Mermaid [Interstellar]

"Pearl, are you alright?" the third sister urged.

"Come on." Pearl pulled out a piece of clothing and changed quickly, turned to look at the person in the mirror, and smiled.

The water was rippling, and the eyebrows and eyes of the person in the mirror were exquisite and picturesque. Pearl bent his eyes, and the sea blue eyes were as clear as glass balls with a coldness, and the long golden hair fluttered slightly, shining like the sun shining into the deep sea.

Pearl did not deny that he had a strange affinity and affection for Alice.

She wanted to help her with Philip.

"Third Sister, there is something I want to discuss with you." Pearl told Third Sister about her saving Philip.

The third sister said excitedly: "So, you saved the prince of the empire? That's great!" She clenched her fists, so that she could be sure that the male corpse was not Philip, and Blue Star would not be held accountable.

The third sister pressed Pearl's shoulder and said, "Pearl, let's go to His Royal Highness and bring him directly to Duke Alice."

She immediately made a decision: "Now Duke Alice has sent a search team to look for His Highness the Crown Prince. You don't want to delay and trouble Duke Alice, do you? Let's go find the Prince..."

"Okay." Pearl agreed, so that Alice will be able to deal with this matter soon.

……

Taking the third sister to the island where Philip is, Pearl and the third sister go ashore to look for Philip.

There was no one on the coast, and the fish grilling fire left by Philip was still emitting residual heat.

"Maybe it's in the woods." Pearl pointed to the woods full of birds. "He often goes there to dig out bird eggs for food."

"Drawing out... digging out bird eggs?!" The third sister really couldn't imagine that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Empire would do such a primitive activity in their Blue Star.

, Pearl shrugged: "After all, he also needs to eat."

Makes sense.

The third sister could not refute.

The two frightened the birds in the forest and flew up. The island is not big, so they almost turned the island over to search, but they still couldn't find anyone.

Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Pearl was in shock: "No way..."

The person just disappeared inexplicably without even saying hello?

The third sister panted lightly: "Pearl, are you sure he is really here? Did you remember the island wrong?"

Pearl pointed to the extinguished fire: "It's right here, where he was eating grilled fish before."

The third sister went over and twirled it, the charcoal fire was a little wet and had a fishy smell.

There were no footprints on the beach—sea water was the best trace destroyer, and even the footprints left by her and Pearl would be wiped away by the surging waves as soon as they turned around.

"Third Sister..." Pearl looked at Third Sister timidly, "Philip is gone..."

The third sister's face was very ugly: "Let's go to Duke Alice first, this matter... Let's talk to Duke Alice, and find someone as soon as possible."

Pearl looked at her without blinking.

Third sister: "Duke Alice's search team found a male corpse."

It should not be Philip, Pearl calculated the time and felt that it was not right.

"It's not him." The third sister glanced at Pearl, knowing what she was thinking, "But this corpse is also very important..."

Pearl lowered her head and apologized: "I'm sorry Third Sister, it would be great if I mentioned this earlier."

"It's okay," the third sister patted Pearl's head to comfort her, "You don't know how much this matter is involved."

"Actually..." Pearl murmured in a low voice.

"What?" Pearl's voice was too low for Third Sister to hear clearly.

"It's nothing... let's go find Duke Alice." Pearl forced a smile.

Actually not.

Looking at the back of the third sister who was rushing on the road, Pearl silently said in her heart, I'm sorry, third sister.

At the beginning, when Philip was in trouble, she didn't report it, because she had such a optimistic attitude.

Seeing Philip begging her for help miserably, she actually had a secret pleasure of revenge.

Even she felt that her feelings came out of nowhere. She had no grudges with Philip, and Philip was just a stranger to her.

Although they are strangers, if a stranger is in trouble and Pearl can help, she will still lend a helping hand.

That's why she helped Philip in the first place.

Later, after Philip said that she was the only prince of the empire, her attitude became a little subtle.

Pearl reflected on herself. On the one hand, she gloated over Philip's embarrassment, but on the other hand, she felt that Philip was innocent and was unwilling to embarrass him—shouldn't spread this inexplicable anger on him.

Pearl can't explain such feelings clearly, which is why Pearl's attitude towards Philip is sometimes hot and cold.

……

The Imperial Office in Blue Star.

The third sister and Pearl explained their purpose, and George quickly led them to Alice.

"You mean you saved Philip?!" Erwin yelled, "Then why didn't you say it before?!"

He walked in front of Pearl anxiously: "Little mermaid, you have to understand, we will not come to this place where birds don't lay eggs for no reason."

Erwin almost wanted to grab Pearl's collar.

