Die with the boss [Quick Transmigration]

When he looked at me, he looked at me that way, not caring about my flaws and inadequacies, he saw me as I really was.

He was happy to see me, every day, every time.

Now I have to save him or watch him die.

—— "The Shape of Water" (2017)

[Director Luo, do you really decide not to equip the system? 】

[No.It is better to have no companions without tacit understanding. 】

Luo Cheng was awakened by a continuous knock on the door.

He opened his eyes, rubbed his temples and sat up with a splitting headache.

I didn't pick the right time to travel this time, Yuan was suffering from a bad cold, with a stuffy nose, a sore throat and a low-grade fever, and he was groggy.

The people outside the door were still making noise: "Lin, Lin, are you awake! Come out, we found an incredible thing!"

Incredible?

Luo Cheng probably guessed what he was talking about, took a tissue and blew his nose, walked over to open the door.

"what happened?"

Standing outside the door was a 1.9-meter-high Western strong man with a big beard covering almost his entire face. He was as burly as a brown bear.His name is Jack, and he is Yuan Bo's colleague.

"Why is your cold still so bad?" Jack was taken aback by his abrasive paper-like voice, but his worry was soon replaced by excitement, "Lin, believe me, it must be you who missed this voyage. The biggest regret of my career!"

Luo Cheng smiled: "Is that an exaggeration?"

"Of course! God, this is definitely a 'miracle' you've never seen before!" Jack the brown bear grabbed his shoulders without hesitation. In his arms, he looked like a little chick hiding under the wings of an old hen.

Jack said excitedly: "That guy is too big, it's still parked outside, everyone went out to see it! Go away, you are the only one missing!"

Luo Cheng's identity this time is Lin Zhe, a Chinese scientist in country M, a doctor of biology and environmental science, and a member of the Arctic scientific research station in country M.

To be honest, when thinking of the word "biology" now, Luo Cheng has a headache and a sore throat.

Lin Zhe is 29 years old, a second-generation immigrant, born in a middle-class family. He has been on the fast track of life since he was a child, and he is on the road of learning and mastering. There are two months.

The base of the scientific research station is a solid two-story red building with a total area of ​​only about 500 square meters, which also includes laboratories, offices, reading lounges, dormitories, storage rooms, etc. Although the sparrow is small, it has all internal organs.

Due to the small space and high mobility of people, there are not many people living here. In addition to the cooks and cleaners, there are only [-] people in the entire scientific research station. Among them, only the deputy director Bei Qi and the researcher Lin Lin are engaged in biological research. Zhe.

At this time, everyone gathered in the open space in front of the building.

It is extremely daytime now, even at [-] o'clock in the evening, the sky is still bright and clear, with warm red clouds lying far away at the end of the horizon.

The temperature in summer in the Arctic region is also more than ten degrees below zero. Luo Cheng is wrapped up tightly, and when he goes out, he is still shivering from the cold wind like a knife.

The people are all gathered together, crowded and noisy, and everyone's face is glowing red with excitement.

As soon as Luo Cheng appeared, Becky's gray-blue eyes lit up like light bulbs.

"Lin!" He came over and grabbed Luo Cheng's hand, pulling him inside, "Come and see, see what this is, it's definitely a biological miracle!"

Luo Cheng sniffed his nose and squeezed through the crowd in a dizzy state.

Charlie, the station master, is announcing loudly: "This is definitely the ninth wonder of the world—no, it's unique, it's unprecedented, guys, we've made history!"

A group of very high-spirited scientists suddenly cheered and jumped up.

Surrounded by people in the middle is a huge irregular ice block more than three meters high.

The thickness of the ice cube was at least two meters, and through the translucent ice surface, one could see a faint black shadow embedded in the middle.

The black shadow showed a reclining posture. The upper body could clearly see a humanoid head and torso, but the lower body was in the shape of a fishtail.

The fragments of this world are "crazy".

A mermaid that has been sleeping under the ice for hundreds of years is the last mermaid in this world.

Mermaids are real species, and there are a large number of relevant records in both the East and the West in ancient times.It's just that mermaids have extremely strict requirements on living conditions. Due to human expansion and environmental pollution, they have long been extinct in many reincarnation worlds.

When Luo Cheng was still alive, he had seen the South Sea Merman.The female mermaid was captured by the people of the South China Sea and presented to the emperor. She had a beautiful appearance and a singing voice, but it was a pity that she died not long after.

Although "stupid" does not mean stupid, but the IQ of mermaids is not as good as that of humans, this fragment should not be as difficult to deal with as the first two fragments.

After experiencing a tragic victory in the first world, the second world was declared a failure before it even started. In addition, now that he has lost his system, Luo Cheng no longer dared to push himself further, and decided to honestly start with the less difficult fragments.

If he couldn't even handle a fish, he would really kill himself with his neck wiped.

Luo Cheng sneered in his heart: Si Chen, we meet again.

"This... what is this?"

Becky held his hand tightly, his voice trembling with excitement: "Why, don't you see it, still don't want to believe your eyes? Don't doubt, Lin, this is a real mermaid! God, I never I thought that this kind of creature actually exists in reality!"

