Be a mermaid after 1000 years

The Municipal Institute of Surveying and Mapping sent an old map from 25 years ago. Blanche found the Bosigen area, pointed to a red factory sign and said happily: "Yes! This is here, the Laerz factory."

After he said this, Director Cecil also remembered something. The Laerz Machinery Manufacturing Plant is just a medium-sized factory. It is famous because 22 years ago, this factory caused an extremely serious fire due to poor management. , the factory area is located in a remote place, the fire was not effectively controlled, and it also caused a devastating explosion. However, the media quickly shifted their direction and began to pay attention to other hot topics, and this major accident gradually faded out of people's sight and hearing.

In fact, no matter how sensational the accident was at the time, there was only a residual memory in the minds of the Duke and the police chief. After all, it was more than 20 years ago. Son, Blanche will think of it because his father, the old Duke, is secretly responsible for the aftermath of this matter. As for why an ordinary factory would use the Duke to deal with the aftermath, Blanche vaguely knows a little about the story behind it .

He went out and made a phone call, but when he came back, his expression was more solemn than before. After pondering for a long time, Blanche still ordered: "Let's start to act, the situation is still unclear, first determine the whereabouts and safety of Madam, and be careful in everything!"

Blanche said this sentence not to Director Cecil, but to his most capable officers. Of course, he himself is the commander in chief of this operation.

"Bernie, you stay here on standby, and report to me immediately if there is any abnormality."

"Yes, my lord!"

After Hodge and others made fun of Morris, what should they do? Whether it is a successful businessman or a pioneer of elegant art, no matter how popular a celebrity is, it is not enough to mobilize the entire police force, unless he is a person in power. It is no secret that the personal information of a popular fried chicken like Morris has long been a secret. Even his annual income last year was the subject of media hype, so today's random inspection must have nothing to do with him.

"Boss, what should we do with this kid? It seems a pity to kill him. After all, he is a rich man." Ula asked with a playful smile.

Li Miaowei's heart tightened, and he looked back and forth between the two. If something happened to Morris, he would feel guilty for the rest of his life.

Gray Wolf didn't answer, each line has its own way, mermaid traders are the most taboo to engage in ransom, Wu La is a fledgling, as long as it is money, he wants to make money, but Gray Wolf understands that if the money crosses the line, it is easy to capsize in the gutter. Since this Motan man can't be taken away or kept, let him be left here to fend for himself. When they return to Ankad City, they will have to wait until the Year of the Monkey.

"Ula, don't worry about it, come and work!" Hodge has been with Gray Wolf for the longest time, so he knows this truth.

Li Miaowei saw that these people didn't make a statement right away, so he made up his mind. The longer the delay, the better for them. Even if His Excellency the Duke doesn't care about him any more, he must act like a new wife. Li Miaowei didn't think the duke would be so vile. He had a terrible personality, but in Li Miaowei's opinion, he was more pleasing to the eye than most nobles. The best explanation is that Li Miaowei felt that the Duke would send someone to rescue him. Well, even if he left it alone, Didi should call the police. As for the three mermaids, the police in the capital city will never treat them like three dried salted fish, right? Li Miaowei hoped that the situation shown on TV where the police car arrived after an accident would not happen to any of them.

Gray Wolf continued to check Hodge's cell phone, but found no information about the mermaid. It seemed that it would take a while to check this kind of little noble in the corner. He took out the cigarette case, saw that it was empty, and threw it away. On the ground, he found a whole bag in his jacket pocket, and gray wolf lit one and blew mist at Li Miaowei for a while, wondering if he was getting older, so his courage was getting smaller and smaller.

Claire walked past him with her head down, something fleeting in her eyes.

"What's your last name?" Gray Wolf asked Li Miaowei.

"Nelson." Li Miaowei answered very smoothly. Didi would often gossip with him. Nelson's family has a black-haired boy who is about the same age as Zoe. If they could delay a little longer, if they knew that she was the Duchess of Hernand, the situation might be even worse.

Li Miaowei thought to himself, maybe the lion-masked people are very friendly, and seeing them is better than seeing nothing at all.

"You have to know that those who lie will always be punished." Gray Wolf, smoking a cigarette, entered Nelson into the phone, and sent it to the original address.

