[Zhongyingmei] Hear the sound

While Arnott was still struggling with what to do, Nierid had already made a choice for her—he came out of the shop.

He looked very calm, with the same broad smile on the corner of his mouth as before, holding a suitcase with a size of about 24 inches in his hand. The shops around him obviously knew him, and someone asked him aloud What are you doing with such a big box home? The man showed a shy smile, and replied softly that it was full of scraps and scraps from repairing instruments these days. .

This kind of answer drew good-natured smiles from everyone. Although he felt that such a move was unnecessary, it was obviously not the first time he had done this, and his love for musical instruments was obvious to all, so no one said anything bad gossip.

Arnott just stuck behind the man not too far away.

At first, she thought that this store should have some kind of cellar setting, so that it would be convenient for men to do bad things, but she walked around and found that the geographical environment here did not allow this, and the sound insulation here was not good.

If there was anything really wrong with this musical instrument store owner, then his first place of doing bad things should not be in his shop.

After walking like this for about 10 minutes, the girl witnessed the man pulling a suitcase into a villa, which can be seen to be a very popular standard, and such ones usually have their own basements.

She followed the man into the house - the high walls were not a problem for her who knew a little bit of martial arts, as long as she was careful not to be seen by the man - it was great that she didn't have to pick the lock or anything.

After entering the house, she discovered that there is a different world here.

As a single man, Nierid was not sloppy, on the contrary, his house was tidy and clean, but what surprised her was not this, but the fish all over the villa.

The huge fish tank occupies the not too big living room, there are countless fish swaying in the blue water, and the green aquatic plants loom their swimming figures, and the man passes through the gap between the fish tanks, Going straight past the living room, you can see the kitchen. He let go of the box. Probably because of the struggle inside, the box that was supposed to be placed on it shook twice, and suddenly fell to the ground with a heavy bang. Muffled.

But the man didn't even look at it, he just went into the kitchen on his own, and when he came out, there was an extra bundle of knives in his hand.

Holding the knife in his left hand and pulling the cart with his right, he walked towards the basement without looking back, but when he stood at the entrance, he seemed to suddenly remember something, and he stopped suddenly , Arnott, who was frightened, subconsciously stuffed herself behind the wine cabinet, looking at the outside situation through the narrow gap.

The man scoops up a fish.

It was only at this time that she noticed the biggest difference between the fish in his house and the outside—they were too big and strange, each one was at least as big as a child, no wonder the fish tank here was so exaggeratedly large, If it is really small, it is estimated that these fish will have difficulty turning around.

The fishing net used by the man is also very large. He fished one out with some difficulty, and the weight pulled the fishing rod to twists and turns. There is no contact with the ground.

When the big fish got out of the water, it couldn't help struggling with its tail. The net was bumped and jumped, which made people worry that it might break a big hole in the next second.

But it was obviously nothing to worry about.

Dragging the fish, he turned around again and walked towards the destination just now. The girl waited for a while until his figure completely disappeared in the entrance, and she tentatively poked her head out from her hiding place.

In fact, until now she was a bit puzzled why she would make such a reckless move to "stalk the suspect she believed and come alone to rescue Lorelai".

Normally, she would have chosen to report the crime and hand over this troublesome matter to the police.

She wasn't worried about Lorelai.

It's not that she doesn't value this friend, it's just that she doesn't understand what worrying is. She only knows that Lorelei's death will be very troublesome, but such trouble is not worth her life.

But she still chose to follow.

why?

She couldn't tell the reason, but she always had a vague intuition that as long as she followed Nierid, she would encounter something that would make her feel [interesting]. Her intuition was always accurate, even a few times Saved her life, so this time, as usual, she followed unconditionally.

Carefully moving near the entrance, Arnott opened a gap and looked down. The spiral staircase blocked her view, but when she looked far away, she could see the man with his back to her. Busy about something, there seemed to be a cluster of black shadows around her, but she couldn't see clearly from too far away, only the knives placed on the shelf were illuminated by the light, illuminating his figure.

While the man's attention was not here, Arnott went downstairs carefully. The basement was full of bookcase-like shelves filled with bottles and jars. Through the glass window, one could see the floating objects in the bottles The organs, sometimes a pair of beautiful eyes, sometimes spread out fingers, the water has soaked them white, and it is almost impossible to see the blood color when they are still on the human body.

But the most undeniably the scales and mincemeat.

The former are obviously fish scales, and they are small and cute in a silver bottle, while the latter, recalling the limbs she has never seen along the way, Arnott reckons that they should be the flesh and blood of the legs.

And it was with their help that she successfully hid herself and got closer to the man who was doing the experiment little by little.

When she got closer, she could see what the lump was—it was Lorelai.

Lorelei was stripped naked and tied to a stool with thick hemp rope, unable to move.

The girl's grown-up figure is not very good, but at least the front and back can be distinguished, but it is probably because the rope is wrapped too tightly, and her chest has been drawn into deep and shallow arcs—that is because the rope was used forcibly. Leaving out the career line.

She seemed to be in a coma, with light blood stains on her forehead, and the fish was struggling under her feet, as if it had predicted its own fate.

She certainly guessed right.

Sure enough, Nierid had something wrong with Lorelei—but what was his purpose?

"The most perfect work in the world is about to be born in my hands." While thinking, she suddenly heard a man's voice.

The tone was hoarse and low, revealing madness.

Because she was hiding on a side, she couldn't see the man's face, but the angle on the side allowed her to see the man's movements.

She held a sharp long knife in her hand, the blade had a sharp arc, but if it was used to cut people, it was obvious that the scalpel on the table was more convenient and professional.

Arnott's doubts were explained in the next second.

Because the blade was not aimed at Lorelai at all, but at the fish.

The rough tugging just now made its scales fall a little muddy, and the man touched its tail with some distress until the little dust on it had been wiped off, but at the same time, the knife in his hand was mercilessly attacking it. It poked down on its head.

Does he like this fish?But when he struck at the head, he acted fiercely without hesitation.Does he hate it?But the way he soothed his tail was clearly gentle like treating a lover.

At that moment, a terrible guess suddenly flashed in the girl's heart.

Mermaid Mermaid, the upper body is a human, the lower body is a fish tail.

But how can there be such a magical creature as a mermaid in this world—unless it is...

Man-made.
