After tidying up the house, he was going to make dinner. During this period, Klein was worried about Mephides, so he went upstairs to look at it several times.

After taking the medicine, Mephides frowned slightly, and the blond hair on her temples was sticking to her face with sweat.

When feeding the medicine just now, the clothes on her back were soaked with damp, so she must be very uncomfortable now.

Klein changed the wet towel on her head, and helped her wipe her forehead, cheeks, neck, and exposed hands. This is the limit.

He is always a man, and he can't help more.

But she can't just let Mephides sleep like this, after tonight, her foot is injured, what should she do when she takes a shower?

Klein stood beside the bed thinking about this for a long time, then turned around and closed the door to go out.

After a good night's sleep, Mephides felt that the burning heat in her body had eased a lot, and when she opened her eyes, a wet towel fell from her forehead.

She took a look at the towel and found that it was different from the one she saw when she was half awake.

——Klein came halfway.

Did he find anything?

Mephides sat up and checked her clothes, and found that everything was in good condition, without any trace of being tampered with.

The original starched shirt became wet and wrinkled, and it stuck tightly to the body, and the wet hair was all on the neck. The headache and dizziness disappeared, but now there is a hot flash and fatigue after dehydration all over the body, which is extremely uncomfortable. up.

Mephides leaned against the bed, and after about four or five minutes, she realized that the soles of her feet were not so painful.

Not only was there no pain, but there was also a trace of cool numbness. Looking down, the gauze tied to the foot had also been changed.

She didn't remember carefully looking at Klein's hands, but when the thought came to her, she easily imagined Klein's movements and demeanor when he bandaged his wound again.

One thing is very strange - Klein's body temperature is obviously very high. When she took medicine while half asleep and half awake, she leaned on Klein and felt that he was cool.

Is it because of a fever?

Her experience with humans was limited to the one with Klein seven years ago, and she heard that when humans had a fever, they would become weak both physically and mentally.

She should also be affected by these symptoms, so she felt that when Klein persuaded her to take the medicine, the resonance caused by Klein's hoarse voice was still trembling in her chest.

Klein's voice...

The transformation period and high fever made her lose her judgment on many things.

When he was in the underwater palace, the servants treated him equally well, but they were all far away, subconsciously cautious, bowing their heads, for fear of angering him and being punished or obliterated.

In fact, he is not a proud and violent mermaid, on the contrary, he doesn't care about these things.

But because of the suppression of the purebred blood, most of the same race feel oppressed when they get close to him, and naturally they dare not get close to him.

Parton spent the last metamorphosis period with him.

Rao was the housekeeper who took care of him since he was a child. When his bones were almost broken and reassembled, he could only guard the door and dare not approach him.

In his life, Jiu is powerful 90.00% of the time, and the metamorphosis period is only a very short period of time.

So he never felt that there was anything abnormal or wrong about Patton and the others' reactions. On the contrary, it was Klein who, with a mere fever, took close and careful care of him as a guardian, which made him feel... a bit unbearable.

Mephides, no, it should be said that it was Sweet, who lay on the bed in a daze for a long time, then suddenly raised her eyes to look at the tightly closed door.

There was the sound of footsteps, but it wasn't Klein.

The door was pushed open with a slam, and the smell of alcohol spread first. A red-haired woman with a ponytail, a men's riding suit, and a whip pinned to her waist stepped into the room. When she saw her, her eyes lit up, "You are Mephides? Klein didn't lie to me, you really are a little beauty!"

"Nata——" Klein's helpless voice came from behind, and he appeared from the door a few seconds later. Seeing that Mephides had woken up, he grabbed the whip on Nata's back and dragged her out of the door, " I said she was resting, did you wake her up?"

Nata grabbed the door frame to avenge herself: "I didn't wake it up, she woke up when I came in!"

"Why didn't you knock when you entered the house? What if someone is changing clothes?"

"What are we all afraid of as women? Besides, she can't speak. How could she tell me that I can go in when I knock on the door?"

Klein: "..."

Klein regretted calling Nata over.

He thought that Mephides would feel uncomfortable in that suit, and she couldn't take a bath, so he wanted to find a woman to help.

He could definitely hire a maid, but on the one hand, he didn't trust random people, and on the other hand, since he was looking for a maid for Mephides, she had to give her a nod.

After weighing it up, Klein thought of Nata, so he invited a boy who ran errands to the tavern at the port and called Nata over.

I don't know how the errand boy passed the word, but as soon as Nata entered the door, he said that he had hidden a woman upstairs.

Of course, the words of the distant cousin couldn't hide the truth from the crew members who had been together day and night for so many years.

Klein had no choice but to reveal Mephides's true identity, warning after warning, so that Nata did not rush upstairs immediately.

Unexpectedly, when he went to the kitchen to cook, Nata took the opportunity to sneak up and said frivolous words such as "beauty" in front of Mafides.

Klein regretted so much that he couldn't pull the whip out, so he just started.

Passing through Nata's armpit with both hands, locking her shoulders, half persuading and half dragging her out of the room.

"What?" Nata was dragged downstairs, adjusted her clothes, stepped on the ground with one foot, and said, "If you have a lover, forget about your sister."

"I've already said it's my sister, so stop talking nonsense." Klein said in a low voice.

But it was too late for him to remind, Nata's voice had already reached the room from the half-open door upstairs.

Mephides: "..."

Nata and the other female crew members on board are like grandpa, worrying about his family problems all day long.

Today when she drank wine, when she first saw a beautiful woman like Mephides, she said unrestrainedly: "How can you have a younger sister? She has no blood relationship with you, and she is an adult, and lives in your house, isn't it? Lover candidate?"

Klein: "..."

Klein glanced upstairs and found that the door was unlocked. He knew that he couldn't continue arguing, otherwise Nata would probably go further and further outrageous.

"It's not anyway, don't talk nonsense and cause me trouble."

When Nata was about to speak, Klein scolded him first, "Why did you go to the port to drink again? How much did you drink? It's dangerous for you to drink out so late by yourself, you know?"

"I..." Nata usually doesn't like other people to control her. She has to enjoy a free life after getting off the ship, and she doesn't allow anyone to ask her whereabouts. Only Klein dared to say a few words about her on the entire Pearl.

Klein provided three locations for the errand boy, but he didn't expect to find her at the port tavern at the first stop.

The situation turned in an instant. Nata, who was teasing Klein just now, curled her lips and said, "It's not me, there are other crew members."

"The rest of the crew are also men, so don't trust them so much when you're not on the Pearl."

There are express regulations on the ship, and everyone will not violate the regulations to do extra things for the voyage, so it is not necessarily the case after getting off the ship.

"..." Nata: "According to you, you are still a man. Is it dangerous for me to come to your house so late?"

When she mentioned it casually, Klein really started to think about it.

Although he has always regarded Nata as his older sister, and Nata has completely regarded him as a substitute for his dead brother, but as Nata said, there is no blood relationship between them, and they should really avoid——

Nata knew him so well, she could tell what he was thinking just by looking at his expression.

Unbearably raising his hands in surrender, he interrupted his thinking: "Okay, I understand, just pretend that I didn't say anything, I won't go drinking, and help your 'sister' change clothes and take a shower. ?”

The voices of the two siblings penetrated the room on the second floor along the crack of the door.

At first, Mephides just listened to their concerns over and over in a relaxed manner, but after hearing that, her heartstrings gradually tightened: change clothes?bath?
