Desharow Mermaid - Chap 94

After Chapter 94 took me to the prisoner-of-war concentration camp, Yukimura did not leave immediately, but took me to a cell alone. This was almost what I expected, because he seemed to have something to ask me , Due to Shinichi’s relationship, it is inconvenient to ask questions. After prevaricating the soldiers who followed him with the excuse of interrogating me alone, he closed the cell door and lit an oil lamp with a match.

　The lighted square inch candle illuminated Xue Cun’s delicate face and illuminated his pupils thoroughly. He looked out of the window warily and then at me, as if he was thinking about how to speak.

　I didn’t rush to ask him, because I knew that this would push Xuecun back to Shinichi’s camp, so I could only wait, wait until he lost his temper, and bet, bet, how much he cares about Asura. I gathered my coat, buttoned it up slowly, and sat down on an iron chair next to me. Xue Cun seemed a little nervous, as if it wasn’t me who was going to be interrogated, but him. The upside-down stance strikes me as kind of hilarious. When I looked at Xuecun through the firelight, I couldn’t help but feel that the person with such eyes doesn’t belong here at all. He is a simple Japanese boy who dare not disobey his father’s orders and is somewhat indecisive. He shouldn’t be dragged into such a In a dirty and cruel battlefield and conspiracy. But fortunately, he is not a stubborn person.

　”Mr. Yukimura?” I tentatively broke the awkward silence.

　He said “Hi” as if waking up from a dream, and sat down beside me with the oil lamp, “What should I call you?” ”

　Desaro Wallace.”

　”Okay, Desarau Mr. Luo.” Xuecun glanced at me, then turned his eyes to the oil lamp, and said slowly, “I know, you are the mermaid with silver tail. How did you know my name? How did you become a human? I always feel like I’ve seen you somewhere.”

　”We did. Before you… died.” I took a deep breath, knowing that I had to use the easiest Japanese explanation to get to the point. I asked sincerely, “Mr. Yukimura, do you Japanese believe in fatalism and reincarnation?”

　Maybe my words may sound unacceptable for a while, but I just have a kind of intuition, I think Xuecun can try to understand, otherwise he would not have brought me here.

　”Dead?” Yukimura repeated the word. Sure enough, I saw that he didn’t show any disbelief. He turned his head and lowered his eyelids thoughtfully, “Yes, we believe. I always have a dream, dreaming that I become a mermaid, swimming alone in the sea…Besides, my side There is another mermaid, but I have been unable to see his appearance clearly. But on the night when my father sent me alone…to trap those mermaids, I saw a mermaid with a purple tail, I know, follow in my dream That shadow of mine is him.” His low voice sounded like he was talking in a dream, his eyes shone slightly in the flickering fire, his face was flushed, and his eyelashes fluttered like butterfly wings due to some ups and downs of emotions trembling.

　I could see that Yukimura was both confused and moved by this almost predestined encounter, not to mention the inherent seductiveness of creatures like mermaids. But when I think of their tragic ending in the original time and space, my heart can’t help but sink.

　”But at the same time, I had an ominous feeling. I had a nightmare that night. In the dream, there were raging fires, many dead people, and blood everywhere… It was like a scene of purgatory. I couldn’t remember exactly what happened in the dream. But the impact it gave me was too real, and I was very scared.” After Xuecun said this, he turned his eyes to my face, raised his eyelids firmly, and asked softly: “When I saw you again just now , I think you can answer my dream. Isn’t that right, Mr. Desaro?”

　I was silent for a few seconds, and after sorting out my thoughts, I whispered: “I don’t know if you will fully believe what I said. The dreams you have are all about your future in another time and space. Of course, you can understand it as the fate of your previous life. If you don’t try to make some changes, the terrible scene in your dream will repeat itself again, and you Will fall into your nightmare, Asura and you will be very miserable. I saw your end with my own eyes.”

　”Asura? You actually know the name I gave him?” Xuecun’s eyes widened in surprise, but then his expression became serious, and I knew he had completely believed my words. He stood up, paced a few anxious steps in the cell, rubbing the corners of his kimono with his hands, his voice trembling slightly: “Then what should I do to prevent this from developing into what I saw in my nightmare?” “Resist

　you Father, let go of those captured mermaids, and leave here with Asura.” I walked up to him, pressed his shoulder, and said word by word.

　Xuecun’s expression changed in an instant, as if my words had touched his biggest taboo, he suddenly pulled out the samurai sword at his side, and with a flash of cold light, the blade was already on my neck, and the warm and cold light was on his face He jumped up and down alternately, making his expression extremely complicated: “Mr. Desaro, do you know what you are talking about! You let me rebel against my father and betray my family?” “Yes, Mr. Yukimura.

