Chapter 139 You Actually Prepared Hamburgers and Fried Chicken?

"The North Pole is so big. How long will it take for us to find it?"

Skye complained impatiently.

Since she had nothing to do and didn't know much about S.H.I.E.L.D.'s high-tech equipment, Simmons could only arrange to monitor the ground with her.

Simmons operates the life detector, while Skye uses an infrared thermal camera next to her to observe animals on the ground.

During this period, they were lucky enough to spot a pair of polar bears. It looked like a female polar bear was carrying her cub.

In order not to disturb them, Leni did not fly the plane close.

After confirming that there was nothing they were looking for in that area, they observed from a distance for a while and then left.

"It's only been one day and you can't stay any longer?"

Leni chuckled, controlled the fighter plane to fly at a low speed, and joked without looking back.

Skye curled her lips and did not reply. Unlike several other researchers from the academy, she could sit there for a whole day.

In this vast Arctic, all you can see is white snow and ice. If you stare at it for a long time, you may easily develop snow blindness.

Besides that, boredom was the main reason why Skye couldn't sit still.

This job is different from using her computer to hack other people's systems or black people's firewalls. It can be said that it is not challenging at all.

Just stare at the monitor screen and record any suspicious objects you see during the search.

Without a clear discovery, they wouldn't even have to get off the plane.

Is this completely different from what she imagined working as a SHIELD agent?

Logically speaking, shouldn't those so-called agents be like those in movies and TV shows who hold weapons, mingle with people, steal secrets, and do the work of licking blood on the tip of a knife?

Why are you here, just sitting on the plane and watching the surveillance?

"We've been searching all day long. When will we finally find it? Do we really have to stay in this damn place for three months?"

Skye had seen the detailed plan for this mission before, and it clearly stated that this mission was expected to take three months to complete.

But let alone three months, she has a limit of one week.

"You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, so just stay here."

Fitz marked their current location on the holographic map in red, meaning no discovery.

"Okay, it's getting late. Let's find a place to get acquainted and land and take a rest."

Melinda looked at the time and the current search progress, and estimated how long it would take to complete the search of the entire area.

"Leni, you operate it and I'll guide you."

Everyone had no objection, and it was indeed time to have lunch instead.

Although it is possible to leave the plane on autopilot and then eat it in the sky.

But since Melinda was going to teach Leni how to take off and land, it wouldn't be a bad idea to save some fuel.

So everyone found a piece of flat and thick ice and asked Leni to slowly lower the fighter plane.

"Take your time and pay attention to the balance of the fuselage! Don't just look at the altimeter! Pay attention to the level!"

Different from guiding Leni to fly the fighter plane before, when Leni started to try to land the fighter plane.

Melinda's voice began to become serious, and her voice began to increase involuntarily.

If the operational difficulty of keeping a fighter plane flying smoothly is 5, then the operational difficulty of taking off and landing a fighter plane will be 15 or even 20.

Leni said nothing, concentrating on operating the joystick.

Since she was sitting in the right passenger seat, the controls were operated with her right hand.

In the mirroring state, she needs to mirror and copy the previous operations Melinda did.

With the support of the system, it is not difficult for Leni to remember all the operating procedures.

But the actual driving operation is another matter.

Finally, under everyone's anxious attention, Melinda finally said the long-awaited words.

"OK, let's perform a system self-check. Congratulations to everyone for successfully returning to the ground alive."

After making a small joke, Melinda reached out and patted Leni on the shoulder, indicating that she could rest and leave the rest to herself.

Leni breathed a sigh of relief and rubbed her wrists, which were slightly sore from nervousness.

"It's okay. It's not as difficult as I thought."

After getting up and leaving the driver's seat, Leni went to the rear cabin and took out a table and microwave from the void.

The conditions here did not allow her to open a fire, so she could only use the microwave to simply heat the food she had prepared.

Such as potato stew and tomato and egg soup.

Leni specially borrowed the kitchen on the boat to prepare this last night, because they had agreed in advance that they would not be back at noon.

Therefore, Captain Morgan thought it was reasonable to prepare some lunch, but he was a little worried about whether they could keep it warm.

Leni's explanation for this was that there were incubators on their plane, and the captain could rest assured.

Captain Morgan had no doubts. After all, the ingredients used by Leni were originally brought by them themselves. If they just borrowed the kitchen, it didn't matter to him.

In addition, Leni's warehouse also has some cheeseburgers and fried chicken nuggets, and she has a lot of these two foods.

I'm just afraid that I'll get tired of eating other things here, so I just use it to satisfy my cravings.

Thanks to the fact that there is no concept of time in the void warehouse, when she took out the cheeseburger and fried chicken nuggets, they were still warm.

"You actually prepared burgers and fried chicken in the warehouse?"

Skye's eyes widened. She had heard from Coulson that Lainie liked cheeseburgers.

But she didn't expect Lainie to be so obsessed with this thing that she didn't forget to prepare some on her body when she came to the Arctic.

"This thing is more convenient to eat, but I didn't ask you what flavor you like to eat. I only prepared these two things."

Lainie took out a few plates and served everyone a portion of potato stewed beef.

Accompanied by hamburgers and chicken nuggets, as well as a bowl of hot tomato and egg soup.

Isn't this a hundred times better than compressed biscuits and instant noodles?

"Sure enough, those seniors said that it would be very safe to go out on field work with Miss Lainie."

Fitz and Simmons nodded in agreement. With Lainie, any field mission, as long as there is no life-threatening situation, is just a simple outing!

One person carries the supplies of an entire team, and it is effortless and does not take up space.

There are hot meals and clean drinking water wherever you go. How can this be a mission?

Isn't this just a pure trip to the Arctic?

"You've redefined field missions, Lainie."

Melinda looked at the plate in front of her with a bit of a smile.

She couldn't help but recall the time when she was exhausted from going out on missions, not to mention whether she could have a hot meal.

Whenever the location of the field mission was a bit outrageous, whether they could have a meal was a problem.

Melinda scooped a spoonful of beef stew with potatoes with a spoon, and her eyes lit up.

This familiar taste is the way Chinese food is made!

"Can you cook Chinese food?"

Laini nodded and smiled calmly.

"I have deliberately learned it before. My skills are okay, right? Do you like it?"

Melinda took another bite and gave a good evaluation.

"It seems that we don't have to eat self-heating food in the future."
