Chapter 281 Mermaid and Researcher 6
Chapter 281 Mermaid and Researcher 6
Qiuqiu and the little mermaids around him were originally very happy. They had never been fed by beautiful humans. They felt that the little fish became fragrant after passing through the hands of beauties.
Mo Heng didn't want Chu Yun to feed the other mermaids, so he unconsciously said, "Chu Yun."
Chu Jun indeed stopped, looked at the pitiful Mo Heng, and squatted down again, as if he had no intention of leaving.
The assistant understood what Dr. Chu meant and turned to feed the disappointed little mermaid.
After the other four mermaids had eaten and drunk their fill, Mo Heng still held the last fish and slowly polished it. He wanted Chu Jun to stay with him longer.
Chu Jun looked at the watch on his wrist. It was almost one o'clock and he was about to start his afternoon work.
However, before that, he still had a question that was not resolved.
He looked at Mo Heng and tilted his head slightly: "How do you know my name is Chu Yun?"
He was always called Dr. Chu or Teacher Chu in front of the mermaids, and no one had ever called him by his real name, or rather, no one in this tower would call him by his real name, so how did this black tail know?
Chu Yun was very curious.
Mo Heng's tail stiffened for a moment. He didn't expect that his excitement would reveal his true identity.
Although he could have made up a lie and said that he had overheard it while others were chatting, he didn't want to lie to Chu Jun.
Love that is deceived will eventually turn into bubbles. This is what people all say.
However, if Chu Yun was told the truth, could they still be together?
Seeing that Black Tail was hesitant and conflicted, Chu Jun didn't embarrass him any further: "Forget it, wait until you want to tell me."
Chu Jun touched Mo Heng's head, then stood up and left.
In the evening, Chu Jun was still in charge of feeding the baby. This time, Mo Heng swam to the surface and waited after Chu Jun came in, just like a good baby who ate obediently.
After that, every time it was time for dinner, Chu Jun had an additional task: he had to watch Mo Heng finish eating before he could leave.
Mo Heng also realized that his slow eating would affect Chu Yun's rest time, so he didn't hesitate any longer. He finished the fish and asked for a pat on the head.
Chu Jun also discovered that the higher-ups seemed to be quite tolerant of this. After several days passed, he did not receive any warnings.
Until today, Chu Yun received a letter from above.
However, the letter only responded to the experimental data he had reported, and did not mention anything about his relationship with Mo Heng.
Besides being confused, Chu Jun became more curious about the outside world.
Since he was born, he was told that the world outside was not a good place. Everyone said that the outside world was in chaos, something was causing trouble, and countless people went crazy and died. Only this isolated tower survived. With the efforts of many parties, the safety of everyone inside was preserved.
Chu Jun had heard more than once from the seniors who had the good fortune to enter the tower twenty years ago that their ability to live in this tower was a blessing from God.
Chu Jun didn't doubt it at first because everyone said so, but now he is more confused.
What exactly happened outside that made everyone so taboo? What kind of disaster was it that could not be spoken of?
After reading the letters I received, I found that they were all very official. At the end of the letters, Chu Jun was still encouraged, hoping that he would continue his research on mermaids and find a breakthrough to resolve the crisis.
Chu Jun put the letter back into the drawer, put aside the messy guesses in his head, and continued with today's experiment.
In the evening, Chu Yun returned to the dormitory only after the radio gave the final reminder that it was time to go to bed.
Although living alone since childhood made Chu Jun very independent, his life was indeed very rough. After taking a shower, he wrapped himself in pajamas and fell on the bed, rolled up the quilt and fell asleep.
The little tentacle waited until Chu Jun fell asleep before it dared to come out. Although no one could see it, it really liked the feeling of playing hide-and-seek.
Today, Chu Jun did not dry his hair before going to bed. He saw a human medical book today, which said that it is easy to get a headache if you do not dry your hair before going to bed.
In the eyes of the little tentacle, humans are very weak and a little bit of pain can make them collapse. Chu Jun is even more fragile. His wrists are very thin and can be easily circled by him. A little headache is a serious illness for him.
So, the diligent little tentacle transformed into Mr. Conch and prepared to help Chu Jun dry his hair!
His body was very small, only as long as a hand, and he had only a short whisker, which was the limit of what he could do to enter the tower.
Any more and the tower will collapse.
The small tentacle rushed to the bathroom and hooked up a corner of the towel.
"Oh my, even the towel smells good!"
The little tentacle controlled its desire to swallow the towel and floated to Chu Jun's bed with the towel hooked.
Chu Jun was exhausted from a full day of experiments and fell into a deep sleep as soon as he took the bed. The little tentacle gently lifted the curled-up Chu Jun up and stretched it like plasticine so that the towel could wrap around Chu Jun's head.
Chu Jun seemed to have a nightmare today. He kept moving around in the dream, and his head turned to the side just to avoid the towel.
The little tentacle, which had stretched itself to its longest, was a little distressed. The towel fell out of its reach. If Chu Jun tried to get the towel, he would fall down again.
Just as the little tentacle was thinking hard, a tear startled him.
The liquid fell into the air and finally wet the quilt.
The little tentacle is no longer the ignorant little tentacle from before. He now knows what this is.
They are human tears. Humans only shed tears when they are sad.
Crying is a very bad thing, because He saw in a book that people died while crying, and people called it "fragrant death and jade demise."
What is "death"? It seems like it means you will never see it again.
The little tentacle turned around and realized that if humans cried too much, they would never be seen again.
He doesn't want this.
The most important thing now is to wipe the tears of humans. The little tentacle gently put Chu Jun down and wiped the corners of Chu Jun's eyes with the tip of its tentacle.
He has no body temperature, but human skin is warm. Chu Jun, who was sleeping, seemed to have found something to rely on and turned sideways to try to keep the little tentacle.
But how big could a small tentacle be? Chu Jun was doomed to be empty-handed.
The little tentacle saw Chu Jun frowning and looking even more sad, and tears continued to fall silently.
It didn't take long for the thought to fade away. The tentacle's physical form gradually disappeared, transforming into a cloud of black mist before condensing into a humanoid figure.
The black tail swung, wrapped around Chu Jun's legs, and stuffed itself into Chu Jun's arms so that Chu Jun could hug it.
It’s just a pity that he can’t regulate his body temperature and is still a lump of ice.
Fortunately, Chu Jun didn't care. He held the little tentacle in his arms, buried his head in his neck, and muttered, "Mo Heng, Mo Heng..."
There are no more tears, and there is even a smile on the corners of my mouth
The little tentacle wagged its tail happily.
"Chu Jun called me, yeah!"
