Norman and An Jin looked at each other quietly. The atmosphere was quite friendly.
Ten minutes later, the levitating vehicle landed in front of a villa on the north side of the palace.
The two sides of the vehicle door rose like wings, then a metal plate extended from the door to connect to the ground, like a slide.
An Jin looked out the door. The silver-blue carpet on the ground was very beautiful.
Norman pushed the container to the door and let go.
The container slid down along the metal plate. In the blink of an eye, the container reached the ground and slid forward. It knocked on the pillar before stopping and the water in the container shook violently.
An Jin was taken aback. His whole body also shook along the water, causing dizziness and slight pain in the back of his head.
He quickly supported the metal wall with his hands. He stabilized his body and stared at the door of the vehicle.
Before staring at Norman, he first stared at the sci-fi-style levitating car.
It was a semi-spherical vehicle that was huge in size. It was black in color as a whole. There was a layer of silver-blue light reflecting on the surface, which was very eye-catching.
He looked up and there were two hemispherical celestial bodies glowing with silver-blue light in the night sky.
It really is not the earth here.
Norman pressed the button and the metal plate retracted into the levitating car. Then he jumped from the vehicle to the ground.
An Jin heard the sound and turned his gaze on Norman. He then looked at the vehicle's door that was more than one meter above the ground.
Fortunately, instead of pushing the container directly to the ground, the man used a slide.
He was so dizzy that his rising temper disappeared instantly.
Norman walked up to the container and pushed the container forward.
An Jin was aware of his purpose and turned to look forward.
It was a three-story villa with white and yellow as the main colors.
He didn't have the opportunity to take a closer look but he found that there were exquisite carvings and ornaments in many places, which looked very luxurious.
Norman lowered his eyes and saw the little mermaid's white and slender waist and the smooth-lined fishtail.
The living room area was large but the layout was very simple, with a sofa and a coffee table, all in dark colors.
"Master, welcome home." A humanoid, silver-skinned robot in a black suit walked to Norman's side. It bowed to welcome them and reported, "The mermaid room has been cleaned up."
Norman unbuttoned his cufflinks and walked aside. He moved away from the position of the container and ordered: "Send him over."
Robot: "Yes, master."
An Jin stared at the robot curiously. The robot moved very naturally. He observed carefully and found that there seemed to be a chip in the middle of the silver pupil of the robot.
He was pushed into a room that had three-quarters of its area covered with a pool. There were two pools, one small and one big. These pools were divided into two, separated by a tile wall in the middle.
The area of the pool, next to the door was much larger, almost ten times the size of the small pool.
The upper left corner of the large pool and the lower-left corner of the small pool were both built with slopes that were inclined to the bottom of the water with slightly convex horizontal bars on the slope.
An Jin was guessing the purpose of this design when the container was opened by the robot and the water inside immediately poured into the pool.
An Jin was washed into the pool again.
This time he calmed down after only a moment of panic. He floated to the surface, pulled the hair off his face, and looked towards the shore.
The robot did not respond to his gaze. It dragged the container out of the room and the door closed.
Only An Jin was left in the room. An Jin stared at the door for a while. The door was of the usual style that can be simply opened by pressing the door handle.
He looked away from the door and looked at the room.
On the right side of the room was a metal shelf cabinet, similar in the form of a bogu shelf, without anything placed on it.
Next to the cabinet was a square container. It was unknown what it was for.
The room was really simple. He finished looking at it and turned his gaze to the window.
The window was about two meters above the ground and it was very wide. He could only see the trunks and leaves outside the window, which were of all kinds of varieties he couldn't recognize.
He was watching that when there was a noise from the door.
He turned his head and saw the man walking in with a large tray.
Norman glanced at the little mermaid that was floating around the pool calmly. Not seeing any signs of activity, he was a little surprised.
This mermaid seems to be really good and quiet.
He walked to the pool and squatted down. He then put down the tray and looked at the little mermaid.
An Jin moved his gaze from Norman to the tray. There were two fishes inside. The fish had been processed and the flesh was white and powdery. It looked fresh.
But there were still some black spots in the meat.
An Jin blinked. Was this for him?
He remembered what happened this afternoon to the present. He couldn't help but have a reliable guess.
He was probably bought by the man in front of him! He bought him after bidding.
Many people had watched him in the afternoon, and eventually, he was taken away by this man.
The man is providing him with shelter and food, much like keeping a pet.
If he really has become a pet, then the person in front of him...
This man is his master!
An Jin stayed dazed for a while and soon became calm again.
At the end of the day, being a pet is better than worrying about being bitten by a zombie.
Although he is very guilty of doing nothing, eating and drinking other people's, he has no choice.
An Jin looked at his 'master'. This person was extremely serious and his expression was calm, completely different from what he had in mind when the people saw their pets.
An Jin couldn't help but guess that the man bought him, maybe not because he likes pets, but for some other reasons.
This is similar to the reason why people buy pets to reduce their loneliness.
