Raise me, I'm super sweet

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

The next morning, when Qi Fanchen opened his eyes, Cang Luan was no longer in the room.

He just picked up his phone to check the time, it was already nine o'clock.At this moment, a message popped up.

[Du Heng]: [Are you awake?Go downstairs for breakfast. 】

Qi Fanchen waited for a while before sitting up from the bed.Thinking of what I did secretly last night, I still blush and my heart beats.

Hope he doesn't find out.

After washing up, he went down to the first floor and found that Cang Luan was sitting with Gu Huai on the waiting sofa in the lobby. Cang Luan turned his back to him, but Gu Huai saw him coming down and waved to him: "Brother Good morning."

Just as Qi Fanchen was about to say hello to him, he raised his hand in the air, when Cang Luan turned to look at him, feeling guilty and feeling a little overwhelmed.

"Are you ready?" Cang Luan smiled at him, "Let's go have breakfast, Du Heng is going to help us get the sign."

After speaking, Du Heng had already returned from the front desk, holding three cards in his hand, and said helplessly: "The front desk said we only registered three people, so there are only three cards."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Gu Huai, said with a smirk, "Or you can have a portion with me, kid."

"I don't want it." Gu Huai snorted.

"Are you still not happy?" Du Heng let out a hey, held him and said, "We all slept in the same bed last night, we are good brothers, and good brothers should have the same blessings and share the same difficulties."

Gu Huai felt that what he said was reasonable, said "Okay", and followed him into the restaurant.

Cang Luan glanced at Qi Fanchen, who was a little embarrassed to approach him, and said to himself that it was rare to see him out of his mind.He called him: "Let's go."

Qi Fanchen hesitated for a moment, and followed behind him.

The four of them entered the restaurant, Gu Huai went to take up a seat first, and Qi Fanchen followed Cang Luan to pick up the plates and choose the food, step by step.The breakfast provided by the hotel was very rich, Qi Fanchen didn't get much food after walking around twice.

When Cang Luan turned her head, seeing that he was absent-minded, she leaned closer and asked, "What's the matter? Didn't sleep well last night?"

"Ah." Qi Fanchen returned to his senses, and shook his head lightly, "No."

While speaking, Qi Fanchen raised his head, and with his height, he was just able to look at Cang Luan's chin, and he could see his lips when he raised his eyes a little.

As if being scalded, Qi Fanchen quickly withdrew his gaze, lowered his head and followed Du Heng who was in front of him back to the dining table.

I saw Gu Huai occupying a six-person table by himself, sitting on the sofa seat and playing with his legs dangling.And beside him, sat a young woman.

The woman looked no older than 20, with a red birthmark the size of a fingernail under her left eye.

"Who is this?" Du Heng sat next to Gu Huai.

"Brother, this sister said she came to see you." Gu Huai said.

"Looking for us?" Qi Fanchen sat down with Du Heng, looked at the woman, "Do we know each other?"

"Now we can recognize each other." The woman's voice was hoarse, as if it was a man's voice.

Cang Luan sat down after him, looking at her inexplicably.

"I finally found you." The woman looked at Cang Luan sharply, and a smile finally appeared on her ordinary face, "My name is Yuqing."

Qi Fanchen looked at her, his face regained his composure: "Are you looking for us?"

"That's right." Yuqing only turned her head to look around, and said in a low voice, "This is not a good place to talk."

"Then we have to finish eating." Du Heng handed another plate to Gu Huai, "We just arrived, I'm almost starving to death."

"You guys go ahead and eat first." Yuqing said patiently, "I've been waiting for so long, it's only a few minutes away."

Qi Fanchen just glanced at her suspiciously, then lowered his head and began to eat breakfast.

"Sister, are you also a member of the association?" Gu Huai asked curiously.

"No." Du Heng said casually, "There are very few female members in the association, and I know all of them."

"..." Qi Fanchen asked in a low voice, "How did you find us?"

