Mermaid [Interstellar]

Erwin swallowed, and secretly raised his eyes to look at Alice and Cyril for a long time, the atmosphere of the whole room has condensed, and the warm atmosphere of meeting friends before was swept away.

Erwin hesitated for a while, but still said: "Alice... Should we be honest with each other?"

"I don't think there's anything to say, you know—I really don't like this topic about Yunhaixing." Alice said lightly.

Cyril tapped her fingers on the table again and again, noncommittal.

Although he was anxious inside, he still had to keep calm on the face. Erwin didn't dare to say much, and stared at the two of them—although they were allies, he was not the leader.

Obviously, Alice wanted them to confess first.

Cyril pursed her lips, propped her head on one hand, closed her eyes half-closed, and pondered for a long time: "My original intention was to stir things up...to test it out."

Test what?

The other three pairs of eyes looked at him.

"Try it out, my father's attitude—in many ways," he looked at Alice, "for example, his attitude toward you—I thought he would avoid you and not let you know."

"Also, the attitude towards my eldest brother—obviously, he is not as important as money, or rather, as important as power—after all, the central government has no money, so he can't force the Ministry of Finance to take money out under the eyes of everyone killing people. .”

"Facts have proved that you have played off." Alice went straight to the point without showing any favor to Cyril, "The 'Skull Squad' is out of your control, and they started blackmailing themselves, so they lost everything——Erwin .”

Erwin: "..." He sighed secretly, he didn't want to either.

Cyril: "In short, we provided information and weapons and equipment, and the 'Skull Squad' arrested people..." He paused, and let out a few words from between his teeth, "I turned my back on you."

"The 'Skull Squad' can't stay anymore, I will notify the 'Grey Pigeon' and let them solve it." Alice squinted at the two of them, deeply feeling that the two collaborators did more than fail.

"I hope that you will notify me in advance when you do things in the future, especially you, Cyril." Alice said, "If something happens to you, we will probably fall short, and all the years of preparation will be in vain. "

Walking in front of Cyril, Alice held out her hand: "Finally, I hope we can cooperate happily."

"Happy cooperation." Cyril shook back.Alice's attitude can be regarded as a clear explanation. She is in control of "Grey Pigeon", and she will also help them clean up this mess.

"The top priority is to find Philip. He should still be alive or dead on Blue Star. If it takes too long, I'm worried that the emperor will take action against Yun Haixing—although financial funds are not much, military expenses are always there. Alice glanced at Erwin, "It's better not to embarrass each other."

"Yes, yes, yes." Erwin nodded again and again, if the emperor sent his father over again, it would be difficult for him.

"You have no clue so far?" Cyril asked Alice.

Alice rubbed her brows. She hadn't seen the prince, but she was worried about him: "No, the mermaid also said that she hadn't seen him."

"It's been so many days, shouldn't it be..." Erwin suddenly couldn't continue, he coughed a few times, "I remember that Philip's physical fitness is still good, survival in the wilderness should be possible, and Blue Star doesn't seem to have any large wild animals..."

The more he said, the more he said, the more he talked, the quieter he became, the more he couldn't continue. It didn't matter whether there were large wild animals in Blue Star. The biggest danger for Blue Star was the treacherous and unpredictable ocean. If not, the seawater of Blue Star is highly corrosive!

Standing aside, George suddenly raised his hand and looked at his terminal. After a while, he walked into Alice with a tense expression and whispered in her whisper.

"Let them bring the body back immediately!" Alice stood up immediately, "Find someone reliable to come over for an autopsy!"

Erwin: "What... what's wrong?"

Alice's voice seemed to be frosty: "The search team found a floating male corpse on the sea surface, and it was rotten beyond recognition."

Erwin opened his mouth in shock: "No... no... I'm just talking..."

Cyril asked, "Are you roughly sure?"

George replied: "Judging from the photos sent from the scene...it really looks like..."

"After the autopsy." Alice raised her hand, "Block the news."

……

Meanwhile, Crystal Palace.

"Eldest sister, should we restrain Pearl," said the third sister, "Duke Alice is here to track down the whereabouts of His Royal Highness Prince Philip of the Empire. Will it cause trouble if Pearl runs around like this and doesn't see anyone all day long?" Her attention?"