　” I calmly uttered a few words, stared into his eyes, and slowly held the cold blade of the samurai sword with my hand, “I don’t believe in fatalism, I believe that fate can be reversed by myself, when you try to get out of that In chess, a dead game may turn into a live game. I don’t know how important the family mission is to you, but Mr. Yukimura, I must tell you that letting go of the mermaid is not only for you and Asura, it can also save your family. , even if they can’t understand it now. This is your choice, I have no right to interfere, please make your decision.”

　He raised his brows, glanced at my hand holding the blade, and I immediately let go of it (I I don’t want to lose a few fingers), the knife was inserted back into the scabbard by him, and he hurried out of the door as if returning the sword to the scabbard, Kuang Dang closed the iron gate, but at this moment , a shiny metal object fell to the ground from the closed gap, it looked like an unintentional mistake.

　But I know it’s just a look. I walked behind the door, squatted down, picked up the key, and smiled unconsciously. After a while, I heard a series of footsteps returning. I guess it was Snow Village. He seemed to hesitate at the door for a moment, and finally there was a knock on the door: “If you hear the sound of artillery fire at night, Mr. Desaro, I will meet you in the jungle near the concentration camp and tell me your location with the sound of birdsong. ”

　Understood.” I nodded.

　After Xuecun left, I found some torture tools for interrogation in the cell, some of which could be used as self-defense weapons. After picking out a good hammer, I sat down by the door, closed the door and meditated quietly. Waiting for the right time to come. The nostrils are filled with the cold bloody smell of the prison cell. This smell seems to be able to freeze even my blood, making me have a heart of stone. I knew that I had to be prepared to kill, and if there was a blocker on the way to see Xuecun, I would definitely do it.

　I weighed the hammer in my hand, tapped the ground unconsciously, and tightened my jaw.

　I don’t know how long it took, the sky outside the window was completely dark, and the movement outside became noisy. The footsteps of troops passing by from near to far, I finally heard the first string of gunfire exploding in the distance, and the sky was on fire. There was a fiery red cloud, the screams of several planes and the sound of bullets raining one after another, it was deafening, the whole cell I was in was shaking instantly, and the dust was constantly scattered around me.

　it’s time. I lay down in front of the window and looked out, and sure enough, I found that there were no soldiers guarding here, so I immediately turned to the door and opened the iron gate with the key. Opposite me is the concentration camp where prisoners of war are held, and on the left is the dark dense forest. I leaned on my body, observed the movement around me vigilantly, and ran all the way, rushing into the dense forest. The towering trees became the best shelter, covering me in a safe darkness. I opened my eyes wide and used my good night vision to search for the figure of Xuecun, and imitated the sound of birds as he instructed. “Cuckoo, Cuckoo!” I got the answer immediately. I chased after the sound, maybe it was the darkness that made me move extremely fast, and when I rushed in front of Xuecun, he was shocked by the suddenness.

　”Mr. Desaro, you can run as fast as a mermaid!” ”

　Of course.”

　He took back the samurai sword that had just been unsheathed, looked around warily, turned around and led me to Go deep in the woods. Against the backdrop of the constant sound of cannon fodder in the distance, the dense forest we were in seemed extraordinarily quiet, and there was an indescribably oppressive atmosphere under the shadows. Neither Xuecun nor I spoke to each other, we just cut through thorns and thorns in silence, and the bushes made some frightening rustling noises as we moved forward.

　After walking for a while in the dense forest, the outline of a long gray building gradually appeared in front of me. It looked like the end of the air-raid shelter tunnel I had entered. There was a locked door not far from us. But Xuecun didn’t take me close to it, but squatted down, groping for something in the grass. I immediately found a metal secret door hidden under the dust under his feet. This is obviously a secret passage leading to the air-raid shelter, and it can also be the best exit for those mermaids to escape.

　I followed Xuecun down the ladder leading to the bottom in the secret door, and soon we arrived at the inside of the air-raid shelter. There was a row of pale guide lights in the long and narrow tunnel, and the light reflected on the metal cave wall. With its gloomy luster, I couldn’t help but feel suffocated, as if following Xuecun into the cavity of a giant human-eating beast. When I arrived at the first corner, far away, with the wind blowing the smell of metal, I seemed to hear a faint scream. I couldn’t help but shudder.

　At the same time, Xuecun also stopped, and we looked at each other at the same time, his face was pale, and he looked deep into the tunnel, his eyes revealed an unconcealable fear, his voice was like breathing in winter As if exuding a cool feeling: “My father is a very cruel and cold-blooded person. He always conducts some inhumane experiments, so you’d better be mentally prepared.” I nodded, swallowed dryly, and my heart

　suddenly A surge of panic surged, and he couldn’t stop worrying about Agares’ safety. Although he was pretending to be paralyzed before, who knows what will happen to him if he falls into the hands of these cruel Japanese?

