clown clown fish

Cao Mu had probably never cried before, Shen Dong had only heard him say "want to cry" before, but this was the first time he had actually seen Cao Mu cry.

He didn't know how old Cao Mu was or how many years he had lived, but Cao Mu's current posture seemed to be tossing away all the tears he had saved before.

Shen Dong didn't know how to comfort people, so he could only hug Cao Mu's head and keep touching it like coaxing a puppy, he almost said "a puppy doesn't cry and eats bones".

Fortunately, Cao Mu didn't cry for a long time, and suddenly ran into the bathroom.

Then there was a splashing sound from the water in the bathtub, and when Shen Dong followed in, he only saw the clownfish floating in the bathtub with a slanted body.

"Is it dead!" Shen Dong had never seen a clownfish tilting its body before, and was so frightened that it wanted to catch it.

But when his hand was about to touch it, the clownfish had twisted away and ran to the other side of the bathtub and continued to drift diagonally. Shen Dong was a little worried, so he stretched out his hand and pinched the clownfish's tail.

The clownfish twisted twice, and got out of his hand. While swimming to the other side of the bathtub, it spit out two bubbles.

"Have you never raised fish?" Hong Jie stood outside the bathroom door at some point.

"I raised goldfish before." Shen Dong glanced back at him, "What's the matter?"

"It's sleeping when it's crooked, not dead," Hong Jie explained to him, gesturing, "Look at it, it's just one piece, and it won't be able to keep standing upright when it's asleep. You probably haven't seen it before. A fish lying flat and sleeping at the bottom?"

"I haven't seen it before," Shen Dong breathed a sigh of relief, as long as there is no problem, if it is sleeping, let alone lying flat, it doesn't matter even if it is turned over, "They can't close their eyes, who knows when they are sleeping. "

"Shen Dong, I have something to tell you, don't hit me." Hong Jie leaned against the door and said.

"No guarantee, I have to listen first before deciding." Shen Dong turned around and sat on the edge of the bathtub. He wanted to ask Hong Jie a lot, but he couldn't figure it out for a while, and didn't know where to start. .

"Actually, it's nothing. I just want to say, you don't seem to be stuttering anymore?" Hong Jie retreated as he spoke, until he retreated to the balcony before saying the word stuttering.

"Huh? Don't I often stop stuttering now?" Shen Dong thought for a while.

"It's not the same. Usually I want to remind you that you don't stutter, but you basically stutter in the next sentence." Hong Jie stood on the balcony, "You don't stutter anymore."

Shen Dong sat by the bathtub and thought about it for a while. It seemed that it was true. Ever since he woke up, he had been speaking very naturally. under pressure.

"Is this the miracle that Liang Feng said?" Shen Dong walked out of the bath and poured himself a glass of water. Speaking of it this way, this miracle is really possible...

"No," Hong Jie gave him a negative answer, "That's not the case with the mermaid. I can't explain it to you. Let's put it this way, you have to have organic diseases for the mermaid to work."

Shen Dong stared at Hong Jie for a long time. Although he knew that Hong Jie was not as unreliable as he appeared on the surface, his inertial thinking made him still feel uncomfortable when he heard Hong Jie say such high-end words about organic diseases. very surprised.

"You mean she only cares about organic...sexual lesions?" Shen Dong uttered such learned words for the first time, and he almost couldn't figure out the order, just like him, he couldn't tell whether it was a herniated lumbar intervertebral disc or a lumbar intervertebral disc. Highlight the same.

"Organic! Lesion!" Hong Jie frowned, "It's not a venereal disease! Shen Dong, in fact, you went to the island after finishing junior high school, right?"

"I don't seem to have graduated from junior high school..." Shen Dong suddenly lost his voice halfway through speaking, turned around and sat on the sofa.

"So, it's not because of the mermaid that you stopped stuttering suddenly." Hong Jie was still standing on the balcony, "It's because of a knot in your heart. Did you dream about something, or did you remember something?"

Shen Dong narrowed his eyes: "Want to know?"

"Think about it." Hong Jie ran into the room, pulled up a chair and sat in front of Shen Dong.

"Keep thinking about it." Shen Dong smiled.

"...You are a real person," Hong Jie was taken aback for a moment, "I would know without telling you, you are talking in your sleep."

