Mermaid [Interstellar]

blue star.

Deep Sea Crystal Palace.

Mermaid sisters gathered together.

The second sister looked at the elder sister coldly: "So that means, Pearl was sent by Duke Alice?"

The eldest sister nodded and admitted, she looked at the mermaid king, he hadn't appeared for a long time, and this meeting was also attended with great energy.

In order to make himself look more energetic, the mermaid king insisted on stretching his eyes wide, which made the whites of his eyes extraordinarily large. In line with his current sick appearance, it gave people a vicious feeling.

"Father, I want to know that elder sister does this, do you know?" Second sister asked.

"I know." The mermaid king said dryly, "I agree."

Hearing this, the second sister's face became a little ugly.

The eldest sister glanced at her contemptuously, and mocked: "How do you think Blue Star's autonomy comes from? It fell from the sky?"

The third sister lowered her head, thoughtful. It seems that in order to get Blue Star to accept Pearl, Duke Alice also did a lot of work.

Unable to please Pearl on this issue, the second sister turned to another topic, talking about the male corpse that Alice found when she came to Blue Star this time.

"That male corpse..." Second Sister narrowed her eyes slightly, "It must have appeared for no reason, Eldest Sister, you manage Blue Star, didn't you investigate such a thing?"

The mermaid king didn't know about this, and upon hearing this, he looked at his eldest sister in surprise: "What's going on?"

The elder sister shrugged her shoulders and said casually: "I'm still investigating—I don't know, I have been busy with the things that Duke Alice told me before,"

The third sister explained to the eldest sister: "His Royal Highness Philip, the prince of the empire, disappeared. During those days, people were looking for him. After confirming that the male corpse is not His Royal Highness Philip, we put it down temporarily."

The second sister raised her eyebrows: "I don't know who is committing crimes in the sea of ​​Blue Star, and can even hide it from us mermaids."

The mermaid king turned his gaze to the elder sister. She was basically managing Blue Star, and he was already half-empty. If there was something that the elder sister didn't know, it was basically impossible.

The eldest sister was very calm: "The night that Prince Philip disappeared, we didn't see any mermaids, which caused this matter to be delayed—the accident also happened at sea."

"That night was Pearl's birthday." Third Miss added in a low voice.

"Who is the murderer who killed the male corpse? Has he not been found yet?" Second Sister asked.

"I'm looking for it." The eldest sister said, "The analysis report has come out."

The mermaid king stretched out his hand to the eldest sister: "Bring it to me."

In name, Blue Star is still managed by the Mermaid King, and the eldest sister is only assisting in the management.The eldest sister will not refuse him in front of so many people because of the face of the mermaid king.

Avoiding the hand of the second sister, the eldest sister handed the report directly to the mermaid king.

The mermaid king flipped through the report: "The face is blurred and unrecognizable, although the body has rotted, there is no fatal injury on the surface, and the remaining crinoids were found in the stomach..." He turned to the final conclusion page, "The preliminary judgment is that the sea lily was born by mistake. Lily died."

"Eating by mistake?" The fourth sister laughed, with a sarcastic tone, "There are still people who pick crinoids in the sea these days and eat them raw."

Crinoids are not difficult to collect, but raw crinoids are poisonous, and those who know how to pick them will not understand this.

"Raw crinoids look the same as cooked ones. Every year, people die by eating them by mistake," the eldest sister knocked on the table. "Although it's not common, it's not uncommon. Even us mermaids do this."

The second sister pretended to be surprised and covered her mouth: "I picked crinoids and ate them. Could it be that he committed suicide?"

"Oh, I thought it was murder." Fourth Sister said,

"Who knows." The eldest sister said indifferently.

The mermaid king frowned, he was very annoyed that such a thing happened under his rule: "Didn't the family of the male corpse be found?"

"Still looking for it," said the elder sister.

"Then eldest sister must hurry up and find his family." The second sister raised her eyelids and looked straight at the eldest sister. "I think their family must be very anxious. I don't know if my son is dead or alive. They must be here." Crazy looking."

The fourth sister said worriedly: "Then if they find out that the person is gone—" She covered her mouth and couldn't speak any more.

true and false.

The third sister turned her eyes away, she was also worried, but she was worried about the elder sister.

——The man was killed by the eldest sister, and the male corpse has a great relationship with her.

In this meeting, Fifth Sister was a transparent person throughout the whole process, reducing her sense of existence. When she knew that Pearl belonged to Alice, she realized that it was not that simple.

The autonomy of their blue star was originally obtained in exchange for Pearl.

She suddenly remembered the time she spent with Pearl all these years.

...Actually, she really regards her as her younger sister, but this younger sister is too good.

She remembered the promise Philip had made of Pearl when he had told her to save him.

