After the little mermaid had eaten and drank enough, it completely stuck to him and couldn't get rid of it. Even though the whole body was only half a foot long, the little guy's small arms as thin as chopsticks were really strong when he held them up - and to be honest
Hao Ren didn't dare to pull Dou Dou off his arm. He was afraid of hurting the skinny little one, but it wasn't a big deal if he just spent it like this!
Early the next morning, Hao Ren appeared in front of everyone with dark circles under his eyes. The bean was still hanging on his arm, looking like an armband from a distance. Because the little guy refused to let go, Hao Ren didn't even have any clothes yesterday.
After changing, he just slept in his clothes all night, and because he was afraid of crushing the little one while sleeping, he only slept for two or three hours in total. Naturally, he yawned all day long.
Lily was packing her things and seemed to be getting ready to go out to work (the dogs in the back streets should be vaccinated). She was shocked when she saw Hao Ren's appearance: "Ah! Landlord, you just left her hanging like this all night?"
"What else can I do if I don't hang on her?" Hao Ren raised his arm, "She was fine before feeding her yesterday. Why does she become more and more clingy after that? She doesn't even want to go to the water basin."
The little mermaid was actually not that clingy when it was first hatched. Hao Ren still remembered that he could easily transfer the little mermaid to the water basin, and the latter himself would jump out of the water and wander around like an explorer.
, but as time went by, Doudou's clinginess increased abnormally, and now hanging on her arm all night has obviously reached a certain extreme. Now she refuses to go into the basin, moves on her own, and even refuses to move.
She was willing to let go - obviously when Hao Ren went to the house to get her something to eat yesterday, the little one could still stay by herself for a while.
Nangong Wuyue also felt that something was not right about Doudou. She stepped forward and carefully put her finger in front of the little guy's eyes. The latter stared at the finger very cleverly and turned his head around. His tail also flapped happily.
, but other than that, she still refused to let go. She did not immediately pounce on something new and curious like she did yesterday.
"She is very energetic, and her body should be fine." Nangong Wuyue gently touched the smooth scales of the little mermaid, "It must be a psychological condition... She seemed to be confused about the surrounding environment, so she found the things she was most familiar with.
Holding it."
"Confused?" Hao Ren was a little surprised, "Confused about what?"
"First, the environment here is not the bottom of the sea after all. The little guy must feel that there is something weird around him," Nangong Wuyue analyzed. "Based on the rapid growth of this child after hatching, the cubs of this mermaid race have quite high intelligence, and
Being able to judge the surrounding situation since she was born, she probably gradually discovered that this place is not suitable for survival... It cannot be said that it is not suitable for survival. It should be that it does not meet the environmental characteristics recorded in her genetic memory. The second and most important point:
She can't communicate with us. As I said just now, Doudou is quite smart and has a very high IQ right after hatching. I guess the cubs of this race should be able to communicate with other adult individuals to a certain extent as soon as they are born, but we
I can't even understand her mumblings. She doesn't know what we're doing."
"So she's scared?" Hao Ren said as he guided Doudou into a comfortable position and lay in the crook of his arm. After all, the little one must be quite tired hanging there like this all the time. Judging from Doudou's performance
I couldn't tell that this guy had any fear: she was still curious about her surroundings and looked excited. When she lay down, she even made a "purring" sound, which seemed to express her satisfaction.
"Think about the first time your mother took you to the zoo when you were a child. Were you hiding in your mother's arms at that time?" Nangong Wuyue put her hands on her hips. "The most important thing now is to find a way to understand this."
What are you thinking? It’s too difficult to raise cross-racial children.”
Hao Ren nodded quickly. The language difference was the biggest difficulty facing these half-hearted guardians: if they could communicate with the little mermaid, it wouldn't be a problem. As long as the little one could solve his confusion, she wouldn't be so clingy.
But the problem is that the little guy can't speak at all - a cub just one day old. How do you communicate?
At this time, Lily suddenly said from the side: "Why don't you discuss it with Raven?"
Hao Ren was stunned for two seconds, wishing he could hit his head on the tofu: He didn't expect that such a simple thing would be reminded by a husky!
Lily spread her hands: "I'm just two, I'm not stupid..."
"Terminal, pick up Raven 12345." Hao Ren called to himself, and the data terminal immediately floated out and started dialing. Doudou immediately became happy when he saw this strange glowing thing, patting his tail and asking Hao Ren to grab the terminal.
She tasted the taste, but was ignored.
"Hao Ren? What's the matter?" Raven 12345's voice sounded a little anxious, as if he was busy working, "What happened to the egg?"
"Hatched!"
"Ha?!" Raven 12345 exclaimed, and then Hao Ren heard an explosion and a strange air scream in the background. He was shocked: "What are you doing over there?"
"It's okay, I'm dueling with someone, what do you think?" Raven 12345 said quickly, "Hatched out so quickly?"
