Mermaid Effect

Rand was taken aback.

He felt as if he jumped up like a frightened cat, but in fact he just gasped and took a step back, his heart pounding like a piston in his chest. Generally, it almost hit his breastbone and started to hurt.

That eyeball really didn't look like what a fish should have. The pupil and iris were so similar to humans, and the bright blood red even made Rand unconsciously think of Vincent.

Rand stood there for a while, as if someone had cast a petrification spell on him, his mind was blank, and despite being frightened, he still couldn't take his eyes off the "cocoon" in the aquarium.

The eye rolled around, as if looking at Rand through the slit.

The sensation is almost scalp tingling.

It took Rand a long time to recover, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and slowly moved closer to the aquarium.

Oh, that's just the pattern on Munster, did you forget?You have been intimidated by it.

Rand desperately convinced himself in his heart, he carefully observed the gap, trying to figure out what it was.

There was a faint fishy smell in the air, a bit like the smell of a lake with slow water flow and lush aquatic life on a sultry summer afternoon... Rand sniffed, as if in a trance Plenty of wet swamp, not in his well-furnished mid-range apartment.

In his short blink of an eye, the crack got bigger.

The blood-red eyeballs were gone, and through the swelled almost transparent membrane, Rand could clearly see some scales moving, and he was inexplicably relieved, it seemed that Munster was moving inside the "cocoon" .

He couldn't help but put his face into the aquarium, with the tip of his nose against the cold aquarium wall.

Through the crack, he could vaguely see that Munster seemed to be writhing and struggling inside. In the process, the crack became bigger and bigger, and finally another piece of black debris fell off.A claw pierced the membrane, stretched out along the gushing mucus, and hooked on the edge of the gap.

After staying for a short period of time, the other paw stretched out with great effort.

It looks a bit like the claws of a frog, but the light blue flippers between the five toes are densely covered with fine radial transparent fins, and there are small and sharp hooks at the toes—very small, but The flashing blue light on the tip of the hook made Rand feel inexplicably that it would be unusually sharp.

Rand's eyes widened involuntarily. He looked at the two paws, barely knowing how to react.

Oh, is it really possible for a fish to grow claws like this?

Even Rand, who had no interest in creatures, felt something was wrong with this thing.

But the truth didn't give him much time to dwell on this, because in the next few seconds, a pointed snout protruded from between the two paws.

Compared with before, Munster's head is now rounder, and the color has become bright blue... In addition, two soft tentacles like snail tentacles stand on the ground like rabbit ears. on its head.

Its eyes are inlaid on both sides like beans, and the circular spots that were always behind the eyes before have turned red, and the small piece of red will have different patterns under the change of light—so Rand Was taken aback before.But when the stripe appeared in front of Rand's eyes, even he had to admit that it didn't look scary, and to be honest, it was actually cute.

Because of the location, the two spots now look more like the cartoon blush of this strange fish.

Rand stared blankly at the completely transformed Munster... Well, he wasn't even sure that this thing was really the one he had raised before.

It has changed a lot.

Munster raised his head and looked at Rand motionlessly. After a few seconds, its two weird short and fat tentacles shook slightly, and then it began to squeeze desperately from the inside of the cocoon.

I have to say that scene was kind of funny.

Like the head, Munster's body has also undergone tremendous changes. Its body has become more rounded and thicker, and the scales are very densely covered on the surface of the body. If you don't look carefully, you may even accidentally see it as a A large worm with a smooth surface... a sea snake... an eel... or something.

Rand desperately searched his barren mind for an animal that could be compared to it, but he finally gave up, because he didn't know what it was now anyway.

Munster scratched the bottom of the aquarium bit by bit with his claws, and with great difficulty got his fat body out of the disgusting cocoon.

It has grown a lot.The small thing that could be transported to Kansas in a sports bottle before is now as long as half an arm. It can be said that it is just a good aquarium, but it looks "huge" when it grows up. It turned out to be a little cramped.The pectoral fins protruded two things between the fins and the claws, and the color became more vivid. The blue color was even dazzling as if it was shining by itself.

Rand looked at Munster's current appearance in amazement, and then looked at the "cocoon". He couldn't believe that it could squeeze itself into such a small space before.

No... no, it might not be Munster either.

Rand made a smart move, then shook his head.

He clearly remembered that he was just raising an ordinary fish that couldn't be named, but what is this thing that crawled out now?

The eccentric creature circled around the small aquarium with difficulty and seemed to want to swim, but finally bumped into the glass wall of the aquarium.

Rand's mouth twitched.

Oh, and Munster also loves to spin around in the water, and he never stopped when he was in the salad bowl.

However, the current condition of this fish is obviously not suitable for swimming.

Rand stared at it incredulously—it wasn't even floating in the water!

"Haw... chirp..."

A small, tiny cry like a newborn chicken sounded at this time.

Rand thought he might be hallucinating.

Then he discovered that the sound was coming from the aquarium.

"..."

He looked silently at the source of the sound.

The weird thing was sticking its head against the side of the aquarium and chirping at him.

God the fuck...

Rand rubbed the bridge of his nose and let out a moan. He felt a muscle in his temple spasm.

Who will tell him what kind of situation this is.

Before this, no one told him how to treat a squawking fish!

Where did that familiar fish go? !
