Chapter 94
The aquarium is an oval-shaped venue in the shape of a bird's nest.
There were not many tourists on Friday, so there was no need to queue. Teacher Xiao Song led a group of children and parents in.
When you enter the aquarium, what comes into view is a crystal blue underwater tunnel.
This is the underwater tunnel that the aquarium spent a huge amount of money to build this year. The lighting is dim, leaving only two beams of light under your feet.
Xingnuo held his brother's hand. The weather was cold, and the small round hat he put on flattened his curly hair, leaving only a few strands sticking out from his forehead.
There is sea water on both sides of Xingnuo, and the transparent glass prevents various fish from approaching. At first glance, it seems as if it is completely wrapped in the ocean.
Xingnuo and the little friend exclaimed in amazement for a long time, then ran over and put their little faces against the glass.
With her fair cheek pressed against the cool glass, Xingnuo shrank back due to the coldness, but was reluctant to move away and continued to stare at the fish in the glass without blinking.
A colorful fish with a long tail swam over and swung its tail on the glass as if to deliberately scare people.
Xingnuo, who was pressed against the glass, was startled and stepped back subconsciously. His foot tripped over the carpet and he accidentally fell on his butt.
Not only him, but other children were also scared and screamed.
Qingqing was also wearing a hat. He ran around bravely and pointed to the sky for other children to see.
“There are fish up there too!”
Xingnuo, who was sitting on the floor, looked up and saw the clear blue sea water covering his head, and many fish were swimming with their tails flicking.
At this moment, it really seemed like there was no difference from being at the bottom of the sea.
The speakers simulated the sound of surging waves. Xingnuo patted his little butt and stood up. He seemed to be able to smell the salty smell of the sea water at the tip of his nose.
It's cool and slightly salty, very much like the smell of my second brother.
Chen Yan recorded a video of the little guy who fell, walked over with a hooked lip, and took Xingnuo up and walked to the glass again.
"The little fish are playing with you, but they can't get out because of the glass."
Xingnuo pressed his little hand against the glass and nodded.
Sure enough, the bad fish that had just scared the child swam over again and spit out a series of bubbles.
The kid next to him almost thought the bubbles were spit on his face, and he quickly wiped his face and backed away.
Xingnuo arched his eyebrows and pointed at the little fish, "It's a bad fish!"
Teacher Xiao Song waved a small flag and introduced various types of fish to the children in front.
A few tourists who strayed in saw the kindergarten students coming out for activities as a group. Several five-head-tall cubs were following the teacher like cute little ducklings, and they couldn't help but take out their cell phones to take a few photos.
In every photo, the tourists who are obsessed with looks included Chen Yan and Xing Nuo.
"This father and son are both very good-looking!"
"They are not father and son. The child calls him brother. They are brothers!"
"Wow, is it this cute?"
Chen Yan ignored the tourists, holding Xingnuo's hand and following Teacher Xiao Song, moving forward little by little.
Teacher Xiao Song waved a small flag and stopped in front of an arched door.
"There is a more beautiful and exciting underwater tunnel ahead. You will be standing on glass and surrounded by sea water. If there are children and parents who are afraid, they can just stay here."
There were two parents and children with severe fear of the deep sea. After hearing this, they stopped decisively and just stayed in this ordinary glass underwater tunnel to take a look.
The remaining children were full of anticipation, and they kept shouting and urging Teacher Song to hurry up.
"We need to go in and see the giant shark!"
"Why is there no Little Mermaid?"
Teacher Xiao Song emphasized again:
“The tunnel inside is quite exciting, but there will also be a wonderful mermaid show. Children who want to go must hold their parents’ hands!”
The children all responded yes, and Xingnuo even held his brother's fingers tightly, his little face full of anticipation and nervousness.
Walking into the archway, I stepped on the flowing ocean water. A few fish swam under my feet from the left side, and for a moment it seemed as if I had fallen into the sea.
A few children were frightened and hugged their parents' legs, screaming several times.
"Mom, hold me! A fish ate my feet!"
"Wow! This is so dangerous! I'm in the sea!"
The dim light only retains the deep blue color of the vast sea water, and all the light is focused on the various fish, which is a feast for the eyes.
Xingnuo was also a little afraid to walk, so he held his brother's hand, took several deep breaths, and then took a small step forward.
Chen Yan, who was standing by, held up his phone and recorded the little guy's nervous and frightened look.
"Xingnuo." Chen Yan called out, and when Xingnuo looked up, he froze the moment with a click.
The whole family especially likes taking photos of Xingnuo.
The photos developed by Chen Wen could fill an entire bookcase.
Xingnuo was still a little worried. Her little feet seemed to be grown on the glass and she dared not move.
A small fish came over and deliberately bumped into the glass under Xingnuo's feet, scaring Xingnuo so much that he let out a slight cry.
"Brother, brother! There's a fish hitting the glass!"
Xingnuo pointed at the short and fat fish, feeling nervous and worried that the glass under his feet would be broken by the fish.
The glass broke and he and his brother were about to fall into the sea!
Chen Yan raised his thin lips, laughed out loud, and teased him twice:
"Really? What if the glass is broken?"
Xingnuo nodded vigorously, grabbed her brother's legs, and simply stretched out her little hands to hug him.
Seeing that there were some naughty and lively fish coming to push at the glass under his feet, Xing Nuo screamed and quickly put his little feet on Shen Yan's feet.
