Chapter 56

In the lab Boyce heard Matthew complaining to the others about investors again.

I don’t know what happened to him, but he had to pay attention to the pomp and circumstance, and let everyone in the research institute take the time to greet him.

“I was planning to ask for leave.” He couldn’t help complaining again, but Professor Cyril said that the investors had a little impression of their experimental group, and he even mentioned that it would be impossible for Matthew to be lazy.

Boyce’s hands kept turning his back to them, but his ears kept paying attention to what was going on behind him.

And Matthew mentioned Boyce: “By the way, investors are said to have special opinions on you.”

“See me?” Boyce moved his hand and turned his head to find that Matthew was also looking at him.

“Yes.” Matthew looked at him and smiled, “It should be because of Collins, he probably mentioned you a lot to his father.”

It is estimated that after listening to Collins for a long time, investors also became curious about Boyce.

Boyce listened to them, lowered his head and put the anesthetic in his hand into the storage box, rubbing his fingers on the glass bottle unconsciously a few times.

They were talking when Professor Cyril suddenly pushed the door and walked in.

“Is everything ready?”

Boyce and the others nodded, probably because they were a little tired from negotiating with investors recently, and Professor Cyril had a lot more white hair on his head than before.

Professor Cyril’s eyes were still light blue and black, and his lips were dry and peeling. Matthew took a cup of hot water and handed it to him.

Professor Cyril took the water glass and held it in his hand. He didn’t drink the water immediately, and looked at Matthew for a while.

Matthew was watched by Professor Cyril’s considerate gaze and straightened his body subconsciously. He carefully looked at Professor Cyril’s face, noting the subtle changes in his face, and at the same time recalled in his heart whether he had done it again recently. Something that might annoy Professor Cyril.

“Teacher?” Matthew touched his nose and looked at Professor Cyril inexplicably with a guilty conscience. Although he didn’t know why, he felt guilty even though he had done nothing wrong recently.

Professor Cyril looked at him for a while, and finally there was a hint of warmth in his eyes.

He lowered his head and took a sip of water, then said with emotion: “It’s nothing, I just remembered that I haven’t seen you like this for a long time.”

Hearing the words, Matthew relaxed, remembering that Professor Cyril’s daughter’s condition had begun to improve recently, rubbed his arms, and began to joke with Professor Cyril: “Teacher, you just saw me as if you were going to dissect me. Putting it under a microscope to observe…”

Professor Cyril glanced at him and said nothing.

Matthew has always been very open in front of Professor Cyril, but he didn’t bother him much because of Professor Cyril’s daughter who was seriously ill some time ago.

After feeling that the danger was lifted, Matthew asked about Professor Cyril’s daughter.

“Is she okay now? I heard that she has been on new medicine recently and is getting better?” Matthew was still worried about Professor Cyril’s daughter.

“She’s fine now.” With a smile on Professor Cyril’s face, Boyce heard him say, “She’ll be cured.”

After Professor Cyril left the laboratory for a while, Matthew shook his head again.

“The teacher doesn’t seem to be in a good mood.” After all, he was a student who had been with Professor Cyril for so long, and Matthew could see that.

Matthew felt that Professor Cyril should have nothing but his daughter’s illness to make him feel so bad.

Boyce heard another man say, “Isn’t it enough that Collins took the subject away?”

Matthew shook his head: “The teacher shouldn’t care about this so much?” If he really cared, when the investor proposed to take the mermaid away, Professor Cyril should have refused.

Unable to figure it out, Matthew didn’t think about it anymore. He looked up and found that Boyce was still holding a box with anesthesia in his hand.

“Have you checked for anesthetics?” Matthew asked casually.

Boyce put the box away: “Checked, no problem.”

“That’s good.” Matthew said, “This is going to be used on the mermaid in a few days, so don’t have a problem.”

“it is good.”

…

Collins was still itchy recently, and Boyce saw him come out of the infirmary again.

“Is it okay?” Boyce asked when he saw him.

Collins nodded, and opened his collar to show Boyce: “I don’t know what bug bit me, and it hasn’t healed with the medicine before.”

Boyce glanced at a small red spot on Collins’ skin. According to Collins’ description, it was estimated that it had been on him for a few days, but it seemed that it had not healed much recently.

