Chapter 304: Take Ryan Away, Big Hunt

Lu Xingchen remained preoccupied until 10 p.m.

She didn't know whether the evil mermaid would appear tonight.

Gao Dafu and Gu Yanzhi also had this concern, so they got together on a raft and took turns to keep watch.

Lu Xingchen asked her grandmother to go to bed early, and she also returned to the bedroom.

However, she didn't dare to sleep soundly, but instead notified the Sea Demon Vine to wake her up at one o'clock in the morning.

According to experience, the evil mermaid always appears at one or two o'clock in the morning.

Lu Xingchen is asleep.

She didn't know how long it had been. She didn't hear the sound of the sea devil vine, but she heard the sound of the little seal: "Woo-wah, woo-wah!"

In the quiet night, the sound of the little seal was particularly loud, and it immediately woke up Lu Xingchen, who was sleeping restlessly.

She immediately left the house.

There were eight red lanterns hanging on her raft, which provided good light. As soon as she rushed out, she looked around.

I saw the little seal guarding the blue krill breeding box at a glance. It was back again.

Besides it, there is another mermaid—Mira.

Mira sat on the swing chair, resting her chin on her hand in deep thought.

There was nothing else superfluous besides that.

Lu Xingchen breathed a sigh of relief, sat on the swing chair opposite her, and asked Mira, "It's so late, aren't you going to sleep?"

Mira shook her head: "I can't sleep!"

She stood up dejectedly and said, "I searched the Queen and Renn's residence and found some more information."

Lu Xingchen: “Ah?”

Is there another mission coming up?

Mira said, "Rain's father must be of good status, so he was able to suppress his evil aura. That's why he was able to stay in good condition before. But in the last few days, after turning seventeen, his evil mermaid bloodline awakened, and he can't suppress it anymore."

Lu Xingchen nodded: "So, he was the evil mermaid who killed people a few days ago?"

Mira: "It's complicated. It's not always him. Sometimes it's Loqiusha. Rein only has an attack at night. When he wakes up during the day, he forgets what happened. Every time, Loqiusha takes him away and helps him suppress it. That time, I shot Loqiusha."

Lu Xingchen nodded again.

No wonder, sometimes the ghosts in the middle of the night kill people in different ways, so sometimes it’s Ryan, and sometimes it’s Luo Qiusha who wants to frame Mira?

Suddenly, she thought of something: "No, Ryan knew that he had killed someone."

Mira: "I think he only found out in the last two days. I'm afraid that even if he knew, he wouldn't be able to control himself."

Then... Renn might kill someone again tonight!

Mira added, "Tonight, Luo Qiusha is gone. I'm afraid Ryan will kill someone. The more he kills, the harder it will be to suppress the evil mermaid's aura. So, I'll be here to watch."

Lu Xingchen: "And what about after that?"

We can't just watch over him like this every day, right? Can't we lock Ryan up in the Mermaid Palace?

What Lu Xingchen was most worried about was that she was about to participate in a big hunt, and with Ryan as a time bomb, she was scared.

After all, Grandma was still on the raft.

Mira was silent for a moment, then said with difficulty, "Xiao Lu, can you help me?"

Lu Xingchen: "Of course I want to help you, but you have to tell me how to help, and I also have to be able to help."

She paused for a moment, then said, "I think the key is you. Right now, you are Ryan's only family member, and you have a deep bond. Your understanding and support for him are even more important."

Mira nodded: "I understand."

She looked a little haggard.

Lu Xingchen felt a pang of pity. Mira was only thirteen years old, yet she had suffered such a terrible fate. Her former mother was now her mother's killer, and her brother had become an evil mermaid. She was so young, yet she had to shoulder the heavy responsibility of protecting the mermaid race.

Lu Xingchen said softly, "How can I help you?"
