Chapter 67 The Tears of the Mermaid (7)

In short, Tsukimi Sakura tasted what is said to be the favorite food of mermaids, and also learned more about mermaids.

According to people's legends, they either like to sing or love treasures.

People only care about their beauty and singing, but they don't care how the mermaids live.

Merfolk like seaweed and coral, and will eat some fish.

As highly intelligent legendary creatures, mermaids also have a unique way of communicating.

For example, the two mermaids she met on the street not long ago.

Tsukimi Sakura watched them swimming without saying a word, but the expression on their faces became more and more excited.

What's this?Brain wave communication method?

Hmm... It should be said that the brain waves of mermaids are all at the same frequency, so there is such a way of communication, right?

It's like humans can't understand fish talking.

"Sakura, do you have any idea how to leave?"

Officer Matsuda suddenly spoke up.

"Honestly, even though I'm a 'professional', there's nothing too good about it right now."

Tsukimi Sakura shrugged:

"This is the first time I've met a mermaid."

"...Can you tell me something about 'Yayoi' and the mysterious person?"

"Okay."

She poured out her experience of finding Yayoi.

Matsuda Jinpei pondered for a moment: "It sounds like they should be the key."

"Well, but I have a headache now, and I can't use my brain for the time being."

Tsukimi Sakura rubbed her temples with her hand.

Ever since she came here, something seemed to come out of her mind, which made her have a splitting headache.

In front of Atalanti, Tsukimi Sakura's full willpower did not show her slump.

Although she would like to believe that the mermaids are kind, she must not let go of the precautions she should have.

"Then take a good rest and don't think about anything."

Officer Matsuda pushed Tsukimi Sakura into the palace prepared by Atalanti:

"Let me, as an adult, play a little role."

After the police officer Matsuda who pushed her to rest on the bed without any explanation left, Tsukimi Sakura closed her eyes, and the strange feeling that had been suppressed running around in her mind finally ushered in an explosion.

After holding on to cast the enchantment, she allowed herself to sink into the sea of ​​consciousness.

【Sakura, I know you must have a lot to ask now】

The old man's clear face seemed to be within reach, Tsukimi Sakura subconsciously stretched out her hand, but he avoided it sideways:

[Why, want to see if grandpa is real or fake? 】

She couldn't hold it back, and burst out laughing with a 'puchi': "Yeah."

【This is just a video, but it was put in your necklace by Grandpa when he was alive】

Grandpa scratched his head:

[Look at me, I like to chatter when I am older...

To make a long story short, Grandpa accidentally saved the Mermaid King Perhifik when he was young.

That old guy didn't know what embarrassment was, so he insisted on giving this gem to me, saying that it would be useful for his family in the future.

How can I only use it once?

Perhifik said that the prophets of their mermaid race had predicted it long ago,

What do you say 'When the cherry blossoms on the land bloom in the ocean, the mermaids will also return to their hometown'

As soon as I heard it, aren't you Sakura?

Grandpa immediately made it into a necklace for you to wear.

how about it?

Are you using it now?

Grandpa, am I very prescient? 】

"Grandpa will praise himself, old and unrefined."

Tsukimi Sakura had long guessed that the necklace was a 'key', but it was really a surprise to see Grandpa.

【I'm afraid you won't wear it properly,

Just randomly put a few yin and yang techniques in there for you to learn...

Look at me, I digressed again.

Seriously, Sakura, if you meet a mermaid princess, help me if you can. 】

When Grandpa said this, he was silent for a long time before continuing:

【They... are also fighting for their lives with the sky】

Tsukimi Sakura was surprised by Grandpa's words.

Could it be... shouldn't mermaids exist in the current world?

[Okay, grandpa is leaving, don't keep thinking about going to hell to find me, be careful that the assistant officer leaves you as a jailer. 】

After a sharp sting,

Grandpa's figure disappeared without a trace before her eyes.

The sun cannot be seen at the bottom of the sea, but it does not mean that the time cannot be calculated.

Half of the crystal hourglass placed in the palace has flowed.

I don't know if you can see the sunrise from the bottom of the sea?

This idea just popped up in her mind, Tsukimi Sakura heard Atalanti's voice:

"Is the guest resting well? Can I come in?"

"Please come in."

She got down from the huge clam shell bed, and suddenly had the illusion that she was a conch girl.

Tsukimi Sakura always felt that Atalanti was different from the people on land.

She didn't understand the reason until she saw Atalanti's happy smiling face.

