Capture an Omega Mermaid
Chapter 15 I'm His Husband
He dared to lean up to kiss him, but he still wanted to block it...
Fu Xinglan raised his hand and rubbed his forehead, almost couldn't hold back his curse.
Shen Yan: "What?"
"It's nothing." Fu Xinglan was expressionless, "I just think you and Luo Yunzhou are a good match in some aspects." For example, blind confidence in my self-control...
Fu Xinglan: "You really don't think about him?"
Shen Yan was also expressionless: "...No, thank you."
The tide set off a day later than them, and finally arrived before the dance began.
Wearing the dress prepared by the butler, when he got out of the car in a hurry, Tidal felt like Cinderella who had been enchanted, riding a pumpkin carriage and rushing over.
Unlike Cinderella, his prince can find him from the crowd at a glance without using a crystal slipper.
Fu Xinglan stretched out his hand, waiting for him to obediently hand it over to her, and asked with downcast eyes, "Are you tired?"
Tide was a little nervous, probably because he was too excited. Although he barely fell asleep on the spaceship last night, he didn't feel tired at all now. He shook his head and said, "I'm not tired."
Fu Xinglan nodded, helped him straighten a small tuft of hair on the top of his head, and led the person into the venue, ignoring countless scrutinizing eyes.
Fu Xinglan, just looking at his brows and eyes is completely deep and handsome like an imperial nobleman, and he is probably in a good mood tonight, with a smile on his lips, and his inhuman indifference is perfectly restrained by a well-tailored suit. On the contrary, it brings out a kind of sharp mature charm.
He is the youngest marshal of the federation, and an alpha of S rank, no matter his identity or appearance, he is undisputedly top.
Many nobles in the empire wanted to make friends with him, but they had already heard about his temper. When they saw him outside, almost no one dared to speak to him.
At this time, there was that good-looking boy beside him, and the aura around the marshal became much softer. The usual arrogance and indifference were restrained just right, but instead, the casualness that was unconsciously leaked became a natural suave.
The eyes of all the people in the audience were more or less looking at this side. At first, they were naturally attracted by Fu Xinglan, but after watching, many eyes fell on Chao Chao.
Those who can come to the First Prince's banquet are all self-identified, and they have naturally seen many good-looking men and women. It stands to reason that no matter how stunning Chao Chao looks, no one will dare to covet him. You should look back in time to avoid misunderstanding.
But I don't know why, I just can't move my eyes.
In the corner upstairs, the fourth princess tugged at the corner of the eldest prince's clothes: "Brother?"
She followed her brother's gaze into the hall, and critically looked up and down the boy standing beside Fu Xinglan. While resentful, she had to admit that boys do have the capital to attract people's attention.
Chao Chao and Fu Xinglan's clothes are a complete set, and they look especially good when they stand together so intimately.
Tidal has a slender waist and long legs, and his side profile is exquisite and unusual, so good-looking that he shines in the crowd, and what's more rare is that he has an amiable temperament.
He stood there like a little lamb that had strayed into a pack of hungry wolves. He was soft and cute and didn't know the danger. He thought he was hiding and looked around with wide-eyed and curious eyes. Suddenly he raised his head and stared at him upstairs. Someone's eyes met.
The man was wearing a luxurious dress, holding a wine glass, leaning sideways on the railing on the second floor and looking down, even if he was standing casually, he couldn't hide his elegant and extravagant air, obviously his status was not low.
Chao Chao seemed to be taken aback for a moment, and immediately looked away.
The eldest prince was slightly startled, then seemed to realize something, first showed a look of surprise, and soon narrowed his eyes slowly with interest.
He turned around and whispered something to the guard beside him. The latter seemed a little surprised, but immediately calmed down and took the order to leave.
"Why?" The fourth princess said with a bit of a taste in her tone, "You also have a crush on that little fairy?"
Yin Beichen curled his lips into a smile, and comforted her: "I just think...we are really destined."
He leaned over and whispered something in his sister's ear.
The girl's eyes widened in an instant, and the look she looked at Chao Chao changed from surprise to sarcasm, and her tone changed immediately: "That's fine, you snatch him and keep him in your fish tank, Fu Xinglan is mine, just right!"
She rolled her eyes, and then looked down with obvious contempt and contempt, and seemed to think of some interesting gameplay, so she couldn't help but curl her lips.
Chapter 19 The eldest prince knew his younger sister very well, and he guessed her thoughts almost instantly. He raised his glass and took a sip of wine, but he didn't intend to stop him.
He raised his eyes to look at his second younger brother who was walking towards Fu Xinglan, and then at Yin Nanlu who was by Yin Xining's side - if his family could have such an outstanding younger sister to help him wholeheartedly, I'm afraid he would have easily achieved what he wanted. I wish...
He glanced at his younger sister who was quietly explaining to the attendant, who was obviously planning some bad idea, and shook his head after a while.
Forget it, Yin Dongxue, who can't hide his thoughts, is more suitable to live under his protection. If it were Yin Nanlu, he might be killed early in the morning because of his suspicion and jealousy...
Downstairs, under the guidance of Yin Nanlu, Yin Xining went to Fu Xinglan to say hello, and then he didn't know what to say.
He didn't like this kind of activities very much, and Lotter couldn't come because he had something to do, and there were few people to adjust the atmosphere, so he couldn't find a suitable topic.If he hadn't been forced by his sister, he would have almost escaped early in the morning with the pretext of preparing for the wedding.
Fortunately, Yin Nanlu was also aware of his brother's habit, so he quickly picked up the topic and started chatting.
It wasn't chatting with Fu Xinglan, but obviously chatting with Chao Chao on purpose, and it seemed that he was conquered by the beauty of the little mermaid.
With a dark face, Fu Xinglan pulled Chao Tide behind him, cutting off the sight communication between the two: "The third princess respects herself."
"Call me aunt." Yin Nanlu glanced at him, "I heard that you are married, so why is it that aunt looks at your nephew and daughter-in-law?"
Fu Xinglan: "..."
Fu Xinglan didn't know if she was pleased by the phrase "nephew and daughter-in-law", but she didn't stop her.
However, Fu Xinglan and Yin Nanlu were not at odds, and without saying a few words, they started arguing again, and even Chao Chao felt the tension in the atmosphere. Fortunately, the two were used to ridiculing each other since they were young, and they were far from falling out.
What I have to admit is that Fu Xinglan has always regarded Yin Nanlu as an opponent more than the eldest prince and the second prince.
Although there may be elements of the eldest prince hiding his power and biding his time, trying to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger, but in terms of many principles of life, even if they have different positions, Yin Nanlu is one of the few who can sympathize with Fu Xinglan.
Either the matter of mk23 came from the hands of the second prince Yin Xining, or it must be a trump card used to seize the throne that one of the other princes took pains to hide.
And bringing this matter to him, on the surface, sold him a good deal, but in fact-whether or not the First Legion is involved in the imperial prince's dispute, they will definitely intervene in the matter of mc1's leak. Yin Xining is equivalent to One more natural ally.
Even if Fu Xinglan still didn't bother to come to the empire to attend the wedding in the end, the two parties were already bound in fact.
This kind of scheming method that makes people have to board a pirate ship can't be thought of by Yin Xining at first glance, it can only come from Yin Nanlu's plan.
Although Fu Xinglan said that he was too lazy to intervene in their struggle for reserves, he still felt a little pity——Yin Beichen was evil-minded, and Yin Xining was indecisive. To be honest, Yin Nanlu was indeed the most suitable one to take the lead.
Lotter is simply a disaster for the country and the demon concubine, delaying the queen's career...
Yin Nanlu and Fu Xinglan kept silent about a lot of things. They didn't talk for long. In order to prevent the future long-term cooperation from being broken up in advance due to a disagreement, they broke up tacitly soon.
As soon as the people left, the fourth princess dragged her brother over.
