bride as a paranoid mermaid

The deep taciturnity has reached a staggering level, he can not say a word for ten days, and after eating, he sinks back into the water and closes his eyes to rest.

No matter what Xia Shenlan said or how much she said, she was completely unmoved, and almost never paid any attention to Xia Shenlan.

Although Xia Shenlan was a little helpless, she persisted.

Wanting to obtain information is on the one hand, on the other hand, he also has an indescribable affection for Shen Shen.

Personality will affect appearance to a certain extent, deep face is a little round, eyes are also big, at first glance it looks like a bluffing and cute junior.

It's a pity that he met Lu Jianshen, experienced many things, and finally became this sleepy.

Xia Shenlan talked to him so much, hoping to help him to some extent.

Seven or eight days passed in a flash, Shen Shen still didn't get better, but Xia Shenlan's injuries almost healed up.

This speed of recovery is obviously not normal.

Xia Shenlan guessed that this might have something to do with the mermaid. After all, he can live without a heart now, so something must have happened to his body.

During this period, Xia Shenlan never saw Lu Jianshen once, and he was only allowed to come out during meal time every day. Unless Lu Jianshen came to see him specially, the two had no chance to meet at all.

Xia Shenlan wanted to see Lu Jianshen, but she just wanted to ask about Jiang Chenxing's situation. He left before he had time to ask Lu Jianshen that day, and he never got another chance after that.

In addition, Xia Shenlan didn't get nothing, he was lucky to see a mermaid riot——

At noon on the seventh day, Xia Shenlan had just delivered the meal to Shenshen. On the way back, the alarm in the laboratory suddenly sounded, and red lights flashed everywhere, indicating that something important had happened.

The person guarding Xia Shenlan used the headset to ask the other guards what happened. Xia Shenlan couldn't hear what the person in the headset answered, but the person guarding him was too surprised and subconsciously repeated: "Mermaid riot?"

Xia Shenlan was surprised, she was stunned for a moment, and after realizing it, she immediately ran to the hall where the mermaid was locked up.

He didn't even think about what he was going to do in the past, he just wanted to rush there, maybe he could get some clues.

Waiting passively has really become a canary trapped by Lu Jianshen.

"Are you crazy? Stop!" The people behind tried to stop Xia Shenlan, but seeing that Xia Shenlan didn't intend to stop, they even fired bullets to warn Xia Shenlan.

The warning bullet almost missed Xia Shenlan, but Xia Shenlan turned a deaf ear and ran to the hall desperately.

At this moment, he felt very clearly that his physical strength had improved. From what seemed to be such a long distance, he seemed to reach the end of the corridor without any effort, as light as a fish swimming in the water.

The moment he stepped into the hall with one foot, he saw a mess of blood and corpses. At the same time, his ears caught a sharp sound of breaking wind, perhaps a bullet, hitting him.

Xia Shenlan knew that he should dodge, but she couldn't move her legs no matter what.

There seemed to be a lot of thoughts in his head, dragging down his body heavily, although he himself didn't understand what those chaotic thoughts were.

At this critical moment, Xia Shenlan was dragged to the ground by someone.

"Ding--"

The bullets smashed into the solid wall, making a piercing noise.

Xia Shenlan only felt that the sky was spinning suddenly, and when he came back to his senses, he had been pulled to the ground, and the bullet almost grazed his thigh.

It was a red mermaid that pulled him away, and it was under his body at the moment.

The mermaid has a painful expression, and from time to time even makes a shrill cry, as if it is experiencing some great pain.

But his eyes were fixed on Xia Shenlan all the time, and it seemed that he was only looking at something else through Xia Shenlan.

Xia Shenlan had no time to explore why the red-haired mermaid, who had never met before, wanted to save him, or why the mermaids always looked at the air behind him, and asked eagerly: "What do you want to tell me?"

With eyes like the mermaid's, she must have something to tell him.

The red-haired mermaid didn't say anything, and grabbed the back of Xia Shenlan's head, forcing him to look in a certain direction.

It looked like an ordinary wall, but for some reason, the mermaids seemed to be particularly obsessed with it, forcibly bumping into some uneven marks.

Either there's something in that wall, or there's something behind it.

Xia Shenlan wanted to stand up, but there was only one thought in his mind that absolutely dominated - what was so special about that wall.

However, just as he straightened his upper body, his neck suddenly hurt, and an irresistible drowsiness hit him, and Xia Shenlan fell back powerlessly.

He tried his best to turn his head, and from the corner of his eyes, he saw Lu Jianshen striding over.

Closing his eyes, he saw the deep sea, the dark deep sea.

The icy sea water is suddenly no longer icy cold, but cool and gentle like silk.

The sea water supported his body, making him lighter than ever before, and swimming became an effortless thing.

The body swayed slightly, and the sea water slid past him, pushing him forward in turn.

Xia Shenlan swam forward in confusion, forgetting why he suddenly appeared here, and didn't know where his destination was.

