He and It

"One day, we have to talk about the issue of touching..." Jiang Mian's eyebrows relaxed and he murmured vaguely, "However, it is not the next topic... At the moment, we have more important things to talk about."

Rapace hovered in front of the young man's knees, still close to him under the water, unwilling to let go. He sniffed his partner's less bitter breath, and a satisfied little smile appeared on his face.

Despite some similarities in appearance, merfolk are still physically larger than humans, especially large deep-sea merfolk like Rapace. Even a strong basketball star or rugby player still looks like an immature child when compared with a mermaid who is three and a half meters long, let alone Jiang Mian.

However, as some researchers joked privately, in front of Jiang Mian, the mermaid king only had the skin of an apex predator, but the core was a giant marshmallow, which looked cruel and fierce, but was actually sticky and sweet.

Jiang Mian, who avoided social centers and knew nothing about anything, sighed.

Now that his mood has stabilized a lot, after brewing for a while, the secret was quietly revealed.

"She...the institute's project numbered her as No. 001. But in private, when she and I were alone, I always called her Ms. Red."

The author has something to say:

[Join V on Friday, and a 10,000-word chapter will be dropped on the day you log in! But just to be on the safe side, I’m going to activate the banned color cards in the comment area, so please keep it in check! 】

Jiang Mian: *frowns, reveals the cutest face Rapace can see, and makes the cutest voice Rapace can hear* I'm not thin at all! I just eat less…

Rapace: *couldn't bear it anymore, he fell on Jiang Mian like a bag of bricks, trapping him* Woo woo, you are the cutest, cutest——

Jiang Mian: *screamed in panic and cried* Ouch, I was crushed!

Rapace: *Immediately jumped up and looked everywhere for Jiang Mian* What what? ! *But he couldn't find it because Jiang Mian was hanging on his back and became as thin as paper*

Chapter 16 King of Fruit Cores (16)

Unlike Rapace, whose scales are dark and powerful, the Red Lady is like a swimming cloud. A thousand magnificent morning and dusk colors are projected on the female mermaid at the same time. The lightest scales are pink with white roses. Dizzy, the thickest fin film is as red as dripping blood. Her wild beauty is far beyond the limits of human imagination.

Ms. Red was already seriously injured when she was captured. Her struggle and resistance were fierce, but the extent was far less unfathomable than Rapace's - she couldn't even make a sound, let alone manipulate infrasound waves.

"...The result of successfully subduing her has injected arrogant confidence into the top management of the institute, and also laid the foundation for their contempt for you." Jiang Mian said hoarsely, "They are so happy, so happy that they forget everything, Shanda Carnivals and celebration banquets were held all night long, as if the blood in their veins had been replaced by champagne. They celebrated that humans had finally caught a living mermaid, and that they could finally test their wild conjectures and theories on her..."

His smile was sour: "Actually, Ms. Red is not the first mermaid that humans got, but she is the first living mermaid. In fact, the first mermaid that was salvaged was just the skeleton of the mermaid. The one named The remains of 'Adam' are like a veritable Pandora's Box, opening up too many people's ambitions."

Jiang Mian paused and explained to Rapace, who was paying full attention: "Adam is the first creature created by God in myths and legends. Pandora's Box is also a box filled with disasters and misfortunes in mythology... Just, hit For example, as long as you understand the meaning."

Rapace nodded knowingly and asked, "Human, what did you find?"

"Their biggest and most important discovery is the bone age of the remains." Jiang Mian took a deep breath, "512.8 years old, the difference from the actual biological age is not more than 2 years, and it is not natural old age... the lifespan of a mermaid, That was the only trigger.”

"The curse of wisdom," Rapace said.

Jiang Mian looked at him: "What?"

"The truth that circulates under the sea," Rapace said, "the curse of wisdom is to allow a fish to swim away from the cycle of eating and being eaten, and to seek something that is not one's own."

Jiang Mian smiled: "And we call it desire."

"Okay, easier." Rapace agreed.

"Therefore, although many people are seeking the secret of immortality - I don't know the progress of research in other places, but I am certain that Sigma Research Institute is the furthest along." Jiang Mian lowered his head and looked at the reflection on the water. Wave Light, "They used mermaid blood as the main material and developed a potion called 'Immortal Water'. It can not only cure diseases, but also supernaturally extend the life of dying people."

"Did you see the people up there?"

He pointed at the bright window, "The scholars there, the eldest old people, have all drank the so-called immortal water, so they can live to this day, six years later."

Jiang Mian said: "The Sigma Research Institute, as well as my adoptive father, used...Ms. Red's blood and flesh as the core resources for research experiments. Anesthetics are ineffective on mermaids, and some senior decision-makers also refuse to use neurotoxins, believing that they will 'Polluting the purity of the Immortal Water'... Therefore, the method they adopted was to dismember the body."

Jiang Mian's throat was dry and sore. The flashbacks in his mind made his teeth chatter and his nails dug deeply into his arms.

The violently twisted fish tail, the silent howls and screams, the severed fangs and claws, the harsh buzzing of the wheel cutter, the torn fin membrane like dried blood... The light in the laboratory is cold Bone-shattering, like a 10,000-watt Death Star.

[Because they are human beings, and you are not their kind. ] Rapace whispered.

"...I can't defend my adoptive father," Jiang Mian curled up, "I can't defend my incompetence and onlooker. Any description can only be a cover-up with rhetoric, and cannot describe the cruel truth. one."
