He and Dr. Camila looked at each other for two seconds. Dr. Olay didn’t want to waste time, so he agreed impatiently, “Fine, fine, I’ll give it to you.”

He fumbled in his pocket and only came up with two hundred yuan. Then he asked the three people beside him, and barely managed to scrape together one thousand, “Here’s one thousand yuan, you take it first, it’s a deposit. When you complete this task, I’ll give you the rest.”

“You obviously couldn’t come up with the money but still put on airs and call it a deposit to save face,” Bai Lixin snatched the money and complained in a low voice, “A bunch of broke researchers doing research here. They might as well be drinking northwest wind. I don’t even know if I’ll get my one hundred million. Hey, now am really worried.”

Dr. Olay: “…”

Everyone: “…”

How to offend all the researchers present with one sentence?

Bai Lixin achieved it.

As Bai Lixin walked in, he overheard a conversation behind him.

Dr. Olay: “Is everything you said true?”

Dr. Camila: “Of course, it’s a pity we didn’t bring any green-skinned monsters back. But it’s okay, I completed the positioning when I left. We’ll go again tonight, and also recover the other submarine.”

Dr. Olay: “Good.”

Bai Lixin: “…”

Are they planning to explore that passage again tonight?

Yesterday, the appearance of the green-skinned monsters, coupled with them missing the ocean backflow, prevented them from entering the other side.

But their luck won’t be bad forever. Going a couple more times might reveal the other side—the merfolk’s place of faith.

Clearly, they are deeply committed to this place of faith.

He had observed Dr. Camila earlier. Last night, he seemed strange, not like a normal person, but half a day later, he was back to normal.

This research facility was definitely not just developing ornamental merfolk, they must be hiding other secrets that he hasn’t uncovered yet.

What exactly is in the sewer where the tracker suddenly disappeared?

Where is the hidden operating table?

Why do scientists transform at night?

He’ll unravel each answer one by one.

After entering Lab 1, Bai Lixin closed the laboratory door, cutting off the outside sounds.

Dr. Camila glanced toward the closing door curiously.

Dr. Olay: “What’s wrong?”

Dr. Camila: “Oh, nothing. I just feel this person’s scent is a bit familiar, like I’ve smelled it somewhere.”

Dr. Olay: “Of course, it’s familiar. We’re all in the same lab. He’s just a janitor, he goes to every lab. He’s bound to pick up some scent.”

Dr. Camila: “Right, but where did you find this fool? For such an important task, he only asks for five thousand. What an idiot.”

Dr. Olay: “This kind of person is easy to control. He thinks highly of himself but is nothing. He’ll do anything for a small favor. Trust me, he can even sell his soul for money. Hahaha.”

Dr. Camila laughed along.

It seems he was just overthinking.

How could such a clumsy support staff hide in the submarine without being noticed?

Once inside the laboratory, Bai Lixin directly took off his shoes and socks and walked straight to the pool.

He tapped the edge of the plate, producing a crisp “bang bang” sound, “It’s mealtime.”

The next second, the merman, who had resisted all of Dr. Olay’s coaxing, instantly popped his head out.

His long hair enveloped in water fell smoothly to both sides, then floated lightly on the water’s surface. The shining golden hair spread out, and from a distance, resembled a sunflower blooming in the water from a distance.

Flicking his tail twice, the merman arrived in front of Bai Lixin effortlessly. He opened his mouth and produced a sounds, “Dijia—”

With an obedient appearance, the merman looked like a large golden retriever, repeating what Bai Lixin taught him yesterday. As if telling him, “Look how well I’ve practiced, praise me!”

Bai Lixin’s heart twitched. When he reacted, his hand was already on the merman’s head.

His hand became wet from the water in the hair. The hair felt silky smooth, making Bai Lixin a bit reluctant to let go.

Instinctively, he inserted all five fingers into Dijia’s golden hair, grabbing a handful to sniff at his nose.

The hair carried a faint scent, a mixture of the ocean and water plants, with a touch of vanilla.

After sniffing for a moment, Bai Lixin released Dijia’s hair. As soon as he raised his head, he saw the other party scrutinizing him, his eyes gleaming with eagerness.

Uh.

Did he unintentionally provide another negative demonstration just now?

Smart Bai Lixin decided to swiftly direct the attention to something else. He slapped the pool wall, causing water to splash all over.

The young man with stunning features pointed at the plate of fish and raised an eyebrow, “What did I tell you yesterday? I asked you to eat every meal on time, and eat to your fill. Why are you disobedient?!”
