MTL - Mermaid Effect-Chapter 1

It was a hot summer.

After many years, Rand could not explain the specific day of the day, but he was sure that it was an extremely hot summer day.

The air is unusually humid and stuffy, and even the violent sea breeze does not make Rand a little better. A lot of salt was mixed in the wind and blew on his skin. When he came out of the car, he could barely say that the dry clothes quickly became heavy and sticky, as well as his hair and clothes.

"damn it."

Rand took off his glasses and laboriously rubbed the lens with his hand.

The tiny drops of water splashed on the lens cast a stain on his lens, even after wiping the lens.

"Hey, you better be careful."

A rude voice remembered. Rand squinted his eyes and looked down, and Reis Noah was yelling at him there. Of course, with Rand's vision, now he can only see the vague shadow of Reis.

"Don't wear glasses, nerd!" Rand's blinking action was too obvious. Similarly, his overly clumsy behavior made Luis's tone rude. "From the reef, your noble one." The head won't feel good."

The coastline of the Blue Moon Coast is covered with reefs of various types. At the same time, it has been washed by huge waves that have never stopped. Almost all the rocks are very slippery. If it is really lost, it will be very troublesome. Things.

And Rand... Les's eyes fell on the little white face: high-end handmade shirts, Italian leather shoes.

For God's sake, does he really know that he is interviewing?

Taking into account the identity of Rand, Reis put forward his own reminder of cold and disgusting.

Rand frowned and clumsily put the glasses back on.

Now, Reis's impatient face became clearer. He was carefully climbing up from the other side of the reef. The camera was hung around his neck and he was holding stones from time to time.

Rand wants to remind him of this, but in the end it is still silent.

Getting along with each other these days makes him clearly aware of the other person's impatience and disdain for him.

Ok, this is understandable.

Rand was forced into the newspaper by Vincent Sifus, his brother, the legendary "big man". Prior to this, there had never been a journalist with a qualification of less than ten years in the entire Deny Black News office. They are very proud of it - even though the circulation of this newspaper is only one-tenth of the previous one - and it has been bought by Vincent, this arrogance still exists.

Perhaps this is why the circulation of Deny Black News is only one tenth of the previous one.

Of course, it is impossible for Rand to disclose the evaluation of his brother to the people in front of him. In fact, he must admit that entering the newspaper did cause a lot of trouble for others... just like before.

Rand's clumsiness and indifference have always caused him a lot of trouble, even though he has a good appearance, black curls and wonderful green eyes, pale skin makes him look more like a fresh graduate. Not a former librarian who spent five years in the town, now a rookie and reporter.

"Do we want to continue?"

In the process of his daze, Reis had panted and climbed onto the reef where he was. Rand looked at the dusty face of the other side and asked with some slyness.

Luis gave him a huge white eye.

"Continue? Are you crazy? Under this, I didn't see anything... Damn, I should have known what kind of virtues these ignorant town residents are. They even think that the night kite will be exaggerated. Is ufo!"

"But before they provided a photo of the mermaid..."

Rand whispered.

There is no reason why he and Reis will appear on the beach. A video of a small town near the Blue Moon coast that recently ran out on the Internet - a huge mermaid sat on the reef and jumped into the sea with incredible movements as the waves hit.

The video quality of the group was rather vague, but it still caused a small discussion boom on the Internet (of course, just "small").

Prior to this, Denny Black News was forced to move to a small city less than 100 kilometers away from the expensive office rental fees, and the entire newspaper is being revised, adding various lace news and even constellation notices to work hard. Recover their declining circulation.

In summary, two unlucky ones were sent here for interviews.

These two unlucky ones are naturally Rand and Reis.

Reis is quite dissatisfied with this, and Rand knows this. The reef on the video where the mermaid is located is located on the side of the reef from the side of the reef, and Rand's sad movement coordination ability has forced him to stay above the gentle reef.

He can't even make basic photos, as for interviews...

Ok, the reef can't speak to him.

Rand couldn't help but feel that his breathing had become more laborious when he thought of the strange eyes and whispers that he was about to come back to after the newspaper.

Well, of course, no return will cause any substantial harm to him. "The man" bought the newspaper after all, and he is his brother. However, this is not likely to avoid other people's strange attitude towards Rand, and Rand hates this.

He found that he even began to miss the old ladies in the small town library, and even the old ladies who wore wool to the reading room to play sweaters.

"Maybe... oh... maybe you can stay for a while, maybe we can have other discoveries."

Rand said dryly.

At this time, Luis had taken off his shoes and dumped the sand in his shoes, ready to go to the parking lot. After hearing his words, Les returned to give him a cold smile, his disgust almost overflowing.

"If you want, of course you can."

He said that he then gave the recording pen and camera to Rand, and he drove away the tattered old Ford.

Obviously, he did not intend to continue the interview with Rand.

Rand frowned and stared at the empty parking lot, leaving only his car. Another strong wind blew, and he looked back at the gray sea and the huge waves. Suddenly there was an illusion that there was only one person in the world.

He was silent for a while, silently returning to the reef where he was, trying to climb down.

Without the presence of Reis, he felt that he might not be so nervous, and that less nervous means that his movements might not be so stiff, allowing him to reach the bottom of the reef.

He did, too, although his hand was scratched by shellfish on the reef. Rand looked at his hand and kept bleeding out of his blood. He smiled helplessly and then sat weakly on the huge reef.

There is still a distance of five or six meters from the sea. Even the waves can only be hit here occasionally, and the other side of the reef is also very smooth due to the erosion of the waves.

Rand hesitantly looked at the other side of the reef and thought about it or not. He had overestimated his physical strength once and did not want to make a second wrong judgment.

However, the mermaid - if it does exist - is incredibly easy to climb the reef.

Even if it was confirmed in the heart that the video was forged, Rand still felt very interesting.

The wind was still wet, his wounds were dull, but when the things that made him feel nervous disappeared, the long-lost feeling of relaxation returned to Rand.

The waves regularly beat the shore, and the climate on the Blue Moon Coast is too harsh. Even the gulls are not willing to go out. The waves and fog are gray, mixing the borders of the sky and the sea, and the sun is hanging in the air, as if the body is heavy and gradually falls. Rand stayed on the reef until dark, as Rees said, there is nothing here.

Rand finally decided to go back after he got the long-lost solitude time, but until this time he suddenly realized that it was not good. The reef in the darkness was almost confused with the night, and he wanted to go back and he had to touch the black. Climb.

"This is really bad."

Rand smiled bitterly.

He really made a point that he really is not suitable for an interview.

But staying on the reef for a whole night in the dark is not a wise decision. Rand heard the sound of the waves getting stronger and stronger, and the tide is coming soon.

He subconsciously took out his cell phone and opened a flash of light toward the reef to try to see the bumps on the reef.

It was at this time that the reflex of a reef in the reef caused the attention of Rand.

At first he thought it was stagnant water, or something else, but after a few lightings, he suddenly realized that something was wrong.

The round two-point fluorescence is absolutely impossible to be caused by stagnant water, and he is also familiar with the kind of reflection... more like the reflection of the cat's eyes when the cat is accidentally photographed in the dark.

Rand felt that his heartbeat was quickened in a flash.

He stayed here for an entire afternoon, but never felt any creature behind him.

"Who?"

In horror he even stupidly asked. 2k novel reading network