Hao Ren knew that the daily life of Raven 12345 could not be measured by common sense, so he did not ask what the duel was about, but took the time to introduce the situation of the little mermaid, and finally mentioned the inability to communicate and that he was misunderstood by the mermaid baby.
Thinking about mom’s problem: “The biggest difficulty now is that none of us can understand what this little thing is saying—she can’t understand us either. The little thing doesn’t seem to realize that this is where she will live forever.
Now it's hanging on me and won't come off."
Raven 12345 paused for a moment: "Well, it can actually be cooked... But it requires communication. This is really difficult for a newborn cub, but according to what you said, the little guy's
Her intelligence should be enough, as long as she can understand what you say... Nangong Wuyue, you should be able to do it."
"Me?" The siren girl looked stunned, "I can't understand it either, and how many times have I said that I am a siren, not a mermaid!"
"It has nothing to do with the mermaid, it's your innate ability to communicate with the deep-sea races. The sea monster can communicate with any deep-sea creature, even the deep-sea creatures from another world, but this is the creation god of another pantheon a long time ago.
I downloaded the lazy program to test new biological templates. It seems that this plug-in has been automatically logged out after you have evolved for so many years. I will try to activate it for you and maybe it can still be used."
Raven 12345 spoke so easily and naturally about the Creator God's inactivity, which made Hao Ren and Nangong Wuyue break into a cold sweat. The latter asked with a strange expression: "Then what should I do?"
"Go out and find an open space. This goddess will give you thousands of miles... uh, remote transmission of power. By the way, take off electronic products such as mobile phones, as they may cause interference."
Nangong Wuyue was confused, but he thought that the other party was the "goddess sister" and should at least be trustworthy in terms of strength, so he didn't think much about it, took out his phone and threw it on the sofa before going out.
Hao Ren thought for a while and felt that the raven might be tricking people again, but before he could call the siren girl back, he heard a "click" and a thunderbolt sound outside the door.
Nangong Wuyue pushed open the door and walked in with an afro: "...I will never trust her again from now on."
The voice of Raven 12345 was still yelling from the side: "The method is a bit drastic but the effect is good! It has been successfully activated. You can try it according to the method I told you...I am very busy here so I will hang up first."
Nangong went to the water room to wash her face in May. When she came back, she asked Hao Ren to sit down on the sofa. She carefully placed her fingers on Doudou's forehead: "Let me give it a try. Don't have too much hope."
Vivian and Yzaks, who had heard the news and came over, and Lily, who had been watching the excitement, all came together. A circle of people stared at Nangong Wuyue's results in receiving the "Thousand Miles of Kung Fu". Hao Ren
He felt that he was sweating all over his neck because of nervousness - then when he looked up, it turned out that it was Lily standing behind him drinking water again.
The exchange between Big Fish and Little Fish lasted for more than ten seconds. Doudou suddenly looked at Nangong Wuyue in surprise, and the latter breathed a sigh of relief: "Huh...it looks like it was successful."
Hao Ren let out a long sigh and immediately urged Nangong Wuyue: "Hurry up and let this little guy understand the situation here - the most important thing is to let her understand that I am not her mother!"
"Come on, let me talk to her slowly." Nangong Wuyue nodded and carefully took Dou Dou out of Hao Ren's arms. Strangely enough, after some wonderful connection was established, the little mermaid seemed to be interested in
Nangong Wuyue also gained a lot of trust and actually let go of Hao Ren's clothes - even though he turned his head and screamed a few times before being picked up, he didn't sound panic anymore, as if he was just saying goodbye.
Nangong Wuyue carried the little mermaid to her room to communicate with him. It is estimated that the latter will be more sensible when he comes out. Hao Ren was relieved. The first thing he did was to go back to the house and change into clean clothes: his clothes were still the same as before.
The one I wore when I went to an alien planet, I didn’t even get a chance to change out of it yesterday!
When he came out, he found that Nangong Wuyue was already waiting in the living room with the little guy in his arms. Hao Ren was a little surprised: "So soon?"
"It's similar to spiritual communication, the speed is very fast, and she is also very smart." Nangong Wuyue's expression was a little strange, "Basically, I explained the situation clearly... the little one will slowly adapt to this place."
Hao Ren was quite happy: "So now she knows I'm not her mother?"
"About this... there is bad news and good news," Nangong Wuyue smiled dryly, "Which one do you want to hear first?"
Hao Ren's expression froze on the spot. He felt that the situation might be a trap: "... Let's make a deal first."
"Doudou really understands that you are not her mother," Nangong Wuyue handed the little mermaid into Hao Ren's arms, "She thinks you are her father. And to be honest - as a guardian, your identity is correct."
Hao Ren thought the news was good or bad, but he still nodded: "It's okay as a father, at least it's not as embarrassing as being a mother. As long as she doesn't be too clingy in the future. What about the bad news?"
Nangong Wuyue reached out and took out a pot from behind: "This is the child's mother."
