With the strict family style of the Marshal's Mansion, the scene before him was almost unbelievable to the extreme.

Augustus, the old housekeeper, hesitated for a moment, then bent down and picked up Pei Nian's small pillow from the floor. The pillow almost rolled from the bed to the door.

What exactly is this doing?

Can't it be one person and one fish fighting?But it's a little too ridiculous to say anything.

No matter how dazed, the fish Pei Nian gradually sensed something was wrong under the silence, and couldn't help poking Li Yuan next to him.

"Amm?"

Why doesn't this guy talk?

Isn't it you who brought the fish back?

If it wasn't for this guy to hug me back, I wouldn't be so angry, I wouldn't suddenly suffer from insomnia if I wasn't so mad, and I wouldn't lose my scales if I didn't suffer from sudden insomnia! !

"...Yuan Yuan?"

Let's talk!

Holding the scales in his hand, Pei Nian almost reached out to rub Li Yuan's face with his head.

However, as soon as he touched his chin, Li Yuan grasped his hand with fever in his ears, and quickly hugged him from the bed and sat up.

"Am!"

Pei Nian let out a small cry, and was caught off guard by Li Yuan holding his tail and sitting up, holding his own scale in his hand.

"...Because Niannian was a little afraid of the dark yesterday, so I brought him here."

Li Yuan felt a little embarrassed, coughed while hugging the fish in his arms, and forcefully explained.

?

Pei Nian blinked and looked at Li Yuan in disbelief.

This, is this throwing the blame on the fish because the fish can't speak? !

I think you are more or less afraid of the dark!

"... But I remember, there is lighting in the York clerk's fish tank? And it was turned on every year in advance."

After listening to Li Yuan's explanation, Augustus, who was holding the pillow in his hand, had an increasingly suspicious look in his eyes.

Li Yuan: ...

I haven't had time to look at it yet, after all, I didn't understand the fish tank myself.

Is it so fully functional?

On the other hand, Pei Nian, seeing Li Yuan in distress, almost hid his ear softly and snickered.

"Ammmm~!"

As expected of Augustus, he immediately exposed the scapegoat that Li Yuan, a big pig's hoof, threw at the fish!

However, looking down and seeing the fish in his arms snickering to the slightly curved eye ends, Li Yuan couldn't help rubbing Pei Nian's hair helplessly.

How could this little guy get into trouble.

Be quiet in the morning, so as not to be discovered by Augustus, this meeting is actually laughing.

Why do you feel a little heartless when you raise a fish by yourself?

"Hmm... I'm sorry, Steward Augustus, but I was actually a little afraid of the dark last night, so I brought Nian Nian here."

This time Li Yuan gave a new explanation with a calm expression.

Anyway, I can't explain it clearly, just find a temporary reason.

……

However, obviously, this reason is a bit too temporary.

Not only Augustus, the old butler, pushed his glasses dumbly, but even Pei Nian, who was hiding from a snigger, opened his eyes wide, and couldn't help but curl his tail and blush for Li Yuan.

Hey, hey, this reason...is too ridiculous!

Fortunately, this guy can still talk nonsense seriously.

"...I don't know that the young master is afraid of the dark just like Niannian. The Marshal and Madam are not at home, but this time it's just that. It's just that this kind of thing can't happen in the future no matter what."

"Especially when it gets bigger and bigger every year, young master, you should at least take good care of the little guy, and it should be the right way."

Augustus sighed, but stopped trying to figure out what was going on.

It's just that this little mermaid, Niannian, always feels that if he grows up a bit, it might be a bit inappropriate to cuddle and sleep together like this?

Originally, I was worried that I would not be used to sleeping with a fish every year, but why did the problem appear on the young master's side?

"Hey, I won't in the future. But Steward Augustus, I want to take Niannian to the military headquarters today, just in time for a pheromone re-examination, and I can show Niannian a look."

Seeing that Steward Augustus no longer pursued it, Li Yuan made a serious point.

Hearing this, Augustus turned around and took a look, Li Yuan happened to hold Pei Nian's hand holding the scales as a gesture.

"Because the little guy seems to have lost his scales, I'm a little worried."

"Am?"

Caught off guard by this fellow Li Yuan holding his palm up, Pei Nian subconsciously looked at Augustus, the crystal-like scales in his palm were extremely beautiful.

However, the problem symbolized behind the scales is undoubtedly a little bit serious.

"Did it lose its scales?"

Augustus adjusted his glasses, and also stared at the scales for a while, then at the fish Pei Nian.

"This is indeed a little bit of attention. How can it lose scales every year?"

Although the scales of the little guy are still a little round and cute.

Nodding approvingly, Augustus' attention was focused on the scales in Pei Nian's palm for a moment.

"...Ugh!"

Li Yuan, that bastard, why did he still sell the fish!

