Chapter 37 Chapter 37
Is its feeling towards its master love?
Mu Mu rarely encountered such a philosophical question, and she was so absorbed in thinking that she forgot to eat and sleep.
Sometimes when she was sleeping soundly, the key words such as "love", "master", and "possessiveness" suddenly flashed through her mind, and she suddenly woke up and stayed awake until dawn;
sometimes when she was halfway through eating fish, she felt Wen Ming's eyes, and she slowly swallowed the fish in her mouth and stared into the distance in a daze.
Wen Ming saw her absent-mindedness.
"Mu Mu." Wen Ming said to the little mermaid who was looking into the void in the swimming pool, "Do you want to go outside?"
Outside?
Mu Mu's expression became even more confused.
Wen Ming stared at the fish in his hand: "Do you want to go to the sea?"
Mu Mu's tail fin swooped upwards. If the ears could move, they would have turned into propellers on the head.
"Huh?" Can we really go to the sea!
Wen Ming had an expression of "as expected", half-closed his eyes, and compromised: "Then go."
Wen Ming signed up for the counseling competition.
The organizer of this event is the Mermaid Center, and the location is set by the sea. It may be a trap set by the main person in charge, Professor Yin.
Wen Ming prepared a special effect soothing agent for this, which can support Wen Ming to use the spiritual sea once.
And he made three rules with Mu Mu:
First, he could only move within the sea area separated by the activity area;
second, he could not eat anything in the sea, including the fish and seaweed he usually ate;
third, if he sensed danger, he had to swim to the shore to find Wen Ming as soon as possible.
"If you violate any of these rules, I will take you home immediately and never take you out to play again. Do you understand?" Wen Ming warned him on the day of the activity.
Mu Mu nodded and shook his head.
Wen Ming's attitude did not relax at all: "Repeat it."
Mu Mu put his hands behind his back and recited it seriously, shouting "Ah" as if he was reciting a text.
After repeating, it carefully glanced at the sea not far away, yearning but melancholy:
"Ahhh..." But the radio said that this is a grooming competition. If I can only get the last place, can you still take me out to play next time?
"Wen Ming!"
Xiao Jun patted Wen Ming's shoulder from behind: "What are you talking to yourself here? The competition is about to start."
In the mermaid cage brought by Xiao Jun, Huahua smelled the familiar scent of her companions and shouted loudly:
"Woo——" Big brother, is that you!
Mu Mu leaned on the edge of the water tank: "Ah!"
"Oh my God, did you bring Mu Mu here like this? Where is the mermaid cage?" Xiao Jun shivered and pointed to the transparent fish tank.
I saw a large water tank behind the driver's seat in Wen Ming's airship, and Mu Mu was in it.
This is a very dangerous way to transport mermaids.
It’s not that they are afraid that the water in the water tank will splash out, but if the mermaid is not locked in the mermaid cage, the mermaid will often jump around.
If the mermaid jumps out of the water tank and falls on the airship control panel, it is very likely to crash...
"No matter how much you trust Mu Mu, you can't take such a risk, right?"
Xiao Jun looked at the little mermaid with an expression that he couldn't understand:
"Mu Mu, too, be more sensible. Other mermaids are willing to enter the mermaid cage, why do you..."
Xiao Jun couldn't say the rest.
The look at this moment seemed to make him travel back to the interstellar battlefield-
Admiral Wen Ming was issuing a warning: Either shut up or die.
Wen Ming's way of doing things is very clear. He once rescued his captured comrades in the deep enemy, and he also crushed the spiritual sea of the traitor without changing his expression.
The reason why Xiao Jun became his only friend was because he respected the "rules" of being with him -
abiding by the bottom line.
But Xiao Jun didn't expect that the mermaid Mu Mu would also become one of the "bottom lines".
"..."
Xiao Jun held it in for a while, then he was able to bend and stretch: "Mu Mu is great, he didn't make any trouble along the way."
Mu Mu had never heard of such abrupt turns, and scratched his head:
"Oh?" Has your memory been infected by Hua Hua?
Wen Ming stepped forward and clipped a strand of hair by its ear.
Xiao Jun widened his eyes and carefully observed the hairpin: "Could this be?"
Wen Ming turned on the positioning system of the hairpin, and a red light spot lit up in real time in the optical computer, showing Mu Mu's location.
