Norman returned to the villa. As soon as he entered the hall, he smelled a faint fragrance. He turned around and walked towards the kitchen.
When he arrived at the door of the kitchen, he saw the little mermaid standing on the scooter, watching the chef cook the food intently.
The cooking table has already placed three plates of small animal snacks, which look delicious and cute.
An Jin felt being watched, turned his head, and smiled when he saw Norman: "You're off work!"
He raised his wrist slightly, thinking of the fishtail that was difficult to stand, and then drooped, holding the handle tightly.
He raised his chin slightly and gestured towards the refrigerator in the corner: "There is strawberry milk pudding in the refrigerator, you should like it."
The temperature has been very high recently, he has been staying indoors, and occasionally going to the garden is also staying in the pool, and he does not stay for too long and does not feel hot.
But Norman is different. Judging from that communication, Norman usually trains very hot.
Norman glanced at the little mermaid's hands clasping the handle: "Have you eaten?"
An Jin smiled: "I want to eat with Xiaoyin later and watch the chef make dessert. It's very interesting."
Norman walked over to the refrigerator and opened it.
Twelve glasses are placed on the upper shelf of the refrigerator, and the cups are filled with pudding. The contrast between the milky white milk and the bright red strawberries is strong, which looks sweet and refreshing.
Norman took a cup and a delicately carved silver spoon, closed the refrigerator, and walked to the little mermaid.
He opened the lid, dug out a spoonful, and deliberately brought half a strawberry and handed it to the little mermaid's mouth.
An Jin raised his head, his blue eyes slightly stunned.
Seeing Norman's serious face, he opened his mouth to eat, and the cool and sweet taste instantly swept his mouth. At the same time, he also felt a little cold at the corner of his mouth, and licked the corner of his mouth a little embarrassedly.
The soft pink tongue flashed by, and Norman's hand holding the spoon tightened unconsciously.
He looked away from the little mermaid's mouth and continued digging for dessert with a serious expression.
He carefully controlled the strength and direction of his strike so as not to bump into the strawberry.
An Jin looked at another spoonful of pudding handed to his mouth, and shook his head after eating it: "I have already tasted it, and it tastes great! You can also grab a cup and try it. The chef made twelve cups, and we each have three cups. "
Seeing the little mermaid's insistence, Norman covered the little mermaid's pudding. Under the little mermaid's urging, he took a cup, dug a large spoonful at will, and put it in his mouth.
The sweet, sour, fragrant and refreshing feeling struck instantly. His brown eyes lit up slightly. After swallowing it, he met the eyes of the little mermaid and made a serious comment: "It's delicious."
An Jin rolled his eyes: "There are several more, wait for you to try it and see which one you like the most."
He said, blinked his eyes, and asked, "Are you busy at work?"
Norman: "Not busy."
Soo has been rated as the most habitable star of the Star Alliance for five consecutive years, and the most important of which is that it is very safe.
Except during the Spring Beast Tide, he was not busy when he was on Si Ao Xing.
Of course, he doesn't spend much time on Si Ao Star every year, and he spends more time on interstellar patrols, which also makes the various star thieves not dare to approach Si Ao Star at will.
An Jin was a little disappointed. He thought about it for a while, and then asked directly, "Then will you go to the holographic world when you go to work?"
Norman: "Occasionally, look at the schedule."
He is not busy with work, but he has a lot of travel. He often goes to various bases to inspect, just because of the convenient transportation, no matter where he goes, it is very fast.
He guessed the little mermaid's intention, pondered for a moment and said, "I can accompany you to the holographic world at noon every day."
"No need," An Jin quickly shook his head and asked tentatively, "So, you are the most free at noon?"
Norman: "Well, it's lunch break by law."
An Jin remembered silently, thinking that if he went to the holographic world to exercise water system abilities, he must avoid the lunch break.
The water-type ability is his trump card, and he doesn't want to expose it, even if the opponent is Norman.
He makes enough money to change his face and body shape, and no one will recognize him.
However, Norman seems to be bound to him, as long as the two are online, they can see each other's location.
In order to avoid others, he would definitely find a more remote location to exercise.
If Norman found out, he would probably be surprised and suspicious.
Just thinking about it, his brain clapped. It was the chef's notification. He asked Norman, "When will Xiao Yin arrive? The food will be ready in three minutes."
Norman: "I'll be there soon, you go back to the pool first."
