Raise me, I'm super sweet

==============================

Du Heng touched Cang Luan's sleeve instead, and he was shocked by the touch of his hand.

He looked at Qi Fanchen, got the answer he wanted in the eyes of the other party, and asked Xuan Ying: "Who is that Director Zhao you are talking about? Where did he get it from?"

"Director Zhao Feng, he is the one who filmed "Ten Years of Yu Qing." After the young boy explained, he suddenly seemed to notice something, and asked, "You don't know us, do you?"

"..." Du Heng didn't want to say that at first, but Qi Fanchen beside him nodded and asked, "Who are you?"

Boy: "..."

"My name is Lu Changyan." The young boy pointed to another boy and said, "His name is Chen Si, she..."

Just as he was about to introduce Xuan Ying, Qi Fanchen interrupted him: "She knows her."

"Director Zhao only said that this item is a treasure he found out from someone else, and it is generally not available for sale in the market." Chen Si Nai explained calmly, "Last night was our crew's wrap-up banquet, and there were about 20 people participating. Everyone got it."

"You seven are the only ones staying here?" Du Heng asked.

"Because the seven of us are going to attend a press conference together tonight, we stayed here all night," Xuan Ying explained.

"Aren't the assistants here? Just the four of them going swimming?"

"There are generally no lifeguards in the swimming pools here, because the pool is shallow, and people who come here generally don't want to have lifeguards there." Lu Changyan said, "The assistants live in the South Pavilion, not next to here."

Du Heng took out a small knife from his pocket, and tried to cut off a small corner of his clothes while talking: "What are you going to do now? If you don't call the police, what will you do with the corpse?"

"They died so strangely. They all drowned in 1.5 meters of water. It doesn't look like an accident." Chen Si said, "If we call the police, will we become suspects?"

Qi Fanchen looked at Xuanying.

Xuan Ying seemed to have been silent since seeing the clothes of these four people, and now she seemed to be distracted and didn't hear Chen Si's words.

"Why can't the clothes be cut off?" Du Heng asked.

"Of course you can't cut it off with that." Cang Luan said in a low voice, took out a small knife from his pocket, and scratched along the mark Du Heng had just cut, and the piece of fabric fell off.

Du Heng: "..."

Cang Luan took the small piece of fabric and found a transparent teapot on the tea table in front of the sofa, which was half filled with water. He threw the small piece of fabric into the teapot through the mouth.

To everyone's surprise, as soon as the fluffy piece of cloth entered the water, it sank quickly to the bottom as if something was sucking it in.

Immediately, he picked up the teapot and poured water on the teacup next to it, only to see that the teapot was tilted, but the piece of fabric underneath seemed to be stuck, sticking to the bottom of the teapot motionless.It wasn't until Cang Luan poured out all the water that the piece of fabric slowly slid out along the side of the teapot.

"This..." Lu Changyan was dumbfounded, "What kind of clothes is this? Why is it like this?"

"That's why they drowned in shallow water." Du Heng understood and said, "When they meet water, they will stick to things and become very heavy. Once they get into the water, they can't come back up again."

"Where are the clothes you received?" Qi Fanchen saw them and said, "Take it out and try it on."

"Give it to the assistant for safekeeping." Lu Changyan said, "Our assistant doesn't know about it yet."

"If it's really the problem with the clothes, then your director cannot escape the blame." Du Heng said solemnly, "The person has been dead for several hours, and sooner or later it will be exposed."

"But Director Zhao certainly didn't expect that someone would wear it for swimming when he gave it to him." Chen Si said, "Is there any problem in wearing it normally?"

"Then you think they died because they did it themselves?" Du Heng raised his eyebrows and asked.

"I didn't say that." Chen Si crossed his arms.

"What kind of clothes is this? Why is it like this?" Lu Changyan asked suspiciously.

At this time, Xuan Ying, who had been silent all this time, said, "This is a very special kind of fabric. I've seen it before, and it's usually no different from ordinary clothes, but I don't know how they are like this."

