Although the cucumber-durian-flavored lollipop made Lu Xing realize for a moment what it means to be able to see stars even if you are blind, but because Lin Xiaodong's usual acting skills are too realistic, he still firmly believes that this is just the little mermaid's strange taste. Yu ordinary people, not Lin Xiaodong deliberately punishing himself.

Lu Xing calmly took out the lollipop from his mouth, and said to Lin Xiaodong, "Gu Xi promised you to come see me, how long did he give you?"

Lin Xiaodong: "Two 10 minutes."

"Then," the young man said slowly, "do you know why he asked you to come to me?"

Lin Xiaodong shook his head.

But the reason is actually easy to guess. Just by looking at the way Gu Xi goes out early and returns late every day to check the information, he must be trying to dig out some ways to relieve his drowsiness symptoms from Lu Xing, a mermaid.

But Lin Xiaodong didn't think Lu Xing would tell him so easily.

"Although it is slow, the female worm in Gu Xi's body is still growing," Lu Xing said, "You can see that he is normal now, but because he has been with you for a long time, he has fallen into a temporary incubation period due to the influence of the mermaid singing .”

"Then what happens if it explodes?"

"What will happen?" The corners of Lu Xing's lips curved playfully, "It doesn't matter much."

Before the little mermaid breathed a sigh of relief, he said slowly and methodically: "It's just that the world will be in chaos."

Lin Xiaodong: "..."

"If it weren't for the fact that I can't bully the disabled," he sat in front of Lu Xing expressionlessly, and patted his tail anxiously, "I want to slap him with my big tail right now."

System: "Fan it. Anyway, the good guy got the card, I support it."

After the 10008th attempt to contact the headquarters was still unsuccessful, the system finally became Buddhist.

Anyway, there is no supervision and no salary. He is just a weak and helpless part-time worker who just wants to marry a wife. Why should he be so conscientious in demanding that the host be perfect?

Lu Xing didn't know that he was about to be tortured with his tail on his face, so he was still chattering, "I heard that my elder sister has become the speaker, Gu Xi must have put a lot of effort behind it, right? He should I also feel that some things cannot be controlled by humans, just like the mermaid planet that was destroyed at the beginning..."

"Wait a minute," the little mermaid interrupted him suddenly, "what did you just say?"

Lu Xing was stunned for a moment, but he reacted almost instantly.

He frowned and asked, "Didn't Gu Xi tell you...?"

"Tell me what?" A cold hand grabbed his wrist, and the little mermaid's voice seemed to be trembling, "You're lying to me again, aren't you?"

The youth's silence answered him.

This was the first time that Lu Xing wished that he was lying to Lin Xiaodong.

But in the end, he just sighed softly: "I'm sorry, but I'm telling the truth."

"You are lying!"

Lin Xiaodong stood up abruptly from his seat, and ran out without looking back.

Gu Xi has never regretted that he agreed to Lu Xing's request.

Although Lu Xing did keep his promise in the end and told him a possible and possibly the only solution to Lin Xiaodong's drowsiness problem, the consequences... Gu Xi would never want to see anyway.

Under his repeated instructions, no one brought up the subject of Mermaid in front of Lin Xiaodong during this time.

And after they came back from the Rose Nebula, because Lin Xiaodong didn't mention it, the original plan to return to the Mermaid Planet was put on hold indefinitely.

Although he knew in his heart that this was impossible, Gu Xi still sincerely hoped that if possible, the little mermaid could live happily ever after.

Even if it has been kept in the dark, it is better than suffering after knowing the truth.

But after all his calculations, he still missed the variable Lu Xing.

"Xiaodong, I..."

Gu Xi stood in front of the closed bedroom door, raising and lowering the hand that was about to knock the door several times.

Since returning from Lu Xing's place that day, Lin Xiaodong has locked himself in the room for a day and a night.

System: "How long do you think Gu Xi can endure?"

Lin Xiaodong pricked up his ears, heard the movement at the door, and silently hid the bag of potato chips that he had eaten most of, under the bed.

He said firmly: "Up to 3 minutes."

But in fact, not long after Lin Xiaodong finished speaking, Gu Xi had already opened the door of the bedroom with the spare key.

As soon as he opened the door, what he saw was the pale little mermaid curled up quietly in the corner, crying silently.

Gu Xi's heart twitched instantly.

He walked to Lin Xiaodong's side in silence, and just as he put his hands on the other's shoulders, he heard the little mermaid hugging her knees say in a crying voice, "You, you go..."

"I'm not leaving." Gu Xi whispered.

He stretched out his hand and hugged the little mermaid forcefully into his arms, ignoring the punches and kicks from the person in his arms—but to Gu Xi, this level of strength was basically equivalent to scratching an itch—and he wiped it off with a somewhat rough motion. With the tears on Lin Xiaodong's face, he lowered his head and kissed his lips hard.

Lin Xiaodong froze for a moment.

It's over, he thought, wouldn't it taste like potato chips?

