Mermaid [Interstellar]

Chapter 22 Chapter 22

Fifth Sister thinks that Duke Alice is a conscientious Starfield Master.The specific performance is that she has contributed to the development of the entire star field, including their remote blue star.

"She is a good person." Fifth Sister commented.

The third sister smiled: "She is indeed a nice person, Pearl has seen her before."

Fifth Sister looked over curiously and asked, "What is Duke Alice like?"

what kind?Of course it is human-like, with two eyes and one mouth, two ears and one nose, and a gentle and beautiful smile, with eyes bent into two crescents.

Pearl felt that if Fifth Sister asked this question, it would be the same as if she hadn't asked it, and it didn't have the meaning of answering it.

Pearl: "You'll know when you see it."

"See..." Fifth Sister's voice suddenly became weaker, "Is it... that..."

Fifth Sister's voice weakened, so weak that she could hardly hear it.

"Huh?" Pearl turned around suspiciously, but bumped into a dark pool of water.

The fifth sister greeted in a panic: "Your Excellency."

Alice nodded: "What a coincidence."

Third Sister: "Where are you going to go shopping? The development of Atlantis these years depends on your support. Although it is not as good as Yunhaixing, the scenery is not inferior to Yunhaixing. Our place is also unique."

Alice looked at the three sisters, raised the corners of her mouth slightly and said slowly: "I didn't want to go anywhere, so I just wandered around, and I met you unexpectedly."

"Actually, I haven't been here for a long time, so I just walked around casually—where are you going?" Alice glanced at Pearl's hand holding the skirt of the third sister's clothes, and retracted her stepping foot.

Alice: "Do you have any special features here?"

Is this asking them to be tour guides?

The third sister was stunned for a moment, and quickly realized: "This is the first time for our little sister—Pearl to come to Atlantis. I will take her as a tour guide. If you want, I will take you around. go?"

Alice: "Following you too?"

Third Sister: "If you don't mind."

Alice nodded: "It's troublesome."

Because the Duke joined, Fifth Sister was not in a hurry to leave. She walked beside Alice and added a sentence or two to Third Sister's explanation—she didn't have enough knowledge to talk about her tour experience.

The Duke's expression did not change, he remained indifferent, listening to the third sister's explanation seriously, nodding occasionally, without interjecting, and just kept listening.

After shopping around, a few people found a public chair in the square and sat down. This is a fountain square. In addition to a large fountain in the center, there are also several small fountains around. The air in the whole square is full of moisture, even at noon. hot.

Pearl quietly touched his stomach—very hungry.The third sister next to her was still introducing the square. As a commercial center, there was still a lot to introduce about the square. The fifth sister followed suit and tried to show her sense of humor.

When will it be over... Pearl thought absently.

"Are you hungry?" Alice asked suddenly.

Pearl didn't react at once, and it took a while to realize that Alice was asking her. The third sister stopped introducing her, and the fifth sister also turned to look at her.

——They looked like they wanted to keep going.

Pearl: "Actually...it's okay."

Alice: "It's my fault that I forgot the time... How about we go to dinner?"

Pearl was a little dazed, and the Duke's expression suddenly softened, and he was no longer as indifferent as before.

It must be too hungry...Pearl thought.

"In this case, how about we eat nearby?" The third sister made a suggestion, asking everyone, but looking at Alice - as long as Alice agrees, the opinions of others are not important.

Alice: "I want to invite you to try other alien delicacies. There don't seem to be many alien restaurants on Blue Star—are you interested?"

Fifth Sister was very excited, and first agreed: "Okay, okay, where are we going to eat?"

"Go to the Empire's office in Blue Star, I'll stay there." Alice had a faint smile in her eyes, and she stretched out her hand in front of Pearl as an invitation, "I don't know if I have the honor?"

Pearl blinked and nodded in agreement.

The corners of the Duchess's mouth curled up slightly, her eyes were as black as ink, and her outstretched hand glowed white in the sun—her hand hasn't been retracted yet, do you want her to touch it?

The third sister looked at Pearl nervously, her throat moved slightly.

Pelton paused, his hands trembling slightly: "Okay."

As soon as she put her hand on it, Alice grabbed it. The palm of the Duke's hand was warm, which was different from the cool body temperature of the mermaid.The palms of her hands were wrapped tightly by her, and the heat seemed to flow continuously from the hands to the whole body.

Pearl's tail twitched suddenly—she felt as if she had been electrified all over.

Alice looked at Pearl with a smile, and her eyes turned into crescent moons.

She said: "You seem to be very quiet today, and you didn't say a few words."