The eldest sister stopped and looked up at her, and the third sister pulled her bangs together: "I know she is running around because of novelty, but I have to wait for Duke Alice to leave. Besides, the night His Royal Highness disappeared, I'm afraid it will be A mermaid Pearl has surfaced, and now there are search parties all over the sea, if Duke Alice feels that she is obstructing official duties, we will always suffer."

"It makes sense." The eldest sister said lightly, "But you don't have to worry so much, Duke Alice won't doubt Pearl easily."

Seeing that the third sister seemed to have something to say, the eldest sister said: "If it is not necessary recently, it is better not to let Pearl leave the Crystal Palace. It is really not good to run around all the time."

The third sister should come down, and with the order of the eldest sister, she can better restrain the people below.The mermaid king seldom manages things now, he is getting old, and there are only six daughters under him. The elder sister has helped the mermaid king deal with affairs for a long time, and has accumulated power for many years, especially after Lan Xing joined the empire, she has done more. He didn't even leave Blue Star to study on a higher planet.Everyone felt that she would eventually be crowned.

Sister: "Are there many search teams on the sea?"

"Oh, that's right, I went to see it, and it was quite careful. I went to many inaccessible places." The third sister came back to her senses, "At this speed, there should be results soon."

The eldest sister lowered her eyes, a little indifferently: "Many places? Including the Dead Sea?"

The Dead Sea is the most corrosive sea in the Blue Star Sea, and there are almost no living creatures there, and even mermaids rarely go there.

"Probably not. In this place, they can only look around at the most. How do those ships go into the water? Don't think about it once you go down."

"That's the prince of the empire." The eldest sister said coldly, "Don't take it for granted that it should be like this."

The third sister was startled, then nodded again and again, because she was narrow-minded, thinking that the crown prince of the empire was the same as them.That is His Majesty's own son, no matter how much manpower and material resources are wasted to search for it, it is worth it.

"Anyway, pay attention to them... The Dead Sea is still very dangerous." The eldest sister paused, "I will tell Duke Alice, where there is danger... we can help."

"Okay." The third sister agreed, and the eldest sister talked today...why did you stumble?

She suppressed the confusion in her heart, and then listened to the elder sister asking about the situation of the fifth younger sister.

"She... is not bad. She has been studying hard recently, and she said that she must go to a higher planet." This time it was her turn to stumble.

The eldest sister snorted coldly: "Forget it, let her get rid of this idea and study with Dr. Zhu Li."

"Why? Fifth Sister, she has no interest in medicine."

"I heard that she made a lot of jokes in the office." The eldest sister glanced at the third sister, and seeing that she couldn't help lowering her head, she said angrily, "Since the second and fourth children got married, what father did to them Your attitude has always been bad, and you should know why!"

"Yun Haixing is a lesson for us! Why did the two of them come back just once, and they lost Fifth Sister's soul or something? They always think about going to a developed and advanced place to enjoy happiness! Tell me, where is she? Who are you trying to hook up with? Duke Alice?!" At the end, the eldest sister could no longer suppress her anger, and with a wave of her hand, various books and documents on the table fell to the ground.

"Who is Duke Alice? That's all she can think about? She doesn't know how she died later! The second child was so high-minded back then, and he married only a small nobleman. If you can’t get in line, the other party will have to nod and bow carefully if they want to see Duke Alice.”

The eldest sister looked at the third sister: "You pamper her, do you also have this idea? I hate that I have tied you up all these years, stopped the good marriage that the second brother introduced to you, and let the fourth brother snatch it away?"

"No, no," the third sister was a little dumbfounded, and she said seriously, "I never thought about marrying to an alien planet. I went to an alien planet to study in order to come back and build a better blue star."

She looked into the elder sister's eyes and said word by word: "Eldest sister, I am very grateful to you for taking me to the signing ceremony for Blue Star to join the empire that year. As for the content, I just thought, whenever our Blue Star people can do the same."

The elder sister's mood gradually calmed down: "Then, all these years, you have been talking about Blue Star's affairs with the second brother and the others. They have all left. Do you still care about life and death here?"

"Eldest sister, you are wrong. Second sister is really caring. She even invited me to their place many times, saying that it is to learn advanced experience." Third sister said slowly, she pursed her lips and laughed , "Don't think of them so heartlessly, the second sister often told me that no matter what, they were born here, so why don't you forget?"

"Forget? You can't forget the position of the Mermaid King, right? The wealth over there is not as good as imagined. It's better to be a self-governing lord. The empire will allocate funds every year. Do you want anything?!"
