The car fell silent, and everyone's expressions became strange.
Lucy laughed awkwardly, and Andre sneered. The two obviously didn't believe the driver's mermaid.
Jeff still kept his head down, only Bai Liu's expression was complacent.
The driver drove the car gently and steadily to a building: "The museum is here, get off the car." After everyone got off the car, the driver said: "You can visit first, and you can call me in the evening. I will pick you up to see the mermaid. Fishing activity."
He drove off after speaking. Bai Liu got out of the car and looked around and looked around. In front of him was a building that was so high that he needed him to put his head down parallel to the ground to see the top. There were a few English flowers on the top. Bai Liu translated the letters in the body, called [Sirens Museum].
[Scene Unlock-Siren Museum]
The painting style of the entire museum is sea-like dark and dark, supported by a few thick granite columns at the top. Standing at the door of Bailiu, you can see many contoured mermaid statues, which are beautifully displayed inside.
The decoration of the Siren Museum looks very new, but the exterior wall still looks a little worn out. It is a kind of red brick wall with a lot of old newspapers with missing persons posted on it. When the wind blows, it gets stuck in Bailiu’s. Face.
Bai Liu took off this old newspaper from his face, and what he saw was a line of notice in bold and bold—[Police Notice: Twelve people were missing in Siren Town this month. Please have you seen the missing persons listed in the missing photos below. Report to the police in time, please pay attention to safety when traveling in Siren Town, do not play with large fish, beware of falling into the water]
There are twelve black-and-white photos posted below. The people on the top all have the joyful smiles of having just traveled to Siren Town, but the smiles of the people in the newspaper show this yellowed outdated newspaper and fall into Bai Liu’s eyes. There is a kind of weird indescribable.
After Bai Liu carefully read the entire newspaper, he prepared to put the newspaper away and put it in his bag. After folding it twice, Bai Liu suddenly felt that the folding felt was not right, and it was a bit too hard.
As a newspaper, even if the hair is dry and brittle by the sea breeze, it shouldn't have such a hard texture... it's like it's not just a piece of paper.
Bai Liu looked at the cross-section of the newspaper. The cross-section did indeed look thick, but there were no traces of multiple sheets. The main reason was that the newspaper had been blown very solidly. Even if there were multiple sheets, it could not be easily seen, Bai Liu He twisted his eyebrows, put the newspaper in his arms, and decided to scald it with warm water after entering the museum to see if the newspaper has multiple layers and whether it can be separated.

The guardian of the Siren Museum is an old man who has cataracts. His eyes are cloudy and white, but the magical thing is that there is no big problem in seeing people. As soon as Bai Liu and the others walked in, the old man, he quickly turned his head. Moving over, the guardian's eyes were blank, but his aging face had a polite smile. The way he quickly moved closer to this side made Lucy let out a small exclamation.
The man in the museum looked strange and sighing: "It's been a long time since no one has come here... Since there have been accidents last month, no tourists have come to the Siren Museum, and there have been no new mermaid sculptures in the museum for a long time."
Hearing this, Bai Liu asked the guardian: "Why haven't new mermaid sculptures entered the museum for a long time? Does it have anything to do with the absence of tourists?"
"Of course there is." The guardian's tone began to excite. He even waved his somewhat stiff old arms and legs. "Without tourists, we rarely do large-scale activities like mermaid fishing, which are time-consuming and laborious. No mermaid. After fishing, we have no way to make mermaid sculptures and put them in the museum."
"Does the Siren Museum always have mermaid sculptures coming in continuously?" Bai Liu immediately realized a problem. "The capacity of this museum is limited, right? If you keep getting new sculptures in, you won't be able to put too many sculptures. ."
"No." The man in the museum was chewing a weird smile, his white eyes rolled in his eyes and aimed at the white willow, in a mysterious tone, "These mermaid sculptures will leave this museum, and the Siren Museum will never be filled. , Because as many sculptures come in, so many mermaid sculptures will leave."
Bai Liu raised her eyebrows delicately and continued to write: "Then where did these mermaid sculptures go after they left the museum? Will these sculptures be thrown back into the sea?"
The pavilion guard stopped his mouth. He seemed to feel that he had said something that shouldn't be said, but Bai Liu keenly asked: "After the tourists came, what then?"
"Nothing will happen." The guard muttered to himself, "You will spend a pleasant holiday in Siren Town, and then leave here."
Asking again, the man in the museum refused to speak any more. After Bai Liu asked where the hot water in the museum was, he gave up the routine. He took the ticket and walked in with the group of people behind him. Siren Museum.
As soon as he entered, Bai Liu saw a golden lacquer statue standing at the door. This is a humanoid sculpture wearing a suit and a hat. It is completely different from the mermaid sculptures Bai Liu saw. There is no fish tail, and the whole body is golden with a face. The official smile is a majestic sculpture of a middle-aged man standing on a black stone platform, waving to the tourists who come in.
The lights in the museum are very dim, and the light falling from the top casts an unclear shadow on the face of this statue, making the polite smile on the face of the statue weird.
Some explanations for this statue were carved on the black stone platform. Bai Liu leaned over to look at it—this is the mayor sculpture of Siren Town, which was completed when the Siren Museum opened its ribbon.
The stone platform also used some exaggerated tones to highly praise the mayor’s contribution to the town of Siren. What supported the development of tourism after salvaging the bones of the mermaid, and what supported the construction of the Siren Museum, which is of great ornamental significance. , So that the entire backward seaside Siren Town became prosperous.
Carved on the stone platform—[Mayor Harris has an unconditional love for every villager in Siren Town like he has for his own children]
Bai Liu was watching earnestly, and Jeff, who was silent all the way, suddenly leaned against Bai Liu: "Do you believe in humans? Do you think all the things about Siren Town mentioned above are true?"
Of course I won't believe them all.
This kind of curiosity that is specially built to promote the development of the tourism industry is said to the museum. Although it looks serious, it is almost true to have a three-point truth. Most of the false information fabricated by the local area is used for hype. The gimmick attracts tourists.
But this is a horror game.
Bai Liu: "I think it's true."
Andre hugged his chest and grinned heavily, seeming to mock Jeff and Bai Liu who were convinced, and followed Jeff into the museum.
Bai Liu and Lucy were going to be together, but Bai Liu wanted to find the hot water room to separate the wet newspapers, so Lucy left to go shopping alone.
After Lucy expressed regret, she said that she would be waiting for Bai Liu in the exhibition hall, so she went out curiously, and Bai Liu went to the hot water room that the guardian said.
