It must be admitted that when Tang Xiaomi heard that Alfred said that the "last man" was Oreo, the whole mermaid was relieved.

Although it's a bit impolite to say that, after Tang Xiaomi had been in contact with the Titan Mermaid for so long... he still felt that Oreo was the only one among the mermaid to be reliable. Without him, I feel that the overall reliability of the Titan Mermaid can be lowered by another 20%.

However, while Tang Xiaomi felt at ease, the thing called "intuition" in his body kept sounding alarms.

"I always feel... something will happen."

In order to avoid setting up the flag, Tang Xiaomi preempted to speak out his unclear premonition.

"Don't be nervous. I will protect you."

Alfred stared deeply at my dear Mi, and said emotionally.

[No... what is going on when I hear such words and become more anxious. 】

...

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Tang Xiaomi's premonition to come true. He learned that all the participants in the dance had a uniform dress code-that is, no clothes.

"Wait, you repeat?"

The time was the day before the prom, and the place was Tang Xiaomi's own room.

Tang Xiaomi issued an unbelievable question to Alfred, who was working hard to dig holes in the wall at this time. Evelyn discovered that Alfred would always hide in Tang Xiaomi’s window not long ago. After the bottom, the window was sealed on the grounds of ensuring Tang Xiaomi's sleep quality.

If it were in normal romance novels at this time, Tang Xiaomi and Alfred would probably be able to cosplay the painful actor and the two protagonists looking at each other with tears through the sealed window. But it is obvious that their life script is still slightly different from the word "normal", and Evelyn's "sticky mandarin duck" measure is still of no use to the Titans. Because Alfred, who was looking forward to seeing Tang Xiaomi, would always use his claws to dig a hole in the hard rock wall and then get in. After he left, Evelyn could only continue to use the broken barnacle secretions. The stone fills the hole in the wall—and now Tang Xiaomi’s wall has many similar repair marks.

Today is the same procedure as before. Alfred started digging a hole proficiently, and at this time he had successfully squeezed his upper body in.

But he didn't know what he had brought over, but he got stuck in the back half of his body after he drilled halfway.

Tang Xiaomi sighed.

He crouched in the corner with his tail crossed, watching Alfred wriggle desperately into the room, but his eyes were empty.

"...This is ridiculous. At any rate, it's a dance party for the royal family's foreign wives, isn't it? Why do you want everyone to take off their costumes? What if they are females?"

Alfred's body danced up and down in the water.

"Females won't participate in this kind of dance." His tail slapped the reef desperately outside the wall, making a heavy thump, "Traditional mermaid has no clothes, only tattoos."

He explained.

For countries like the Great Western Countries that have existed for too long, the concubine dance party is naturally the most traditional and original route, so modern saltwater mermaids are also required to follow the ancient rituals, with naked bodies and complicated tattoos on their upper bodies. decorate.

Tang Xiaomi rolled his head in pain on the ground for a few laps, and began to search the Internet for what the **** was the traditional body tattoo of the Great Western Countries. Under this keyword, several pictures called the "secret garden" of the tattoo world came into his eyes.

"No way……"

Tang Xiaomi really wailed.

Please don't tell him that he will also get this kind of tattoo on himself that is so complicated that he will feel dizzy after looking at it for more than ten seconds.

"It will definitely die!"

Thinking of it, I feel almost fainted. Fortunately, Alfred gave an explanation at this time. The tattoos used in this kind of ceremony are usually painted directly on the surface of the mermaid's skin with a special herbal mixed gold powder-this special herbal medicine can fix the tattoo on the mermaid's body. Above, it is easy and painless for students to participate in group purchases. The only drawback is that it stays for a long time. Vincent of this kind of mixed herbs can stay on the skin of a mermaid for up to half a year. There is no other way except time. Able to wash it off.

"Hey, isn't this a good thing?"

Tang Xiaomi was a little puzzled.

"Sometimes, I accidentally draw it crookedly."

"..."

Well, a very convincing answer.

Tang Xiaomi thought, and then he became anxious about where to find a reliable tattoo artist to help him draw a tattoo.

"boom--"

Finally, Alfred knocked off a stone with brute force, and finally rolled into the room under the action of inertia.

Tang Xiaomin looked back at the huge hole in his wall, a little entangled whether he continued to worry about the tattoo or how to explain the hole to his mother later.

Then he quickly discovered the culprit who had caused Alfred to get stuck-a bag of sea snails tied with seaweed around his waist. And what's in the conch...is tattoo paint.

"Eh? You brought this kind of thing here..."