The walker is set to automatic mode and can walk slowly with Alice holding the hand.The walker is in the shape of a long cylinder. When necessary, the handle can be extended for people to push. The inside is usually filled with water to take care of the mermaid's tail.

Pearl felt that she must have accidentally pressed the heating button, and the water inside was getting hotter and hotter.

The mermaid's body temperature was low, but her palms were rarely sweating.

Will he be disgusted by the Duke...

Pearl wanted to sneak a look at Alice, but when she looked up, she saw that Alice was looking at her too.

Was this captured?

Pearl's heart was beating like a drum, and her tongue was dry: "I feel a little hot."

It's not just hot, Pearl feels like he's going to be cooked!

"Hot?" Alice looked up at the sky, "Is the weather okay now... how do you feel?"

Pearl took a deep breath, the air wrapped in a lot of water vapor was very cool, His Excellency seemed... very nervous?

The hand that was holding her was suddenly tightened. This shouldn't be caused by her being too nervous, right?

Alice looked at Pearl without blinking: "If you don't feel well—"

"I'm fine." Pearl quickly interrupted her with a smile, "Don't worry."

Alice looked into Pearl's eyes seriously: "If there is anything, remember to tell me."

The Fifth Sister took a few steps forward and hugged Pearl: "Pearl is probably nervous because she is so quiet today—haha——"

The Duchess on the side originally lowered her eyes slightly, but her eyelashes trembled slightly after hearing her words, and asked, "Is this the first time Pearl has come to Atlantis?"

Pearl looked at her puzzled.

Alice: "I think it's not the first time you've seen me, so I'm definitely not the one who was nervous."

Fifth Sister: "But shouldn't you be excited when you come to Atlantis for the first time?"

Alice smiled: "Part of the construction of Blue Star's Atlantis is modeled after Yun Haixing's Atlantis."

Fifth Sister was full of question marks: "What does it matter..."

No one gave her an answer, the third sister looked at Alice thoughtfully, and Alice stared at Pearl's reaction... As for Pearl, she put her whole body and mind in the increasingly hot water...

Duke Alice What does this mean?The construction of Atlantis was the real beginning after Blue Star joined the empire. Before that, it could only be regarded as a small fishing village. It was unlikely that the mermaid could live there temporarily.

Atlantis of Yunhaixing was almost completely destroyed after the mermaid incident-it was only rebuilt in the past few decades.The construction blueprints that Duke Alice sent back were the construction drawings of Atlantis before Yunhaixing. Now Blue Star's Atlantis can be said to be not much different from the previous Atlantis of Yunhaixing.

Was the duke signaling to them to be careful?Or are you warning them?

The third sister was thinking uneasily, all kinds of thoughts were spinning rapidly in her mind.

Alice looked at Pearl for a while, then suddenly reached out and pressed Pearl's forehead: "You seem to be really hot."

Pearl's tail twitched, and it slapped the wall of the walker with a dull sound.

Pearl: "..."

The Duchess seemed to understand something, let out a barely audible chuckle, and did not let go of the hand she was holding, but clenched it even tighter.

Pearl... what can she do, she is also very desperate...

She really wanted to say something, but she didn't know what to say, obviously it wasn't like this before!

Thinking back to the eloquent self before, why are you so shy and embarrassed this time?

Pearl had a hard time understanding the sudden emotion.

In the beginning, Pearl didn’t talk to Alice because she thought that Alice didn’t remember herself, so she didn’t pay much attention to her, and kept talking to her two sisters—she thought that she would have a closer relationship with the Duke— After all, they talked so speculatively before.

She was also a little annoyed that she was not that familiar with Atlantis, and she was proficient in other general knowledge of the empire, but she was not that familiar with her hometown, maybe she had never been here before, and she always felt a little alienated, familiar and strange .

Her silence was indeed because she couldn't get in any words, so that when Alice extended her hand to invite her, she thought it was just a polite gesture and didn't want to answer - of course, there was also a bit of anger.

Later, the Duchess didn't take her hand back, she was waiting for her to put her hand on it... To be honest, Pearl was a little surprised, and that posture seemed to not take her hand back until she waited...

So Pearl became nervous... her body temperature began to rise, so hot that her palms were sweating.

The duke laughed when Pearl agreed, and his eyes were exactly as she imagined, completing the crescent moon.

The Duchess took her hand and walked through one street after another. The road ahead seemed endless. Their hands were always tightly held together, and they never seemed to let go...

The side face of the Duchess was calm, and she said, "Pearl, we are here."
