Conan’s Corpse Picker

Chapter 207: Eat less

Chapter 207 Eat less

Jiang Xia's eyes fell on her flapping tail, and she unconsciously remembered the feeling when she caught the mermaid just now - the tail was ice-cold, not sticky, and felt like a washed and dried iced watermelon. In summer, it definitely feels better when held in hand.

It's just that this rare ghost fetus is as big as a human being, and it will definitely eat a lot of murderous energy.

 But such a big ghost is so good-looking. Even if it consumes a lot, he still wants it. The worst he can do is just leave it in the pattern space and let it rest...

The mermaid has an inexplicable feeling of being watched. Someone who can give her this feeling...

The tips of her ears twitched slightly and she stared at Jiang Xia suspiciously.

Jiang Xia came back to his senses and continued the topic. He touched the mermaid's big tail and said seriously: "You don't have to worry about this - as long as you agree to my request just now, I will naturally help you. However, you can't kill too much. Directly, for the sake of your island and shrine, this better be some 'accident'."

 …

 That night, several high school students checked into the hotel on Mermaid Island.

As soon as Jiang Xia lay down, she felt something outside the window.

 He sat up and found the mermaid clinging to the window, staring at him dimly.

 …so impatient.

Jiang Xia got out of bed and took out a stick of ghost mint.

  The tip of the mermaid's nose moved slightly, sniffing the scent, then got into the room through the window, and swam to Jiang Xia's hand with curiosity and a little desire.

Jiang Xia pressed down the lighter and warned carefully: "Don't eat too much, just enough to move."

  The mermaid stared straight at Ghost Mint, and a trace of suspicious crystal liquid passed through the corner of her mouth. She raised her hand to wipe it reservedly, then patted Jiang Xia with the tip of her tail, silently urging him.

Jiang Xia took one last look at his ghost mint, sighed, and lit it.

 I hope the murderous energy consumed by the mermaid can be smaller like other normal ghost fetuses...

 …

Shimabukuro Kimie sent Kaori Saori home, stayed with her for a while, and then left.

 Saori Monari closed the door and relaxed her anxious mood again.

Just now Shimabukuro Kime talked with her for a while, and then the kind-hearted miko reluctantly agreed to her request and said that she would give her dugong arrows in a few days.

This gave Monori Saori great comfort—with the dugong arrows around, she would definitely not be plagued by the mermaid.

 She returned to the house comfortably and planned to take a bath.

However, when she walked into the bathroom, the sight in front of her made her freeze on the spot and her heart rate increased sharply - a mermaid appeared out of thin air in the bathtub. The mermaid had wet hair, a long fish tail and slender hand bones trailing behind her. He buckled it on the edge of the bathtub and showed a ferocious smile to Kaori Saori.

There was a buzz in Menri Shazhi's head, and she felt like falling into an ice cave for a moment.   …

A few seconds later, with a loud scream, a figure knocked open the door of the house, rolled and crawled out of the house.

The mermaid ghost looked at Menarishaori's back and let out a cold snort of pleasure.

 Then she scattered the puppet materials that Jiang Xia temporarily lent her, and happily drifted to the next place to catch up.

The mermaid did not waste her murderous energy as Jiang Xia had worried before. It has been floating on the island for three years, and she has never eaten such delicious food, so when she eats Murderous Aura, she instinctively nibbles it in small bites. If she wants to eat it for a longer time, she is naturally quite frugal in using it - use it slowly, and the Murderous Aura will She likes the feeling of being full of power if she can stay in her body for a while longer.

 The mermaid thought of those delicious murderous auras and couldn't help but change her previous idea that "it is a shame to be subdued by a psychic".

—Although she is regarded as a demon **** by the islanders, if you think about it carefully, she is actually just a ghost.

As a new ghost who was born less than three years ago, running to hug the spiritual medium’s lap didn’t seem to be an intolerable thing.

Moreover, she secretly took a look at Jiang Xia's luggage before. Jiang Xia brought several boxes of delicious ghost mints like that... Even if you can't eat them, it's still a wonderful thing to watch them next to them...

 …

 Kadori Saori finally failed to run to the shrine as she wished.

 There is a river between her house and the shrine. And as soon as she reached the river, she saw the mermaid appearing on the bridge.

This mermaid who came to seek life seemed to be able to appear anywhere nearby at will. Frightened, Kadori Saori gradually lost her ability to think. She was chased by the mermaid and ran away. In the end, she tripped and fell into the sea in embarrassment.

 Saori Menarii fell into the knee-deep sea water, terrified to the extreme - in various legends, the sea is regarded as the home of mermaids.

Just now she narrowly escaped death on the shore, and now she fell into the sea...

However, in despair, Kadori Saori was surprised to find that the mermaid did not step forward and tear her into pieces.

  But stopped at the shore.

The mermaid stood on the beach, staring at her with a cold expression, but did not move forward.

Even, Kadori Saori found that every time the tide rushed towards the mermaid, she would curl up the tip of her tail slightly in disgust to avoid the waves.

Mamonari Saori was startled, and a word came to his mind.

Freshwater fish?

 No, no, that shouldn't be the reason. How can a mermaid be afraid of sea water...

Since it’s not because of sea water, then…