At this time, Harold had already inflated the plastic pool. Several big men poured buckets of drinking water into it while complaining about their hunger. Li Miaowei took the initiative to run over to help. The mermaid is also dying.

Morris was still calm. After Hodge revealed his identity, the young man looked at Li Miaowei with full eyes. It was very radiant. I didn't expect Zoe's attitude to be very flat. There was neither a jumping spot nor a trace of eagerness in his eyes, and he was quickly attracted by the inflatable pool. Morris' eyes darkened.

Li Miaowei said he was helping, but he didn’t put much effort into it. Beiman threw out his cigarette butt and scolded him: “Damn it, we moved so hard that we ended up using it as bathwater for you. Serve you first." As soon as his temper came up, he made a gesture to hit him, but Li Miaowei hid back and jumped into the pool.

Seeing that he had already melted into a fish tail, Beiman threw the things away and ran to eat. He chewed the half-eaten bacon sausage in his mouth, and called his companions: "Don't mess with it, rest for a while."

Gray Wolf glared at him, "If you want to ruin it, you won't be able to sell it for a good price. I'll be the first to settle the score with you. If you don't rely on these mermaids, everyone is still standing outside enjoying the wind. Wait for this batch of goods to be sold. You had a good time."

"Hey, boss, I'll just scare him."

Gray Wolf put down his phone, went over to grab a piece of cold fried chicken and ate it, Harold and Ulla also came over one after another, Hodge carried a little mermaid into the pool, Claire picked up another, Li Miaowei hurriedly After taking them over, these mermaid mongers were too irresponsible. They built a decent pool, but the water in it just covered the tail fin. If you want to wet the skin all over your body, you have to turn over in it constantly. He thinks I was like a fish fillet waiting to be put into the pan, and I had to add some slurry in advance.

Hodge saw what he was thinking, and said calmly: "Don't think there is too little water, this is not your home, just let it go, if the police checkpoints are not removed, you have to stay here. Here, the two little ones are handed over to you, show them to me carefully."

"Hodge, stop talking nonsense with him, these nobles are hypocritical, come and eat quickly." Beman yelled.

The legs of the two little mermaids came into contact with the water, and immediately turned into fish tails, but they were still motionless, even breathing very weakly. Li Miaowei poured water on them with his hands, the key is the gills behind the ears, Didi said that the long-term lack of water in the mermaid's gills will cause respiratory failure. Li Miaowei's neck and back are in terrible pain at the moment, let alone the two immature juvenile mermaids. He asked the two children to lie on their sides , Turn it over from time to time, try to make their gills soak in the water.

Seeing this scene, Harold was amazed: "I didn't expect this mermaid noble to be kind."

Morris saw that his complexion was getting worse, and asked concerned: "Zoe, are you okay? Is there something wrong?"

Li Miaowei really felt uncomfortable all over his body. The stabbing pain in his head made him want to vomit. Just now he just wanted to know the situation of the two children, but unexpectedly the burden that came with it far exceeded expectations. At the same time It also shows that the situation of the two little mermaids is very bad. What puzzled Li Miaowei was that the negative emotions they conveyed were very clear at the beginning, as if someone was shouting at him, and he knew exactly what they were shouting, but at the moment it was painful. It rushed over like a tide, but he couldn't understand much clear meaning from it. Everything became chaotic. His mood seemed to be trapped in a sticky black mist, and he suppressed the pain but couldn't find a breakthrough.

He shook his lips and asked, "What's the matter with these two children? You, what medicine did you give them?"

Beiman turned around and sneered, and said disapprovingly: "The children are so annoying to be noisy."

"It is a powerful hallucinogen. Excessive doses will cause damage to various organs, especially if it is applied to children, it will seriously affect their mental development, and some will become deaf and dumb. In other words, wait for these two If the child wakes up, he might already be stupid." Morris frowned slightly, looking at him intently.

"How do you know?" Li Miaowei became more and more at a loss. When he asked himself, there was only a buzzing in his ears. He seemed to be isolated in an airtight glass enclosure, with only him and two little mermaids inside. , he couldn't see other people clearly, and Morris became illusory and distorted in his eyes.

"I used to study medicine, but later found that I didn't have much interest, so I switched to music. These two children have purple lips and yellow oily secretions from the corners of their eyes. They are typical symptoms of poisoning. Zoe, you look very bad. Listen For me, put them down, go soak in the water for a while, relax, don't think about anything, you see, you can't help them, you can't help anyone now..."

