After becoming a mermaid, I'm a salty fish

Gu Yu's first mission was accomplished exceptionally well, catching the fugitive and preventing him from causing more damage.

The organization specially praised Gu Yu, and at the same time solemnly told him that he must pay attention to his own safety, and when he was on a mission, he must arrest the prisoner under the premise of protecting himself.

Gu Yu's situation this time was a sudden accident.

A mission operation is usually divided into three parties, the main attack force, the rear assistance, and the outflanking to fill in the gaps.

Interns generally observe and study in the back of the safe area.But Gu Yu's mission this time was unlucky to encounter a fish that slipped through the net pretending to be a hostage. He quickly fled down the mountain when the missionary was busy dealing with other prisoners and was not wary of him.

Lin Zhou was keenly aware of the problem, and immediately followed the traces to catch up with Gu Yu, so he caught Gu Yu in time.

Gu Yu made a statement afterwards, detailing the situation at that time. The fugitive attacked him first and tried to take him as a hostage, so he had to fight back.

Although, he didn't control the speed well when he counterattacked, and almost killed him.

In the interstellar era, although human rights are concerned, the death penalty has not been abolished.For extremely vicious criminals, they believe that criminals have voluntarily given up their human rights when committing serious and egregious crimes, and it is not worth softening their hearts.The death penalty can effectively deter criminals and let them know what consequences they will bear if they are caught, so as to play a certain role in reducing crime.

The fugitive who Gu Yu was seriously injured was a serious criminal.Child abduction, drug manufacturing, drug smuggling, and drug trafficking, no matter which one of the crimes he committed, have reached the level enough to be sentenced to death.

In addition, it was the fugitive who made the first move with murderous intentions, and Gu Yu was the only mermaid awakened. He killed the other party in self-defense, and he would not be convicted legally.

After Gu Yu finished his statement, many people felt that this was a light move.

The first mission is over.

In another week, it will be the Lunar New Year, the most important Spring Festival.

Back then, there were not many decorations for Christmas, and the Spring Festival was different. As soon as the twelfth lunar month came, everyone began to prepare. Red lanterns were hung on the street, Spring Festival couplets were pasted in front of the door, and the shelves of shopping malls were full of New Year’s goods. The festive atmosphere was very strong.

The same is true in the base, many people are discussing how to celebrate the festival.

Gu Yu is also looking forward to it.

Unexpectedly, before he knew it, he had been at the base for almost half a year.

the time passes so fast.

Half a month ago, when Gu Yu called her parents on the phone, she learned that they had already booked the spaceship tickets and were going to come back for the New Year.

Thinking of this, Gu Yu was in a good mood, humming subconsciously as she walked, the melody was brisk and lively, and those who heard it were infected by his emotions and couldn't help laughing.

"Gu Yu, you are so happy."

"Of course, it's the Chinese New Year."

This kind of happiness lasted until the 29th year. Gu Yu, like everyone else, started to pack up and prepare to go home.

The light brain in Gu Yu's hand flickered, and she received a call from her mother.

"Yuyu." Mother Gu's voice paused, as if she didn't know what to say, and after two seconds, she continued, "We may not be able to go back."

Gu Yu was stunned, unable to believe it, "Why? Isn't it already on the spaceship?"

Gu's mother sighed, "The planet where the spaceship landed for energy supply, there is a parade, the people blocked the supply station, the traffic can't run normally, the spaceship can't fly, we are stranded here."

Father Gu's voice also came over, "I asked. The government is trying to figure out a way to deal with it. It should be unblocked in two days, and the flight can be taken off as usual the day after tomorrow. However, when we arrived... it was the third day of junior high school."

It is impossible to say not to lose.

Gu Yu bent her lips, but didn't show her emotions, making them worry, "The most important thing is that you are all right. It's the same as the Chinese New Year two days later. There may be radicals among the parades, so you must be careful. Don't get hurt."

Mother Gu couldn't help feeling a little sour when she heard him comfort them in turn, telling them to be careful, so sensible, and she blamed herself: "...Mom and Dad accompany you too little, so they ignore you."

She remembered that when Gu Yu was a child, she was still young, in the rising stage of her career, and her heart was full of the company. She was sure that the smart housekeeper could also take good care of the children properly and meticulously, so she completely entrusted Yuyu to it. She was often busy outside and rarely returned. Home.

