"Ari, Aria..."
Bruce and Jaydon were burning with anxiety. They searched everywhere for any sign of Aria.
The group of indigenous people was shocked. Each of them looked at the two of them in bewilderment.
After all, both sides did not understand each other's language, so they had no idea what the two men
were saying.
"Aria! Aria, where are you?" Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
The two of them checked several nearby straw sheds, but there was no sign of Aria.
Jaydon looked worried. "Oh no," he said. "Oh no. Ari must have run into trouble.
"Why did you sleep so soundly last night?"
Bruce's expression turned serious. He asked, "Why did you sleep so soundly?"
Last night, both of them were too exhausted. They fell asleep as soon as they lay down.
"Let's not blame each other. Let's hurry and find Ari."
"Ari. Ari..."
"You search over there, and I'll search this way. Let's gather here in an hour."
The two of them were about to split up and search.
Two or three indigenous people led Aria and walked toward both of them.
While walking, Aria used gestures to convey something.
Seeing this, the two of them instantly heaved a sigh of relief.
"Aria, where did you go?"
"Oh, I asked their chieftain to take me to see their boat. They're willing to lend it to us."
The two of them were stunned and left speechless when they heard this. They looked at Aria in
disbelief.
Aria did not speak the island's native language.
However, her ability to express herself was relatively stronger. Through gestures and drawing, she
made the chieftain understand what she meant.
The chieftain knew that she wanted a boat.
After that, the chieftain brought Aria to see the boat.
"Really? That's great." The two of them were overjoyed.
With a boat, they would be able to leave the island.
Aria frowned and somewhat disappointedly said, "I just went to take a look. That boat is too basic. I'm
afraid it won't be able to withstand the ocean waves.
"We may have to modify and reinforce it."
"No problem. Take us to see it first."
"Okay."
"Let's have something to eat first."
A few indigenous women handed them some food and said something that was unintelligible.
The three of them had not had a proper meal for four or five days since they set out on their journey.
They had already finished all the food they had brought with them.
However, the food prepared today was decent. It was roasted sea fish and some wild vegetables.
"Grab a bite. Let's fill our stomachs first."
"Alright," Bruce said as he took it with a frown. "Thanks."
This fish was truly unadulterated. There were no seasonings. Fortunately, seafood naturally had its own
salty flavor.
After breakfast, the chieftain and Aria were to take Bruce and Jaydon to see the boat.
After walking for over an hour, the chieftain finally brought them to the seaside. They took a look and
saw a motorized dinghy anchored in the sea.
It was obvious at a glance that this was left behind by an outsider. It did not look like a product of the
island.
After all, every few years, there would always be some foolhardy people who wanted to explore the
island.
Most of these people did not return. Their things were also left on the island.
However, the residents of the island did not know how to operate these motor vehicles. They could only
leave them on the seashore to slowly deteriorate.
"Is this the boat?"
"Damn. Can this even be called a boat? Isn't this too shabby?"
"We've got no other choice. This is the only boat on the island. The others are all wooden boats.
There's no way they could navigate the sea."
"Let's check and see if the engine is still working. Then, we'll do some repairs on the damaged parts.
We can only rely on this boat now."
"Let's get into the boat and take a look first," Bruce said and took the lead to jump into the boat.
