Mermaid Town
After realizing that they could not get any information from Yu Qing, everyone stopped wasting their breath and fell silent.
No one spoke for a moment.
On the way from the cafeteria to the hotel, as expected, I met a lot of cheating mermaids.
The players are still unable to adapt to these mermaids. Although they are all beautiful in appearance and very good-looking, as soon as they see the two halves of the fish tail under their skirts when they walk, it will evoke not-so-pleasant memories for everyone.
It is a little past seven o'clock, not even eight yet. The sun has risen very high, and the originally cool light has become somewhat hot.
The town also became lively, with shops opening and various commodity stalls lined up on both sides of the street, adding a touch of ordinary life.
The cheating mermaids blend in perfectly, with an eerie harmony that gives people the illusion that they should have lived with humans.
But the players still felt uncomfortable.
It seemed as if countless invisible gazes were secretly cast over to them, but when they turned their heads to look, the burning prying gazes would disappear.
Everyone felt uneasy and uncomfortable.
And they found something very strange: there were only adults along the way, and not a single child.
Not only on the street, there were no children in the cafeteria just now.
Since entering the game, the player has not seen any children in the town, only adults.
Even those mermaids who cheat are all adult mermaids, there are no little mermaids.
This is obviously not normal.
And the mayor of Mermaid Town also said before that there are no little mermaids in Mermaid Town yet.
Lin Xingchi hugged Gu Lin tightly. Other players might not feel it so strongly, but he could feel that the prying eyes were even more eager when they were staring at the little ball in his arms.
When those people saw Gu Lin, their eyes would brighten up with an abnormal brilliance.
The way these people looked at Gu Lin was very similar to a certain group in reality - human traffickers.
Lin Xingchi's whole body was tense. Tuanzi was cute, and might be the only child in this weird town.
He must be extremely alert and be careful not to let anyone here snatch the child away.
I walked two streets but still hadn't reached the hotel.
The scarred man had very little patience and could not help but speak in a rough voice: "Fuck, why the hell hasn't it arrived yet? How long will it take for it to arrive?"
The scarred man was used to swearing, so Yu Qing stopped smiling and his tone was not as friendly as before, but he still answered him: "Just cross this street."
This time, even Yu Rong, who had been silent all this time, couldn't help but turn his head to look at the scarred man. His eyes were cold and lifeless.
The scarred man didn't dare to offend the NPC. He swallowed his saliva unconsciously and shut his mouth.
When I was about to turn the corner, a little mermaid came towards me from the corner in front.
Everyone's attention was immediately attracted by the mermaid.
This mermaid looks very young. Judging from human age, she is only seventeen or eighteen years old at most, with a childish face.
It has cold white skin, very delicate features, and deep, azure blue eyes.
This mermaid is more beautiful than all the mermaids I have seen before, so beautiful that it is dazzling.
The moment everyone saw it, they were so dazzled that they couldn't even recover from the shock.
What is even more eye-catching is that it is actually riding an electric scooter. The fishtail hidden under its skirt is not like the split tails of the mermaids we have seen before. Its fishtail is not only beautiful, with a light golden luster in the sun, but it is also a complete and flawless fishtail.
“…”
Everyone exchanged glances, each with different thoughts and complex emotions fluctuating in their eyes.
Yu Qing stopped when he saw the other person. A smile appeared on his face again, and his tone became gentle again. He took the initiative to greet the mermaid: "Zhuang Mu, are you going to the hospital?"
Even the taciturn Yu Rong took the initiative to greet it.
The mermaid named Zhuang Mu also stopped. It just glanced at the eight players lightly without showing anything. When its eyes swept over Gu Lin, it paused for a second and then looked away as if nothing had happened.
It looked at Yu Qing, a smile appeared on its beautiful face, and its voice was clear and pleasant: "Yes, the Mermaid Festival is coming soon, and the hospital is quite busy these days."
