Fiancee is Miss Mermaid

On the way back to the hotel.

"Did Mr. Pinggu really commit suicide?" The person I met at noon died tragically in the afternoon, and Lixiang still hadn't recovered from it.

Xia Youjie: "No, he was killed by the curse spirit."

"Besides the big-headed curse spirit in the orphanage, there are other curse spirits?" Li Xiang was surprised.

"The mermaid fairy that those villagers talk about is probably the curse spirit that killed Pinggu Chun, but why Pinggu Jun was killed, what is the relationship between the so-called mermaid religion and that mermaid fairy, these things are still unclear." Sorting through the doubts encountered so far in my head, I said to the little mermaid, "It seems that more details will not be known until I participate in the mermaid festival tomorrow night."

Not long after I returned to the hotel, but when I opened the door, there was a little girl dressed as a waiter in the room that was supposed to be empty.

"I don't remember calling room service before I left." Xia Youjie looked serious.

"This... This is the rule of the hotel. After the guests leave, they must come to the room to clean it in time. I am really sorry for not notifying you in time." The girl suddenly bowed at ninety degrees.

Instinctively understood that the truth was not so, but the person in front of him was not threatening, just an ordinary person, Xia Youjie did not make things difficult for her, but said meaningfully: "So it is so."

"Yes... yes." The girl's eyes were red, as if she had just cried.

"Have you finished cleaning the room?" Xia Youjie asked.

"Cleaning is over, guests, please rest assured, I'll leave right away, so I won't disturb you anymore." The girl hurriedly left, for fear that Xia Youjie would ask about other matters.

After closing the door, Lixiang said wonderingly: "The room is so clean, do you still need to clean it? Their boss's requirements are really strict."

Xia Youjie didn't figure out the purpose of the waitress sneaking into the room, so he just followed Xiaoyu and said, "It's really strict."

Lixiang resolutely refused to sleep in the same bed with the black cat, even in the form of a small fish. The reason given was that men and women could not get close.

Xia Youjie emptied the fruit tray in the room, put several layers of paper towels on it to make a mattress for the little mermaid, took off the lampshade from the lamp to make a bed sheet, and unpacked the pillow case and folded it to make a quilt.

The black-skinned cat, Mao Mao, feels like a child who makes beds for Barbie dolls.

The fruit plate is a petal-shaped glass tray. The little mermaid likes it very much. She rolls on the newly made small bed and keeps feeling: "Mr. Xia You is so skillful! This bed is so beautiful, it looks like a princess sleeps."

Seeing Lixiang rolling in the fruit bowl, the black-skinned cat poked her waist, "Little mermaid princess, it's time to wash up."

Li Xiang obediently crawled into Xia Youjie's palm, "Mr. Xia You, we are in a hotel now, you can actually turn me back to my original size."

"It's fine, but I won't be able to sleep on your crystal princess bed when I grow up." Xia Youjie teased her.

The little mermaid was more interested in the crystal princess bed than returning to its original size, and said, "Forget it, it's fine now."

Xia Youjie put hot water in a bathtub, put Lixiang into a small pink basin filled with warm water, and then put the small basin into the bathtub to let it float on the water.

"I seem to be on a boat!" Lixiang's eyes were full of "fun" and "like".

The black-skinned cat stretched out its paws and pushed the small basin, and the small basin continued to slide on the water surface for a certain distance.

"The boat is moving!" Lixiang shouted excitedly, "It's more like being on a boat!"

Seeing that she was so happy, the black-skinned cat, Maomao, pushed the small basin several times in a row, and stood up after she had had enough fun.

Ouch, my legs are a little numb from squatting.

Seeing that Xia Youjie was leaving, the little mermaid leaned against the basin, "Mr. Xia You, where are you going?"

"I'll go out first so that Lixiang can take a bath in the small basin." After finishing speaking, the black-skinned cat and cat squeezed some shampoo on the little mermaid's head, and was about to close the shower curtain, "I'm outside, the door is open, you Call me by my name if you need anything."

"Okay." The little mermaid nodded seriously after listening to the explanation.

When the black cat closed the shower curtain and was about to leave, the voice of the little mermaid came from behind the shower curtain: "Mr. Xia You!"

"what happened?"

"It's nothing, I'll try to see if you can hear me." The little mermaid said anxiously.

"Don't worry, although I don't have six eyes like Wu, and can detect the surrounding situation in a wide range, but I am also a super magician, and I won't be able to hear your voice at such a short distance." Hei In order to reassure her, Pi Mao Mao said a lot of words.

The little mermaid said weakly: "Well, I'm just afraid that you will abandon me and go away."

"How is it possible? That way Wujo will beat me to death." Maybe it has something to do with her childhood experience. The little mermaid needs others to give her a sense of security. Maybe this is why she likes to cling to Wujo Wutiao when she first arrived at Wujo's house.

Being strong will always give people an irreplaceable sense of security.

Not long after, the black-skinned cat heard the voice of the little mermaid calling. He came to the bathroom, opened the shower curtain, and found that the little fish that was supposed to be in the basin fell into the bathtub at this moment, and was wagging its tail Tried to turn it back into the small pot, but never succeeded.

"Mr. Xia You, help me quickly, the edge of the small basin is so slippery, I can't get on it." Hey hey hey hey.

The black-skinned cat held her tail and sent it up, and the little mermaid successfully went back inside.

"The bathtub is so big. I was in the basin and couldn't help but want to jump into it for a swim, but I couldn't climb up after swimming." The little mermaid explained.

Xia Youjie brought out the hairtail fish in a pot, "It's understandable, it's the nature of small fish to like swimming."

