Desharow Mermaid - Chap 25

　I stumbled and ran out of the elevator back to the land. It was pouring rain outside, and the sky above my head was covered with dark clouds, just like my mood at the moment. I ran wildly in the rain, and came to the beach unknowingly.

　I knelt down on a bare reef beach, propped up my trembling arms, and looked at the boundless sea in despair. The boundary between the sea and the sky in the distance was blurred in a gray haze, and my sight was also trapped in this place. In a terrible trap. I suddenly remembered “The Truman Show”. At this moment, I am so pitiful and pitiful like the protagonist. I devote myself to research, but I turn my life into a wonderful show!

　True world…

　what is true and what is false in this world. Everything I believed in, has been teased so thoroughly.

　I raised my head and let the rain wash over my face. I suddenly wanted to laugh, and I really laughed out loud, but the tears flowed down my cheeks again, blending with the rain. My brain is chaotic like the surface of the sea in a storm, and the high tide hits my ankles. An absurd idea rises from the bottom of my heart, dragging me into the bottom of the sea like a vortex—— Is the head a completely different new world like the one in Truman’s world? Am I living in a fake studio?

　Is it possible that as long as I swim to the other side of the sea like Truman and tear through the haze that was forged by a layer of curtain, I can completely escape from this nightmare?

　By coincidence, I stepped into the crotch-deep water with my legs open, and moved step by step into the icy cold sea.

　The sea water soaked through my clothes, and slowly submerged my waist and abdomen as I went deeper. At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded in the depths of my mind: Desharow… come back… come back… come to me… that is

　Ah Gareth’s call, my body froze as if it had suddenly froze. I didn’t believe that he could control my subconscious mind, so I desperately resisted with my self-consciousness, and simply plunged into the sea water, the salty sea water In an instant, a brain rushed into my nasal cavity.

　Ha, it’s not bad to die like this… Maybe it’s just a nightmare…

　I was thinking in confusion, but after only persisting in the water for a few seconds, my strong desire to survive made me raise my head instinctively, violently coughing out the seawater that choked into my mouth. I realized that I didn’t want to die at all, or that I wasn’t suicidal at all. At this moment, I heard a few footsteps wading in the water behind me, and when I turned around, I saw a familiar figure plunged into the water quickly, swam up to me with a thump, stretched out his hand and dragged me out In the water, I staggered a bit, and my arm was tightly grasped by the person who came.

　I coughed violently, and I knelt down on the beach, holding my neck and breathing heavily, and Rhine’s deafening roar came from above my head: “Are you crazy, do you want to commit suicide Desaro!!” I shook

　desperately Coughing and panting, the back was pulled tightly, and the whole person was pressed into his arms by Rhine. I subconsciously pushed him, and the whole person fell down on the beach with a hoarse throat: “I don’t want to die…I don’t want to die, I just want to escape from here, I’m so dizzy.”

　Standing there, Rhine suddenly fell silent, without saying a word.

　I suddenly realized that maybe Rhine had also seen what happened in the laboratory, and immediately subconsciously curled up my knees, buried my head deeply on my knees, and covered my face with my elbows. How much I wish I could become a hermit crab at this moment, hiding in a hard shell, without facing anyone or anything, as long as I close myself, everything can be regarded as never happened.

　But at this moment, I can only curl up in my arms, let the wind and rain break, and I don’t even have a chance to be alone.

　”I warned you, Desaro.” Rhine’s voice suppressed remorse and unwillingness, “At that time, maybe you can…” ”

　What’s the use of it!” I felt like I was stabbed hard by a needle, Suddenly stood up and grabbed his collar, “How could I have time at that time, yes, I was so stupid, so stupid that I didn’t realize that this was a conspiracy! Rhine, this voyage is not for my graduation research project at all, is it? ?Everything…everything was premeditated, when you chose me out of dozens of students who chose you as your tutor, you planned it out, right? Why, why did you involve me in this conspiracy? , are you using me as bait to catch mermaids?! Disgusting liar, scum of academia!”

　”No, no!” Rhine suddenly became excited, with bulging veins on his forehead, he grabbed my wrist, “I really want you to participate in the government’s mermaid research project, it’s because of your outstanding grades and my selfishness , I don’t know why Shakaral suddenly made such a plan to take you…”

　He opened his eyes with tears in his eyes, as if thinking of something through me, his pupils shrank like needlepoints due to extreme emotions ,Shortness of breath. I know he must have recalled the scene of Agares’s violation of me, and I couldn’t help but feel extremely embarrassed. I closed my eyes, stepped back weakly, and murmured nonsense: “Line, Rhine, you If there is even a little bit of guilt, help me get out of here, I want to go back to Moscow, I’m homesick…”

　Rhine grabbed my front, making my fallen body hang in the air, his bloodshot eyes Looking at my face with pity, he grabbed my waist and pressed me into his arms: “Desaro, forgive me…things have developed like this, there is no way out…but I swear never I won’t let that beast hurt you again…”

　”I will never go back!” I broke free from Rhine’s arm with a burst of savage strength, but after running for two steps, my waist suddenly tightened , The whole person was carried by Rhine on his shoulders, no matter how much I kicked and kicked him, he would not let go, and carried me all the way to the high platform where the institute moored the boat.

