Chapter 74:

In the past two days, Lu Yue has been staying in his own lounge. During this time, Leo came over several times, but he was randomly sent away. It stands to reason that the mermaid should have some action, but it hasn't been so far. Lu Yue sat in front of the large glass window and looked at the calm sea outside, her clear eyes were stained with a pale blue halo.
[001 suddenly said: The host is big, what are you looking at? 】
[Lu Yue's expression is unpredictable: Guess? 】
Seeing that Lu Xiaojing was joking at himself, 001 was a little uncomfortable.
[Lu Yue: How many mermaids do you say under the sea? 】
This time they were originally intended to catch mermaids in the third sea, but no other mermaids were found except "Asura". Although weird, Leo was convinced that there were other mermaids here. However, after so many days, the shadow of the mermaid was still not found.
Is there really no other mermaid here?
Everyone began to doubt. But Lu Yue knew not.
[001: The mermaid on the sea floor? 001 began to detect, and a few seconds later said: [Yes, probably ... more than three hundred. ] 001's tone contained a hint of exclamation, but Lu Yue drew the corner of his mouth at this moment.
These mermaids are indeed cunning.
That night, Lu Yue woke up from his sleep again, and he dreamed of the mermaid again. He didn't go to the laboratory for four days and gave the simple things to the people under his hands. He acknowledged that he was running away and he was a coward. He couldn't bear this bad feeling, he could only think secretly in his heart.
Whenever he dreams, he always remembers the mermaid's gentle eyes and sweet love words. Whenever this time, he feels like his heart is floating on the gentle sea. But in a blink of an eye, he remembered the mermaid's last injured and resentful eyes. His heart was like a tear ripped open, and the red blood oozed from it.
He hurt that beautiful and powerful creature, which was his sin.
The next morning, Lu Yue's face looked a little pale. After washing, he sat at the table to process the material, which was data about the mermaid's body.
He looked at it, and the shadow of the mermaid appeared in front of him. He looked at himself with a smile, and the corner of his mouth evoked a habitual curvature.
Lu Yue's heartstrings were moved again, and he could no longer see this information. He walked outside, facing the wet sea breeze in the air, and seemed to walk aimlessly. When he came to the door of the laboratory that day, he stopped in amazement. Then he smiled bitterly, did he just want to see the mermaid?
Lu Yue wanted to turn around and go back, but suddenly there was a person inside. He looked hurried, with anxiety and irritability on his face, and suddenly saw Lu Yue's eyes brightened.
"Professor Lin! I'm going to find you!" Talking is the youngest young man in the experimental team, named Ryan. Lu Yue prefers such frank young people to those stubborn old men, although he himself also very young.
"What's wrong?" Lu Yue asked immediately, and his tone returned to calm.
Lian said: "Professor Lin! The mermaid has been very depressed these days and has been reluctant to eat. He did not eat any sardines we hunted."
Lu Yue suddenly emptied her heart, and her face sank: "When did it start?"
Ryan stroked his head and thought, "It was about four days ago."
Four days ago? When he left the laboratory?
Lu Yue tried to restrain his anxious heart, and tried to calm down: "So how is he now?"
"The situation is not very good. The fish scales on his body have already fallen off. If this continues, I am afraid it will be very bad."
When Ryan finished speaking, Lu Yue almost fainted on the spot.
"Professor Lin, if you are worried, let's go in and take a look. I think the mermaid may be closer to you."
Lu Yue didn't know how he walked in, but when he saw the mermaid lying motionless in the glass jar, he was so distressed that he was bleeding.
How could a mermaid be like this?
Lu Yue couldn't believe it. The mermaid, sometimes cute, would become so lifeless.
The people in the lab are all busy. They are only interested in research, regardless of whether the mermaid is dead or alive.
Lu Yue, sad and angry, drove everyone out in a hurry.
It might be that the mermaid heard his voice, and the tightly closed eyes slowly opened a slit.
"forest……"
The mermaid called him gently. In just one sentence, Lu Yue's tears came out. He almost shouted across the glass and said, "What are you doing! Do you want to die?"
The mermaid looked at him with a little doubt: "I'm not dying, I just don't want to move. You don't want to see me anyway, why bother with me?"
The mermaid's voice was also weak. He said something similar to Complaining to Lu Yue so softly, but his eyes were clear that he completely gave up hope.
"Like you said, you are a human, I am a mermaid, how can a human be in love with a mermaid?"
"Let's go."
You go.
This sigh was poked into Lu Yue's heart like a blunt sword. The mermaid turned away and no longer looked at him. Through the glass, Lu Yue clearly saw the mermaid's scales falling off, and the beautiful ice blue was melted at the moment. As a blue liquid-that's the mermaid's blood.
