Chapter 11 "Take it off." He kissed himself yesterday, and today he has to take it off...
It was too cold; the icy chill forced open Sang Li's lips and teeth, stealing her last breath.
Her chest no longer burned with pain; oxygen rushed into her body, and the cold touch gradually seeped in, spreading into her bones and blood.
Even his own blood seemed to have turned blue.
The aura was fierce and domineering, as if it wanted to tear her apart. Sang Li felt like a cake in someone else's hands, being eaten up piece by piece.
But she couldn't push the person in front of her away; he was her only lifeline.
Oxygen flowed in continuously, and He tightened his grip on her waist.
Her chin was being wantonly entangled; if she wanted to survive, she had to kiss him even deeper.
My body began to tremble, like a fish being manipulated.
My mind is in complete chaos.
I was kissed.
By a stranger.
No, it's an unfamiliar anomaly.
They kissed.
The last thought that popped into Sang Li's mind was...
In the boundless darkness and surging sea, she was lifted up by the mermaid's tail and swam towards the deeper darkness.
Sang Li fainted.
I don't know how much time has passed.
The sound of crashing waves against the black rocks was deafening.
Sang Li opened her eyes. This was...
A pair of deep, unfathomable silver eyes stared at him, reflecting the shimmering light on the sea, like a god looking down upon the world.
Where am I?
She struggled to sit up.
Hey, it's so soft?
What is it?
Sang Li found herself sleeping inside a huge seashell, with soft sand beneath her.
It's very comfortable.
It felt almost the same as the bed Lu Jin had prepared for him.
The sand felt like silk; she had no idea that sand could be so fine.
Am I now considered imprisoned?
Are they still hostages?
Sang Li looked at him.
He also gazed at Sanli.
Something reflected in her eyes; a glimpse in the corner of my eye revealed half of it.
Sang Li steadied herself and asked, "Who are you?"
His silvery-white pupils seemed to have deepened in color, reflecting a soft blue, unlike the sharp appearance in the "Moonlight Sirens" files.
It seems to evoke some human emotions, very gentle.
He spoke, saying, "Amber."
The sound was pleasant and deep, like an echo from a conch shell.
It sounds somewhat...harmless?
For a moment, Sang Li wondered if there was a mistake in the file. How could someone so good-looking be so cruel?
But last night's experience wasn't fake.
Sang Li extended her hand in a friendly manner: "Sang Li."
Amber softly repeated her name: "Ari".
Sang Li's eyebrows twitched. Well, it sounds like Daji.
However, judging from her own abnormal body file, she doesn't seem to be fundamentally different from Daji.
Amber leaned closer to her and called out again, "Ari."
It sounds rather well-behaved.
This is a large, spacious rock cave. Except for the seashell she was on, which was perched on the rocks, the rest of the cave was submerged by seawater.
Sang Li surveyed her surroundings.
From her perspective, she could see an endless ocean outside the cave, but the blood ship was gone. She didn't know how far she had been taken, and there was no sound of Lu Jin in her earphones.
See? When it really matters, you still can't rely on a man.
Sang Li inwardly grumbled.
Right now, her hair was wet, her clothes were wet, she didn't know where she'd thrown her micro-gun, and she felt uncomfortable all over. If she stayed here any longer, she felt like she'd get a layer of alkali buildup on her body. And she'd get sick.
Sang Li has an easygoing personality and is completely unaware of being a hostage.
Sitting inside the seashell, I started checking myself for injuries, only to find that I didn't even have a scratch, except that my hair had turned into clumps of hemp thread.
Amber kindly asked, "What are you doing? Do you need my help?"
Sang Li: "The seawater damaged the protein in my hair."
Amber: "Huh?"
Sang Li: "It's ugly now, I don't have my seaweed-like long hair anymore."
Amber didn't understand: "But I have seaweed."
"..."
Is this something a human being would say?
Oh no, you're not human.
Amber pondered for a moment, then handed a string of lustrous pearls to Sang Li, her silver pupils gleaming: "Here, take this. It's beautiful."
Sang Li, who was pulling her hair, exclaimed, "Huh?"
It's a small pearl.
It's exactly the same as the one on the ship's deck.
Large, round, and shiny, each one plump and lustrous.
Is this a gift for myself?
I don't know what that means?
Sang Li asked, "Didn't you bring me here as a hostage?"
The treatment was not bad, and they even gave us gifts.
I always have this illusion that I was kidnapped and brought home to be a bandit's wife.
Amber shook her head, looking up into her eyes: "No, I like you."
Sang Li's eyes widened, and her face flushed instantly.
Like a languid sunset.
What?
Confession?
Now?
The good news is that he won't hurt himself.
Bad news: he's taken a liking to me.
Since she likes him, can he send her back?
Sang Li's expression was somewhat indescribable.
Amber noticed Sang Li's embarrassed expression, pondered for a moment, and realized the problem: "Your clothes are all wet, are you uncomfortable?"
Sang Li was speechless: "Not bad..."
"Then don't wear it."
Sang Li: ?
What did you say?
Is it that fast?
You kissed yourself yesterday, so you have to take your clothes off today?
Does that mean I'm going to give birth tomorrow?!
Later, he had many children and grandchildren!
Then, will the family live adrift in a sea cave?
don't want!