"There was news yesterday that several celebrities drowned. I guess you will be around there." Yuqing's voice didn't fluctuate as she spoke, as if she was reciting a text, "It's a wealthy area over there, and there is no accommodation except the Earl's Mansion. place, the nearest hotel is only here. So I'll try my luck."

Hearing this, Cang Luan became curious: "Why don't we live in the Earl's mansion?"

Du Heng and Qi Fanchen glanced at him at the same time, but did not speak.

Yuqing was very straightforward: "That's not a place you can afford."

Cang Luan: "..."

"Why don't you use the app if you want to find us?" Du Heng asked, "It's faster that way."

"I'm looking for 'you', not any member of your association." Yuqing said.

"Okay." Du Heng urged Gu Huai, "Hurry up and eat, or you will be left here alone."

Gu Huai pouted: "You said just now that we are good brothers!"

"I can be your father now. Calling you brother and brother is flattering you. Don't be ignorant of flattering." Du Heng rubbed his head.

"..." Qi Fanchen stood up, "Let's go."

Before they checked out, they went back to Du Heng's room.

"Speak." Cang Luan said, "What's the matter with you?"

"I know your identity." Yu Qing stared at Cang Luan and said, "You are a shark."

Qi Fanchen's heart sank, he looked at Cang Luan, but his face was calm when he saw him.

"Don't worry, I'm human." Yuqing said seriously, "I didn't come to harm you, I came to save you."

"You are so vague, how do we know what your purpose is?" Du Heng interrupted, "Also, how did you know that he is a mermaid?"

"I'll explain, please listen to me patiently." Yuqing didn't flinch because of their doubts, she asked, "Have you seen a male nurse named Xin Jing in Yangpu Hospital?"

Just as Du Heng was about to speak, Qi Fanchen answered, "Yes. But he is missing now."

"His identity was suspected by the director, and he has already escaped." Yuqing kept her eyes locked on Cangluan while speaking, "Those people invaded the hospital in the middle of the night, just to catch you."

"Wait." Du Heng was confused, "How do you know this?"

"Because I just escaped from those people."

As soon as she finished speaking, Qi Fanchen immediately asked: "Who are those people?"

"Twelve years ago, a few patients suddenly came to Yangpu Hospital. They were mermaids infected with the evil fruit. The dean at that time used these people as experimental subjects and dissected them." Yu Qing still spoke calmly, like It was talking about something that had nothing to do with her. "At that time, besides the dean, there were some people who participated in the research together. Later, the dean stopped. In order to prevent the dean from disclosing the news, those people took all the information related to the research. Everything was taken away from the hospital."

Qi Fanchen looked at her puzzled, and before he could ask, Yuqing took the initiative to explain her identity: "I was also one of the researchers at that time."

After the words fell, all three fell silent.

"What did you tell us to do?" Cang Luan asked with a frown.

"I didn't come here to ask for your forgiveness, I know my crime is too deep." Having said this, Yuqing's tone softened a little, "I just want you to know that those researchers who were crazy about mermaids back then , They did not give up because of the disappearance of the merman. After so many years, they even created weapons specially used to deal with merman. They are very ambitious and are planning the next hunt. Once you or other mermen are caught I'm afraid they will use this to lure other mermen, and then they will catch them all."

She used one word, "hunt".

"They set up a research room secretly, and I was locked there. In order to survive, I could only pretend to agree to ally with them." Yuqing continued, "And Xin Jing is the eyeliner they put in Yangpu. Besides the dean, as long as there are mermen appearing in Yangpu, everyone in the research office will know about it."

Cang Luan stared at her for a moment, then said, "How did you escape?"

Hearing this, Yuqing fell silent.

Du Heng squinted his eyes: "How can we be sure that you are not the eyeliner who was sent out?"

"If I were the eyeliner, I wouldn't need to tell you these things." Yuqing avoided Cangluan's question.

