Age Of The Sirens

Completely different from the dark and empty streets outside, the world behind the door is crowded and psychedelic.As soon as you enter the door, there is a section of corridor. The scarlet lights above your head blur everyone's faces. People who are kissing, hugging, or even taking drugs in twos and threes have to stumble along this journey.Two bodyguards with fierce faces stood in front of a black velvet curtain, staring at him suspiciously, but they didn't stop him after all.

Going through the heavy curtain, Tang Yi was momentarily dazzled by the rapidly changing flashes and couldn't keep his eyes open.The first thing I saw was a group of black and crowded figures dancing in the middle of the dance floor. There were many nearly naked beauties dancing hotly in many suspended iron cages in midair. On the front stage, there were a few people dressed in black gothic costumes. The flirtatious young man was frantically playing rock instruments, and a charming young man with purple hair in the middle was roaring at the top of his lungs, his singing sounded like death and madness.

"Werethenobodies, Wannabesebodies, Weredead, Weknojusthoeare" (note, the lyrics are from Marilyn Manson's Nobodies)

Tang Yi was surprised, never thought that there are rock bands in today's world who would dare to perform in public like this.Most of the nightclubs he has been to before are DJs using the computer-generated music that the Ministry of Security allows to release. After all, the base prohibits people from creating their own music, nor does it allow public live performances, so most of the bands are unable to survive. And disbanded.

Tang Yi was glad that he was wearing earplugs, otherwise his sensitive ears might be damaged in such a hurricane of violent human voices and electronic sounds.

The crowd rubbed against each other, the fiery atmosphere and desire rose in the resulting lights, and sweat fell like rain.Tang Yi squeezed through the crowd, searching everywhere for traces of mercury.He even felt his butt being touched a few times, but it's a pity that it's not the time to fight, so he has to squeeze out of the crowd and lean against the bar.On his left is a pair of men kissing fiercely, their hands have already reached into each other's pants...

Tang Yi quickly looked away, but saw some small rooms covered with red velvet around the hall, and he could faintly see wriggling figures inside.The decadent air diffuses between every molecule of the air, and it really looks like a rotten hell.

Tang Yi frowned, anger rising faintly in his heart, what did Mercury come to such a place!

Even though he was the one who took Mercury to a nightclub at the beginning, the siren was still so innocent at the time, why did he turn around and run out to play without him? !

He fixed his eyes and saw Quicksilver on the other side of the dance floor opening an empty box behind another man, and the curtain fell behind him, covering his sight.

He would never admit the blue hair of the man in front of Quicksilver...

Is it Han Qi? !

Tang Yi only felt that his blood was on fire as if gasoline had been doused suddenly, and his anger shot straight to the sky.He should have known that that stinking hooligan would not give up so easily. Could it be that Mercury has not returned to the dormitory all night and all night recently, and is not in the Siren Hall at all, but with him? !

A sour and painful strong emotion wrapped in raging anger, suddenly swept Tang Yi's thoughts.The strong feeling of being betrayed almost swallowed him.

He pushed aside the crowd in front of him, walked straight across the dance floor, and threw back the curtain.

Quicksilver raised his head, holding a small reagent bottle in his hand, as if he just drank something.Han Qi, on the other hand, leaned comfortably on the sofa, and turned around suddenly when he heard the noise, his eyes widened.

Without saying a word, Tang Yi grabbed Han Qi by the collar and lifted him up from the sofa, and swung him to that fair face in a circle.Han Qi screamed and fell on the sofa with blood all over his nose and mouth.Tang Yi wanted to make a few more punches, but his wrist was suddenly grabbed by a force.

Tang Yi turned around and saw Shuiyin staring at him with surprise and displeasure, "What are you doing!"

Tang Yi couldn't believe that he still had the face to ask him what he was doing, he pulled his wrist violently, his eyes were stern, almost burning, "What the hell are you doing! Who allowed you to leave the team?! You and What the hell is going on with him!"

Quicksilver held him helplessly, grabbed the back of his neck, and forced him to look into his eyes, "Things are not what you imagined! Calm down!"

Han Qi lay paralyzed on the side, wiping the blood gushing out of his nose pitifully, and wailed, "You're sick! You hit people when you come up! You even hit people in the face! Didn't you agree to hit people in the face? Didn't you?" Quality!"

Tang Yi turned his head and stared at him viciously. The angry look combined with the strange eyes of different colors and a blood-tear-like scar looked so hideous that Han Qi immediately froze when he saw it, and quickly hugged his head, "Hey, hey, don't Hit don't hit! I really didn't do anything to your siren!"

Tang Yi violently broke away from Quicksilver, and wanted to punch that daring little rascal again, but was hooked by Quicksilver and forced him out of the box.Tang Yi struggled in Mercury's arms, but was suddenly pressed against the wall, and he was knocked out of his chest in one breath. He was stunned for a moment, and felt his lips were captured by a domineering force.

Tang Yi's eyes widened.In the blurred vision, Quicksilver's tongue pried open his jaw, penetrated into his mouth, forcefully plundering his breath.Tang Yi's heart almost jumped out of his throat, he even forgot to breathe, his cheeks were flushed.Just when he thought he was going to be eaten by quicksilver, the siren finally let go of his ravaged red lips, his eyelashes drooped, and his blank face was reflected in his blue eyes.

