The Mermaid and the Harp 6
"I count to ten, and you tell me which rock I am under, ten ......"
"The second to last in the first row on the left."
"Ah???h
This is the ninth time Bai Wanwan has played this kind of boring game with Lan, no way, in order to pass the time.
There happened to be enough rocks on the bottom of the sea, and she wanted to hide behind a certain piece and let Lan guess where she was, but what made her unconvinced was that no matter where she was hiding, he could point it out accurately.
Bai Wanwan hung her head and curled her tail and sat on a flat reef: "This shouldn't be... I hid it well, and you didn't peek, why do you always know where I am? β
Lan pursed her lips slightly and smiled lightly: "I can tell which direction the sound is coming from." β
Bai Wanwan put her hands on her cheeks and asked back with some doubts: "But the sound of the sea is transmitted in the first place, how can you hear it clearly?" β
Lan didn't answer the question, but continued to speak: "No matter which stone you hide in, I can find you." β
His tone was not like a smile, but rather a joke. He should not be interested in this kind of child peek-a-boo.
Bai Wanwan lay on her stomach on the rock, one hand supporting her chin, and her tail curled in the air and fluttered from time to time. White hair fell from the rocks and fell into the sea and drifted away. How to look at how fairy.
Lan sat quietly in the glass room and watched her, her low eyelashes perfectly covering the emotions revealed inside.
He wiped the harp on his side before he spoke, "Have you ever been to the sea?" β
"The sea?"
There is actually a distance from the sea level, and even if Bai Wanwan exhausts his strength, he will at most touch the shallow water, and if he goes up, he will not be able to swim up.
She shook her head and flicked her tail very happily: "The sea is too far away...... By the way, why are you locked up in this, and who built this glass house? β
"Because they are not needed, they are abandoned here to fend for themselves."
Lan only responded to such a sentence in a calm tone, and at the end, he was afraid that Bai Wanwan would not understand, so he kindly added: "No one likes me in my family, so they don't want me anymore." β
"And what about your mother?"
Although she already knew the answer in her heart, Bai Wanwan still asked.
The corners of Lan's mouth pursed down: "She loves me very much, but no one loves her, so she died." β
ββ¦ How can no one love her, don't you like her? β
Lan shook her head very seriously: "Yes, I don't love her either." β
Bai Wanwan: "......"
This...... How to talk ..................
"So this glass house was built by your family?" Bai Wanwan cautiously changed the subject.
"Well, to abandon the unwanted."
"It's presumptuous, but I still wonder why don't you just kill people who don't need them... It took a lot of trouble to lock it up. β
001, who had been dormant and on standby, was shocked by the white demon's speech: "You are really presumptuous, hey!! β
She shouldn't be watching the villain's father being locked up and can't beat her, so she does whatever she wants!
Lan was obviously also shocked by this faux pas, but he raised his head and looked directly at Bai Wanwan, and Bai Wanwan's expression was very confused, looking like that kind of simple and without the slightest malice.
Lan thought, maybe it's because she lives at the bottom of the sea and doesn't understand human feelings......
"In the outside world, no murder is allowed."
"That can be poisoned, or cause accidental death, I see that your clothes are very good-looking, and the family should be quite rich."
Lan: "......"
It's just that... It's just that...... But it can be known that poisoning and killing mermaids has nothing to do with simplicity at all.
Seeing that Lan's face began to change subtly, Bai Wanwan changed the topic in time: "Then are you going to be locked up in it for the rest of your life?" Until death? Is there any way they can get them to let you out? β
Three questions in a row.
Lan stared at Bai Wanwan for two seconds, and then slowly looked away and looked at the pitch-black deep sea in the distance: "If they can't find what they want, maybe they just die inside." β
"What do they want?"
How did Bai Wanwan feel that the more she asked, the more confused she became.
"They want it, the treasure of the world."
ββ¦β¦β
The problem is that he can't get out of the house when he's locked up, and he can't get the baby.
Bai Wanwan was shocked by this strange story.
She swam a little closer to the glass cage, and looking at Lan who was obviously in a depressed mood inside, she had to try to comfort and comfort: "Don't be sad, even if you can't get out...... Anyway, you're still alive, and you weren't poisoned at home. β
Lan: "......"
He didn't feel comforted in the slightest.
Bai Wanwan, who was given zero in the coaxing area, fell into deep thought...... The two of them were silent for a few minutes, and then Bai Wanwan tentatively said slowly: "That's it!" In the future, we will find a way to rescue you together, and then you can run far away and find a random place to live happily. β
After that, she pressed the glass again and frowned: "If it is ordinary glass, it can be broken with stones." But this glass is very strange......"
She swam down and laboriously picked up a half-arm-sized corpse, then smashed it into the glass. She was afraid of hitting Lan, so she deliberately adjusted her position.
Obviously, her worries were unwarrantedβthe stone had shattered directly from the glass.
Bai Wanwan: "......"
Bai Wanwan: "I'm cracked." β
Lan: "? β
Bai Wanwan: "It's nothing, it's okay." β
With a black face, she swam forward and carefully examined the piece of glass that had been smashed, and there was not even a trace of scratches and ash on it, and it was still as smooth as new.
οΌοΌοΌ It's not glass, it's iron. Bai Wanwan began to suspect Yu Sheng.
Lan seemed to have expected this ending early on, and his expression did not look lost: "There is no way to get out unless you open it from the top with a key." β
"So what to do, it's a bit of a dilemma." Bai Wanwan touched the glass, and frowned again: "I can't just watch you die in it, right?" β
Lan chuckled: "Why not?" If she had lived long enough at the bottom of the sea, she would have seen other people inside. β
Bai Wanwan shook her head: "No...... I've only seen you one, the only one, I've just been here. β
"And where did you live before?"
This...... Bai Wanwan couldn't answer, so she had to prevaricate perfunctorily: "I came from a far sea, because a snowstorm ruthlessly destroyed my home, and brought heavy ...... to the family that was already struggling to make ends meet."
She was just about to order something to go by, but she vaguely saw something in the deep sea approaching beyond this side.
She squinted and looked at it for a moment, shocked.
That thing...... It's not ordinary.