At first, Yuyu would cry for her parents, but later she stopped crying and could be obedient by herself.When they got home, Yuyu saw them, and there was still a trace of strangeness in Wuliuliu's eyes. She hid behind the door and peeked out, as if she didn't recognize them.

They were at a loss, didn't know how to coax the child, and thought about whether they should try it with snack toys, but at this moment, Yuyu suddenly rushed over like a small cannonball, limply, and hugged her leg, Two little fleshy hands tightly grasped her pants, her little face was buried, and she didn't know if she was shy or something.But sure, not hating them.

At that moment, she realized how lucky she was as a mother to have such a well-behaved child.

They are often busy outside and don't get enough company, but when they come back, they still get hugs from their children.Yuyu didn't need to be coaxed, and even took out snacks for them to eat, and played with them with toys.

Gu Yu heard the apology in their words, shook her head, and said, "You all have jobs. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have the life I have now. I know that you love me, and that's enough."

Mother Gu's eyes slowly turned red.

Father Gu sat beside her and patted her on the back.

They chatted about some trivial matters in life and asked how Gu Yu was doing there, and before they knew it, an hour passed.

About to end the call, Gu Yu said softly, "Mom and Dad, Happy New Year."

"...well, happy new year."

Gu's mother nodded, her emotions couldn't hold back again, the strong woman who was vigorous and decisive in the mall, now because of the child's words, her eye circles were red again, and tears were even rolling in her eyes.

Father Gu couldn't help but tilt his head, and his throat muffled, "If you don't want to be alone, go to a friend's house for the New Year, and we'll visit them when the time comes."

Gu Yu nodded obediently, "Yes."

After the call was over, he looked down at the optical brain for a long time, closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his eyes fell on his injured arm. The wound was deep, and there were still obvious scars after healed.He asked the doctor for the medicine to quickly remove the scar, and he didn't want to be worried by his parents.

But no matter how fast the effect of the medicine is, it will take some time. It is impossible for the scar to disappear on New Year's Eve, at most it can only fade by half.It is also a good thing that the parents arrive a few days later, and the scars can be lighter.

Gu Yu applied a thick ointment, spread it evenly to absorb it, put down his sleeves, and went out to the cafeteria to eat.

Because of the upcoming Spring Festival, everyone is in a good mood. The cafeteria is buzzing with people talking about Chinese New Year everywhere, which is much more lively than usual.

As soon as Gu Yu entered the door, she saw Kong Fengyu, who hadn't turned into an awakened body, but seemed to have invisible tail feathers spreading.

Kong Fengyu greeted him warmly when he saw him.

Gu Yu responded and went to line up.

Kong Fengyu, who was a little nervous, didn't see anything wrong at all, but Wen Zhizhi next to him frowned slightly, stopped eating, turned to look for Lin Zhou's figure, and sent him a message.

Not long after, Lin Zhou also appeared in the cafeteria, ordered food casually, and walked to sit down opposite Gu Yu.

When Gu Yu saw Lin Zhou, he greeted him, and continued to eat with his head down. His expression was calm and normal, but if you looked closely, you would find that he was not energetic.

Lin Zhou asked, "Did you sleep well?"

Gu Yu hummed, "A little bit."

The surroundings were full of noise and laughter, but their place was so quiet that the atmosphere was a little stagnant.

Lin Zhou didn't ask again, but Gu Yu suddenly felt a weight on his leg, and the fluff brushed his arm, itching.

Looking down, a pitch-black cat was looking up, looking at him eagerly, as if begging to be petted.

Gu Yu didn't move, it just arched lightly into his arms, offered its paws up, and meowed.

Gu Yu had no choice but to reach out and hold its head, and asked Lin Zhou, "There are so many people here, are you okay if you release your spirit body?"

Lin Zhou shook his head, "It's okay, it wants you to touch it."

The spiritual body is a part of Lin Zhou, so the cat's thoughts are also Lin Zhou's thoughts?

But at this time, Gu Yu didn't think too much about it. I have to say that holding a fluffy in her arms feels very healing and makes people feel more relaxed.

Gu Yu put down half of the meal, lowered her head and concentrated on pinching the cat's paws, soft pads, pointed cat ears, scratching her chin, and petting for a long time.

Lin Zhou was sitting opposite and watched, with a calm expression, his lips were pursed tightly, and the color of his lips became darker.

When Gu Yu finally stopped.

