In fact, between two people, as long as they find the right topic, they can still chat happily.

For example, talk to people with kids about their kids, talk to people with pets about their pets, and couples talk about their romantic partners.

The two people who were not very familiar with each other were able to chat happily after opening the topic.

In the end, because Boyce still had something to do, he reluctantly offered to say goodbye after looking down at the time.

"See you later." The person opposite waved.

After Boyce said goodbye to him, he took Garcia's hand and led him to go forward, but Garcia stopped.

Boyce looked at him with some doubts, but Garcia let go of his hand and turned to stop the colleague who Boyce wanted to leave.

"What's the matter?" He had seen Hester at Louis's place before, and knew that when his partner was around, these mermaids were actually just paper tigers and would not hurt anyone.

Garcia looked at him, flicking his blue tail slightly.

The mermaid looked at the human in front of her seriously: "You have good eyesight."

what?

Both Boyce and the other person were a little strange because of Garcia's sudden words, and they didn't understand what he meant.

But Garcia only said this sentence, then turned around and walked in the direction of Boyce, took his hand again, and interlocked his fingers.

It wasn't until the two walked a little further forward that Boyce glanced at Garcia and saw the red color on his ears, and realized something belatedly.

When meeting Boyce's colleagues, he said to Boyce: "Is he your boyfriend?" "You seem to be a good match."

And Garcia's "You are very discerning." In response to the two sentences he said before.

Boyce's footsteps stopped, and the hand that was holding the other party was slightly wet, and the red that had just faded from the ears climbed up again.

……

Boyce went to help destroy the materials today, and all the research materials of the institute on mermaids were left here.

Boyce looked at the materials that had been piled up in a room, and there was a hint of shock in his eyes. Ivey patted the ashes on his hands: "This is all the materials."

"Everything about the mermaid is here."

This is the painstaking effort accumulated by the entire institute for more than 100 years. Boyce looked at these with complicated emotions.However, the action of destroying the data was unambiguous, probably because he fully accepted Garcia's reasons, Boyce also seemed to have a feeling of love for the mermaid.

He felt that he could probably understand Louis's effort to solve the research institute and take away the mermaid.

He also hopes to do something to cover up the existence of the mermaid.

Ivey and Boyce continued to destroy the materials while talking. Garcia was now next to Boyce and handed him the materials at hand.

Ivy watched Garcia's movements, looked at Boyce when the mermaid turned around, and winked at him mockingly.

Boyce met a lot of people along the way, and he was no longer shy because of other people's teasing. He smiled back very calmly, and then looked at Garcia's back and yelled.

"Garcia."

"What do you want me to do?" Garcia asked, turning around and looking at him.

Boyce shook his head, looked at Garcia and couldn't help showing a smile: "I just wanted to call you."

After spending a few days sorting out the materials in the institute, Boyce and the others were also preparing to leave here.

They have already done everything they can. Perhaps in a few decades, other people will not be able to resist the temptation and expose the existence of the mermaid, but that will be decades away.

After Ivy packed his luggage, he went to Boyce's dormitory to find him. When he entered the door, he felt that the mermaid inside seemed to be unfriendly to himself who entered Boyce's room rashly.

He raised his eyes and looked at the man and the mermaid on the opposite side. Garcia was standing beside Boyce, holding him possessively.

And Beyce is probably used to Garcia like this, and he hasn't felt anything unusual yet, and although Garcia is not very willing to see other people appear in the "Beyce's territory" he knows, but he also Know that this is normal human communication.

So restraining his irritability, he curled his tail around Boyce's feet.

"Come in." Boyce invited him.

Ivy lowered his head, remembering the virtue of the black mermaid in the boss's house, looked back at the marks left by the door panel on the ground, then stepped back a few steps, and stopped at the door.

"I'll be staying soon." Leaning against the door, he noticed that the mermaid showed some satisfaction because of his actions.

"I came to see you today to ask how your packing is going." Ivy said, subconsciously glanced inside, and Boyce's luggage was almost packed.

"In a few days, we will leave here." He said, looking at Boyce, "What are your plans next?"

"I'm going to go back first, and then go with Garcia." Boyce glanced sideways at the mermaid next to him. They had already discussed it before. Let's deal with the matter, and then go to the beach to find Garcia.

Going back this time is also saying goodbye to some friends on land. After all, we will not see many days in the future.

At the same time, Boyce is also planning to officially entrust the cat to his friend. After all, he may stay in the sea with Garcia most of the time in the future and cannot take care of the cat.

When Boyce mentioned this, he clearly felt that Garcia was very happy about it, and even showed a little complacency in his eyes.

After Boyce asked him, he realized that Garcia did not know when he regarded the cat as his competitor. Hearing that Boyce said that he would give the cat away, he felt that he had successfully surpassed the status of the cat, so he was a little proud .

……

It was a sunny day when Boyce and the others left the institute.

They left during the day, and the merman had been released back into the ocean by them the night before.

Boyce stood on the deck of the ship, looking down at the sea. At this time, the ship had been sailing for several hours, and the small island where the research was located was far behind.

