In the Babel Base Medical Center, the wards are brightly lit.
The lights were on in the largest treatment room, and two young women were standing at the door.
Therapists have seen what it means to be a docile rabbit that bites when anxious.
A few hours ago, when the tsunami ended and the power supply was restored to the base, the breeder from Area S named Tang Rou pushed the water tank over and asked them to save an experimental subject who was unconscious and suffering from high temperature symptoms.
That was not an ordinary experimental subject. The medical center had received an order three days ago not to rescue it, and at the same time, the identity of the experimental subject was kept secret.
Unexpectedly, the seemingly gentle young girl was like a cat whose tail was stepped on, and her fur exploded.
She blocked the door of the fish vertebrate animal therapist and said expressionlessly, "Check him and prescribe medicine. The fee will be deducted from my salary. If it is not enough, I can renew it. I will find a way to deal with the water tank. Now
, treat him.”
Seeing the therapist's indifferent expression, she showed another fake smile, "You should know that there is another experimental subject numbered SS-17 in my temporary office.
Some time ago, the level four alarm injured more than a hundred S-level creatures, and he is a bit difficult to control..."
The tone sounded like a threat.
Sure enough, the young woman narrowed her eyes slightly, "I can't control him anymore. I don't know if he runs out...if the medical center has enough rescue space."
This is definitely a threat!
The head therapist's face turned pale and he said, "Wait a moment." Then he opened the door and went in to make a call.
After he came out, the expression on his face softened, and he said coldly, "The medical center can temporarily rescue him, but you must take him away."
Tang Rou breathed a sigh of relief, "I can."
When leaving, countless stretchers covered with white sheets were rolled in from the treatment center.
Tang Rou turned sideways and heard what those pushing the stretcher were discussing.
"The synesthesia laboratory was completely destroyed. Twenty-three corpses were electrocuted to death, and another corpse was electrocuted after death. The fatal injury was a cut in the throat that was 4cm long and 2.5cm deep.
"
"What do you mean? His throat was cut?"
"Yes, and the place of death should not be in the synesthesia laboratory. It is said that the access card is also missing."
I'm afraid another experiment failed and resulted in the death of a colleague.
Tang Rou had no intention of inquiring into the dead man's gossip, so she held her breath and walked all the way to the door, where Aslan was waiting for her.
"How about it? Did they agree to save it?"
Tang Rou nodded tiredly, "Agreed."
Aslan also breathed a sigh of relief, "That's great."
Five hours ago, she and Tang Rou found the unconscious mermaid in the corridor on the 37th floor.
Four hours ago, the tsunami stopped, the city gradually restored power and elevators started running again.
Aslan didn't have time to ask Tang Rou about the identity of this blond beauty. He accompanied her to move the person into the bathroom. He watched her find the cart used by the base to transport experimental subjects and filled it with water. Then she supported him and put him in the bathroom.
The person was carefully lifted into the water.
As soon as he sat in the water, something happened under his soft, water-soaked nightgown.
The slender legs turned into a wide and dreamy fish tail, and the edges of the silver-white scales outlined a thrilling blue.
This turned out to be a mermaid.
Aslan didn't react until everything was over.
She asked Tang Rou nonchalantly, "Is that a mermaid?"
Tang Rou nodded.
She asked again, "Aren't mermaids mythical creatures? Aren't they made up by people?"
Tang Rou couldn't help but say, "I have told you since I was a child that I have seen mermaids."
Atherland only thought that it was Tang Rou's mistake because she was young, but she didn't expect it to be true...
But she had been stimulated enough today, and she actually felt that the existence of mermaids in the world was not unacceptable.
Both she and Tang Rou witnessed the scene where the entire building was pulled into darkness. They saw it very clearly in the real world instead of in a dream.
But at a certain moment, the pitch-black material covering the window and the mutated humanoid creatures surrounding them disappeared, disappearing like a mirage.
As if everything was just a short-lived, collective illusion.
The rescue team that arrived from the base did not find the strange creatures that could suck blood and turn into humans as they mentioned, but they found corpses whose blood had been drained one by one.
So where did all those strange creatures go?
Why... evaporate out of thin air?
Several incidents of sea monsters attacking cities were announced on the news, claiming to have been controlled by the military. The spokesperson of the coalition, with an upright face, told everyone on live television not to panic.
In addition, the media is full of posts, with many people saying that people around them go crazy and start attacking people for no reason.
Some people...disappeared.
Not surprisingly, these posts disappeared not long after they were published and were forced to 404.
Because too many people died in the apartment building at the base, the military sealed off the building to investigate. Tang Rou and the others were informed that they could not go back to live for the time being.
It happened that the logistics department called Tang Rou and said that the previously destroyed laboratory had been repaired and could be restored to use. Tang Rou planned to sleep in the office for a few days to cope with the situation.
Aslan and she had barely slept a wink all night, and now they were both physically and mentally exhausted, so they parted ways and went back to their offices to rest.
Tang Rou planned to go to the renovated office to take a look first.
Unexpectedly, I saw someone squatting in front of my office door from a distance.
The slender body was bent into a flexible and curled up posture, the slender arms hugged the legs, and there was not even an inch of hair on the body.
Probably the sound of her footsteps disturbed the other person. The person looked up from the arms surrounding her, revealing a pair of eyes red from crying.
"soft."
A clear single tone was mixed with too many emotions, and those eyes became more and more moist, hiding deep sorrow.
The moment I saw her, I felt so wronged.
Even he himself didn't know where this grievance came from.
"Sea Hare?"
Tang Rou was stunned for a moment, then walked over quickly, took off her coat and covered him.
The owner's soft fingertips inevitably rubbed his skin.
At the moment of physical contact, the boy trembled first, and then like a vine that had not seen the sun for a long time, eager to grasp this ray of warmth.
He hurriedly got into her arms and wrapped his slender limbs tightly around her.
He buried his head into her neck as if crying, hooked his fingers in her hair, and curled himself into her arms.
"It's me, I'm here to find you, Rou..."
While she was talking nonsense, Shuli's thin red lips were almost close to her neck, and with her movements, she felt a soft and cool touch like jelly, and bursts of misty water vapor.
"Rou, Rou... I miss you so much."
After saying that, he gasped twice, the tip of his nose and the end of his eyes turned red, and he could not control his emotions.
The fine eyelashes cover the pupils of the eyes, suppressing the look of obsession.
Tang Rou was surprised by the complete words in his mouth. She hadn't seen him in a short period of time, and Sea Bunny was now speaking more and more smoothly and clearly.
But one can never guess under what circumstances a simple and clean deep-sea creature would have a lot of conversations with another person and learn a lot of things that he has never been exposed to before.
The white paper was dyed with thick ink and colors, and the colors became unified again.