And next to the little red dot, which was barely noticeable, was a toothmark with bloodstains. The object of the toothmark should have four canine teeth, and four bloodstained teeth were left on Collins’ skin. small pit.

“It was bitten by s-24 today.” Collins was taken aback by him at the time.

Boyce didn’t expect Collins to see s-24 again. He told Boyce a few days ago that because of Laurie, he was still vaguely afraid to approach the mermaid.

“After all, I’m gone in a few days and won’t be back,” Collins said.

Although this time I can bring back the blue mermaid I like, but it does not mean that Collins has no feelings for s-24. In Collins’ view, he is still a very good pet.

If it wasn’t for Collins himself, even his father would not have promised him to take the two merman, so he gave up the idea of ​​taking the s-24.

But thinking of not seeing him in the future, Collins still felt a little reluctant.

For Collins, Garcia is the equivalent of a cold and untouchable house cat that can be kept at home, while s-24 is like a warm and docile wild cat outside.

Although Collins prefers Garcia’s appearance, he is also happy to use s-24 as a meal replacement when he can’t meet Garcia.

After playing for a long time, although the s-24 is not as important as Garcia’s beautiful blue tail in Collins’ heart, Collins still has a bit of reluctance for him.

So, before he left, he suppressed his slight fear that the merman still existed, and decided to go and see it.

Because s-24 likes to entangle himself at ordinary times, and always licks and licks on his neck, so Collins is not very defensive about his actions, so he accidentally left a tooth mark on his neck for a while. .

Collins told Boyce his guess. When he saw s-24 today, he seemed a little unhappy, and he probably took his own anger out.

Moreover, Collins also discovered something that was somewhat novel to share with Boyce.

“The mermaid can actually talk!” Collins heard him speak for the first time after being bitten today. Collins, who was immersed in the fact that the mermaid could speak, was still persuaded by the mermaid to agree to many of his requests.

However, Collins didn’t feel relieved, and just thought it was just casually used to coax the mermaid.

After hearing s-24 speak, Collins began to wonder if Garcia could speak, after all, he was also a mermaid.

Therefore, after leaving the infirmary, he held this curiosity and wanted to ask Boyce.

If he didn’t meet Boyce here, he would also go to Boyce to ask this question later.

“Can s-37 talk too?”

Collins is really curious about this question.

Boyce looked at Collins’ look of anticipation, and replied mysteriously: “No.”

Hearing this, Collins’ face showed a bit of loss, but he quickly adjusted.

“It doesn’t matter,” Collins said. “I won’t be able to learn it later. I can teach him when the time comes.”

Collins thought it was interesting to be able to teach mermaids to speak. He had raised several parrots before and taught them to speak, so he was also interested in teaching mermaids to speak.

“It may not be long since he came to the institute, so he can’t speak yet, but it doesn’t matter, he will be able to teach him more in the future.”

Boyce nodded, indicating that he agreed with him.

Not really, what Collins said was true. After all, Boyce still knew in his heart that there was a high probability that Collins would not be able to take Garcia away this time.

Even if it really didn’t escape in time and was taken away by Collins, it should be able to find a chance to escape later.

Boyce had already inquired about Collins before. Out of inexplicable insistence, and in order to conceal the existence of the mermaid, Collins prepared the pool for the mermaid on a small island in the sea.

“Mermaids already live in the sea, and they should be raised near the sea,” Collins said.

And probably s-24 gave the mermaid the confidence that he would not hurt himself, and although Garcia didn’t look good on him, he didn’t really hurt him, so in this regard, Collins had almost no fear of the mermaid.

He also has great confidence in himself, believing that he can keep the mermaid on his own private island.

“I think what you said before makes some sense.” Although Collins felt that a smaller pool would allow him to fully appreciate the swimming posture of the mermaid, he felt that he still needed some space for the mermaid to move.

After re-arranging the dwelling of the human fish during this period, Collins couldn’t help showing the blueprint to Boyce, and when he didn’t know it, Boyce told Garcia again and studied several times. An escape route to prevent accidents, even if Collins takes him back, he can escape.

…

After separating from Collins, Boyce also remembered the Garcia just mentioned, and couldn’t help but walk towards his breeding room again.

On the way to find Garcia, Boyce saw Professor Chris, Boyce glanced at the location where he came, which happened to be the direction of the logistics office.