Sang Li opened her mouth, then awkwardly tugged at her quick-drying tactical uniform.
It's not good to say yes, and it's not good to say no.
She had never been in close proximity to an abnormal being before.
That last sentence was embarrassing, but it wasn't the source of the embarrassment of my toes gripping the ground.
But it seems that Amber has already decided that the wet clothes are what's making her unhappy.
She can't exactly say, "I'm sorry, I don't like you, please take me home."
That would surely result in a terrible death, or being imprisoned and giving birth to a bunch of giant salamanders.
So let's take advantage of this situation and continue on this topic.
Sang Li: "It's not that uncomfortable."
Amber: "Take it off, you're lying."
This phrase is just as natural as "Shoot!"
"..."
Although she understood Amber's animalistic nature—after all, marine creatures don't wear clothes—she was still a little uncomfortable with Amber's "too natural" attitude towards the two of them.
She didn't move or take off her clothes; she just unzipped her pants.
That will make me feel a little better.
Amber asked, "Do you need my help?"
Sang Li noticed that although His voice was as deep as it had been the night before, making it hard to refuse, it was also very polite.
After all, I've been using general questions all along.
Sang Li shrugged: "No need, I can manage on my own."
So Amber smiled and waited for her to make her move.
Unlike the "male gaze" that occurs in human society, even when being stared at by Amber, it is a kind of animalistic curiosity, exploration, and appreciation, and does not pose a greasy threat.
Moreover, having witnessed Amber's immense power, the sincere expression He now displayed made Sangli somewhat at a loss.
Amber's gaze swept over her bare legs and the pants clinging to her calves, indicating that she could take them off as well.
Sang Li sighed and finally took off her coat, leaving her in her sports tank top.
Fortunately, it's made of quick-drying material, so it's not too uncomfortable.
Amber: "That's it?"
Sang Li: "It's not good to take off your clothes; you should always wear something."
Amber smiled slightly: "Okay, I was worried you might feel uncomfortable."
Sangli gazed at His expression.
It's strange. They can speak human language and look like humans, but it's as if they've transformed from animals into humans, without having been exposed to human culture.
Is His abnormality similar to his own mutation process?
However, Amber is also very knowledgeable about firearms.
Is it because too many people have been killed?
Amber tilted her head, her arm gripping the edge of the seashell, her smooth muscle lines wet with seawater, as if coated with olive oil.
“I have some more seashells here,” Amber tossed two over.
The fish flicked its tail, leaping with joy, like flowing mercury.
A pink, palm-sized seashell fell to the ground.
It's a gradient color, which is very beautiful.
It fits perfectly on my chest...
"..."
Mermaids have so many fancy tricks up their sleeves.
Amber: "Don't you like it?"
Sang Li was on the verge of tears, clutching her chest with both hands.
He paused for a moment, then added seriously, "But it's not good if it gets wet; the shell won't get wet."
Sang Li's lips twitched: "Actually, I'm quite comfortable right now."
Amber narrowed her eyes slightly, her tone tinged with disappointment: "You don't like my seashells and pearls?"
After smelling the scent of Sangli, He found the most beautiful shells and pearls in the entire sea.
But is it because they are not liked?
Sang Li was taken aback and looked at him.
Amber's eyes were like moonlight dampened by rain, her animalistic wildness gone, like... like a large dog she had raised.
Was it affected by his own abnormal abilities?
If I keep refusing, won't she go berserk?!
“That’s not what I meant,” Sang Li quickly waved her hand. “The pearls are beautiful, very beautiful!”
She observed Amber's expression and suddenly felt a mixture of amusement and exasperation.
The proud, mysterious, and powerful creature actually showed such an expression because a string of pearls was not accepted.
Do all animals behave this way when courting?
Pshaw! It can't be courtship!
Didn't Tang Lan say that she was seen as a cute little cake by other abnormal beings?
Who would love a mini cake?
Only cockroaches like this!
Fortunately, the people I work with are upright and honest.
"It's my fault, I'll wear it." Sang Li sighed, picked up the necklace, and gently fastened it around her neck.
Then he took off his tactical outer pants, revealing three-quarter length quick-drying athletic pants, which were also the last layer of underwear.
This is the final compromise.
Appropriate compromises can help ensure safety and create a positive atmosphere among anomalous entities.
Amber nodded and moved a little closer to Sangli.
Sang Li asked, "Were those pearls on the blood-stained ship's deck also placed there by you?"
Amber answered honestly, "Yes, welcome to your gift."
Sang Li: "You knew I would go?"
Amber: "Everyone can smell your scent; it's sweet, like a dream."
Sang Li, who hadn't been praised in a long time, blushed and said, "Not really. Then, the corpses on the blood ship..."
He lowered his eyes, pondered for a long time, and finally chose to tell the truth: "I did it too. I was afraid you would be frightened, so I cleaned up the body. You were too lovable, so I also did some cleaning work. I've never seen so many bedbugs before."
bed bugs?
What is a bedbug in the eyes of a mermaid?
Could it be one of those marine anomalies?
Sang Li: "Um, did you kill that snot-like thing?"
"yes."
However, Yu Qi said that the abnormal entity was already dead before Lu Jin shot it.
Amber looked intently into her eyes: "Because bedbugs don't deserve to see you."
A note from the author:
Sang Li: I'm such a smart person.