The tide is particularly sensitive to the sight, and before anyone approached, he looked back along the way, but without thinking, he met the eldest prince's eyes again.
Yin Beichen is also a high-level alpha, and his appearance is naturally handsome. Unlike Fu Xinglan's aura of not getting close to strangers, this eldest prince is polite and polite to everyone, with a gentle smile on his face all the time. Looking at it, she nodded gracefully at him, looking very easy to get along with.
For some reason, Chao Chao suddenly had the illusion that he was being watched by some dangerous animal, so he took a step back unconsciously, and moved closer to Fu Xinglan.
With such a movement, he immediately attracted the attention of the two oncoming people.
The fourth princess, as the rare omega of the royal family, was already so pitiful to me, but now she purposely glanced at him lightly, her aggrieved and forbearing appearance made her even more sympathetic.
She turned her head to look at Fu Xinglan dejectedly, and said softly, "Brother Xinglan... Is it because of him that you unilaterally broke up our engagement?"
Tide was drawn back to focus, slightly startled.
engagement?
He couldn't help turning his head quietly to observe Fu Xinglan's expression.
Fu Xinglan squeezed his hand secretly, and looked at Yin Dongxue with very cold eyes: "I have never agreed to any marriage contract. I didn't count it before. Now that I am married, the princess doesn't have to take it to heart."
The fourth princess didn't seem to expect him to be so merciless, her eyes turned red, and her voice was choked with sobs: "You..."
She quickly glanced at Tidal, bit her lip, obviously extremely ashamed and angry, "Am I really that bad?! I have loved you with all my heart for 20 years... Now that you are like this, they are all laughing at me behind my back, after I How do you get married?"
Chao's expression changed, as if he couldn't bear it.
Fu Xinglan sneered inwardly.
Who dares to laugh at you behind your back?You haven't pulled out your tongue yet.
He knew very well that this fourth princess was domineering since she was a child, and she had the kind of temperament that she would grab what she liked and never cherish it after she got it.
Fu Xinglan used to see her bullying people by virtue of her status. At first, she thought she was young and ignorant, so she kindly persuaded her a few words. Later, she found that she was being obedient in front of her, but she used even more vicious methods to take revenge on innocent people behind her back. He completely lost patience with the fourth princess.
However, Chao Chao didn't know the inside story, and the girl looked pitiful, obviously successfully deceived by appearances.
But the girl opposite suddenly turned to look at him: "Excuse me, can I have a few words with Brother Xinglan alone?"
Tide froze for a moment.
He paused in his heart - even if he couldn't bear to see girls feel sad, he didn't want to give up Fu Xinglan to others at all...
"Sorry, not quite..." Convenient.
Before Chao Chao finished speaking, he felt his palms warm up. Fu Xinglan held his hand, raised his head and refused, "I have nothing to tell you."
The fourth princess' eyes widened in disbelief, and the sockets of her eyes turned red instantly: "Fu Xinglan!"
Fu Xinglan said expressionlessly: "If you talk to me alone now, aren't you afraid that more people will laugh at you and you won't be able to marry in the future?"
The fourth princess choked immediately: "..."
The girl's expression changed a few times. Seeing that the young lady was about to lose her temper, the eldest prince finally said softly, "Xiaoxue. Don't be willful."
The fourth princess looked back at her elder brother, then looked at Fu Xinglan and Chao Chao sadly, did not say any more, stomped her feet, turned her head and left.
The eldest prince did not intend to follow and leave.
Fu Xinglan glanced at him coldly: "Your Majesty, won't you follow me?"
"No hurry," the First Prince smiled, "I really want to talk to the Marshal, and you must have some questions to confirm with me, right?"
His eyes fell on Tidal, and he quickly moved back, adding meaningfully, "For example, some coincidences?"
Fu Xinglan's eyes moved slightly.
The two stared at each other silently for a few seconds in the room where they were toasting.
Chao Chao keenly sensed that the atmosphere was not right, and pulled Fu Xinglan sensibly: "I just want to go to the bathroom, so you talk first, I'll be back later?"
Fu Xinglan hesitated for a moment, exchanged glances with the guards of the First Legion guarding the door, and finally nodded: "Okay."
The eldest prince was actually the first among all the princes to come into contact with Fu Xinglan. Fu Xinglan wasn't sure if he really had any secrets about the tidal background, so he had to deal with him patiently.
However, this person was very tactful, and he circled back and forth speciously with him, but he didn't say a word.
On the surface, it seems to be implying that only with the cooperation of the First Legion, Tide will always belong to Fu Xinglan, but in fact, he is vague about the origin of Tide, and the words only revolve around his identity as a mermaid reformer.
If Chao Chao is really the Xia family, and the First Prince has participated in the conspiracy, he must have joined forces with the Third Legion. At this time, it is better to directly reveal Chao Chao's identity, so as to shake him even more.
But now it's more like deliberately misleading him along the lines...
Fu Xinglan's eyes darkened.
It's a pity that he had already made up his mind when he ordered Tidal to come to the empire—even if Tidal is really a spy sent by the Third Legion|, so what?
Just grab it.
When he dealt with the eldest prince, he kept paying attention to the time, and seeing that the guards of his own army did not come back, he thought it was because the castle was too big, or Tide went out curiously.
It wasn't until a quarter of an hour later that the eldest prince was still pulling him endlessly, that Fu Xinglan frowned, vaguely realizing that something had happened.
At the same time, the cover on Tide's head was finally lifted, and the princess in front of him was recognized at a glance.
He frowned, and "woo hoo" struggled to get the tape off his hands and mouth.
The fourth princess raised her chin, her expression was completely different from that in the banquet hall just now.
She chuckled lightly, and said in a haughty voice, "Do you know what mermaids are used for among our nobles?"
tidal:"??"
Before he could react, the woman raised her foot and suddenly kicked him backwards into the water.
Tide was taken aback.
Seeing his panic expression, the fourth princess sneered: "Don't you know? Then you should ask them yourself..."
Chao Chao held his breath subconsciously, and realized that his tail was about to jump out uncontrollably, so nervous that his heart was about to jump out.
He hurriedly turned his head, only to see a bright blue fish tail suddenly streaking across the dark depths of the water...
This place is like a huge fish tank, and more and more deformed mermaids are protruding from the darkness.
Some of them are festered, some are covered with scars, and some are skinny...
At this time, as if seeing a long-lost prey, they all rushed to this side, revealing sharp minions...
Chapter 20 The gorgeous ball was held on the second floor of the castle, and no one heard the faint cry for help from the central reservoir of the research institute deep underground.
The tide fell into the water with a "plop", subconsciously gritted its teeth and endured the instinct of change.
He had already figured out the cause and effect in a few sentences, he just felt that he could no longer transform into a girl who was full of hatred in front of him, and there was still tape wrapped around his legs, if he transformed into his flesh, it would cause even more damage , I really can't make it back to the dance.
He hadn't actually tried to control his form switching before, but this was the first time he tried, he was unavoidably unskilled in the panic, and the ear fins and gills changed uncontrollably as he gradually sank and became hypoxic.
Fortunately, probably because of the high concentration of attention, Chao Chao finally felt some sensations, and the legs did not transform into tails in the first place.
He tried his best to make his skin smoother and more delicate. With the help of water weakening the glue, the tape that bound him was easier to fall off, and it was loosened after a few strokes.
The fourth princess seemed to be in a hurry to get back to the ball, not interested in watching him being bitten to death, so she quickly turned her head and led people away.
Chao Tide dodged several attacks under the water in embarrassment, and finally waited until those people came out of sight before the irrational mermaids surrounded him completely.
In the next second, he completely broke away from the tape and released his tail.
Tide seemed to hold his breath, and the drowning person who finally recovered at the last second, with a pale face and no time to catch his breath, turned over nimbly again, struggled to be bitten a few times, found the gap, and quickly escaped from the encirclement.