"Why do you want to do this?" Li Miaowei muttered to himself.

Beman wiped his oily fingers on his trousers, belched and said: "Because buyers don't need them to be too smart, and they don't need them to be eloquent, so it's easier to keep an eye on them, alas, I said Ulla, and I didn't buy it." Wine? Why do you keep forgetting things, kid?"

"Claire said he..."

Gray Wolf raised his hand to stop Ula from continuing to talk, and anyone who was a little more flexible at this time could already see that there was something wrong with the mermaid.

Morris kept persuading him, but Li Miaowei seemed not to hear clearly, but also seemed to understand everything. He sat there staggering and said incoherent words: "Such a small child, how pitiful, the heart of my parents, Who said I can't help, I can, I can, what should I do? Well... My head hurts, don't worry... Li Miaowei, please fight, don't be so useless... Don't worry, um ...It's okay, you will be fine soon...It's so uncomfortable..."

"What is this guy muttering all the time?"

"Shhhhhhhhh!"

"Oh! My God, look what's that?"

Everyone's eyes widened, thin air masses appeared around Li Miaowei's body, and those air vortices gradually formed a complete sphere, enclosing the two little mermaids inside.

"This is... magic wave!" Hodge saw the trick.

Gray Wolf was both excited and amazed, not to mention whether this mermaid is an adult, even if it is an adult, would a freshwater mermaid have such obvious magic performance, and what kind of magic is it?Gray Wolf is just a commoner, he doesn't know anything about water, fire, ice edges, etc., but the air mass is extremely gentle, and the air flow overflowing from it just feels refreshing to the body, which is obviously not offensive magic. The man's iron-gray eyes revealed a frenzied light, and this mermaid might be able to sell for a sky-high price.

Li Miaowei trembled all over, beads of sweat rolled down his pale face into the pool, his body went limp, and he fell backwards without warning, and the air mass disappeared immediately.

"Zoe!" Morris called out.

Gray Wolf took a step forward and helped him up from the water, "Quick, Hodge, let's see how he is doing!"

Hodge checked carefully and replied: "It's okay, I just passed out from exhaustion, but Gray Wolf, look at those two little guys."

The two little mermaids had ruddy complexions and steady breathing. Even though they were not awake, they were in very good condition, and the little mermaids had glazed luster on their tails.

Beman ran over and sighed, "Wow! Awesome, Hodge, what kind of magic is this?"

"If I'm not mistaken, this should be a healing magic."

"Healing type? How is it possible? Didn't it mean that only golden mermaids can control this kind of magic? This little guy is just a freshwater type mermaid." Gray Wolf put Li Miaowei back, and poured several buckets of water into the pool. What kind of magic, this mermaid is now his cash cow.

"No, Gray Wolf, I don't know if you have heard a legend about mermaids?"

"I'm not interested in those. Your ancestors have a bit of noble blood, so you know more than us."

"Well, it was indeed told by the old man in the previous family. Anyone who has been to the temple knows that there are golden fish scales on the legs of the statue of the holy god. It is said that the blood of the holy god flows more or less in the mermaid clan. He dotes on them , gave them beauty and magic, pleasure and comfort, as well as kindness and purity, but he prefers the sea mermaid, the sea is the mother of the Holy God, and he was born there."

"and then?"

"It is said that the more focused and pure a mermaid is, the more advanced magic he can perform. For example, the healing magic. Several great healing magicians in Motan's history all have a fraternal and broad heart. You know the gray wolf, the current mermaid nobles don’t have those qualities, so it’s normal that they don’t know healing magic.”

"Legends can't be true." Gray Wolf smacked his lips, lifted Li Miaowei's chin to look at him, and said: "However, looking at this little guy now, he is indeed a bit different, okay, I Will find you a more tempered buyer."

Beman laughed loudly, "Hodge's story is really good, hey, boss, now we're rich, right? It's worth celebrating, Ulla, get the wine...Damn it, you kid forgot to buy the wine."

Just as Ula was about to argue, Claire handed over a bag and said calmly, "I bought the wine."

Beiman curled his lips boredly, took a look, and was amused again, "Wow, this is good wine, Ulla, find a glass."

Gray Wolf usually seldom touches alcohol before a deal is over, but now he is really happy, and he also drank a little. The others were very excited when they thought of the money they were about to get, and they had already exchanged glasses for a while.

