She was actually not very tall, probably about the average height of all women, but she was thin and looked a little frail. She looked small on the overly large bed. Her face was red, perhaps because of the fever. She tossed and turned in the quilt, feeling so uncomfortable that she had no strength, but could not sleep well because of the discomfort.

It looked so pathetic.

After about an hour, a soft "pat, pat" sound came from the huge suite. It didn't sound like someone walking, but rather like something wet hitting the ground.

But soon, the clapping sound turned into footsteps.

"Really sick?"

The voice was so soft that even an S-class would have difficulty detecting it.

"Who's there? Give me a glass of water."

Song Yu closed his eyes, and the footsteps obviously stopped for a moment, but when he saw that she fell into a deep sleep again, he continued to move forward.

He was a quite young man, looking less than 20 years old, no, even only 16 or 17 years old, which was just the age to be considered a teenager in the Interstellar Empire.

He was not very tall, about 178cm, and was wearing a black robe, with bare legs and bare feet. There were water droplets hanging on his legs, which were smooth and white, comparable to those of a woman.

His skin was too pale, the kind of pale that was sickly pale. His eyes were black, and his pupils were larger than those of an average person. His black hair was slightly curled like a waterfall that reached his waist, with a slight blue tint at the ends.

As mysterious and strange as the deep sea, with a curl of the corners of her mouth, she became three points more charming.

Suddenly, dozens of branches emerged from nowhere and rushed towards the man.

The man seemed to be trying to escape, but he froze in place because his ability was suppressed and he failed to open the space portal. Of course, that was only for a moment, and even if he couldn't open the portal, he wouldn't surrender.

He spun and jumped a few times, avoiding most of the branches. The occasional ones that got entangled with him were quickly thrown off or shattered by him.

At this moment, he saw Fenghuang outside the window, and Tang Zhishu and Sha Lang at the door.

They were not locked up and were even hiding at the door of Song Yu's bedroom.

The boy realized that he had fallen into a trap. Although he was SS-level, his main ability was in space teleportation. He would not be able to resist four S-levels in a fight.

Moreover, this is Star 002 in the Capital Star Circle. Even if he defeated the four S-class in front of him, what would it matter? Duan Tianya would get the news soon.

The boy gave up resisting and the branches tied him up easily.

Song Yu threw back the quilt and got out of bed.

"I'm so bored. It's so tiring to pretend to be sick. You're really patient. You've only just come out after two days."

"If we hadn't acted together, he wouldn't know how long he would have waited."

Tang Zhishu took off the small decorative flower on the mirror at the door. There was a very secret video device inside.

This guy took advantage of the fact that everyone was busy with Song Yu killing Jiang Honglian and was not in Bai Ze Palace to install three highly concealed devices in Song Yu's bedroom. However, Feng Han and the others still found them with their experience and naked eyes. Song Yu only announced that he had found two, which was actually for him to see. The last one was a trap left by Song Yu to take advantage of the situation.

She guessed that he couldn't help but come out when he saw that she was in an abnormal state and the three matches were not there.

This person hid in a corner and watched the entire live broadcast when she was getting close to Jiang Yan! Song Yu gnashed her teeth in hatred, and it was a sign of her strong endurance that she didn't have any psychological trauma.

The branches tied the man tightly.

"Be gentle, it hurts." The boy frowned and said dissatisfiedly, "How stingy! I just secretly took a look at you."

"Who are you?" Song Yu asked.

"You don't remember?" The young man looked into Song Yu's eyes seriously, then seemed to understand something, his eyes drooping. "That's right, you really don't remember. My name is Wu Lingjiu, a mermaid with spatial abilities. Do you want me to sing a song for you?"

According to legend, the mermaid's singing has the effect of bewitching people.

"I should remember you?" Song Yu raised her eyebrows. Only she knew her own affairs. She was a time traveler and was a little unsure whether this Wu Lingjiu was an old acquaintance.

"I am your friend from your previous life."

After saying that, he chuckled, his laughter like a ghost from the deep sea.

Song Yu was horrified. A normal person would think that past lives were nonsense, but she was not like that.

