Because he was stopped by the staff for interrogation, after looking at it for a while, he found that the situation was just the opposite. It was the boy who was pestering the blue-faced staff to force him to listen to him.

Of course, Su Muqiu also saw his situation, except that he was nervous for a while at first, and then he was interested in guessing what Ye Xiu said to the other party. Finally, when Ye Xiu walked towards Su Muqiu slowly, the latter was already The state of frowning with a cold face.

"Isn't it too long?!"

Seeing Su Muqiu slowly put his fingers together and clenched his fist, Ye Xiu hurriedly pushed his back, saying that our car will take us there, let's go for a walk.

Behind the two, a few people who looked like ordinary travelers were mixed in the crowd, following behind quietly with a distance of hundreds of meters.

Ye Xiuruo turned his head with a sense of feeling, took a few steps skillfully, and protected Su Muqiu behind him, and then he was pulled by him, "If you don't get home soon, it will be midnight", Ye Xiu responded, and glanced for a while, The last few steps followed Su Muqiu who was waiting there, and the two picked out an exquisite and lovely orange hair accessory as a gift for Su Mucheng, and then returned to City H.

Su Muqiu wakes up, skillfully pushes away the fishtail tightly wrapped around her legs, moves her numb legs for a while, gets out of bed to wash, puts on her uniform and rolls up her sleeves, goes into the kitchen and frys eggs and ham in hot oil, When the toast was ready, Su Mucheng, carrying her schoolbag, walked briskly to the dining table and sat down.

The brother and sister said good morning to each other and had breakfast harmoniously. Before going out, the sleepy Ye Xiu pushed open the door, yawned and looked sleepy. He changed his shoes and leaned against the door to wait for the two of them. Bit by bit, Su Muqiu stuffed a mouthful of toast with ham and eggs.

"If you're sleepy, go on sleeping."

"I'm awake." Ye Xiu chewed the breakfast prepared by Su Muqiu, put one hand crookedly on his shoulder, and closed his eyelids again after a while: "Maybe I haven't woken up yet, Mr. Su, please navigate." .”

"You've been saying that for days."

Su Muqiu patted him on the forehead, Ye Xiu sighed that he was cruel and ruthless, bent down lazily, put his head on Su Mucheng's shoulder, and muttered nonchalantly: "Mucheng, your brother is so cruel, it's up to you."

"Okay." The little girl smiled, and she really dragged Ye Xiu out of the door, but after a few steps, Ye Xiu stood up straight by himself, without any laziness on Su Muqiu, and pulled Su Mu Orange's left hand.Su Muqiu who locked the door said a few words to him while holding the little girl's right hand.

The three went downstairs and walked leisurely towards the primary school. Su Mucheng listened to the conversation between the two family members. One said, "Hey, how did you eat? The corners of your mouth are covered with egg yolk", and the other replied, "Is there any, here? There?" , she looked up, and happened to see her brother pull another boy's chin, and licked the corner of the latter's lips. At the end, Su Muqiu praised his handicraft, Ye Xiu licked his lips seriously, and said, Mu Qiu, you are a man. Wiping only half of his mouth, he leaned over and wiped the oily shine from his mouth onto Su Muqiu's lips.

Su Mucheng held the hands of the two of them: "Brother, Ye Xiu, why are you sending me to school these days?"

"Because you're in a good mood?" Ye Xiu replied.

"Don't listen to his nonsense. Mucheng, a child was kidnapped around here before, and the kidnapper hasn't been caught yet, so try not to be alone, it's too dangerous." Su Muqiu said seriously: "Remember to wait for Ye and me after school." Fix you."

Ye Xiu added from the side: "It's terrible to be caught, limbs and limbs will be cut off, and the current kidnappers are so cruel."

Su Mucheng let out an oh, and looked at Ye Xiu who didn't look like a fake, and Su Muqiu who wanted to yell at him and finally curled his lips to keep silent. He didn't ask why the school teacher didn't remind him of this, but just stood in front of the school gate and looked at him. The two waved their hands: "I see. Don't leave alone either!"

The two watched the little girl run into the classroom, and looked at each other: "Does Mucheng know something?"

