Mermaid Town
Gu Lin looked at the numerous mermaids in the glass wall and walked for a long time but still couldn't reach the end.
"Grandpa Mayor, why are there so many fish here?"
The mayor of Mermaid Town was already lost in the constant "Grandpa Mayor" calls. His old face smiled more and more kindly: "These are the exhibits of this year's Mermaid Festival. They are the latest mermaids transformed by Doctor Yu. The quality is much higher than in previous years. The last batch of mermaids should be completed before tomorrow night."
If it were another adult, he would probably break out in a cold sweat after hearing what the mermaid mayor said, but not Gu Lin. He would automatically filter out things that he was not interested in.
These mermaids are naked from the waist up. Naked, but in Gu Lin's eyes, the key parts were all mosaiced.
There are different numbers on each mermaid's arm. Gu Lin pointed with his little hand and counted along: "6, 5...6, huh? Why do these two 6s look different?"
The cub was confused, and his face looked thoughtful.
Why is one tail on top and the other on the bottom?
Mermaid Mayor: “…”
I watched Gu Lin pronounce 9 as 6, and he still dares to say he knows numbers?
At this time 9527 said: [Congratulations to the little anchor, you got the key clue and were rewarded with 3000 points! 】
Gu Lin was confused: [What clues? 】
9527: [……]
It finally understood that Gu Lin was just here to play.
9527: [Quest clues, these 3,000 points are obtained from leaving the hotel until now. 】
When he heard 9527 mention the mission, Gu Lin remembered that, yes, he also had to find Xiao Zhenzhu!
He also wants to find the little pearl and give it to his brother to prove his innocence!
With so many mermaids in front of me, there must be a lot of little pearls.
Gu Lin remembered that the mayor had said before that he would give him whatever he wanted, so he ran back to the mayor with his Ultraman backpack on his back.
He looked up at the mayor:
"Grandpa Mayor, what do you want, will you give it to me?"
He only remembered that the mayor said he would give him whatever he wanted, but he didn't remember that the prerequisite was that he had to stay and be his grandson.
The mermaid mayor's eyes lit up: "What do you want?"
He looked at him with encouragement and said, "If you have any requests, just ask boldly. Your mayor is listening."
Gu Lin: "I want a small pearl, Grandpa Mayor, can you give me a small pearl?"
The mermaid mayor was stunned: "..."
How come this happens all the time?
The mayor frowned: "What little pearl?"
Gu Lin pointed at the mermaid and said, "Yuyu's tears can turn into small pearls."
Mermaid Mayor: “…”
Before the mayor of Mermaid Town could say anything, another deep and cold voice sounded behind the two of them:
"These mermaids' tears cannot turn into pearls."
The two turned around and saw that Yu Youmian had arrived at the mermaid base at some point.
He was still wearing the same white coat and white gloves. He was tall, long-legged, handsome and cold. His gold-rimmed glasses reflected a faint blue light.
That was the blue solution reflected in the glass wall.
When he saw Yu Youmian, the mayor of Mermaid Town remembered the button that the kid had poked into with his finger before, and raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why is Doctor Yu coming down here too?"
After a pause, he asked, "How did you get in?"
Yu Youmian glanced at him calmly: "Fingerprint."
Mermaid Mayor: “…”
Apparently, not only was it discovered that the key was broken, but it was also unusable.
The mermaid mayor hummed, feeling guilty.
Gu Lin looked at Yu Youmian in a white coat, still thinking about what he had just said, and called out in a baby voice, "Uncle Doctor."
Hearing this crisp and tender name, Yu Youmian was slightly startled, slowly lowered his eyes, and looked at the human cub in front of him.
He was usually serious and couldn't put on a friendly face at this moment, but his cold temperament was concealed without making a sound.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Gu Lin could only take the initiative to ask: "Uncle Doctor, why can't Yu Yu's tears turn into little pearls?"
Yu Youmian's gaze stayed on the cub for a while, then he looked away and looked at the mermaid in the glass wall.
His eyes were deep and his voice was calm: "Because these mermaids are all artificial fish, not real mermaids."