Alice glanced at the excited Erwin, and distanced him from Pearl without any trace: "Pay attention to your image, and don't touch your hands."

"Image? Who cares about that now? There are no outsiders here!" Erwin sat down angrily, feeling that he really cared about this little mermaid for nothing, and actually brought them such frustrating news.

Cyril on the side pondered for a moment, and said, "Actually, this news is not useless, at least we can be sure that the corpse does not belong to my elder brother."

Erwin: "But what about people? There is no news yet!"

Alice: "At least I know that he is still alive, which is considered good news—it's almost ready." She lazily stood up and asked George to send a message to the emperor to let him know the "good news".

Erwin said again: "What if he is taken away by the 'Skeleton Group'?"

"..."

The room was silent.

Cyril almost wanted to slap Erwin to death, and if his crow's mouth came true at this time, it would be the end of the game for them.

Alice rolled her eyes and said angrily, "No one will treat you as dumb if you don't speak."

Erwin rubbed his nose: "Okay, I was wrong...but I'm also..." He insisted on finishing with Cyril's murderous eyes, "Worry! I'm just worried! We have to Don't prevent the 'Skull Squad' from coming!"

The "Skeleton Group" was not created by you.

Alice snorted softly.

"..." Erwin obviously thought of this, and he smiled awkwardly: "I already know I was wrong, Alice, can't you make 'Grey Pigeon' move faster?!"

"..." Alice didn't want to talk nonsense with this bastard anymore.

The third sister lowered her head, pretending she didn't hear anything.

Pearl's face was stiff, his eyes were wandering, and his heart was already in a turbulent state.

"Grey Pigeon" has a "reputation" outside, and it is the largest and most ruthless star thief gang in the Davis Star Field.Even she, who has been staying in the corner of Lan Xing, has heard of it.

As the governor and actual owner of the Davis star field, since Alice is still in contact with "Grey Dove", and may be the person in charge? !

It's strange that after Pearl knew the secret, he didn't dislike Alice at all, even though Alice's elegant appearance was hard to connect with the vicious star thief.

Many people are like this. If you accidentally know that what a person is doing inside is different from what she usually says and behaves, you will feel great resentment.

But Pearl didn't feel this way at all, and instead felt a little relieved.

...a feeling similar to "my family has a girl who has just grown up".

Pearl hesitated for a moment, and patted his face, thinking too much.That is the top nobleman of the empire, how could he need his sympathy?

She wanted to sneak a look at Alice, but when she looked up she found that she was also looking at herself.

"..." Pearl smiled silently at Alice, showing her white teeth.

Alice: "..." How silly.

She turned her head slightly, not looking at her anymore.

However, her shoulders were still trembling uncontrollably.

Pearl: "..." I suddenly felt so stupid, how can I restore my image now.

The movements of the two of them did not escape the eyes of Cyril who was on the side. He twitched the corners of his eyes slightly. In such a tense and serious atmosphere, the two of them were still flirting here.

Hi!Very angry!One of them was his ex-fiancée.

Thinking of this, Cyril became even more depressed.

"Knock-knock--" Cyril knocked on the table with his fingers, saw Alice sitting upright, and Pearl finally looked over, he nodded in satisfaction.

"Do you have anything else to do?" Alice asked.

Cyril: "..." Actually, it's okay, it's just that you don't like it - the resentment from a single dog, and I don't really want to eat this bowl of dog food.

He coughed a few times, his brain was running fast, and he brought up the topic: "Actually, I think we should look into the matter of the 'skeleton group'."

"My dislike for my elder brother is not so bad that I want him to die." Cyril said, "When I asked Elwin to find a candidate, I emphasized that his safety must be guaranteed."

Third Sister: "..." She seemed to have heard some terrible royal secret, maybe she shouldn't have come here in the first place.

Cyril didn't really care that the third sister and Pearl listened to the secret, or rather, he didn't take the two mermaids seriously.He went on to say: "But the 'Skull Squad' violated my request, perhaps it should be said that they did not intend to comply with the conditions I proposed at the beginning-if my eldest brother was really taken away by them, they should be regarded as killing people." Bar?"

Erwin nodded in agreement: "Perhaps their target was Philip at the beginning. We just provided them with information. If they can't catch Philip, they should retreat immediately, but it would be too strange if they came back after killing him..."

Cyril: "Also, there is another very strange thing, that is, they let Vincent go—you know, Alice didn't pay the money."

Alice suddenly said to George: "Let'Grey Dove', no, use all the information channels to check the background of the 'Skeleton Group', especially their boss. I want to know how they developed! "
