Jiang Shuyin thought for a moment: "I'm going ashore, how is he going to follow me?"
Chunhua smiled and said, "After the merfolk come ashore, their tails will split into legs, so you don't need to worry about that."
Jiang Shu sighed.
Chunhua lowered her expression: "If I have made you feel uncomfortable, I would like to take back what I just said, but Alvin will still follow in your footsteps. I really can't rest easy about him being all alone abroad. I'm sorry."
Alvin heard it clearly, and continued to smile gently, though his eyes were listless.
Jiang Shuyin's sigh was not a sign of refusal.
She emphasized, "I can have Alvin come along, but he must be bound by human social systems, knowing what he can and cannot do."
Chunhua smiled and readily agreed: "He doesn't understand these things, but he will definitely listen to you. I'll have to trouble you to teach him."
She nudged her younger brother toward Jiang Shuyin and said, "Then I'll leave it to you. We still need to find a suitable place to live. Goodbye."
The gentle smile that appeared as he turned around was actually seen on the face of that dignified clan leader.
Jiang Shuyin was lost in thought for a moment, then smiled as well.
They are truly free.
The water rippled gently. Jiang Shuyin looked at the big trouble that had been shoved into her eyes. Her azure eyes, curved in the sunlight, were gilded with a golden light and sparkled.
She lifted his long hair: "This color is too eye-catching. Would you mind if I dyed it a different color for you?"
Alvin: "I don't mind, but I won't dye it."
"Hmm." Jiang Shuyin pondered for a moment and said, "I'll help you. Let's go ashore and find a supermarket now."
She gave directions, and Alvin pulled her along as they swam very fast.
Half an hour later, we arrived at a relatively shallow area.
This place was originally a port of Country M, a metropolis on par with the capital. The tallest landmark building at that time is now just its rooftop above the water.
Jiang Shuyin stopped, looked around for a while, then grabbed Alvin's hand and dived underwater.
Found it!
A global chain of supermarkets.
It's not far away.
She pointed, and Alvin understood.
The supermarket doors were open, and the goods on the shelves inside were floating in water, making it look like a large, messy garbage dump.
The space is very crowded and complicated, so be careful not to get hit by things while swimming.
Walmart supermarkets are larger than regular supermarkets, averaging several square meters, and offer a wide variety of goods, from clothing, fabrics, medicines, and jewelry to auto parts, small yachts, and more.
Like most supermarkets, there are food items displayed at the entrance, mostly snacks.
Jiang Shuyin took a bag of rainbow candies, tore open a small opening, and gave one to Alvin.
He was somewhat flattered and took it to look at it.
Small red granules.
Jiang Shu pointed a finger at his lips, and he understood.
Put the small particles in your mouth and wrap them with your tongue.
The sweetness spread from her tongue to her entire mouth, and the merman's blue eyes slowly widened.
Then she bent down, smiling sweetly, and said, "So sweet."
Jiang Shuyin gave him the remaining bag and continued walking inside.
These goods were all flooded; it would be a waste if she didn't take them.
She collected everything edible into her spatial storage, but space was limited, so she only took one of each item.
She couldn't understand the foreign language written on the packaging, which was as beautiful as a flower.
She casually put some of the strange and unusual foods away, intending to study them later.
"If you see something you want, put it in your space. We can only take it if there's no one here. If there are people here, we'll have to buy it with money, understand?"
Alvin listened to everything she said, nodding as his deep blue hair danced like seaweed.
Jiang Shuyin glanced at it, wondering if the hair dye was next to the shampoo and conditioner products.
A supermarket that's too big isn't good either; the view is blocked by floating items, and you can't even see what's on the shelves on both sides.
As she swam along, Jiang Shuyin also collected a non-stick pan, a tempered glass bowl, an electric kettle, and a thickened washbasin.
Considering that we've used up a lot of food at home, now is the perfect time to restock.
She wasn't sure if the rice that had been soaked in water was safe to eat, so she only took the vacuum-packed rice of various colors.
Grab all kinds of rice, including white rice, millet, red rice, purple rice, and those rich in selenium and iron.
Peanut oil, camellia oil, corn oil, olive oil, soybean oil—I want them all.
I took two sacks of salt, which were repackaged, with about a thousand small packets in each sack.
She planned to check the warehouse for soy sauce; there were 100L bottles. She also took all the sauces from the condiment section, even the salad dressing.
The supermarket had more liquor than tea, so she bought all the liquor, especially the high-proof liquor, which could be used as alcohol and was very practical.
After clearing away the floating debris, I finally saw the toiletries.
I need to grab some shampoo and shower gel; after a mission, I'll be covered in all sorts of grime.
Oh right, a protein-removing laundry detergent can clean blood stains off clothes.
The shelves were all emptied, but I couldn't find any hair dye.
Could it be that she's thinking wrong and should have gone to the cosmetics section?
Jiang Shuyin quickened her pace and circled the surrounding area.
I finally found hair dye in the cosmetics section. Various brands and colors were displayed in front of me.
She asked Alvin, "What color do you want to dye your hair?"
Alvin looked at her long, black hair: "I just want to be like you."
Jiang Shuyin glanced at it: "Then put this whole row into your space."
As they were about to leave, passing by the jewelry section, Alvin dashed over like an arrow, picked up a string of pearls, and played with it in his hand: "So beautiful, are there merfolk here too?"
The pearls on the merman's wrist reflected a subtle, lustrous light, adding an elegant touch that suited him perfectly.
"I really like it, can I take it with me?"
Alvin watched intently.