When the mermaid mayor saw Yu Youmian telling the little kid this, he just raised his eyebrows and didn't say anything to stop him, as if he didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
Gu Lin was confused: "Ah? Are these fish fake?"
Yu Youmian: “…”
Yu Youmian had never communicated with such a young child, and this was not his area of expertise, so he looked at the mermaid mayor who was just standing there with his hands behind his back and not interrupting.
The mermaid mayor looked like he was enjoying a show, with a playful expression on his face.
The mayor of the mermaid town did not speak. Yu Youmian looked at the cub who was still looking at him obediently and waiting for an answer, and said thoughtfully:
"These cheating mermaids are all synthetic, that is, artificial fish. But there are also real mermaids. The first artificial fish was successfully transformed using the serum of a real mermaid.
"It's just that as time goes by, the serum concentration is getting lower and lower. The mermaids now only retain a few genes and can't be considered real mermaids. Therefore, the tail will only last for a short time, and the tears can no longer turn into pearls."
Not to mention Gu Lin, even the mayor of Mermaid Town frowned after hearing this.
Mayor Mermaid: "Doctor Yu, maybe you should look carefully. The person standing in front of you is just a kid who is at most two years old and can't even count."
Yu Youmian: “…”
Gu Lin spoke up for himself: "Grandpa Mayor, kid, you know how to count!"
Mermaid Mayor: “…”
Gu Lin indeed did not quite understand what Yu Youmian said, but fortunately the boy was very good at grasping the key points and immediately caught the main point of the speech - there are real mermaids.
Gu Lin: "Uncle Doctor, where is the real Yuyu?"
Yu Youmian pushed his gold-rimmed glasses and said, "He is too cunning by nature, so..."
"Hidden."
The mermaid mayor remained silent throughout the whole process. At this time, he stretched out his hand to the little boy.
Gu Lin also obediently held out his little hand.
Mayor Mermaid squeezed his grandson's soft little hand, raised his eyebrows and looked at Yu Youmian: "Isn't there a mermaid in Doctor Yu's secret room? Since we are here, why don't we go and take a look together?"
Gu Lin echoed in a baby voice: "Yes, I'm here now!"
Yu Youmian: “…”
Gu Lin's echo made the mermaid mayor couldn't help laughing out loud, and the lines on the old tree bark deepened with his laughter.
He bent down and picked up the baby.
Gu Lin obediently let himself be carried. He was already tired from walking and was hungry, so he couldn’t walk anymore!
Yu Youmian said, “The mermaid in the secret room is not open to the public.”
The mermaid mayor raised his eyebrows even higher: "Is there anything that this little guest cannot see?"
Gu Lin nodded his little head and agreed again: "Yes, is there anything that the baby can't see?"
Yu Youmian: “…”
Everyone in the live broadcast room almost died of laughter.
[An old man and a young man, one singing in harmony, are they performing a duet? [Dog head]
[Haha ...
[Doctor Yu was completely speechless hahahaha]
[Yes, is there anything that the baby can’t see? 】
[Zizai’s clue points are over 3,000, which reminds me of the five friends who slept in the hotel for a whole morning. Without you, Zizai’s points would have increased dramatically after he acted alone.]
[Hahahaha, there’s no need to send a child to humiliate someone]
Yu Youmian had great concentration and turned around first, completely unmoved:
"Zhuang Mu has already prepared the food. I came down to call you to eat."
After saying that, he left on his own, ignoring the mermaid mayor's request to open the secret room.
After being rejected, the mermaid mayor did not react at all, as if he had already expected that the show would not be successful.
When he heard about eating, Gu Lin's attention was immediately diverted. In his eyes, nothing was more important than eating, and he didn't want to look at the fish in the secret room.
"Grandpa Mayor, let's go eat. My little tummy is starving!"
The elder of Mermaid Town is still in good health. He can hold a baby with one hand, and his figure is as straight as a pine tree, without any sign of hunchbacked old age.
Until that grandma's voice: "Grandpa Mayor, run——"
"?"
The tall figure of the mermaid mayor suddenly became hunched.