　At this moment, a series of footsteps came from the corner of the tunnel. Xuecun dragged me to squat down, grabbed a piece of glass that had been prepared in the sleeve, and saw at a glance that it was two experimenters walking over talking. . The moment they approached, Yukimura and I shot almost at the same time, knocking them to the ground before they had time to make any sound, like a pair of well-trained partners.

　As the tunnel got deeper and deeper, the screams mixed with the wind became clearer and clearer. I knew that Shinichi’s laboratory was nearby, so I held my breath involuntarily. We turned another corner, and a door isolated by a translucent plastic curtain appeared in front of us. It was stained with a lot of mottled dark liquid, and we could vaguely see the outline of the operating table inside.

　We all slowed down at the same time, I squeezed the hammer tightly in my hand, and Yukimura drew out his katana, and carefully opened the plastic isolation curtain, a strong smell of blood immediately rushed towards our face like a beast, In an instant, my eyes were about to crack, and I was so frightened by the shocking and terrifying scene in front of me that I stood there on the spot, my stomach was overwhelmed, and Xuecun also gasped and retched.

　——On several operating tables placed side by side, the corpses of bloody mermaids were placed neatly. There were both females and males. Wings fly away, and the two pieces of lifted skin hang loosely on both sides of the operating table, dripping down with dark purple viscous blood. Beside the operating table was a small pool. In the blood-red water, there were more than a dozen pale human bodies soaked here and there, and there were handfuls of mold-like hair floating on the water. There was a pungent and strong smell of formalin in the air, cutting the nerves of Xuecun and me like a knife blade, making us go crazy at any time under such a scene.

　Yet we had to force ourselves to remain calm. I covered my mouth, resisting the urge to spit it out, and Xuecun walked through these operating tables one by one. After confirming that the two guys we were looking for were not among them, we quickly bypassed this hell on earth and walked into this Inside the laboratory, after Xuecun opened a password-controlled iron door, a more spacious artificial cave appeared in our sight. Nearly a hundred closed glass cabins contained surviving mermaids in the grooves on the cave wall. . There are only a dozen or so left here, and the eyes of fear, sorrow, or hatred emanating from their bright pupils all gathered on Xuecun and me in an instant, as if they wanted to tear us into pieces. I couldn’t help worrying that after these young species were released, they would attack us viciously first. But fortunately, Agares can protect me in time.

　As I thought about it, my eyes wandered among those mermaids, but I couldn’t find Agares, and my heart tightened suddenly: “Mr. Xuecun, where is the black-scaled mermaid that was caught with me?!”

　” He escaped. Just when my father was going to experiment on him, no one expected that he was not anesthetized. He attacked the soldiers in the air-raid shelter and took away the first batch of mermaids who were about to be experimented on. That’s why there are only a dozen left here. Look, Asura is there.” I was

　taken aback, he raised his finger and pointed to a closed cabin on the far left, and then I noticed a merman lying on his side in the cabin , seems to be injured and closed his eyes, that is Asura.

　Xuecun looked at him, his lips turned white, “I… dare not face Asura. He once saved my life, but I followed my father’s order and set a trap to trick him here, to be imprisoned, Abuse. Asura must hate me, I am a sinister and cunning human being.” After speaking, he immediately walked to a row of pulls that seemed to open these gates, looked at me hesitantly, but was the first to open it. Asura’s Gate.

　At this moment, a series of messy footsteps came from far and near outside the wall. My heart screamed, Yukimura grabbed my arm and glanced at Asura’s direction, “I’m going out to block my father and the others, Mr. Desaro, please save Asura from here, go around the air-raid shelter after leaving the place Walking into the dense forest, through the forest is the seaside. If I can find a way to get out…”

　He gritted his teeth before he finished speaking, and I nodded knowingly, meaning to reassure him. He immediately let go of my hand, turned and walked out without looking back.

　The moment I opened all the hatches, the imprisoned seedlings rushed out like a swarm, but they all miraculously surrounded me. I think it is undoubtedly because I exude the spirit of their leader. smell, but I saw that Asura had just climbed down from the bulkhead with difficulty. He had several horrific gunshot wounds on his shoulders, his skin was torn apart, which obviously hindered his movement greatly, but he still followed quickly On my lead.

