Seeing that the distance between them was quite appropriate, Philip took out a notebook. With a pen,
he drew waves and a few figures that seemed like merpeople on it.
The mermaid became excited, but the boy did not react much.
Was the boy not a merman?
Philip slid his pen and notebook across the floor.
The boy picked them up and started to draw as Philip did. His drawing was quite sloppy, but Philip
could still see a few key things, such as the symbol for highly toxic chemicals and a few words that
were vague but still legible, which spelled Sammy.
Philip called out tentatively, “Sammy?”
The boy looked up at Philip, his tears uncontrollable. The message contained in those eyes included
pain, loneliness, indignity, and deep homesickness.
Philip had some idea now. This boy probably became like this after being exposed to toxic substances.
As for knowing the merpeople’s language, he was probably taken in by the merfolk.
He looked about 14 or 15 years old, and he could only write his name, so he had probably lived with
the merfolk for more than ten years. He was a pitiful child.
Philip crouched down and spread his arms open to the boy. He wanted to see if this most primitive
method would work.
The boy turned to look at the mermaid and hesitated for a moment. The mermaid kept encouraging
him. Finally, the boy could not hold back anymore and hugged Philip.
This should be the first time in more than ten years that another human being cared so much for him.
Philip patted him on the back and comforted him. The teenager hugged Philip tightly and refused to let
go.
After a while, the aquarium was opened. Some workers came in to clean up and feed the fish. One of
them saw Philip and the two creatures and quickly reported this matter to his superior.
After a while, a skinny man came over. He recognized the mermaid in the water tank and said with
shining eyes, “My friend, thank you for giving the aquarium a rare mermaid.”
“She’s my friend…” Philip did not look at him but felt the emotion the mermaid transmitted to him
through the glass.
“In that case, how much will it cost for us to buy your friend?” the man said, not giving up.
Philip looked at the well-dressed monster in human skin in front of him coldly and said, “Call your
manager over, that blond old man.”
The man waved his hand and said, “The manager isn’t on duty today, and you don’t call the shots here.
Trespassing on private premises makes you look like a terrorist to me.”
Seeing that Philip refused to budge, the man said to the people around, “Tie them up!”
Seeing that those people had bad intentions, the boy crouched down in an attacking pose, intimidating
the people approaching him slowly.
Philip took a step forward, stood in front of the boy, and said loudly, “Let’s see who dares to touch
them!”
The figure in front of him reminded the boy of his father who often carried him on his back when he was
a child, and his eyes began to turn red again.
Seeing that Philip was about to fight them to the end, coupled with the invincible aura that he exuded,
no one dared to take another step further.
During the stalemate, it was time for the aquarium to open for business. Due to what had happened
yesterday, many people came to watch the naked man’s performance.
Even though there were workers around, some people soon came to where the stalemate was
happening.
“What’s going on? A melodrama?”
“Look, is that a mermaid? I’ve only seen one in documentaries before!”
“This is really worth the money!”
The crowd turned on their videos and cameras.
The skinny man suddenly shouted to the crowd, “This man wants to steal the mermaid from our
aquarium. Please notify the patrol team!”
