Mermaid Feeding Rules

Boyce returned to his residence, and just as he took off his coat, the light in the room suddenly went dark.

Boyce put his coat aside, groped carefully in the dark, and soon touched the corner of the desk. He remembered that there was a flashlight on the desk.

The light from the flashlight illuminated the room, and Boyce then walked to the wall and pressed the light switch a few times.

The lights on the ceiling didn't turn on, and Boyce frowned, wondering whether the lights in his room were broken or the electricity was out.

But the latter should be less likely.

Boyce walked to the door and opened it while thinking about when he would ask logistics to help change the light bulb tomorrow.

It was dark outside the door, save for the light of Boyce's flashlight.

Power out...

However, the logistics of the institute's power system has been checked very frequently, and it is reasonable to say that there will be no sudden power outages.

Unless someone turned off the switch...

Area F.

Taking advantage of the darkness, the two sneaked into the breeding room of S-19. They turned on a light, and then opened the glass separating the mermaids from the breeding room.

One of them took out a black scale from his pocket, and subconsciously rubbed the scale with his index finger a few times. Remembering the above said that mermaids with scales will not hurt people, he calmed down a little, knocked on the glass, and he opened his mouth tentatively: "You Are you there?"

After saying this, he and his companion strained their ears to listen to the movement in the pool, and their bodies were facing forward vigilantly to prevent it from attacking suddenly.

There was a slight splashing sound in the pool, and the two of them clenched the weapons they brought in. Remembering their purpose, they asked nervously, "Is that you?"

A somewhat dry voice sounded in the breeding room, and the pronunciation was a bit weird: "I am here."

This voice didn't belong to any of them, and the two felt tense. For the first time, they knew that mermaids could speak human language.

The two subconsciously looked towards the surface of the water. The thin mermaid floated to the surface, with one hand resting on the edge of the lifting platform. Its eyes fell on the scale, and the other hand stretched out towards them: "Give me..."

One of them took a step forward and stuffed the scales into its hands. It took a look at the scales, then bent its hands, trying to jump onto the lifting platform.

The two people on the lifting platform looked at each other, held the weak mermaid's arm and pulled it up, then quickly retreated.

The mermaid who came ashore opened and closed her gills behind her ears, barely supporting her body.

"We are here to take you away." The man who spoke swallowed when he saw the mermaid looking at him, "We can leave the institute tonight, but you can't hurt anyone."

"You saw the scales too."

The mermaid didn't reply, so he could only bite the bullet and continue, following the instructions above, he must get its guarantee: "If you agree, we will take you away."

After speaking, he produced a pair of handcuffs, which should be enough to restrain the weakened S-19.

S-19 held out both hands, motioning for them to handcuff them.

The two breathed a sigh of relief, and they agreed: "Then hurry up."

Seeing that the mermaid was still very weak, the two of them could only carry it on their backs because of the urgent time.

They haven't put too many people in the research institute yet. They originally wanted to take away all the mermaids at once after sufficient preparations, but s-19 probably won't last that long, so they can only take it out first.

Because they had just talked to it, and the mermaid was not incapable of communicating, the two of them were slightly relieved.

Because of insufficient deployment, they can only climb out through the ventilation ducts. This is the best way they can find so far. The person in front couldn't help but say to the mermaid: "We need to hurry up, other people can't delay it." Too long."

He didn't expect to get a reply at first, but he didn't expect it to say: "Okay."

The person pulling the mermaid in front glanced at it subconsciously, and the mermaid actually smiled at him with a faint voice: "Thank you."

The two were taken aback, a little embarrassed: "You're welcome..." They looked at the mermaid's strange face compared to humans, and couldn't move their eyes for some reason.

Hearing this, the smile on the mermaid's face deepened, which was inexplicably weird, but the two people next to her didn't notice anything unusual.

……

A urging voice suddenly sounded in the earphones: "Where have you been?"

The two people who were in a daze suddenly came back to their senses. On the ground were the handcuffs that the mermaid broke free. There was only a dim red tail in sight, which disappeared after a flash.

The two looked at each other, as if they just looked at the mermaid's face in a daze, and then it ran away after recovering?

It only leaves two sentences.

"I won't hurt other people." The mermaid won't break her promise, but it didn't promise anything before.

But s-19 still made a concession: "I'm going to kill someone..."

……

The person at the other end heard the report that the mermaid had run away, and scolded a few idiots: "I told you to be careful not to be bewitched by it!"

But unexpectedly, the two people sent over were still led away by it without knowing it.

However, they had no choice but to hope that the mermaid was telling the truth.

……

The Institute lights up again.

Boyce turned off the flashlight, and the institute's alarm sounded: "Experiment s-19 has disappeared, and all departments should report any abnormalities in time!"

s-19?

Boyce thought of the mermaid he saw during the day, and its current situation didn't seem like it could escape alone. Compared with s-19, Boyce felt that s-37 was more likely to escape.

After the broadcast stopped, Boyce in the room seemed to hear the sound of a snake slithering. Boyce stopped what he was doing and looked up.

But at this moment the sound suddenly disappeared.

Is it an illusion?

Boyce sat at the desk, his eyelids began to twitch uncontrollably.

Before he completely lost consciousness, a malicious voice suddenly reached his ears.

"I really want...to kill you..."