Luocheng maintains Lin Zhe's always cautious and conservative personality: "It may also be an ancient dugong."

"Dugong?" Becky sneered at his guess, "Have you ever seen a dugong living in the Arctic Ocean?"

Of course Luo Cheng didn't refute anymore.

Jack said excitedly from the side: "We went to investigate the abnormal sea ice cycle in the south of Beaufort Bay this time, and found it in the middle of the floating sea ice! Ha, who would have thought how long it had been buried in the ice? If it wasn't for the melting sea ice, maybe no one would ever find it!"

Of course, except for Luo Cheng, no one thought that the creatures frozen in the ice were still alive.

After using special equipment to remove the excess part of the ice that could be cut off, the shadow of the mermaid became clearer in the ice, and even his general appearance could be seen.

The face is obscured by the arms and hair, but the fins on his elbows, the slender and powerful fish tail, and the upper body of an adult male all give the frozen creature a sense of fairytale beauty.

Under the ice, the mermaid's tail and elbow fins showed a clear ice blue color, with obvious color gradients. The closer to the human figure, the lighter the part, which naturally blended with the humanoid skin.

The color of the hair is similar to fog blue, very long, tangled together like seaweed, and floating in the ice like a cloud.

Looking at his posture, it seems that he just fell asleep in the ice.

Everyone else was amazed and praised loudly, and the female geologist Litton said in an aria-like tone: "My God, he is so beautiful that he shouldn't belong to the world!"

After being cut, the size of the "Mermaid Ice Sculpture" can finally enter the gate of the base.

The largest marine creature rescued by the scientific research station is the seal. The size of the pool cannot hold a mermaid over two meters in length. prepared brine.

The indoor window of the room was converted into an observation window, which is convenient for climbing in and studying after thawing.

It takes several hours for the "ice sculpture" to thaw, and someone has to wait for observation. The biologists in the entire scientific research station are only Beiqi and Lin Zhe. Beiqi has just returned from the inspection and needs to rest. On Luo Cheng's body.

Luo Cheng simply couldn't wish for it.

——It would be best to kill him as soon as he thawed, before he woke up.

The clock pointed to 2:16 in the middle of the night.

The sun hangs low outside the window, and the day is endless. The sun shines on the water, glowing with golden light.

Luo Cheng blew his nose forcefully, had a splitting headache, and had a low-grade fever.

He leaned against the cold glass to cool down physically, stared at the mermaid sinking in the water, and tightly clenched the tetrodotoxin injection in his hand.

Under the sun and lights, the mermaid's body is indeed beautiful.

The ice on the surface of the body was about to melt away, and the long foggy blue hair was floating under the water like soft water plants.

The tip of his tail is blue like the deep sea, and the fine scales are shining like ice, the color of the scales becomes lighter and bigger as it goes up.The scales around the waist are the size of a baby's fist, and the color is almost transparent, completely blending into the cool white skin tone, as are the ear and elbow fins.

This "blingbling" flashing effect is comparable to the special effect of Mary Sue's vampire in "Twilight".

Seeing that the time was almost up, Luo Cheng took off his clothes, leaving only a pair of underwear on, opened the observation window and got in.

The indoor temperature of the scientific research station is kept at 25°C all year round, and it is not cold even after taking off his clothes. After entering the water, the temperature dropped a little, and he shivered involuntarily when the cool and soft water flowed up.

Quickly adapting to the water temperature, Luo Cheng walked towards the sleeping mermaid.

The depth of the water was about 1.5 meters, the mermaid sank to the bottom, Luo Cheng leaned over and grabbed his arm and pulled him up.

The skin it touched was as cold as ice, much smoother to the touch than human skin.The muscles under the skin were still stiff, obviously not completely thawed.

Now is the best time to inject the toxin. With the slow thawing, the tetrodotoxin will flow throughout the body along with the gradually accelerated blood circulation, killing him unconsciously.

When he died, he didn't struggle at all, and he might not even have time to wake up.

Pulling the arm out of the water, the wet skin quickly becomes dry in the air, white as snow fog.

But in the blink of an eye, the surface of the mermaid's skin was covered with a transparent and hard film, which was as warm and cool as nephrite.

Luo Cheng hit him with a needle, but he couldn't poke it in.

Putting the arm back into the water, within a second, the film softened and melted.

Damn, there is such a high-end self-defense system.

Luo Cheng compared uncertainly: Is it possible to get an injection underwater?

Try it.

Stretch the needle into the water, touch the skin, and stab it smoothly.

Luo Cheng was about to push the syringe when suddenly he was hit by a strong force in the back.

He was slammed into the water by the force behind him, and caught off guard, he took a big mouthful of salt water.

In astonishment, he stared at a face.

The underwater mermaid opened her eyes, with a pair of silver-gray pupils surrounded by blue eyelashes.

The translucent silver-gray is like the shoal in the sun and the wilderness in the haze.

The snow melted and the ice was exposed.