She couldn't recall any good friends she'd ever had, especially men. Although she'd had two boyfriends, they'd both ended abruptly, with no deep, lasting love to speak of. Besides, neither of them had Wu Lingjiu's personality.

But this person does give a familiar feeling, like a friend who has known each other for many years and has been separated for many years. If she didn't know Wu Lingjiu, then could it be that the real Song Yu knew him?

Did he see through my transmigration and take over the real Song Yu's body? So many thoughts flooded my mind at once.

But if Song Yu had recognized him long ago, why would he release strange beasts where she and her home were?

"Mermaid?" Jiang Yan stared at the laughing Wu Lingjiu with an icy gaze. "What does the mermaid in my mother's video have to do with you?"

"Who? Oh, you mean Jiang Honglian? That's my dad. I recorded the video. What do you think of it?"

"Are you a strange beast?" Song Yu stared at Wu Ling for a long time.

"Don't say such harsh words. 'Monster' is just a name you gave us. We still prefer to call ourselves mermaids. How can we be the same as those stupid beasts?"

Song Yu, Jiang Yan, and Tang Zhishu exchanged glances. Indeed, the question of whether mermaids were animals or humans was probably a gray area.

"What's your purpose in following me?" Song Yu asked.

Wu Lingjiu seemed to be stumped by this question. He spread his hands and said, "Purpose? I don't have any purpose."

Song Yu was almost laughing out of anger. "You threw a strange beast at my place without any purpose? You almost killed my whole family. Don't you know how many people died at your hands?"

Wu Lingjiu still looked innocent. "No matter how many people died, what does it have to do with me? Exotic beasts are so fun. They are stupid and violent."

Song Yu controlled a soft branch and whipped Wu Lingjiu.

"What do you mean by 'what does human life have to do with you?' If human life has nothing to do with you, then what does your life have to do with me?"

"what--"

Wu Lingjiu screamed in pain as the branch whipped his arm. His eyes turned red in pain and blood flowed down his sleeves.

Song Yu was shocked. She didn't use much strength. Not to mention SS-level, even the skin of an ordinary minor would not be injured like this.

So, are all mermaids crispy?

Soon, a tear fell and turned into a snow-white pearl when it landed on the ground.

Song Yu picked it up and saw that the pearl had a warm luster and was obviously a top-quality product.

She whipped Wu Lingjiu again and said, "Come on, a few more pearls will make enough for a pearl necklace. Since my pain has nothing to do with you, then what does your pain have to do with me?"

Having said that, she still restrained most of her strength this time. Wu Lingjiu screamed, but there was no bleeding.

Two or three more pearls rolled down.

"How could you do this?" Wu Lingjiu's face was full of grievance. "It hurts a lot."

"Compared to the lives lost on Planet 006 and the life of my brother, your injury is nothing."

"Master, he might be a high-ranking alien beast. Why don't we hand him over to the military?" Jiang Yan suggested.

Wu Lingjiu was still crying, but she had no more tears, let alone pearls.

Song Yu looked at Wu Lingjiu and hesitated. If it were before, she would have killed him directly once she caught him, but he did help a lot with Jiang Honglian that time.

Most importantly, is he really a "friend from the previous life"?

"First, lock him up in the underground cell and have Feng Han send someone to guard him well." Song Yu made a decision that went against his original intention. "Don't tell anyone about this for now."

"Sister, do you still remember me?" Wu Lingjiu asked, looking at Song Yu with his dark eyes pleadingly.

Song Yu shook her head, but the word "sister" made her feel like she had seen it before.

Wu Lingjiu was quickly taken away. Bai Ze Palace had its own prison cell, located underground in the garden. Although it was small, it was very sturdy. As long as he continued to use the device given by Zhang Nanyi to suppress his abilities, he would not be able to escape.

"Does the patriarch really know him? Or has he been bewitched by him?" At this time, Tang Zhishu spoke.

"Charm?"

Yes, mermaids can also be charming. After Wu Lingjiu was taken away, that familiar feeling suddenly faded away.

So everything he just said was just for the sake of charm?

"Why did you just remind me?"

It was obvious that Tang Zhishu did not agree to hand Wu Lingjiu over to the military. He was too important and a decision could not be made hastily.
