Chapter 9



The two people who came to pick us up have arrived. They are wearing diving suits, carrying oxygen tanks and wearing masks on their faces.

One of the humans presented a wine glass to Su Su and asked him to drink it, saying that it was a farewell drink and was also a custom of mermaid marriage.

The wine in the glass is very viscous and will not melt in the sea water. It is more like jelly than wine. After drinking it, it tastes a bit spicy and refreshing like mint.

It was the first time that Su Su tasted something other than seafood. Although it was very spicy and a bit bitter, it was not delicious, but it was an interesting experience. If he had not been concerned about maintaining his image, he would probably have asked the other party to have another cup.

"Please follow me." The human tied a rope around Su Su's wrist and led him towards the shuttle.

Su Su paid close attention to the movements around him. There were only two humans escorting him, which made his escape much easier.

After sending Su Su away, the maids immediately went to the place where Yi Qing often met the killer whales, but they didn't see anyone. They searched the area for a while, but still found nothing. Finally, they found the place where the killer whales were lurking. Surrounded by a group of killer whales, they found Pang Pang and the mermaid princess who was carefully protecting him and was transforming.

The maid tried to explain the current situation to Fatty as much as possible. But the young killer whale was wary of mermaids. Fatty didn't trust them at all. He believed that these bad mermaids must want to trick Yi Qing back and marry her to some human. Although he didn't quite understand what a marriage was, it was something that would make his little mermaid sad.

He even detained the maids who came to report the news and asked them to help look after the sleeping Yiqing.

The mermaid maids were anxious because they thought of Su Su who was waiting for them, but no matter how they explained to the killer whale, it was useless. The stubborn young killer whale didn't listen to them.

At this time, Su Su didn't know that there was a flaw in his plan.

This trip was quite long, and in order to prevent himself from being discovered as a fake, Su Su leaned back in his chair and pretended to sleep the entire time, waiting for the shuttle to arrive at the agreed rendezvous point, which was also the most suitable place for him to escape.

Tiger sharks are naturally endowed with positioning capabilities comparable to those of GPS. Combined with Su Su's superior mental perception, he can outline the shuttle's route in his mind even without opening his eyes.

The shuttle passed through two narrow submarine mountain ranges and entered an underwater cave. The exit of this complex maze was the meeting point agreed upon by Su Su and the maids.

The shuttle entered the cave and felt a human approaching.

He stayed beside him for a while and said to the other human respectfully, "Mr. Bai, it looks like the medicine has taken effect. He is already fast asleep."

I fell asleep. Are you talking about yourself? What medicine?

Su Su thought while pretending to sleep.

The man called Mr. Bai responded, "I'm going to take off my clothes. Please pay attention to your surroundings."

Su Su felt two hands touching the belt around his waist.

Wait, what? Take off your clothes? Take off... mine?

Although he didn't know what the other party was going to do, taking off his clothes would mean exposing his identity. Su Su couldn't just sit there and wait for death.

Su Su turned over nimbly and pulled off the ribbon around his eyes with his hands.

When he showed his face, the other party paused for a moment.

"You are not asleep... You are not Yiqing? You are..." The visitor's eyes were fixed on Su Su.

The only answer he got was a fish tail with hard scales but strong flexibility.

Su Su will never show mercy to those who are judged to be enemies.

Although Su Su was wearing a long dress with a train, it did not affect his blow, which was fast and heavy. The opponent was hit by him and flew out, and hit the wall directly, and it seemed that he was seriously injured.

"Mr. Bai!" The other person was a little flustered when he saw this.

"Retreat first." Mr. Bai gestured to the people behind him.

The man immediately pulled Mr. Bai up, pressed the control button, opened the door and left.

After repelling the enemy, Su Su breathed a sigh of relief. All that was left was to wait for the shuttle to arrive at the agreed location and meet up with Yi Qing.

Su Su sat back in the chair and lay there for a while, when suddenly he felt extremely sleepy.

The drug in the wine took effect. His tiger shark bloodline made him more resistant to poison than ordinary mermaids, but it only delayed the effect for a short while.

Unable to resist the intense sleepiness, he closed his eyes and fell into a deep dream.

The shuttle's door slowly closed, and it continued to speed along its predetermined trajectory.

When Su Su opened his eyes, he was no longer in the sea. He found himself in a huge fish tank with transparent glass on all sides. It was bigger than the one he was on the boat last time, and was about ten meters long and wide.

Su Su turned around on the spot. This was definitely not anywhere in the sea. He had already reached the land.

He remembered that he was asleep at the time, and according to the agreement, Yiqing and the maid should have come to find him, but now it seems that either the maid did not find Yiqing in time, or something went wrong during the pick-up. In short, the plan failed.

Realizing this, Su Su was half excited and half panicked.

He was excited because, after all, he had finally arrived in the human world he had been waiting for for a long time. However, he was also frightened because, after all, he had not yet turned into a mermaid, and it would be disastrous if he was exposed.

Fortunately, there was no one around, and Su Su gradually calmed down. He lowered his head to check his condition.

He was still in his mermaid form, with his veil and dress still on. Only the ribbon on his eyes was missing, which he must have torn off during the battle.

Su Su breathed a sigh of relief.

So far, it seems that he has not revealed his true colors.

But the scales on his face gradually spread, and his fishtail extended from his waist to his chest. He no longer looked like a normal mermaid, but he still had to wait another month before taking the next dose of medicine.

"You're awake." The sudden electronic voice startled Su Su.

He swam around in the water and finally found the source of the sound: a metal ball with four legs.