When going out for fun, Chen Yan specially changed into casual clothes and sneakers. When the little guy stepped on his shoes, two gray little footprints instantly appeared.
But since his feet didn't touch the glass, Xingnuo was obviously relieved and not as scared anymore.
He stepped on his brother's feet, hugged his brother's thighs, and lowered his head to look at the various fish under his feet.
After his foot was stepped on, Chen Yan was completely unable to move, so he simply reached out and picked up the frightened Xing Nuo.
Xingnuo was happy now, as he didn't have to step on the glass, and his little expression was obviously cheerful.
He was still in the mood to point at the big fat fish and show it to his brother.
"It's a really fat fish. It must have eaten all the food of the other small fishes."
Shen Yan pinched the tip of the little guy's nose and whispered:
"Don't step on shoes next time."
Xingnuo smiled with bright eyes, put her head on her brother's shoulder and nodded vigorously.
"Okay, brother, I won't be afraid if I hold you."
Shen Yan smiled, took a step forward, and followed the teachers and other parents in front.
The lights in the aquarium dimmed for a moment, and everything around was pitch black.
Xingnuo hugged his brother's neck, tilted his little face up and looked around.
The light was so bright that Xingnuo's eyes were blurred for a moment.
Teacher Xiao Song's voice rang out, pointing to the glass on the left:
"Children, the performance of The Little Mermaid is about to begin! Please watch quietly!"
Xingnuo looked in the direction of the voice and saw a mermaid with a light blue tail swimming in the sea, sticking to the glass.
With long hair fluttering in the sea, the mermaid sister and the small fishes around her were spinning around the sea, so beautiful that Xingnuo couldn't bear to blink.
In less than ten minutes, the mermaid show was over.
Many parents held up their mobile phones to take pictures of this wonderful performance.
Xingnuo opened her mouth and didn't come back to her senses. She uttered a soft wow and couldn't help but exclaimed:
"The little mermaid is so beautiful!"
Then, he turned his head again and asked like a curious baby:
"Brother, didn't this little mermaid turn into a human? She has no legs!"
Chen Yan knew that this mermaid was played by a staff member of the aquarium, but Teacher Xiao Song said that he wanted to protect the innocence of children, so he could only respond:
"The little mermaid can still swim very fast without legs, right?"
Xingnuo nodded vigorously, immersed in the performance just now, and even forgot to be afraid.
After watching the show, the trip to the aquarium ended.
The children got on the bus for the return trip and were still arguing:
"The Little Mermaid is real! You just saw it! She's in the oceanarium!"
"You are such fools! This is just to fool kids! I saw it, the Little Mermaid is fake!" Xiaopang yelled.
Qingqing is a staunch supporter of the Little Mermaid. She was so angry at Xiaopang that her face turned red. She turned around and asked Xingnuo who was in the back row.
"Xingnuo, do you think the Little Mermaid is real?"
Xingnuo was eating bread obediently, and nodded affirmatively when he heard this.
"Yes, we all saw it."
Qingqing suddenly became like a victorious rooster, holding his head high and snorting at Xiaopang.
"Xingnuo also said that the Little Mermaid is real!"
Xiaopang snorted and thought these kids were so stupid!
He went to the bathroom at that time and clearly saw the mermaid backstage take off her tail, revealing her two legs!
But no one else believed it, which made Xiaopang feel very uncomfortable.
Finally, the angry little fat boy took out a photo from his mother's mobile phone to prove himself.
In the photo, the little mermaid has two legs, not a fish tail!
Xingnuo's eyes suddenly widened and the small bread in his hand fell out of fright.
"Little Mermaid, have you exchanged your fish tail with the witch so soon?"
Xiaopang burst Xingnuo's fantasy, "She is pretending to be me! I still have the video!"
After watching the cross-dressing video that Xiaopang found on the Internet, Xingnuo felt unwell and was in a daze all the way.
Xiao Mianbao didn't want to eat anymore. Xingnuo returned home and poked at the rice in his bowl during lunch, still thinking about the Little Mermaid.
Shen Baizhou had quickly finished a bowl of rice, and just as he stretched out his hand, Shen Yan, who was next to him, took the soup spoon and hit him hard on the forehead.
"You're still eating, save some for Xingnuo."
Shen Baizhou then put down the hand that was stretched out to serve the rice, and saw Shen Yan serving soup to Xingnuo again, and waved a finger in front of Xingnuo's eyes.
"Why aren't you eating? What are you thinking about?"
Xingnuo sighed and continued to poke at the rice, sighing in a bad mood.
"Brother, it turns out that the little mermaid is fake. There are no mermaids in the world."
Shen Baizhou hummed, raised his eyelids and said:
“This world doesn’t have that.”
There are no strange-looking species in the real world, so there is naturally no little mermaid.
However, Shen Baizhou asked, "Do you want to see The Little Mermaid?"
Xingnuo shook his head, drooping his little head, and looked depressed.
"No, the little mermaid is fake, so is the dragon defeated by the little knight also fake?"
Xingnuo, who was facing the reality of this world, couldn't help but feel confused for a moment.
"So I can't be a knight anymore?"
Since fairy tales are all lies to children, can Xingnuo become a little knight when he grows up?
Shen Baizhou uttered an "ah", finished the soup in his bowl, and said without hesitation:
"Why not?"
Not only can you be a little knight, you can also be a little mermaid.