He inevitably suffered some injuries on his arms, but fortunately, the material of the dress was good enough to barely block some attacks.
Tide's tail was healthier and more powerful than those of the experimental ones, and its swimming speed was naturally much faster, leaving the pursuers behind in a few breaths.
It's a pity that there are obviously not only a few mermaids in this huge reservoir.
Soon, other mermaids appeared in the dark water. Not only the front, but almost all the mermaids in all directions were startled by the movement here and swam towards him.
Chao Chao's heart was beating wildly, and he tried several times to communicate with them, but all failed.
If you think about it, you can guess that if these mermaids have enough wisdom, even if they can only reach the level of being pets, they will not be locked up in a big fish tank so carelessly...
He swam fast, but was still quickly surrounded again. The irrational deformed mermaid scratched his tail fiercely, and the sharp nails toppled the fish scales, leaving a hideous wound on the side.
The caught fish scales fluttered and fell to the bottom of the tank.
"what!!"
Tidal was so painful that he instinctively let out an exclamation.
He didn't know that his subconscious call that didn't belong to humans was transmitted along with the water waves, causing a beautiful mermaid in a certain laboratory to suddenly open its eyes...
The scale of this underground royal secret research institute is astonishing.
The test area surrounded the central giant fish tank in a ring, and in each laboratory, a small area was divided from the central reservoir with tempered glass to restrict the movement of the mermaid being tested.
Ten minutes ago, there was silence in the largest research room in the center.
In the spacious and clean house, a huge fish tank occupies the entire wall facing the door.I don’t know where the lighting is installed in the water, and through the colorful waves, it slowly shines on the surrounding ceilings and walls, giving the people in the room a neatly ironed white coat, reflecting a strange light.
What is more eye-catching is the mermaid with a gorgeous tail in the center of the tank.
It was an extremely beautiful female mermaid, wearing a gauze covered with gorgeous shells and pearls, in which her graceful figure loomed.
The slender fish tail swayed slightly with the water flow, and the stretched tail fin reflected fine scales, like the most gorgeous and luxurious gauze skirt in the world.
The door of the laboratory made two beeps, and two researchers also wearing white coats walked in, one of whom seemed to be introducing something to the other, and was talking incessantly.
"Hey, Chengfeng, do you have any plans for this weekend? If not, can you help me be on duty? I promised my girlfriend to take her to the movies..."
The entrusted researcher seemed a little helpless, and reminded: "You also said something happened last week and changed shifts with me..."
"I really have something to do," the old researcher said while operating the equipment, glanced at the kits brought over, took out one and inserted it into the trough, "You're single, you're fine on weekends anyway! I'll change it!"
The two looked at the edge of the water tank, and the needle connected to the thin tube protruded and pierced into the back of the mermaid's neck.
The man explained proudly while proficient in operation, "Besides, although you have a high degree of education, you are still a newcomer after all, so you just need more time to get familiar with it! Otherwise, wouldn't you come here today to learn from me?"
Hearing this, Ji Chengfeng had no choice but to agree: "Okay then, give me your work card."
The researcher who operated it was immediately happy: "Thank you!"
Seeing that Ji Chengfeng swiped his work card and clocked in quickly, the old researcher immediately reciprocated and instructed, "Look here, inject the catalyst directly into the vicinity of the gland, and the effect will be very fast, and you don't need to work hard to extract the pheromones later. Changed position."
Ji Chengfeng's attention has been attracted by the mermaid in the tank.
The beautiful mermaid has always closed her eyes quietly from the very beginning, from the contours of her eyebrows and eyes, to her slender arms, to the curve of her waist and hips, every inch of the arc is as beautiful as if carefully carved by a god.
It's just that following the researcher's operation, Ruxue's skin began to turn red little by little under the action of the drug, and her brows also frowned, obviously feeling a little uncomfortable.
Ji Chengfeng subconsciously approached the fish tank, put his hands on the tank wall, and a look of worry flashed in his eyes.
The old researcher looked at him distractedly, and said with a smile, "It's pretty, isn't it? But don't think about it, do you know how much she's worth?"
"Not to mention the value of the extracted pheromones, all the modified mermaid genes on the black market in the past 20 years have basically come from her."
Ji Chengfeng frowned and said, "She doesn't look very well..."
"Pfft," the researcher said with a smile, "it's just an experimental product, why are you so distracted? Do you care whether the mice in the laboratory are comfortable or not? Besides, isn't it normal to have a strong reaction? mk28 is a strong drug..."
"mk28?" Ji Chengfeng was puzzled, "Isn't it 23?"
"Hey!" The researcher curled his lips, showing an annoyed expression that he had accidentally slipped his mouth.
He looked around and lowered his voice: "The higher-ups think the progress is too slow, so they force them to speed up."
"Professor Gu strongly disagrees, saying that the reagent is still in the experimental stage and will cause danger to the mermaid... You also know that Professor Gu has a temper, and he quarreled with the higher-ups, and as a result..." He shrugged, "The arms can't twist the thighs, I have been banned from coming to the laboratory these days."
Seeing the mermaid's increasingly painful expression, Ji Chengfeng couldn't help frowning slightly.
The professor Gu mentioned by the researcher is named Gu Yanzhi, and he is one of the persons in charge of the entire project, mainly researching mermaids.
Probably because he was too young compared to the other leaders, coupled with his indifferent personality and strict requirements, many researchers were very afraid of him, and usually walked around when they saw him from a distance, which made Professor Gu even more difficult to see. Close, even eating is always alone.
After Ji Chengfeng tried to strike up a conversation and was rejected, the researchers who were acquainted with him once told him in private: "Stay away from Professor Gu", "Professor Gu is very cold", "Look, he will stare at you again later"!
As expected, Ji Chengfeng was stared at, but Gu Yanzhi didn't say anything to him. Instead, he turned his head and said sternly to all the "old seniors" who ordered him to run errands to help: "Are you guys without hands?"
The atmosphere at the scene was too embarrassing, so Ji Chengfeng had no choice but to smooth things over, saying that it didn't matter, and he had to get familiar with the new environment in the first place.
Then Gu Yanzhi glared at him coldly again, and walked away with his head raised, as if he was angry.
Ji Chengfeng has been trying to apologize since then, trying to explain several times that he knew his kindness, but Gu Yanzhi always turned his head and left when he saw him.
Later, probably because he was so annoyed that he finally broke out in silence, and said angrily, "Don't you know that they all like to push their feet? Your good temper will only make you take it for granted!"
Ji Chengfeng was stunned by the yelling, and said after considering, "So... are you angry for me?"
Gu Yanzhi visibly froze for a moment, then turned cold for an instant, and stormed away angrily.
Ji Chengfeng's eyes stopped on his obviously red ears, and he didn't recover until he was completely invisible.
However, Gu Yanzhi is really good-looking, although he is not easy to get along with, there are still many people who have other thoughts.
The old researcher was obviously one of them.
He looked around, as if suddenly interested in gossip: "Hey, I heard that Professor Gu is actually an omega..."
He winked at Ji Chengfeng, "It's a pity that our betas can't smell pheromones, otherwise I really want to smell what this iceberg beauty smells like..."
"It would be nice to see him in heat, the way he usually looks above his head, and the way he's forced to kneel at the man's feet begging for mercy, tsk tsk tsk, just thinking about it makes me feel moved!"
Ji Chengfeng couldn't take it anymore, he frowned and interrupted: "Don't talk about this kind of thing behind your back."
The old researcher clicked his tongue rather bored, seeing that the machine was working normally, he took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket: "Forget it, I'm going out to smoke a cigarette, you keep an eye on it..."
The researcher soon went out of the laboratory to goof off.
Ji Chengfeng kept observing the mermaid's reaction, and couldn't help but approach the fish tank again.
"Are you uncomfortable?" He tapped on the tank wall lightly and whispered, "Can you speak? Can you understand me?"
The mermaid didn't respond.
