Devil's Department Store

Such a day is really wonderful, their thoughts are so compatible, and their souls resonate, and Ella feels extremely happy. She and Caroline are so close, which is a distance that she never expected.

The mermaid princess finally didn't look as thin as before. Love nourished her, made her cheeks rosy, her eyes bright, and her whole body became lively and bright.

Today, she also went to Caroline's house to have a date with her as usual. She learned from the hidden succubus and made an unsightly but very delicious sea salt cake, which she planned to share with Caroline. Lynn to share.

They could watch a movie while eating cake, and Caroline would tell her little things about the ocean that she didn't know, Ella thought sweetly.

But things didn't go right. After opening the door, the little mermaid looked at the man in the living room with a dazed look on her face.

Caroline on the sofa seemed a little embarrassed. She greeted Ella to sit beside her and said, "Sorry Ella, I forgot to tell you about this. I have a guest coming today."

The man's attention was not on Ella, he smiled at Caroline and said, "Oh? Am I also a guest?"

Caroline couldn't help laughing: "You really aren't a guest, Varen."

Varun was Caroline's college classmate, and they seemed to have a good relationship, there were a thousand things to talk about that Ella didn't know, and Caroline had a good laugh, maybe a lot more than she had with her.

It's okay, everyone has their own past, just like Caroline didn't know that Ella was a mermaid until now, Ella should have thought so, until she saw Caroline looking at Varen's eyes.

Ella felt the fear.

Because that was the way Caroline would never look at her, the way a woman looks at a man.

The little mermaid's soul seemed to be pulled out of her body in an instant. She realized what she had been ignoring all along. Her face turned pale, and she began to tremble violently. She felt as if she had left the water for the first time, thirsty, Suffocated, it seems that he will die in the next second.

Although most of her attention was on chatting with her old classmates, Caroline still noticed something wrong with Ella immediately, hugged her in panic, and said, "Ella? Ella? What's wrong with you? !"

Ella buried herself in her arms and shook her head vigorously.

"Are you sick Ella? Shall I take you to the hospital?" Caroline said.

The little mermaid sobbed in despair, what should she say?She wasn't sick, she was just caught in an impossible love that took her to heaven and hell, coated her heart in honey and twisted it to pieces.

And she had no choice but to accept all the emotions Caroline gave her and taste them alone.

"I'm fine," Ella said weakly, "I'm fine, Caroline, don't worry about me."

"What nonsense are you talking about, look at your face!" Caroline hugged her a little tighter, and said to Varen: "Sorry, let's talk here for today, I have to take Ella to the hospital .”

Varen frowned, looked at them worriedly, and said, "Do you need my help?"

Caroline hesitated for a moment, then shook her head and refused. She was worried that Valen would remind Ella of Hope: "Thank you, but no need, Ella is afraid of strangers, I can do it alone."

Varun seemed to realize something, stood up, and said, "Okay, then I'll leave first, if you need me in anything, just call me."

Caroline nodded.

Varen quickly left, and Caroline tried several times, but couldn't hug the thin-looking Ella - after all, this is a hundred-year-old mermaid, and the shape-changing potion can only change her body structure. It doesn't make the muscles and bones in her huge tail disappear, they just compress, and if Ella does go to the hospital, just take a picture, and nothing can be hidden.

Ella also understands this, she is really suffering, but she can't let Caroline take her to the hospital, so she can only whisper: "Misser..."

Caroline came to her senses and quickly called Miser, and the succubus rushed over as quickly as possible after receiving the news.

"What happened to Ella?" Miser asked strangely, wasn't she fine when she went out?And she's a mermaid, what else can hurt her?

"I don't know, maybe there is something wrong with my heart." Caroline said anxiously.

Miser had no choice but to go forward, picked up Ella and walked out, Caroline hurriedly followed, her knee accidentally bumped against the coffee table, the little mermaid watched her sea salt cake fall to the ground, Caroline stepped on her foot indifferently.

The cake was broken into a puddle, and the cream was spread all over the floor.

The little mermaid hid in the arms of the succubus with tears in her eyes.

In the end, Miser found an excuse, got rid of Caroline, and brought Ella back to the store.

Fortunately, there was no major problem. The mermaid's mood fluctuated too much, which caused the side effect of the transformation potion, and the potion expired prematurely.

Miser breathed a sigh of relief, and then angrily prepared to trouble the witch, but before that, Ella stopped him.

"Do me one more favor, Miser," said the little mermaid, looking at him sadly, "tell Caroline that I want to meet her by the sea."

Miser understood what she wanted to do, sighed helplessly, and said, "I've already told you, Ella, this matter will not come to fruition, so why should you?"

