He just wanted to eat fish.
That was all.
"Mayo, please wait here, okay?"
"Mayo~"
Thinking that the climate would be too hot for Mayo, Qiong Xing made a simple shade using driftwood and a bath towel he had picked up.
They had brought spare clothes for everyone, but there was no need to deliberately soak them.
After leaving Cari in just his underwear and taking off only his own trousers, Qiong Xing headed toward the shallows with him.
Feeling the texture of the sand flowing beneath his feet on the beach for the first time, Cari seemed to feel strangely restless.
"Are you scared?"
"My feet feel weird."
While holding hands with Cari as he splashed the water's surface, Qiong Xing scraped at the sand with his feet as if digging.
When something lightly tapped against his foot, he reached down and pulled it up with his hand.
It was small, but it was the clam he had been looking for.