"Isn't this a high-precision locator used by the interstellar military?" Xiao Jun lowered his voice, "How is it integrated into the hairpin?"
"As long as it is hard enough, the chip can be attached." Wen Ming's fingertips rubbed the broken diamonds on the hairpin.
Xiao Jun's eyelids twitched: What is hidden in the counseling competition that makes Wen Ming so cautious?
"Well, this area of water has held several mermaid activities before. It is the safest area separated, so don't worry."
Xiao Jun helped the mermaid cage: "If Mu Mu is not used to the sea, find Hua Hua and let Hua Hua take you out to play."
Mu Mu curled up the corners of his mouth.
The radio began to urge, and the mermaid owners released the mermaids into the sea
one after another. Hua Hua spit as soon as she entered the sea:
"Pooh!" What kind of water is this, it actually has a smell!
Mu Mu stretched his whole body, feeling the fishy and salty sea water comfortably on every scale.
Although he couldn't win any prize for his grooming ability and came to the grooming competition just for the sake of playing a role, Mu Mu was extremely satisfied to be in touch with the sea.
He swam away from the shore and found that this shallow sea area was surrounded by metal nets. Mermaids couldn't swim out of this range, and large creatures in the sea couldn't swim in.
Mu Mu stopped in front of the isolation net and sniffed carefully in the direction of the ocean:
"This is not the sea where I lived when I was a child..."
He and his people may not be on the same planet.
"Ah! What should I do?"
A human screamed helplessly: "I accidentally dropped my mermaid's toy in!"
The mechanical net on the shore stretched out a long mechanical arm and chased after the toy, but the mechanical arm stretched to the farthest distance and failed to catch it.
"Alas, it's drifting farther and farther, and I can't get it back." The man sighed, "I just bought a floating ball, what a pity..."
Floating ball?
Mu Mu moved his pointed ears and swam upstream.
The floating ball is a new product of the company where the master works part-time. The human who buys the floating ball is a customer of the master's company.
We must help this distinguished guest!
The human on the shore watched the floating ball drift away, and it was about to drift out of the activity range...
"Plop!"
A fish tail suddenly appeared from under the floating ball and slapped it upwards.
The water ball was surrounded by a circle of water splashes and flew into the air. People exclaimed unconsciously, as if they were appreciating a water show.
The blue mermaid followed the floating water ball, jumped high, and pushed the floating water ball up.
"What a beautiful mermaid! It has the most beautiful curve in the air I have ever seen."
"The water ball was pushed into the machine net?"
"I thought the floating water ball was going to be lost. What a luck! Fortunately, the mermaid likes to play with the floating water ball!"
Many mermaid owners were amazed by this scene and planted the seeds of the floating water ball.
"Super cute braided hair! The owner of this mermaid must be a clever lady!"
"Pfft - it's the mermaid raised by Admiral Wen."
"Uh, then, which beauty salon did he take the mermaid to do her hair?"
"He braided it himself. I heard from an employee of Wen's that Admiral Wen shows off his cute mermaid every day on the Star Network."
"...Ah?"
Admiral Wen was taken away?
The mermaid owner who got the floating ball back walked to Wen Ming: "Admiral Wen, thank you very much for your mermaid..."
Wen Ming gestured with one hand, interrupting the other party: "You can just thank him directly."
The man adjusted his sun hat in confusion: "To, to the mermaid?"
Wen Ming looked at the sea: "Mu Mu."
The little blue mermaid popped out of his head and responded with an "Ah".
The mermaid owner wearing a sun hat did not dare to question Wen Ming, and shouted into the sea:
"Is your name Mu Mu? Thank you for helping me pick up the ball!"
"No!" You're welcome, distinguished guest of the floating ball!
"It really responded!" The humans exclaimed in surprise.
The man in the sun hat brought a bunch of snack bags: "Admiral Wen, which one does Mu Mu like? I want to feed it."
"No, it's not hungry."
Mu Mu seemed to have guessed what the man in the sun hat meant, and he kept humming and turning around in a hurry.
The crowd that was attracted by the little mermaid was dissatisfied and whispered:
"Alas, Admiral Wen is still so cold and heartless."
"Yes, the mermaid is asking for food!"
Wen Ming's expression did not relax at all. Only he knew that the little mermaid was not anxious about snacks -
a fish swam past Mu Mu with great fanfare. Mu Mu was so greedy that he raised his head and looked at Wen Ming pitifully.
