After being marked by a merman

Chapter 23 Fish Scales

Changing with each passing day, the vicissitudes of life probably refer to the feeling of seeing the scene in front of him, Zhonglihe thought, squatting down to pick up a bunch of Sophora japonica flowers on the ground, smelling them closely, he seemed to have returned to decades ago.

This season, his mother would take him to pick Sophora japonica flowers, holding a big cloth bag. The nearly hundred-year-old Sophora japonica tree at the foot of the mountain came to this season.

There are flowers on the tree and flowers on the ground, and there is a clear fragrance in the air. My mother always uses these Sophora japonica to make steamed Sophora japonica or Sophora japonica cake. After one bite, the fragrance of flowers is also in the mouth.

A flute sound brought Zhonglihe back to his senses, Sheng Lan took the Sophora japonica flower from his hand, touched his fingertips, Zhonglihe's hand retracted, and the bunch of flowers fell to the ground.

"Very fragrant..." Sheng Lan picked it up and smelled it.

Zhonglihe turned his back, the scent was still the same as before, but there was no shadow of 30 years ago.

Obviously, it used to be a small city with few buildings, but now it is densely covered with high-rise buildings. He guessed that his hometown would change, but he didn't expect it to change so much, and he couldn't find any trace of familiarity.

It made him lose, and the feeling of being abandoned by the world came to him again.

Sheng Lan looked at him silently, Zhong Lihe's face was expressionless, but his eyes were very complicated, dazed, fearful, and lost, Sheng Lan couldn't help but want to hug him.

He tentatively touched the back of his hand, but Zhonglihe didn't respond, so Shenglan took his hand.

Just like a kite with a string, no matter how high it flies, it will return to the ground. Zhonglihe finally came out of that complicated emotion.

"I want to visit the school," he said.

The two asked him where his former high school was. Now there are more high schools in the urban area. The high school that Zhonglihe attended had become the number one high school in the city. When they arrived by bus, they happened to catch up The upper class students leave school at noon.

Looking out of the window, Zhonglihe remembered that when he was in school, there were only three classes, from the first year of high school to the third year of high school, and now there seemed to be tens of thousands of students.

After all the students had left, Zhonglihe and Shenglan were about to go in, but the guards stopped them because they were not students.

Zhonglihe was lost for a moment, the two could only walk around the railing, when they reached a high wall with no one there, Sheng Lan suddenly hugged Zhonglihe by the waist, stepped on the wall and turned over, just like a martial arts master.

"You..." Zhonglihe was startled, and after entering, Shenglan let go of the hand on his waist.

"Let's go on." Sheng Lan said, his indifferent appearance made Zhong Lihe a little uncomfortable.

The campus is huge, and there are only five small bungalows on the ground. The flagpole is not much different from the previous ones. Zhonglihe walked quickly towards a big banyan tree.

He touched the somewhat rough trunk. He recognized this banyan tree. It was just behind the classroom and it was their only entertainment facility. He and his classmates liked to climb on the tree.

Zhonglihe was a little nostalgic, and there was still something left behind. He leaned against the tree, listening to the birdsong in the quiet campus, his thoughts raced.

Shenglan was silent from beginning to end, he felt a long-lost peace from Zhonglihe.

After wandering around the city for a day, Zhonglihe was a little tired at night. When Shenglan pressed against his back, Zhonglihe froze. He got up and unbuttoned his clothes, but Shenglan took his hand and said, "I'm tired." Go to sleep."

Zhonglihe shook his head expressionlessly. According to Shenglan, as long as he gives this thing enough breath in his stomach, it will come out faster. He doesn't want to waste time.

This so-called egg is no different from a bomb, it disgusts him and scares him, the clothes fell between his elbows, Sheng Lan suddenly hugged Zhong Lihe and asked, "You will never like me again, will you?"

His tone was rarely pitiful, Zhonglihe thought, but it was the mermaid's singing again, which confuses people's hearts.

"It's impossible for me to like a non-human being." Zhonglihe broke away from his hand and lay down. He just lay there, his eyes unmoved.

Sheng Lan climbed up, looked at him and said, "It turns out that falling in love with humans will turn into bubbles."

As the night passed, Zhonglihe's stomach suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, and he put his hand on the bulge, and it got bigger again.

Coming out of the quilt, Zhonglihe found that his lower abdomen was glowing, and it was still purple.

His expression was blank, and he was yelling the name of "Sheng Lan" indiscriminately. Sheng Lan, who had just bought breakfast, heard his yelling in the corridor, so he immediately entered the door.

"What's going on here?" Zhonglihe asked, holding his arm tightly, with panic in his eyes.

Sheng Lan put her hand on his belly, then squatted down, and put her ear on it.

"The egg is about to come out." Sheng Lan said.

Now, even Zhonglihe's lips turned pale. Although this egg is not as big as a woman's Shiyue's pregnancy, it is not small, and where did it come from?

Sheng Lan held his trembling hand and said, "I won't let anything happen to you, don't be afraid."

Zhong Lihe shook off his hands and went to bed, wrapped himself in a quilt and said, "It wasn't born by you, of course you are not afraid."

His tone was full of complaints, and Sheng Lan had nothing to say. The children of the mermaids accepted the inheritance of the mermaids in the eggshell. Parents communicate.

When he squatted down just now, the little shark used his only energy to ask him a question: Does mom not like me?

Sheng Lan's eyes were gloomy, maybe he and his child will become the only single-parent family in the history of Merman in the future.

"He just talked." Sheng Lan said while sitting by the bed.

Zhong Lihe's eyelashes trembled, not understanding what Sheng Lan meant, Sheng Lan pressed his hand on his stomach through the quilt and said, "The child asked if you don't like him."

These words made Zhonglihe stunned for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, he knocked off Shenglan's hand and said, "What nonsense are you talking about!"

Sheng Lan didn't have any excuses, he went to the bathroom, Zhonglihe on the bed was very upset, because he knew that Sheng Lan had no reason to lie to himself.

By chance, he put his palm on the place he didn't want to touch, and an unspeakable feeling surged into his heart from the palm of his hand.

Zhonglihe's throat choked up, feeling like he was about to cry, he quickly withdrew his hand, unwilling to think deeply, but he cared more and more.

At this time, two groups of people on the other side were looking for them. When Yu Bai and He Du took people to Sheng Lan's house, they found that someone had been here, and the floor-to-ceiling windows on the second floor had been opened by a laser.

It's just that when they searched, they found nothing but some garbage.

It was originally to extract Shenglan's DNA, but the specimens brought back were all Zhonglihe's. It couldn't be such a coincidence, Yu Bai and the others had to do it again.

"Is this person not even shedding skin flakes?" Zhang Meng asked strangely.

Yu Bai said: "All living creatures must carry out metabolism, and then look carefully."

"Yes!"

He Du arrived at the balcony on the second floor and was observing the glass that had been knocked off by the laser. When he turned around, the sun shone on the swimming pool, and the water surface was sparkling, but the reflection in one place was very dazzling.

Could it be broken glass?He Du went down from the second floor, picked up the net and fished for that place, and finally fished it out.

He Du took the thing out of the net, and Yu Bai happened to come over, saw the thing in his hand and said, "Fish scale?"

"Looks like it's not. It's impossible for ordinary fish to have this hardness." He Du replied.

Yu Bai looked at the swimming pool. There were some fallen leaves floating on the water in the pool. It was not obvious that fish had been raised. He said, "Take it back and have it tested."