An Jin glanced at the roasted fins just taken out of the oven in the chef's hands, his Adam's apple rolled up and down, and withdrew his gaze to give the scooter the order: "Go back to the mermaid room."
The scooter started and drove slowly and smoothly to the mermaid room.
At the edge of the pool, An Jin flexibly jumped into the water, then swam to the edge of the pool, put both hands on the edge of the pool, and looked at the door.
After a while, Norman appeared with two guests.
"Good evening An'an." Mu Chen greeted with a smile.
An Jin's eyes fell on his face. There was a finger-long scratch on his left cheek, very thin, but with blood stains, which was clearly a new injury.
An Jin greeted politely: "Hello," he couldn't hold back, "Is it okay if you don't treat your wound?"
He even had an urge to run the water ability to treat his wound.
He was stunned for a moment, thinking of the popular high-level water ability user in the end-of-the-world base, and he had a guess in his heart.
At the end of the world, the most popular abilities are the water, wood, and light types. These three abilities have healing properties.
Moreover, these three kinds of superpowers have milder personalities. When they see the injured, they will instinctively want to treat them.
Among the three, the water system is more aggressive, and his water power level in the end of the world is too low to have any healing effect.
He thought of the impulse that had just arisen, and guessed that maybe the ability could only reach the second level.
Mu Chen smiled indifferently: "It's okay," he looked at Xiaoyin who was staring at him with vigilant eyes, "No, Xiaoyin won't calm down, please help me to persuade him."
An Jin looked at Xiao Yin with an angry face, and whispered, "Xiao Yin," seeing Xiao Yin looking over, he asked, "Do you still remember me?"
Xiaoyin's eyelids drooped slightly, and he floated in the mermaid car and looked down at him, as if to despise him: "Of course, you are An An. As I said, my memory is the best!"
An Jin: "...you're amazing."
The little silver fish tail swayed, and the voice became light: "Sure enough, it is our mermaid who speaks the most cute."
He turned his head, patted the tank wall with his palm, and roared at Mu Chen: "Stupid two-legged beast, don't let me go! A thief without a wink!"
Mu Chen looked helpless: "Why did you suddenly get angry?"
An Jin translated: "He wants to go into the pool."
Mu Chen hurriedly put Xiaoyin in the pool and sighed to Norman: "It's so easy to have An An translate," his eyes suddenly lit up, "You can learn the language of the mermaid through An An!"
"Being able to communicate with each other, we and the mermaid will definitely get along better."
Norman pondered for a moment: "I will discuss with An An."
Xiaoyin swam to An Jin's side, circled around him, lightly touched his long hair that was tied into a bunch, and finally clicked on the unadorned hair tie: "Your two-legged beast is too stingy!"
He raised his hand and took off a hairpin from his head. There was a large and round white pearl stuck to the hairpin. He handed it to An Jin: "Here it is."
An Jin shook his head: "Thank you, you look good wearing it, I don't like wearing hair accessories."
He turned on his brain and asked the chef to bring the food. He said to Xiaoyin, "I asked the chef to make delicious food. You can try it later."
He paused and added: "The chef is mine... Twoleg bought it, and the food was also bought with his money, so he's entertaining you."
He was really afraid of Xiaoyin and suspected that he was asking for mating.
Xiaoyin glanced at Norman and put the pearl hairpin on her head: "It's not so stingy."
An Jin smirked, thinking that Xiao Yin was very cute.
After a while, the chef walked in with a dining cart filled with all kinds of food.
Xiaoyin smelled the fragrance, and immediately swam to the shore, holding her hands on the shore, straightening her body and stretching her neck to look, her upturned nose twitched: "It smells good!"
The next moment, he slammed his tail and rushed to Mu Chen: "I want a chef too!"
An Jin explained Xiaoyin's words to Mu Chen, then held Xiaoyin's wrist, and brought him to the food that had been placed on the shore: "Only chefs can't do it, the food is delicious because I made them delicious before. already."
Xiaoyin's attention immediately turned to the food, and after two seconds he looked at An Jin: "You are so amazing! How can you make so much food delicious!"
He said, looking An Jin up and down: "You are stronger than the last time we met!"
An Jin was slightly startled: "Can you feel it?"
Xiaoyin raised his chin lightly: "Of course, you make me feel more comfortable! Unlike two-legged beasts," he wrinkled his nose, "the stronger it is, the more annoying it is."
