"Mr. Xie Cheng, I didn't expect you to hide so well. I almost didn't find you."
The boy's voice came from above his head, with a bit of mischief, but it scared the monster under the tree. He looked up suddenly and saw the boy sitting on the tree.
The boy in the moonlight had black hair like ink, delicate features, and was wearing a long robe that reached his ankles.
With just one glance, the monster recognized who the boy was.
"Mermaid Yin Baichi!"
The hoarse voice sounded like rusty gears, accompanied by a grumbling sound.
The boy in the tree clapped his hands and said, "Not bad, not bad. It seems I found the right person."
Then Bai Chi's gaze moved down to those disgusting scales, and his eyes suddenly turned cold.
"As far as I know, each of these scales on your body represents a human life, right?"
The monster finally remembered the current situation, and after reacting, he panicked and wanted to return to the sewer.
But when he moved, he was shocked to find that he could not move at all. Panic instantly spread throughout his body, and waves of cold sweat broke out, causing the pustules on his body to burst faster.
With a snap of his fingers, a piece of scales on the monster's body was pulled out. The monster let out a shrill scream, but the sound did not spread out.
Even the blood that flowed out from the place where the scales were pulled out was dark green. This person was no longer a human being from the inside out.
Of course, not a mermaid either.
He injected all the mermaid genes he extracted from those humans into his own body, causing scales to grow.
A person is a scale.
Perhaps it was the first success that made Xie Cheng think that he could transform into a mermaid, but he ended up becoming the monster in front of him that was neither human nor ghost.
According to Bai Chi's investigation, this guy hasn't met Xie Yun for almost two years. Not only Xie Yun, but also other people, all communicated through the optical computer, and no one had ever seen his true face.
I just thought I was hiding my whereabouts, but I didn't expect that I would turn myself into such a monster that is neither human nor ghost!
Baichi was pulling out the scales one by one. There was a fire next to him, and all the pulled scales were thrown into the fire and burned.
The monster's shrill screams gradually disappeared from the initial piercing sound, and it lay on the ground dying, only twitching occasionally.
Bai Chi was not satisfied until all the scales on the monster's body were pulled out and burned clean. At this time, the monster's face had returned to its normal appearance.
But his body was still covered with foul-smelling pus-filled sores, and there was unchewed raw fish in his mouth. He could only breathe in but not out.
"Master, let's go back quickly, meow. This person is getting more and more disgusting the more I look at him, meow."
Seeing that his master had finished his work, Xiao Hei began to urge him.
Bai Chi didn't plan to stay any longer, so he turned around and went back to his room in the research institute. He glanced at the time and saw that the whole process took less than an hour.
At this moment, Chu Yunxiao was still reading the reports sent by officials from various places.
After yawning, Bai Chi lazily lay on the sponge mattress, looking at her husband's handsome face, and quickly fell asleep.
Xiao Hei kept staring at the monster, making sure that he had died before being discovered and had not left any special information.
The next morning, Bai Chi swam out of the house lazily. He had received the message from Chu Yunxiao and would come over later today.
"Master, master, something's wrong, meow."
Before I could even wake up, I heard Xiao Hei's anxious voice.
'What's wrong?'
Breakfast has been delivered, personally delivered by Chu Yunxiao's housekeeper.
But Bai Chi had no appetite at the moment. He just floated in the water like a corpse and didn't want to go ashore.
"Meow, Master, do you remember the person who almost bullied the original owner? Since Xie Cheng turned into a monster so early, who was that person, meow!"
Xiao Hei's CPU is about to burn out, this is not right!
Bai Chi was not surprised at all, and even laughed.
"I thought you wouldn't notice. When Xie Cheng died, did you receive the notification that the mission was successful?"
"Meow, no."
"That's all, there are still people hiding."
It opened its mouth, spit out a string of bubbles, popped two, then swung its tail and swam quickly to the surface of the water.
"Butler, can you take me to find Chu Yunxiao?"
