Diary of Raising a Mermaid
Chapter 53
Wen Yu patrolled the slums for a day, but found no suspicious traces.
He reported the situation to Dr. Mourin, saying that it was late and he should go back, by the way, how to arrange tomorrow.
Dr. Mourin thought for a while and said:
"If there is still no sign tomorrow, then forget it."
This surprised Wen Yu a bit:
"Aren't you afraid of dying more people?"
"Those people are people in slums."
Dr. Mourin looked more surprised and Wen Yu would ask.
"Those people are poor, disabled, and have never been better educated. The probability of a genius from a slum area is one tenth of the probability of a genius from a rich neighborhood. They have no contribution to this doomsday. I Why should you worry about them?"
Such words made Wen Yu couldn't help being silent.
Forget it, these are always human beings' own business. Wen Yu didn't want to express his opinion, so he asked:
"and then?"
"Then? Then, of course, focus on the other murloc who is running away."
Dr. Mougin said,
"If a murloc is in a slum area, then another murloc must be in the rich area. Of course we have security measures in the rich area, but who knows if there will be any accidents——
For example, the murloc who slipped into the wealthy area just appeared and killed a councillor or a scientist in a certain field.
And the death of these people may change the future of the entire survivor alliance.
As for whether the two murlocs will successfully build their nests, the gentleman who is part of that special naturally knows the result-
They will not succeed.
But driven by instinct, the two murlocs will continue to try to build a nest, even thinking about reproducing offspring, even if they get nothing in the end.
After all, they are failed experiments.
"If it's okay, I'll go back first."
Wen Yu was not at all curious what exactly Dr. Mu Ran was making. After saying this, he left directly.
This sentence is to inform, not to solicit opinions.
Dr. Mouran smiled and watched Wen Yu leave.
After Wen Yu left, the corners of Dr. Mu Ran’s smiling lips suddenly collapsed. He turned his head to look at the assistant next to him, and his brown eyes suddenly became sharp behind the black-rimmed glasses:
"How?"
"We have arranged a monitor near Colonel Wen Yu's villa and tried to break in."
The assistant wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said,
"But the protection of the villa is too strong, plus Colonel Wen Yu's first-rate perception, we haven't been able to get in yet."
Dr. Mourin sneered:
"Then what's the use for you?"
"Yes, yes!"
The assistant was frightened and stammered. He knew that if he had no useful information, he was afraid that Dr. Mougin would be expelled from the "human" race in the next second, so he quickly remedied it.
"That's it. We found that Wen Yu once brought a group of fish back to the villa. We collected the traces of the fish from the car he once carried. We have learned that the fish came from the deep sea and are a species. Very rare fish."
"fish?"
Dr. Mougin thoughtfully.
Naturally, he thought of the previous auction house telling them that they had caught a white mermaid.
Are these fishes specially used to feed mermaids?
"interesting."
Dr. Mourin thought of the lump of meat in the laboratory that was still being studied by them, and couldn't help but smile:
"Notify the scientific research team over there and ask them to get some of these fish when they come back this time."
"Yes."
Seeing that Dr. Mourin's expression eased, the assistant let out a long sigh of relief.
...
villa.
Lance woke up in a daze from the cocoon. He opened his eyes and subconsciously raised his head to look at the water, only to discover by accident that it was already dark.
How long has he slept? Why didn't Wen Yu come and call him to eat?
Lance thought about these issues, and was completely drowsy, and immediately swam out of the cocoon.
Now, after several nestings, Lance's cocoon has been almost constructed, and only a small mouth above his head is left.
This small mouth is only enough for Lance to swim out of the cocoon, and Lance is going to seal the cocoon in one breath today.
Time waits for no one, Lance is eager to evolve, of course, the faster the time the better.
When Lance swims above the water, he realizes that the sky is really dark. Judging from the lack of light in the villa, Wen Yu is not in the villa.
Where is Wen Yu going? Why haven't you come back?
Lance was thinking about this question. He could only guess what would keep Wen Yu from coming back for so long, which must be of great significance.
Forget it, Wen Yu originally had an official title, if he has been here, it would be strange.
Lance ignored the unhappiness in his heart. He sat by the pool and turned on a screen that Carl had placed here before. He wanted to check the time, but unexpectedly found that he had slept all day and night.
Why did you sleep for so long this time?
Lance couldn't help frowning.
He still remembers that Wen Yu once told him that he must not be hungry, and if he hasn't eaten anything for such a long time, Lance is afraid that he will fall into madness again.
