Chapter 106 - Chapter 106: Setting Off to Bermuda 2!

As we were all riding our underwater bicycles through the mountains surrounded by the sea floor, a sudden rumbling sound echoed through the otherwise silent environment.

"What was that noise?"

Everyone instantly went on alert.

It startled all of us—we thought something had emerged from the ocean depths!

We looked toward the source, and it turned out to be Gian's stomach growling.

"Sorry! Sorry! It's my stomach rumbling. Doraemon, it's about time for lunch!" Gian said awkwardly, scratching his head.

It left everyone speechless, especially Suneo, whose bike had even tipped over from the scare.

"Alright, let's find a higher spot to camp!" Doraemon said, noticing it was nearly noon and we'd been riding for quite a while.

It seemed like a good time to rest.

So Doraemon pointed to the mountain peak ahead and said, "How about that mountaintop? It could serve as a landmark too!"

We all looked and saw that the mountaintop was a natural large platform.

From a distance, it looked just like a table.

Everyone agreed, so we rode our bikes up to the mountaintop platform.

"So, what do we do next for resting?" I asked curiously.

"I've got something good!" Doraemon said with a mysterious smile.

Then he pulled out a model from his four-dimensional pocket, connected to a gas cylinder.

"Apartment Pretend Tree!"

Doraemon held the Apartment Pretend Tree and walked a bit away.

"It's a bit dangerous, so stay back. This spot should be fine."

Doraemon placed the Apartment Pretend Tree on the ground and opened the valve on the connected gas cylinder.

"Alright, here we go!" After opening the valve, he quickly ran away.

Right after Doraemon ran off, in the blink of an eye, the tiny model-sized Apartment Pretend Tree began inflating and growing larger until it was the size of a real house.

"All done! It has six rooms," Doraemon said, seeing the surprise in everyone's eyes and looking very pleased.

"Alright, come on in! I'll explain the facilities inside the rooms." Doraemon opened the door to the Apartment Pretend Tree, and we all went inside together.

Once inside, Doraemon gave a simple introduction to the six identical rooms.

Each had a bed, a bathroom, and in the middle, there was a dining hall with a special underwater cooking machine that could make food from ocean plankton.

But suddenly, Doraemon said something with a serious face.

"There's one more very important thing!" Doraemon started acting like a strict dad, getting all serious.

It confused me a bit—I'd never seen Doraemon this serious before.

Everyone listened carefully to Doraemon's words, not daring to make a sound, afraid it was something related to our safety.

Even Suneo and Gian weren't goofing around.

"Living underwater, if you forget this, something terrible could happen."

Doraemon didn't continue right away but opened a nearby door.

"There's a small room here. Everyone, please come in!"

Doraemon waited for us to enter, then closed the door behind us.

What could be so important that it couldn't be said outside? Everyone's hearts skipped a beat.

We couldn't wait to hear what Doraemon had to say.

"Alright, now remember: when you come in, close the door, then press this button first."

"Then use the pump to drain out the water!"

"Once the water's drained, the toilet will appear!"

"There, that's it done."

After demonstrating, Doraemon let out a sigh of relief.

Seeing this, everyone collapsed in disbelief.

I was a bit dumbfounded, while Gian burst out laughing.

"Is that the important thing you were talking about?" Suneo said, barely holding back his expression.

"Don't scare us like that, Doraemon!" Shizuka and Seiko Saotome scolded him.

Seeing everyone not taking it seriously, Doraemon got anxious and shouted, "This is important!"

"If you try to go in the water, the waste will mix with the water."

That's when everyone suddenly realized—we were still underwater.

Imagining if that really happened, Shizuka and Seiko Saotome felt a chill, their skin crawling.

It was so gross!

The two girls' faces turned a bit red from hearing this discussion about bathroom matters.

I thought to myself, Doraemon being so serious about reminding us—maybe in the future world, some unlucky person had an incident and it became a classic case!

I could only say Doraemon was really thoughtful and caring for not forgetting something this important.

After repeatedly reminding us of its importance, Doraemon finally led everyone back out.

After eating in the living room, Doraemon took us out for a bike ride around the area.

Along the way, we encountered plenty of deep-sea fish, even a giant squid, but luckily the underwater bicycles were fast enough.

When we returned to the camp without any real danger, Doraemon suggested having a campfire party to get that real camping vibe.

"Sure, but how do we start a fire underwater? And it's already 7 PM—because of the Adaptation Light, it's still as bright as day!" Suneo fired off a string of questions at Doraemon.

It was a question on everyone else's mind too.

"Don't worry, I've got it all prepared!" Doraemon said with a confident smile.

Then he pulled out the props he'd prepared in advance.

"Dimming Lamp, which can temporarily make the surroundings dark."

"Underwater Campfire, a flame that can be used underwater without going out."

Doraemon thought for a moment. "For barbecue and other food, we can just use the underwater cooking machine."

"Alright, everyone can start the camping campfire party!" Doraemon said with a laugh.

"Yay!" Everyone immediately lit the fire, and in the darkened atmosphere, we skewered the meat and started grilling.

The surroundings suddenly turned pitch black, with only the campfire's glow remaining. We all sat around the campfire grilling meat—it was the ultimate camping atmosphere.

During it, Gian wanted to belt out a song, but Suneo quickly stopped him.

He said Gian's singing was too wonderful and would disturb the peaceful underwater atmosphere.

The rest of us hurried over to persuade him too, saying all sorts of nice things until we finally talked Gian out of singing.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Of course, only Seiko Saotome was clueless and couldn't understand why we wouldn't let Gian sing.

I could only think she was lucky to have escaped that fate.

Living underwater reminded me of SpongeBob.

I never thought Doraemon's gadgets would let humans live underwater just like in SpongeBob.

And so, amid all the fun and chatter, we happily spent our first night camping underwater.