Ji Chengfeng thought about it for a while, and continued his efforts: "If you feel very uncomfortable, I can think of a way... I didn't expect that they would suddenly try a new reagent today, and I don't know if the previous inhibitor is still useful..."
He rambled on for a long while, until he received some news, then returned to the console, swiped the old researcher's card, called up the research institute's monitoring map of the experimental product, squinted his eyes and studied.
"You really can't talk? If you could..."
But I heard a voice beside me say coldly: "I have been in the institute for three years, and I have never heard her speak."
Ji Chengfeng was startled, and turned to look to the side.
There is the corner of the fish tank, which is separated from the operating table by a curtain, and it is impossible to see if someone is hiding without going around the fish tank.
And Gu Yanzhi, who was wearing a white coat, stood there, as if he had been here since before they came in.
Ji Chengfeng was a little surprised, turned his head to look at the door, and quickly regained his composure.
He thought for a while, and didn't ask the meaningless question of why you are here, and followed the other party to turn his gaze back to the mermaid in the tank: "Is she intelligent?"
Gu Yanzhi observed the state of the mermaid, frowned slightly, and put one palm on the fish tank, no emotion could be heard in his voice: "Of course, she is different from other modified mermaids you have seen, she is..."
Before he could finish his sentence, the mermaid who had kept his eyes closed before suddenly opened them wide.
Both of them in the lab are a meal.
However, before they could say anything, the mermaid in the tank suddenly opened its mouth and let out a shrill scream that didn't resemble a human being. Then it frantically pulled out all kinds of needles stuck in its body, and hit it hard with a "boom". on the back glass.
Gu Yanzhi's pupils suddenly dilated, and he subconsciously shouted, "Be careful!"
Chapter 21 Blood gushes out from various wounds where the mermaid violently pulled out the needles. With her violent movements, a small area of water is instantly dyed red.
Both Gu Yanzhi and Ji Chengfeng were stunned.
Ji Chengfeng's first reaction was that there was a problem with the new reagent, and he rushed to the operating table to prepare for the injection of the mermaid inhibitor, but the next second he remembered that all the needles had been pulled out by the mermaid.
His fingers paused hesitantly on the button for releasing high-concentration sedatives—the mermaid had just been injected with a new type of drug, and rashly ingesting high-concentration sedatives would probably have an impact on the body.
However, the mermaid in the tank was still bumping against the inner tank wall, and every time it hit, a piece of blood spilled from her lips.
Ji Chengfeng knew that it was connected to the central reservoir, and the hardness of the tank wall was not that of flesh and blood, even if it was loaded with live ammunition, it would not be able to be smashed open with one or two blows.
Seemingly finding that the tank wall could not be broken, the mermaid screamed again.
This sound was obviously more powerful than the previous one, and Ji Chengfeng felt a "buzz" in his head, as if someone had punched him hard. When he recovered, the finger that was just hanging over the button had already Because of the lack of strength, I pressed it down.
Ji Chengfeng raised his head hastily.
However, Gu Yanzhi had also fallen in front of the fish tank, and the mermaid had already started to lose strength due to the strong calming effect, and was slowly falling in front of Gu Yanzhi through a layer of tempered glass.
Ji Chengfeng hadn't fully recovered yet, he was dizzy, his vision blurred, and he could only vaguely see the lips of the beautiful mermaid fluttering, as if he had said something to Gu Yanzhi...
Ji Chengfeng shook his head, and when he came back to his senses, he saw that Gu Yanzhi had already supported the wall of the vat, struggling to get up from the ground.
Gu Yanzhi raised his hand and pressed his temple, and then took another look.
Seemingly seeing that the indicator light for releasing anesthesia had come on, Gu Yanzhi didn't say anything else, but turned to Ji Chengfeng and said, "When someone asks, just say you haven't seen me."
Then it was too late for him to agree, so he hurried out of the laboratory before someone arrived.
Neither Chao Chao nor Ji Chengfeng knew—the beautiful mermaid hit the tank wall like crazy just now, and after noticing the familiar sense of forcelessness caused by the anesthetic, he finally spoke to the familiar researcher beside him for the first time.
"Gu Yanzhi?...Is your name Gu Yanzhi right?"
Her tail gradually softened under the effect of the anesthetic, and her whole body slowly fell to the bottom of the water like a withered leaf, her amber eyes fixed on the researcher who had just recovered from his senses.
"Please... save my child."
……
Fu Xinglan went to the bathroom to look for it, asked the attendants along the way, and learned that Chao Chao had indeed come, but had left long ago.
Standing at the entrance of the banquet hall, he caught sight of the eldest prince in the center—the latter met his eyes and raised his glass gracefully.
Fu Xinglan seemed to have confirmed something suddenly, but his expression calmed down.
The first prince's specious words just now may not have confirmed his and Wid's suspicions about the tide before...
It is to pave the way for the hands and feet that will be moved later.
Fu Xinglan closed her eyes quietly, raised her hand and sent a message to a certain number.
The reply from the other party came back soon: [Are you sure? ?If the guess is wrong, if the tide is really Yin Beichen's trap, my identity will be exposed, and the previous plan will be in vain. ] The lights of the entire venue suddenly changed.
As the music of the dance gradually started, two beams of chasing light shot down from the top of the head, one beam illuminated the area where Fu Xinglan was located, and the other beam illuminated the wide marble staircase.
The princess in a gorgeous dress walked down the stairs, saw him looking up, and smiled gracefully at him, just like a wonderful fairy tale about a prince and a princess.
The princess's skirt is too wide and gorgeous, obviously it is not easy to move, if it is an ordinary gentleman, it is time to step forward and hold the princess's hand.
However, Fu Xinglan stood still.
Not only that, but as if he didn't notice the light change at all, he was still replying to the message with a blank expression.
[Sure. ] The other party quickly replied: [Well, you are the boss, you have the final say. ] After a while, Fang Fang sent another series of simple previous explanations, and finally said: [The person has been found, and his life is not in danger, but it is a little troublesome to bring it out, wait for me for a while. ] Fu Xinglan looked at ten lines at a glance, then raised his eyes, piercing the opposite side with sharp eyes.
The fourth princess had waited for a long while and saw no response from him, so her expression turned pale.
She was extremely embarrassed under the spotlight, and the eldest lady was about to lose her temper, so she looked up and met Fu Xinglan's eyes.
The girl's heart suddenly jumped, as if she was being targeted by some terrifying monster, cold sweat broke out from her back.
what happened?
Why did she suddenly have the illusion that Fu Xinglan already knew everything? ?
Impossible, only ten minutes have passed, how could Fu Xinglan know? !
If you really know...then the strength that this man hides is a bit too scary...
Fu Xinglan didn't plan to spend too much effort on Yin Dongxue at all. Yin Dongxue was just a spoiled and bad-tempered young lady, and she would have the courage to attack Chao Chao directly. It is impossible to not have Yin Beichen's backing behind her.
He knew that the old emperor was seriously ill and would soon decide the heir to the throne. Therefore, just like the second prince wanted him to attend the wedding, the eldest prince was eager to get in touch with him.
Fu Xinglan originally only thought that Yin Beichen was not sure about his relationship with Chao Chao, so he just tried it in advance, and therefore, he did not hide his importance for Chao Chao in his speech.
Yin Beichen is not a brainless person. If he wants to seek cooperation, he should not anger him by attacking Chao Chao. In addition, in order to track down the matter of mc1, Fu Xinglan has already "arranged" in the castle, so he will let Chao Chao go out at ease...
But he never expected that the eldest prince would not hesitate to use such "excessive means" and wanted him to dance with the princess in full view?
I'm afraid that the situation of the old emperor is very bad, and the choice of the crown prince will be finalized in only a few days...
But no matter what it is, it is not the reason for this person to tamper with the tide.
Fu Xinglan's domineering pheromone, which belongs to the top alpha, leaks out with the ups and downs of emotions. Even if there is only a little bit, the powerful deterrent force will also deter the surrounding people.
