Chapter 17
Boyce later revisited the records concerning Subject S-37.
In addition to some experimental records, there are some other logs.
Boyce saw in a journal the beginning and end of the capture of the s-37.
“At the beginning of April, our people found a grey mermaid, and at the end of the month formed a team to catch the mermaid.”
“May thirteenth. We have found its traces again.”
“May 27th. We successfully caught this gray mermaid, but suddenly a blue mermaid that had not been detected before appeared. It is a circle bigger than the gray mermaid.”
“It cut the net and released the grey merman.”
“Adults tend to be more solitary, and we didn’t expect a second merman to show up here.”
“Maybe they came out of courtship? But both merman are males.”
“June 9th. The grey merman did not reappear, it may have left this area.”
“June 23rd. We have completely lost track of the gray mermaid, and the team leader said we can prepare to return.”
“June 25th. We found the blue merman who suddenly appeared, and we decided to stay for a while.”
“June 29th. It’s been around our boat frequently, and it looks like it’s looking for something.”
“July 3rd. We successfully caught this merman, which was named s-37.”
The S-37 is smart.
Boyce had always known this, and he couldn’t believe the merman didn’t see what the institute’s ship was trying to do.
It appears frequently near the ship of the institute. Is it really looking for something, or is there another purpose?
On May 27th, Boyce noticed the time when the mermaid was discovered. For some reason, he suddenly remembered that he entered the research institute at the same time.
Is it a coincidence?

“Boyce?” Matthew cried.
Boyce regained his senses and looked at Matthew beside him: “What’s wrong?”
“Are you ready for the afternoon experiment?”
Boyce nodded, and Matthew looked at him absent-mindedly, guessing that he was distracted by Professor Chris’s business. He comforted Boyce: “No news may be a good thing, maybe Professor Chris and the others are all right now, but there is no way to contact us.”
Although he said so, Matthew was almost certain in his heart that Chris and the others had been killed, but naturally he couldn’t say these words to Boyce.
Professor Chris and the others have been out of contact for a while. During this time, Oriel has been secretly targeting people in Chris’ team, acting more and more excessively.
As a student of Professor Chris, Boyce has also been affected during this period, but with Cyril intervening, Oleil has not done too much.

It’s a regular project today.
The mermaid was bound on the experimental bench, but Boyce remembered that before the matter was broken, the merman always swam by the glass, intentionally or unintentionally, and the two merman who were now lying helplessly on the experimental bench were like two mermaids.
Boyce was absent-minded for a moment in the laboratory. He thought that it should not be on this experimental bench, nor should it be wandering in the pool built for it in the laboratory, but should be in the vast ocean.
He still remembered the first time he saw a mermaid fighting a shark, and the ocean was its destination.
But although the scene at that time was shocking, it was not as touching as Boyce’s heart at this moment.
At that time, S-37 was just a mermaid to Boyce, no different from other mermaids in the laboratory, and the only sympathy and guilt he had for it was only a superficial layer.
But now, lying on the experimental table, is a mermaid who had given him his own scales and shark teeth. He had unconsciously invested in his feelings in the past, and had secretly entered the breeding room in the middle of the night to spend some time with it.
Even if it all started with his little tricks, he was the most special merman to Boyce.
Boyce pierced the tip of the needle into the merman’s skin and drew a tube of blood from it.
The merman was very quiet today, but Boyce could feel its cryptic look at him.
It seems normal that it knows that its attention may cause Boyce to trouble, and avoids the attention of others.
Boyce pulled out the needle and raised his eyes to meet the mermaid’s gaze.
Boyce avoided its gaze almost subconsciously.
He lowered his eyes, remembering a white shark tooth and dull blue scales in a bedroom drawer.
Then he couldn’t help but glanced at the mermaid on the experimental bench.
The merman’s eyes kept falling on Boyce.
After the image of the s-37 was passed to the investors, the Eureka family received news that they wanted to keep it as a pet.
With this in mind, the experiments on s-37 were the mildest compared to other merfolk, at least, in its view, these wounds were innocuous, not even the ones it had suffered while outstretched in the ocean. .
But it knew it couldn’t reveal that to the researchers.
When Boyce looked over, it quickly pretended to be weak and greatly affected.
The experience from predecessors tells it that weakness can’t let your enemies let you go, but it can make Sofia soft-hearted as a human.
Compared with the merman who pursues the law of the jungle, humans are more sympathetic to the weak.
The golden pupils looked at him, and saw a trace of unbearable flash in the eyes of the human being.
Cyril instructed Matthew: “Go and get the Gn5 potion.”
The Gn series of drugs is one of the main research projects on Cyril’s side. Its function is to dilute and remove the toxins in the merman, to be precise, the toxins of S-37.
The institute almost tacitly agreed that this merman would eventually be sent to the Eureka family and become a real, harmless pet.
Before that, the research institute will solve all the hidden dangers on its body, naturally including the toxins on its body or develop antidote, and the former is the best result, the latter is just an alternative.
The drug that was originally planned to be tested on the mermaid today was Gn4, but Cyril had a temporary intention to try the effect of Gn5, which was successfully developed yesterday, on the mermaid.
Gn4 has been improved many times and is much milder than Gn5, which has just been developed.
The merman was lying on the test bench, listening to them discussing what experiment to do on him next, Boyce’s eyes fell on the part of the merman’s tail fin that went beyond the test bench.
“Use Gn4.”
Boyce’s voice sounded in the laboratory, and when others heard it, Matthew stopped and looked at Cyril inquiringly.
“Gn5 has just been developed, and I don’t know if it will conflict with anesthesia.” Boyeston paused and continued, “The data of S-37 are at a very healthy level. If Gn5 makes the anesthesia ineffective, it will very dangerous.”
Boyce turned his back to S-37, and behind him, the merman was keenly aware of the hidden message in Boyce’s actions.
He is soft-hearted…
The seemingly solid wall in Boyce’s heart that kept the mermaid out had cracked.
Even if the hints left by S-37 were broken, the emotions that were amplified during this time still left traces on Boyce.
Cyril glanced at Matthew: “Go get Gn4.”
Hearing this, Boyce’s unconsciously clenched hands subconsciously loosened.
After injecting the medicine into the merman, they took some more merman’s blood before sending it back.
Before leaving the lab, Boyce felt his little finger hooked lightly in a hidden place by a claw retracted from a fingernail.
Boyce put the hand touched by the merman into his pocket, curled his fingers subconsciously, and made a fist with a little strength.
Did I do something?
Boyce thought, he did nothing but raise a hidden danger of Gn5.
but…
Humans are creatures that are easily dominated by emotions, Boyce thought.
The author has something to say:
The fish only knew that Bai Bo was angry, but did not know the root cause of why he was angry
Then keep rolling over hahaha
Fish: I am the most special!
Bo Bo added: The most special fish 🙂
No, this update time hurts my hair too much, the next chapter will be updated on Saturday during the day (∩△∩)
