CH 44

TL: Hua

The next morning, Lin Feng stepped into Clarice’s bedroom on time. Looking at the two people who had a more harmonious atmosphere than when he came last time, he raised his eyebrows. The instrument signaled Ji Mingjiang to jump in.

The latest body data was displayed on the screen, item by item. Lin Feng recalled the last test result from the light brain and looked at Clarice with some surprise after comparing them.

“This little guy is called Ji Mingjiang, right?” Looking at the mermaid emerging from the inspection apparatus, Lin Feng showed a gentle smile.

After getting the other man’s confirmation, he continued, “He is well taken care of by you; as for the tail length you asked me to check—”

Having said that, seeing Ji Mingjiang’s eyes suddenly brighten up and look at him, Lin Feng paused for a moment, then blinked at this particularly adorable one. “Congratulations, the length of the tail is 15 cm longer than last time. ”

To put it bluntly, this time Lin Feng came to measure his height. After confirming that Ji Mingjiang had no other health problems, he quickly packed up his things and left.

Seeing the figure in a white coat leaving the room leisurely, Ji Mingjiang flicked his tail briskly in the water.

“Ha! I said my tail must have grown longer.”

At this point, he abruptly tapped the calf of His Majesty, who was about to leave for his office, and asked while looking into those helpless eyes, “What is your height, Clarice?”

Unexpectedly, he suddenly asked this question. Leiden had done a physical examination at the beginning of the year, and after some thought, he said with some uncertainty, “It should be 187cm; what’s wrong?”

“It’s nothing.” Ji Mingjiang shook his head, and after Clarice left, he cautiously swam to the opposite side of the pool and drew the curtains with a snap.

Then the tail trembled violently a few times, and the human legs that hadn’t been released for a few days were looming under the waves.

Taking a look at his seemingly unchanged legs, Ji Mingjiang stood up from the water and turned to the mirror specially prepared for him by the pool.

The original water surface was level with Ji Mingjiang’s chest, but when he stood up, it reached his waist, and the transparent water droplets rolled down the smooth lines of his chest and abdomen. Ji Mingjiang clicked his tongue slightly and squeezed the thin layer of muscle on his arm with some dissatisfaction.

Due to the change from 26 years old to 16 years old, his facial contours that had matured in the previous life are still a little soft now, and the muscles that were developed in the deep sea for half a month before have also reduced a lot.

But after the glasses that he had been wearing in his previous life disappeared, the corners of his eyes that were originally upturned showed a bit of sharpness, which nicely neutralized his warm aura.

And the height that Ji Mingjiang is most concerned about now really did not disappoint him.

The depth of the pool that Clarice prepared for him is about 1.2 meters, and the water surface is now a little higher than his waist…

Ji Mingjiang roughly did the math and found out his height is almost 1.8 meters now!

Moreover, his bones age is only 16 years old now. It is estimated that with the increase in tail length, his height may increase a bit.

Ji Mingjiang, who was only 178 in his last life due to a lack of exercise and poor physical fitness, suddenly felt much better when he thought of this.

After he surpasses Clarice’s height, he must give that guy a princess carry and then go around in front of the rest of the palace!

At this time, his light brain suddenly rang. Hearing the familiar alarm sound, Ji Mingjiang’s legs instantly changed back to a fishtail. After opening the curtains to let the bright sunlight in, he clicked on the light brain that was ringing non-stop.

It was the alarm clock that was set last night to remind him to turn on the live broadcast today. For today’s live broadcast, he also declined Lin Nan’s invitation to unilaterally beat up his roommate.

The account has already been registered using the identity information processed by Clarice. After all, as a mermaid, Ji Mingjiang only has files in the mermaid foster center, and other citizen ID codes have no relation to his current identity.

Another camera connected to the light brain was also sent by Rowlett this morning. The chief steward only knew that he was going to broadcast live. Although he wasn’t clear why, he still cheered him on with a smile.

Taking a deep breath, Ji Mingjiang, who had never put himself in front of the camera before, clicked the button to start the live broadcast a little nervously.

Although it is Monday morning, humanity has always had an indelible nature, and interstellar people are no exception1This sentence feels incomplete. I think it’s the author’s typo..

In addition, the primary beastmen live broadcast section with the resonance mode has always had a lot of traffic, and the mermaid version, which has a separated column, is even more outstanding.

As soon as Ji Mingjiang turned on the live broadcast, he saw that the data displayed on the light brain was rising crazily, and the screen constantly flashed some pop-ups with all kinds of special effects.

[New anchor? I’ve never seen them before! ]

[Where’s the mermaid? Where’s the mermaid? Show me the pretty fish!!]

[Has there been any rumor recently that any bigwig went to the foster center to match with a mermaid? I have no impression. ]

[I heard that a certain company president took a small mermaid home, but is it possible to have a live broadcast so soon?]

