090 A corner of the future
The storage room of the mermaid café.
"There are large burn marks on the back, the bones of both arms are severely broken, the internal organs are mutilated, and there are nearly ten knife marks on the body, plus severe blood loss and muscle collapse."
"To be honest, when Winnie brought this man back a few days ago, I thought it was a lifeless corpse."
"It's just that after simple healing, it can be bandaged to prevent blood loss, so it can still survive tenaciously, it's really a humanoid monster."
The door of the storage room opened, Zoren lay unconscious in the innermost part of the bed and simply set up the bed, the whole body was densely bandaged by medical bandages, especially the arms were almost bandaged and fixed into zongzi, the ground was full of shredded bloody clothing fragments, disinfectant water and bloody gas were still slightly diffused in the indoor air.
When Papagu saw the hidden scene in the store with his own eyes, he almost trembled with fright, and said in panic, "Wait, you brought a human back and put it here to heal?" That's a big heart! ”
Since the beginning of the era of sea pirates, many aliens passing through Fish-Man Island have begun to carry out large-scale abduction and looting of the fish-people and merfolk on the island, which also makes the residents of Fish-Man Island continue to accumulate hatred for humans, and the relationship between the two races is also constantly deteriorating, and it is difficult to improve.
In recent years, there have been fewer and fewer humans living on Fish-Man Island. Outsiders must be subjected to strict interrogation by the Fish-Man soldiers of the Kingdom.
"Don't worry, he's my savior, not like any other human. This time I was accidentally caught by human traffickers, and thanks to him, I was able to save it. Winnie explained, filling a plate of warm water with her face and sitting on the edge of the bed and carefully wiping Zoren's face with a damp towel.
The camouflage on his body had been completely removed when he fell into the sea, and after Winnie gently wiped the blood from his face with a warm towel, the young man's knife-like face was revealed, and the cross knife mark on his chin gave him a maturity beyond his years.
"What? You've been caught by traffickers from the outside world?! Papagu patted her chest with palpitations and gasped, "I was caught by those guys, but I basically don't have a chance to return to Fish-Man Island-"
The shopkeeper Xia Li sat elegantly on the chair next to the bed, the lower half of the dark fishtail with a perfect smooth arc stranded on the side, took out the ashtray and lit it with sophistication, glanced at Papagu angrily, and said commandingly, "It's just right for one more person, take care of me." In order to save the human, I soiled my new coffee shop. ”
"Oooh!"
Papagu picked up the broom in the store and worked hard to clean up the clothes and garbage on the ground.
Winnie gratefully to Charlie, "Thanks to the store manager, I wouldn't have known where he was placed." ”
"That's right." As if remembering something, Papagu said loudly, "You haven't told the patrol soldiers of the Fish-Man Kingdom about this human thing, have you?" ”
Xia Li's eyes fell on Zoren's body, spit out a puff of cigarette, and said coldly, "Naturally, I can't let them know!" ”
"This is also something I ask you to keep secret. His injuries were so severe that if the patrol soldiers on the island knew that he had entered the country illegally, they might have taken him back for interrogation. Winnie said worriedly.
Papagu thought for a moment and said, "Then who is he, he is so badly injured, he can't be a pirate or something, right?" ”
"It must have something to do with the attack on the Draconians in the Chambord Islands a few days ago."
As he spoke, Xia Li threw a newspaper from the drawer on the table, and the homepage on it described in detail the events that happened in the Chambord Islands a few days ago, after all, the attack on the three Draco world nobles and the two new generals were not small at all, and among them, as the main culprit in this incident, Tezzolo, who also 'escaped' from the hands of the two generals, and his 200 million bounty black and white photos also dominated a large part of the page.
Papagu emptied the garbage into the trash can and said in horror, "You mean he could be one of Tezzolo's men?" Was it a prisoner arrested by the Navy? ”
"According to Winnie, he was seen at the auction house, and then he was beaten so much that he fell into the sea. Nature is not such a simple character. Xia Li's cold face was still calm, and he said lightly, "But since he saved Winnie in the auction house, it can be regarded as a favor to our mermaids, and when he recovers, let him leave our Fish-Man Island." ”
"Thank you, manager." Winnie hurriedly bent down and thanked him gratefully.
"Since it's Winnie's savior, that's my friend, he's here on Fish-Man Island, I'm covered!"
Papa's costume coolly lifted his sunglasses, and the lenses refracted the shining light sideways.
"Thank you, Mr. Papagu." Winnie gratefully responded for Zorren, her sky-blue eyes lit up slightly.
"It's just you, just don't make a mess." Xia Li sneered and continued to instruct, "This person's self-recovery ability is very strong, but we don't have meat here, you can make him some meat porridge with the Sea King meat you brought over, and feed him, I feel that it will be very helpful for his body to heal." ”
"Do as you are told, ma'am." Papagu blinked.
Being called Madame, Charlie doesn't care about it, although she is only in her early sixteens, but as a sharp-nosed mako shark mermaid with mysterious and bizarre divination abilities, she has been revered by some mermaids in the kingdom since she was a child, and is often called "Lady Charly".
"You can take care of him here first."
Shari scrambled up from her chair and retreated from the storage room that served as a hospital room to the lobby of the coffee shop.
At the coffee desk, there are all kinds of tools for mixing coffee.
She started to heat the kettle, grinded the coffee beans into a uniform brown powder, poured a little amount with a spoon into the glass, poured an appropriate amount of hot water with a slight stirring, and the whole process of brewing coffee was elegant and skillful.
A faint aroma of coffee wafted through the air, removing the faint smell of blood.
Xia Li did not give priority to the coffee, but placed it on the table, opened a camera obscura in the front cabinet, and slowly took out a crystal ball in it with her white and slender hands.
It was a crystal ball with a certain mysterious aura, with a purple precious cloth underneath, and when it was placed on the table in front of him, it shimmered with a strange shimmer.
Under the gaze of Xia Li's amber eyes, the transparent crystal ball began to gradually reveal the content of the portrait, and the line picture began to appear from blurred to clear.
Standing on the top of the peak of the submarine mountain, he jumped up like thunder, raised his hand and clenched his fist, and directly sank most of the hull of a huge island like an island, and the debris fell and rushed towards Fish-Man Island.
The picture of the crystal ball zooms in, and the faces of the people in the screening are clearly presented.
His face was as resolute as a knife, his chin was cut with a cross, and the corners of his mouth were drawn with an incomprehensible smile.