Lin Zhou's tense body relaxed slightly, and asked in a low voice, "Are you feeling better?"

Gu Yu paused, looked up at him, and looked away again, only to remember that the close connection between the spiritual body and himself, let go of the cat's claws.

Qiuqiu lay on his lap, meowed, and there seemed to be a bit of resentment in his eyes, accusing him of not admitting it after touching it.

Gu Yu stroked its head soothingly, and then responded vaguely.

Lin Zhou looked at him and asked again, "Can you tell me why you are in a bad mood?"

The voice is very soft, like coaxing a child.

Gu Yu lowered her eyes and remained silent for a moment. She was attracted by the sound of happy breathing nearby. She turned her head to look at the cat, then turned back and stroked the cat. "It's nothing, but my parents' spaceship is delayed, and they will arrive two days late."

Lin Zhou frowned slightly.

This means that Gu Yu will spend the New Year alone.When I was immersed in the joy of reunion in other people's homes, by comparison, it was obviously not as painless as he said.

"Then," Lin Zhou paused, seeming to be phrasing in his mind, "Do you want to go home with me for the New Year?"

Gu Yu looked up, surprised.

Lin Zhou stared at him seriously with deep and dark eyes, and said with a smile: "I really want to celebrate the New Year with you, give me a chance? I will return you when my uncle and aunt come back, is that okay?"

Gu Yu opened his mouth, and after a few seconds, he said, "Your family allows you to bring strangers home for the New Year?"

Lin Zhou shook his head, "You are not a stranger."

"I told them that they all like you very much. If you are willing to go back with me, they will only be very happy."

Gu Yu looked into his eyes, his ears were slightly warm, and he didn't dare to ask for a while, how did he mention himself to his family.

After a few seconds, Lin Zhou asked again, "Is it okay?"

Gu Yu suddenly discovered that when Lin Zhou talked to him, he liked to say this sentence, as if he was asking, but it was a little aggressive, pressing every step of the way, even if people retreated to avoid, they would soon be caught up again live.

But Lin Zhou's behavior never crossed the line, which made him feel disgusted. Unknowingly, he seemed to get used to him getting closer.When he realized it, there was not much distance left between the two of them.

Gu Yu lowered his head, and the cat in his arms gently touched him, the cat's paw lightly rested on his hand, and gave him a small push twice. The wet cat's eyes looked at him, as if begging for a beloved little fish Dry.

Gu Yu's heart was already a little shaken, and he hesitated even more.Qiuqiu meowed, and when he raised his head, he met Lin Zhou's gaze again. Being looked at by the big cat and the kitten like this at the same time, he was really speechless.

Finally, Gu Yu nodded.

Lin Zhou suddenly showed a smile, the arc was not too big, but it was a very rare bright smile on Lin Zhou who rarely showed his emotions.

After Gu Yu finished her meal, she went back to the dormitory with Lin Zhou and packed her luggage.

After entering.

Gu Yu looked at her half-packed suitcase and put it on the ground, thinking that she would not need it.

Unexpectedly, going out for a meal turned into going to Lin Zhou's house for the New Year.

Until now, he still feels incredible, wondering if this is a correct decision.

I'm afraid it will be embarrassing.

Chinese New Year is a family reunion.

He always felt a little weird when he came to the door.

But if he went to tell Lin Zhou that he regretted it now, Lin Zhou might be furious.

Imagining the scene of a big cat blowing fur, Gu Yu bent her lower lip, packed up again, and brought a lot of New Year's goods.

He also told his parents about it, and they were very relieved when they heard that he was going to Lieutenant General Lin's house, and only told him to be polite when visiting.

the next morning.

Gu Yu got into the car with Lin Zhou.

Go to the Lin family mansion.

Because it is a bit far from the base, it will take more than three hours to get there.Normally, Gu Yu must have fallen asleep during this long drive, but this time, Gu Yu was a little nervous and couldn't fall asleep.He lowered his head and played with the optical brain, actually absent-minded.

Lin Zhou noticed it and calmed his emotions, "Don't worry, they heard that you are going, they are very welcome, and they asked me what kind of food you like, what are your preferences, and prepared in advance."

When Gu Yu heard this, he became even more nervous.

Lin Zhou: "Compared to me, my mother should like you more."

Gu Yu was puzzled and felt that he was talking nonsense.

Lin Zhou's expression did not seem to be fake, "She has always thought that my personality is dull, and she wants me to be more sunny. She will definitely like you when she sees your smile."