Fu Xinglan raised his hand and rubbed his forehead, almost couldn't hold back his curse.
Shen Yan: "What?"
"It's nothing." Fu Xinglan was expressionless, "I just think you and Luo Yunzhou are a good match in some aspects." For example, blind confidence in my self-control...
Fu Xinglan: "You really don't think about him?"
Shen Yan was also expressionless: "...No, thank you."
The tide set off a day later than them, and finally arrived before the dance began.
Wearing the dress prepared by the butler, when he got out of the car in a hurry, Tidal felt like Cinderella who had been enchanted, riding a pumpkin carriage and rushing over.
Unlike Cinderella, his prince can find him from the crowd at a glance without using a crystal slipper.
Fu Xinglan stretched out his hand, waiting for him to obediently hand it over to her, and asked with downcast eyes, "Are you tired?"
Tide was a little nervous, probably because he was too excited. Although he barely fell asleep on the spaceship last night, he didn't feel tired at all now. He shook his head and said, "I'm not tired."
Fu Xinglan nodded, helped him straighten a small tuft of hair on the top of his head, and led the person into the venue, ignoring countless scrutinizing eyes.
Fu Xinglan, just looking at his brows and eyes is completely deep and handsome like an imperial nobleman, and he is probably in a good mood tonight, with a smile on his lips, and his inhuman indifference is perfectly restrained by a well-tailored suit. On the contrary, it brings out a kind of sharp mature charm.
He is the youngest marshal of the federation, and an alpha of S rank, no matter his identity or appearance, he is undisputedly top.
Many nobles in the empire wanted to make friends with him, but they had already heard about his temper. When they saw him outside, almost no one dared to speak to him.
At this time, there was that good-looking boy beside him, and the aura around the marshal became much softer. The usual arrogance and indifference were restrained just right, but instead, the casualness that was unconsciously leaked became a natural suave.
The eyes of all the people in the audience were more or less looking at this side. At first, they were naturally attracted by Fu Xinglan, but after watching, many eyes fell on Chao Chao.
Those who can come to the First Prince's banquet are all self-identified, and they have naturally seen many good-looking men and women. It stands to reason that no matter how stunning Chao Chao looks, no one will dare to covet him. You should look back in time to avoid misunderstanding.
But I don't know why, I just can't move my eyes.
In the corner upstairs, the fourth princess tugged at the corner of the eldest prince's clothes: "Brother?"
She followed her brother's gaze into the hall, and critically looked up and down the boy standing beside Fu Xinglan. While resentful, she had to admit that boys do have the capital to attract people's attention.
Chao Chao and Fu Xinglan's clothes are a complete set, and they look especially good when they stand together so intimately.
Tidal has a slender waist and long legs, and his side profile is exquisite and unusual, so good-looking that he shines in the crowd, and what's more rare is that he has an amiable temperament.
He stood there like a little lamb that had strayed into a pack of hungry wolves. He was soft and cute and didn't know the danger. He thought he was hiding and looked around with wide-eyed and curious eyes. Suddenly he raised his head and stared at him upstairs. Someone's eyes met.
The man was wearing a luxurious dress, holding a wine glass, leaning sideways on the railing on the second floor and looking down, even if he was standing casually, he couldn't hide his elegant and extravagant air, obviously his status was not low.
Chao Chao seemed to be taken aback for a moment, and immediately looked away.
The eldest prince was slightly startled, then seemed to realize something, first showed a look of surprise, and soon narrowed his eyes slowly with interest.
He turned around and whispered something to the guard beside him. The latter seemed a little surprised, but immediately calmed down and took the order to leave.
"Why?" The fourth princess said with a bit of a taste in her tone, "You also have a crush on that little fairy?"
Yin Beichen curled his lips into a smile, and comforted her: "I just think...we are really destined."
He leaned over and whispered something in his sister's ear.
The girl's eyes widened in an instant, and the look she looked at Chao Chao changed from surprise to sarcasm, and her tone changed immediately: "That's fine, you snatch him and keep him in your fish tank, Fu Xinglan is mine, just right!"
She rolled her eyes, and then looked down with obvious contempt and contempt, and seemed to think of some interesting gameplay, so she couldn't help but curl her lips.
Chapter 19 The eldest prince knew his younger sister very well, and he guessed her thoughts almost instantly. He raised his glass and took a sip of wine, but he didn't intend to stop him.
He raised his eyes to look at his second younger brother who was walking towards Fu Xinglan, and then at Yin Nanlu who was by Yin Xining's side - if his family could have such an outstanding younger sister to help him wholeheartedly, I'm afraid he would have easily achieved what he wanted. I wish...
He glanced at his younger sister who was quietly explaining to the attendant, who was obviously planning some bad idea, and shook his head after a while.
Forget it, Yin Dongxue, who can't hide his thoughts, is more suitable to live under his protection. If it were Yin Nanlu, he might be killed early in the morning because of his suspicion and jealousy...
Downstairs, under the guidance of Yin Nanlu, Yin Xining went to Fu Xinglan to say hello, and then he didn't know what to say.
He didn't like this kind of activities very much, and Lotter couldn't come because he had something to do, and there were few people to adjust the atmosphere, so he couldn't find a suitable topic.If he hadn't been forced by his sister, he would have almost escaped early in the morning with the pretext of preparing for the wedding.
Fortunately, Yin Nanlu was also aware of his brother's habit, so he quickly picked up the topic and started chatting.
It wasn't chatting with Fu Xinglan, but obviously chatting with Chao Chao on purpose, and it seemed that he was conquered by the beauty of the little mermaid.
With a dark face, Fu Xinglan pulled Chao Tide behind him, cutting off the sight communication between the two: "The third princess respects herself."
"Call me aunt." Yin Nanlu glanced at him, "I heard that you are married, so why is it that aunt looks at your nephew and daughter-in-law?"
Fu Xinglan: "..."
Fu Xinglan didn't know if she was pleased by the phrase "nephew and daughter-in-law", but she didn't stop her.
However, Fu Xinglan and Yin Nanlu were not at odds, and without saying a few words, they started arguing again, and even Chao Chao felt the tension in the atmosphere. Fortunately, the two were used to ridiculing each other since they were young, and they were far from falling out.
What I have to admit is that Fu Xinglan has always regarded Yin Nanlu as an opponent more than the eldest prince and the second prince.
Although there may be elements of the eldest prince hiding his power and biding his time, trying to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger, but in terms of many principles of life, even if they have different positions, Yin Nanlu is one of the few who can sympathize with Fu Xinglan.
Either the matter of mk23 came from the hands of the second prince Yin Xining, or it must be a trump card used to seize the throne that one of the other princes took pains to hide.
And bringing this matter to him, on the surface, sold him a good deal, but in fact-whether or not the First Legion is involved in the imperial prince's dispute, they will definitely intervene in the matter of mc1's leak. Yin Xining is equivalent to One more natural ally.
Even if Fu Xinglan still didn't bother to come to the empire to attend the wedding in the end, the two parties were already bound in fact.
This kind of scheming method that makes people have to board a pirate ship can't be thought of by Yin Xining at first glance, it can only come from Yin Nanlu's plan.
Although Fu Xinglan said that he was too lazy to intervene in their struggle for reserves, he still felt a little pity——Yin Beichen was evil-minded, and Yin Xining was indecisive. To be honest, Yin Nanlu was indeed the most suitable one to take the lead.
Lotter is simply a disaster for the country and the demon concubine, delaying the queen's career...
Yin Nanlu and Fu Xinglan kept silent about a lot of things. They didn't talk for long. In order to prevent the future long-term cooperation from being broken up in advance due to a disagreement, they broke up tacitly soon.
As soon as the people left, the fourth princess dragged her brother over.
The tide is particularly sensitive to the sight, and before anyone approached, he looked back along the way, but without thinking, he met the eldest prince's eyes again.
