Diary of Raising a Mermaid

Chapter 66

Views:

Lance stood in the kitchen, holding a spatula with a confused look on his face.

Orderly... is it really a babysitter

Lance felt that he was really diligent and had done everything for Wen Yu.

Even when he went to bed at night, he had to accompany Wen Yu to warm the bed.

In a literal sense, the kind that warms the bed with the body.

Just warming the bed, why include cooking

It's okay to cook, but why did Wen Yu have to cook when Carl was around, but after the two of them arrived, Wen Yu insisted on him cooking

"What are we eating today?"

Wen Yu came from behind, kissed Lance on the cheek, and asked.

"Bacon, with eggs."

Lance said weakly.

Then fry the eggs in the pan until golden on both sides, remove them and put them in the dish.

At the same time, his heart was bleeding.

Extravagance, really extravagance.

Last night, after discussing with Wen Yu for a long time, Lance finally figured out the current social prices.

Here, even if it is a rich area, people don't eat meat if they want to.

Due to changes in the doomsday environment, the outside living environment is not enough for humans to produce food, so humans are forced to cultivate food and livestock in greenhouses in artificial environments.

Over time, rare things are more expensive, and natural meat is particularly expensive, so most people eat synthetic meat and various canned foods. People want to improve their living standards a little, so people buy fresh vegetables, fruits and meat.

This side is near the sea, so the fish is slightly cheaper, but not everyone can eat fish every day.

At this point, Lance couldn't help but sigh—

No wonder the three patrolling soldiers clung to the middle-aged woman. Perhaps in their eyes, that piece of bacon was a collection of thousands of dollars.

But now, since Lance can come out of the swimming pool and become Wen Yu's orderly again, Wen Yu let himself go and let Lance arrange everything for him at home, regardless of whether Lance can figure it out or not. prices.

However, this kind of trust and deliberate indulgence did not reach the point where Wen Yu imagined that "Lance is very happy" and deliberately "arrogant". On the contrary, after Lance realized the price, Lance started to calculate How to save money.

Watching his own soldiers bargaining for him every day, Wen Yu said that it was also a lot of fun.

Today, the two of them had breakfast at the dining table. The breakfast was very simple, with bacon and eggs, and a glass of boiled water.

While eating, Lance began to calculate that if he was an orderly, his salary would be enough for him to live for several months according to the current standard of living.

"What are you thinking?"

As soon as Wen Yu looked up, he saw Lance sitting opposite him with a sad face. Every time he took a bite of bacon, he gritted his teeth and looked heartbroken, as if he was chewing on some hundred-dollar bill.

"so expensive."

Lance complained, "My internship salary can't support it at all."

Wen Yu: "..."

After thinking for a while, Wen Yu took out a card from his arms, handed it to Lance, and said domineeringly:

"This is the wages I have saved for more than twenty years, enough for you to spend."

Judging from some "love guides" he has read, it is easier to increase the courtship rate by expressing to your partner that you have a rich family background.

Lance glanced at Ka, he didn't take it, but asked an irrelevant question:

"Wen Yu, if I take your place, how much will I be paid?"

Wen Yu twitched the corner of his mouth.

This question is not easy to answer.

Because if he quotes a higher price, he is a little worried that his little fish will focus on starting a career line instead of returning to the sea.

After breakfast, Wen Yu was going to take Lance to patrol.

This time was different from the past. It was Wen Yu who took Lance for a "walk", instead of asking Karl to take Lance and drive around.

Lance agreed with this plan with all his hands. He felt that his feet were not as fragile as they were in the beginning, and he was also curious about how much his feet could bear now.

"This place is so big, what if I really can't bear it?"

Lance asked curiously.

Wen Yu thought for a while, then tilted his head:

"I'll carry you back?"

"Ok, ok, ok."

Lance's eyes were shining brightly, but the next second, he was digging his dimples, a little embarrassed,

"Isn't that bad, aren't you the officer?"

Wen Yu pondered:

"Yes, I am the officer."

He raised his head and said sternly to Lance:

"Order Lance!"

Lance shuddered in shock.

The sound just now made him think that he had returned to the military training scene in college, subconsciously straightened his back and raised his heels, and gave an awkward military salute to Wen Yu:

"Yes, sir."

Wen Yu suppressed his laughter, he went forward to help Lance correct the awkward place, and said:

"Getting into the state is very fast."

Lance was about to relax, but after glancing at Wen Yu, he immediately corrected his posture.

"After leaving the villa, you are my orderly, understand?"

Wen Yu rubbed Lance's head and helped Lance put on the helmet.

"Yes, sir."

Lance responded loudly again.

It's almost like a recruit egg.

But in the next second, Lance failed. He shook his head, not liking the helmet he was wearing:

"Do you have to wear a helmet?"

"certainly."

Wen Yu said, "A military order is like a mountain."

"Oh."

Lance replied dryly.

