MTL - Mermaid Feeding Rules-Chapter 81
Boyce remembered the singing that Collins had mentioned before before going to bed, but Boyce had not had time to ask Garcia some time ago. After checking in the research institute, he found that only the two breeders of S-5 mentioned the song. vocabulary.
The predecessor left the words "please forgive me I can never respond to your singing" in the record, and the latter breeder Blake was a sofia of s-5, and the singing was heard more than once in his records, but the singing Only appeared when he first entered the institute, and the singing he heard also disappeared shortly after the previous breeder left the institute.
And Boyce looked up the time and found that that time coincided with the period when the receptors on her body began to dormant.
Boyce has now speculated that the singing must have something to do with the receptors and the merman's courtship, but it has not been determined yet, and I don't know how much it will be different from what Garcia said.
"Garcia, what is the singing?" Boyce asked directly.
Garcia was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting Boyce to take the initiative to ask this question. In the previous period, Boyce had not responded to the singing, and Garcia felt a little frustrated.
Hearing that Boyce finally began to ask this question, Garcia's face flashed with joy, guessing that Boyce no longer deliberately ignored the singing as he did some time ago, then looked at him seriously, and explained, "It's courtship."
"Only during the breeding season do they sing and attract their sofia..." Garcia said, looking at Boyce, hoping to get some response from him.
However, beyond Garcia's expectations, Boyce's face showed a bit of contemplation after listening to Garcia's words.
Garcia looked at his expression, and his mood changed with Boyce's.
"Is there only one person who can hear it?" Boyce asked again with some uncertainty.
"Yes." Garcia nodded, "Only the sofia of every mermaid can hear his singing."
Then Boyce finally seemed to remember something, and a flash of enlightenment flashed on his face: "I understand."
What Collins heard should be s-24's song for courtship, so Boyce couldn't hear it, and the mermaid's voice seems to have a spiritual induction effect on humans, plus s-24 was on Collins before he left last time. What was left, the cyan mermaid should be able to control Collins easily.
Boyce thought of this and was a little worried about Collins' situation, but it seemed that Collins' situation was fine a few days ago, and there were people around him watching him.
Boyce thought for a while, now "Professor Chris", that is, Ivey, is letting the research institute do its best to study the solution to the side effects. Boyce is a little more relaxed now than some time ago, and I can just take some time to see it tomorrow. Look at Collins.
Then drop by Anthony's place to inquire about the situation.
After all these were arranged, Boyce looked at Garcia next to him. He kept looking at him, but he didn't speak much, and there was a faint message of "I'm not happy" on his body to deliberately let Boyce notice. Arriving, remembering the topic he had just mentioned with Garcia, Boyce's face suddenly had a hint of enlightenment.
But there are still many issues that have not yet been resolved. Regarding courtship and transformation, Boyce originally wanted to wait until he left the institute before thinking about it.
Boyce looked in Garcia's direction, he and Boyce looked at each other, and it seemed that he really wanted to get a response from Boyce.
Garcia has always been aware of Boyce's hesitation in conversion and courtship. He also remembered that Boyce always emphasized that he was not his "sofia" when they first met, so more often, Garcia did not It will not be mentioned directly in front of Boyce, but will be alluded to him in various ways.
Boyce was hesitant for a moment about what response Garcia said "singing is for courtship".
And he looked at Garcia. Although he didn't say it explicitly, he still vaguely wanted to get an answer from Boyce. Boyce looked at him and suddenly felt a little soft-hearted.
Boyce originally wanted to say that he still needs some time to think about it.
However, looking at Garcia, Boyce felt that he rarely gave him a positive response.
Even after thinking about it for a while, the answer seems to be the same.
Boyce's heart began to shake, if that's the case, when would he give him a response, shouldn't it make any difference?
Garcia watched the person on the opposite side remain silent, and flicked his tail to the side irritably, bringing down the stool next to him, also awakening Boyce who was thinking.
Boyce looked at Garcia, because he finally made a decision, with a bit of relief on his face. He looked at Garcia and remembered to summon up his courage: "Can I hear you sing after we leave the institute?"
