Chapter 7: New Friends
Yes, when I opened my eyes, I found that the sun was above my head, and there were a few small green shrimp lying around me that looked like they were stranded, and occasionally jumped up and spit bubbles, which was very interesting. The strong sunlight made my mind return to the strong light that was just born from the belly of the Chinese sturgeon in my childhood, this natural light is different from the artificial light at that time, that I just feel very comfortable, in addition, I actually have a kind of "illusion" that my dream has finally come true after a lot of hardships - I know, although I saw such light again, but there is no longer a Chinese sturgeon with blue scales around me, I am no longer a foil in the newspaper and a supporting role for others, but, This time I became my own protagonist. I was a little sore because I had been swimming for a long time, but I saw that the closest thing to me was a small hermit crab.
Relieved by the excitement and doubts, I began to analyze my surroundings again, and wondered if superpowers that could only be achieved in the shadows could continue after being exposed to bright light. So, I stared at the small hermit crab with green shells next to me. One second, two seconds...... Time passed, and I suddenly realized that there was no blue light in front of my eyes anymore. I didn't know what was going on, but I was so frightened that I wanted to crawl towards the hermit crab, but as soon as I stretched out my front paws, I felt extremely heavy, and my thumb on my paws was worn out, and my toes were very painful. My shell was so heavy—no, it was soft before, but now it was so hard, I looked at my shadow in the sun, oh my God! I'm so much bigger than the hermit crab, and look at the reference next to me - this is obviously an abandoned aquarium staff backstage, with people in blue uniforms shuttling above my head, I can't understand their language, but based on previous experience, I can tell that after the shimmer tunnel just now, my body has become much larger. That was my reward and the second dilemma I faced. I was wondering how I could overcome gravity and settle the barrier to communication with hermit crabs (I also wanted to have a friend) when a shrill voice came from behind me and scared me into my shell.
"Hello, big turtle, our new friend. This is the abandoned yard of the aqua park, and you should be able to see that we are all obsolete aquarium products. There are some people who like to buy some animals and raise them, but because they don't understand their habits, sometimes disaster strikes. This is a place where the aquarium animals run out on their own, or are temporarily thrown here by the aquarium service staff because they are sick. We're curious, we haven't met you, so how did you get here. Aha! “。
This voice lasted for a long time, and then I slowly poked my head out with the content of his words, because I couldn't see him, I said to myself: "My name is Detective, I ran out of the house because I got superpowers, I haven't seen the sun for a long time, I ......" Before I finished speaking, the voice got closer and closer to me, and then I felt something stuck on my back.
What is it? I thought of the mosquito that was kind to me lying on my back in the bathroom of Ah Zhen's house. At the time, I didn't understand its words, but now I hear them more and more clearly.
I felt wet, worse than the moisture in the bathroom.
"Who are you?" I asked tentatively. A few green shrimp across from me were bouncing, laughing in their mouths, their tentacles facing forward, swaying and saying, "Look! The snail is lying on the back of the turtle and basking in the sun! ”
I then realized that I was talking to a snail, but I never imagined that my back was now wide enough to accommodate a large snail with such ample strength—though I could not see him, it was entirely conceivable.
Feeling that he was stuck to my back and didn't come down, I turned my head over and smiled at him, as if to say, "Hello! My good friend. ”
After this round, I realized: it turned out that my sense of hearing and the perception of language were more sensitive, and I don't know if other special functions had degenerated. I'm going to start my new adventure with this giant snail soon!
