Chapter 4: Take Him Home

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

I saw him take off his clothes and fold them neatly like I did. Then, wearing only his personal clothes, he walked into the sea.

I watched from a distance until he disappeared into the sea.

Would he return halfway through the suffocating pain?

If he came back and saw that his clothes were gone, would he be even more upset?

Thinking about how the mermaid was still waiting for me to return and the danger of being discovered by tourists at any time, I couldn’t care less.

When no one was around, I rushed forward and stole all of the bespectacled man’s clothes, including his black-framed glasses.

I quickly put on his clothes and his glasses. I disguised myself and returned to the beach with my head lowered.

The mermaid was still there. He, thinking I was a stranger, froze for a moment when he saw me dressed differently.

It wasn’t until I took off my glasses that he smiled again and extended his hand to me affectionately.

I lifted my jacket and looked at his fishtail. It was almost healed.

Then, I helped him up and placed his arm on my shoulder. It seemed like I was supporting him as he walked forward, but the weight of his entire body was on me.

Which meant I was still dragging him forward.

When they reached the side of the ship, the mermaid couldn’t get used to the number of people around him and revealed a timid expression.

I comforted him again and again. “Don’t be scared, don’t be scared. Let’s go home.â€�

It seemed to be both useful and useless at the same time. He was still timid, but fortunately, he didn’t throw a tantrum.

As soon as we were aboard, I dragged him to the passenger cabin and told him to wait for me here. Then I went to find the crew to buy the tickets.

But just as I reached into her pocket, I felt the ticket of the man in glasses.

Maybe with this ticket, I didn’t need a ticket?

It wasn’t that I wanted to freeload, but once the crew asked me for the mermaid credentials, I didn’t know where to find it for him.

I wondered if the citizens of the ocean country where mermaids lived also needed such credentials like humans did.

Only by holding an ID could he prove that he was a human.

I smiled wryly at the thought and returned to the cabin.

“Mmm, mm.”

The mermaid was grinning at me happily again, a little like the Labrador I’d raised when I was a kid. Even if I’d only been out for a little while, when I got back, it would jump up and down in excitement.

However, I didn’t have the time to laugh with him. I had to find a place to hide him so that when the crew came to check the tickets later, they wouldn’t discover that there were two people with only one ticket.

After searching around, I couldn’t find a suitable hiding spot for a mermaid. Helpless, I could only hide him under the blanket and try to make the blanket as messy as possible so that the crew wouldn’t notice that someone was hiding underneath.

Soon, the ship left the island and headed inland.

When the crew came to check the tickets, they just stood outside the cabin and glanced around. After checking my ticket, they turned and left.

It turned out that they would not check that seriously.

Could it be that he was so careless because there were guests who went to the island and never returned?

So what if there was one more or one less?

There were not many people traveling to the island, so there was no need to be so serious.

The matter of transporting the mermaid home went even smoother than I had imagined.

Once we got off the boat, I rented a car at the pier and pulled him all the way back to my rented apartment.

This matter was a little awkward. Although there was still half a year to go before the rental deadline, I had specially told the landlord in advance that I was leaving because I had made up my mind to die. There was also no need to return my deposit and rent.

The landlord took advantage of me, so he naturally treated me very well. He even said that he would wait for me to come back one day. As long as the house was empty, I could continue living there.

She must not have thought that I would be back after two days. If I were her, I might think that this tenant was joking with me!

Sure enough, after I called her and told her I was coming back, she sounded upset.

Because not long after I left, a tenant called her and said he wanted to see the room.

They had arranged to meet this afternoon, and because of my sudden return, she had no choice but to call and reject the tenant.

I felt sorry for her and quickly told her she didn’t have to reject other tenants. She could also refund the deposit and rent to me. I’d go find another place.

The landlord was obviously unwilling to refund the money, so she could only choose to reject the tenants.

Just like that, I returned to my cramped apartment and brought back a real mermaid!

Fortunately, I insisted on having a bathtub in the bathroom. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have had a place to put this big guy.

I had not returned for two days, but everything in the room was still the same.

Dust floated in the coffee cup on the table. It was time to wash the furball-covered sofa.

I had to put the mermaid in the water before I cleaned up the house.

So I filled the tub with warm water and dragged the mermaid inside.

He was not used to the new environment. He curled up in the bathtub and looked around timidly.

“Don’t be afraid, this is my house.”

I wished he understood what I was saying.

“Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something?”

Speaking of food, I was hungry too.

It was strange. Even though I was starving, I still didn’t have any appetite.

I opened the fridge and saw two eggs inside. My eyes lit up and I quickly fried them..