　Xuecun’s blocking seemed to be very effective. We escaped from this devilish tunnel through the secret door we came in unimpeded all the way. At this moment, the fighting sound outside became more intense, and the flames on the surrounding sea even passed through the dense forest and fell on us who were shuttled in the shadows, and the young species fled like lightning like a group of released boa constrictors. , and quickly left me, the interim leader, far behind, and only then did I hear a series of voices that seemed to be following behind me.

　I turned around and found that it was Ashura. He was gliding extremely slowly, and the gunshot wound on his shoulder restricted his balance, so that he could only stumble forward like an old man, being caught by stones and roots in the grass from time to time Stumbling, almost fell down.

　I hurried to his side and helped him to a big tree to lean against.

　In the night, his face was pale and bluish, but his naturally fierce appearance did not reveal any weakness in him. For a while, I couldn’t help but feel that he was inexplicably similar to Agares, but I couldn’t tell where it was. Perhaps it was because they were born with a dangerous evil spirit. It’s just that he doesn’t have an evil face like the damned Agares, who at first glance makes people think that he is a demon from the abyss.

　”Can you hold on? We have to hurry up, Yukimura…he is waiting for you.” I patted Ashura on the shoulder, and put my hand on his heart. Fortunately, his heartbeat was very strong, and the gunshot wound did not His life was not endangered. Oh thank goodness.

　”Snow Village…” Asura read this name, his eyes lit up, he supported the tree trunk as if he wanted to stand up his tail again, but just as he raised his arms, his shoulders tilted, I quickly held him up and made him regain his Leaning back against the tree trunk, he carefully examined the gunshot wounds. Only then did I realize that those bullets were stuck in his flesh and had to be taken out for his self-healing ability to work. At this time, the only one who could help Asura was me.

　”I will help you take out your wound and your things.” I looked up at Asura, he sniffed my scent, as if reconfirming my relationship with Agares, closed his eyelids, nodded. I buried him on his shoulder without hesitation, and Asura’s body froze immediately, I thought it must be very painful. I absorbed the sunken bullets vigorously, and gently squeezed his swollen flesh with my hands. A few broken shrapnel were sucked into my mouth without much effort, but I felt that there was a big one underneath.

　I spit out the metal-tasting blood and shrapnel in my mouth, wiped my mouth, and leaned down again. Asura tried his best to support the fish’s tail and raised his shoulders so that I could continue to handle it for him. In order to maintain balance, he moved his webbed claws Leaning lightly on my back, it might look like he’s embracing me, but I don’t have time for that.

　Just when I was about to finish my work, there was a sound of something rushing through the woods beside me. Before I could even see what caused it, a black shadow suddenly ran from behind the big tree behind Ashura come out. A deep roar sounded in the ear, and the pale webbed claws stuck on Asura’s neck like a poisonous snake that suddenly attacked!

　I sat down on the ground, and then I realized that it was Agares. He obviously came back from the sea to find me.

　He stared at Asura with a hostile face, as if he was going to strangle him to death, his joints rattled, and the veins jumped out from the back of his claws, Asura could only open his mouth wide to breathe, and the tail of the fish frantically lay on the grass flinging. I have no doubt that Agares really killed Asura, “Hey, Agares, you misunderstood! I just healed his wound!” I

　hurriedly got up and shouted, wrapping my arms around Agar Reis’s thick and big tail dragged him backward desperately. Damn it, God knows how possessive he is of me! This sucks!

　My blocking didn’t help at all, Agares wrapped his fish tail tightly around my body without paying attention, dragged me behind him, and forced me to stay away from Asura. I know that if I don’t try my best to stop him, Ashura will die at his hands today. With quick eyesight and hands, I held onto a tree trunk, rolled my body, barely broke free from the strong shackles, jumped over his fishtail and threw myself in front of the big tree. At that moment, I swore my movements were better than that of a field special soldier. Well trained. Unfortunately, in my panic, I exerted too much force, and my head slammed into the tree trunk. In an instant, there were stars in my eyes, and I almost fainted. But fortunately, Agares’ movements stopped suddenly because of this, and his attention was immediately focused on me.

　He finally let go of the webbed claw that was holding Asura, bent his fish tail, and bent towards me, pulling me up in a panic, squinting his eyes to check my broken forehead, his gloomy pupils were full of love and affection. worry. At that moment, I suddenly realized that the original Agares was indeed gradually waking up. But I said something to confirm my guess, and Agares’ lips covered my forehead, and he licked my red and swollen wound with his tongue, and then licked it along the bridge of my nose, grinning slightly, punishing me. Meanly biting my lips and tongue with his fangs, holding the back of my neck with his naked webbed claws, he glanced back at Asura in warning.

　I was obedient and nervous, not daring to move, my eyes accidentally met Asura’s still-shocked eyes, I thought to myself, God, it’s really scary for this violent guy to be jealous.