"Remember, you are my soldier."

Wen Yu looked at Lance and repeated it again.

Lance raised his head and nodded through the transparent plastic plate on the helmet:

"Yes, sir."

Wen Yu nodded in satisfaction.

Today, there is a sensation in the rich area.

Colonel Wen Yu, who was always on the lookout, came out to patrol in person.

It's a bit strange to say that, but Wen Yu really only brought a reserve soldier and "walked" into the community.

When everyone saw this scene, their first reaction was to stop and look at Wen Yu's back.

If Wen Yu can show up in person, is it possible that the wealthy district is about to experience an earthquake? Or some vicious gangster

Due to the distraction of many passers-by, Wen Yu walked over, and there were many car accidents along the way.

Lance walked behind Wen Yu, and he was dumbfounded as he watched Wen Yu leave behind a mess all the way.

As for? Isn't it just that Wen Yu came out for a walk

Is he a blue-faced disaster

"Watch your step."

Wen Yu sounded a reminder.

Lance hurriedly stepped over a staircase, and couldn't help asking:

"It's all wrong, shouldn't we help?"

Wen Yu replied calmly:

"It's all small things, they can solve it themselves, we don't need to come forward."

"Oh."

Lance could only simply reply with one word, indicating that he understood.

Fortunately, this farce only lasted two hours. After two hours, the entire rich area should have passed one to two, two to three, and everyone knew that Wen Yu was patrolling on foot.

After seeing Wen Yu, the people in the back didn't have such a big reaction like the previous people, which finally stopped the traffic accident in this neighborhood.

This also made Lance breathe a sigh of relief.

Walking, Lance couldn't help looking at the iron gate in front.

After two hours of patrolling, Lance and Wen Yu had reached the edge of the rich area.

The most fringe area is the boundary between the rich area and the poor area, which is sealed off with an iron gate, and a team of troops is stationed beside it.

The iron gate was only opened a small opening, and anyone who entered from the poor area had to be registered.

"The outside is the c42 area, which is a transition area."

Wen Yu watched Lance keep looking there, and explained,

"There are companies in the rich area, and the company has employees who live in the poor area, and they will come here to work."

Lance nodded, thinking of Li Si's family he had rescued before.

"Can your feet take it?"

Wen Yu asked.

Lance nodded and said in a low voice:

"It hurts a little."

After patrolling behind Wen Yu, Lance realized why someone like Karl would be willing to be Wen Yu's subordinate.

When Wen Yu was wearing a military uniform and walking in front of Lance calmly, Lance looked at Wen Yu's back and unconsciously straightened his back.

At this time, Wen Yu's aura all over his body really made people want to surrender to him involuntarily.

but…

Looking at Wen Yu's back, Lance couldn't help frowning.

Looking at Wen Yu's back, he always felt that there was something wrong with Wen Yu's unconscious aura at this moment.

Not knowing if it was his intuition as a mermaid, Lance looked at Wen Yu's back, recalled some of the people he had been in contact with recently, and finally realized why Wen Yu felt wrong to him—

The aura on Wen Yu's body didn't seem human.

In terms of comparison between races, mermaids are definitely crushing for humans, so Lance will unconsciously have a superior mentality towards humans;

However, when facing Wen Yu, Lance sometimes felt that he was being suppressed.

In other words, Wen Yu is the superior to Lance.

Thinking of this, Lance stopped in his tracks.

He began to think seriously, the last time Wen Yu gave him the feeling that he was still human, why did he change so much when they met for the second time.

And this feeling of oppression, Lance has only experienced it from one person—

That black-tailed mermaid, Vinther.

This made Lance couldn't help but re-examine Wen Yu.

There should have been some changes in Wen Yu's body that he didn't know about.

"Lance, what's wrong?"

Wen Yu walked a few steps, but didn't hear the footsteps behind him. He turned his head and saw Lance standing behind him motionless, and asked worriedly,

"Does your leg hurt?"

"No, I just..."

Lance knew that he couldn't ask anything at this time, and this was not a good time to ask questions, so he shook his head, trying to shake this question to the back of his mind, and then made an excuse,

"Well, there seems to be sand in the shoe."

"Colonel Wen Yu? Lance?"

Just at this time, an acquaintance drove by. He looked at the two people in front of him, stopped, opened the window, and greeted them.

The person who came had a pair of green eyes.

It happened to be Michael.

"Why are you here?"

When Wen Yu saw Michael, remembering that Michael seemed to have an extraordinary enthusiasm for Lance before, he couldn't help but sink his face,

"At this time, you should be in the company."

Michael is indeed a person who can become an executive. Even in the face of Wen Yu's difficulties, he just smiled, and then he looked at Lance on the other side.

There was a gleam of light in the green eyes, Michael turned his head and suggested to Wen Yu:

"I just came back from inspection at the granary in the lower city... Colonel Wen Yu, your orderly is called Lance, right? I think Lance doesn't feel well, why don't I take you back, as a reward for the last rescue .”