Because Atalanti's emotions are very real, unlike people on land who put on masks for various reasons.

Atalanti's smile was just laughing, and crying was just crying, and there was no pretense in every word or deed.

"Forgot to tell you,"

Atalanti, who had no people around her, seemed to have turned back into the little mermaid girl Yayoi spoke of.

His eyes are bent, and the beautiful scales at the end of the eyes are one of the biggest characteristics of mermaids.

"We mermaids calculate time differently from humans. It's still night on land, but it's the night of the next day in your land time."

"I slept all day and all night?!"

How can you sleep for so long? !

"So is your friend, it's normal. People on land sleep like this to adjust their bodies to the conditions under the sea.

When Yayoi first came here, she slept for three whole days. "

"I see."

Only then did Tsukimi Sakura feel relieved.

"Okay—guests, don't frown all the time. You've been worried since you came to Atlantis. Is the scenery here not beautiful enough?"

Atalanti motioned for her to follow him:

"The night of the ocean is a gift given to us by the God of the Sea. Guests and I should go and see it? Believe it can help me soothe the brows of your brows."

"……it is good."

Tsukimi Sakura was a little ashamed to admit that she was 'tucked' by Atalanti.

If the mermaid characters could be read by humans, Atalanti would definitely be a romantic poet.

"Ataranti, don't call me 'guest' anymore, you can call me 'Sakura'."

"This name...does it mean Sakura?"

Atalanti stretched out his hand and drew a pattern of cherry blossoms in the sea water.

"Yes."

"Great--"

Atalante took her hand, wagging his tail happily:

"You are the key to returning us to our hometown, as Priest Bolfie said!"

Priest of Porphy...

Is it the 'prophet of the mermaid' that grandpa said?

Atalanti and she walked to the palace where Officer Matsuda was resting,

Tsukimi Sakura saw that Officer Matsuda had already been waiting there.

"Come on - I'll take you to see the miracle that the mermaids are most proud of -"

Atalanti made a strange whistle, and a giant manta ray followed the sound and stopped quietly in front of the three of them.

"Fear not, riding a manta ray on the ocean floor is like riding a car on land."

He was the first to swim to the back of the manta ray.

Tsukimi Sakura and Matsuda Jinhei looked at each other, and stood on the back of the manta ray, arm in arm.

As two weak, pitiful and helpless human beings at the bottom of the sea, there is nothing wrong with them having to watch and help each other.

The mermaid is worthy of being the son of the ocean, the darling of nature.

When Tsukimi Sakura saw the gorgeous and dreamy underwater scenery, this was the only thought in her mind.

The three of them stood on the manta ray and walked in the sea. The sea in front of them was so soft and kind, like a mother's embrace, making people nostalgic.

All kinds of strange sea creatures swam above and beside them from time to time, such as a transparent glass octopus, black and red Styx jellyfish, and a spectacular storm of fish schools covering half of the sea...

Standing on a manta ray overlooking the deep blue sea,

The silvery plankton flow in the deep sea caves to form the galaxy on the bottom of the sea...

Such a spectacle may be hard to see again in a lifetime.

The trio even came across a whale!

A killer whale swam close to Atalanti with its dorsal fin.

Atalanti touched the fin of the killer whale Rena:

"There are less than a hundred killer whales left in the group of Rena."

"The human whaling ship took away its people. Rena has never seen his parents since he was born."

Atalanti looked at Tsukimi Sakura steadfastly:

"One day, the crimes of mankind will be exposed to the sun, right?"

"……Will do."

Tsukimi Sakura remembered Yayoi's camera: "It will definitely."

This is an adult killer whale, about seven or eight meters long by visual inspection.

She tries to talk to it:

[Hello, can you understand me? 】

"咕咱咱" [Understand! 】

Finding its cry so cute, Tsukimi Sakura couldn't help but reach out and touch its dorsal fin.

"Hey!"

[Rena is a big kid, human, you can't touch Rena's fins! 】

【All right……】

"How is it, are you envious?"

Atalanti's voice pulled her away from the conversation with 'Bumblebee', Tsukimi Sakura saw him proudly flicking his tail.

"It's simply a creation of the gods."

Tsukimi Sakura heard Officer Matsuda flatteringly praised her.

"Don't the guests like the view here?"

Atalanti pouted in distress: "Yayoi said he liked it very much."

Tsukimi Sakura wanted to tell Atalanti that Yayoi could not represent human beings.

However, she also looked forward to what kind of answer Officer Matsuda would give.