Yin Beichen is also a high-level alpha, and his appearance is naturally handsome. Unlike Fu Xinglan's aura of not getting close to strangers, this eldest prince is polite and polite to everyone, with a gentle smile on his face all the time. Looking at it, she nodded gracefully at him, looking very easy to get along with.
For some reason, Chao Chao suddenly had the illusion that he was being watched by some dangerous animal, so he took a step back unconsciously, and moved closer to Fu Xinglan.
With such a movement, he immediately attracted the attention of the two oncoming people.
The fourth princess, as the rare omega of the royal family, was already so pitiful to me, but now she purposely glanced at him lightly, her aggrieved and forbearing appearance made her even more sympathetic.
She turned her head to look at Fu Xinglan dejectedly, and said softly, "Brother Xinglan... Is it because of him that you unilaterally broke up our engagement?"
Tide was drawn back to focus, slightly startled.
engagement?
He couldn't help turning his head quietly to observe Fu Xinglan's expression.
Fu Xinglan squeezed his hand secretly, and looked at Yin Dongxue with very cold eyes: "I have never agreed to any marriage contract. I didn't count it before. Now that I am married, the princess doesn't have to take it to heart."
The fourth princess didn't seem to expect him to be so merciless, her eyes turned red, and her voice was choked with sobs: "You..."
She quickly glanced at Tidal, bit her lip, obviously extremely ashamed and angry, "Am I really that bad?! I have loved you with all my heart for 20 years... Now that you are like this, they are all laughing at me behind my back, after I How do you get married?"
Chao's expression changed, as if he couldn't bear it.
Fu Xinglan sneered inwardly.
Who dares to laugh at you behind your back?You haven't pulled out your tongue yet.
He knew very well that this fourth princess was domineering since she was a child, and she had the kind of temperament that she would grab what she liked and never cherish it after she got it.
Fu Xinglan used to see her bullying people by virtue of her status. At first, she thought she was young and ignorant, so she kindly persuaded her a few words. Later, she found that she was being obedient in front of her, but she used even more vicious methods to take revenge on innocent people behind her back. He completely lost patience with the fourth princess.
However, Chao Chao didn't know the inside story, and the girl looked pitiful, obviously successfully deceived by appearances.
But the girl opposite suddenly turned to look at him: "Excuse me, can I have a few words with Brother Xinglan alone?"
Tide froze for a moment.
He paused in his heart - even if he couldn't bear to see girls feel sad, he didn't want to give up Fu Xinglan to others at all...
"Sorry, not quite..." Convenient.
Before Chao Chao finished speaking, he felt his palms warm up. Fu Xinglan held his hand, raised his head and refused, "I have nothing to tell you."
The fourth princess' eyes widened in disbelief, and the sockets of her eyes turned red instantly: "Fu Xinglan!"
Fu Xinglan said expressionlessly: "If you talk to me alone now, aren't you afraid that more people will laugh at you and you won't be able to marry in the future?"
The fourth princess choked immediately: "..."
The girl's expression changed a few times. Seeing that the young lady was about to lose her temper, the eldest prince finally said softly, "Xiaoxue. Don't be willful."
The fourth princess looked back at her elder brother, then looked at Fu Xinglan and Chao Chao sadly, did not say any more, stomped her feet, turned her head and left.
The eldest prince did not intend to follow and leave.
Fu Xinglan glanced at him coldly: "Your Majesty, won't you follow me?"
"No hurry," the First Prince smiled, "I really want to talk to the Marshal, and you must have some questions to confirm with me, right?"
His eyes fell on Tidal, and he quickly moved back, adding meaningfully, "For example, some coincidences?"
Fu Xinglan's eyes moved slightly.
The two stared at each other silently for a few seconds in the room where they were toasting.
Chao Chao keenly sensed that the atmosphere was not right, and pulled Fu Xinglan sensibly: "I just want to go to the bathroom, so you talk first, I'll be back later?"
Fu Xinglan hesitated for a moment, exchanged glances with the guards of the First Legion guarding the door, and finally nodded: "Okay."
The eldest prince was actually the first among all the princes to come into contact with Fu Xinglan. Fu Xinglan wasn't sure if he really had any secrets about the tidal background, so he had to deal with him patiently.
However, this person was very tactful, and he circled back and forth speciously with him, but he didn't say a word.
On the surface, it seems to be implying that only with the cooperation of the First Legion, Tide will always belong to Fu Xinglan, but in fact, he is vague about the origin of Tide, and the words only revolve around his identity as a mermaid reformer.
If Chao Chao is really the Xia family, and the First Prince has participated in the conspiracy, he must have joined forces with the Third Legion. At this time, it is better to directly reveal Chao Chao's identity, so as to shake him even more.
But now it's more like deliberately misleading him along the lines...
Fu Xinglan's eyes darkened.
It's a pity that he had already made up his mind when he ordered Tidal to come to the empire—even if Tidal is really a spy sent by the Third Legion|, so what?
Just grab it.
When he dealt with the eldest prince, he kept paying attention to the time, and seeing that the guards of his own army did not come back, he thought it was because the castle was too big, or Tide went out curiously.
It wasn't until a quarter of an hour later that the eldest prince was still pulling him endlessly, that Fu Xinglan frowned, vaguely realizing that something had happened.
At the same time, the cover on Tide's head was finally lifted, and the princess in front of him was recognized at a glance.
He frowned, and "woo hoo" struggled to get the tape off his hands and mouth.
The fourth princess raised her chin, her expression was completely different from that in the banquet hall just now.
She chuckled lightly, and said in a haughty voice, "Do you know what mermaids are used for among our nobles?"
tidal:"??"
Before he could react, the woman raised her foot and suddenly kicked him backwards into the water.
Tide was taken aback.
Seeing his panic expression, the fourth princess sneered: "Don't you know? Then you should ask them yourself..."
Chao Chao held his breath subconsciously, and realized that his tail was about to jump out uncontrollably, so nervous that his heart was about to jump out.
He hurriedly turned his head, only to see a bright blue fish tail suddenly streaking across the dark depths of the water...
This place is like a huge fish tank, and more and more deformed mermaids are protruding from the darkness.
Some of them are festered, some are covered with scars, and some are skinny...
At this time, as if seeing a long-lost prey, they all rushed to this side, revealing sharp minions...
Chapter 20 The gorgeous ball was held on the second floor of the castle, and no one heard the faint cry for help from the central reservoir of the research institute deep underground.
The tide fell into the water with a "plop", subconsciously gritted its teeth and endured the instinct of change.
He had already figured out the cause and effect in a few sentences, he just felt that he could no longer transform into a girl who was full of hatred in front of him, and there was still tape wrapped around his legs, if he transformed into his flesh, it would cause even more damage , I really can't make it back to the dance.
He hadn't actually tried to control his form switching before, but this was the first time he tried, he was unavoidably unskilled in the panic, and the ear fins and gills changed uncontrollably as he gradually sank and became hypoxic.
Fortunately, probably because of the high concentration of attention, Chao Chao finally felt some sensations, and the legs did not transform into tails in the first place.
He tried his best to make his skin smoother and more delicate. With the help of water weakening the glue, the tape that bound him was easier to fall off, and it was loosened after a few strokes.
The fourth princess seemed to be in a hurry to get back to the ball, not interested in watching him being bitten to death, so she quickly turned her head and led people away.
Chao Tide dodged several attacks under the water in embarrassment, and finally waited until those people came out of sight before the irrational mermaids surrounded him completely.
In the next second, he completely broke away from the tape and released his tail.
Tide seemed to hold his breath, and the drowning person who finally recovered at the last second, with a pale face and no time to catch his breath, turned over nimbly again, struggled to be bitten a few times, found the gap, and quickly escaped from the encirclement.
He inevitably suffered some injuries on his arms, but fortunately, the material of the dress was good enough to barely block some attacks.
