Chapter 1683 1691 [Mermaid bravely saves the thief] Ask for monthly votes ()
The translucent mermaid floated beside Kidd and yawned. She was boredly thinking about how slow humans were at swimming, and when she turned around, she suddenly found that the thief was gone.
The mermaid was startled, her eyes fell on the string of bubbles on the water: "?"
...It was agreed that the Phantom Thief would never admit defeat.
She also wanted to see the fighting spirit of today's young people, but this is the result?
The mermaid sighed, shook her head, and dove into the water.
…
Kidd paddled hard, but still sank. Just when he thought that he would appear in the news as "Kudo Shinichi's corpse" next time, his arm suddenly tightened.
In the dim night, a hand grabbed him, pulled him out of the water, and then dragged him forward.
“Cough cough cough!”
Kidd was choked and dizzy. After a while, his blurry vision gradually returned to normal.
Then he found that he was actually rescued - this hero who fell from the sky was holding him with one hand and paddling with the other. Although he was not paddling very seriously, he swam so fast that it made him feel like he was dreaming.
He looked to the side in the dim moonlight and was surprised to see that the rescuer was not "the lifeguard who happened to pass by" as he had imagined, but a slender woman.
The waves that had just caused him great obstacles were particularly gentle in front of this woman, just like a group of licking dogs supporting her forward. Kidd also benefited from this and did not have to continue to struggle with the sea water painfully.
Kidd's eyes moved slightly and fell on the woman's face. Seeing the vague outline clearly, his face turned red: "..." So beautiful.
but……
Why does it seem familiar?
At this moment, a wave of water happened to surge past, and the hair on the woman's side was brushed away by the current. Kidd suddenly saw a glittering light in his sight. His sight froze, and he saw a crystal-like scale beside the woman's ear, quietly lying on her fair skin.
There are not many scales, just two or three independent ones. At first glance, they look like a crystal earring that has been wetted by water and stuck to the face.
Very beautiful. But Kidd's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and then he discovered that this "benefactor" seemed to have sharper ears than normal people, like an elf, with clear ocean ornaments hanging on the edges.
...This beautiful but gaudy, yet somewhat mysterious accessory suddenly reminded Kidd of the Mist Tengu flying around in complicated ancient costumes.
and……
Kidd: “…”
He was very afraid of fish, and even more afraid of fish scales. Fortunately, the thing next to the woman's ear looked more like a gem than those fishy scales. But this did not prevent Kidd from thinking of something because of the keyword "scales".
——This beautiful sister swims so fast.
Is this really human speed?
And this face, doesn't it look a little familiar?
A terrifying thought flashed through his mind. Kidd's eyes were stiff, and he moved back little by little. Just then a wave came, and a huge fish tail half the length of a person suddenly curved up behind the beauty. The beautiful streamlined tail gently slapped the water, and the two people jumped out a long way, getting closer and closer to the shore.
However, Kidd no longer cared about the coast. He felt as if he was poured with two buckets of bugs in a confined space, and his whole body suddenly stiffened.
...fish fish fish...fish!!
Help!!!
…
The mermaid was dragging the limp man forward. Suddenly, the dead fish-like man in her hand jerked up, shook off her hand, and swam desperately to the other side, as fast as if there were two motors installed on its arms, rumbling through the water and moving forward, apparently surpassing the limits of human beings.
The mermaid was startled, then nodded with satisfaction: This swimming speed is now more like a normal speed. It's a pity that his physical strength has kept up, but his brain is not so good - why is he swimming back? The coast is not over there.
Thinking of the energy cores that Kidd usually contributed, the mermaid dived into the water and chased after him without revealing her credit.
…
Kidd looked back and didn't see any trace of the fish, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
However, just as he turned his head, the heart that had just been relieved suddenly rose to the top of his head again - there was a person in front of him without him knowing, and the mermaid was swimming about one meter away from him, facing him.
The wet woman floated to the surface of the sea, raised her hand to tidy up her messy hair, slightly opened her red lips, and whispered something to him, her soft voice as tender as a siren.
As a gentleman thief, when Kidd sees this beautiful scene, even if he is surrounded by a group of police officers, he will always respond politely to leave a sufficiently elegant image.
However, now, thinking of the nightmarish fish tail under the beauty, he stayed for two seconds, and suddenly turned to the other side, accompanied by silent screams and shouts in his heart, and rushed out again at the speed of a yacht.
...Unfortunately, I still didn't swim in the right direction. This time I swam parallel to the coast, but I couldn't reach the shore even if I swam forever.
Mermaid: "..." I told him he was swimming the wrong way, why didn't he listen? It seems that magicians really can't understand ghosts. The difference in species really affects communication... Fortunately, in addition to dialogue, there is a very universal way of communication - body language.
She muttered as she easily caught up to Kid.
Then, before the other party turned around in fear again, he suddenly stabbed Kidd with a knife.
Afterwards, the mermaid picked up the dizzy thief with mosquito-stains in his eyes and dragged him to the shore conscientiously. She was very satisfied with the efficiency of the communication.
…
The mermaid's tail was not meant to kill people, and this time, there was not much clay that made up her, and the puppet's strength was not very high.
So it wasn't long before Kidd woke up.
He was floating in the waves, and he caught a glimpse of the woman next to him from the corner of his eye. He immediately closed his eyes again: “…” It was a nightmare. Such a big fish, it must be a nightmare!
Before he could sort out the confused thoughts in his mind, he suddenly felt a weight from behind and the mermaid pushed him ashore.
There was a splash of water breaking.
The nearby rescuers were immediately alarmed: "Who?! Did someone fall into the water? Where are you!"
Kidd's eyes were wide open, but he said nothing.
The flashlight flashed over quickly, and the rescuer ran closer and suddenly felt like there was something in the water. But when he looked closely, there was nothing there.
Perhaps it was the sound of waves crashing. Without giving it any further thought, the rescuers quickly carried the high school student who had fallen into the sea for unknown reasons away and took him back to the ambulance.
…
After Kidd got into the car and drove away from the coast, he finally woke up from the nightmare and breathed a sigh of relief.
Kidd: “…” Although he was very grateful to the mermaid who rescued him after he came to his senses, if it happened again… he would probably still choose to drown.
...Such a long fish tail, so long!
How could there be such a terrible thing in the world!
At this moment, wrapped in a thermal blanket, recalling the joy of flying in the air before, Kidd felt extremely complicated.
