Chapter 37

Mermaids are not gregarious creatures, and the only period of their life that they live in groups begins after hatching and ends at the end of adulthood. They belong to oviparous creatures. After birth, each mermaid egg will be uniformly sent to the “nest” by its parents to hatch, and will not leave the “nest” to live alone until adulthood.

For underage mermaids, the “nest” is an absolutely safe area. The leader of the tribe will regularly patrol, expel the existence of danger to the young mermaid, and bring back the young mermaid who try to sneak out in time. And the juvenile mermaid will learn how to survive in the ocean by themselves.

The current leader has not found his partner before Garcia left, so the frequency of appearing in the “nest” is higher. After Garcia ran out of the nest alone when he was young, he was brought back by him, and that adventure was also There was an irreversible scar on the back of Garcia’s neck.

In childhood, many behaviors of mermaids will imitate their kin. As the leader of the only adult mermaid, it is also the object that mermaids will imitate subconsciously when they grow up. Also because the leader, as the only adult fish, has no mate, Garcia and the merman of the same age know almost nothing about mate intimacy.

Therefore, in Boyce’s sincere eyes, although Garcia was a little shaken, he still believed Boyce’s statement that kissing is a very offensive behavior among humans, and temporarily put his offensive thoughts. Press down.

Seeing that Garcia seemed to believe his own words, Boyce was relieved, thinking that this matter was over, but he did not expect that his words to fool Garcia would be exposed soon after.

…

After that, Boyce didn’t expect that he could accidentally turn to Blake’s handwriting.

The first half of the sentence is confession: “I am guilty…”

The second half of the sentence has a hint of fear of death: “But I want to live…”

Boyce remembered what he had seen before, the second half of the sentence in Black’s diary that was crossed out, but he didn’t expect the second half of the sentence to be like this.

Boyce guessed that this should be left by Black after the death of s-5. He may have noticed something at the time, maybe there is guilt about s-5, but he still wants to live.

Thinking back to Beard and Blake and the two mermaids with whom they had entanglements, Boyce began to shy away from the word Sofia.

Moreover, after roughly piecing together the story of the two mermaids, Boyce now always feels that it is not very reliable for mermaids to choose partners by instinct, and from their behavior, they are not suitable partners.

However, after what happened last time, Boyce heard about Garcia and realized that in addition to recognizing his destined partner, the mermaid can also identify whether a person is the destined partner of his own race.

Boyce guessed privately that probably all the people who were chosen by mermaids as their destined partners were some special part of the human race for mermaids, and each mermaid’s partner was one of these humans to that mermaid. The most special one.

…

As time passed, Boyce slowly put the previous kisses on the back of his head.

Boyce’s time in the research institute is not short, probably because Garcia did not hurt Boyce during this time, so the aggressive remarks of s-37 that Boyce heard when he first entered the research institute gradually gradually not enough.

Boyce and Matthew were walking to the restaurant, but they didn’t expect to hear some discussions about Garcia.

“s-37 is quite gentle now.” Boyce noticed that the speaker thought he was speaking in a low voice, but the words also reached Boyce’s ears. Although it sounded a little vague, Boyce even took a guess. Can guess what it means.

The people around him gave Boyce a vague look, sounding envious: “S-37 hasn’t hurt anyone in the breeding room recently.”

He paused, but couldn’t help but speak again: “I heard that s-24 made a scene in the breeding room a few days ago, although no one was hurt…”

“I don’t know what Professor Cyril and the others have done to s-37. It would be nice if they could be used on other mermaids…” The person who started talking sighed.

Because they all know that investors have the idea of ​​taking Garcia back as a pet, many people think that Garcia has not attacked Boyce for such a long time because Cyril and the others have done tricks on mermaids.

Because Professor Cyril and the others did not care about these rumors, more and more people believe this statement in private.

Occasionally, a few people suggested that it might be because of Boyce, but they were all refuted. After all, Boyce is not seen by mermaids, which is the default of most researchers.

He was attacked by the s-19 the first time he went to the F area, and was almost dragged into the water by him as soon as he received the job of feeding the s-24.

“Some time ago, I saw Boyce come out of the s-37’s breeding room with his clothes soaked.” Another added, “Boyce seems to have been targeted by mermen.”

Boyce always knew that he should be seen walking out of Garcia’s breeding room with wet clothes that day, but he did not expect that other people in the institute thought that Boyce was dragged into the water by Garcia.

In those days, there were people who came to care about him: “Fortunately, you weren’t injured.”

Not long after the drowning incident, the institute spread rumors that Garcia deliberately dragged him into the water to intimidate him because he didn’t like Boyce.

In the eyes of most people, there is no merman who has come into contact with Boyce who does not hate him.

So, how could the s-37 not hurt people because of Boyce?

Most of the Institute believes this.

…

At the same time, in the research institute, after a period of time after the end of the new medicine, the people in the research institute have gradually started not to mention the name of Oriel, just like when Beard was killed by s-19. Likewise, it was only talked about for a while and then quickly forgotten.

The research of Professor Cyril’s experimental group is proceeding smoothly, the new medicine has been sent out, the first batch of customers have started to take it, and the others are still waiting to see the effect of the first person to take it.

And Laurie’s experiments on auxiliary agents are also going on. Laurie is thinner than when he first entered Professor Cyril’s group, and the red scaly protrusions on his body are still slowly spreading on his body.

As someone who witnessed this process with his own eyes, Boyce, as the progress of the experiment accelerated, remembered that the changes in Laurie became more and more uncomfortable. He retained the transformation of Z-III, although the appearance of the scaly protrusions on his body was delayed. But seeing with his own eyes that his own kin began to appear suspiciously non-human features, it was somewhat uncomfortable.

The client obviously accepted it very well. Laurie can now calmly accept the changes in himself. Some people in the same group, including Boyce, have alluded to him politely and asked him to consider the No. 1 medicine. After all, z-III is in the The transformation on his body is really shocking.

Most people in the research institute are more inclined to seek stability in medicine. Compared with the unfinished No. 2 auxiliary medicine, although No. 1 will cause damage to the body, it can at least guarantee his survival.

After all, they were colleagues from the same institute, and Boyce’s colleagues still hoped that Laurie would survive.

However, Laurie himself was reluctant to bear the benefits brought by z-III and insisted on waiting for the emergence of adjuvant drugs without side effects.

…

While everything was going according to plan, someone brought up one thing while chatting.

“I heard that our deputy director is coming soon…”

Boyce has heard this kind of words several times, and asked casually: “When will it arrive?”

However, the person who brought up this topic this time made the time clear: “It will be next week.”

The author has something to say: ! The manuscript box pits me! It is the chapter before the revision!
