Chapter 12

early morning.

Boyce, who was sleeping, suddenly woke up. He took a watch from the bedside, glanced at the time, and continued to sleep with his eyes closed.

After a while, Boyce opened his eyes a little irritably, thinking of the mermaid still in the breeding room, and an urge he didn’t know the reason gave birth to, and wanted to go to the breeding room to see it.

S-37 estimated the time, and when Boyce came over in the middle of the night a few days ago, he approached the glass, put his ear to the glass, and paid attention to the movement in the corridor.

Driven by an inexplicable impulse in his heart, Boyce stopped at the door of the breeding room before he regained his senses.

It is probably that people are always easy to empathize with objects similar to themselves. After seeing s-19, Boyce did not know how to deal with S-37, who was also trapped in the research institute.

It’s only been in the institute for a year, will the S-19 be what it will be decades later, thin, jagged, and most of its life lost.

Boyce was a little distracted when he thought of this, stopped at the door of the breeding room, and his eyes fell on the metal plate with his name written on it.

The mermaid heard the familiar footsteps in the pool, and the body was closer to the glass, however, the footsteps stopped at the door.

A hint of doubt flashed in the golden pupils, because Boyce’s stopping behavior flicked his tail irritably.

“Sofia—”

Why don’t you come in?

The mermaid wanted to float up a little anxiously. Through the glass of the breeding room, it could see the closed door, and it clearly knew that Boyce was parked at the door.

But it knew it couldn’t do that, and the humans at the institute could somehow see what it did.

Its sofia doesn’t like to be spied on, and the mermaid told himself that he couldn’t make him feel threatened, and he had to remove his defenses little by little before he could approach him.

It leaned against the glass motionless, listening more attentively to the movement outside, waiting for the person outside the door to come in, waiting for him to call to himself before it could surface.

The people outside the door moved again.

Boyce put the key card back in his pocket and turned back.

It is hard for him to imagine that the s-37 will one day become the same as the s-19.

But what can I do?

The somewhat bewitching face appeared in Boyce’s mind, and a thought suddenly appeared in his heart.

steal it?

Boyce was stunned by his own thoughts.

He glanced back in the direction of the breeding room.

This should not be the idea that he will give birth to. Boyce knows that he may have sympathy for s-37 and can’t bear it, but that’s it, it’s not enough for him to fight for the mermaid and the research institute.

The idea of ​​stealing the mermaid only existed in his mind for a moment before cooling down, Boyce concealed his doubts and returned to his room.

Behind Boyce, the mermaid in the breeding room listened to the footsteps outside the door getting further and further away, and continued to wait unwillingly.

After a while, the footsteps belonging to Boyce became quieter and quieter, and then disappeared completely.

The water in the pool was violently stirred, and the blue tail flashed past and dived back to the bottom.

The author has something to say:

Fish: They’re all at the door. Are you leaving? ? ? !

I suddenly found that compared with other authors’ very interesting and attractive title copy, the title and copy of this article are both rustic and rustic, abbreviated as: Rustic QAQ
