After eating bread in the car, Xia Youjie started the engine to leave the mermaid village.

Unexpectedly, there was an accident on the way.

Not long after leaving the Mermaid Village, a man came straight to the car. His decisive action seemed to be a comparison between his own head and the front of the car.

Fortunately, the black-skinned cat reacted quickly and made a sharp turn to avoid the rushing people, but the car also fell into the grass beside the road.

Xia Youjie immediately checked the little mermaid on the co-pilot. Fortunately, she was not injured. She just patted her chest in shock, "I was scared to death. I thought I would hit a tree trunk."

The man who wanted to seek death through a car accident found that he was unsuccessful, so he rammed into a big tree by the side of the road instead.

The first time he bumped himself into stares, the second time he was just making preparations before being stopped by Xia Youjie.

Ping Guchun turned his head and met the tall boy with Danfeng eyes, he saw the other party smiled and said: "Sir, why are you so overwhelmed?"

"I——I don't want to live anymore." Ping Guchun lowered his head, his eyes were blank, and his energy was sluggish, "It's all gone, everything is gone."

"What's gone?" Xia Youjie asked.

Probably because there was no place to confide the pain in my heart for too long, facing Xia Youjie's casual question, Ping Guchun's words poured out like a floodgate.

Pinggu Jun was originally an ordinary villager in Mermaid Village.I grew up normally and ran a small business normally.

In such an ordinary life, the only extraordinary thing is to marry a beautiful wife and give birth to a healthy son.

I thought that this ordinary but happy life would be maintained until death, but something happened.

His son disappeared accidentally while playing at the beach. He tried many ways afterwards, and even mobilized the whole village to search for him, but there was no news.The disappearance of the son caused a great blow to the wife. The wife was in a trance state for a long time afterwards, often wandering by the sea, and was almost drowned in water once.

Pinggu Jun was very worried about his wife's health, and took time and effort to take care of her body. As time passed, her spirit gradually improved, and she was pregnant a month ago.

The two cherish this hard-won fetus very much, especially the wife, who seems to have transferred their love for their son to the fetus in the womb. However, just a few days ago, the wife was forcibly taken away.Pinggu Jun's life is also covered with a haze that cannot be dispelled.

"Abducted by force? Do you know who did it?" Xia Youjie didn't interrupt Ping Guchun's narration, and asked after he finished speaking.

Pinggu Jun: "He is the leader of the Mermaid Cult."

Today is the second time I heard about this leader from others. Xia Youjie, who originally thought that the Mermaid Cult was just a special church, couldn't help but pay attention, "Why did they take your wife away?"

Jun Pinggu smiled wryly, "Because she is pregnant."

Faced with such a reason, Xia Youjie couldn't help but frowned, "Does the leader of the Mermaid Cult specialize in catching pregnant women?"

"Yes."

"What did he catch the pregnant woman for?"

"How can a commoner like me know about the leader's affairs?" Ping Guchun was distracted, "Since the date of the mermaid festival was confirmed, people in the church have been searching around the village for pregnant women, especially those who have just been pregnant. Woman. I tried every means to avoid the eyes and ears of these people, and I traded out the business in hand for cash, and prepared to take her away. Who knows... Who knew that I was discovered by those people the night before departure... Woohoo, my Yukino..."

The little mermaid saw that Pinggu Jun was not very old, but after experiencing these things, he was tortured out of shape, too old for his age.

She wanted to comfort Jun Pinggu, but chose to remain silent because it was inconvenient to speak out.

Fortunately, the black-skinned cat helped her say what she wanted to say: "Mr. Pinggu, it is still too early to say that your wife is in danger. Don't be so pessimistic. Try to find a way to get in touch with your wife first."

Ping Guchun shook his head: "It's impossible. The others never came back after being taken away. I also tried to find a relationship and gave money, but those guys who eat people and don't spit out their bones didn't think about it after receiving the money." Give me back Xue Nai."

The little mermaid whispered, "How can you go so far!"