Against the background of the fact that the whole society has a strong love for mermaids, after a lively discussion on the barrage, a bunch of fireworks suddenly exploded on the light brain screen in front of Ji Mingjiang.

The screen cleared instantly.

The barrage asked politely, [Excuse me, is the little mermaid ready? There’s no need to rush if you’re not ready, but it would be nice to show some pictures.]

“…”

After being reminded by this barrage, Ji Mingjiang, who was in a hurry to do these things for the first time, realized that the pitch-black screen on the light brain was not normal.

—He forgot to turn on the camera for the live broadcast.

“I’m sorry—” Ji Mingjiang apologized and quickly turned on the camera that he had casually placed with the lens facing downward while also activating the follow mode.

The camera slowly wobbled and flew up from the ground.

In the shaking picture, the first thing that appeared on the screen was the chandelier in the center of Clarice’s bedroom, then the water surface sprinkled with golden sunlight, and finally the mermaid’s silvery white hair and clear jawline.

“Can you see it clearly?”

Ji Mingjiang swam backward for a certain distance, and the camera followed his figure flexibly as if it had restarted after a crash.

The dark blue tail shattered a pool of sunlight, and a few drops of water raised by the tail fin splashed in the direction of the camera but were deftly dodged by it.

…

As if shocked by the oncoming water droplets, the live broadcast room, which had been silent for a long time, was quickly filled with barrages.

[Help! Is this something I can see? Does such a beautiful fish really exist? ! ! ! ]

[Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, no one can stop me! I’m going to squat to death today in the pretty fish live room oooooooh]

[It’s a different style from the little mermaids in other live streaming rooms, but I really like it!]

[Not only does the fish look good, but the sound is also nice, awsl2awsl is the pinyin acronym for “Ah, I’m dead” (à wǒ sǐ le), which is generally used to describe the excitement when seeing cute things.! ]

[…]

[? ? ? ]

[Wait friends…]

After the barrage just floated by, the audience, which was busy praising the fish, gradually realized something was wrong.

A barrage drifted weakly past.

[Is it my hallucination just now? Why do I seem to hear a string of interstellar common language spoken from the mouth of the beautiful fish…]

The screen went blank for a few more seconds. Before anyone else could speak, Ji Mingjiang moved closer and said cheerfully, “You heard me right! Isn’t it much more convenient to communicate like this!”

The barrage became chaotic in an instant. A series of meaningless modal particles drifted for a while; a string of garbled codes that seemed to be typed by a person in an extremely trance state drifted for a while; and a sentence such as “F*ck, mermaids have evolved this far?!” “The teacher who taught me never said that the mermaid race can talk; mom, have I witnessed history!” also drifted by.

In the end, after expressing the shock in their hearts, all the remarks became almost the same.

——[Little fish is great!]

Seeing all kinds of boasting, Ji Mingjiang smiled, and the tips of his ears not covered by the ear fins were gradually stained with a thin layer of red.

In his previous life, apart from accepting the strict teachings arranged by his family, he also accepted the trusting but awe-inspiring eyes of his subordinates. In this life, although Carrie sometimes praised him, one person’s praise and a group of people’s praise are very different.

Not to mention that in order to maintain the image of a stable and reliable keeper, Carrie is very restrained.

Unlike the audience in his live broadcast room, they can blow all kinds of rainbow farts.

Seeing a series of barrages that praised him to the heavens and the earth, Ji Mingjiang’s fish tail twitched twice nervously on the water, trying to change the topic: “I haven’t watched the live broadcast of other mermaids, so I don’t know exactly what to do during the live broadcast; is there anything you want to watch?”

However, the barrage did not immediately answer his question but started a new wave of howling because of the shaking of his tail just now.

“…”

What’s going on here!

Fortunately, the understanding viewers quickly pulled back their sanity from the scene just now, and rescued Ji Mingjiang, who was almost curled up with the tip of his tail, from embarrassment in time.

[There’s no fixed program when we watch other little mermaids’ live broadcasts. Those little mermaids can’t speak Interstellar Common Language. Usually, their matches are by their side to answer some questions or interact with the little guys. ]

Due to too many words, the live broadcast room intelligently hung this barrage in the center of the screen for a while after detecting that the content had no bad guidance, and it only flashed past after five seconds.

Interact? But Clarice should still be in the study or go to the military headquarters now.

As if aware of Ji Mingjiang’s entangled mood and fearing that the beautiful and intelligent mermaid in front of them would feel embarrassed, a barrage floated over immediately.

[Of course, it’s okay if you don’t want to interact! It’s great to do nothing or just be there and chat with us! ]

Speaking of which…

Countless people who were loafing around or watching live broadcasts on their way to work or class all frowned and typed a line of words together in the input box of the barrage.

[So, what about your match? Isn’t he being a little too irresponsible? ? ? ]

The author has something to say:

Clarice, who didn’t even appear in the live broadcast room: Why does my back suddenly feel so heavy?