"Don't drink too much, it's over." Gray Wolf got up and looked at his phone, but there was no news yet.

"Claire, why don't you drink?" Hodge put down the cup in his hand.

"I don't like drinking." Claire picked up a piece of bread and gnawed it slowly.

Beiman dismissed it and said: "Tch, you don't smoke or drink, your life is really boring."

Blanche led people to scatter in the hidden places outside the factory. Several thermal sensors observed from multiple angles and came to the same conclusion. There was no one inside, but they found the stolen Jushi truck.

"Could Gray Wolf and his gang have left the car here on purpose, and the man sneaked away." Someone speculated.

"No, it's shady here. It rained a few days ago. The ground is not dry yet. I checked the nearby traces just now. They didn't come out after they went in." The person in charge of the reconnaissance came back to report.

"There must be a secret passage in the factory. Jeffrey and Dewey will go in with me, and the others will be on standby at any time." After speaking, Blanche took out his gun, and after a few ups and downs, he disappeared, and the two men whose names were called followed closely behind. thereafter.

The three walked around the factory, but found nothing unusual. Blanche went back to a workshop he had been to before, and looked around carefully. There were several such workshops in the factory area.

"My lord, is there anything special here?" Jeffrey asked.

Blanche couldn't tell, he always felt that he had overlooked something, "Perhaps it is the most complete one, you two look carefully, pay attention to the joint between the wall and the floor, maybe you will find something."

"Yes!"

A few minutes later, Blanche still found nothing.

"My lord, go and have a look elsewhere."

Blanche took a few steps, then stopped again, "Wait, did you smell anything?"

"Smell?" Dewey sniffed and replied, "No, I didn't smell anything except a little bit of engine oil."

"Yes, it is engine oil. This factory was scrapped more than 20 years ago. The machine tools are rusted due to wind and rain. How could there be an oil smell? Check those machine tools."

Soon, Jeffrey noticed, "My lord, here." He touched the card slot of a machine tool with his hand, except for dust and rust spots, his fingers were shiny with oil, "It seems that not long ago someone Grease has been added here."

Blanche walked over, not paying attention to Geoffrey's fingers. He squatted on the ground, twisting a little green powder from among the rubble and rubble.

"Dewey, call a few more people in, and the others guard the exit."

As Beiman drank, the glass slipped from his hand and fell to the ground, the wine spilled everywhere, Beiman swayed, and his body fell on the cushion.

Ula smirked, and pushed him with her hands, "Hey, the boss told you to drink less, and you still drink like this, get up quickly, Hey, what's the matter with you, Beiman?" A little black blood, he was out of breath.

Immediately afterwards, Harold also fell silently on the ground, and Ulla's limbs were cold, and she slowly withered away.

"You poisoned!" Hodge stared at Claire, reached out to touch his lower back, only to find that the weapon he inserted behind his back had turned into a combination wrench at some point.

"Are you looking for this?" Claire took out a gun from his pocket. He was still sitting there gnawing bread slowly, and a bright smile suddenly appeared on his cold face. Creepy.

Hodge turned back to look at Gray Wolf.

"Don't look for it, he just went to the next door to pee, and he died there."

"Why?" Huo Qi realized something, pointed at Li Miaowei, and said, "It's because of him, the boss wants to own it!"

Claire grinned and said nothing, his young face looked a bit innocent, from just now to now, he seemed to have become a completely different person.

"Hodge, in fact, I really admire you. You have always been low-key and cautious. You didn't smoke the cigarettes I gave out, and you just touched your lips when I bought wine. People like this can always live a long time. Unfortunately, the boss said that a living Do not stay……"

Hodge didn't wait for him to finish speaking, jumped up and ran, Claire put the last bite of bread into his mouth, said "it's really unpalatable", then raised his hand and shot Hodge to death at the door of the stone room.

"It's easy to handle, next time assign me a difficult task."

Claire snapped his fingers and was extremely satisfied with his performance. At this time, the mobile phone that Gray Wolf threw on the mat flickered, and a message came in, "What?" He opened it and smiled, "Ha, It turns out that this mermaid's surname is not Nelson, so I know he's lying..." Halfway through Claire's words, the smile gradually disappeared from his face.

"Damn it! What can we do?"