An Jin was a little surprised and couldn't help but guess. Could it be that because he has water ability, mermaids are naturally closer to water
Xiaoyin stretched out his hand, grabbed a cup of pudding, and threw it directly into his mouth... but didn't pour it out.
An Jin quickly picked up the cup he had eaten before, took another spoon, and handed it to Xiao Yin: "Eat it like this with me."
Xiaoyin imitated him to hold the wall of the cup in one hand and the spoon in the other, digging and eating, taking the first bite, Xiaoyin's eyes instantly lit up: "Delicious!"
Then he ate it quickly. When An Jin had eaten a third of it, he had already finished eating, so he went to get another cup.
An Jin reminded: "Try the rest, try each of them, or you won't be able to eat when you're full."
Xiao Yin pondered for two seconds: "You are so smart!" Then he took a small cake to eat.
Mu Chen was also eating his portion, and was moved: "An An is so good, you actually prepared mine!"
He looked at Norman enviously: "Have you ever eaten pure food made by the chef?"
Norman nodded: "It's what I ate last night and this morning." He paused, and out of a subtle desire to show off his fish, he said what he ate.
Mu Chen suddenly felt that the pudding in his hand was not fragrant.
"You are so lucky," Mu Chen sighed, "With An An, all single people in Quan Siao want to marry you!"
Norman's expression was indifferent, and he stopped talking nonsense that he would not get married.
An Jin took a piece of spicy chicken wing, and was about to eat it, when he heard Mu Chen's words, he turned his head and looked at Norman.
Norman just looked at him, and the two met, An Jin looked away first.
He nibbled on the chicken wings with a thoughtful expression, Norman would get married in the future!
The recent life has been stable, Norman is very kind to him, and he doesn't treat him like pets, just like people, so that he even has a sense of peace and happiness.
Before the end of the world, his life in the villa was similar to that now, but no one treated him as well as Norman.
At that time, he always wanted to escape from the villa, and he didn't want to go back on vacation. He felt that the villa was like an exquisite cage, which looked beautiful but had no freedom.
After the end of the world, he sat alone in the warehouse, watching the dim sky and the howls of zombies in the distance, always thinking, if only he could go back to the villa.
He misses the blue sky over the villa, the white clouds, and even the cicadas that disturb his nap in summer.
Now he came to another world and lived the life he wanted in the last days.
It's just that it's different, he's not human anymore.
If Norman got married, would Norman's partner treat him as well as Norman? Do you see him as a human being
Or, it would be scary.
After all, he was so different from a mermaid.
In that case, what would Norman do
He has heard and seen many cases where owners hand over their pets to others to keep or sell.
Many people are afraid of their boyfriends or girlfriends, or are prone to allergies and other symptoms.
Also, he's not a real mermaid, with an adult mind, he doesn't want to live with a couple.
Don't want to be a super watt light bulb.
An Jin pondered, he now has an income. Although he doesn't know much, he has no problem listening and speaking. He has a scooter for walking. If he can buy a house, he can live alone!
Norman spent more than 20 billion to buy him. Although he did not get the money from the auction, Norman treated him very well. If it weren't for Norman, what his situation would be is unknown.
He was grateful to Norman, and did not want Norman to spend money in vain. He would continue to pass on his spiritual power to Norman. After all, Norman bought him for spiritual power.
In this way, it is equivalent to Norman spending money and getting the desired result.
And he can be independent.
He thought, if he exchanged pure nutrients, Norman should be willing to give him the chef, right
The more he thought about it, the more feasible it became. He wanted to check the house price at night to see when he could afford it.
It was the house he lived alone, and he didn't want to spend Norman's money.
Norman did not know that the little mermaid was thinking of 'independence'. Seeing that the little mermaid seemed to like Xiaoyin, he asked Mu Chen, "Are you free to take them to the Mermaid Center?"
Mu Chen said: "After a while, I have to take Xiaoyin to the medical examination center tomorrow. He is approaching the estrus period, so pay more attention."
An Jin took advantage of Xiaoyin's happy eating and asked Mu Chen: "The food you make delicious has the same effect as your singing, Mu Chen, your two-legged beast, wants you to give a little to make it delicious every day. food for him, okay?"
"A cheeky two-legged beast!" Xiaoyin said angrily, "He can't steal it, so he still wants me to give it to him?"
After he finished speaking, he suddenly realized something and looked at An Jin in surprise: "Can you understand what the two-legged beast said?"