"Didn't you also say that it was other people who failed to get in touch after being taken away? What if your wife happened to be one of the survivors? You are holding such a mentality of committing suicide now, because you want your wife to come back after she returns. Facing a cold corpse?" The black-skinned cat, seeing that routine advice could not shake Pingguchun's idea of ​​committing suicide, had no choice but to sway.

Jun Pinggu reacted to his words, he lowered his head and pondered for a while, "Yes, I can't give up hope yet, it's only been a month since Xue Nao was taken away, even if she's thinking about the fetus in her womb, there's still time left before the due date For a long time, there must be something I can do during this time..."

Saying that, Pinggu Jun stood up staggeringly, as if he had made some kind of determination, and staggered away.

"Is it okay to let Mr. Pinggu go away like this?" The little mermaid on the shoulder asked the black-skinned cat, not at ease about Pinggu Jun's current state.

"That's his own business." Xia Youjie's answer seemed a little indifferent, "However, this mermaid sect whose behavior is so unbelievable is indeed worth investigating."

Xia Youjie called Ye Mo Zhengdao and explained the accident he encountered during the mission. After getting permission, he decided to investigate the Mermaid Cult, especially the reason why they caught pregnant women everywhere.

Because she was sitting on the shoulder of the black-skinned cat, she could hear the content of his call very clearly. When he hung up the phone, Li Xiang said: "It seems that we can't go back for the time being, and we have to stay in the mermaid village for a while." A few days."

"That's it," Xia Youjie put the phone back in his pocket, "Does Lixiang want to go back?"

"That's not true. Ah Wu is still abroad, and there is nothing to look forward to when he returns to the high school." When the cat was mentioned, the little mermaid wanted to faint again.

Xia Youjie: "Don't be downcast, if Wu comes back and sees you like this, he will definitely be hit hard."

Unexpectedly, the little mermaid retorted him: "When Ah Wu comes back, I won't be downcast like this, I will be super happy!"

"You really like Wu Wu," the black-skinned cat couldn't help but touch her slippery tail with its paw, "You clingy little fish."

Lixiang was not convinced: "Not everyone is clingy, I just like clinging to Ah Wu."

Xia Youjie drove Lixiang back to the same place, found the matchmaker again and asked him to help arrange accommodation.

It is different to have the help of special contacts. Even in such a small village that is not prosperous, you can stay in a hotel comparable to a star hotel.

It is not an ordinary Japanese-style hotel, and the decoration style is more European-style.The mirror in the bathroom is also edged with sparkling diamonds.

"Like a big mirror that a princess would look in!"

There are no tatami mats, only super soft beds.

"Wow! What a huge bed! As big as a sports field!"

Lixiang hasn't stopped marveling since entering the door.

Xia Youjie put the little mermaid on the soft bed, let her touch here and there, and wriggled on the bed dragging her tail.The size of this bed is no different from a playground for Xiao Xiaoyu nowadays.

"Lixiang, are you tired? Do you want to stay in the hotel and sleep?" Xia Youjie lay on the bed and asked Xiaoyu who was having fun.

The little mermaid: "Where's Mr. Xia You? Don't you take a break?"

"I'm not tired. I have to go around the village later to see if I can gather more information about the Mermaid Cult." Xia Youjie rested his face on his left hand and looked at the little fish in front of him. "You can stay here Rest in the hotel, I will bring you something delicious when I come back later."

"I'm a little scared to stay in the hotel alone." Xiaoyu, who was still having fun on the bed, changed his joy when he heard that he was going to be left alone. Instead, he began to look at the surrounding environment vigilantly, "I think Go with Mr. Xia You."

Xia Youjie spread his hands in front of Li Xiang: "Come on, I'll take you with me."

Not only is it a sticky mermaid, but also a cowardly fish.

The mermaid village at night is more lively than expected. It should be in preparation for the mermaid festival tomorrow night, and stalls selling snacks have begun to be set up on both sides of the street.There are a lot of tourists taking pictures along the way, and you can tell that they are not from the Mermaid Village just by looking at their clothes.

