Chapter 13
Boyce returned to his residence, just after taking off his coat, the light in the room suddenly went dark.
Boyce put his coat aside, groped carefully in the dark, and soon came across the corner of the desk, where he remembered a flashlight.
The light from the flashlight illuminated the room, and Boyce then walked to the wall and flicked the light switch a few times.
The light on the ceiling didn’t turn on, Boyce frowned, wondering if the light in his room was broken or the power went out.
But the latter should be unlikely.
Boyce went to the door and opened it while thinking about when to ask the logistics to change the light bulb tomorrow.
It was dark outside the door, only the light of the torch in Boyce’s hand.
power outage…
However, the power system logistics of the institute has been checked very diligently, and it stands to reason that there will be no sudden power failure.
Unless someone turns off the switch…
Area F.
Taking advantage of the darkness, the two sneaked into S-19’s rearing room, they turned on a light, and then opened the glass that separated the mermaid in the rearing room.
One of them took out a black scale from his pocket, rubbed the scale with his index finger subconsciously, remembering that a mermaid with scales would not hurt anyone, he calmed down a little, knocked on the glass, and said tentatively, “You Are you there?”
After saying these words, he and his companions listened to the movement in the pool with their ears open, and the body had been vigilantly facing the front to prevent it from suddenly attacking.
A slight paddling sound soon sounded in the pool, and the two of them clenched the weapons they brought in. Thinking of their purpose, they asked anxiously, “Is that you?”
A somewhat dry voice sounded in the breeding room, with a strange pronunciation: “I’m here.”
This voice did not belong to any of them, and the two of them felt tight. For the first time, they knew that the mermaid could actually speak human language.
The two of them looked at the water subconsciously, and the thin mermaid floated to the surface, with one hand on the edge of the lifting platform, its gaze fell on the scale, and the other hand reached out to them: “Give me…”
One person stepped forward and shoved the scales into its hands. It took a look at the scales, and then bent both hands, trying to jump on the lift.
The two people on the elevator looked at each other, grabbed the weak mermaid’s arm, pulled it up, and then quickly retreated.
The gills behind the ears of the mermaid who came ashore opened and closed, barely propping up her body.
“We’re here to take you away.” The person who spoke saw the mermaid looking at him and swallowed: “We can leave the institute tonight, but you can’t hurt anyone.”
“You saw the scales too.”
The mermaid didn’t reply, he could only bite the bullet and continue, according to the above instructions, he must get its guarantee: “If you agree, we will take you away.”
After speaking, he took out a pair of handcuffs, which should be enough to handcuff the weak S-19.
S-19 stretches out both hands, motioning for them to be handcuffed.
The two breathed a sigh of relief and agreed: “Then hurry up.”
Seeing that the mermaid was still very weak, the two of them could only carry it on their backs in a hurry.
They haven’t put too many people in the research institute. Originally, they wanted to take all the fish away at one time after they were fully prepared, but s-19 was not expected to last that long, so they had to take it out first.
Because the mermaid just talked to it, the mermaid is not incapable of communicating, so the two were slightly relieved.
Because the deployment was not sufficient, they could only climb out the ventilation ducts, which was the best way they could find at the moment. too long.”
He didn’t expect to get a reply at first, but he didn’t expect it to say: “Okay.”
The man who was pulling the mermaid in front of him glanced at it subconsciously, and the mermaid actually smiled at him, and his voice sounded a little ethereal: “Thank you.”
The two were stunned for a moment, a little embarrassed: “No thanks…” They looked at the mermaid’s somewhat bewitching face compared to humans, and couldn’t look away for some reason.
Hearing this, the smile on the mermaid’s face deepened, and it was inexplicably strange, but the two people next to her did not notice anything unusual.
…
A urging voice suddenly sounded in the earphones: “Where have you been?”
The two people who were in a trance suddenly came back to their senses. The handcuffs were broken by the mermaid on the ground. Only a dim red tail was left in sight, and it disappeared after a flash.
The two looked at each other, as if they were just looking at the mermaid’s face for a while, and then it escaped after recovering?
It leaves only two sentences.
“I won’t hurt anyone else.” The merman wouldn’t break his promise, but it didn’t promise anything before.
But s-19 still made concessions: “I’m going to kill someone…”
…
The person on the other end heard the report that the mermaid had run away, and scolded a few idiots: “I said to be careful not to be fooled by it!”
But I didn’t expect that the two people who were sent over were still led away by it unknowingly.
However, after the mermaid ran away, they had no choice but to hope that it was true.
…
The Institute lights up again.
Boyce turned off the flashlight, and the institute’s alarm sounded: “The experimental body s-19 has disappeared, and all departments should report any abnormal situation in time!”
s-19?
Boyce remembered the mermaid he saw during the day. It doesn’t seem to be able to escape alone now. Compared with s-19, Boyce felt that s-37 was more likely to escape.
After the broadcast stopped, Boyce in the room seemed to hear the sound of a snake sliding, Boyce stopped what he was doing and looked overhead.
But at this moment the sound suddenly disappeared.
Is it an illusion?
Boyce sat at the desk, and his eyelids began to fight up and down uncontrollably.
Before he completely lost consciousness, a malicious voice suddenly entered his ears.
“I really want to… kill you…”