When Boyce lost his mind, some black shadows suddenly appeared under the sea. Boyce subconsciously looked there, and the water surface was suddenly broken, exposing the upper body of the mermaid.

"Garcia..." Boyce looked at the mermaid walking side by side with surprise in his eyes. Considering that there were people on the boat who didn't know the existence of the mermaid, he only called his name in a low voice.

The mermaid obviously also heard Boyce's voice. Boyce looked at the mermaid in the sea, and he looked a little different from the one in the research institute.

Boyce looked at him, inexplicably feeling relieved.

Garcia followed them until the day they docked without being noticed by others. At night, this mermaid would sneak into bed while no one noticed him, and ring Boyce's phone at night. door.

Boyce was a little helpless about Garcia's behavior, but he could only open the door to let him in, and even went to Ivy to help erase the traces of Garcia's presence.

This continued until Boyce came ashore, after which Garcia could no longer follow and could only stay in the ocean.

Because he had been with Garcia all the time, even during the time at sea, Garcia would appear at night, and Boyce felt a little bit sad when he thought of being separated from him.

……

Before entering the Institute, Boyce bought a house in a small town, which is not very prosperous compared to the outside, but Boyce has always liked the atmosphere there.

The middle of the town is crossed by a river and divided into two halves. There is a bridge connecting the two banks. Not far away is a lake.

Three days after landing, Boyce returned to town.

Because no one lived there for a long time, there was a thick layer of dust in the house. As soon as Boyce opened the door, he was choked by the dust that hit his face and kept coughing.

Because this small town is not very big, many people have heard the news just after Boyce came back. After he cleaned the house, some familiar neighbors brought some ingredients and other odds and ends and knocked on the door. his door.

"Boyce is back?" Boyce opened the door, and saw an old woman standing outside holding a few eggs.

When Boyce saw someone, the aunt responded with a smile, and then handed him the eggs in her hand: "I haven't been back for a long time, there must be something missing, these are the eggs laid by my chicken, I will share some with you."

Boyce thanked her for her kindness, and then enthusiastic neighbors knocked on the door one after another. They all remembered that Boyce, who had lived here for a while, brought a lot of things with him. With the enthusiasm of the town residents, the things that Si originally expected to buy were actually scraped together.

On the second day after finishing repairs, Boyce bought gifts in return and went to each family to thank them. At this time, it was inevitable to chat with everyone.

As they talked, the older elders began to ask the young people about their relationship.

"Boyce, you are not young this year, do you have a date?"

Boyce remembered the mermaid who was still waiting for him, and nodded without denying, "Yes."

"Why don't you take it home and have a look?"

"It's a little inconvenient." Boyce said with a smile. Even if the most conspicuous big tail was covered, Garcia's face could still be seen to be not human at a glance.

"Does she look good? What kind of girl is she?" A mother-in-law asked curiously.

"Not a girl," Boyce said, "but she's pretty."

"Ah, it's not a girl." The old lady was stunned for a moment, and then said, "If it's not a girl, you should take it home."

Boyce responded with a smile, and said a few more words, when suddenly someone called his name.

Boyce turned his head and looked at the friend who gave the cat to his care. He also seemed very happy to see Boyce back.

The old woman glanced at him, then waved to Boyce: "You young people, go and play together."

After saying goodbye to the old woman, Boyce walked towards his friend.

"I heard that you were back just after I came back last night." The friend looked at him with a smile, "so I came to see you as soon as I was free today."

"Are you planning to settle here?" The friend looked at him curiously.

Boyce shook his head: "I plan to live here for a few days, then sell the house and move away."

My friend was stunned by this answer: "You want to move? Where are you going next?"

"Walking around." Boyce replied vaguely.

"Then... what about the cat?"

"Would you like to keep her?" Boyce had already made this decision before he came back. He knew that his friend had always liked the cat he entrusted to take care of before he left.

"Of course." He nodded without thinking, but because he hadn't digested the fact that Boyce was going to sell the house and leave, there was still a bit of shock on his face.

"Then... shall we go to my house to see the cat now?" He hesitated, and asked Boyce.

Boyce nodded.

The two soon arrived at their friend's residence. As soon as they entered the door, the white long-haired cat greeted them and rubbed against their friend's trousers back and forth.

After a while, she seemed to have just noticed Boyce next to her. She squatted down and looked up at him for a while, then found something familiar from the human being in front of her, and rubbed against him while yelling "meow". rubbed.

But compared with friends, it is still a little less close.

The friend picked up the cat and handed it to Boyce. Seeing the cat getting closer to him, he touched the tip of his nose and explained, "Maybe it's because you haven't been back for a long time, so she's not familiar with you..."

Boyce was very relieved, after all, he couldn't take the cat away, and he was relieved to see her getting closer to friends.

……

Boyce lived here for a few days and posted the sale of the house.

Unlike the atmosphere of the research institute, the life in the small town was leisurely and comfortable. Boyce even felt a little regretful that he couldn't bring Garcia with him.

Although the news of the sale of the house was announced, it would not be possible to sell it quickly.

Although Boyce also enjoys life here, but thinking of Garcia who is still waiting for him, Boyce is a little anxious.

He wanted to go back to see Garcia earlier.