By the way, where's the little octopus?
Even if Wen Yu is not there, the little octopus should be there.
Lance lay on the edge of the pool and looked into the water, only to see a little octopus on the underwater reef——
It stuck to the reef, even though Lance made such a big movement, the little octopus still didn't wake up.
Lance looked at the little octopus and couldn't help but tilt his head.
He has now discovered a problem.
Although Wen Yu explained to him that he and the little octopus were in a community, Lance discovered that Wen Yu never appeared with his "community", which is the little octopus.
It's like there is only one soul and consciousness, but shuttles in different bodies.
But because there is only one soul and consciousness, when in one vest, the other vest must be offline.
Thinking about this, Lance couldn't help but narrowed his eyes.
This situation...how does it feel like it can be applied to Wencer?
You must know that for a while, Wencer was not awake at all, and Wencer's explanation to him was to "assimilate."
What is "assimilation"? Is it possible that Winser, like Wen Yu, has a symbiosis like a little octopus?
Before Lance could continue to think, his stomach was groaning.
Now Lance didn't dare to think that there was nothing left. He looked up at the dark villa with a worried expression.
It looks like I'm going to do it myself.
Half an hour later, the villa was brightly lit.
The moment Wen Yu returned to his villa, he looked at the villa emitting warm lights, his expression was a bit blank for a while.
Has someone come to his house?
After he stepped into the house, the doubts in his heart suddenly turned into a phantom when he saw Lance busy in the kitchen.
Wen Yu stood at the door of the kitchen, looked at the white mermaid in the kitchen, couldn't help but laughed out with a "pouch"——
There is no other reason. Seeing the white mermaid busy in front of the stove, this scene is really too dreamy.
Although Wen Yu had seen Lance cooking in the video that Karl gave him before, seeing it with his own eyes and seeing it in the video are completely different.
He knew that Lance must have obtained the password for the villa long ago, but he didn't expect Lance to fiddle with everything in the villa so well.
Compared to the last time, this time when the white mermaid was busy, he also wore a small white apron that I didn't know where to find it.
From the perspective of Wen Yu, he can only see the smooth and white back of the white mermaid who is busy cooking on the stovetop, with only one or two cloth straps hanging on it...
Sins and sins, just looking at the upper body, this scene is indeed very reminiscent of scenes unsuitable for children.
After Wen Yu laughed, the white mermaid's ear fins, who was busy cooking, moved. He turned his head and saw Wen Yu standing at the door, and said suddenly:
[Go change your shoes and eat later. 】
Wen Yu blinked and joked:
"Isn't this what a wife would say to a husband coming home from get off work?"
Lance sneered:
[This is my very hungry complaint to the owner. 】
Wen Yu: "..."
The whole thing is indeed that he is a bit unkind.
Seeing Wen Yu obediently changing his shoes, Lance turned his head back, looked at the green vegetables in the pot, and sternly fry a few times with a spatula.
However, in fact, Lance's eyes gradually became dull.
He didn't know how things got to this point.
According to Lance's plan, he simply made fish soup at the beginning to feed himself, so as not to attack Wen Yu coming back from starvation, or to eat the cute little octopus directly.
As a result, when he came to the kitchen and saw the food in the refrigerator, Lance began to consider whether to add food to himself.
So he washed a few vegetables by the way.
After washing a few vegetables, Lance felt that he had to do a little more, and then simply prepared two portions.
But while cooking, Lance thought of oil spilling on her body (especially now that the mermaid's body is not clothed and afraid of fire), so he went to see if there was an apron in the kitchen.
Then Lance accidentally turned over to a rice cooker while looking for the apron.
Lance thought seriously for a while.
He washed two bowls of rice and put them in a rice cooker.
He is not worried that Wen Yu has eaten yet!
Anyway, he was just cooking fish soup for himself, and Lance did not expect in the end that he would even cook a gentle dinner by the way.
So, when did you have a hobby of feeding others?
Lance put his chopsticks and bowls while thinking about this question in frustration.
A few minutes later, Lance and Wen Yu were sitting at the dining table together.
One person and one mermaid were standing in front of each other, sitting upright, as if there were no home-cooked dishes in front of them, but a full-fledged banquet.
There are three dishes on the table, one green leafy vegetables, one stir-fried eggplant, and the other is fried so that you can hardly see the original fish.
Wen Yu coughed slightly and asked:
"Can I eat it?"
Lance nodded solemnly.
He pointed to the fish on the table, trying to save a little bit of face:
【You taste this fish, it looks bad, but it is still edible. 】
Wen Yu was silent.
A fish as black as carbon? That fish should have been white.
He couldn't help but start to wonder, the same was true the last time he grilled fish, why his little fish always feed him the carbon-like fish perseveringly.
Lance just said it, and then he immediately immersed himself in eating his fish soup.
If he didn't eat fish soup, he was afraid he would jump on the table and treat Wen Yu as a feast.
However, this was the first time Lance and Wen Yu ate together at the same table.
One person and one mermaid sat on the chair face to face, so that Lance found a touch of human feeling, and thought that he should be at the same level as Wen Yu.
After eating for a while, Lance looked up and found that Wen Yu hadn't moved his chopsticks. He was a little curious:
【are you not hungry? 】
Although these dishes are not very good, they can really be eaten.
Wen Yu nodded, he raised his head and looked at Lance with gentle eyes:
"Reluctant to eat."
Lance:? ? ?
"This is the meal you cooked for me."
Wen Yu didn't know why he even deducted search, so he was so petty.
In Wen Yu's memory, his dinner is very simple, usually a bottle of nutrient.
Everyone, including himself, took this solution for granted.
Convenient, efficient, and can survive.
After being combined, with Wencer's memory, Wen Yu didn't realize it was strange, and continued to use nutrients to maintain physical activity.
The kitchen is just to make fish soup for Lance.
The process of making fish soup is not complicated, and most of the work is left to the machine.
The stir-fry that Lance is now cooking requires at least several processes-
Choose vegetables, clean, stir-fry, and season.
Lance is willing to spend his thoughts on him. Does this mean that Lance actually likes him?
Even with this body, his current identity is Wen Yu, Wen Yu still couldn't help thinking about himself, and his face was slightly hot.
Sometimes, he would be crazy jealous between his two identities, but sometimes he was extremely happy with Lance, no matter who he liked, he liked him in the end.
This contradictory feeling once made Wen Yu's heart sour and sweet, and he didn't know what to do.
Is this love?
Wen Yu began to think about this issue seriously.
At this moment, when Wen Yu said these words, even Lance, who had always been dull, saw pink bubbles floating nearby.
[Enough, don't think too much! 】
As soon as Lance reached out and began to pat the table, he hurriedly changed the subject.
[Wen Yu, what are you doing out today? 】
Wen Yu woke up from his strange thoughts, he glanced at Lance, his expression unclear:
"You know, humans have been trying to fuse sea monster genes with human genes, right?"
Lance looked shocked.
He does know, is it still doing it in the laboratory?
"Yes, this experiment is still going on in the laboratory."
Wen Yu saw Lance’s expression and knew what Lance was thinking.
"Recently, two subjects escaped and caused a little trouble."
After a pause, Wen Yu added:
"The two subjects are trying to build a nest just like you."
[Are they mermaids? 】
Lance was a little curious, [Why do you call them experimental subjects instead of mermaids? 】
Wen Yu shook his head and said:
"In the eyes of human beings, mermaids have some similarities, so the word'human' is placed first, and the experimental subjects...they are pure beasts.
Hearing this, Lance waved his tail in frustration.
He thought he would go back to a few more people who had experienced the same as him.
[Wen Yu, I will finish building the nest soon. 】
Now that it is talking about nesting, Lance feels that it is necessary to tell Wen Yu, [Tonight, I will shut myself in. 】
Wen Yu looked up and was taken aback.
Lance smiled at Wen Yu and said:
[I don’t know how long I will stay in the cocoon this time, nor what I will become after getting out of the cocoon. 】
He lowered his head, glanced at the dishes on the table, and sighed:
[At least, this table dish is everything I can do for you in my last moments as Lance. 】
Lance was vaguely aware that his body and mind were gradually moving closer to the beast. As a human memory, it was basically useless in this world fifty years later. Therefore, Lance was quite afraid that after he finished building the nest, he would Forget everything that was once a human being.
"You won't forget."
After listening to Lance's confession, Yu Yu's attitude was unusually firm.
【why? 】
Seeing Wen Yu's determination, Lance was very curious, 【Since it is an evolution, he will definitely abandon something. 】
Now, in the process of building a nest, he will sometimes be controlled by instinct and lose his reason, thinking about drowning Wen Yu.
"You will remember me."
Wen Yu said these words very persistently.
"I will be your coordinates."
[This sentence...really...]
After a while, Lance couldn't help muttering to himself, and finally said, "Weird. 】
But at the same time, his ear fins quietly turned red.