Due to his guilty conscience, he struggled desperately, but Gu Xi misunderstood that he wanted to resist, so the restraint in his hands became stronger.

"If you want to hate," the man didn't let go until he kissed the man in his arms until he was out of breath. Said the voice, "Then hate me."

"If it weren't for being with me, you wouldn't have experienced these things."

He was supposed to be a carefree little mermaid living by the Jialan Lake.

But because of himself, he left his hometown, resolutely followed him when the situation was not yet clear, and selflessly helped his compatriots, regardless of the harm humans had caused them.

But when peace finally came, the little mermaid lost her only home in this world forever.

On the one hand, Gu Xi felt pain and guilt for the various injuries he had brought to Lin Xiaodong, but on the other hand, he couldn't control his inner dark/selfish desire/desire—since Lin Xiaodong is now homeless, let him be left alone. By my side, forever and ever.

He didn't have to think about anything, and he didn't have to worry about anything.

Just look at yourself the same as before.

Gu Xi has not yet realized that his thoughts have been trapped in a dead end of paranoia. The scary thing about the mother worm is that it can subtly affect people's emotions and thinking. to such subtle changes.

Except for mermaids.

Lin Xiaodong could clearly feel that the state of the man in front of him was wrong, but he couldn't tell exactly what was wrong.

He didn't care about pretending to cry, and wiped away tears with the back of his hand, raised his head, and said to Gu Xi with red eyes, "I don't hate you."

"I was just thinking, why do people grow up?" The little mermaid said softly, as if asking, or talking to herself, "Growing up is not fun at all. When I was young, I had companions and Jialan The lake, and the home, are not a lonely fish, but when I grow up, I will only have you."

Gu Xi's lips moved.

He asked in a faint voice: "You don't hate me?"

The little mermaid shook her head.

He sucked his nose hard and stretched out a little finger: "Come and pull the hook, don't be as angry as before."

"You must be well, because," he pursed his lips, and repeated again, "I only have you."

Gu Xi stared at him for a long time.

"...Don't agree?"

The man lowered his eyes: "Okay, I promise you."

"—Hanging on the pull hook, not allowed to change for 100 years."

"Ding, good person card +1."

"Mission completed, initial rating %[email protected]..., reward points ¥@%..."

"Host 68711 applied to leave this world, trying to connect to the headquarters...&¥d?%..."

"What are you still trying to get in touch with?" Lin Xiaodong couldn't help interrupting when he heard the buzzing voice, "I can't get in touch anyway, so don't get in touch."

But just when the system was about to give up, there was just a "beep", as if Ren Du's second channel was suddenly opened up, and the originally indistinct voice became clear again in an instant:

"The headquarters has received the host 68711 application."

"In the statistics..."

"Mission completed, initial rating: A, 1500 reward points."

"Total reporting reward points: 2500 points. It has been issued, please check it in the system wallet."

"Host 68711 applied to leave this world...

"Approval of the application. The countdown has begun, please prepare the host."

Lin Xiaodong: "Uh, your headquarters has finally connected to the Internet?"

The system is also quite strange: "Yes, but it stands to reason that the disconnection has been disconnected for so long, at least an explanation should be given."

One person is all confused, and finally unanimously decided to give up thinking.

Lin Xiaodong was very happy: "Tong, I think we have been partners for so long, and our brain circuits have become more and more synchronized."

system:"…………"

I don't know why, but it's not happy to hear that, thank you.

"You want to save him, so far, there is only one way."

"The mermaid ancestors have lived by the Jialan Lake for generations. If they leave there, they will only become weaker and their mental power will gradually wither, without exception."

"The research institute under the royal family has analyzed that the essence of female parasites is to plunder the spiritual power from other parasites. But these spiritual powers are not necessarily used by it, and can also be redistributed to any parasite. It's just that once the brain worm in a parasite's body acquires more mental power than the mother worm, it will cause the mother worm to degenerate and the host to die—you know what I mean?"

Gu Xi stared at the pale young man who rarely showed a serious expression in front of him, as if he was judging whether he was lying or not.

But Lu Xing remained calm from beginning to end.

In this matter, there is no need for him to lie to Gu Xi again.

The man didn't seem to care about what would happen to him at all, but said coldly: "Everyone in the universe knows that mermaids are the nemesis of brain worms. Even if you didn't lie to me, this method was not feasible from the beginning."

"Of course it is possible." Lu Xing said softly.

He crossed his fingers and seemed to sigh: "It's just that there is a prerequisite."

"……what?"

"From today onwards, don't let him sing anymore." Lu Xing said, "The female worm cannot be completely wiped out. Once its parasitic host dies, there will be brain worms in the population that will immediately evolve into new female worms .If the race of mermaids has not become extinct, there may still be hope of suppressing them, but now... it can only be said that this country is doomed. However, maybe there is still a glimmer of hope for humans living in remote star fields?"

He shook his head and smiled.

But there was a bit of coldness and self-deprecation in the voice: "This is probably the mermaid's revenge on humans."
