Chapter 516 Look, there’s a mermaid (4)
Since the first time, there will definitely be many, many times in the future.
Yun Qian felt like a mother who had to pick up her children after work. She could only go early, but if she left late, the children would splash water in your face if they made a fuss.
The wheelchair became Muir's special "throne", and Yun Qian's neighbors upstairs and downstairs all knew that the little girl had found a "disabled" boyfriend.
Yun Qian heard several discussions among neighbors about Muir's "disability", but Yun Qian always pretended not to hear it.
After all, if Muir really stood up, he would probably scare them away.
The first time Muir felt his neighbors looking at him with regretful eyes, he frowned and asked, "Why do they look at me like that?"
"They think you're good-looking." Yun Qian said without blushing or heartbeat.
Muir expressed his doubts: "Really?"
Yun Qian nodded, "Definitely."
"........."
Someone took advantage of the fact that the fish didn't quite understand human language, and had already begun to fool the fish in whatever way he wanted.
It was not a good statement in the first place, and Muir didn't need to know.
Because Muir needed to stay in the water, Yun Qian customized a large rectangular fish tank and placed it in the open space against the wall of the living room.
The fish tank was made of pure glass without any decoration. Muir was very dissatisfied with his temporary residence at first.
"You just put me in a box??"
Yun Qian patted the fish tank and said, "What do you mean by a box? This is a fish tank specially customized for you. It's not cheap at all."
Hearing that it was specially customized for him, Muir's lips curled up quietly, but he quickly suppressed it, pretending to accept it reluctantly: "Okay then, I'll just fall asleep."
Yun Qian couldn't laugh or cry, Muir was not only a mermaid princess, but also the Princess and the Pea among mermaids.
But every time he brought fish back from the sea, Muir would bring back some "specialties" from the sea. Sometimes they were shells larger than a palm, sometimes they were brightly colored corals, and sometimes they were underwater shellfish. beautiful pearls.
Yun Qian lay beside the bathtub and watched Muir decorate the fish tank little by little like a beautiful and warm room.
"That pearl should be worth a lot of money." Yun Qian pointed to the pearl that was almost as big as a palm.
Muir had no idea about human money. He tilted his head and said, "Such things can be found everywhere under the sea."
Yun Qian suddenly became interested, "Is there anything special about the deep sea where you live?"
Muir placed the last pearl in the corner. When he turned around, his expression was a little arrogant: "You want to know?"
Yun Qian nodded.
Muir blinked and said nothing, just looking at Yun Qian. After so many days of getting along, Yun Qian could easily guess the mermaid's little thoughts.
She held out three fingers: "Three bowls of noodles and three of your favorite honey-glazed large roasted wings."
Muir's blue eyes brightened significantly, and his expression was joyful.
"There are many sunken ships in the sea. We like to play in them. There will be colorful gems in the sunken ships. Other mermaids like to hold belts, but I don't like it."
Yun Qian almost fell into the water without squatting down.
That's good stuff, my silly fish.
"There are many corals, and our palace..."
Muir continued to talk a lot, which was about the world that humans have not recognized, and Yun Qian was somewhat fascinated by it.
Moreover, some of the things Muir said were consistent with the records in ancient books, which made Yun Qian have to wonder whether the person who wrote that ancient book had also seen a mermaid.
"Okay, the story is over, can I have some noodles?" Muir stood on the edge of the fish tank, his long silver hair spread on his bare back.
Yun Qian laughed, "Okay, just wait for me for a while."

Arsenal is missing.
This is the biggest thing that has happened in the institute in recent days.
A whole team of researchers were sitting in the office discussing related countermeasures, and Nie Yu didn't look very good.
Isn't it at Nie Yu's house? Yun Qian thought.
Arsenal destroyed the instruments in the laboratory. The water in the container flooded the entire laboratory. Even some instruments such as computers were flooded and short-circuited. Technicians were making emergency repairs.
Yun Qian tapped the pen on the table again and again, and the sound was lost in the conversation of the researchers.
The laboratory cannot trap the mermaid in the first place. The mermaid is willing to stay in a small container just because of Nie Yu.
The research subject was gone, and the group research could only be put on hold for the time being. It was rare that Yun Qian returned home early today, and she did not plan to take Muir home.
But not long after Yun Qian returned home, Nie Yu came to the door.
Yun Qian was a little surprised when she opened the door and saw Nie Yu. She raised her eyebrows and asked, "Dr. Nie, do you have anything to do with me?"
Nie Yu nodded: "Can I go in and talk?"
Yun Qian turned sideways to let people in.
Nie Yu sat on the sofa and inevitably glanced at the large fish tank in the corner of the living room, "This fish tank..."
"Ah, it's used to raise fish." Yun Qian said.
It is indeed used to raise fish, but this fish is a bit big.
"But why is there not a single fish inside?"
Yun Qian choked, "I just bought it, I haven't had time to buy fish yet."
Nie Yu nodded and looked away from the fish tank.
"I came to you to ask you to do me a favor." Nie Yu said.
Yun Qian was confused, "Is it about Arsenal?"
"Yes, there are not many people who study mermaids in the institute, and you are the most outstanding among them..." Nie Yu hesitated, "And only you know that Asena and I... have some relationship."
Nie Yu looked sincere and seemed eager to find Arsenal.
Yunqian's partner Nie Yu poured a glass of water and put it in front of her, "Asena is so familiar with you, hasn't he mentioned anything to you?"
"I only found out about his departure this time the next day," Nie Yu said.
"So you want to go to the deep sea?"
What kind of great power of love is this? Yun Qian murmured in her heart.
Nie Yu was silent for a moment.
"We still don't know what dangers there are in the deep sea, and that's the mermaid's territory. If we rush in rashly, it will only be worse than last time." Yun Qian said calmly.
For unknown areas, without sufficient understanding and grasp, the best choice is to live in peace.
Nie Yu knew it, but he was still worried, "The winner in the mermaid world is king, I'm just a little worried."
Yun Qian was about to say something, but there was another knock on the door.
Her head was filled with questions. Is today a good day to come to her house?
Yun Qian asked Nie Yu to sit down first and opened the door herself.
Unexpectedly, standing outside the door was Muir, who drank the witch's potion and his fish tail turned into human legs.
Muir was very dissatisfied with Yun Qian opening the door so late, "You're so slow..."
Yun Qian: "..."
Next time she should try to learn how to flash.