Garcia was stunned for a moment, then his face showed joy, his tail rolled up, and he straightened the stool that was knocked down next to him: "Then when do we leave?"
Garcia looked at Boyce and added: "Before the breeding season ends." The song used for courtship will only sound during the breeding season to pursue his mate.
"You can listen to it as many times as you want."
When it was time to sleep, Garcia, who was ordered by Boyce not to sleep with him because he was in the breeding season, did not turn off the light, but stood in front of the bed and looked at Boyce like that.
Boyce, who had already wrapped the quilt, sat up and was about to let go and let Garcia fall asleep, but his eyes inadvertently fell on Boyce's waist. Until Boyce's attitude was loose and somewhat excited, he opened and closed slightly.
Boyce remembered the reason why he decided to let Garcia sleep down by himself, lay down again, and left his back to Garcia, with a bit of pretended calm in his tone: "Why are you still not sleeping?"
Garcia looked at his back, and after a few minutes was a little disappointed and prepared to turn off the lights: "Turn off the lights right away."
…
The next day, Boyce went to the logistics office to look for Anthony after he found time.
Compared to Ivey, who pretended to be Professor Chris, Anthony seemed much more leisurely.
Seeing Boyce coming over, he was stunned for a moment: "Why are you here? Are you busy?"
"Come here." Boyce closed the door and sat down opposite him, "I have some questions, can you ask?"
If you can't ask, Boyce won't go to the end.
"Recent?" Anthony said. "No problem, just ask."
The questions that Boyce asked were not unanswerable to Anthony, so he told Boyce what he could say, and even filled in some questions that Boyce did not mention.
This kind of problem suddenly broke out in the research institute, and Louis and the others also didn't expect it, so they also have a headache when they are outside.
There are still many customers asking for solutions to the side effects of medicines. Investors are basically unable to withstand anything at this time, so Louis has been busy recently.
Louis' original plan was to hide the existence of the mermaid directly from the investors, but if the problem cannot be solved in time, the forces behind the guests who have problems in the research institute may not be able to hide the existence of the mermaid.
At that time, even if this research institute is destroyed now, there may be a second research institute soon.
At the same time, after the problem of side effects is solved, so many researchers at the institute are still a problem.
Originally, Lewis' plan was to solve these problems slowly, but now the institute has suddenly burst into such a big crisis, which directly disrupted their original plan.
While explaining to Boyce, Anthony couldn't help but scold the investor without saying a few words. Boyce looked at him and suddenly remembered the conversation he had with the team leader yesterday.
There should be many researchers in the institute who have the same idea of leaving as the team leader. After the incident of Professor Cyril, the second problem should be solved a little better.
…
After leaving Anthony's side, Boyce took advantage of the time and stopped by to see Collins.
Collins is now being watched all the time, happy to see Boyce.
"Can you still hear the singing now?" Boyce asked Collins. He seemed to be in poor spirits, with dark eyes, as if he hadn't slept very well. The two people who were with him kept looking at Collins at night. Rather sleep better.
Boyce asked a question, only to know that it was because Collins had been abnormal too many times at night recently, and Collins asked them to wake him up after finding that something was wrong. In this way, Collins' dark circles seemed a little too heavy.
However, Boyce looked carefully for a while, and Collins himself seems to have no problem with his mental state now, except for the thick dark circles under his eyes.
He even had the nerve to complain to Boyce about his missing brooch recently. Collins said he took out a photo, pointed to it and said to Boyce, "Look, isn't it beautiful?"
It's a pity that I can't seem to find it in the past few days.
"Singing?" Collins was stunned when he heard his words. During this time, he also recalled the time after returning to the institute many times, "I only heard it a few times."
"But I didn't hear it again until the day you discovered it."
Hearing this, Boyce frowned. Just before Hobbs was replaced by Collins, Collins asked himself if he heard the singing.
Garcia said that the singing was for courtship, but Collins, who was S-24's partner, did not hear the singing during this time, so Boyce was a little disturbed for no reason.
But remembering what Garcia said, singing will only appear during the breeding season, Boyce thought, it should only be necessary to survive the breeding season...