Michael's advice was thoughtful and sincere.

Wen Yu listened to this impeccable suggestion, he looked at Lance, and after a while, Wen Yu asked Lance:

"What do you think?"

"I think we can go back in his car."

Lance said weakly.

He turned back without hesitation.

If he wanted to walk back from here, he would have to walk for at least two hours. That is to say, the entire patrol of Lance would take four hours. Lance didn't think his feet could last.

Wen Yu: "..."

So Lance and Wen Yu got into Michael's car.

While driving, Michael kept looking at Lance and Wen Yu through the rearview mirror in the car, and he seemed to mention it unintentionally:

"Colonel Wen Yu has a good relationship with Lance."

Hearing his name, Lance couldn't help looking at Michael.

At this time, Lance noticed that Michael's eyes flicked past him from time to time, and suddenly felt a little playful.

Is this man testing him

So Lance replied cautiously:

"Because I'm his orderly."

Wen Yu, who was sitting beside Lance, raised his eyelids lazily, and glanced at Lance, lacking interest.

"Lance, were you born downtown?"

Michael asked,

"If I remember correctly, you told me last time that the last two digits of your ID number are 25. 25 is the code for the lower city."

Lance tensed the muscles in his back.

Wen Yu opened his eyes all of a sudden, turned his head, and looked at Michael.

"I was also born in the downtown area, and the last number of my ID number is 26."

Michael didn't seem to notice the change in the atmosphere in the car at all, he asked with a smile,

"This means that the place where I was born is very close to your home. Maybe the two of us bathed in that Haizi River."

Lance didn't answer.

"Do you still remember the Haizi River? The river that runs across the 25 and 26 districts."

Michael went on to say,

"Today's inspection, I stopped by to take a look, and it's almost done."

"Congratulations."

Lance replied in an almost calm voice.

Seeing that Lance's reaction was flat, Michael was about to say something more—

"All right."

Wen Yu suddenly said, "Let's stop here, let's stop."

"However, there is still a distance from the central city."

Michael was stunned.

"Stop the car. Lance is a reserve soldier. He should be able to bear the pain."

Wen Yu's attitude is very tough.

After a few seconds of dullness in the car, Michael continued to smile, looking a little helpless:

"Well, a soldier is a soldier."

Afterwards, he pulled over and stopped the car.

After Lance and Wen Yu got out of the car, Michael sincerely thanked them again:

"Anyway, thank you for saving Loma last time."

Those green eyes kept looking at Lance, and there was something flickering in the eyes that Lance couldn't understand.

This made Lance think of wolf eyes.

After Michael left, Lance said:

"He's testing me."

Even if he was a fool, he could tell that Michael was tempting him with the "Haizihe" matter.

The two are not familiar with each other, and they are not fellow villagers, so there is no need to use a river as an example.

Wen Yu glanced at Lance in surprise:

"You seem to be getting smarter."

Lance: "..."

"Michael does have a problem."

Wen Yu nodded, affirming what Lance said,

"He should be doubting your identity."

However, logically speaking, Michael didn't have to do this at all.

He is neither from the army nor from Dr. Muran's side.

The only explanation that can be explained is that Michael thinks that the other party has taken advantage of him.

"He is doubting my identity. Is it possible that his identity is also problematic?"

Lance fell into thought mode.

While Lance was thinking, Wen Yu walked over, and he couldn't help but get close to Lance, watching Lance frowning and thinking through the helmet.

Wen Yu observed Lance's expression, as if a boy was very interested in seeing a strange and fun toy.

Lance came back to his senses, he blinked, not understanding why Wen Yu looked at him like that.

"It seems that building nests can also improve intelligence."

Wen Yu pretended to say,

"The stupid little fish is not stupid anymore when he grows up."

Hearing this, Lance's face turned red all of a sudden, he couldn't tell whether he was ashamed or angry, so he simply played tricks, wanting to get back his temper:

"I don't care anymore, my leg hurts, you carry me!!!"

After speaking, Lance squatted on the ground.

Wen Yu: "..."

The author has something to say: Nat = Wenser = Wen Yu = Gong.

·

Someone asked the research lab how to get Nat's cells, it's very simple, you see, the tentacles threw meat to Lance at the beginning...Nate just dropped a piece of meat accidentally.

·

He also asked Wen Yu if he liked Lance, and he really did.

But don't forget, he is Nat, a Cthulhu-like creature. For Nat, everything on the earth can be counted as his creation, so when he faces all creatures, he has a certain This kind of unconsciously superior mentality cannot be eliminated.

But he is willing to keep the identity of "Wen Yu" for Lance, and even with this identity, he is still learning to get along with Lance.

·

And why everyone likes Lance... In fact, the people who like Lance and the sea monster have something to do with Nat. When Earl Vere appeared on the stage earlier, a little angel had already guessed it.