Gu Yu: "You just said it."

Lin Zhou took a bottle of water and handed it to his hand, touching it with his fingertips inadvertently, Lin Zhou's body temperature was high and he felt a little hot.

He said: "Because I like you very much, so she will like you too."

Gu Yu's heart skipped a beat, and she looked down at the water bottle, not him.

After unscrewing the bottle, raise your head to drink water.

It's like he didn't hear what he said just now.

Lin Zhou didn't say any more, and turned his head to look out the car window.

Gu Yu breathed a sigh of relief and licked his lips.I was in a hurry to drink just now.

The interior of the car is quiet and spread, but it is not awkward and stiff, but there is an indescribable harmony.

The Lin family's mansion covers a large area, like a noble family's mansion, with white walls and black tiles, antique and magnificent.

Drive through the garden and stop in front of the building.

Gu Yu got off the car with Lin Zhou.

After entering the house, not long after, I saw Mother Lin.

Wearing a cheongsam, with gentle eyebrows and elegant temperament, she has the taste of a Jiangnan woman.

When she spoke, her voice was very soft, "You are Gu Yu, right? My son has told me about you a long time ago, and I have always wanted to see you. You are so good-looking, and you are even more likable than I imagined."

Before Gu Yu came in, she was still worried about seeing the elders, but Mother Lin's kind attitude and gentle tone broke the barrier at once, as if it wasn't his first time here.

He was a little embarrassed by the praise, his ears turned red, and he politely called auntie.

"Can I call you Xiaoyu?"

"can."

Mother Lin's smile deepened, and she said, "It's time to eat soon, I'll go to the kitchen first, and you guys clean up too, go wash your hands."

Gu Yu nodded obediently again.

Looking at him like that, Lin Zhou felt his hands itch, and couldn't help touching his head.

Gu Yu raised his eyes, a little dazed.

Lin Zhou coughed, feeling a little guilty by his clear and clean eyes, and always felt that he had lured someone back to his den.

Mother Lin who had just left forgot to say something, turned around and came back, saw this scene, couldn't help laughing, and then quietly left again.

On the table.

Lin Zhou's grandparents sat on the main seat.Father Lin hasn't come back yet.

He looks serious and expressionless, but when he actually speaks, he is very kind.

Other relatives of the Lin family also greeted Gu Yu, curious about the people Lin Zhou brought back.

After all, Lin Zhou seldom brings friends home, and now it's the Spring Festival, and it's easy for people to feel that bringing them back during this kind of family reunion has another meaning.

There was a little baby who couldn't help asking crisply, "Is it sister-in-law?"

Lin Zhou smiled, "We are still friends."

The milk doll couldn't understand, but the adults present were different, and instantly showed a clear smile.

The little baby muttered in disappointment: "It looks good, I want a sister-in-law."

Lin Zhou leaned slightly, looked at Gu Yu, and said in a low voice, "I just said, they all like you."

At the dinner table, Gu Yu tilted his head and secretly gave him a glare from an angle that others couldn't see.

Lin Zhou suppressed his smile, but the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up, which was hard to suppress. There was a smile in his voice, and he chatted with his family about other topics.

Gu Yu was finally able to relax a bit and eat.

After dinner, Lin Zhou took him for a walk in the garden.

There are a lot of flowers planted here, all of which are carefully cared for and bloom beautifully, like the scenery in a movie.

When the sun fell, it was like broken gold, dyed with a hazy halo, making the layers of petals even more amazing.

After walking for a while, I found it.

There are swings in the garden, long wicker chairs, and flowers wrapped around wooden frames supported on both sides, blending in with the surrounding environment.

Gu Yu was a little surprised and couldn't help walking up quickly.

"It's been a long time since I played." Gu Yu stood beside the swing, her eyes were bright, she turned her head and asked, "Can I sit?"

Lin Zhou nodded, "It's not a decoration, it can sit. Do you want me to push you?"

"No." Gu Yu sat down, shook her head, patted the seat next to her instead, and said with great interest, "You come to sit too."

Lin Zhou was slightly taken aback.Things like swings are far away from him, and they don't fit well.

However, he couldn't refuse Gu Yu's gaze, and he really walked over and sat down.

Gu Yu smiled and said, "You don't need to push it, you can make it move while sitting."

As soon as he kicked his feet on the ground, the swing swayed backwards along the force.