An Jin sincerely hoped that his conjecture was correct. He hoped to be able to give something back instead of eating for nothing.
An Jin thought for a while and decided to be a good pet to please his new master.
He thought of how pitiful stray cats and dogs were........NO!!! He can't be abandoned.
At least till he understands this world and its language, he can't be abandoned!
Even if he seems to be quite valuable, there are many cats and dogs of the best breeds that have been abandoned.
Especially this man doesn't seem to be lacking money. He's afraid this dude won't hesitate in buying another pet and abandoning him.
Norman looked at the little mermaid for a long time. He lowered his head when he saw the little mermaid without any movement.
His whole body muscles relaxed and he lowered his head to reveal his fragile neck as if he had completely let go of his guard in front of the little mermaid.
In fact, he was speculating in his mind when the mermaid would attack him.
However, after waiting for a while, the mermaid still did not move.
There was hope in his heart. This mermaid was gentle and well-behaved and was not ready to attack him.
This mermaid is the kind of mermaid he wants.
He stretched out his hand and fiddled with two randomly placed fish on the plate, placing the two fishes side by side, neatly, like a line.
An Jin watched his behavior suspiciously and secretly guessed that the man might have obsessive-compulsive disorder.
Norman stared at the two dead fishes. The fishes were set and he had no reason to keep his head down.
His previous experience made it difficult for him to put down guard against the mermaid. He can't be relieved without testing.
According to the character of the general mermaids, this mermaid should have long ago grabbed the nape of his neck with its paws, but the little mermaid didn't move.
He has been probing for so long and he can't go on probing!
He looked up and met the clear blue eyes of the little mermaid. The little mermaid seemed to be taken aback and then smiled at him.
Norman was slightly startled. This was the first time he saw a mermaid smile........ it was really pretty.
Even if he hadn't completely let go of his guard, he couldn't help but feel good about the little mermaid in front of him.
He said: "Come and eat."
An Jin thought the man's deep voice was really nice.
He blinked. He didn't understand what the man was saying. After thinking about it, he tilted his head to show incomprehension.
The surprise in Norman's eyes flashed past. Did he misunderstand or is the mermaid consciously saying that he doesn't understand?
He gently lifted the tray with his fingers and then moved it away. The tray hit the ground with a soft noise, drawing the little mermaid's eyes to the tray, then he pointed to the fish: "Eat."
An Jin understood his gestures. The words that the doctor and this man said were very short, but they had the same pronunciation. He secretly guessed and memorized that it meant 'eat'.
He wagged his tail, swam to the edge of the pool, held his hands on the shore, and looked up at the man.
The man was still handsome up close and his masculinity was even more obvious. Because the aura of this man was too strong, An Jin's heart couldn't help but speed up.
Norman did not speak anymore but pointed at the fish again.
An Jin obediently bowed his head and raised his index finger to fillet fish skillfully. When he was about to put it in his mouth, he thought of his plan to please the 'master'. So, he turned his hand and handed the fillet to Norman.
Norman saw the mermaid's hand moving towards him. He acted faster than he himself had thought. He grabbed the mermaid's wrist and said in a deep voice, "Finally you are showing your true colors.....................................?"
He thought that the little mermaid finally wanted to attack him, but after catching it, he realized that something was wrong.
The softness in the mermaid's hands did not have the strength to attack.
"Hiss..." An Jin gasped in pain. His eyes widened and water appeared in his beautiful eyes.
Norman immediately let go. Seeing the little mermaid's wet eyes, he couldn't help but apologize.
But........... is this mermaid acting spoiled?
He had once seen a mermaid breaking its hand. That mermaid wasn't crying but was acting fierce.
An Jin glanced at his wrist. His fair wrist was slightly reddish. There was no wound and even the pain quickly dissipated.
The mermaid's body was much stronger than when he was a human being.
He blinked and the waters in his eyes disappeared. Recalling the scene just now, he guessed that this man might hate others approaching him.
He didn't give up. He thought for a moment and put the fillets on the clean space of the tray.
Then he took two more slices and placed them there. Thinking that this dude might have obsessive-compulsive disorder, the three fishes were neatly placed.
He raised his head to look at the man. He bent his eyes slightly, looking particularly pleasing. He pushed the tray: "Here you are."
His voice was very soft and it sounded very gentle.
Norman could not understand what the mermaid said, but he understood what the mermaid was doing. Hearing the soft voice of the mermaid, his apology turned into guilt.
The little mermaid didn't want to attack him but wanted to share food.
Even after he misunderstood the little mermaid and almost broke the little mermaid's hand, the little mermaid still shared the food with him.
The little mermaid's kindness was straightforward and sincere. So he could hardly refuse it for a while.
But it's only for a while.
As the Emperor of the Soo Star and concurrently serving as the Imperial Marshal, he must always remain sensible.
Uncooked fish is a disaster for the spirit sea.