…
Boyce's workload is lightened a bit because the institute is now fully working on a drug that solves the side effects.
After he finished his work, he sat in a chair and listened to the other colleagues in the group.
"It seems that the newly delivered mermaid has not been fed for two days."
"Two days?"
A lot of things happened during this time. Boyce rarely heard news about the new mermaid. He only remembered that it seemed that someone had been arranged to feed, but he had not had time to conduct any experiments.
"Didn't they arrange someone?" Someone next to him interjected.
"Who cares about an experimental body now?"
"Who doesn't want to live a good life, no one cares if they don't feed during this time."
Everyone in the research institute is well aware of the dangers of coming into contact with mermaids, and they naturally don't want to die if they don't go.
"Who is the person who arranged it? It happens that I am free at this time, so I will go for him."
Boyce didn't know whether it was because he didn't want another mermaid of Garcia's family to starve to death or for other reasons, but he thought, compared to other people in the institute, it was always safer for him to feed the mermaids. .
I heard that Boyce took the initiative to take over the new mermaid, and the researcher who was feeding s-24 before came to Boyce with some hesitation.
"What's the matter with you?"
"I heard that you offered to feed the new mermaid..." The visitor looked at Boyce with a bit of inquiry in his eyes. The words behind him were hesitant, and the words sounded vague.
"What do you want to say?" Boyce frowned, "Do you say it again?"
The person opposite heard Boyce's words and seemed to be frightened. He didn't dare to speak for a long time. Boyce asked again: "What did you just say? I didn't hear it clearly."
"Aren't you afraid of mermaids?"
Boyce shook his head. Because of his love for Garcia and his determination that the mermaid would not threaten his life, Boyce was not very worried about his own life.
"Then can you feed the s-24 for me?"
"You've fed him before..." Probably knowing that his request was a bit inappropriate, his own voice gradually became quieter.
Boyce didn't care, anyway, if one merman is to feed, it doesn't matter if two.
When I went to feed the mermaid, there were no accidents. From the time Boyce appeared in the breeding room to the time he left, the two mermaids did not appear from the beginning to the end.
But I don't know if Garcia, who was in the breeding season, was particularly sensitive to the breath of merman. After Boyce went back, before he had time to say anything, Garcia pointed out: "You met his merman today."
Boyce did not refute, probably because Boyce was in contact with other mermaids, Garcia was a little anxious.
"He obviously has a partner, why do you want you to feed them?"
"Just temporarily."
"The institute will be destroyed soon, and they will be out of here by then."
"But I'll leave with you."
It sounds really good, but Garcia doesn't really have much trust in Boyce when it comes to leaving with himself.
He looked at Boyce and wondered if he was really thinking about this or was coaxing himself again, but Boyce's words really moved his heart.
"What do you want to do after leaving the institute?" Boyce asked him.
After thinking about it, Garcia took Boyce back to his residence, or went to the nest to find the leader after the breeding season, and continued what he had not done before diverting to find Boyce.
"Will you come with me?" Garcia asked before answering the question.
"Of course." Boyce agreed with certainty.
Garcia gave him a deep look, and he regarded Boyce's words as true. Since he agreed, he would not be given a chance to regret it.
After Garcia told his plan, Boyce was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Why? Do you want to be the leader?"
After all, according to what Boyce knew from Garcia, the leader was more like a babysitter who looked after children for free in the human world, ensuring the safety of the young mermaid.
In fact, Garcia is not sure, but challenging the leader is something every mermaid will do.
"The leader should be the strongest in the group."
Since it is the strongest, it should be selected after being challenged by the same clan.
Garcia is very confident that he can beat Hearst. If this time fails, it should be enough to wait another ten years.
But when Garcia looked at Boyce, he suddenly remembered that the leader would spend most of his time at the bottom of the sea.
And humans don't necessarily like life under the sea.
Even after being transformed, Boyce's appearance will not change, and he can still live on land.
If he did succeed, would Boyce return to land during the time he had to stay in the lair?
Thinking of this, Garcia didn't know why he suddenly lost most of his interest in challenging the leader. He wanted to be with Boyce all the time and live the life Boyce wanted to live.