Tide's tail was healthier and more powerful than those of the experimental ones, and its swimming speed was naturally much faster, leaving the pursuers behind in a few breaths.
It's a pity that there are obviously not only a few mermaids in this huge reservoir.
Soon, other mermaids appeared in the dark water. Not only the front, but almost all the mermaids in all directions were startled by the movement here and swam towards him.
Chao Chao's heart was beating wildly, and he tried several times to communicate with them, but all failed.
If you think about it, you can guess that if these mermaids have enough wisdom, even if they can only reach the level of being pets, they will not be locked up in a big fish tank so carelessly...
He swam fast, but was still quickly surrounded again. The irrational deformed mermaid scratched his tail fiercely, and the sharp nails toppled the fish scales, leaving a hideous wound on the side.
The caught fish scales fluttered and fell to the bottom of the tank.
"what!!"
Tidal was so painful that he instinctively let out an exclamation.
He didn't know that his subconscious call that didn't belong to humans was transmitted along with the water waves, causing a beautiful mermaid in a certain laboratory to suddenly open its eyes...
The scale of this underground royal secret research institute is astonishing.
The test area surrounded the central giant fish tank in a ring, and in each laboratory, a small area was divided from the central reservoir with tempered glass to restrict the movement of the mermaid being tested.
Ten minutes ago, there was silence in the largest research room in the center.
In the spacious and clean house, a huge fish tank occupies the entire wall facing the door.I don’t know where the lighting is installed in the water, and through the colorful waves, it slowly shines on the surrounding ceilings and walls, giving the people in the room a neatly ironed white coat, reflecting a strange light.
What is more eye-catching is the mermaid with a gorgeous tail in the center of the tank.
It was an extremely beautiful female mermaid, wearing a gauze covered with gorgeous shells and pearls, in which her graceful figure loomed.
The slender fish tail swayed slightly with the water flow, and the stretched tail fin reflected fine scales, like the most gorgeous and luxurious gauze skirt in the world.
The door of the laboratory made two beeps, and two researchers also wearing white coats walked in, one of whom seemed to be introducing something to the other, and was talking incessantly.
"Hey, Chengfeng, do you have any plans for this weekend? If not, can you help me be on duty? I promised my girlfriend to take her to the movies..."
The entrusted researcher seemed a little helpless, and reminded: "You also said something happened last week and changed shifts with me..."
"I really have something to do," the old researcher said while operating the equipment, glanced at the kits brought over, took out one and inserted it into the trough, "You're single, you're fine on weekends anyway! I'll change it!"
The two looked at the edge of the water tank, and the needle connected to the thin tube protruded and pierced into the back of the mermaid's neck.
The man explained proudly while proficient in operation, "Besides, although you have a high degree of education, you are still a newcomer after all, so you just need more time to get familiar with it! Otherwise, wouldn't you come here today to learn from me?"
Hearing this, Ji Chengfeng had no choice but to agree: "Okay then, give me your work card."
The researcher who operated it was immediately happy: "Thank you!"
Seeing that Ji Chengfeng swiped his work card and clocked in quickly, the old researcher immediately reciprocated and instructed, "Look here, inject the catalyst directly into the vicinity of the gland, and the effect will be very fast, and you don't need to work hard to extract the pheromones later. Changed position."
Ji Chengfeng's attention has been attracted by the mermaid in the tank.
The beautiful mermaid has always closed her eyes quietly from the very beginning, from the contours of her eyebrows and eyes, to her slender arms, to the curve of her waist and hips, every inch of the arc is as beautiful as if carefully carved by a god.
It's just that following the researcher's operation, Ruxue's skin began to turn red little by little under the action of the drug, and her brows also frowned, obviously feeling a little uncomfortable.
Ji Chengfeng subconsciously approached the fish tank, put his hands on the tank wall, and a look of worry flashed in his eyes.
The old researcher looked at him distractedly, and said with a smile, "It's pretty, isn't it? But don't think about it, do you know how much she's worth?"
"Not to mention the value of the extracted pheromones, all the modified mermaid genes on the black market in the past 20 years have basically come from her."
Ji Chengfeng frowned and said, "She doesn't look very well..."
"Pfft," the researcher said with a smile, "it's just an experimental product, why are you so distracted? Do you care whether the mice in the laboratory are comfortable or not? Besides, isn't it normal to have a strong reaction? mk28 is a strong drug..."
"mk28?" Ji Chengfeng was puzzled, "Isn't it 23?"
"Hey!" The researcher curled his lips, showing an annoyed expression that he had accidentally slipped his mouth.
He looked around and lowered his voice: "The higher-ups think the progress is too slow, so they force them to speed up."
"Professor Gu strongly disagrees, saying that the reagent is still in the experimental stage and will cause danger to the mermaid... You also know that Professor Gu has a temper, and he quarreled with the higher-ups, and as a result..." He shrugged, "The arms can't twist the thighs, I have been banned from coming to the laboratory these days."
Seeing the mermaid's increasingly painful expression, Ji Chengfeng couldn't help frowning slightly.
The professor Gu mentioned by the researcher is named Gu Yanzhi, and he is one of the persons in charge of the entire project, mainly researching mermaids.
Probably because he was too young compared to the other leaders, coupled with his indifferent personality and strict requirements, many researchers were very afraid of him, and usually walked around when they saw him from a distance, which made Professor Gu even more difficult to see. Close, even eating is always alone.
After Ji Chengfeng tried to strike up a conversation and was rejected, the researchers who were acquainted with him once told him in private: "Stay away from Professor Gu", "Professor Gu is very cold", "Look, he will stare at you again later"!
As expected, Ji Chengfeng was stared at, but Gu Yanzhi didn't say anything to him. Instead, he turned his head and said sternly to all the "old seniors" who ordered him to run errands to help: "Are you guys without hands?"
The atmosphere at the scene was too embarrassing, so Ji Chengfeng had no choice but to smooth things over, saying that it didn't matter, and he had to get familiar with the new environment in the first place.
Then Gu Yanzhi glared at him coldly again, and walked away with his head raised, as if he was angry.
Ji Chengfeng has been trying to apologize since then, trying to explain several times that he knew his kindness, but Gu Yanzhi always turned his head and left when he saw him.
Later, probably because he was so annoyed that he finally broke out in silence, and said angrily, "Don't you know that they all like to push their feet? Your good temper will only make you take it for granted!"
Ji Chengfeng was stunned by the yelling, and said after considering, "So... are you angry for me?"
Gu Yanzhi visibly froze for a moment, then turned cold for an instant, and stormed away angrily.
Ji Chengfeng's eyes stopped on his obviously red ears, and he didn't recover until he was completely invisible.
However, Gu Yanzhi is really good-looking, although he is not easy to get along with, there are still many people who have other thoughts.
The old researcher was obviously one of them.
He looked around, as if suddenly interested in gossip: "Hey, I heard that Professor Gu is actually an omega..."
He winked at Ji Chengfeng, "It's a pity that our betas can't smell pheromones, otherwise I really want to smell what this iceberg beauty smells like..."
"It would be nice to see him in heat, the way he usually looks above his head, and the way he's forced to kneel at the man's feet begging for mercy, tsk tsk tsk, just thinking about it makes me feel moved!"
Ji Chengfeng couldn't take it anymore, he frowned and interrupted: "Don't talk about this kind of thing behind your back."
The old researcher clicked his tongue rather bored, seeing that the machine was working normally, he took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket: "Forget it, I'm going out to smoke a cigarette, you keep an eye on it..."
The researcher soon went out of the laboratory to goof off.
Ji Chengfeng kept observing the mermaid's reaction, and couldn't help but approach the fish tank again.
"Are you uncomfortable?" He tapped on the tank wall lightly and whispered, "Can you speak? Can you understand me?"
The mermaid didn't respond.