An Jin nodded: "Well," he took the opportunity to explain, "they have no ill will towards the mermaid. They want to use the mermaid's singing to restore their spiritual power. They always look at you because they like you, not because they want to attack you."
Xiaoyin blinked, and the tips of his ears suddenly turned red: "Wow, what do you like," he said, "mermaids don't like bald two-legged beasts, they're ugly."
An Jin: "...not that kind of liking."
He was choked up, not knowing how to explain it. He always felt that Xiaoyin would go wild after saying that humans treat mermaids as pets.
Little Yinyin's eyes are filled with doubts: "Isn't liking just liking?"
An Jin explained patiently: "There are many kinds of likes. For example, you like delicious food, and you like to issue cards. This kind of like is different from your likes for other mermaids."
Xiaoyin suddenly said: "You are right, it is indeed different."
An Jin thought to himself that the IQ of the mermaid was actually quite high.
Then, he saw Xiao Yin staring at him and said angrily, "Damn two-legged beast! Does he like me, does he want to eat me? Or does he want to kill me and decorate with my beautiful hair and scales?"
An Jin: "...Neither, like," he thought for a while, "like I like you, like a friend, not wanting to mate with you."
Xiaoyin had a playful face and a tangled expression, as if he had experienced a fierce struggle, and finally said: "Then force it, give him a flat fish, but," he raised his chin, "I want to be a chef too."
An Jin conveyed his words, and Mu Chen quickly said, "I'll buy it to order!"
Xiaoyin got a message from An Jin and expressed satisfaction with the attitude of the two-legged beast.
An Jin said: "If you have any ideas in the future, you can try to communicate with him. You don't have to scare him, he will meet your requirements, as long as you are willing to sing to him."
Seeing Xiaoyin's hesitation, An Jin smiled and said, "You will know if you try it. Even if you turn your back to him, he will not attack you."
Xiaoyin finally made a decision: "Okay, I'll try it later."
During this visit, Mu Chen and Xiaoyin were satisfied with eating, and Mu Chen was particularly happy when he received the promise of Xiaoyin and a fish, and thanked An An again and again.
An Jin lay on the edge of the pool and waved at them, watching them leave.
Norman returns to the mermaid room and asks the little mermaid if he is willing to help humans learn the mermaid language.
An Jin was a little uneasy: "Can others accept it calmly when they know that I can speak?"
Norman pondered, thinking of some radicals in the scientific research institute: "I will talk about this later, I will find a way," he comforted the little mermaid, "It will definitely be accepted by everyone."
He told the little mermaid No. 3 about the live broadcast.
An Jin silently wrote down that No. 3 should not go to the garden.
ยท
On the morning of the 3rd, An Jin woke up indoors. After washing, he put on a white T-shirt, thinking that Norman said there would be a live broadcast today, so he didn't go to the garden.
Norman had breakfast with him in the morning before heading to the palace chambers.
An Jin was thinking about watching the live broadcast, went to the holographic world in advance to handle the food, and then set a time for Zhinao to watch the literacy video while waiting for the broadcast to start.
At 10:50, he tuned to the live channel, and the official live broadcast had not yet started.
He glanced in the direction of the palace, thought about it, and turned on his full perception, maybe he could feel the scene.
At this time, the deputy minister confirmed the process to Norman again: "At half past eleven, the live broadcast will start on time. At that time, it will target you and broadcast live in all directions. At half past twelve, it will automatically close."
Norman nodded and broadcasted it once a year. He knew the live ball well.
At this time, the housekeeper reported: "Speaker Noji has arrived."
The Nogi hovering car went through the security check and landed in front of the dormitory. He got out of the hovering car, went to the parlour, and greeted Norman. He smiled and said, "I was a little surprised when I received the invitation."
Twelve years ago, in the spring beast swarm and the battle for the throne, the immediate royal family suffered heavy casualties, leaving only his two cousins, Norman.
However, the two have very little personal friendship, and only maintain the ceremonial exchanges during the New Year.
Except for major meetings of the House of Lords, the two rarely see each other.
Norman was silent for a second, then said solemnly: "This is the suggestion of the Ministry of Information, to show the royal family."
Although he didn't agree, he had other plans, so he agreed.
At eleven o'clock, the official live broadcast began, and as usual, the introduction of the palace was still the first.