After swimming aimlessly like this for a long time, Xia Shenlan saw a white circular building appearing in front of her, which looked particularly abrupt on the bottom of the sea.

He looked back suspiciously, and inadvertently glanced at his legs—his legs were gone, replaced by a golden fish tail.

Xia Shenlan shuddered and opened her eyes suddenly.

There was still a white ceiling above his head, and Xia Shenlan finally remembered that he was still locked up in the laboratory by Lu Jianshen, and it was impossible for him to appear in the sea.

For a moment, he felt a little lost again. Compared with his current situation, he might as well have turned into a fish and wandered around in the sea.

Xia Shenlan sighed, looked down at her legs, her pupils suddenly shrank, and a golden fish tail was reflected in them.

"Fuck!"

Xia Shenlan gasped, and sat up suddenly from the bed. The movement was so violent that her back hurt like it was about to burst.

"You're awake..." A cool voice came from beside him.

Xia Shenlan turned her head mechanically, saw Lu Jianshen's face, and immediately understood that the scene just now was also a dream.

He fell back on the bed slowly, his head swelled up as if it was going to explode.

"Although I don't like you very much, I have to admit that you really have a special charm."

Lu Jianshen was here to watch him wake up, definitely not just to praise him.

Xia Shenlan asked directly: "What do you want to say?"

"It's enviable that someone desperately protects you."

"If you are so envious, I can give you this blessing."

"No need, when I was young, a wandering monk gave me a fortune telling me that my fortune in this life is poor, so don't force what you can't keep."

"But you don't seem to be listening to him."

Looking back on Lu Jianshen's actions, wasn't he insisting from beginning to end?

Lu Jian shook his head with a deep smile, "Knowing fate but not accepting fate, isn't it the commonality of human beings? Knowing that nothing can be changed, but always unwilling to give up, maybe you will end up dead in the end."

At first glance, it sounds like a prophecy he made to himself, but it seems that it can be applied to anyone.

Xia Shenlan thought over and over again what Lu Jianshen said, trying to find some clues that he had overlooked.

No, nothing, he couldn't think of anything wrong.

Xia Shenlan couldn't think of anything, and was a little irritable. He was afraid of missing any important information.

Just when he couldn't restrain himself from asking something, he saw Lu Jianshen's indifferent face, and suddenly remembered that the topic that Lu Jianshen had raised was not his concern.

He has been wanting to see Lu Jianshen these days because of another problem——

"How is Jiang Chenxing?"

Lu Jianshen tilted his head innocently: "Didn't I already tell you?"

"when will you……"

Just halfway through his speech, Xia Shenlan suddenly stopped. These days, he and Lu Jianshen had only met twice. The last time Lu Jianshen absolutely never said anything about Jiang Chenxing's situation, that is to say, the answer to him was what Lu Jianshen just said.

——"I know I can't change anything, but I always refuse to give up. Maybe I will end up dead in the end."

This sentence refers to...Jiang Chenxing?

It was as if something had exploded in my head, and my ears were buzzing, and I couldn't hear or see anything.

He kept thinking of Jiang Chenxing, but those images scattered like quicksand, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't catch them.

All those things about Jiang Chenxing were sliced ​​away from his soul by an invisible knife.

He once sent his grandfather away, and now he is going to send Jiang Chenxing away.

Xia Shenlan was so painful that she almost vomited the acid in her stomach.

He suddenly remembered a sentence he had read: "Of course what others try to hide is what you don't want to see. Therefore, in pursuit of other people's secrets, you must bear the consequences of knowing the secrets."

But most people are always very obsessed with the truth.

Is this attachment an attachment to the truth itself, or a desire to prove it?get what?

Xia Shenlan had selfish intentions, that's why it was so hard for him to accept the cruel consequences.

Because he was attracted to the mermaid, when he first realized that Jiang Chenxing might have lied to him, he hoped to find out the truth, as if this would alleviate some of his guilt.

If I had known the final result would be like this...

Xia Shenlan has never felt so regretful for a moment.

The emotion of regret is like countless ants biting his blood vessels and heart, making him wish to tear his flesh and die in pain.

At this moment, Lu Jianshen grabbed Xia Shenlan's chin and forced him to raise his head, almost cruelly indifferent.

"It's your turn to answer. What did they say to you when the mermaids rioted?"

Xia Shenlan's mind was in a state of chaos, she didn't have any thought of thinking about it, she replied blankly: "He didn't say anything..."

"Then what did you see?"

"A wall..."

Lu Jianshen narrowed his eyes slightly, and let go of Xia Shenlan.

Xia Shenlan slowly regained some reason, and asked without giving up: "Jiang Chenxing really..."

Lu Jianshen ruthlessly broke his luck: "Every word I said is true."

The author has something to say: What others are trying to cover up is naturally what you don't want to see.Therefore, if you seek other people's secrets, you must bear the consequences of knowing the secrets.