Hearing this, Qi Fanchen and Cang Luan looked up at her at the same time.

"Now it's best to invite your director Zhao over here and ask where the clothes came from." Du Heng stood up and said, "You probably don't want to be regarded as suspects either."

After a while, Chen Si called Director Zhao.

"Dead?" Director Zhao was puzzled after he finished talking about the situation, "How is it possible? I gave the clothes to many people. Why are they the only ones who are fine?"

"It's just that no one will believe that there is something wrong with the clothes." Du Heng said impatiently, "Let him come directly."

Those who died were all the actors of his crew. This matter cannot be escaped. Director Zhao pushed off the next work on the phone, saying that he would be here in an hour.

Because of this, they might not be able to go to the press conference at night, so Lu Changyan and Chen Si communicated with the assistant about the next arrangement, but Xuanying brought the three of them into a lounge.

"When I caught them up, I found that there was something wrong with their clothes." Xuan Ying returned to the calm look she had seen for the first time, and she said, "This is a shark."

Cang Luan frowned: "You know?"

"This is the unique clothes of mermen. It looks no different from ordinary silk." Xuan Ying moved his eyes to Cang Luan, "You are wearing the same."

"You can see this?" Cang Luan was surprised.

"My mother is a merman, and her job is clothing design. I grew up with her, so I am very familiar with merman." Xuanying turned to ask him, "Are you also the child of a merman and a human?"

"He's a mermaid." Qi Fanchen explained, "So..."

Xuanying looked at Cangluan in surprise: "Merren? Min Zhongshan has already stipulated that Merren are not allowed to go ashore. Could it be..."

Halfway through her speech, she already understood.

"You just said Min Zhongshan?" Cang Luan caught her point, "Is your mother a mermaid from Min Zhongshan?"

"That's right." Xuanying nodded.

"Do you know how to get to Min Zhongshan?" Cang Luan asked.

"I haven't been there." Xuanying paused and said, "My mother gave birth to me on land, and she passed away 12 years ago."

"Ah, I'm sorry." Cang Luan lowered his gaze.

"A disease broke out 12 years ago. At that time, many mermen on land were infected. They basically stayed on land and did not return to Min Zhongshan. Since then, Min Zhongshan has not allowed mermen to interact with humans." Xuan Ying "Where are you going?" recalled.

Cang Luan nodded.

"Although I don't quite understand what you're talking about," Du Heng interjected, "I just want to know why your mermaid's unique clothes appear here?"

"I don't know too well." Hearing this, Xuanying frowned, "Zhao Feng said he just got it last night, and I knew it when he took it out. It's the most worthless piece of silk. It uses the least amount of fabric, and it has no function other than to look good. According to my mother, a crepe made from leftover materials is worth more than this kind of thing.”

"But this kind of clothes are very popular." Cang Luan leaned against the door and said lightly.

Xuanying probably understood the meaning of his words, so he didn't speak.

Qi Fanchen looked at Du Heng, saw that he also had a clear face, and wondered: "Why is this popular?"

"Cough." Du Heng continued to ask, "Is it possible for something like shark silk to circulate in the human market?"

Seeing that he ignored his questioning, Qi Fanchen was depressed, Cang Luan had already taken his hand and pulled him over, put an index finger to his lips, and signaled him not to ask this question.

Qi Fanchen wanted to look up at him, but when he raised his chin, his lips touched Cang Luan's finger that hadn't retracted.

Both of them froze for a moment, Qi Fanchen quickly turned his head away.After two seconds, Cang Luan withdrew his fingers.

But the soft touch reverberated in his heart for several times without dissipating.

"I'm not sure about this." Xuan Ying said hesitantly, "At least I haven't seen it."

"Yes." Cang Luan said, "More than 30 years ago, the sharks who came to the land gathered in Minzhong Mountain. There is an enchantment set up by the sharks in this place, and only the sharks can enter it. They opened a mirage in the sea around Minzhong Mountain, and at a fixed time every year, as long as there are mermaids leading the way, humans can enter the sea, and some mermaids will sell some small things in this place, such as sharks."