"The best way to cheat trust is to tell the truth about yourself." Qi Fanchen said in a low voice.

"I have something that may prove my identity." Yuqing said, taking out something from her underwear pocket.

It was a black square wooden sign, the size of a palm, with silver tassels falling down.There is a golden totem in the center of the wooden sign, the surface is rough and uneven, Qi Fanchen who is close can see that this wooden sign is densely engraved with many strange pictographic symbols.

Qi Fanchen is very familiar with this totem.He has seen many times on the things Cang Luan gave him.

"I've seen that symbol before!" Gu Huai, who had been playing with his phone beside him, suddenly pointed to the wooden sign in Yuqing's hand.

"Have you seen it?" Du Heng asked him funny, "Where have you seen it?"

Gu Huai pretended to be mysterious, blinked, and didn't tell him.

"Why do you have such a thing?" Cang Luan asked in a deep voice, "You just said you were human."

"I'm a human being." Yuqing said affirmatively, "I'm just cooperating with the sharks."

"This is no ordinary merman." Cang Luan narrowed his eyes, revealing danger in his eyes.

Qi Fanchen stared at the wooden sign and asked, "What is this?"

"This is a symbol of the identity of the leader of the mermen, and there are only two yuan." Cang Luan raised his eyes to look at her with a solemn tone, "You have met the leader of Min Zhongshan."

"I haven't seen it before, I was just told, this can prove my sincerity." Yuqing said, "So you still refuse to believe me?"

"Nanhai and Min Zhongshan have lost contact for a long time." Cang Luan only said.

"Then why did you come to land?" Yuqing changed her tone and asked, "Don't you want to go to Min Zhongshan?"

Cang Luan fell silent.

"I think sincerity is enough." Qi Fanchen said, "So what is your purpose for coming to us?"

"Those people are very familiar with mermaids. As long as there are mermaids on land, they are the biggest threat and must be eliminated." Yuqing put away the wooden sign and said, "Only Min Zhongshan has the ability to get rid of them. shark."

"So what do you mean?" Du Heng asked.

"I know how to get to Min Zhongshan." Yuqing looked at Cangluan with burning eyes, "But to enter Min Zhongshan must be guided by a shark, so I'm here to cooperate with you."

"Your words made me doubt the authenticity." Cang Luan suddenly smiled, "You have the badge of the leader, but you say you have never met the leader. You know the way to Minzhong Mountain, but you have never been there .”

"Who is cooperating with you?" Qi Fanchen asked.

"I have the responsibility to keep him secret." Yuqing only said, "Once his identity is revealed, neither of us will end well."

Du Heng looked at Qi Fanchen, saw him pondering, and only said: "Let's discuss it."

"Okay." Yuqing went to open the door readily, before leaving, she turned around and said, "I hope you won't make me wait too long."

After the door was closed, Du Heng shrugged and said, "I probably know what she means. There are many doubts about her."

"Since she was one of the former researchers, she must know more about those people than us." Qi Fanchen pondered, "She was able to find us, which means that our whereabouts must have been exposed in their eyes."

"Have you ever been to Minzhong Mountain?" Du Heng asked Cangluan.

"I went there once 12 years ago." Cang Luan recalled, "At that time, an infectious disease broke out among the mermaids. My father sent me and a few doctors here. I once stayed in Minzhong Mountain for a while."

"Then you don't remember the way?" Du Heng asked again.

"I don't remember." When Cang Luan said this, he doubted, "Min Zhongshan's location is extremely hidden. If he didn't go in and out frequently, even the sharks might not be able to find the location."

"Yuqing knows things far beyond our imagination." Qi Fanchen said, "Maybe we can trust her."

"She's right. Now that my identity is exposed, I'm very likely to be arrested." Cang Luan echoed.

"So you want to cooperate?" Du Heng looked at the two of them.

"Try." Cang Luan looked at him and said, "I have no other choice."