"I know you still ask?" Shen Dong still had a smile on his lips, but he didn't feel very good in his heart.

That's right, the things he saw and heard in the dream, the things that were so real that made it difficult for him to breathe, were indeed not dreams.

That was the past that he didn't want to remember, the past that he would never want to recall again.

When he first woke up, the feeling of despair and pain was unbearable. These things that he didn't remember experiencing at all but knew clearly that they had happened suddenly forced into his memory, and he had been living for so many years. His memories were all chaotic and false. He lay on the bed and didn't even want to move his fingers. If he wasn't worried about Cao Mu, he might still be dead on the bed right now.

"Then don't you want to know why you suddenly remembered it?" Hong Jie swayed on the back of the chair.

"I don't want to know," Shen Dong adjusted his posture and leaned on the sofa. The pain that had been calmed down because of being distracted by Cao Mu surged up again. In fact, even if Hong Jie didn't say anything, he felt that he had already Guessing the reason, "Is it because of Qin Yu?"

"So smart!" Hong Jie gave him a thumbs up.

"Thank you." Shen Dong pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled. He always thought that he still had his parents, but because of the indifference of his feelings, he no longer needed to contact him. Now he suddenly realized that everything was just wrapping himself up and not wanting to face the pain anymore. excuse when...

"Aren't you curious about Qin Yu?" Hong Jie studied the expression on his face, "Are you feeling uncomfortable now?"

"En." Shen Dong nodded.

"I can't see it."

"Because I'm not the son of Dahai." Shen Dong closed his eyes, who, like you, babbled and reacted exaggeratedly every day.

"Because you've been on the island for too long, if you hadn't met Cao Xiaoyu, you wouldn't have laughed." Hong Jie clicked his tongue and stopped talking.

The two sat in the living room in silence, half an hour later Shen Dong heard the sound of water coming from the bathroom, he jumped up and ran in.

"Aren't you asleep?" Hong Jie was dozing off with his chin resting on his hands, when Shen Dong jumped up suddenly and startled him.

"How is it?" Shen Dong rushed into the bathroom and saw Cao Mu leaning in the bathtub in a daze. He walked over and touched Cao Mu's face that was still dripping with water, "Do you feel uncomfortable?"

"No," Cao Mu shook his head, grabbed Shen Dong's hand and pulled it towards him, "Shen Dong, I'm not looking for my sister anymore."

"Hmm." Shen Dong squatted beside the bathtub, without asking Cao Mu why.

"I dreamed of her," Cao Mu looked at him, frowning, "She can't go back, she's not a clownfish anymore."

"That's it." Shen Dong said lightly, yes, Yu Xiaojia is no longer a clownfish with beautiful orange patterns, she has become a real mermaid.

"She wants to be with that person, and won't go back with me," Cao Mu lowered his eyes, looking at the water in the bathtub, "She doesn't want me to become like her either."

"Well, I see." Shen Dong hugged him and rubbed his head.

"Shen Dong."

"Ok?"

"Kiss me."

Shen Dong leaned over and pecked Cao Mu on the mouth.

"So stingy," Cao Mu was very dissatisfied, "Would it be exhausting to stick out your tongue?"

Shen Dong had no choice but to kiss him again, Cao Mu quickly greeted him, and nimbly inserted the tip of his tongue into his mouth.

"Didn't you let me stick out my tongue?" Shen Dong wiped his mouth.

"Isn't it because you're tired?" Cao Mu stood up from the bathtub contentedly.

Shen Dong squinted at him below: "You are not afraid of being tired."

"Don't you?" Cao Mu looked down at himself, then suddenly reached out and grabbed Shen Dong's pants, "It's the same."

"Put on clothes!" Shen Dong quickly slapped his hands away and roared.

Cao Mu's mood has calmed down a lot compared to before, but he still hasn't fully returned to his usual state, and he moves lazily and slowly when putting on clothes.

After getting dressed, he turned his head and saw Hong Jie who was sitting on the side shaking his chair for half an hour.

"I'm the captain!" Seeing him turning his head, Hong Jie immediately said, "Don't ask, if you don't remember it, don't remember it."

"Oh," Cao Mu nodded, I don't know if he remembered it or not, "Go and buy something and come back to eat, I'm so hungry."

