"What's wrong? Didn't you promise to help me?" Belle stopped in her tracks, looking back at Lin Hu with a puzzled expression.
There was also some discontent; in the eyes of these mermaids, lies were unforgivable.
Because in a certain famous picture book, there is a mermaid who, because of a human's lie, makes a deal with a witch and ends up turning into sea foam.
"Helping others requires a plan to be implemented." Lin Hu ignored the other person's temper and led them into the house first, as the sun outside was too strong.
Upon entering the house, Lin Hu was immediately struck by the several bags of pearls on the coffee table.
Wow!
After shooing Ao Jinjin and Boss Zhou aside and making room for them, Lin Hu finally spoke under Belle's anxious yet puzzled gaze: "Tell me the situation in detail first, and I'll see how I can help."
Belle was a little anxious, but she still explained slowly: "At first, there were black merfolk attacking other merfolk in the underwater city. After being driven out by the king, I was assigned to deal with the damaged enemy. In the ruins, I found the bandage that Wenxi often tied to his arm."
Because of the black merman's actions, the king decided to strangle him.
When Belle mentioned the bandage, she took it out and handed it to Lin Hu to see.
Lin Hu took it; it was black lace trim. It looked somewhat familiar, but there were so many lace pieces in the world, it was normal for them to look similar, so he didn't think much of it.
After handing the straps back to Belle, Lin Hu finally spoke: "Do you know where the black merfolk are?"
“Yes, the King already knows that we’re leaving tomorrow, which is why I came to find you now,” Belle explained, her face filled with undisguised admiration as she spoke of the Mermaid King.
"Did you tell your king that you would take me with you?"
Lin Hu felt a little scared when he heard about the underwater city. He remembered that there was no light in the deep sea, and what if he went there and couldn't come back?
People are always afraid of the unknown, and the Mermaid King was the unknown to him.
“I did, and I also mentioned the potion. Otherwise, the King wouldn’t have allowed anyone in the team to leave without permission before they set off.” Belle knew Lin Hu’s concerns and quickly explained.
"Our king is very approachable and a capable king."
Lin Hu: Approachable? I'm not one of his people...
Lin Hu was afraid that he would be caught off guard and end up sunbathing on the rocks.