The next moment, Lu Yue gritted his teeth, and there was a desperate light in his eyes. He said: "I will never let you die."
When he suddenly jumped into the water from the glass door above, the mermaid was startled.
The water in the glass jar was nearly three meters deep, and Lu Yue was completely submerged as soon as he fell into it. Although he studies marine life, he is a veritable dry duck. He didn't know anything about water, not even holding his breath.
The mermaid immediately arched the tail of the fish as soon as he jumped down, bouncing like a shuttle, and where he still looked sick before half a minute.
He steadily dragged Lu Yue out of the water, still wanting to pretend to be cold but still leaked a bit of anger: "What are you doing?"
Lu Yue was drenched with water. His hair and clothes were soaked, and even the trembling eyelashes were covered with water droplets. He raised his white neck and looked at the mermaid's face close to him, and said, "I want to save you."
The mermaid watched a wolverine-looking young man say such a serious and ridiculous statement, and the cold heart couldn't help a little more touch. In the end, he still said according to his trap: "I said, I'm fine. You don't need to do this, even if I really die, the responsibility is not with you."
The mermaid said he relaxed the strength of holding the youth, but still gently supported his waist to prevent him from falling again.
Lu Yue opened her mouth, but was speechless. At this point his heart was sore, how could he just hang the word "death" by his mouth so easily?
The drops of water on his hair slid down his cheeks, and Lu Yue's face was paler. His eyes were full of blame and pain. He seemed to be making a major decision, which made his straight back slightly drooping, looking A bit pitiful.
The mermaid was admiring Lu Yue's rare expression, but he suddenly shivered, "Can you not do this? I ... I don't want you to die."
The mermaid's pupils dilated for a moment. Compared to the surprise and tremor in his eyes, his voice sounded like a persecution calm: "What do you mean?"
Lu Yue lowered her head and rolled her throat.
The mermaid immediately clamped his arm and questioned sneerly: "Are you sympathizing with me? Or do you think I am a precious guinea pig, and you do n’t have to study it when I die?"
Lu Yue looked up: "How do you ... think so?"
"Then what do you make me think? Am I going to deceive myself and say you're in love with me, Lin?"
The mermaid's voice seemed to be self-deprecating, but very calm. He stared straight at Lu Yue with those half-sorrowful and painful eyes, as if he was going to be carved into his own eyes.
Lu Yue looked at each other with that kind of eyes, and the last fears and hesitations in her heart disappeared.
Yeah, the mermaid in front of him loves him, why is he willing to make him so painful?
Lu Yue immediately let go, but then a little nervous again, he asked softly: "Are you ... willing to ... let me be your partner?" He was so nervous when he asked this, the whole face They were all buried in the shadows, and after asking, they worried whether they would be too quiet and the other party didn't hear them.
But the mermaid clearly heard it. The young man's nervous and shy words were like the soft algae on the bottom of the sea, and instantly moved the softest part of his heart. The cold web claw almost grabbed the young man's shoulder, and his voice was anxious and unbelievable: "What did you say?"
Lu Yue had already consumed a great deal of courage after saying that sentence. Now where would I reveal that shame again?
"Lin, do you mean you want to be my partner, do you mean that?"
"Speak, Lin!" The mermaid's tone was markedly excited. He shook Lu Yue's shoulders lightly, and the thick fish tail behind him also twitched like a loach with excitement. Yue's face.
Lu Yue looked at his excitement, and was a little overwhelmed in his heart. In addition, there was a strange sweetness.
He pushed the mermaid and motioned to quiet him: "Okay, don't be so loud."
"You really agreed!" The mermaid's voice increased without dropping, and the eyes looking at Lu Yue were extremely hot.
Lu Yue hesitated for a long time, and finally slipped a "hmm" from his throat, and the tip of his ears turned red after speaking.
The mermaid happily opened his white teeth. The fish's tail slaps on the water at once. He suddenly said to the youth looking down, "Can you kiss me?"
"Ah?" Lu Yue was apparently held back by the sudden request.
"Since you promised my partner, a kiss isn't too much. Don't you just lie to me?"
The mermaid's eyes finally became suspicious, and Lu Yue immediately retorted: "No, I'm not lying to you!"
The mermaid laughed, and even raised a sharp eyebrow, the expression was clearly saying: "Don't lie to me, then prove it to me!"
Lu Yue was always shy about this kind of thing, and letting him kiss the mermaid was a test for him, but the sight of the mermaid really tightened his scalp, as if he didn't stop if he didn't, it was like a rogue.
It's just a kiss, he can. Thinking of this, Lu Yue took a deep breath.
