Chapter 69 The Fragrance of Tea and the Stupid Beauty
Tang Rou had just walked off the front foot when a call from the back foot medical center had already been made to the top management of the Tower of Babel.
"She's gone."
"Yes, she took the SP test body away."
Someone opened the door and took a look outside the corridor. When he came back, he continued, "It seems that he is back in his office."
-
Alphinaud has always been a particularly obedient experimental subject.
But this obedience requires a special prerequisite, that is, when facing Tang Rou.
The experimental cabin, which he regarded as vulnerable, could no longer control him. She would stay quietly inside because Tang Rou liked to be good.
So he happily acted as a docile and well-behaved person, clinging to her and waiting eagerly for her.
The sound of the door lock turning was heard from the office door. The young man immediately opened the hatch and stretched out his graceful and pale upper body. His frosty face softened.
"soft."
This call was filled with too much moisture and unspeakable desires.
Hot and gentle.
Soon, the owner's figure appeared behind the door. He couldn't restrain his joy and almost climbed out of the water tank.
"Rou, you are back..."
But at this moment, his eyes caught something.
The young man's pupils were locked tightly and he looked behind her intently.
what is that?
"On the 17th, I will introduce you to a new friend."
Tang Rou had always felt that No. 17 was a very well-behaved child, like a puppy wagging its tail begging for mercy, sticking to her side every day and reaching out its tentacles to wrap around her quietly at every turn.
But such an obedient child fell into great hostility the moment he saw the mermaid.
The originally gentle translucent tentacles instantly elongated, becoming ferocious and filled with a sense of violence, lingering on the ceiling like dark clouds.
The mermaid hugged Tang Rou's neck, buried her face behind her, and trembled her eyelashes, as if she was afraid.
But she didn't know that No. 17's reaction at this moment was a state of stress after encountering danger.
He was anxious, but the language system was incomplete, preventing him from explaining his intentions.
"Rou...he..."
It's very dangerous, stay away from him.
Tang Rou obviously couldn't understand what he meant, and said helplessly, "Alfino, he is injured and needs our help. Can you be more friendly?"
No. 17 became even more anxious and said helplessly, "He didn't..."
"there is nothing?"
Where she was nowhere to be seen, the blonde fishtail beauty raised the corners of her lips, revealing a slight sarcasm.
No. 17 was immediately irritated, swallowed the rest of his words, his eyes were calm, and his whole body was covered with a gloomy aura.
The tentacles hover above the head with eager eyes, like poisonous snakes that bite their prey at any time.
"Get out of the way, Rou."
He said coldly.
Tang Rou nervously blocked the mermaid back, "Alfino, don't be like this..."
The mermaid quietly approached her ear and asked in a low voice, "Am I causing trouble for you?"
Tang Rou shook her head, "No, don't think about it."
His two slender white arms hooked her neck, the tip of his tongue licked the slightly dry thin lips, and his tone was low:
"He doesn't seem to like me, otherwise, I would leave..."
"It's okay." Tang Rou gave him a reassuring smile, "Alfino is a good boy, he just comes into contact with too few people. Just get used to it if you get along more."
The mermaid seemed to have a good temper and nodded gently.
Tang Rou grasped the nearest tentacle again. As soon as the tense thing was touched by her, it immediately retracted its sharp corners and became as soft as jelly.
"No. 17, will you be obedient?"
She gently pinched the tip of the antennae and shook it from side to side, "Don't you even listen to me?"
The young octopus couldn't resist her teasing at all, and her soft voice was like a feather passing by his ears, arousing an unspeakable itch.
Especially her hand holding the tentacle was warm and soft.
After being shaken twice, the young man immediately became confused and forgot his initial sullenness. The last trace of reason supported him and he opened his dark green eyes wide and shook his head anxiously.
He spoke with a bit of breath and trembling, "No, no, it's okay..."
"I'll buy you some candy." She easily grasped the weakness of this aggressive experimental subject as if coaxing a child, "Alfino, you are the most obedient, right?"
"Yes..." He nodded, quickly came to his senses, and anxiously hooked her wrist, "No!"
"..."
The mermaid lazily hooked the human woman's neck, and said angrily, "I'm sorry, I'm a little thirsty..."
Tang Rou was immediately attracted by him, broke away from No. 17's tentacles, and touched the mermaid's scales which were somewhat dry due to lack of water.
"Wait me a moment."
As she spoke, she picked up the disposable paper cup on the table and poured a glass of water.
But the mermaid's body was extremely weak, and her forehead rested on her shoulder, unable to raise her hands.
Tang Rou fed him the water with her own hands.
The thin red lips held the mouth of the cup, and the mermaid swallowed cautiously, as if even the weak action of drinking water would scratch the wound, and her eyebrows were lightly furrowed, like a frightened butterfly.
"Drink a little first, and I'll give you some nutrients later."
"Yes." He responded softly, his voice empty and gentle, "Thank you."
Tang Rou smiled, "Don't be polite to me, I will give you more advice in the future."
There was a click, and a crack opened on the edge of the water tank where the octopus youth was imprisoned.
At this moment, the tentacle came across and grabbed her wrist bone calmly. The dark-haired young man looked gloomy and pulled Tang Rou away from the merman.
His voice was cold, like ice cubes in his mouth, "Don't, touch him..."
Tang Rou felt that No. 17 was getting more and more irritable, "Relax, No. 17."
The young man froze and looked at Tang Rou in disbelief.
The owner also looked at him, frowning slightly.
It's a look of disappointment.
He stiffened all over and opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything. He held her stubbornly with his tentacles and pursed his thin lips, as if he had been wronged.
"soft……"
There were so many emotions in this voice.
It's a pity that Tang Rou has already turned back, squatting in front of the merman and talking to him softly.
"There is no water tank here. I will find one. Please wait for me."
The mermaid nodded again and sat quietly in the small water tank of the cart with her tail curled up.
Tang Rou turned back to No. 17 and said, "Alphinaud, be friendly, be obedient, and don't lose your temper." At the same time, she looked at the merman with a pointed look, "Look, they are very friendly to you."
The scarred mermaid huddled behind Tang Rou and looked at him cautiously.
Take the initiative to say hello, "Hello."
The dark-haired young man was speechless.
For the first time, he had such a strong sense of crisis. His pupils narrowed and he stared at the uninvited guest.
Human beings are seemingly complex, yet extremely simple creatures.
They are so weak, have no defense ability, are easily hurt, and will die if they are not careful.
It is also easy to be soft-hearted and to relax rationality towards the "weak".
Human beings are more willing to believe that disadvantaged groups are right, often stand on the disadvantaged side, and lose the ability to look at problems rationally.
The misunderstanding of human nature is irrational sympathy for the weak.
Before Tang Rou left, the mermaid said to her softly, "Please come back soon."
His eyelashes trembled slightly, as if he was uneasy.
Tang Rou stroked his hair, "Don't be afraid, Alphinaud won't hurt you." Then she asked the gloomy half-octopus young man, "Right, Alphinaud?"
The other person turned his head and avoided her sight, obviously sulking.
Tang Rou secretly laughed at the childish temper and left the office.
The all-metal door panel closed with a soft sound, and the inside and outside of the door were separated into two worlds.
Under the heatless light of the incandescent lamp, the frail mermaid in front of her was still covered in injuries, and her aura suddenly changed subtly.
