How to keep a human in captivity

Arthur's humans are sick.

The news exploded from the center of the Mermaid Plaza to the surrounding area. By the time Arthur got the news, it was about an hour later.

Mermaid Arthur rubbed his forehead and woke up from his shell bed, he knew he couldn't escape this state.

Anxiety, oh, bloody anxiety.

Arthur stroked his tail and swam towards the square, where many mermaids had already gathered.Mermaids love humans, if you ask them why they like humans, they will ask you why you don't like humans.

Of course, this is a question related to the merfolk's philosophy of life, and philosophy will always stun any creature.

The enthusiasm of the mermaids is sometimes a burden. Arthur strenuously passed through the mermaid wall and swam towards the Heart of Gold.This is not too difficult, because when the mermaids found out that the person pushing them was Arthur, they had already taken the initiative to move their fish tails.

Arthur thanked him for that, but he didn't have time to think about it, he moved closer to the glass wall.

Oh, and his humans do look awful.

He lay motionless on the shell bed, his face paler than when they first met.

And Ford and Janford stood on the side, one with two heads hanging down in a very dejected look, while the other had an expression of hating iron for not being able to make steel.

It seemed clear at a glance who caused the trouble.

Arthur took a deep breath, he felt his head throbbing: "Can anyone tell me what happened?"

Ford tried to speak, but Arthur stopped him, and he kept his eyes on Janford for a long time, until the latter's two heads couldn't bear to touch together.

"I did it." The two-headed Zhanford made a sonorous expression of generosity.

"I just want to know what's going on," said Arthur, "and your problem, I'll come back to discuss it with you after we've settled our present problem. Now, explain, please?"

Mermaid Arthur usually has a good temper, as long as you don't provoke him when he is anxious, and now there is probably another limitation added: don't provoke Arthur's humans.

"I just gave him some algae. He can't just eat fish every day." Not long ago, Zhanford also made a big contribution, because he successfully developed a machine that can grill meat on the reef, a human recipe are expanded and improved, but seaweed is never included in these foods.

"Humans need to get enough vitamins, so I gave him some algae."

The well-meaning mermaid scientist Zhanford personally caused a food poisoning accident.

"Some proteins, polysaccharides, vitamin C, taurine, methionine..." Human John opened his eyes after hearing Arthur's voice. He slowly moved to the side of the glass wall and sat down, " Maybe there are other ingredients that are harmful to my body, but it is not as serious as you imagine."

"Human beings are indeed fragile." Jenford's two heads touched together, and said in a tone of infinite compassion, "They can't even eat vinaigrette."

After being ignored for so long, Ford finally came up with a proposal that seemed to work.

"Perhaps he needs a doctor."

The witch doctor Tricia refused the request to visit humans. She trimmed her beautiful nails in front of Arthur and others. By the way, the manicure knife was probably one of the items left by humans long, long ago.

Tricia keeps it as shiny as it was fresh from the factory, and then spends even more time caring for her nails.

"Actually, if human beings can't eat algae." Tricia blew on her fingernails, blowing out a series of beautiful bubbles smoothly, "that means most of the medicines here are poisonous to human beings." Yes, unless you want a murder, stop your stupid plans."

"But if even you can't heal humans, what are we supposed to do?"

"Oh, why don't you go to the Kraken, he can always fulfill the wishes of the mermaids."

"It's just a price to pay." Ford frowned. He had an irreconcilable conflict with the siren siren. "I really don't suggest that we do this."

"But we have no choice." Arthur turned around and grabbed Janford, and quickly swam towards the direction they came from. From a distance, Janford with two heads could be heard making an inexplicable sound, and Arthur Clear, unwavering sound.

"We have to make some preparations."

Mermaids love humans.

Siren sirens are especially fanatical about this.

For a long time, the siren siren tried to find a way to let humans accompany him. He was the first mermaid to try to keep humans in captivity, but his skills were really bad, and in the myths circulated by humans , the Siren always represents the evil one, even he is a bad guy who induces shipwreck with singing.

To some extent, this is indeed what he did, but the purpose is not as human beings guessed, he is trying to take away human souls.

To sum up, the first problem that Arthur's team needs to solve is that they must not let the sirens discover that John is a human.

"I have a diving suit here..." Mermaid scientist Zhanford began to glow again, "It can reduce the resistance of his swimming in sea water."

"But he doesn't look like a mermaid at all." Arthur pointed out the crux of the problem worryingly, he felt that his anxiety was torturing his nerves.

"At this time we will need the Babel fish." A small yellow fish jumped in Ford's palm, "The Babel fish is yellow, smaller in size, and looks more like a leech, but none of this will affect Its function. It can make any creature obtain a pair of fish gills in a short period of time, and the duration is seven days. As long as you put it in your ear, you can swim freely on the bottom of the sea.”

"Gills are always important," concluded Janford, "so that we can tell the siren that this is an unfortunate merman who has lost his tail and is allergic to longstem."

Arthur nodded: "Sounds reasonable."

"Oh, there is another one mentioned in the instructions for use." Ford dug out a copy of the "Code of Submarine Species" from somewhere, and turned to the chapter on Babel fish, "When using Babel fish, you must not @#￥%￥#”

"what?"

"@#￥%￥#" Ford continued to spit out incomprehensible words and sentences.

"@#￥%￥#?" Arthur decided to ignore it. "We'll just use Babel fish."

After 3 minutes, Arthur's temporary adventure team was assembled.

The human John successfully stuffed the Babel fish into his ear, and a pair of perfect fish gills appeared immediately behind his ear. He touched this novel thing, and the touch felt quite strange.

Then he put on a wetsuit.

He does look perfect except for the lack of a fishtail.

Arthur held his hand, leading him to adapt to the buoyancy and resistance of the sea, and his human seemed not as weak as before.

A worried Arthur fails to spot his human tricks.

No human being is willing to be kept in a glass aquarium.

Humans are satisfied with how things are going.

He can always find a way out of the tank.
