[Comprehensive] I have a special case-solving skill

Tsukimi Sakura followed the long golden line and continued to jump through the space with spells, and finally arrived at the destination - Taiji Town, Wakayama County.

Through the bustling neighborhood, she came all the way to a bay.

And what was happening before her eyes made her fall into hell.

Thousands of dolphins are howling and screaming being hunted down by fishermen!

Humans trapped the sea elves in fishing nets, pierced their bodies with sharp spear guns, and dragged them onto the fishing boat!

Unwilling to abandon their companions, they anxiously surround their wounded companions, unable to escape the poisonous hands of humans!

Occasionally one or two escaped dolphins,

I can no longer jump over the fishing net as easily as I used to,

The wound on the back is bleeding profusely,

It no longer has the strength to jump over the fishing net, it just spits out blood-red bubbles,

bit by bit,

little by little...

sink to the bottom of the ocean.

She even saw several huge fishing boats besieging a whale!

The special physiological structure of the whale allows it to swim unimpeded in the deep sea, but at this moment it intensifies the pain of facing death!

Numerous harpoons pierced its body, and Tsukimi Sakura heard dull explosions,

The exploding harpoon ripped through the whale's guts and also ripped through its skin.

Blood was gurgling all over its body, and she heard the whale howling in agony—

The people on the boat kept piercing the explosive harpoon into the whale's body, and some people kept holding guns, beating the whale's skin to a bloody mess.

A fishing line thicker than a steel cable is tied to the whale's tail,

It struggled desperately, but it was still hung on the stern!

The biggest ship comes home laden with her 'spoils',

The whale was hung upside down,

Blood was shed in the tow of the fishing boat!

The screams of dolphins, the roar of whales and the cheers of humans are intertwined, forming a strange and bloody movement.

Tsukimi Sakura's eyes were bright red.

No, not so...

it's a dolphin,

it's a whale,

the creatures of these seas,

It is their blood that stains the bay red!

Trembling, she opened the location on the phone——

Wakayama, Taiji Town,

—Killing Bay

"These bastards—"

Tsukimi Sakura almost bit her lip,

When she was about to rush to the port, someone stopped her.

"Shh-don't be impulsive, they have guns and harpoons."

It was a blond young man with freckles on his fair face due to sun exposure, and compassionate and firm eyes in his dark blue eyes.

He wears a gray hoodie that almost blends in with the seaside shipping containers.

Tsukimi Sakura saw a mini camera hanging on his chest.

She lowered her head, and the gold thread passed by the handkerchief was connected with him.

"Yayoi?"

Her voice had become dry and hoarse and harsh at some point.

"you know me?"

He rounded his eyes with the same color as the sea in a little surprise.

"Don't talk about this, I'll take you out of here first."

He pulled her flexibly through the containers, successfully avoiding the returning fishermen.

"Okay—girl, tell me now, who are you?"

On the deserted shore, Yayoi looked at Tsukimi Sakura leisurely.

"Do you remember the promise you made when you were a child?"

"Atalanti called you here?! Ah! You have been on the shore for so long, is there any discomfort?"

Yayoi suddenly squatted down and touched her legs.

If it were someone else, Tsukimi Sakura would definitely think he had bad intentions.

But in Yayoi's eyes, apart from concern, she couldn't see any disrespect.

"Did you take me for a mermaid?"

"Uh... aren't you a mermaid?"

Yayoi blushed:

"sorry, I……"

"It's okay, I'm the onmyoji entrusted by Atalanti to find you. She wants to meet you."

Thinking of the techniques she was not yet proficient in, Tsukimi Sakura took out two tickets instead:

"This is the ticket to return to Shenshen Island, let's go back together.

Also, can you tell me why you are there on the way? "

------

"...That's it, a very special childhood, isn't it?"

Yayoi sitting next to him shrugged:

"After a fight with my mother, I went to Tokyo alone. I wanted to follow my father's legacy, so I started filming and documenting their killing of whales, dolphins and other marine life."

When Yayoi was a child, he was always excluded because of his appearance different from the locals. He had no friends and sat alone by the beach every day.

Tell the sea about your distress.

Until one day, he met a little girl.

The little girl would come to the shore every evening to play with him,

Though she always falls when she walks,

Although the adults say that she is a wild child abandoned by her parents after being ill, Yayoi still cherishes this friend very much.

[My name is Atalanti. 】

The little girl puts her hands on her chest very proudly:

【I am a child of the ocean, and the great sea god protects us. 】

Yayoi grew up gradually,

Atalanta was still the same little girl as before.

Yayoi, who noticed Atalanti's abnormality, didn't say anything.

Atalanti was his friend even if he was not like the others.

On the day Yayoi was 15 years old, a foreign visitor came to Kamikai Island.

He has red hair and looks like he can pull anything out of his eerie black robe.

Everyone went to see the wonderful performance of this stranger, even Yayoi's mother.

[Yayoi, do you want to come to my house to play? 】

Atalanti suddenly appeared outside Yayoi's window.

【OK. 】

Even though he had guessed it, he still couldn't believe it when he saw Atalanti's home.

In the sea water under the island of the gods, the underwater palace that is said to be buried with treasures is the home of Atalanti.

Atalanti gave him a candy in the shape of a water plant for him to eat, and pulled him to jump into the sea together.