And when Pei Nian realized it, he didn't even have time to hide the scales in his hand!

It's really disgusting, why there are so many things when you lose a scale... It wouldn't fall off at first, maybe it will fall more next time after looking at it!

I was really wrong, as a fish, the problem of losing scales is much more terrible than losing hair!

And if you want to go to the military headquarters, isn't it very likely that you will meet that devil, York's clerk! ?

Can I not go? !

"Then hurry up and change your clothes, and arrange someone to tidy up the room immediately."

Butler Augustus shook his head, always feeling that his young master's personality has changed a bit since he raised fish.

Probably not a bad thing though.

A black low-key energy car parked outside the gate of the military headquarters. After the guards opened the door with a salute, the young man in uniform got out of the car and turned to look into the car.

"Do you want to hug or go by yourself?"

The originally somewhat solemn and cold aura suddenly became a little gentle under this inexplicably permissive soft question.

The guards, who were always expressionless, all glanced curiously.

Isn't this the young master from the Marshal's Mansion?It seems that he has just become an adult not long ago, is he already engaged to a lady from a noble family?He actually took him to the military headquarters.

"...Ammmm"

However, unexpectedly, there was a soft call from inside the car, with a helpless and petulant look.

Pei Nian flicked his tail, and then looked at Li Yuan who was patiently waiting for him outside the car door, obviously knowing that this time probably he really couldn't escape.

Ah, but Yu really hates going to the doctor, especially this time to the military headquarters? ?

After all, I am a fake fish!What to do in case of being exposed.

Whispering, he supported the car seat and slowly moved down, but when he tried to jump off, Li Yuan stretched out his hands and clasped his waist into his arms.

"Am?"

Pei Nian couldn't help but whispered into Li Yuan's ear, leaning on his neck and looking around curiously.

The map design of this game APP is really exquisite. The words of the military department really have a very serious and grand feeling. The fish with high marble buildings have to look up to see it.

A little afraid to speak out loud.

As for the first time Li Yuan brought the little guy to the military headquarters, he actually had a subtle sense of novelty, especially when he noticed that Pei Nian was looking around with his eyes wide open, he couldn't help showing a little smile.

The guard next to him looked at the rare scene in front of him, but he was a little surprised. That young master Li Yuan actually held a mermaid in his arms?

Especially when those silver-blue eyes swept across, people couldn't help feeling a little bit holding their breath.

Probably because she is too beautiful, so beautiful that she feels a little unreal, so there will be a strange dreamy feeling, as if the bubble will disappear in the next moment.

"Go inside right away and come down by yourself? There's no carpet outside."

Li Yuan turned his face to the side and spoke to Pei Nian in a low voice. After Pei Nian nodded obediently, he walked towards the main building with the fish in his arms.

Since it was a rest day, there were not as many staff members in the building as usual.

"Major General Li Yuan, good morning!"

Even so, after saluting to Li Yuan, those passing by occasionally couldn't help but be attracted by the mermaid in the young man's arms.

Li Yuan nodded, but Pei Nian, the fish hiding in Li Yuan's arms, suddenly looked at the person in front of him, feeling a little uncomfortable being stared at.

He hesitated for a while, after all, Li Yuan has already returned the salute, so it seems that this fish himself should be a little polite?

After all, Augustus often teaches fish to be polite~

"Amm... howling?"

Pressing against Li Yuan's ear nervously, Pei Nian stretched out his hand tentatively to say hello.

"Ah? This fish of yours, Major General Li Yuan... is it greeting us?"

The two staff members looked at each other subconsciously, especially Chiveco, who had been staring at Pei Nian inside, was even more incredible.

I never expected that the fish I saw in the video conference a few days ago was actually real!

Oh my god, I haven't seen you for a few days, why do I feel like I've grown up a bit since then!

Li Yuan didn't expect that Pei Nian, who was only a little "introverted", would take the initiative to greet people. The key is that he still looks decent and extremely polite.

Is this taught by Augustus?Why do you feel so cute?

...?

Pei Nian didn't expect that after he said hello, he would be watched by everyone with piercing eyes.

Hey, hey, what's going on!

Sure enough, as a fish, you should not take the initiative to speak!

Being stared at with panic, Pei Nian grabbed his collar and looked at Li Yuan again. The next moment, he couldn't help but bury the whole fish behind Li Yuan's ears and didn't want to come out.

Li Yuan was actually amused, because he was still shy in the first place.

"Yes, I should have greeted you just now, and I am learning to speak recently."

Smiling lightly, he explained to the two staff members in front of him, and Li Yuan rubbed Pei Nian's little ears in a comforting manner, which actually made Pei Nian tremble and hugged his ears even tighter.

"Mermaids are indeed a species that is very suitable for language learning. Their vocal cords can also produce beautiful sounds, especially your fish looks very smart."