Ji Chengfeng thought about it for a while, and continued his efforts: "If you feel very uncomfortable, I can think of a way... I didn't expect that they would suddenly try a new reagent today, and I don't know if the previous inhibitor is still useful..."
He rambled on for a long while, until he received some news, then returned to the console, swiped the old researcher's card, called up the research institute's monitoring map of the experimental product, squinted his eyes and studied.
"You really can't talk? If you could..."
But I heard a voice beside me say coldly: "I have been in the institute for three years, and I have never heard her speak."
Ji Chengfeng was startled, and turned to look to the side.
There is the corner of the fish tank, which is separated from the operating table by a curtain, and it is impossible to see if someone is hiding without going around the fish tank.
And Gu Yanzhi, who was wearing a white coat, stood there, as if he had been here since before they came in.
Ji Chengfeng was a little surprised, turned his head to look at the door, and quickly regained his composure.
He thought for a while, and didn't ask the meaningless question of why you are here, and followed the other party to turn his gaze back to the mermaid in the tank: "Is she intelligent?"
Gu Yanzhi observed the state of the mermaid, frowned slightly, and put one palm on the fish tank, no emotion could be heard in his voice: "Of course, she is different from other modified mermaids you have seen, she is..."
Before he could finish his sentence, the mermaid who had kept his eyes closed before suddenly opened them wide.
Both of them in the lab are a meal.
However, before they could say anything, the mermaid in the tank suddenly opened its mouth and let out a shrill scream that didn't resemble a human being. Then it frantically pulled out all kinds of needles stuck in its body, and hit it hard with a "boom". on the back glass.
Gu Yanzhi's pupils suddenly dilated, and he subconsciously shouted, "Be careful!"
Chapter 21 Blood gushes out from various wounds where the mermaid violently pulled out the needles. With her violent movements, a small area of water is instantly dyed red.
Both Gu Yanzhi and Ji Chengfeng were stunned.
Ji Chengfeng's first reaction was that there was a problem with the new reagent, and he rushed to the operating table to prepare for the injection of the mermaid inhibitor, but the next second he remembered that all the needles had been pulled out by the mermaid.
His fingers paused hesitantly on the button for releasing high-concentration sedatives—the mermaid had just been injected with a new type of drug, and rashly ingesting high-concentration sedatives would probably have an impact on the body.
However, the mermaid in the tank was still bumping against the inner tank wall, and every time it hit, a piece of blood spilled from her lips.
Ji Chengfeng knew that it was connected to the central reservoir, and the hardness of the tank wall was not that of flesh and blood, even if it was loaded with live ammunition, it would not be able to be smashed open with one or two blows.
Seemingly finding that the tank wall could not be broken, the mermaid screamed again.
This sound was obviously more powerful than the previous one, and Ji Chengfeng felt a "buzz" in his head, as if someone had punched him hard. When he recovered, the finger that was just hanging over the button had already Because of the lack of strength, I pressed it down.
Ji Chengfeng raised his head hastily.
However, Gu Yanzhi had also fallen in front of the fish tank, and the mermaid had already started to lose strength due to the strong calming effect, and was slowly falling in front of Gu Yanzhi through a layer of tempered glass.
Ji Chengfeng hadn't fully recovered yet, he was dizzy, his vision blurred, and he could only vaguely see the lips of the beautiful mermaid fluttering, as if he had said something to Gu Yanzhi...
Ji Chengfeng shook his head, and when he came back to his senses, he saw that Gu Yanzhi had already supported the wall of the vat, struggling to get up from the ground.
Gu Yanzhi raised his hand and pressed his temple, and then took another look.
Seemingly seeing that the indicator light for releasing anesthesia had come on, Gu Yanzhi didn't say anything else, but turned to Ji Chengfeng and said, "When someone asks, just say you haven't seen me."
Then it was too late for him to agree, so he hurried out of the laboratory before someone arrived.
Neither Chao Chao nor Ji Chengfeng knew—the beautiful mermaid hit the tank wall like crazy just now, and after noticing the familiar sense of forcelessness caused by the anesthetic, he finally spoke to the familiar researcher beside him for the first time.
"Gu Yanzhi?...Is your name Gu Yanzhi right?"
Her tail gradually softened under the effect of the anesthetic, and her whole body slowly fell to the bottom of the water like a withered leaf, her amber eyes fixed on the researcher who had just recovered from his senses.
"Please... save my child."
……
Fu Xinglan went to the bathroom to look for it, asked the attendants along the way, and learned that Chao Chao had indeed come, but had left long ago.
Standing at the entrance of the banquet hall, he caught sight of the eldest prince in the center—the latter met his eyes and raised his glass gracefully.
Fu Xinglan seemed to have confirmed something suddenly, but his expression calmed down.
The first prince's specious words just now may not have confirmed his and Wid's suspicions about the tide before...
It is to pave the way for the hands and feet that will be moved later.
Fu Xinglan closed her eyes quietly, raised her hand and sent a message to a certain number.
The reply from the other party came back soon: [Are you sure? ?If the guess is wrong, if the tide is really Yin Beichen's trap, my identity will be exposed, and the previous plan will be in vain. ] The lights of the entire venue suddenly changed.
As the music of the dance gradually started, two beams of chasing light shot down from the top of the head, one beam illuminated the area where Fu Xinglan was located, and the other beam illuminated the wide marble staircase.
The princess in a gorgeous dress walked down the stairs, saw him looking up, and smiled gracefully at him, just like a wonderful fairy tale about a prince and a princess.
The princess's skirt is too wide and gorgeous, obviously it is not easy to move, if it is an ordinary gentleman, it is time to step forward and hold the princess's hand.
However, Fu Xinglan stood still.
Not only that, but as if he didn't notice the light change at all, he was still replying to the message with a blank expression.
[Sure. ] The other party quickly replied: [Well, you are the boss, you have the final say. ] After a while, Fang Fang sent another series of simple previous explanations, and finally said: [The person has been found, and his life is not in danger, but it is a little troublesome to bring it out, wait for me for a while. ] Fu Xinglan looked at ten lines at a glance, then raised his eyes, piercing the opposite side with sharp eyes.
The fourth princess had waited for a long while and saw no response from him, so her expression turned pale.
She was extremely embarrassed under the spotlight, and the eldest lady was about to lose her temper, so she looked up and met Fu Xinglan's eyes.
The girl's heart suddenly jumped, as if she was being targeted by some terrifying monster, cold sweat broke out from her back.
what happened?
Why did she suddenly have the illusion that Fu Xinglan already knew everything? ?
Impossible, only ten minutes have passed, how could Fu Xinglan know? !
If you really know...then the strength that this man hides is a bit too scary...
Fu Xinglan didn't plan to spend too much effort on Yin Dongxue at all. Yin Dongxue was just a spoiled and bad-tempered young lady, and she would have the courage to attack Chao Chao directly. It is impossible to not have Yin Beichen's backing behind her.
He knew that the old emperor was seriously ill and would soon decide the heir to the throne. Therefore, just like the second prince wanted him to attend the wedding, the eldest prince was eager to get in touch with him.
Fu Xinglan originally only thought that Yin Beichen was not sure about his relationship with Chao Chao, so he just tried it in advance, and therefore, he did not hide his importance for Chao Chao in his speech.
Yin Beichen is not a brainless person. If he wants to seek cooperation, he should not anger him by attacking Chao Chao. In addition, in order to track down the matter of mc1, Fu Xinglan has already "arranged" in the castle, so he will let Chao Chao go out at ease...
But he never expected that the eldest prince would not hesitate to use such "excessive means" and wanted him to dance with the princess in full view?
I'm afraid that the situation of the old emperor is very bad, and the choice of the crown prince will be finalized in only a few days...
But no matter what it is, it is not the reason for this person to tamper with the tide.
Fu Xinglan's domineering pheromone, which belongs to the top alpha, leaks out with the ups and downs of emotions. Even if there is only a little bit, the powerful deterrent force will also deter the surrounding people.