"You..." Tang Yi was so angry that he wiped his mouth vigorously, but his cheeks were flushed like rouge, "You think you can prevaricate it like this?!"

"Let's go out, and I'll explain it to you." Quicksilver didn't allow him to refuse at all, grabbed his wrist, and half dragged him out of HellGate.Tang Yi stumbled along behind Shuiyin, but he would struggle symbolically to vent his anger from time to time.Quicksilver dragged him directly into a small hotel, grabbed some cash from Tang Yi's trouser pocket, and slapped it on the counter regardless of Tang Yi's protest.The old man at the front desk glanced at them, and handed an ancient key to Quicksilver as if he understood.Quicksilver dragged Tang Yi up to the third floor, opened the door, pushed Tang Yi in, and locked the door.

Quicksilver turned around slowly, and saw Tang Yi on the other side of the room, staring at him angrily, his eyes wide open like a frightened little animal.

The heart seemed to melt suddenly, and a strange yet familiar trembling feeling spread along the blood vessels, both sweet and astringent.

Mercury looked at the time displayed on the wall, it was 11:55pm, it seems... the medicine started to take effect...

Mercury approached Tang Yi slowly, but the latter still stared at him not to be outdone, and put on a posture ready to fight at any time, but took half a step back slightly.

"Say what you want to say!"

Mercury's expression was a little different from usual.Tang Yi's face became inexplicably hot when he saw the swaying focus and deepness in those silver-blue eyes, and the raging fire buried under the ice, and his heart suddenly became tense.Every time Shuiyin looked at him like this, he took him as Tang Ya.

"Hey...what did you drink just now...you don't know how to take drugs..."

Standing in front of him, Mercury was a few inches taller than him, which gave Tang Yi a strong sense of oppression.Quicksilver caressed his side face lightly, put his palms around the scar, and rubbed his thumbs vaguely on his lips that had been bitten before.Tang Yi's body stiffened, he grabbed Shuiyin's wrist, and a sad light flashed in his eyes.

"You promised that you would never think of me as Tang Ya again!" Tang Yi tightly gripped that cold wrist, his eyes were suspiciously moist.He felt so wronged, and he should get used to it by tomorrow, but he still couldn't keep calm.

However, Mercury smiled softly, "I didn't treat you as someone else, you are Tang Yi."

"Then what are you doing! Why did you kiss me before! Is it fun to play me!"

"Because I want to kiss you."

"..."

"Don't you want to know why I met Han Qi?"

When carrying out the mission under the sea before, Han Qi once secretly approached Tang Yi while Tang Yi was away, and asked him if he was interested in "freedom".It turns out that this seemingly idle marine biologist is actually a rare genius. He has been fascinated by the "binding" system of the sea monster since he was a child. He does not believe that there is irreversible love in this world.His father is the second wise man of the sword, and the family has enough power and wealth to support him in any crazy experiments and explorations.So he spent nine years developing a drug that increases the uptake of certain neurotransmitters in the brain and temporarily reverses the binding process.

The problem is that such research will fundamentally threaten the base's control over the Kraken, so no matter how powerful his family is, this research will never be supported by any base, and even once his daring experiment is discovered , not only his loyalty value will take a sharp turn, but even his father will be implicated.

It is impossible for him to get any healthy sea monsters from the base for live experiments.

But after meeting Tang Yi and Shuiyin, a bold idea came to his mind.He found out from his father that Tang Yi is not the real binder of Quicksilver, so if his potion takes effect, Quicksilver can be freed from the previous binding.Not only quicksilver, but any bound siren who has lost its master can rely on this potion to be freed from endless loneliness and depression.

So he decided to start with mercury.

At that time, Mercury didn't intend to break the bond with Tang Ya.Even if Tang Ya died, he was still willing to keep that painful bond.He was afraid that once the binding was undone, he would forget to investigate the cause of Tang Ya's death, and forget to avenge Tang Ya.What's more, I don't know what kind of side effects such medicines will have.

But... now everything is different...

"I had contacted Han Qi privately before and gave him my blood sample. Just last week, he told me that he had made an anti-binding reagent based on my blood sample. This reagent is still in the experimental stage, and its efficacy is only It can last for about 24 hours. During these 24 hours, I have never been bound."

Tang Yi opened his mouth slightly, and looked at him in a daze, "Are you kidding me?"

"...why am I teasing you. You know I don't have much of a sense of humor."

Tang Yi suddenly remembered that the little rascal in Haixia had indeed mentioned the anti-binding matter to him, but he thought it was the other party's bragging, but he didn't expect it to look like bragging.Tang Yi never imagined that Han Qi's foolish young master actually had two brushes...

"...but if you put it this way...doesn't Han Qi know that you have recognized my true identity a long time ago? No way...what if he reveals the secret...do you want to silence him..." he said Before he finished speaking, he was sealed again by Quicksilver with a kiss.

After a while, Mercury raised his head, smiling like a dream, "This is your birthday present, happy birthday."
