Mermaid Law

"Hey, boy, wake up, you are so brave, you dare to sleep next to this guy." The complicated voices continued in my ears...

Yu Jingnian slowly opened his eyes, he hadn't had that dream for a long time, the vast expanse of sea area in the dream and the mermaid hunting scene that he might have visited... This memory was almost a shadow in his youth, But when he grew up, it became his inhuman resentment, and he wanted to see the mermaid with his own eyes.Unexpectedly, ten years later, he actually realized it.

"Boy, I heard that you stayed with this guy without any protection for several hours? I came to see a miracle." Yu Jingnian finally came to his senses with the noisy voice and the weird Chinese.He stood up from the ground and stared blankly at the man in front of him, a foreigner.

"You are……"

"Hi, my name is Leo, I'm from New York, and I'm here to provide you with technical assistance." The blond man reached out and shook Yu Jingnian's hand.

Yu Jingnian looked up, only to find that everyone in the research institute was there, two people headed by Mr. Chen and Han Dong were standing behind Leo, their expressions were rather ugly.

"Hello, my name is Yu Jingnian." Yu Jingnian looked at him confusedly.

"Yes, I heard about you as soon as I came here. I'm really lucky." Leo smiled brightly, but his tone was a little sarcastic. Seeing that Yu Jingnian didn't respond, he finally couldn't help explaining, "You know, many Years ago, in order to capture Eve alive in Canada, two scientific researchers died from the claws and teeth of the mermaid. Their claws are no different from knives, and they can make you into sushi at any time."

Han Dong's face turned pale, and he pulled Yu Jingnian to his side, "You should stay away from that glass box, I'm a little worried."

"Han, you are still the same, always protecting these little guys like a hen." Leo has a tall figure unique to the Nordic race, close to two meters in height, and his strong body is covered by a white coat. A professional athlete in general.He has blue eyes and blond hair, but the smile on his face is always ironic, even if he is not proficient in Chinese, it makes people feel weird.

"Shut up." Han Dong replied blankly.

"Ahem, now is not the time to quarrel. Since Mr. Leo has more experience with mermaids, why not introduce the situation of mermaids first." Although the team leader, Mr. Chen, was somewhat displeased with this arrogant foreigner, he still had to do it first. A peacemaker, calm down the people on both sides first.

Yu Jingnian heard that Leo and Han Dong knew each other, and seeing Han Dong's obviously upset face, he guessed that it was definitely not a good memory, so Yu Jingnian wisely shut up and turned to look at Fei Lian.

Fei Lian looked very bad.The opening and closing of the gills of the fish was not as strong as before, but it seemed much slower, and even the beautiful black eyes gradually became lifeless, and the fins swayed slightly with the water flow, but the frequency was extremely low.

Yu Jingnian frowned, and couldn't help feeling worried.Mermaids should be ferocious animals, with sharp teeth and claws, a strong tail with well-developed muscles, a secret weapon that can resonate with the air, and the intelligence to use tools... They should be more terrifying than any carnivorous animal on the sea, But why has it been difficult for human beings to discover the secret of mermaids for so many years?

"He seems to be in a very weak condition now..." Yu Jingnian said.

"Oh, no, judging from what I have learned before, his current state cannot be called weak. The body temperature of the mermaid is extremely low, and the fat in the body can store a large amount of heat, which can guarantee nutrition for three days. He is just instinctively Adjust yourself to the lowest consumption state, slow down your metabolism, and ensure your own survival. I bet if you let him out now, he can kill us all in 1 minute. Every year, people in the institute die in Eve They have extremely high IQs and are proud and arrogant, and they are very resistant to being kept in captivity. According to the data from Canada in the early years, after Eve was arrested, she refused to eat for more than half a month. But looking at it now Apparently, male mermaids are much less aggressive than female mermaids." Leo observed Fei Lian's situation with great interest, "Okay, we can now read the information I brought, as for this one, I can't guarantee that you can feed him."

Everyone left the room together and walked towards the laboratory.Han Dong deliberately dragged Yu Jingnian to the end, as if he had something to say to him.

"Han Dong, do you know that Leo?" Yu Jingnian also asked him curiously.

"Don't mention that bastard to me!" Speaking of Leo, Han Dong gritted his teeth and said, "He is a lunatic. I really regret that I went to the United States to study as a graduate student. It was a nightmare to be a classmate with him! I I warn you, it's best to stay away from him."

Han Dong's temperament has always been good, even a little indecisive. In Yu Jingnian's words, he just feels like a mother who has trouble, and he likes to take care of others the most.In Yu Jingnian's memory, it was rare for Leo to make Han Dong hate him to such an extent.So he nodded obediently, and by the way, he also had a little resistance to this expert who was going to work with him in the future.