"Maybe…"

They turned to the jewelry store where Su Muqiu worked, and Ye Xiu walked a few steps before hanging onto the other person. This time, Su Muqiu didn't push him away, but tightened Ye Xiu's arm to prevent him from rolling down halfway.

Su Muqiu: "I seem to remember that someone used to push the door open for me? Now he is very honest."

Ye Xiu: "One moment, another moment."

Su Muqiu complained about why he suddenly changed from one moment to another.

Ye Xiu's face was full of sincerity: "At that time, I didn't know that the world was dangerous, but now I understand, I would be afraid to be alone at home."

"Get out." Su Muqiu rolled his eyes at him, pondered for a moment, and whispered in a low voice: "Is there anyone else following?"

"...Yes." Ye Xiu leaned against Su Muqiu, closed his eyes, and squeezed his tense shoulders: "Don't be too nervous. It's easy to relax when you're stretched to the limit. Accidents always happen at this time."

That's what hunting is all about, he said.

"You too." Su Muqiu lightly touched the blue eyes of Ye Xiu, knowing in his heart that Ye Xiu hadn't slept all night and was guarding them in the middle of the night: "Later, sleep in the lounge for a while, I told the store manager about it." It's convenient to let you stay at home alone, she said it's okay to let you stay. I'll call you up for dinner at noon. "

"Okay." Ye Xiu replied, suddenly stopped and stood for a while, then shook his head, leaning against Su Muqiu and yawned again.

During the few days after returning to City H, the two seemed restless.

At first, Ye Xiu was just walking on the road, often looking at the flowers and plants around him as if nothing had happened, or turning his head to look behind him from time to time, as if he accidentally heard the voice of an acquaintance on the street.His behavior was very natural, but Su Muqiu felt that he was having a convulsion, and the fish tail kept wrapping around him at night, it was impossible for Su Muqiu to be unconscious.

When Su Muqiu was awakened by the quietly entangled tail again in the middle of the night, and Su Muqiu asked seriously, Ye Xiu didn't hide anything, and directly stated the reason: "Mu Qiu, someone is following us."

"...the research institute?"

"I don't know." Ye Xiu, who looked like a young man, half hugged Su Muqiu, resting on his shoulder, covering most of his body.In this state, the fishtail can cover a larger area.

Su Muqiu lowered his eyes, the hem of Ye Xiu's T-shirt was rubbed open, revealing a small waistline.He caressed the old wounds on Ye Xiu's waist and abdomen, and the several light-colored scars were proof that the other party had experienced countless dangers in the sea.This predator can still act like nothing serious during the day, but at night it stubbornly protects him. Su Muqiu straightened Ye Xiu up and patted him on the back: "Hey, I told you to block the gun , just joking. And you are the target of the research institute."

"You're joking, but I'm not." Ye Xiu sighed, "I at least have scales, and you don't have anything. You're like a trumpet stripped of your equipment and running naked. You don't even need Barrett to snipe. Otherwise, I can rest assured." Are you sleeping?"

Su Muqiu snorted, and hugged Ye Xiu's waist tightly: "Then your meat shield is good."

But even if they knew the reason, they had no better way.The enemy is in the dark, and because they don't know the plan of the institute, the passive two decided to pretend to be ignorant, trying to let the other party out, maybe Ye Xiu could catch someone and force him to question him.

The two of them looked like they were easy to catch, but the other party didn't make a move for a long time, and the ominous premonition was like a sharp knife, hanging heavily in their hearts all the time.After dinner last night, Su Mucheng took advantage of Ye Xiu to take a shower, and secretly told Su Muqiu that Ye Xiu’s hand was scalded when he was cooking at night. Su Muqiu teased him that “dinner smells like fried fish”, but Ye Xiu just said nothing With a sound, there was silence, and the tail fin rolled Su Muqiu unmoved.

If this continues, they will be exhausted first.

"Mucheng and I are both safe, you should catch up on your sleep." Su Muqiu repeated these words tirelessly, and took a thin blanket from the lounge cabinet and threw it to Ye Xiu.

"Mu Qiu." Ye Xiu said, "If I leave..."

Su Muqiu stared at him.

Ye Xiu stopped talking.

"Stay here obediently, don't run around, do you hear me?" Su Muqiu said.

"I promise to complete the task." Ye Xiu replied wrapped in the blanket full of Su Muqiu's breath.