Civico thought about the "Hello" he just heard, and began to analyze it with a bit of occupational disease.

But when he heard someone sincerely boasting about the fish in his bosom, Li Yuan suddenly felt an extremely subtle sense of accomplishment.

Probably as happy as the little guy I raised with my own hands was praised.

"Are you the most recent Civico researcher in charge of the Linguistic Intelligence Engineering project?"

Glancing at the identity plate on Civico's chest, Li Yuan looked at the new researcher with some interest.

I've heard of it before, but unexpectedly, it seems that he is indeed a person who is quite interested in research.

"Yes, Major General Li Yuan! And I think this mermaid of yours is really talented. Most mermaids can also sing, and the effect on mental healing is also a hot spot that has been researched recently..."

Chiveco was a little excited when he mentioned his profession, and couldn't hold back for a while, so he chatted around the topic.

Only, after hearing Civico talk about singing...

Li Yuan involuntarily glanced at Pei Nian in his arms, but what he didn't expect was that Pei Nian in his arms also pricked up his ears sharply, and directly looked at Li Yuan ferociously.

... and singing? !

What peaches are you thinking of eating!Go fish!

As for Li Yuan's words, he couldn't help laughing just by staring at Pei Nian's obviously annoyed little expression.

Even his speech is vague, and if he sings, it is probably too difficult for his own fish.

"Sorry, I'm afraid it's a little too difficult for him to sing, after all, his pronunciation isn't even up to standard."

Li Yuan responded to Chiveco seriously, but Chiveco scratched his head in embarrassment.

I seem to be a little quick-talking for a while.

"But don't underestimate the mermaid in your arms. After all, the mermaid species used to be a highly intelligent species left over from the ancient blue star, but now many people ignore it."

After all, relying on the talent of voice and spiritual power, the so-called mermaid was once a very dangerous existence.

Especially seeing what humans are doing to mermaids now, always makes me a little unconsciously worried.

So when he was saying goodbye, Chiveco gave a serious reminder.

Higher intelligent species?

After saying goodbye to Chiveco, Li Yuan subconsciously hugged the fish tightly in his arms.

"Amm!"

Take a look, see what to see!It is said that fish are very smart.

Pei Nian pulled the end of Li Yuan's hair unexpectedly, but it was rare for Li Yuan to snort in surprise.

Why is the little guy getting more and more tempered recently?

Li Yuan's office is on the 68th floor, and he can almost see the whole picture of Emperor Star Center.

After entering, Li Yuan turned on the heater switch on the side, and by the way put the fish Pei Nian on the carpet.

Pei Nian ran to the french window with his tail poofing, stuck to the glass and looked at it seriously.

Damn, this game feels like it can be set as a sightseeing setting, and there is something inexplicably magnificent in the future interstellar era!I have been staying at home before, so I still need to go out and walk to broaden my horizons! ?

"Major General Li Yuan, do you still remember to come for a review?"

Just when Pei Nian opened his eyes wide and looked out the window, a voice came from behind him suddenly, which instantly made Pei Nian subconsciously turn his head to look over.

It's a short-haired woman in a white coat. She looks like a very smart scientific research master, but the eyebrows feel a little familiar?

"Recently, An Dongya was asked to go home for a review, but he didn't come to the military specifically."

Li Yuan explained that instead of going to the desk to prepare documents, he handed a pack of strawberry candies to Pei Nian who turned around.

"A.M"

Seeing Li Yuan take this out of his uniform pocket, Pei Nian was a little surprised.

After all, this pink bag really doesn't match well.

Count him a bit conscientious.

"My younger brother, An Dongya, although he got full marks in almost all subjects when he graduated, I suggest you don't trust him too much, after all..."

"Hey, this is the fish you raised, how do you feel it has grown up?"

Halfway through her speech, An Lisi suddenly saw the fish by the window, and somehow felt that it was hard to move her eyes away.

Probably because this little mermaid is no longer a juvenile fish like what my brother said, but instead looks like a teenager.

Well, looking at it, I always feel like the young master Li Yuan has raised a younger brother, hey, he is as beautiful as a doll, why is his hair longer than his own?

All dragged to the ground.

"Yes, and today is actually mainly for him to see. Because when he got up in the morning, he lost a scale."

Li Yuan handed over the bag of candy in his hand, and spoke seriously to An Lisi.

?

"Did you lose your scales? Then you really found the right person. Compared with An Dongya, who became a monk halfway to study mermaids, my doctoral thesis is about mermaids."

"Where are the scales, show me?"

Alice habitually took out the diagnosis and treatment sheet, and almost dragged Pei Nian over for a full-body examination.

After all, you have to know that it is still a rare research opportunity to personally contact a growing little mermaid!

"Amm... Bu want!"

> -

Pei Nian was leaning on the french window when Li Yuan stared at the scales that he had been holding in his hands all the time. He shook his head but refused to hand them over. In a moment of desperation, he even spoke out.