Xia Youjie took Lixiang for a walk and watched it all the way. It was lively, but he seldom heard anything about the Mermaid Cult, especially about the mysterious leader.Even if they deliberately inquired, they couldn't find any details. It seemed that except for Jun Pinggu, no one else had heard of the deeds of the leader arresting pregnant women everywhere.

It seems that we will have to wait until the Mermaid Festival tomorrow night to find out the updated news.

"It's very close to the sea, we can stop by to have a look." After going to the beach, we can go back to the hotel to rest.

Lixiang asked the black-skinned cat, "Are there any small shells by the sea?"

"There will definitely be." The black-skinned cat replied with certainty.

"Will there be any stranded fish?"

"Well... that's not necessarily true."

"Is the water blue?"

"Some sea areas are very pure blue, and some sea areas are dark black."

"It turned out to be like this! I thought it was the same as the ones on TV, pure blue."

Xia Youjie wondered: "Isn't your home facing the sea? How come your question sounds like you have never seen the sea before."

"Originally, I thought I would see the sea once, but it failed." It was just an excuse for Kazuya to trick her to go out and cut off her tail, "I never saw the sea again."

"That's it, then tonight is Lixiang's first time seeing the sea." Xia Youjie's voice melted into the sea breeze blowing in front of her.

"Mr. Xia You, is the beach by the sea golden?" Li Xiang continued to ask.

The black-skinned cat who has become an encyclopedia: "The color of the beach is so bright, it's just ordinary sand."

The sea at night was dark and black, and the salty sea breeze was blowing head-on, the little mermaid couldn't open her eyes.

The black-skinned cat teased her: "You are a mermaid, you should have a natural sense of belonging to the sea. How can you not keep your eyes open because of the strong sea breeze?"

The little mermaid sneezed and said shiveringly, "Mr. Xia You, I'm a little cold."

This was a question that the black-skinned cat hadn't expected. He rummaged through his pockets and managed to find a clean handkerchief from inside. "Put the handkerchief on like clothes, and we'll go back."

"Okay." Lixiang who couldn't see the small shell was a little disappointed, but if she continued to stay at the beach, she might catch a cold because of the cold.

In contrast, physical health is more important.

The two of them hadn't walked a few steps with the sea behind their backs, when they heard an exclamation from the sea: "Someone died!"

With this shout, the villagers and tourists who were originally scattered by the sea suddenly gathered at the source of the sound, forming a human wall in a short time.

The deceased's face was blue, his eyes were wide open, and he was lying on the beach wet without any hair.

Xia Youjie, who was among the onlookers, recognized at a glance that this person was Ping Guchun, who had committed suicide not long ago.

It was less than half a day since they parted, and they did not expect to meet again under such circumstances.

There were small murmurs in the crowd.

"Isn't this Hiratani Jun?"

"Is this suicide? Didn't you still cry about that incident a while ago?"

"It's crazy to be dissatisfied with being able to contribute to the leader, and want to expose the matter to outsiders."

Xia Youjie saw that his body was covered with a layer of filth, which was not caused by simple suicide or accident, but should be killed by a curse spirit.

However, it is not easy to keep the whole body when encountering the curse spirit, and there are no particularly bloody wounds on the body.

"Look!" The crowd that had gathered was about to disperse, but the coroner's shout attracted those who were about to leave again, "There is a rune of the Great Mermaid on his tongue!"

"What what? Let me see!"

"I've only seen the runes of the Great Mermaid in books."

"Oh, don't squeeze, can you?"

Everyone pushed and squeezed each other, Xia Youjie relied on his height, and soon saw what the coroner said the runes looked like——

It's a simple black swirl.

That's where the worst traces of filth are.

"Ping Gujun was punished for doing something that angered the mermaid!" Someone exclaimed loudly.

This exclamation spread like a virus among the people, and after a while, the crowd of onlookers immediately bowed down to Pinggu Jun's body.

Seeing such a scene, Xia Youjie felt an incomprehensible sense of absurdity in his heart, and he took a few steps back to leave this vicious circle.

This village is really weird.