He glanced at the expectant little mermaid then pressed the space button on the AI bracelet. He then took out a milky white nutrient from the space backpack.
An Jin's attention was immediately attracted. That thing came out of nothing!
He stared at the nutrient. In the milky white liquid, there were scattered black particles, much smaller than the black spots of fish.
Norman drank the nutrient quickly and pointed to the fish: "I have my food, these are yours."
After speaking, he got up and quickly left the mermaid room.
The door closed behind him. He stood there for two seconds before going to the study.
After reading a paragraph of the document for a while, a pair of watery eyes kept appearing in his mind.
Although the other party was just a mermaid, he did misunderstand the other side, hurt the other side, and rejected the other side's kindness.
He hasn't even apologized yet!
This made him feel really uncomfortable. What an ass guy he is!!!
He thought for a moment then opened the "Manual for Raising Mermaid", and directly found the page that mentioned what a mermaid likes in general. The first answer was obviously food.
He closed the book and opened AI to browse the aquatic product's mall. The pages full of merchandise made him dazzled.
He simply ranked them in descending order of price, chose a big channel, placed an order, and asked them to deliver those things tomorrow morning.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!

Did he misunderstand or is the mermaid consciously saying that he doesn't understand?He gently lifted the tray with his fingers and then moved it away. The tray hit the ground with a soft noise, drawing the little mermaid's eyes to the tray, then he pointed to the fish: "Eat."An Jin understood his gestures. The words that the doctor and this man said were very short, but they had the same pronunciation. He secretly guessed and memorized that it meant 'eat'.He wagged his tail, swam to the edge of the pool, held his hands on the shore, and looked up at the man.The man was still handsome up close and his masculinity was even more obvious. Because the aura of this man was too strong, An Jin's heart couldn't help but speed up.Norman did not speak anymore but pointed at the fish again.An Jin obediently bowed his head and raised his index finger to fillet fish skillfully. When he was about to put it in his mouth, he thought of his plan to please the 'master'. So, he turned his hand and handed the fillet to Norman.Norman saw the mermaid's hand moving towards him. He acted faster than he himself had thought. He grabbed the mermaid's wrist and said in a deep voice, "Finally you are showing your true colors.....................................?"He thought that the little mermaid finally wanted to attack him, but after catching it, he realized that something was wrong.The softness in the mermaid's hands did not have the strength to attack."Hiss..." An Jin gasped in pain. His eyes widened and water appeared in his beautiful eyes.Norman immediately let go. Seeing the little mermaid's wet eyes, he couldn't help but apologize.But........... is this mermaid acting spoiled?He had once seen a mermaid breaking its hand. That mermaid wasn't crying but was acting fierce.An Jin glanced at his wrist. His fair wrist was slightly reddish. There was no wound and even the pain quickly dissipated.The mermaid's body was much stronger than when he was a human being.He blinked and the waters in his eyes disappeared. Recalling the scene just now, he guessed that this man might hate others approaching him.He didn't give up.He thought for a moment and put the fillets on the clean space of the tray.Then he took two more slices and placed them there.Thinking that this dude might have obsessive-compulsive disorder, the three fishes were neatly placed.He raised his head to look at the man. He bent his eyes slightly, looking particularly pleasing. He pushed the tray: "Here you are."His voice was very soft and it sounded very gentle.Norman could not understand what the mermaid said, but he understood what the mermaid was doing. Hearing the soft voice of the mermaid, his apology turned into guilt.The little mermaid didn't want to attack him but wanted to share food.Even after he misunderstood the little mermaid and almost broke the little mermaid's hand, the little mermaid still shared the food with him.The little mermaid's kindness was straightforward and sincere. So he could hardly refuse it for a while.But it's only for a while.As the Emperor of the Soo Star and concurrently serving as the Imperial Marshal, he must always remain sensible.Uncooked fish is a disaster for the spirit sea.He glanced at the expectant little mermaid then pressed the space button on the AI bracelet. He then took out a milky white nutrient from the space backpack.An Jin's attention was immediately attracted. That thing came out of nothing!He stared at the nutrient. In the milky white liquid, there were scattered black particles, much smaller than the black spots of fish.Norman drank the nutrient quickly and pointed to the fish: "I have my food, these are yours."After speaking, he got up and quickly left the mermaid room.The door closed behind him. He stood there for two seconds before going to the study.After reading a paragraph of the document for a while, a pair of watery eyes kept appearing in his mind.Although the other party was just a mermaid, he did misunderstand the other side, hurt the other side, and rejected the other side's kindness.He hasn't even apologized yet!This made him feel really uncomfortable. What an ass guy he is!!!He thought for a moment then opened the "Manual for Raising Mermaid", and directly found the page that mentioned what a mermaid likes in general. The first answer was obviously food.He closed the book and opened AI to browse the aquatic product's mall. The pages full of merchandise made him dazzled.He simply ranked them in descending order of price, chose a big channel, placed an order, and asked them to deliver those things tomorrow morning.