After passing through an underwater vortex, the originally abandoned underwater palace suddenly became resplendent and magnificent.

Yayoi turned her head in surprise,

But he saw Atalanti shyly hiding the fishtail of her lower body behind the rock.

【Yayoi knows now,】

She hid behind the rock too shy to come out:

【Ataranti is a mermaid,

Will Yayoi be afraid of me?

Or will they take me? 】

[No matter who Atalanti is, he is my friend. 】

The boy firmly held the hand of the mermaid girl:

【Always will be. 】

Since then, Yayoi has a group of mermaid friends.

From Atalanti's mouth, Yayoi also knew the tragic fate of the mermaid tribe.

The mermaid's beauty and heavenly singing made the rich and powerful among human beings hunt and kill them wantonly.

Of course, all these evil deeds are carried out in secret.

To deal with fools, just create

"There is no mermaid, or the prototype of mermaid is other sea creatures"

The idea is enough to fool them.

Many of their clansmen were trafficked to these greedy humans to be raised as playthings, and died in cages with nostalgia for the sea.

No matter how gorgeous a cage humans build for them, it is still a cage.

In order to survive, the mermaid king and Atalanti's father decided to migrate with his tribe.

Hundreds of years ago, they brought their hometown to God Island.

They thought they could escape the pursuit of humans, but the kind-hearted mermaids couldn't bear to see other marine companions being killed by humans.

And the greedy human beings, in order to coax the mermaids to come to land, are also willing to play tricks to make them believe that they will no longer hunt mermaids and want to pursue peace.

So humans turned to hunting other creatures in the ocean.

【Hundreds of years ago, humans began to hunt whales, and in recent decades, they have hunted whales and dolphins on a large scale. 】

Yayoi heard Atalanti's choked up voice:

[Their cries echoed in the seven seas,

Their screams crossed the ocean, their blood stained the sky—]

【Father couldn't bear the thought of our compatriots being slaughtered like this. After handing over the affairs of the Mermaid Clan to the Consul, he tried to find a way to go to land and save the whales and dolphins. 】

Atalanti's fish tail trembled slightly:

[Later, I heard the news of my father's death.

He was discovered by humans to be different from ordinary people, and after being made into a specimen, he was locked in a dark laboratory. 】

[In order to protect the whales and dolphins, the news of the mermaid's reappearance spread among humans.

The mermaids are about to start wandering again. 】

"Actually, mermaid meat can't help humans live forever.

Mermaids have an end too, and I don't understand why humans are so obsessed with getting them. "

Yayoi looked indignant:

"They take advantage of the kindness of the mermaids to keep killing whales and dolphins to force the mermaids to show up. It's really despicable!"

"Not only threaten the mermaids with other sea compatriots, but also deceive the mermaids that they will never hunt mermaids again!"

"The mermaids were either caught or died in cages. They lost their lives without dignity like human playthings, and never returned to their hometown!"

Hearing this, Tsukimi Sakura had already burst into tears.

"Atalanta has become the mermaid princess, and she wants to leave with her people, right?"

She took the tissue from Yayoi and wiped her tears vigorously.

"Yes, what happened with Atalanti has strengthened my belief."

Yayoi caressed her camera lovingly.

"This camera has been modified by me to record long-time videos, and I want to expose their crimes to the world!

Father's will, Atalanti's wish... I will do it for them! "

"Then why didn't you contact Atalanti?"

After Tsukimi Sakura asked this sentence,

Yayoi's face was full of astonishment:

"I keep in touch with Atalanti every year?"

Tsukimi Sakura was also confused:

"If you contact her every year, why does she entrust me?"

After the plane landed, Yayoi said that she was going to see her mother, and Tsukimi Sakura took the time to go back to the room to find Kumingmao.

She always felt that it was hiding something.

Pushing open the door, Ren Gu was holding the Nine-Ming Cat by the back of the neck, looking furious.

"Master! You were cheated by this guy!"

Ren Gu threw away the Nine Lives Cat and rushed to her:

"It wants to use you against a guy who hides his head and shows his tail!"

"It's a stranger with red hair and black robe."

Tsukimi Sakura stared at Nine Lives Cat.

"Yes."

Nine Lives Cat sits on the ground:

"That foreigner imposed a ban on the sea area. I was seriously injured several times by him. I opened a gap in the barrier outside the palace before I could contact the trapped Atalanti."

I'm afraid its "serious injuries" all end in death.

Is that why you lost eight lives...

"You bastard! You're a cat demon now, leave here to contact that Yayoi! What are you trying to do by involving her?!"

"Why do you think I lost eight lives? That stranger is very powerful and killed me several times."

Finding that the smell of gunpowder between Jiumingmao and Tengu is getting stronger and stronger, Tsukimi Sakura hurriedly speaks out to stop it:

"Okay, okay, Ningu calm down, and the Nine-Life Cat is too.

What happened this time...although it was partially concealed, but I will definitely not sit idly by. "

The image of the black mist rising behind those greedy fishermen intertwined with the bright red sea of ​​blood kept shaking in front of her eyes.

Fishermen are just clowns in front of the stage.

Native people hardly eat whale and dolphin meat,

Those fishermen and whaling ships hunted and killed them under the pretext of "research and eating meat".

Had to figure out where these whales and dolphins ended up...
