The little bug had also greatly improved Li Du's physical fitness, one of which was that it made him more energetic.
Yes, it made him more energetic.
If he did not use the little bug, Li Du would only need to sleep three to four hours a day, and he would be able to stay energetic the rest of the time.
However, he usually had to use the little bug, which drained his energy, so sometimes he would be easily exhausted.
Now that he had rested, he had slept from day to night. Although it was still dark outside, his energy had recovered, and he could not fall asleep.
Sophie was still sleeping soundly, hugging her pillow. Her sleeping posture was interesting: her body was curled up, her hands were together on the pillow, and her head was slightly resting on her arms.
Looking at her sleeping posture, Li Du suddenly remembered an analysis he had read. It said that when people slept like this, they lacked a sense of security.
He remembered the analysis saying that many children in orphanages slept like this, and many soldiers who had participated in the war slept like this. But Sophie had lived a happy life since she was young, right? Why did she like to sleep like this?
After thinking about it, he quietly went to Sophie's bed and carefully hugged her.
Ah Meow, Crispy Noodles, and Ah Ow turned over and got up from the sofa. The three little ones blinked in confusion and looked at him strangely.
Li Du made a shushing gesture, then pressed his wrist down to signal them to go back to sleep.
The little ones pursed their lips. Crispy Noodles lay down first, Ah Ow lay in Crispy Noodles's lower abdomen, and Ah Meow circled around. The three little ones helped each other and fell asleep.
Sophie slept until the second half of the night. She opened her eyes and looked at Li Du sleepily. She smiled sweetly and said, "Darling, why are you in my bed?"
Li Du looked at her and said, "Nothing, I felt lonely, so I came over to hug you."
Sophie turned around and hugged him. She buried her face in his chest and murmured, "Yes, I feel lonely too. Go back to sleep."
He did not know if Li Du was overthinking, but from her sleeping posture and her words, he felt that Sophie was also a girl with a story.
After more than ten hours of rest, the four of them met up early the next morning, all of them full of energy.
The breakfast provided by the hotel was ordinary hamburgers and hot dogs, which Li Du was not interested in. There were no restaurants nearby, so he could only eat by himself.
Sophie was about to buy a burger when Li Du waved his hand and said, "I'll make breakfast for you. It'll give you the feeling of traveling."
Hearing this, Sophie smiled expectantly and said, "That's great. Do you need me to help you?"
Li Du said, "I only need applause."
Not only did he need applause, he really needed help. However, Sophie could not do it. Big Quinn had to step in.
Big Quinn received his instructions and went to talk to the hotel owner. "Excuse me, can we use your restaurant to cook something for ourselves?"
The owner was initially reluctant, but after seeing Big Quinn's ferocious appearance and rugged muscles, he decided to give in. "Sure, sure."
Big Quinn thanked him politely and took out a hundred dollars to pay the owner for the use of the oil and ingredients.
Yesterday, Godzilla had gone to replenish his food supply. He had restocked his car with many kinds of vegetables.
Li Du saw that there were red peppers, green peppers, carrots, onions, and other vegetables. He took some out and tasted the spiciness before chopping them up.
There was spicy cabbage in the hotel kitchen. Seeing this, he asked and ate some.
The owner was very easy to talk to. Maybe the hundred dollars had worked. He told Li Du that he could use anything in the kitchen.
Li Du did not need anything from him. Godzilla, the glutton, had turned the pickup truck into a vegetable market. There was a full range of food and vegetables.
The spicy cabbage was also diced. He took two plates of eggs and cracked them into a small bowl. After beating the eggs, he added some flour and salt.
Then, he poured olive oil into the pot. Once the oil was hot, he spread the egg mixture evenly and drizzled some cooking oil from the edges.
A sizzling sound came from the pot, and the rich aroma of oil and eggs quickly reached his nose.
Without a big fire, the omelet was set in no time.
At this time, he used a spatula to roll the omelet, sprinkled some white sesame and black pepper on it while it was still hot, and waited for it to be cooked.
He made a Korean omelet, which was suitable as a breakfast staple. It was fragrant and tasty. It was rich in vegetables and had high nutritional value.
This was the staple food. He saw that there was ham in the truck, so he cut some.
He made some fried eggs first, and then fried the ham in oil. The ham was cut into the size of a fried egg, and the fried egg was placed on top. This was the next dish.
There was also bamboo shoots in the kimchi jar. With the addition of warm milk, a rich breakfast was ready.
Li Du borrowed a western plate and a cover from the owner. He brought it out and opened it in front of Sophie. Along with the aroma, a few delicious dishes appeared.
Looking at the omelet, bamboo shoots, and ham, Sophie smiled contentedly. The ham was covered with a fried egg, and there was a smiley face on it. Li Du had painted it with soy sauce.
Godzilla and Big Quinn also got the same food, but there was no smiley face on the fried egg. Godzilla thought for a while, and then used the soy sauce bottle to paint it.
Looking at the crooked eyes and mouth, Big Quinn said helplessly, "Can you be more careful? Is this a crying omelet? "
Godzilla said confidently, "I'm going to be eaten. How can I not cry?"
Big Quinn was speechless.
Li Du's breakfast was fragrant, and some tourists noticed it. They asked the owner, "How much is their breakfast? Give me one. "
The owner said helplessly, "Sorry, they made it themselves. This shop doesn't provide it."
"Then I'll make it myself." The tourists were not willing to eat hamburgers.
The owner glanced at Big Quinn and Godzilla, and then shook his head firmly. "Sorry, this shop doesn't lend out our kitchen."
"Didn't they borrow it?"
The owner said, "If you have the same size and build, I'll borrow it too."
He didn't lend it to Big Quinn because he was afraid that the shop would be smashed. However, ordinary tourists were not afraid.
After breakfast, Li Du still had to deal with the opals in his hands. There were 35 pieces, and there was no need to keep them. It was better to exchange them for money.
Li Du called Owen and said, "This is China Li —"
"Boy Wonder, I remember you. What do you need help with?" Owen asked.
Li Du said, "I want to deal with a batch of fire opals. Can you take them?"
This surprised Owen. He knew that Li Du would get the gemstones, but he didn't expect him to get them so quickly.
So he quickly said, "Of course, of course, I can take them. Oh, you said a batch? Did I hear you correctly? You didn't say a batch? "
"Yes, it's a batch. There are more than 30 pieces —"
"Where are you? I'll pick you up immediately! "Owen interrupted him in surprise." Buddy, you're really a boy wonder! "