Su Su had seen this in a textbook. It was called a robot. It was made by humans to assist them in their work and life.

It was the first time for Su Su to see the real thing. He curiously leaned on the edge of the pool, half of his body sticking out of the water, and knocked twice on the round body of the robot with his hands, trying to figure out how this pile of metal worked.

"Ding ding, don't hit me." The metal ball stepped back, covering its head and hiding where Su Su couldn't reach.

He adjusted the antenna on his head and stood up straight: "Dear guest, please allow me to introduce you. This is the residence of General Qi Hanyi. I am the third-generation housekeeper robot. My name is Xiaoyou, and I am the intelligent housekeeper of this house."

"The Admiral has received an emergency mission and will not be able to return home for a few days. You will stay here temporarily for the time being. If you need any food, you can tell Xiaoyou and Xiaoyou will prepare it for you."

Hearing about food, Su Su instantly forgot his worries. After a night of hard work, he was really hungry.

"Ah——" Su Su just wanted to order a seafood buffet for himself, but when he opened his mouth, he found that he had not learned to speak yet.

To Su Su, vocal cords are an unfamiliar organ. Learning how to speak with vocal cords is much more difficult than communicating with mental power.

But Xiaoyou was still waiting for his instructions and gave him friendly reminders from time to time.

"It is detected that you are now in a hungry state. It is recommended to eat. Please tell Xiaoyou what food you need..."

"I have detected that you are extremely hungry. It is recommended that you eat immediately. Please tell Xiaoyou what food you need..."

"Detected..."

"Fish!" After spending half a day, Su Su finally uttered the first word of his life with difficulty using his vocal cords under the strong desire to survive.

"Do you want to eat fish?" The red light in Xiaoyou's eyes flashed.

"Um!"

"Okay, then what kind of fish do you want to eat? Steamed or braised?" Xiao You continued to ask.

Su Su: “…”

It takes a while for Su Su to get used to it. He said, "It's all...it's all fine."

"Okay, this is prepared for you." Xiao You finally left with Su Su's order. Half an hour later, Su Su smelled a strange mixture of fragrances, and Su Su swallowed unconsciously.

Xiao You pushed a double-decker cart to the edge of the fish pond. The height of the cart top was just level with the top of the pond. Xiao You opened the lids one by one and introduced them, "The kitchen has prepared steamed sea bass, braised Spanish mackerel, boiled fish, chopped pepper fish head, stinky mandarin fish and sashimi for you. I hope you like them."

The food was served on exquisite trays, and each dish exuded an enticing aroma.

Su Su had seen the unique cooking methods of humans in textbooks, but he never thought that he would be able to taste them himself one day. He originally thought that when he came to the human world, just like that day in the pond, eating some live fish would be the pinnacle of sashimi.

Su Su picked up the chopsticks in a clumsy manner, following the instructions in the textbook. His new fingers were not up to the task of such a complicated operation, and the chopsticks fell to the ground with a clatter.

Using a spoon was much easier. Su Su grasped the spoon handle in his palm, scooped out the fish meat from the plate like shoveling soil, and put it into his mouth.

Hmm!

After just one bite, Su Su was amazed by the food on the plate.

Soon, the skills of using a loose spoon could no longer satisfy Su Su's craving for food. He grabbed the food on the plate with his hands and ate it in large chunks.

Except for the sashimi which tasted almost the same as before, every other dish tasted like nothing he had ever tasted before.

It was delicious, even better than the best yellowfin tuna he had ever eaten. Su Su used to think that the purpose of food was to fill the stomach, provide energy, and allow oneself to survive. But now he discovered that eating can also become a kind of enjoyment.

He didn't have to fight with anyone for the food. All the food lay quietly in front of him, waiting for him to taste it. Although they were all fish, each one had a completely different aroma.

Su Su's favorite here is boiled fish. Although it is so spicy that it makes his eyes cry and his tongue hurts, he still can't stop eating it.

Su Su ate up all the food on the table, licking even the plate clean. Finally, he burped contentedly and dived back into the water.

The robot did not comment on Su Su's strange eating habits. It waited quietly for him to finish eating, cleaned up the plate and left.

Except for meals, Xiaoyou will not show up at other times.

During the time, Xiao You gave Su Su a chip, which was very similar to the "textbook" Su Su had received before. It could be turned on by touching the button, and it could be used even in water.

Su Su opened the chip and a virtual projection appeared in front of him.

Unlike textbooks that can be logged in directly, the first page after this chip is turned on is the user registration page, and the top says Virtual Network Service Port (Mermaid Protocol Version)

Registration information was not a problem for Su Su, as he had already learned how to read and spell characters in textbooks.

At that time, Su Su didn't know that people had the habit of using nicknames and virtual identities to go online, so he honestly entered his information when registering.

Username: [Su Su]

Age: [18]

Gender: [Male]

After filling out a bunch of information, Su Su finally completed the registration and entered the network. The content here is much more interesting than Su Su's textbook chip. There are games and e-sports, forum chats, animations and movies, and live broadcasts. It's like Su Su has opened the door to a new world.

Su Su followed the newcomer's lead and entered the forum. Hundreds of eye-catching titles came into view.

《A must-read for newbies: A guide to posting on the Mermaid Forum.》

"Help, my tail is going to be bald, sisters, do you have any good scale oil to recommend to me? ! "

"Sharing my experience: three sentences cost me 180,000 yuan."

"Help, I've fallen in love with the paralyzed sea turtle in the fish tank next to mine. What should I do?"

Su Su couldn't understand it, but he was deeply shocked.