But soon, Leo's question was forgotten by Yu Jingnian, and several pictures of mermaids appeared on the LCD screen in the small conference room.The female mermaid closed her eyes peacefully. There was a bloody scar on her abdominal cavity, and many scales on her tail were peeled off and damaged.This photo is exactly the situation of the mermaid corpse released by the United States many years ago.Subsequently, a series of details were displayed on the screen.Including the genitals of the merman, the dissection of the internal organs, and the decomposition of the fish tail.

"According to the results of the anatomy, there are two sets of respiratory systems in the mermaid, including lungs similar to humans and a set of alveoli for underwater breathing. Other organs in the mermaid have complete mammalian characteristics, which are very similar to humans , including the heart, liver, stomach, large and small intestines, etc... even their tails are two cartilage tissues that are cohesive and adhered together, and the surrounding muscles are so developed that they can smash human bones in an instant. In our place, many people tend to Mermaids evolved from sharks, although I think this is fart. Keke, back to the topic, most of the time, the weapons used by mermaids when hunting are claws." Leo snapped his fingers, and the screen changed again, this time it appeared is a video.

In the sea, a female mermaid flies past the top of the camera quickly, followed by an adult hammerhead shark, and then the camera slowly follows the mermaid. The female mermaid stops in front of a coral reef and turns to face the shark .The shark was almost twice as long as hers, but it moved extremely fast, leaping towards the mermaid like lightning, and Yu Jingnian's heart sank.

The mermaid's tail trembled slightly, and the whole body jumped up. The shark moved too fast and hit the coral reef behind the mermaid.The hard hammer made a muffled sound, and then the mermaid suddenly turned around, stabbing the shark with both paws!This movement was too fast, almost like lightning, the blood gradually overflowed in the sea water, the female mermaid grinned and let out a soft whistle.The nails on her paws suddenly swelled nearly half a meter, piercing the shark's head.A little mermaid swam out from behind a coral reef and docked slowly beside her mother, fingering the shark's skin.The female mermaid pulls her claws off the shark's head and slowly cuts open the shark's skin...

The picture turned black, and everyone present was stunned by such a fast and bloody hunting scene.

"The two mermaids on the screen are Eve and her daughter. This is a picture we took ten years ago in a captive sea area in Hawaii, where Eve and her daughter are now living. But the head hammer The head shark swam in through the hole in the isolation net. We don't know if it was because he smelled the little mermaid, but the result was as seen above. Mermaids are extremely ferocious animals, I think you guys I have realized that if you want to come into close contact with mermaids, please be prepared to die. As for what you said before, it seems that Eve does not have this kind of power, which is similar to the sonic resonance weapon. I speculate that this may be the reason A power unique to a few mermaids. At least in the male mermaids we dissected in 2155, no organs that can achieve this function have been found."

When Leo said this, he paused, and couldn't help sighing, "So you are really lucky, that mermaid didn't kill you all. Of course, it doesn't rule out that mermaids are not violent animals, but because of widowhood It made Eve violent, or menopause..."

Leo talked more and more vigorously, and the follow-up topics had been distorted by him.The faces of all the old experts present showed weird expressions, while Han Dong had such an expression on his face, and then covered his face unbearably.

But Yu Jingnian didn't listen to Leo's words after the video ended. He remembered the bloody scene he had seen when he was young, the big fish killed by the mermaid, and he didn't know until many years later that it was an Asian Osteoglossus Most of the fish were less than half a meter long, and they seemed as huge as they were seen that day, and they seemed to have never been seen before.Yu Jingnian also wondered for a long time, but according to his memory, he couldn't think of what other fish it could be.

What he cared about was the way the mermaid hunted just now.Piercing the shark's head with its claws seems to be a habitual action, which might mean something, Yu Jingnian couldn't help thinking.

"Okay, having said so much, let's talk about a troublesome thing at present. According to past experience, it is impossible for mermaids to be raised in a pool. They don't eat dead things, and they are very aggressive. , like to catch prey by themselves, especially aquatic creatures larger than them, including sharks and whales. This means that although the mermaid in the glass box will not starve to death temporarily, we may have to Open up a new place for him. There must be coral reefs, large fishes, and it will be beneficial to our further research and discussion. I know that everyone is very curious about our research results in recent years, but before receiving orders from the higher-ups, the last I can’t tell you the core content yet. Our common goal now is how to raise the mermaid well and ensure that his weight doesn’t drop significantly.” Leo blinked playfully when he said this, and immediately, he looked like As if thinking of something interesting, he turned his head and glanced at Han Dong.

Han Dong gave him a hard look, then lowered his head as if he didn't see him.

Mr. Chen sat in front, nodded after a little thought, and said, "I'll contact the Hainan Research Institute right now, and there should be such a venue there. As for the food, it's really not enough. We can secondment with aquariums around the world. I think, Some less expensive varieties are still available."

Leo nodded with satisfaction, "Then, let's act now. I hope we can board the plane to Hainan by this time tomorrow."