Originally, Gu Yu was just kicking on one side, the force would be uneven, and the swing would shake crookedly.But the moment he said it, Lin Zhou worked together to make the swing move.

One front and one back, shaking slowly.

The breeze blew across the cheeks, and the faint fragrance of flowers hit.

At the same time, there is a familiar aura from the people around you.

Caught in it, it's very shallow, but it can't be ignored.

Lin Zhou never thought that he would do such a naive thing. He is so old, swinging on a swing, and his family will definitely laugh when they see it.

But at this time, he was in a good mood.

Lin Zhou took Gu Yu for a brief walk around the mansion, and the afternoon passed like this.

In the evening is the reunion dinner, the table is full of delicacies, which is richer than that at noon, just like a full banquet.

Lin's family doesn't pay too much attention to the rules, and they chat and chat during meals, which is as warm and cozy as most families.

Fruit after a meal.

The elders began to give red envelopes to the younger ones.

The children were very happy when they got the red envelopes, and they said congratulations and fortune in a crisp voice, laughing constantly.

But Gu Yu didn't expect that he would receive it too.

Lin Zhou's grandparents and parents all handed him a thick red envelope.

Gu Yu was embarrassed to answer, "I'm not a child anymore."

Grandma Lin smiled kindly: "In our place, those who are not married are all children."

Linzhou's cousin next to him shook the red envelope in her hand and smiled brightly, "That's right, I'm older than you, so I have it."

Gu Yu had no choice but to take it, cupped his hands, and said with a smile: "Gong Xi Fa Cai, everything goes well."

After that, there will be the traditional fireworks over the years.

It used to be banned, but later new materials were found to replace it, which will not cause air pollution and is safe, so this tradition has come back.

In the sound of firecrackers, there is only the taste of the year when the year is gone.

The members of the Lin family all went to the back of the mansion, where there is a crescent-shaped lake, as clear as a mirror, and the scenery is beautiful.

When taking a walk in the afternoon, Gu Yu also came here, and the sun shone on the lake, sparkling.At night, it is not the same beauty, the moon in the water shakes gently, and the hazy moonlight seems to float mist on the lake.

A few small warm yellow lights were set up by the lake.

This is a good place to enjoy fireworks, and it doesn't make much difference where you look.Everyone chatted relaxedly, consciously or unconsciously, leaving a separate bench for Lin Zhou and Gu Yu.

In winter nights, the temperature is a bit low and the wind is cold.

Gu Yu sat on the side of the bench, looked at the quiet lake, couldn't help lowering her head, and hid half of her face in the scarf, only revealing a pair of bright eyes.A part of the scarf slipped off, and he didn't want to reach out to get it, and it was still lazily shrunk in his pocket.

Lin Zhou naturally helped him pull up the tail of the scarf that was hanging down, wrapped it back, and adjusted it smoothly, and his fingers touched Gu Yu's face inadvertently.It's not cold at all, but rather warm.

Because of this tactile sensation, Gu Yu turned his head to look and met his gaze.

Unexpectedly, with a bang, a firework pierced the dark night and exploded in the sky above the lake, and the colorful light was reflected on the face of the person in front of him.

Immediately afterwards, gorgeous fireworks continued to rise into the sky, blooming brightly, interweaving and lighting up the entire night sky, and then turning into star fragments and falling.

It also fell into Lin Zhou's deep and smiling eyes.

Gu Yu stared blankly, and a child's cheers and exclamations came from his ears.

"The fireworks have begun."

Lin Zhou spoke close at hand, but because the sound of fireworks seemed to come from far away, it was so vague.

Gu Yu looked at his side face for a while, and then raised her head to admire the beautiful fireworks. She didn't know what was going on in her mind, and the corners of her mouth curled up, her smile was even brighter than the fireworks.

The grand and gorgeous fireworks are beautiful, but Lin Zhou didn't pay much attention to them, and couldn't help turning his head to look at the people beside him.

Gu Yu noticed the gaze and turned her head to look.

Eyes collided.

His lips moved slightly, trying to say something, but stopped again.

Until the fireworks fell, in an instant, the surroundings became extremely quiet.

It's like falling into another world.

Gu Yu stared at him, eyes bent, as if the lake was filled with starlight.

"I like you too."

These few words, like the last and most brilliant fireworks, exploded in Lin Zhou's ears, making his mind go blank, and he was instantly defeated.