It's a pity that his mission failed in just a few hours. Although Ye Xiu stayed in peace according to Su Muqiu's instructions, it was difficult for him to rest well without watching Su Muqiu who was alive and kicking with his own eyes.

So, when store manager Chu opened the door and asked him if he could help move some things, Ye Xiu nodded without hesitation, and ostentatiously slipped into the store to contribute labor, making Su Muqiu, who wanted him to sleep a little longer, very upset. Pinch him a few times.

After a busy day, Su Muqiu got off work early, dragged Ye Xiu straight to the primary school to pick up Su Mucheng, and the three of them went to the supermarket to do some shopping. Xiu quarreled, and when they got home, the two of them were busy cooking and arguing. In the end, they accidentally overcooked the dishes. The table was full of meat and vegetables, and there was a roast chicken that was on sale. It was so rich that Mucheng opened it. Calendar, make sure today is not Chinese New Year.

The three members of the Su family let go of their food, until everyone couldn't walk with their belly on their stomachs, and fell into a blissful sleep in a chair.

Su Muqiu was lying on the bed, pulled up the quilt, and heard Ye Xiu, who had washed the dishes, enter the room. After a rustle beside him, a pair of cotton trousers were kicked out of the bed. Su Muqiu was clever.

The weather was cold, Ye Xiu's scales were of course as cold as ice, and the mermaid's body temperature was low, it seemed that it couldn't be warmed up.Su Muqiu shivered from the cold, grabbed Ye Xiu's cold fingers and rubbed them for a while, until Ye Xiu felt his body temperature and finally warmed up, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

"Your tail is so cold to me." Su Muqiu said that if the weather gets colder in the future, the temperature on the surface of the scales will drop below zero, and it will really frostbite people. No matter when the time comes Ye Xiule didn't like it, so he had to sleep on the floor.

"Below zero... there will be snow on the land." Ye Xiu said.

"Do mermaids hibernate?"

"will not."

The deep sea will not freeze, and the coldest time is basically around zero degrees, which is different from the ten or twenty degrees below zero on land.Besides, if it was too cold, he could follow the ocean current to the warmer waters. Mermaids have always been so free.

"So this is your first winter on land?"

Ye Xiu thought about it, "Probably."

"It will be very cold then, I have to take you to buy some down jackets and add a thicker quilt, otherwise your tail fin will not be covered."

"You can't turn on the heat in the house."

Su Muqiu immediately replied: "It's too expensive!"

Ye Xiu groaned, only to burp a little.Su Muqiu reached under his clothes, pinched the soft meat with fine scales between the waist and the fish tail, "How much have you eaten? Let me save for tomorrow's breakfast and save money to turn on the heating."

Ye Xiu couldn't laugh or cry: "You can't do it, how much money can be saved by making my breakfast less."

"A small amount of money makes a lot. If you want to make a fortune, you have to start from the daily details. Even if you save a copper coin, you can make money." Su Muqiu said.

Ye Xiu shrank his head into the bed, put it on Su Muqiu's shoulder and refused to get up, and whispered in his ear that instead of waking up hungry all morning, he chose to get up at noon: "Mu Qiu...I want to eat your cooking."

"Isn't it me who cooks these few days?" Su Muqiu hugged the hypothermic Ye Xiu tighter, and took advantage of the opportunity to put his terribly cold hands on the latter's neck, keeping warm in a fair manner, "Get up early tomorrow. "

"Ok?"

"When I'm making breakfast, you remember to come and help, and I'll force you to share a few bites then."

"Okay." Ye Xiu rolled his eyes.

Su Muqiu pulled up the quilt and began to think about what to do tomorrow morning. While estimating how much material was left in the refrigerator, she unconsciously closed her eyes.

Like every peaceful day, the two leaned on each other and slipped peacefully into sleep.

The next morning, the person in the bed woke up in the faint morning light. It was still very early, far from the usual time to wake up. When he opened his eyes, he remembered the breakfast appointment last night.

He vaguely called the other person's name, and reached out to touch the side of the bed. The other half of the bed, which was a little messy, only had a little residual warmth that was about to dissipate in the cold morning air.

The people who were supposed to be by my side were nowhere to be seen.