"Ah, it's actually a talking fish??? This is very rare."

Unexpectedly, this made Alice even more interested.

Can't tell, this fish that is so beautiful that it looks a bit like a doll is actually so smart?

"Let's show it to the doctor. What if I get sick? I'll return it to you after reading it, okay?"

Li Yuan even squatted down and looked at Pei Nian, trying to coax the little guy to hand over the scales in his hand obediently.

However, Pei Nian took half a step back and ignored the scales while holding the scales. He turned his head indifferently for a second, leaving only a dull hair and the back of his head for Li Yuan.

"Hahaha, I can't see that my temper is a little bit big. Is this shy? Actually, there is no need to worry. Generally, after the mermaid breaks out of its shell, it begins to enter the growth stage, and it will drop the first scale as a message."

It was rare for An Lisi to see Li Yuan deflated, and she couldn't help laughing out loud. She just looked at the scales in Pei Nian's palm and recalled it thoughtfully.

"However, it is said that the first scale of the mermaid has a special meaning."

"Special significance?"

Li Yuan, who was half squatting, glanced at An Lisi, and then stared at the scale in Pei Nian's hand.

Could it be that there is really some special significance, so there is such a big reaction in the morning?

However, the fish Pei Nian actually looked at An Lisi blankly for an instant.

What special significance?

Does dropping scales still have a special meaning?What about the hair that falls out?

"That's right, the first scale that the mermaids drop will be instinctively kept by them, because it symbolizes that they have entered the growth period where they can court a mate."

"The most important thing is that when they find their only partner in their lifetime, they will exchange each other's first scale. For the very dedicated mermaid race, this is a very precious token."

An Lisi looked at Pei Nian, a beautiful little mermaid, and couldn't help adding a little jokingly:

"And this little fish of yours is so beautiful, you have to help him look at the scales, if someone else picks it up, it will really run away."

"After all, mermaids have a lingering myth and legend. The first scale is an existence blessed by the God of Love. It will have a magical power of marriage, and it is destined to attract in the dark!"

……

Fuck, why does this f---ing scale have such a terrible metaphysical meaning? ? ?

Hearing this, Pei Nian opened his eyes wide and looked at the scales in his hand in disbelief. Under the sunlight, they were so beautiful that they glowed with crystal luster, but he had no idea...there could be a myth about this thing?

So what if it is taken away by a dog? ?

Mermaids are - what - a big race, so they are not reliable at all!Like a love brain!

Although, it seems that there are no dogs in the sea...

"Ammm?!"

Just when Pei Nian looked down at his mysterious scale that was said to be "blessed by the God of Love", he suddenly called out, and even the fish with the scales was picked up by Li Yuan from the French window.

? ?

Li Yuan, what is he going to do...

qaq

"If you want to keep it, put it here."

After Li Yuan beside him finished speaking calmly, Pei Nian also stared blankly at the huge safe in front of him.

On the outermost layer of the cabinet, there are a bunch of military medals that are shining with gold, and you can tell that they have a long history. The weak and inaudible cold breath even gives people an unconscious sense of oppression.

Only at this moment, a piece of round scales messed in, and the crystal-clear scales were placed on top.

"Ammmm..."

Is this really okay? ?Locked in a safe? ?

Is it necessary to do so much?

Why do I feel that this scale of my own is a bit unworthy, as if a Samoyed ran into a pack of snow wolves.

Pei Nian scratched his head at a loss, looked at Li Yuan beside him, and then at his own scales, suddenly wanted to reach out and take them back.

This, this, just go home and put it under the pillow.

This guy Li Yuan just likes to make a fuss out of a molehill, blah, he's not as picky as a fish!

"Amm—!"

However, just as Pei Nian reached out to take back his scales, Li Yuan hugged him and pulled him back into his arms.

After hesitating for a moment, Li Yuan reached out and took out a somewhat old hexagonal medal, and silently handed it to Pei Nian.

???

Pei Nian held the heavy dark gold medal in his hand, and felt that it seemed to be a bit old.

Lift it up and take a closer look, there seems to be a slightly sunken bullet mark on it?

Uh... it shouldn't be a bullet, wouldn't it kill you if you hit a bullet...

"If you are worried, I will take this for you, and I will change it back when I grow up."

As for what An Lisi said about the growth period for courtship, Li Yuan subconsciously chose to ignore it.

My fish has only been out of its shell for a few days, and it can grow, but courtship is definitely not enough.

Before Pei Nian could react, he just watched Li Yuan lock the extremely thick cabinet door with a "click", and locked his inexplicably pitiful little scale with a cabinet of menacing military medals. Woke up.

Good guy, good guy, Li Yuan is really good at keeping things...

At least now you don't have to worry about being picked up by a dog? ?