While waiting for the news, rumors of a "water monster" suddenly spread in the town.

The first time Boyce heard about it was when someone mentioned it when he was out one day, but Boyce didn't take it seriously and didn't take it to heart.

The first rumors came from the older people in the town, and the young people in the town were as unconvinced as Boyce.

"If you believe in science, how can there be a water monster!" The young man retorted.

Boyce did not expect that after only a few days, the young man also changed his mind and believed in the existence of water monsters.

Boyce heard the people coming and going discussing the water monster. He was a little confused, so he randomly pulled a younger person and asked him, "What are you talking about about the water monster?"

"It's in the river in our town! There are water monsters appearing there!" The young man was different from the older people. He was a little excited when he mentioned the water monster, and his tone was full of eagerness to find the water monster.

"Didn't you still say you should believe in science a few days ago?" Boyce asked curiously.

"That was before." Another person came over, "The water monster is real!"

"We also saw it a few days ago!"

"What does it look like?" Boyce asked curiously.

"We didn't see it clearly either." The person who said he saw the water monster scratched his head in embarrassment. "I only saw a shadow that day, and it was just under the surface of the water. I didn't see what it looked like."

A middle-aged man who heard them talking next to him also interjected: "A few days ago I said there was a water monster, but you didn't believe it, you have seen it now."

"The water monster is obviously in the river." The young man couldn't help retorting.

The middle-aged man said: "It's obviously in the lake!"

"I went to play in Akers that night, and when I passed the bridge, I saw a dark shadow in the river."

The young man couldn't help stretching out his hand to show the length: "At least it has such a long tail, and the shadow on the upper body is a bit strange, completely different from the fish head."

"We saw it in the lake before." The middle-aged man retorted him, "The one is very big, it should be two or three meters long, and its tail is thicker than a person's waist..."

Boyce was at the side, listening to the argument between the two sides, and didn't take what they said seriously. He couldn't help but smile, probably a big fish in the river, which was misunderstood by people passing by at night.

One night a few days later, Boyce left the town to do business because of a temporary business. The town station was across the river. When Boyce came back, it was already dark. When he approached the bridge connecting the two sides, Boyce suddenly remembered the recent rumors about the water monster.

I don't know if it's because he just thought of the water monster, Boyce listened to the flow of the river, and couldn't help but think of the water monster that the residents of the town talked about.

Boyce still believed in science, but the young people in the town who had vowed to never believe in the existence of water monsters changed their words a few days later, which made Boyce a little concerned about this point.

He was getting closer and closer to the bridge. He didn't know if it was an illusion. There seemed to be something stirring the river from the river.

Boyce paused, and looked towards the river through the dim streetlights. A vortex was left on the surface of the water, which turned a few times with the current, and then disappeared into the river.

He looked at the river a few meters away, and took a breath. The bridge had just been rebuilt a few years ago. Even if there was a water monster, it would be impossible for him to jump directly from the river.

After making mental preparations, Boyce stepped onto the bridge, and the only thing he could hear was his own footsteps, except for the sound of the river flowing below.

At the same time, there seemed to be some giant creature swimming under the bridge. Boyce subconsciously glanced at the river, and a huge black shadow followed behind his own shadow cast on the river by the street lamp.

It is no different from what I heard from several town residents a few days ago. The black shadow is bigger than a person's body. The back looks like a thick fish tail, but the front is not the front half of a fish. .

Boyce looked there, and took a few steps forward.

As the shadow on the water moved forward, the black shadow that was a little behind the shadow also followed.

Boyce raised his heart, looked at the underwater creatures vigilantly, and subconsciously clenched the things in his hands.

Probably because Boyce stayed on the bridge without moving, the shadow under the water moved, and Boyce, who was staring at him, subconsciously raised the object in his hand, ready to smash it into the water.

Before the thing in his hand was thrown out, Boyce saw something from the distorted shadow under the water, and put down his raised hand in disbelief: "Garcia..."

There was a movement on the surface of the water, and Boyce's familiar face broke through the water and was exposed.

"Why are you here..." Boyce was shocked, and Garcia had promised him well before leaving, saying that he would stay in the sea and wait for Boyce to find him after finishing his work.

Garcia glanced at him, and then began to explain why he was here.

After separating from Boyce before, Garcia missed him within a few days, so he followed Boyce's breath, crossed large and small rivers, and finally arrived at this small town a few days ago.

On the first night here, someone accidentally saw an underwater shadow, so there were rumors about the water monster.

The water monsters in the river and the lake are all him.

Because it was inconvenient to go ashore, Garcia also knew that this place was no better than being on a boat, so he stayed in the river peacefully and did not try to sneak into the town.

He could only follow Boyce's shadow when he passed by.

"Why didn't you just show up?" Boyce asked him.

If he hadn't called out Garcia's name, it is estimated that he would have been following underwater until Boyce left.

Garcia felt a little guilty: "You said before that I would wait for you in the sea..."

So Garcia just wanted to follow and didn't want to be discovered by Boyce.

He looked at the humans on the shore: "I miss you so much, so I came to you."

Boyce was silent for a moment, then said, "I miss you too."
