Su Jinqing, who fell from the sky, was like a pink bomb thrown into the deep sea, knocking over all-male creatures lurking in the sea floor.
Ivanovich hurriedly put away his hip flask, Edwin straightened out his wild hair, and a few muddy and smelly boys doing research on bird species kicked their smelly boots under the table, out of Su Jingqing’s sight.
Penny looked at her and then at them. How embarrassing…
Su Jinqing’s smiling eyes looked at them and she said, “May I know where my desk is?”
All eyes instantly turned to the corner, and in the most inconspicuous corner, a ramshackle table was standing pitifully with its broken legs. A gust of wind came and in no time, they heard a “pop” sound as a rabbit corpse that had not yet stuffed rolled down from the top of the table and fell heavily to the floor.
All were silent for three seconds, and at the next moment, there was a speed of life and death.
All the male employees rushed frantically to the broken table.
“I’ll clean up!”
“No, no, no, no, I’ll do it!”
“This table is beside me, of course I am in charge!”
“You hypocrite! You didn’t bother to clean this before anyway so step aside!”
“Whose is this dead rabbit anyway?”
Penny shook her head helplessly and cursed the boys in her mind. With a forced smile which failed to appear pleasant, she looked at Su Jinqing. Facing this seemingly gentle and soft little girl, maternal love cells in her body flooded her senses.
“We must leave them alone. They have occupied your desk and will be responsible for cleaning it up for you. Sister, I’ll take you to meet my colleagues in other departments and introduce you to the areas we are responsible for. ”
Su Jinqing readily agreed.
She traveled light with only a suitcase and a backpack. She left her things in the office and followed Penny out of the staff area.
The whole Kakadu National Park covers a huge area. It is the largest natural park in Australia and the second largest in the world. It’s wide lakes are its most-boasted features, however, because the natural environment here is the best, it is also home to the largest number of saltwater crocodiles.
Saltwater crocodiles are the largest crocodiles on land with the largest one recorded to have the length of 5 or 6 meters long. This kind of crocodile is very rare in Asia, but it is found everywhere in the lakes of the Kakadu. It also has a very long life span. In a private zoo in Darwin, capital of the Northern Territory, an artificially raised saltwater crocodile is 80 years old.
Its temperament is as ferocious as its appearance.
Penny found a small motorboat from the dock. “You came at a very opportune time, just in time for the sunset cruise!”
The lakes has boats at sunrise and sunset. Tourists can take these boats to enjoy the beautiful scenery while looking for the crocodile.
Su Jinqing stepped onto a rickety motorboat and sat beside the excited Penny.
At sunset, the sun hung down to the west, and the warm sunshine sprinkled on the beach, attracting all the crocodiles to climb to the shore and bask lazily under the sun.
The speedboat passed by them and one crocodile heard its sound and opened its eyes. The vertical pupil was cold and malicious just like the gaze of death. Humans looked at them in such a close range, and they also looked at these intruders at the same time with piqued curiosity, therefore, some draw closer to the boats.
“Why do you want to volunteer in the wetland? This job is not easy, hard and tiring. ” Penny suddenly asked her, “Look at the way those stinky boys behave, you should know that there are very few girls here who are willing to stay, especially beautiful ones like you.”
Su Jinqing looked up at the horizon. The sunlight outlined fluffy golden edges. The girl’s voice was soft and calm, like spring water flowing down a mountain. “Where should beautiful girls go then?”
“…”

“Are they supposed to dress up to shine, put into boxes, then be displayed on shelves?” Su Jinqing stared at the far horizon while she spoke.
“Because they are so beautiful, everyone stops in front of them and point at them through the glass window. Their every move will be magnified and watched carefully. They don’t need beautiful girls to have any ego, they just want them to be sophisticated Barbie dolls.”
“……”
“But once Barbie has been a doll for too long, and she will forget that she’s a human being.”
“… Sorry.” Penny apologized awkwardly, “That’s not what I meant. I just feel…Sorry, have I offended you? ”
Shaking her head, she gave a shy smile towards Penny. “I should be the one to say sorry.” She released a soft chuckle. “I am too sensitive. I know you bear no malice. I just hope that you can think it over.” She paused. “Before I came, I had fully understood the hardships and difficulties of this work and I am confident that I could overcome them.”
Penny nodded and no longer continued the topic.
Every volunteer who comes to Kakadu has their own story. Many people want to work in this field in order to escape society. The law of survival of wildlife is more naked. The life of the jungle is cruel but simple.
“Don’t you want to take pictures?” asked Penny.
The weather is warm today, and there were many crocodiles lying on the shore. In the distance, there is also a rare Australian buffalo walking slowly with heavy steps. It has five or six waterbirds resting on it, making it look like a walking Christmas tree.
“No, I don’t have a camera.”
“What about mobile phones?”
Su Jinqing shook her head. “I don’t need a mobile phone.”
“Hhmm.. You really are a rare one.” Penny was surprised. “My son has been clamoring for a new mobile phone, saying he wants to play games online and make friends. He also told me to choose one with an HD camera, said its for his social account. ”
Su Jinqing didn’t answer and just gave a smile.
Not long ago, the new mobile phones in her studio were piled up into hills for her to choose. She complied with the rules in the circle, one for work and one for personal use. However, mobile phones used for work was blown up by the media from time-to-time, especially when there was trouble.
And, the only person she wanted to contact for personal use was no longer alive.
She has a lot of pictures with her mother in her personal cell phone. At that time, she thought the photos could keep her mother alive and healthy, but only after her mother left did she know that the real pain of loss could never be lifted by a mere photo.
On the contrary, every time she turned on the computer and every time her mother’s smiles graced the screen, it is a torture that goes deep into her bone marrow.
True love stays in your heart.
Since the day of her mother’s death, she has lived a muddled life. Her soul felt trapped in her body. She cries and wails almost every moment, but no one heard her. Fang Xie, Xiaoxia, Ashan couldn’t hear her, and even her fans and the staff around her was blind of her inner turmoil.

She had thought about asking for help, but who would she tell and who would like to listen to Barbie? She had thought about whether to contact her twin sister, but they had not seen each other for ten years!
She knew that Su Jishi had been bitter about her mother’s choice when her parents divorced. She had no courage to open her mouth in front of her sister to tell her pain.
So she “fled”.
From that day on, she kept away from the crowd, did not go online and did not contact anyone. At the Northern Territory airport, she turned on her mobile phone for the last time and looked through the photos with her mother.
Then she left the mobile phone there for forever.
