Die with the boss [Quick Transmigration]
Chapter 42 The Shape of Water
The moment Luo Cheng faced those eyes, he almost froze.
There was no trace of human emotion in those eyes, with a ferocious beast-like scrutiny, looking down at him, no different from looking down at a brick or a blade of grass.
He recalled the contents of the experiment report again:
"Due to frequent and prolonged transitions between human-like and fish-like forms, the subject appears to have symptoms of DID (Dissociative Identity Disorder).
When in the fish-like form, the experimental subject completely believes that he is a fish, and is extremely aggressive and bloodthirsty; in the humanoid form, the experimental subject is basically the same as a normal human, and has a highly developed IQ and Learning ability, but also violent and autistic tendencies.
...It is recommended to immediately stop the forced form transformation of the experimental subject. Facts have proved that this behavior not only caused a great burden on the physiological state of the experimental subject, but also a terrible devastation to its psychological state. "
Elvis walked in after him, and he couldn't help sighing: "My God...how did it become like this?"
While whispering, Luo Cheng had already walked up the stairs next to the column, Elvis hesitated for a moment, but still did not follow, and went back to the door to look out for them.
Luo Cheng walked step by step to the observation deck on the top of the cylindrical water tank, and Si Chen slowly rose up in the water following his position, his cold eyes following him like a shadow, like staring at a prey that was close at hand.
The top of the water column is sealed, and there is only a one-meter-square window next to the observation deck, which can only be opened from the outside, preventing the possibility of the mermaid escaping.
Si Chen swam up from the deep water, his head emerged from the water, and looked up quietly through the window.
Luo Cheng knelt down on one knee, and after looking down at him for a moment, he took a deep breath and opened the window.
The cold water droplets splashed on his face, Luo Cheng didn't move.
Si Chen stretched out his wet hands to grab the edge of the window, and his body "crashed" out of the water.
Those silver-gray eyes suddenly darkened several degrees, deep and dull, like a well filled with stagnant water.
He slowly approached Luo Cheng, raised his face, and leaned against his neck to sniff closely.
The surroundings were so quiet that one could hear each other's heartbeats. Suddenly, the low and slow rhythm became rapid, and huge waves were set off in the stagnant water.
A faint strange and cold fragrance filled the air, Si Chen trembled violently, he stepped back suddenly, and opened a large distance from Luo Cheng.
He stared at Luo Cheng intently, his bright silver eyes almost burning.
Luo Cheng couldn't help laughing, smiling, feeling astringent in his heart, a sigh escaped from his lips.
He stretched out his hand and said to the disbelieving mermaid in the water, "I'm here."
Si Chen's lips opened and closed, and after a long time, he finally uttered a difficult and vague syllable: "... Lin?"
Oh shit.
Luo Cheng's eyes were almost sore, he gritted his teeth to hold back the emotional impulse, and stretched his hand forward, "It's me, I'll take you away."
Three seconds later, the mermaid, which had grown into an adult body, jumped on him and almost took him into the water with him.
Luo Cheng pulled Si Chen out, took off his coat and wiped off the water on him.After a few minutes, he finally understood the meaning of "caused a great burden on the physiological condition of the experimental subject" in the experiment report.
After the fish tail finally completely turned into a leg, he carried Si Chen who was almost fainted from the pain and walked down the stairs. For the first time, there was such a clear killing intent in his heart.
Taking the prepared clothes from Elvis, Luo Cheng put them on Si Chen one by one, and carried him out again.
As the bells of Christmas passed, they left the Rogers Research Institute under the cover of night, and the black Ford car drove fast on the quiet and deserted streets, all the way to Baltimore, more than 30 kilometers away.
An hour later, the car arrived at Baltimore's Inner Harbor.
Si Chen fell into a drowsy sleep, Luo Cheng had no choice but to bend down and carry him out.
Elvis sat in the car, leaning against the window and asked, "Eddie, are you coming back?"
Luo Cheng smiled and didn't answer, he understood, sighed, and said reluctantly: "Bon voyage, brother."
Luo Cheng nodded to him, turned around and walked towards the port.
Among the medium-sized fishing boats, there was an inconspicuous stowaway boat.Elvis has already greeted Snake/Head, and they have chartered the ship, except for the captain and two sailors, they are the only two passengers.
Luo Cheng carried Si Chen into the room prepared for them on the ship, put him on the bed, went out to ask the captain for some food and fresh water, and then went back to the room and closed the door tightly.
There was a small shower room in the room. Luo Cheng fetched water and wiped the cold sweat on Si Chen's face and neck. Just as he withdrew his hand, the young man suddenly opened his eyes.
The bright silver pupils shrank suddenly and then dilated for an instant. The expression on his face was still subconsciously vigilant and irritable, but his eyes had already softened.
He stared blankly at the man leaning over to take care of him, until Luo Cheng suspected that he was stupid, reached out and patted his face lightly, then he suddenly came back to his senses, stretched out his hand and grabbed it tightly before he could leave The hand on his own cheek.
He asked hoarsely, "...Lin Zhe?"
Luo Cheng simply sat down by the bed, "Yeah."