Hong Jie jumped up from the chair in surprise: "You actually remember me?"

"You're not the one who goes shopping every day..." Cao Mu looked at him, "Who?"

"Forget it!" Hong Jie yelled, and angrily walked towards the door, "Shen Dong, pack up and leave quickly!"

"What about you?" Shen Dong asked.

"I'm leaving too, Dahai misses me!" Hong Jiela opened the door and ran out, shouting and running down the corridor, "The captain is coming back!"

Shen Dong quickly went over and closed the door.

"When are we going back?" Cao Mu asked Shen Dong.

It could be seen that Cao Mu was in a bad mood. His sister was fine, but she was no longer the sister he had cared about for so long. This loss was clearly written on Cao Mu's face.

At this time, what Cao Mu wants most is probably to return to the sea he is familiar with and close to.

But Shen Dong didn't answer right away, this place is already very close to his home, although the memories of the past were too painful for Mrs. Tai, the idea of ​​going back to have a look couldn't be suppressed no matter what.

On one side is Cao Mu who anxiously wants to go back, and on the other side is himself who strongly wants to see his relatives.

Shen Dong felt a headache.

"Cao Mu," Shen Dong hesitated for a long time, "Did I tell you that this place is very close to my home?"

"Well," Cao Mu responded and turned to look at him, "Do you miss your parents?"

The words "Mom and Dad" made Shen Dong's heart twitch, and he was speechless.

"I heard you call mom when you were awake." Cao Mu put his arms on his shoulders, hugged him into his arms, and rubbed his hair like him, "then go Let's go home."

"I called mother?" Shen Dong was surprised.

"Called." Cao Mu nodded and continued to rub his hair.

"Don't knead, you are making dough." Shen Dong pulled his hand away, feeling that he was not used to being comforted by Cao Mu's arms.

"It's very comfortable when you rub my hair." Cao Mu rubbed his head, "Is it uncomfortable?"

"No, you're a child."

"I'm not a child, my sister said... I've grown up." When Cao Mu mentioned his sister, he felt a little depressed again.

"Yes, you are not a child," Shen Dong hurriedly comforted, leaned on Cao Mu, buried his face in the socket of his shoulder and rubbed it, and then said casually, "How can you be so hard even when you hit him?" Small……"

Before he finished speaking, he almost bit his tongue, what are you talking about!

"Hard?" Cao Mu was stunned, and after a while, he probably realized that he laughed alone for a long time.

When Hong Jie came back with three packed lunches, Cao Mu's mood obviously improved. Although judging from his reaction, he still didn't think about the captain, but he still expressed his gratitude to the young passer-by who came back with the packed lunches. grateful.

"Thank you, do you want to eat too?" Cao Mu first took out one, put it in front of Shen Dong, and counted the remaining boxes.

"Crap, of course I want to eat it! It's fine if you don't recognize me and ask me to buy food, but you don't plan to let me eat after you buy it?" Hong Jie twisted his face while holding a pair of chopsticks.

"Then you can eat." Cao Mu took a copy and handed it to him.

"I bought it with my money! Of course I eat it!" Hong Jie took the lunch box and sat on the sofa to watch TV. "I thought a needle would change his memory a bit."

"Acupoints?" Shen Dong was about to pick up some vegetables, he raised his head abruptly after hearing these words, and raised his voice, "What did you inject Cao Mu with? What did you do!"

"It's a long story..." Hong Jie lowered his head and licked the rice in his mouth.

"Say!" Shen Dong slammed his chopsticks on the table.

The sound of roaring and falling was a bit too loud, and Cao Mu who was eating was so scared that he choked. Hong Jie's lunch box almost fell to the ground. In fact, Shen Dong himself was also frightened by the movement he made, jumping on the chair. jumped.

"Why do you have such a big reaction?" Hong Jie put down the lunch box, "Do you know how Yu Xiaojia became a magic mermaid?"

"Magic Sound Mermaid?" Shen Dong was stunned, what kind of title was this, "I don't know."

"I don't know," Hong Jie said, looking at Shen Dong's not-so-good face, and sighed, "I really don't know, I just know where destruction can prevent Cao Xiaoyu from becoming like that."