"Human beings are amazing too, aren't they?"

Matsuda Jinhei met her eyes:

"Humans envy flying birds, so they have airplanes;

Human beings envy swimming fish, so there are submarines;

Humans envy the starry sky, so they have spaceships—"

"Yeah, yeah, human beings really make fish love and hate~"

Atalanti echoed in a strange way.

Tsukimi Sakura was sandwiched between the two, wondering why the smell of gunpowder could still be smelled from the bottom of the sea.

"Cough—both humans and mermaids are awesome, Atalanti, what's that 'miracle' you were talking about earlier? I can't wait to see it!"

woohoo-

In order for Officer Matsuda to live in peace with Atalanti, she had to become a Duan Shui master!

"Ah! That's right—"

Atalanti flicked the fish's tail:

"Come with me, let's go to the sea!"

While Atalanti was leaving, Tsukimi Sakura quietly turned on the 'in-team voice':

"Hey, why did Officer Matsuda say that just now? It will hurt Atalanti's heart..."

"Sakura, don't you think that mermaids rely too much on these 'foreign objects'?"

He had heard her speak of the brutal hunting of the mermaids by humans.

"Blindly relying on the so-called 'gift' from the God of the Sea, even when facing human beings, instead of taking up arms to resist but giving in again and again, will the peace with human beings gained in this way really be long-lasting?"

Matsuda Jinpei doesn't feel that human morality can completely restrain greed, even though he himself is human.

As a policeman, the crimes he saw only convinced him that the mermaids' tolerance only fueled human ambition.

"Wow... um... a unique insight."

Tsukimi Sakura also felt that the mermaid clan's past behavior was too gentle.

Obviously in some legends they are such ferocious ogre monsters, but in reality, the whole ethnic group is so innocent, they are always tricked into boarding by humans and ashore by humans.

Shall I gently advise Atalanti to be smarter?

"Sakura—what are you talking about? Come here—"

Atalanti's urging voice came from the sea,

The manta ray under the feet of Tsukimi Sakura and Matsuda Jinpei suddenly rushed to the surface of the sea.

With a "crash", the manta ray came out of the water, and the long-lost air rushed into her lungs, and she finally returned to the surface of the sea.

"Well—tonight's starry sky is also beautiful!"

Atalanti happily swung her fish tail, making small splashes on the sea surface.

His eyes were blue, like the sea, blue like the sea.

Those eyes are full of stars, reflecting the deep purple starry sky over the Pacific Ocean.

"Actually, the most beautiful scenery is in your eyes, Atalanti."

Tsukimi Sakura stared into his eyes for a long time, then spoke in a strange way.

"hiss--"

"Really--"

Officer Matsuda and Atalanti had completely different reactions.

Atalanti hugged Tsukimi Sakura's arm affectionately and rubbed:

"Sure enough, the rhetoric of human beings is very pleasant."

For a moment, Yue Jianying couldn't tell whether she was scolding her or praising her.

"Sakura, who taught you such nasty words? That Furuya guy?"

Police Officer Matsuda had a gritty expression on his face: "You actually led a child—"

"How disgusting!"

She akimbo angrily:

"This is my truest thought! Doesn't Officer Matsuda think so?!"

"correct."

He had one hand in his pocket, as if looking for a cigarette.

Finding that his pocket was empty, he put his hands behind his head and looked up at the sky:

"If it's just this level, it can't be called 'the most beautiful scenery', can it?"

Tsukimi Sakura has good reason to be skeptical,

The most beautiful view in the eyes of Officer Matsuda is the bomb model after it has been cracked.

How could he bear to turn a blind eye to such a beautiful Atalanti!

The beauty of Atalanti's light blue and near-white curly hair, eyes the same color as the sea, and fish tail is not at the same starting line as that of human beings!

After praising the mermaid's true emotions in her heart, she was caught off guard by Atalanti's tears.

"Sorry...Sakura..."

Atalanti suddenly covered her face and sobbed:

"Actually...tomorrow is the new moon... I, I lied to you... woo woo woo..."

"Don't cry, Atalanti, let's make things clear—"

At such a critical moment, you actually think of what Zero Sauce told her, 'The class monitor is most afraid of Natalie's tears'.

In fact, she is also most afraid of girls crying!

I don't understand why Atalanta burst into tears all of a sudden!

Also, is the legend of 'Shark Weeping Bead' actually true? !

Atalanti's tears really turned into pearls! ! !