"Can I catch a fish to eat? Just one!"
Wen Ming lowered his eyes, blocking Mu Mu's starry eyes, and his attitude was firm.
In the activities hosted by Professor Yin, we must not take it lightly.
"Give it whatever it wants..."
The man in the sun hat was completely melted by the little mermaid's eyes, and helped to speak: "Look at its expression of grievance, it's about to cry."
"Yes, it just wants to eat, not the Zerg planet."
"Give it to it, give it to it!"
Name: Mu Mu
Passive skill: Popularity LV100
Active skill: Cuteness LV100
Skill effect: Influence humans with fish lips and make the shore their home ground
This trick is quite effective, and Wen Ming has become the only "villain".
He glanced at Mu Mu's happily wagging tail and chuckled:
"He's pretending, but he's actually very happy."
Others:?
Mu Mu's skill was exposed, and he blinked a few times quickly, and the tip of his ears trembled unnaturally.
Wen Ming continued to interpret: "Now he feels guilty."
Others:? ? ?
Mu Mu angrily hit the water surface, snorted a few times, and sank into the sea.
There was silence on the shore.
"Admiral Wen, how do you understand its meaning?"
The man in the sun hat asked dully: "Do you also understand mermaid language like the popular masked anchor recently?"
"No, I only understand my mermaid."
"..."
It's as if your mermaids are not mermaids.

"Professor, the grooming tester is ready."
In the monitoring room, Professor Yin's subordinate reported: "Are there any mermaids with extraordinary grooming abilities among the participating mermaids? Why did you borrow the most sophisticated tester?"
"Come and see." Professor Yin answered irrelevantly.
The subordinate stepped forward and looked at the monitoring screen along Professor Yin's line of sight.
More monitors than normal were installed for this grooming competition, and most of them were aimed at the same mermaid.
Professor Yin pointed at Mu Mu in the sea and asked, "What do you think about this blue mermaid?"
The subordinate said honestly, "The curve of its body when it jumps out of the water is absolutely beautiful. The Mermaid Center can hold a mermaid beauty pageant."
"Not in this aspect." Professor Yin's fake smile faded a little, "Do you think it has any special abilities?"
"Yes!"
The subordinate said decisively: "I have heard of a kind of underwater creature that can make a confusing song and lure the crew to the deep sea.
Now, almost everyone on the shore is watching it, just like the magical power of that creature."
Professor Yin's eyes were deep: "Mermaid?"
The subordinate nodded repeatedly.
Professor Yin: "How did you get this information?"
Is there an insider? Or did someone decipher the ancient book before him?
The subordinate recalled: "When I was a child, my grandma told me a fairy tale before bed."
"..." Professor Yin's smile completely disappeared, "Don't say unfounded words in front of me."
The subordinate wiped off the cold sweat and said: "Look at the shape of this mermaid's mouth, it really looks like singing!"
During the surveillance, Mu Mu seemed to be in a good mood, his mouth opened and closed, and his fins swayed with the rhythm.
Professor Yin turned on the computer and recorded carefully:
the singing of the mermaids may have a confusing effect.
"Next, I will turn on the monitoring microphone." Professor Yin instructed his subordinates, "After hearing the singing, if you feel that your thinking has become sluggish, remind each other immediately."
The subordinates were in a serious state of mind and pinched their palms: "Okay, try to stay awake!"
The two of them prepared themselves mentally and solemnly turned on the monitoring microphone-
"Ah~Ah~Gu~"
It was not until the singing entered their ears that they realized that they were not mentally prepared enough.
It was terrible!
Every pitch was like an erratic bubble, exploding at the wrong time.
It simply polluted its timbre.
"Is this...really singing?" The subordinate shook his head, as if to pour out the song he heard. "It can't confuse people. The more I listen, the clearer I feel."
Professor Yin listened patiently for a while: "This melody..."
"You can still hear the melody?" The subordinate was shocked. "It's out of tune. It's not the legendary mermaid. It should be an ordinary mermaid."
"It's mysterious if you can't hear the melody. Don't take it lightly." Professor Yin reminded.
"Huh? This song--"
A person passing by heard it from behind and looked over curiously:
"Is it the theme song of the recent super bloody love drama? Who hums it so badly!"
Professor Yin: ...
Subordinate: An ordinary socialized mermaid.