"Destroy?" Shen Dong's voice changed, he threw down his chopsticks and rushed to Cao Mu's side, opened his clothes and searched all over his body, "What did you destroy!"

"How do you ask an illiterate to explain this to another illiterate!" Hong Jie was also anxious, standing up and gesticulating with his arms, "It's like a water pipe with many water pipes connected to many people's homes. Feng just put some chili sauce into the main water pipe, then the water in these people's homes will be spicy, understand?"

"Yes, it really is the illiterate who communicates in an illiterate way." Shen Dong frowned and stared at him, "Then what?"

"I'm talking about an injection, which is to make a hole in front of the pipe that Liang Feng is going to attack, so that the water can avoid that section." Hong Jie gestured until he was sweating, "Understood?"

"Basically," Shen Dong didn't care much about what Liang Feng did, "I want to know how it will hurt Cao Mu after you finish it like this!"

"Looking at it now, there is no harm," Hong Jie heaved a sigh of relief, and sat back on the sofa, "Shen Dong, you have a bad temper."

"Looking at it now?" Shen Dong walked in front of him, "That means you weren't sure before, right?"

"Yes, so I don't dare to use it casually. I only use it when I have no choice." Hong Jie subconsciously raised his hand to protect his head, but he shrank back, probably because he was afraid that Shen Dong would beat him if he was in a hurry.

But Shen Dong just sighed and went back to the table to continue eating.

Yu Xiaojia's singing made them all fall asleep. He didn't even know how long he had been asleep and how he got back here from that house. It was too easy for Mu to do something.

In this situation, Hong Jie took a risk, no matter how bad his temper was, he couldn't do anything.

"Why did Liang Feng do this? For money?" Shen Dong couldn't figure it out.

"It's too long to talk about this matter," Hong Jie said while eating, "I don't know very well, I only care about the sea and my boat."

Shen Dong didn't speak, he picked out the meat from his own dish and put it in Cao Mu's lunch box.

"Is this edible?" Cao Mu squeezed the lunch box.

"...Why do you think this is edible?" Shen Dong was a little speechless.

"This is a bit like the popcorn that day." Cao Mu broke off a small piece from the lid of the lunch box, held it in his hand and studied it, and finally put it in his mouth and licked it. "It's tasteless."

"This can't be eaten." Shen Dong sighed.

"Like popcorn?" Hong Jie also broke off a piece, put it in his mouth, chewed it, then frowned and threw it away, "Qin Yu has a brother named Qin Yi, and Qin Yi is a genius."

"Ah?" Shen Dong didn't react immediately.

"The younger brother of a genius is prone to get a genius's disease." Hong Jie pointed to his head, "Qin Yu has a serious illness here, just like Radiant Man, when he has a headache, it will affect others, and he won't live long."

"Radiator?"

"I started it casually, and I don't know the details. Anyway, Yu Xiaojia, the magic voice, can make him feel better, so Qin Yu Xiaojia...in order to treat Qin Yu, I made it with Liang Feng. I won't do anything else. knew."

Shen Dong picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and couldn't put it into his mouth for a long time. Hong Jie's words made him a little bit overwhelmed.

"He lied to my sister?" Cao Mu looked at Hong Jie with shock written all over his face.

"Who knows," Hong Jie waved his hand, continued to eat, and said vaguely after stuffing a mouthful of food, "Qin Yi originally wanted to send Yu Xiaojia away, but he didn't decide the beginning of this kind of thing. "

"But why...my sister would be willing..." Cao Mu was still shocked.

"Let me ask you." Hong Jie ate very happily. He almost ate up a box of lunch in a few bites. He ate up the rest of the food before looking at Cao Mu. "Shen Dong wants you Become a mermaid, would you like to?"

"Shut up!" Shen Dong dropped his chopsticks.

"...Yes." Cao Mu looked at Shen Dong.

"I don't want to!" Shen Dong gritted his teeth.

"I'm full," Hong Jie stuffed the lunch box back into the plastic bag, "I'm leaving in the afternoon, I've booked a ticket."

"Where are you going?"

"The sea is calling me, and the crew is expecting me," Hong Jie clenched his fist and tapped on his chest, "I belong to the sea..."

"Shen Dong and I are going to his house." Cao Mu interrupted him.