Tang Xiaomi backed his tail several times. He stared at Alfred Conch. If he saw it right just now... the contents seemed to be squirming.

[Yes, it is an illusion. 】

Just as the freshwater mermaid's face was blue and comforted, the group of tattoo pigments actually looked like a mixture of deep purple snot and vegetable leaves and ejected the conch in a fierce manner-and then Al Fred snapped back. He put a lid on the mouth of the conch, and the white conch swayed in his palm for a long time and finally recovered his calm.

...No, never tattoo with this kind of thing.

At the moment when Tang Xiaomi made up his mind, Alfred's face was red and his eyes drifted brightly and opened his mouth to Tang Xiaomi.

"I want to help you draw a tattoo."

"..."

Can you refuse?

Tang Xiaomi felt that his soul was shouting.

But Alfred started to launch a sight attack with that kind of super poor stray puppy dog ​​trembling on your heels, wanting to go home together, fat round cat wanting to eat canned food.

[No, no, never touch this kind of thing! 】

Alfred: ●︿●

[Uh... in short, don't...]

Alfred: ●﹏●

[That, looks really suspicious...]

Alfred: (╥╯^╰╥)

【嘤嘤嘤Don’t look at me with that look...]

...

Tang Xiaomi quickly defeated the battle without any spine.

"Tattoos are pretty good, but can't I really get someone else to get them..."

Would it be more reliable if you go to a professional store?

Tang Xiaomi finally struggled to save herself.

Probably the hesitant expression on his face was so obvious that Alfred was irritated, and the prince of Titan "Wh-" pulled off his long hair, showing his strong chest and abdomen in front of Tang Xiaomi's eyes.

He pointed to the complicated tattoos on his body.

"I painted it myself." He said, "Don't worry."

Eh eh eh eh-

Tang Xiaomi was shocked.

Those tattoos on Alfred were actually painted by himself?

It was... incredible... Tang Xiaomi never thought that these unusually beautiful tattoos on Alfred's skin were from his own hands.

Suddenly, the image of His Royal Highness the Titan Prince became particularly glamorous and handsome in Tang Xiaomi's eyes.

"It's amazing, I didn't expect it at all."

He couldn't hold back, and leaned in front of Alfred and carefully looked at the tattoo on his Royal Highness's body. Then Tang Xiaomi found...

"Uh, Al, you don't have a tattoo on your back."

He said casually.

And Alfred frowned somewhat annoyed, then nodded, "Because I can't reach it."

Oh, hahaha is it because it is out of reach...

Can't it be...

After Tang Xiaomi reacted to what Alfred had said, his expression became extremely complicated.

[What should I do? I suddenly wanted to laugh. 】

I was subtly stabbed in the smile, but after thinking about it, I still felt that it was cold-blooded to laugh like this-the final result was that Tang Xiaomi's facial muscles were a little distorted.

This made Alfred a little bit crooked, and he solemnly assured Tang Xiaomi again.

"I will paint well."

"Well……"

Faced with this kind of promise to block the whole mermaid, Tang Xiaomi finally decided to let Alfred come to help him draw the tattoo.

What follows is naturally a series of episodes where Xiaomi is **** for the first time in front of a lover. Both sides are very shy and a mermaid is very excited, while the other mermaid is very ignorant and embarrassed.

But this is not the point, the point is a few hours later-

Enduring the motionless posture and boredom, Tang Xiaomi yawned and talked with His Royal Highness one after another.

"...Speaking of which, why do you want to get such a complicated tattoo? That's a hassle."

"There is information on the tattoo."

Alfred traced the lines carefully, and it took a while to answer Tang Xiaomi.

"Information? Wait a minute. You won't hide anything like a map of the black coral reef on the tattoo." Tang Xiaomi's mind immediately showed the plot of the American TV series and the movie. Fortunately, Alfred's low answer came from behind him soon.

"will not."

"Huh... that's good."

"The information on the tattoo does not need to be hidden." Alfred said seriously, "Tattoos need to...directly deter the other party."

"Direct deterrence? What do you mean..."

At this moment, Tang Xiaomi suddenly felt that his eyelids began to beat frantically.

This extremely bad intuition is--

"All right."

Alfred accepted the last sum and said excitedly.

Tang Xiaomi shook his tail tremblingly and stood up. He rushed to the front of the mirror for the first time, and after seeing the reflection in the mirror, he immediately understood what "direct deterrence" means.

On the fragile and white skin of a freshwater mermaid, a fierce, cold, silent and lifelike Titan head is barking his teeth.

——Yes, Alfred drew a self-portrait of himself on Tang Xiaomi's body.
