Not the Holy Mother 8
Lin Shuangshuang circled the supermarket several times but couldn’t find anything to start a fire for cooking. However, she did spot dozens of instant self-heating hot pots. Since lighting a fire wasn’t an option, she hoped the self-heating hot pot would be hot enough.
After washing half of the mantis eggs with mineral water, she threw the vegetables from the self-heating hot pot aside, filled it with mantis eggs, added mineral water, placed it on the heat pack, and covered it. Lin Shuangshuang opened eight self-heating hot pots in a row just to cook all the mantis eggs.
The heat pack of this self-heating hot pot was surprisingly hotter than Lin Shuangshuang expected. It even boiled the mineral water, making a continuous bubbling sound, and as the water boiled, the mantis eggs emitted a tempting aroma.
The aroma roused Doumi, who had been napping at Lin Shuangshuang’s feet. The cat’s tail twitched as it meowed coquettishly at Lin Shuangshuang, begging for food.
In the past, boiled insect eggs and roasted insect meat were always Doumi’s favorites. There wasn’t much choice back then, as Lin Shuangshuang didn’t have the time to get Doumi its favorite fish. Thinking about it, she felt she owed Doumi a lot.
The boiled insect eggs had a faint, fresh fragrance and tasted delicious. Not only did Lin Shuangshuang and Doumi enjoy a feast, but even Mi Lu, who had initially been hesitant about eating mantis eggs, after forcing herself to eat one, forgot her reservations and devoured them!
After eating, Lin Shuangshuang cooked the remaining mantis eggs to save time for the next meal. Satisfied and full, Doumi rubbed against Lin Shuangshuang’s hand with its back and nudged its head against her leg, its round eyes fixed on Lin Shuangshuang’s backpack.
Lin Shuangshuang, in perfect sync with Doumi, immediately understood the intention. Doumi wanted to help lighten Lin Shuangshuang’s backpack burden.