Yu Qing nodded and said, "Yes, the day after tomorrow is the Mermaid Festival. Doctor Yu should be very busy."
Zhuang Mu looked even better when he smiled. He said, "Yes, no one is busier than Dr. Yu. He has been working overtime these days."
This mermaid boy was wearing a white shirt with his sleeves slightly rolled up. On his snow-white and slender arms were engraved a string of numbers, with only two numbers showing: 34.
There were a few more numbers behind it, but before everyone could see clearly, Zhuang Mu seemed to have noticed everyone's gaze and calmly lowered his sleeves, covering his entire arm.
After a brief chat, Zhuang Mu had to rush to the hospital, so he didn't say anything more. After saying goodbye to Yu Qing and Yu Rong, he rode away on his scooter.
Since Zhuang Mu appeared, the players have been silent and overly quiet.
Everyone has a question in their mind: why is this mermaid boy different from other mermaids?
Its tail is so complete!
The reason why it rides a scooter instead of walking is probably because of its fish tail.
Other split-legged mermaids can imitate humans by walking on two legs because of their split tails. Although the movements are awkward, they can still walk.
But for this mermaid with an intact tail, it is obviously too difficult to do that kind of action and it cannot do it.
Also, what do the numbers on his arm mean?
It felt like some kind of number. When they looked at it, it covered itself up vigilantly. It was obviously not simple.
Moreover, they found that other cheating mermaids were also wearing long sleeves with their arms not exposed. They wondered if other mermaids had such numbers on their arms.
This mermaid said he was going to the hospital. Is he working in the hospital?
The mermaids here can all serve as social workers to a certain extent, and apparently this mermaid is one of them.
Everyone was watching Zhuang Mu riding away on his scooter.
Only Gu Lin's eyes were bright from the moment Zhuang Mu appeared. He was not looking at the little mermaid brother, but staring at his scooter.
Seeing the little mermaid riding his scooter and disappearing around the corner, he lowered his head, looking a little disappointed.
9527: [Little anchor, do you also want to ride a scooter? 】
Gu Lin nodded vigorously: [Yeah, baby wants to ride a bike too! 】
He's never ridden a scooter like this before, and it looks like fun!
After saying that, without waiting for 9527 to say anything, Gu Lin continued: [But I am still too young, and that bike is too high. I can’t even reach it when I stand on it, how can I ride it? 】
9527: [……]
If you can’t even ride it, don’t even think about how to ride it for now, little anchor.
The rest of the journey was eerily silent.
Finally, someone couldn't help but ask, "That little mermaid guy just now..."
Everyone quietly shifted their attention over and listened carefully to the player's question.
Because they were also very interested in the mermaid boy just now and wanted to know what was going on with his fish tail.
As a result, the next second, the baby voice suddenly interrupted again: "Where did you buy the scooter?"
Player: “…”
Yu Qing and Yu Rong: "..."
Everyone saw that when Gu Lin opened his mouth, Yu Qing staggered and almost fell on the spot.
Yu Rong was relatively steady, but his back was noticeably stiff.
All the players felt as if their eyes were going dark, and they were just about to get oxygen by pinching their Ren Zhong.
You little kid, don't interrupt at the critical moment!
No normal person could resist such a little baby. Even the mayor of Mermaid Town, whose old face as dry as tree bark could become a little kinder when facing this little baby. Yu Qing, who was so good-tempered, could not resist it even more.
Yu Qing's smile was more sincere, no longer superficial, and she turned around and looked at him: "I'll ask him for you later."
The players looked at his dark face that looked old and not young:...
elder brother?
How can I say this with such nerve?
Gu Lin thanked him politely, looked at Yu Qing, tilted his head, thought about the appropriate name for him, and said in a baby voice: "Thank you, Uncle Black Face."
Players: “…”
Auntie in the live broadcast room: "..."
Hahahahahahahahahahahaha what the hell! !