Si Chen turned his face and looked around.Just like two years ago, he didn't have any doubts, completely trusting, he didn't even ask why or where he was going, just smiled happily and innocently: "Are we going to go?"
Luo Cheng's breath stagnated suddenly, mixed with guilt, guilty conscience and some complicated emotions that he couldn't explain clearly, which made him lose his voice for a moment.Under the gaze of those soft and clear eyes, he smiled a bit reluctantly: "In four more hours, we will set off after dawn."
Si Chen nodded, grabbed his hand and shook it, "I'm so hungry."
Luo Cheng got up quickly and brought the prepared food and fresh water.
After eating something, Si Chen fell asleep again exhausted.
At around five o'clock in the morning, the sky was slightly brighter, and the stowaway boat set off from the port.
Luo Cheng stood on the deck, looking at the gradually receding port hidden in the light blue mist, but his mood became more and more heavy.
Leaving country M, his mission has just begun.
His fingers curled up unconsciously, gripping the railing tightly.
A month later, they arrived at Banks Island, located in the Arctic Circle, where the polar night shrouded the sparsely populated ice and snow land.
The only permanent settlement on the island is Goldman Bay, with a population of less than a hundred gathered in a tiny village.
A warm and hospitable family accepted them. Si Chen was deeply wary of all human beings except Luo Cheng. Luo Cheng almost dragged him into the house of the local residents.
They lived here for half a month.
In this half month, there are only the gorgeous and mysterious aurora and the starry night, and the short day at noon is also like a dark, misty blue dream.
Day and night lose their boundaries, the galaxy hangs upside down on the icy white wasteland, and time seems to stand still here.
In this extremely beautiful blue fantasy dream, Si Chen spent the last happy time of his life.
The happier he smiled, the more complex emotions in Luo Cheng's heart deepened.
As that day approached, Luo Cheng's insomnia became more and more serious.
In the middle of the night before the last day, Luo Cheng lay motionless on the bed for three hours and finally opened his eyes helplessly.
Si Chen curled up beside him, wrapped in the thick grizzly fur, looking sound asleep.
Luo Cheng got out of bed quietly, put on his coat, walked to the living room, sat down by the fire, and lit a cigarette.
Staring blankly at the unextinguished fire and smoking half a cigarette, his shoulders suddenly felt warm, and a hairy head was wrapped in the warmth of the quilt and rested in the nest of his neck.
Si Chen rubbed against his back, and asked in a daze, "Why don't you sleep, aren't you sleepy?"
Luo Cheng stroked his hair with his backhand, "Did it wake you up?"
Si Chen gave an honest "Hang", moved to sit next to him, and stretched out his hand: "Give me a bite."
During the half month of living together, Luo Cheng inevitably smoked, but Si Chen followed suit and pestered him to have a drink from time to time.Luo Cheng originally thought that smoking was harmful to his health, so it was rare for him to succeed.
But in this quiet night, he silently took the cigarette from his mouth and handed it over.
Sitting side by side by the warm fire, they shared the last cigarette in silence.
The next day the weather was fine, the wind was calm and the sea was calm. Taking advantage of the short day at noon, Luo Cheng borrowed a boat from the resident.
As usual, Si Chen followed him out to sea without asking any questions.
There are large pieces of floating ice on the surface of the vast sea, the color of the sea is so dark that it is almost black.
Luocheng stopped the boat only a hundred meters away from the coastline. A brightly colored boat floated between black and white, so small that it was almost nothing in front of the majestic power of nature.
Si Chen stretched out his hand to brush the sea water, and glanced at the village on the shore from a distance.
He looked back at Luo Cheng, the lively expression faded from his face like faded oil paint.
His long misty blue hair half covered his expression, Si Chen looked at him quietly in the sudden wind, and said, "I never asked you why."
Luo Cheng was stunned, a premonition of "it really is so" welled up in his heart.
He said calmly: "For a month and a half, I thought you would at least tell me a reason."
Luo Cheng's heart twitched violently, and he clenched his hands in his pockets calmly, "...you know everything?"
"From a long time ago, when I understood what you did to me two years ago." He even smiled, with the innocence of the past in his smile, "but I still think you don't Will do that, or you don't want to do that. So I've been waiting for you to tell me why."
In those dark silver eyes, a thick layer of sadness finally filled like a rising tide: "Lin Zhe, can you tell me why you want to kill me?"
Luo Cheng pursed his lips tightly, biting his teeth so painfully.
He pulled out his left hand that was tightly clenched in his pocket, holding a familiar Browning pistol/gun in his palm.
According to the experiment report, the physical strength of Si Chen in human form is far lower than in mermaid form, and the healing speed is only one-twentieth of the original.
With a bullet through the heart, even he would die.
All the emotions on Si Chen's face finally turned into disappointment.
"If you wanted me to die, why did you let me come into this world in the first place?" He stared stubbornly into his eyes, "Why did you create me and then kill me? Why don't you even tell me this?"
Luo Cheng couldn't give him any answer, he could only reply: "Sorry."
He pulled the trigger.
boom!
There was no trace of human emotion in those eyes, with a ferocious beast-like scrutiny, looking down at him, no different from looking down at a brick or a blade of grass.
He recalled the contents of the experiment report again:
