More than ten years ago-

Moon stars are rare.

Shining moonlight casts on the sparkling sea. A small private sailboat wiped the edge of the mermaid's territorial waters and sailed slowly in the sea.

And at this moment, accompanied by a rush of water, a head gleaming with faint fluorescence appeared on the quiet sea.

"..."

The unusually young, infant Titan Mermaid Prince, His Royal Highness Alfred is like a little princess in a fairy tale, floating on the sea staring fascinatedly at the bright lights on the sailing ship.

In that year, the construction of the Atlantis area was very slow, and the power system was not perfect. In the deep sea of ​​that era, mermaids rarely saw things that were brighter than human lights. Unfortunately, these bright and warm lights can make the intelligent creatures in the deep sea fascinated.

Alfred sneaked out. When he was still under the water, he was attracted by the light. At the same time, he was attracted by the music from the cabin of the sailing boat (he didn't know that music came from until many years later. A bel canto called the Beatles), of course, what attracted him the most was the sound of the food from the boat.

It was a scent he had never touched before, and it made him feel a little hungry in an instant.

In a strong curiosity, Alfred violated his mother's instruction and approached the ship little by little.

He was very close to it, so he saw the human being sitting on the deck cross-legged, singing to the music and eating at the same time.

A plate of yellow meat was placed on a white plate and placed in front of him. He twisted the meat with his hands and ate it bite by bite, making a chirping sound, and the meat juice rippling in his mouth.

"Gudong—"

Alfred took a sip of water.

His tail patted anxiously on the surface of the sea, and there was a loud sound of water-and because of this, the human immediately noticed him.

"my God--"

The human was obviously frightened, he almost rolled off the deck, and then he grabbed the shiny and light aluminum column (scientific name: beer can) and threw it towards Alfred.

——Those aluminum objects look shiny, their shapes are very special, and the patterns on the surface are also very complicated.

Alfred fell in love with them almost immediately. He regarded them as the first gift from mankind, and he happily grabbed them and played with them.

Humanity:"……"

The human was then sluggish.

Too Alfred’s unusually cute face (Titan mermaid is always beautiful, even if Alfred was a child fish with a big head and short tail more than ten years ago, he still looks cute Little angel), that human being calmed down after looking at him carefully for a long time.

"*&……%￥#——"

He spoke a series of unintelligible words to Alfred.

His body language seemed very relaxed, and Alfred finally violated the mermaid's rules in his non-stop beckoning, and leaned directly to the edge of the boat.

The closer he got to the ship, the more he cared about the yellow flesh on the deck.

They look really, really, really delicious.

Alfred wanted the pieces of meat, so he reached out and took off the ornament from his hair, a piece of live scallop.

(I want to eat that thing, I use this in exchange)

He was very polite and said softly to the human.

He watched the human's eyes widen, and a bright smile appeared on his face.

"&%%!"

The human said to Alfred exaggeratedly.

However, he did not pass the piece of meat to Alfred.

Alfred had to reluctantly increase his weight, he pulled a large piece of seaweed from his tail and placed it next to humans. It is a kind of silky seaweed with beautiful spots, which is very rare.

... The human smile became a little reluctant.

"&...%￥!"

He tried to return the seaweed to Alfred, but Alfred firmly pushed it back to humans.

That plate of meat exudes a curling aroma behind the human beings.

However, after accepting Alfred's precious exchange, humans still did not give him the meat.

Alfred found that he had nothing to exchange for... Nothing in the fairy tale book said that humans are such a stingy creature. According to the arrogant character of the Crown Prince of Great West, he should have left here long ago at this time.

But that plate of meat...really...so fragrant...

Alfred simply turned over and dived into the bottom of the water.

He decided to catch a fish to exchange the fragrant meat for this human, so he even gave up those cute and beautiful aluminum objects (you can't fish with them).

It took him a while to finally catch a huge tuna that was twice the size of his body (he was really worried that the hateful human would think he was not paid enough), and then dragged it to it out of breath. Next to that boat.

And just when he finally climbed onto the deck and wanted to eat that plate of meat-he saw the human being, holding the plate, and delivered the last piece of meat on that plate into his mouth.

Chew...chew...savoury...gravy...

"Gudong."

The human looked at Alfred and swallowed the piece of meat dullly.

...

...

...

...

——The dividing line after the memory——

"I never believe in humans."

Alfred said briefly, with a firm tone.

After that, he did not pass by Tang Xiaomi at all, and made a long whistle to the boring sharks by himself.

The sharks fell into excitement for an instant. They once again attacked the scientific research ship. The sea wind became stronger at this time. They blew the waves and cooperated with the impact of the sharks to make the entire scientific research ship. The ship shook more and more fiercely.

"God—"

The people on the boat screamed and were caught off guard. A thin, young female human accidentally fell from the gap in the railing, and "puffed" into the sea. If it hadn't been for Oreo to rush over and fish her up quickly at this time, I'm afraid this over-frightened female human would be drowning directly in the sea.

"His Royal Highness Alfred! Please stop your rude behavior!"

Now even Oreo, whose brain circuit has turned into a love state, couldn't bear it, he sternly shouted at Alfred.

And Tang Xiaomi, who had witnessed everything on the side, also changed his face. Before, he wanted to try to convince Alfred with a gentle attitude, but the young girl fell into the sea (there are many lines in the sea. Excited great white shark with a mouthful of blood) but Tang Xiaomi couldn't be gentle.

"This is really too much! Your Highness Alfred! Even if you want to expel them anyway, you should use a more civilized way—"

He couldn't help raising his voice.

... The black smoke on Alfred's body is really coming out of his ears and eyes.

"You... are yelling at me." He stared at Tang Xiaomi's eyes, slowly, word by word, "Just for this group of humans?"