Ella looked at Miser stubbornly, without any intention of changing her mind.

Miser thought for a while, approached her, and discussed with her: "How about this? We sell love in our store. You know what it is, right? It can keep Caroline by your side forever, and you can also It won't be as painful as it is now."

The little princess was shaken, she really hoped that Caroline could love her, but in the end, she shook her head and said seriously: "But it's just a scam, isn't it?"

Miser couldn't help it, the little mermaid was much more sober than the witch, so he could only obediently dial Caroline's cell phone and tell her that Ella was fine.

"That's good." Caroline breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Also," Miser said, "are you free tomorrow afternoon? Ella said she wanted to meet you at the beach."

"Tomorrow afternoon?" Caroline hesitated, she had made an appointment with Varen to go out for dinner tomorrow afternoon, but in the end, she said: "Okay, I will go, but I hope you don't let Ai Take someone out, at least send her to the beach."

Miser gave a dry laugh and said, "Of course, then five o'clock in the afternoon, okay?"

Caroline agreed.

Miser glanced at Ella again, and said helplessly, "You know what you're doing, right?"

Ella froze for a moment, then nodded.

Caroline was a bit busy with work, and she just squeezed out a little time at 04:30. She still remembered the agreement she made with Ella, and rushed to the beach as fast as she could.

Today's waves are a bit big, and the sea has already begun to rise, almost submerging the reef where they used to sit. Caroline was startled when she saw Ella standing less than two meters away from the sea, and ran over quickly, shouting : "Ella! What are you doing! Don't stand there! Come back!"

Ella turned around and looked at Caroline. She was barefoot and her skirt was already wet, but instead of following Caroline's words and going back, she went further into the sea.

"Ella!" Caroline screamed, but the girl jumped into the sea without looking back.

Caroline didn't care about thinking about anything at the moment, she took off her high heels, ran and jumped into the sea to save people.

She is good at swimming, but she was still too reluctant to face such a big wave, and soon choked on the water. When she was struggling, she wrapped her waist tightly with both hands, and when Caroline came back to her senses , I was already lying on the beach, next to Ella who was staring at her—maybe it was Ella.

The girl's human ears are gone, and what grows there is a pair of translucent fins glowing with silver light. Her hair has become lighter in color, and her pupils have colored reflections that are different from those of humans. Her skin looks flawless. Like a pearl, the whole person is like a sculpture in an art exhibition.

Caroline looked at her incredulously, and said softly, "Ella?"

The mermaid leaned into her arms and replied softly, "It's me, Caroline."

"You...you are a mermaid?! Do mermaids really exist in this world?!" Caroline was extremely surprised: "Wait, you are not used to walking because of this? So what are Miser and the others? Are they mermaids too? ? There are many mermaids in the human world?"

Caroline went one after another, and Ella was overwhelmed, but she still tried to answer all the questions she could answer: "Yes, they exist, yes, Miser and the others are not mermaids, and there are not many in the human world." A mermaid..."

"No wonder you know the sea so well, and sometimes you speak in a strange tone. God, you have read so many stories and magazines written by humans," Caroline said dumbfoundedly: "Do you think we are ridiculous?"

Ella shook her head quickly: "No! I like those stories very much, and Caroline's research is not ridiculous at all. Although I live in the sea, I don't know as much about the sea as Caroline!"

Caroline finally calmed down from the impact of the three views, and said with a smile: "God knows how many questions I want to ask you, but I don't think now is the time... Ella, you are so beautiful."

Caroline looked at Ella's face and her fishtail fascinatedly, and sighed from the bottom of her heart: "You are real elves in the sea! God, how lucky I am to have met you, even Seeing you in your original form, thank you for your trust!"

Ella looked at the brilliance in Caroline's eyes that had never appeared before, and the dead heart beat again.

The coast without water made her skin dry and painful, but the little mermaid didn't care at all. She looked at Caroline wholeheartedly and asked eagerly, "I'm beautiful, is it true?"

Caroline nodded without hesitation: "Of course! My God, you are simply the most beautiful creature I have ever seen!"

"Do you like me?" Ella's voice was crying: "Do you like me?"

"I like it," Caroline said with a smile, "Actually, even if I'm just Ella, I like you too. You're a good girl!"

"So, what about love?" asked the mermaid.

Caroline froze.

After a while, she asked softly, "What?"

"Love," said Ella, tears streaming from her eyes, looking at Caroline and asking plaintively, "Do you love me, Caroline? Like the love you once had for Hope, and will soon be for Watts." Lun's kind of love... do you love me?"
