Chapter 525 Look, there’s a mermaid (23)
Because Yun Qian was busy teasing fish and forgot to pay attention to the working hours, Yun Qian ended up going to the research institute on the way to work.
There are a few experiments that are not very important today and I need Yun Qian's help to keep an eye on them.
Yun Qian stared at the rapidly scrolling data on the screen. When he saw something, he shouted, "There's something wrong here. Please change it later and try again."
The researcher took a piece of paper and pen to record it, nodded and said, "Okay."
After all the data was displayed, the screen turned into a brief black screen, with Nie Yu's face reflected on it.
"Dr. Yun." Nie Yu said.
Yun Qian turned around in response, "What's wrong?"
"Can I take a step to talk?"
The next experiment hadn't started so soon. Yun Qian explained some of the next things and then came to the corridor with Nie Yu.
There were researchers coming and going in the corridor. Most of them had their heads lowered and hurried about, preparing to rush to the next study. Not many people paid attention to Yun Qian and Nie Yu. At most, they nodded to each other.
Yun Qian put the goggles into the pocket of his lab coat, "What do you want from me?"
"Arsenal told me," Nie Yu paused, not intending to beat around the bush: "It's about you and that mermaid."
"So?" Yun Qian raised an eyebrow.
"So, I think we can look at this relationship and continue to study mermaids."
"There is very little research on mermaids in the industry. If we get the opportunity first, this will be a great leap forward."
Nie Yu said, "Are you also interested in Atlantis civilization?"
After Nie Yu finished speaking, Yun Qian didn't speak immediately. After a few seconds of silence, Yun Qian nodded: "I'm very interested."
"But before that, I would like to ask, what are you going to do after studying mermaids?"
When the question got to the point, Nie Yu didn't say anything, but there were some incomprehensible emotions in his eyes.
Yun Qian looked at the person in front of him leisurely, with a leisurely posture, and was not in a hurry to answer.
"Don't want to say? Then let me guess. Do you want to help Arsenal?"
“Helping him get to a higher place.”
Nie Yu's thoughts were completely guessed, and she raised her head in surprise.
Yun Qian didn't fully understand the internal affairs of the mermaid tribe, because it fell asleep gloriously while Muir was telling stories last night.
But it is undeniable that mermaids need to be strong enough to sit in a higher position.
In the original story, the heroine helped Asena become the lord of an entire ocean area.
It's just that this time it's different. With Yun Qian around, Nie Yu can't complete such a task quickly on his own as the story originally planned.
It can be said that Yun Qian became the variable.
"I..." Nie Yu opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything to deny it.
"It's better to let the mermaids solve the internal affairs on their own, and don't try to destroy the balance between the races."
"The sea can be gentle and beautiful, or it can be cruel and unforgiving."
When Yun Qian reached the end, the assistant's voice came from behind him: "Doctor, the next experiment is ready to begin."
"Okay." Yun Qian nodded.
Nie Yu was silent while Yun Qian took out the goggles from his pocket, "You and I are not the only two people in the world who want to study mermaids. You have no way to guarantee what others will do if they master such knowledge and technology."
.........
In the past, Yun Qian was the last one to leave the institute almost every day, but during this period, he got off work at the same time every day. After work, he had to go to the supermarket without hesitation.
The assistant looked at the time and was about to prepare his backpack for leaving get off work on time when a gust of wind blew in front of him.
She raised her eyes and caught the back of their doctor, "Doctor, you are so on time today."
There was a sentence left in the blowing wind that was about to dissipate: "I am in a hurry to go home and raise fish."
fish culture? The assistant scratched the back of his head, wondering why fish should be raised so delicately...
Yun Qian felt that his cooking skills had improved a lot during the time he was raising fish. If he retired in the future, he would still have another craft to support himself.
"Wash the tomatoes for me," Yun Qian glanced at the fish that had been watching her cooking, "Don't eat it secretly."
Muir puffed up his cheeks, picked up a few round tomatoes and put them under the tap: "I won't eat them secretly..."
"Really?" Yun Qian looked at him suspiciously, and then listed Muir's crimes one by one: "Last time you washed the cherry tomatoes, only one-third of them were left after you washed them."
"And none of the potatoes from that time could survive your hands."
"........."
Yun Qian watched as the merman's ears turned red little by little, with his back turned to him, and then he heard an embarrassed voice: "You are not allowed to speak!"
Yun Qian put the fried vegetables on the plate, and Muir took the dishes out and placed them on the dining table naturally. The dishes and chopsticks were already set out.
After the meal, the bowls were naturally handed over to Muir to wash.
Muir has lived at Yun Qian's house for a while, and the fish tank has changed from empty to full, like a warm little room.
As Yun Qian looked at it, he noticed a wooden box in the corner of the fish tank. The wooden box looked a bit like a treasure box from the last century and seemed to be quite old.
She looked back at Muir who was busy in the kitchen, then put her hand into the water to touch the box.
The box was opened, revealing various kinds of gemstones and emeralds, the color of which looked stunning even under water.
Yun Qian: "!!!"
After a while, she shouted with a trembling voice: "Muir..."
When Muir heard this voice, he thought something had happened to Yun Qian, so he ran out without even having time to dry his hands, "What's wrong?"
Yun Qian pointed at the box of jewelry with trembling hands, "You didn't go behind my back to rob me, did you?"
"...Robbery?" Muir repeated Yun Qian's words blankly.
Muir couldn't help but sigh again at how wonderful the human brain circuit is. He walked over, took out the box and put it on the ground. "It's not a robbery."
"I brought these from the sunken ship at the bottom of the sea. There are many more in there."
Yun Qian was a little confused by this overwhelming wealth, "Why did you bring these things here?"
"...I thought it looked good, so I brought it here, can't you?" Muir's tone was a bit weak at first, but he started to become more confident as he spoke.
I didn’t bring it here because I wanted to give it to Yun Qian, no, Muir thought repeatedly in his mind.
Seeing Yun Qian not speaking, Muir suddenly felt a little uneasy, "These... don't you like them?"
"Ah?" Yun Qian blinked.
"Don't you like what I said? Or are these too few?" Muir plucked the top gems with his fingers and suddenly confirmed his statement: "It seems that there are indeed a few."
Yun Qian: "..."
Give me these and you can bury me in the sea.