Qi Fanchen listened quietly, and within a few seconds of his pause, his eyes shifted inexplicably, and caught Cang Luan's right index finger.

"But the sharks sold by the sharks are generally beautiful, and the pattern design is also in line with human aesthetics. But the premise is that the humans who can enter the mirage are generally the spouses of the sharks." Cangluan continued, "So These sharks are also in their hands."

"Is the mirage still there?" Du Heng asked.

"It's definitely gone." Xuan Ying guessed, "That disease happened 12 years ago, it's impossible to have it again."

"That's right." Cangluan nodded, "I've never seen a mirage either, I just heard about it from my elders, but what I can be sure of is that the silk that was in circulation at that time shouldn't be the same as what those people were wearing."

"However, one possibility is not ruled out." Xuanying said, "Skilled mermaids can transform their clothes."

Cang Luan stopped talking.

After Xuanying finished speaking, she suddenly stared at Qi Fanchen.

"What's wrong?" Qi Fanchen asked.

Xuan Ying didn't speak, walked towards him, reached out and touched his shoulder.Then, she smiled at Cang Luan: "Look, this is the best example."

Cang Luan frowned slightly: "He is also born of sharks and humans."

Du Heng said "ah": "You too?"

Qi Fanchen's eyes showed puzzlement.

"The clothes on his body are remade from crocodile." Xuanying rubbed his hands for a moment, then said, "Ordinary crocodile can only cool down, but his clothes are made of a rare fabric, which can heat up. Your clothes are Where did it come from?"

"When I was adopted by my master, my master gave it to me." Qi Fanchen suddenly remembered something when he said this.

The clothes he was wearing were most likely from the merman who was rescued by his master from the orphanage with him back then.

"Master, it must have been changed." Cang Luan pondered for a moment, "Since this is the case, Director Zhao must not be the only one who can receive this kind of thing."

The four were silent for a moment, and Qi Fanchen said, "Did someone tamper with the crocodile hair on the four of them?"

"It doesn't look like it." Xuanying lowered his head and said, "It looks like there is some kind of curse."

At this time, Cang Luan said: "In the hospital, those five children seem to be controlled by the sharks as well."

"You mean..." Xuanying was slightly surprised, "Is this made by sharks?"

Qi Fanchen simply told Xuanying what happened in the hospital, and said: "These crocodile silk appeared out of nowhere, and I prefer that someone deliberately sold them to these people."

"Why did you do that?" Xuan Ying frowned, "Does the mermaid have any hatred for humans?"

Qi Fanchen and Cang Luan looked at each other without saying a word.

Not long after, a call came from Xuanying's mobile phone, saying that Director Zhao had arrived, and asked where they were.

"Go and meet this Director Zhao." Cang Luan said.

Xuanying was the first to leave the lounge, and Qi Fanchen was about to go out when Du Heng pulled him behind him.

"What?" Qi Fanchen turned around.

"Cang Luan just said that you are also a mermaid?" Du Heng said with a serious face.

"It can only be counted as half." Cang Luan explained behind him.

"I'm not." Du Heng said.

"Ah?" Qi Fanchen couldn't understand his words, "I know you are not."

"Do you still remember those people holding anesthesia guns in the hospital?" Du Heng said deeply, "You said that all the doctors on the first floor passed out, and so did I."

"Yeah." Qi Fanchen nodded, "I didn't."

"Can I say that you have a special constitution?" Du Heng said, "Because you have half the blood of a mermaid?"

"It should be possible to say that." Cang Luan said, "Those anesthesia are basically useless to mermaids."

"Then, besides you, there was another person who was not anesthetized in the hospital at that time." Du Heng's eyes were burning.

"Who?" Qi Fanchen realized the answer as soon as he asked.

"Little friend." Cang Luan said.