"Mr. Xia You, don't leave yet." Lixiang called to stop the black-skinned cat who was about to leave the bathroom.

"Did something fall?"

"No, in fact, when I just took a shower, I heard a strange sound behind the mirror," the little mermaid said mysteriously, "it seems like someone is breathing."

"Puffing? Why didn't I hear it?" the black-skinned cat expressed doubts.

"My ears are sharp and my hearing is very good. If you don't believe me, go to the mirror and listen again." The little mermaid continued to persuade.

Although he didn't understand the necessary connection between sharp ears and good hearing, the black-skinned cat did what Lixiang said. He took Xiaoyu to the mirror and put his ears on it to listen.

Originally, she had a playful mentality, but she didn't want to really hear the panting sound, which was very faint, and it was her ability that the little mermaid could hear it from such a long distance.

"Did you hear that?" The little mermaid looked at him, "I didn't lie to you, did I?"

"Yeah." Xia Youjie put the small basin on the sink, supported the mirror with both hands, lifted the mirror up with a little force, and said in surprise: "I thought it was fixed on the wall, but I didn't expect it to be hung on the wall." above."

The black-skinned cat raised its paw and tapped on the wall behind the mirror, and it was hollow as expected.

"Mr. Xia You, we are going to-!" The little mermaid was about to ask what to do, when the black-skinned cat pierced the wall with a punch.

"Loss... loses money!" the little mermaid said in horror.

The black-skinned cat patted Xiaoyu's head, "I can still afford to pay for this, I have to go in and see what's going on, should I take you back to the bedroom first?"

Lixiang shook her head: "No, I'm not afraid."

It's more scary to be alone in the bedroom.

Xia Youjie fished Li Xiang out of the basin, let her sit on his shoulders, and then entered the compartment through the opened entrance.

Behind the mirror is not a real wall, but a wooden board.And behind the pierced wooden board was an empty compartment, inside it was pitch-black, with a mutilated mermaid lying in the corner.

It's a male mermaid.

The left half of his face was already festered with pus, and the entire left eyeball was completely protruding, as if it would fall off immediately.There were quite a few pustules growing on the tail, which gave off an unbearable stench. It was like a large petri dish for bacteria.

These wounds on his body caused him unbearable pain, and he kept making painful gasps.

It was the same panting sound Lixiang heard outside.

Lixiang covered her eyes and dared not continue to look.

"Are you a member of the Mermaid Cult?" The light shining through the entrance made the inside brighter. The sick mermaid had no intention of escaping, or his current physical condition could not support his idea of ​​escaping.

There is no desire to survive on the festered face: "I have become like this, destroy it if you want, remember to do it quickly, and don't let me die too painfully."

"You're mistaken, I'm not a member of the Mermaid Sect." Xia Youjie knelt down in front of him, "I'm just a tourist visiting this village."

"People outside the village?" A mocking smile flashed across the mermaid's face, "Isn't it for the mermaid festival tomorrow night?"

Seeing his reaction, Xia Youjie knew that there must be something tricky in the so-called mermaid festival.

"Don't blame me for not reminding you, go home quickly, don't stay in the mermaid village, many people will definitely die in the mermaid festival tomorrow night." The sick mermaid started coughing after speaking, his voice was like an old bellows, The sense of ruin that one is about to shut down.

"Are you born as a mermaid?" Lixiang's voice sounded in the dimly lit cubicle.

The sick mermaid was shocked: "Who is talking?"

"It's me." Lixiang amplified her voice, drawing the mermaid's attention.

Xia Youjie took a shower before, so his hair was loose.After Lixiang sat on his shoulders, she pulled a few locks of hair to cover herself. In addition, one of the mermaid's eyes was broken, and her vision was blocked. It was normal not to notice Lixiang.

After seeing the little fish on Xia Youjie's shoulder clearly, the sick mermaid finally had some other expressions on his face, which was originally full of suicidal intentions.

Lixiang felt that the expression on his face could be interpreted as "unbelievable".

"You—are you a qualified product?" The mermaid's voice was rustling, as if it would cry in the next second, "Did they succeed? But why are you so small?"

"What's qualified or not? I was born looking like this."

"It looks like this after birth? The experiment they did with the unborn fetus was successful?" The communication between the sick mermaid and the little fish was not on the same channel.

Lixiang had no choice but to turn to Xia Youjie for help: "I don't understand what he said."

Xia Youjie was able to match the few words he mentioned with the news he heard earlier.

experiment.unborn fetus.

Contacting the curse spirit I met in the orphanage and the information mentioned by Jun Hiratani, a plan related to the cultivation of mermaids slowly unfolded in front of my eyes.

"Mr. Xia You, do you want to treat him first?" Lixiang asked again. This sick mermaid looks so painful, and he will not be happy for long without treatment.

The black-skinned cat made a booing gesture to her, and then negotiated terms with the sick mermaid: "If we can cure you, you have to tell me everything you know about the Mermaid Cult. ,How about it?"

Lixiang: It's the same routine again!

The mermaid who was still staring at Li Xiang heard Xia Youjie say this, and sneered: "It's not like you can't see my current physical condition, do you think I will listen to your words?"

Xia Youjie sighed: "Please clarify the order, okay? I said I will cure you first, and then you tell us about the Mermaid Cult. Don't get it wrong."

The mermaid didn't speak any more, he bowed his head and pondered for a while.

Lixiang was afraid that his shaky eyeballs would fall to the ground because of the movement of bowing his head.

After a while, he finally raised his head: "Okay."