For the first time, An Jin saw the whole view of the palace. The palace occupies a large area, with a large square in front of it, and three flags are raised in the middle of the square.
In the middle is the national flag of the Soo Empire, and on both sides are the military flag and the national emblem of the royal family of Leyson.
The main body of the palace is a cube-shaped off-white building, which is slightly flooded under the dazzling light. The carvings on the walls and the exquisite decorations everywhere show the most expensive royal family.
In the middle of the main hall, the golden family emblem of the royal family hangs. In the video, a close-up is specially given.
An Jin had seen this mark on Norman's clothes before, but now he knew that it was the emblem of the Siao royal family.
In the aerial photography mode, the pattern of the palace is very clear. An Jin can see at a glance the group of villas separated from the palace by a garden.
However, more than one villa garden had a pool, and he couldn't identify his location at all.
The overhead image flashed quickly, and then introduced the gardens, galleries, star colosseum, meeting rooms and diplomatic reception venues of the palace.
At about half past eleven, the screen turned to the bedroom on the left. The bedroom was a four-storey building, like a castle.
At 11:30, Norman appeared in the live broadcast. He was wearing a blue shirt and black trousers, which was much more friendly than when he was in military uniform.
Next to him sat a gentle-looking man of his age.
As soon as the two appeared, An Jin couldn't see the screen clearly and was completely blocked by the barrage.
He turned on the barrage simplified mode, canceled the repeated barrage, and the screen was refreshing in an instant.
Norman looked at the live ball and said hello: "Hello everyone, I'm Norman Raisen."
[Your Majesty is so handsome!]
[Wow! It is very rare to see His Majesty wearing a normal uniform.]
The gentle man smiled: "I'm Noji Raisen."
[The Speaker is also very handsome and looks so gentle.]
After greeting, Nuoji followed the procedure and suggested, "We haven't played chess for a long time, how about two games?"
He had a natural look on his face, as if the two had a close personal relationship.
Norman nodded, the servant presented a pair of military chess, and the two played each other.
An Jin didn't understand it, but only after reading the barrage did he realize that Sioux chess was an ancient game, a compulsory course for nobles, and both Norman and Nogi were very good at chess.
After a while, a guard walked up to Norman and reported something in a low voice.
At the same time, Nuoji also received a report from his subordinates: "Prince Ian hid in the hover car and came to the palace, and while the guards were not paying attention, he went to the villa wearing flying wings."
Nogi immediately understood Ian's purpose, he must want to see the mecha model in Norman's collection room!
He regretted it very much, knowing that Ian was so daring, he should have brought Ian with him.
His gentle expression couldn't be maintained immediately, he frowned fiercely, and stood up: "Ian, this stinky boy! He actually dares to use flying wings. When he breaks his leg, he knows he is afraid."
At the same time, An Jin felt someone approaching the villa, accompanied by a panicked cry of a child.
Soon, there was a 'pop...' and something fell into the pool in the garden, followed by the cry of a child in the water for help.
An Jin was startled, didn't even think about it, swam to the passage, looked out, and saw a little boy in a small suit with wings on his back struggling in the water.
He glanced over the wings, froze for a moment, saw the child sink, and quickly swung his tail to swim over.
Worried that his fingernails would hurt the child, he held the boy in his arms and swam out of the water quickly.
"Cough, cough..." The boy's white face was flushed with coughing, with tears in his eyes, trying not to slip.
He subconsciously grasped An Jin's sleeve, and when he looked up, his expression froze.
At the same time, there were also guards chasing the child.
Although I knew that His Majesty had a mermaid, I didn't expect it to be so beautiful!
On the other hand, the guard of the Nuoji family did not expect to see the mermaid at all. In the next second, his face turned pale and he realized that his prince had made a big disaster.
Before Norman approached, he heard the exclamation from the villa, faintly heard the word 'mermaid', and his face darkened.
He looked at the live ball. The live ball was broadcast live in all directions, and the radio function was excellent. Now that it is closed, it is too late.
With an idea in his mind, he quickly walked to the back garden.
When he and Nogi arrived, what they saw was the scene where the blue mermaid sent Ian to the shore.
Ian came back to his senses, blinked his eyes, and tears rolled down his cheeks.
An Jin gently wiped his tears with his fingertips, the child's face was very soft with baby fat, and his heart softened, thinking that the child was frightened, and smiled softly at the child.
This scene was completely filmed by Norman's live broadcast.
The barrage instantly boiled.