Fifth Sister felt a little regretful, maybe she shouldn't have exposed all of this, but it was already too late.

The second sister here is still talking: "If the eldest sister really can't find anyone, I can do it for you. You have been busy for so long and have worked hard for Blue Star for many years. It is time to take a break."

coming!

The pupils of the third sister shrank, and the second sister was already married, and she still coveted the position of Mermaid King. If she was really allowed to sit in this position, what would others think of Blue Star?

——The second cloud sea star?

The mermaid king betrayed his marriage in order to get the throne.

The third sister didn't dare to imagine such a scene, she hurriedly said, "Duke Alice made me responsible for this matter from the very beginning."

Blue Star is in the Davis star field, and Alice can be regarded as their boss.

The second sister seemed to have just noticed the third sister, and gave her a serious look: "Then how did you find out?"

The third sister wanted to help the eldest sister, but naturally she didn't care so much, she would have delayed if she could, otherwise she wouldn't have come up with an autopsy report until now.

There was silence.

"Third sister, you haven't found anything yet, have you just made up your mind whether the male corpse committed suicide or homicide?" The fourth sister raised her eyebrows. It's not that she didn't learn something after she got married, "If this is homicide, it can be regarded as an extremely bad act of throwing a corpse."

"The third child will definitely find out." The elder sister said solemnly, "If it is really a homicide, no matter who does such a thing, he will be punished by the law after all. I believe that the third child will definitely bring the murderer to justice." It's legal, isn't it?"

The third sister's body trembled almost imperceptibly. She didn't dare to look into the elder sister's eyes, and lowered her eyelashes in response: "Yes, if it is really a homicide," she repeated "homicide," and paused for a few seconds before continuing, "I will definitely commit suicide." The murderer caught it and took it to Duke Alice."

The meeting ended on a strange note.

After the meeting, the eldest sister stopped the fifth sister: "You can apologize to Pearl later, although she is indeed not our younger sister, but your reaction is really..." She frowned, and she really didn't want to speak out about her relatives. My sister was like an unreasonable shrew at that time.

"Pearl doesn't know about it. All of this is arranged by Duke Alice. If you have any questions, you can ask her." The eldest sister said, "She is a good sister, isn't she?"

Fifth Sister nodded in response.

The third sister followed her silently,

The eldest sister glanced at her, and said with a smile: "What are you doing downcast, don't you have other things to do?"

"Elder Sister—" Third Sister dragged her voice, she knew exactly what was going on, didn't this embarrass her, forcing her to make such a promise in front of everyone.

"Don't be afraid," the eldest sister touched the third sister's head, lowered her head and whispered in her ear, "If I'm not here, you are the most suitable person to sit in that position, and I will arrange it."

She held the cold hand of the third sister: "Duke Alice will also support you, the second child and the others can't beat you."

The third sister's eyes widened. Since the eldest sister still has a hole card, why didn't she use it for herself? Maybe Duke Alice has a way?

The eldest sister pursed her lips and smiled, and stopped talking. She pinned the third sister's bangs that covered her eyes behind her ears: "You always do a good job. You are the most reassuring sister. Only you choose to stay in Blue Star. See you It’s beyond my expectation that the prosperity outside can continue to come back.”

"Sister," the third sister's voice choked up, "Do you know? Many years ago, you took me to participate in the negotiations between Blue Star and the Empire, and saw the things that the Empire came to use. At that time, Blue Star and them Just like living in a different dimension, the purpose of my study has always been to come back and make our Blue Star the same as other higher planets."

"You've done a good job. I've always been worried that we would become the same as Yun Haixing, so I haven't made much change to my father's policy of resisting the empire. I don't know what the higher planets are like. I'm afraid I After experiencing it, we will become the same as the second and fourth children, I am afraid that our Blue Star will be the next Yun Haixing."

Looking at the surprised eyes of the third sister, the eldest sister rubbed her head: "Why, is it unexpected? I am much more cowardly than you imagined - I am afraid that my father will suddenly turn against me and make me end up like my mother In such a situation, we can no longer stay in Blue Star."

After her mother and father divorced, she couldn't stay on Blue Star, so she chose to leave, and stayed on that desolate planet for the rest of her life.

The third sister sniffed: "No, you are the best, it must be that person is not good, it is because he did something wrong that you—"

"It's true that he did something wrong," the elder sister interrupted her, "but I was too aggressive, anyway, I have to pay the price."

Her eyes turned to the outside of the Crystal Palace, outside is the clear and glowing sea water illuminated by the light from the Crystal Palace, groups of fish swimming around, scallops lazily opening and closing, jellyfish stretching out their tentacles to fluctuate with the current... no matter how far away Some are large coral reefs, covered with large crinoids, which sometimes float to various places with the water falling.