Uncle Black Face, don’t be too outrageous!
It turns out that sincerity is the ultimate skill!
Yu Qing, who received 10,000 critical hits: "..."
Even Yu Rong, who had been silent all the way, couldn't help but burst out laughing, but he quickly stopped, but everyone heard it clearly.
Hearing this laugh, everyone almost broke down and quickly thought about the saddest thing in their lives. Some even deliberately stared at the ugly tail of the mermaid cheating on the roadside, trying to use scaring to repel the laughter.
Look at those ugly mermaids who can suck people’s brains. Can you still laugh?
Lin Xingchi hugged Gu Lin, his shoulders shaking with laughter.
Everyone else was holding back their laughter, so Gu Lin couldn't feel it, but he was held in Lin Xingchi's arms, and he could feel Lin Xingchi's shoulders shaking with laughter.
Gu Lin patted him with his little hand, and the kid sighed: "Big brother, stop laughing, or I'll fall down!"
Lin Xingchi: “…”
Others: "Hahahahahaha... look at that mermaid's tail, it looks like a pair of scissors."
"Yeah, it seems like that, so funny hahaha!"
Yu Qing: “…………”
Oh shit!
Live broadcast room:
[Hahahaha, I also laughed to death]
[This round of players are a bit naughty because of Zi Zi, Yu Qing's face is even darker]
[No, that must be your eyes playing tricks on you. His face can’t get any darker.]
[Hahahaha, what's wrong with the player Xiaoxiao? If it were you, wouldn’t you laugh? 】
[That guy definitely laughed louder than them hahahaha]
The world is complete where everyone is laughing and Yu Qing is the only one who is hurt.
*
The rest of the journey was in silence, and no one dared to speak, for fear that they would burst out laughing uncontrollably.
Yu Qing is only twenty-five this year. Although this age is appropriate for Gu Lin to call him uncle, uncle is still uncle, and he is a black-faced uncle at that!
But you know what, this is really apt. It's true that children are best at grasping the key points.
Perhaps to divert attention, Yu Qing looked at the player who asked the question earlier and abruptly returned to the previous topic: "What did you want to say just now?"
Although it was awkward, the effect was obvious and everyone's attention was drawn back.
Everyone was very interested in the mermaid, especially its complete fish tail.
The player who spoke earlier swallowed and said the second half of the sentence: "...Why is she so beautiful?"
Everyone: “…”
Damn, you really don't know how to grasp the key points, but you are not as good as a two-year-old cub!
However, everyone was also very interested in this.
That mermaid was indeed incredibly beautiful.
Not only is the fishtail light blonde, but the waist-length hair is also light blonde. There is also a long and thin braid on both sides of the temples, which are pinned behind the ears.
This is a mermaid who is not only exquisite and beautiful, but also pays attention to dressing up.
It can also ride a scooter and is very polite and confident. It speaks to Yu Qing in a neither humble nor arrogant manner, with no inferiority complex among species at all.
It is as if in its concept, it is not inferior to humans, but an equal species with no distinction between superiority and inferiority.
Yu Qing's attitude towards it is also one of equality, without any discrimination at all. He is even more enthusiastic and respectful than towards them, the players.
Humans are sensory animals. They don’t know whether this mermaid is given preferential treatment because she is particularly beautiful.
Yu Qing was silent for a long time before smiling and saying, "Of course, Zhuang Mu is the second most beautiful mermaid in our Mermaid Town. She was the champion in last year's Mermaid Festival."
Yu Qing’s words surprised everyone again.
She is so beautiful, but she is still the second most beautiful?
So how beautiful can the most beautiful person be?
Song Ran did not miss the opportunity to ask: "Who is the most beautiful mermaid?"
Yu Qing did not answer this question, but paused, turned around and smiled at everyone: "We have arrived at the hotel."
“…”
When everyone looked up, they saw an ordinary hotel in front of them.
It says on it - Mermaid Hotel.