　There was a noisy voice beside me, so I couldn’t help but shut my mouth, not daring to shout again to avoid embarrassing myself, “Rhein, Rhein, put me down!”

　He carried me to the high platform and walked quickly to the high platform without hearing a word. Struggling to raise his head, he saw a small three-story scientific research ship parked on the nearby sea. The deck was built on a pier not far away. Three or five strong sailors were carrying a large cylindrical object. It was transported to the boat, and it was covered with a layer of metal shark-proof net. I recognized that it was the water tank containing Agares. Behind them were five or six armed men with guns, and the whole formation was as heavily guarded as a police escort transporting money.

　”Where is this search ship going? Fuck, answer me!”

　I slammed my elbow on Rhine’s back, and he grunted, but his arms tightened even more, and he carried me straight up and followed that Several armed men brushed past Agares’ water tank.

　In an instant, I caught a glimpse of a pair of dark and gloomy eyes through the gaps in the mottled iron net, and my heart trembled suddenly, and I heard a muffled bang against the glass, and the water tank suddenly shook violently, and the sailors almost staggered to and fro. Unable to keep his feet steady, the water tank was about to roll to the ground. A few people behind shouted and rushed forward to hold it, and Rhine was so shocked that he loosened his arms, and I was able to free up my body and push him away.

　The bottom of the water tank touched the deck heavily. Fortunately, the metal shell was intact, and several people stopped it to stabilize its center of gravity. Then, Agares’ pale face slowly floated from behind the only window on the shark prevention cage. stand up.

　One of his webbed claws was pressed tightly against the glass, his head was slightly lowered, and he squinted his eyes to patrol Rhine and me. There was a deep shadow under his eyelids, and the mottled water reflected from below, making his expression even more gloomy. terrible.

　I can’t be sure what’s going on in this deep-sea creature’s mind, but I’m very sure that he got angry, and he was so angry that his face was full of murderous intent and hostility, as if something that belonged to him was taken by someone else same.

　”Huh, this beast is actually jealous!” Rhine let out a disdainful cold snort from his nose, raised his middle finger at Agares, and at the same time hugged me in his arms, ignoring anyone beside.

　I was shocked, subconsciously pressed my elbow against Rhine’s chest, but he held me tightly, I couldn’t stop looking at the glass of the water tank, and I felt an extremely ominous premonition in my heart. Behind the glass, Agares’ face changed completely. He grinned and revealed his white canine teeth. He curled up his fist and aimed at the glass. There was a terrible loud noise like an explosion, and everyone agreed at that moment. He screamed in shock, because a gap was opened in the extremely strong tempered glass, and Agares’ arm burst out from the wall, and the blue blood on his hand was the same as the water gushing out of the gap. dripped onto the deck.

　”My Desharow…my Desharow…let him go…”

　A deep and hoarse hiss escaped from the opening, he stared at Rhine’s arms around me, and slowly retracted his arms in a demonstrative manner. The two fists smashed the glass inside the window into pieces, and water gushed out from inside.

　Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, among them a few sailors who knew me all cast strange glances at me, I couldn’t help my footsteps softened, I stepped back a few steps and hit the wall, leaning on the wall as if my body was out of balance, and panicked. Said, “Don’t look at me, he’s not calling me by my name! Rhine, you ignorant fool, don’t provoke it, you don’t know the power of this beast! He will come out!” Several armed

　men Hearing this, Qi Qi stepped forward and aimed at Agares in the water tank, but no one dared to approach the window. They were obviously very afraid of him, as if he was as terrifying as the Tyrannosaurus Rex in Jurassic Park .

　And it was true when he killed.

　”Are you the keeper of this mermaid?” An armed man asked nervously, “It looks like it is very dependent on you, I think we need your help, it is too difficult to control, we have a few unlucky ones The guy was ripped open by it!”

　”Shit! I’m not…don’t ask me for help!” I cursed angrily, my forehead was dripping with sweat, and I was grasping my trouser legs helplessly, but at this moment I smelled the water tank The damp and thick scent of Gareth’s body was permeating the air. I seemed to see the phantom of Agares coming towards me, and I was so frightened that I fled into the cabin in a panic, and closed the door tightly, shutting out Rhine who was chasing me.

　”Mr. Desaro! Mr. Desaro! We need your assistance!”

　”Desaro, let me in!”

　The door was slammed violently behind me, Rhine and the shouts of the armed personnel intertwined, I I leaned my back against the door and defended the door, and my irritability, anxiety, shame and embarrassment all rushed to my brain, making my eyes go black for a moment, and I didn’t even say “Get out of here” for the last time, and the whole person suddenly fell on the ground. on the floor in front of you.

　After losing consciousness for a short time, I woke up again in a daze.

　The vast sea surface outside the window was moving, and the sea surface was cut into long tracks by the hull of the ship, and finally disappeared in the undulating waves.

　Where is this ship… going?

　I asked secretly, feeling that my brain was very heavy and hot, and I didn’t even have the strength to feel pain and anger. I seemed to have a fever.

　Wherever you go, Desaro, you are destined to have no way back.

　Thinking of this, I fell down on the bed in desperation, letting my brain burn into a daze, and I was unconscious.
