‘As Dacia spoke, there was horror in his eyes.

“During my escape, I saw many mermaids’ corpses and limbs. I could even smell the thick scent of blood. It didn’t feel like a dream at all.”

Dacia shook his head in anguish and for a moment, he couldn’t continue.

Theld his hand and tried to give him some comfort.

“During my escape, my fishtail was penetrated by something strange. That thing even exploded, and the lower half of my fishtail was blown into pieces!”

‘As Dacia recounted, I recalled the scene when I first picked him up.

At that time, the lower half of his tail had indeed rotted, and pale blue sticky blood was flowing everywhere.

“I didn’t dare to turn back. I endured the pain and swam upwards with all my might. At the same time, I heard a man’s voice. He said that only by finding my true love can I recover my memories and strength.”

Hearing this, I was shocked. No wonder he had such a huge reaction when he saw the reader’s message. It turned out that the sentence had already appeared in his dream and it had happened more than once.

“Could these dreams be your lost memories?” I asked curiously.

Dacia shook his head helplessly. “I don’t know. That’s all I dreamed of.”

“What has this dream got to do with humans?”

“Because I know very well in my dream that the murderer who killed a large number of merpeople was a human!”

Hatred shone in Dacia’s eyes as he spoke.

“Wait, all of this is just a dream, isn’t it?” I quickly reminded him.

“But the content of the dream isn’t baseless. For example, after you met me, you have been repeatedly having the dream of floating at sea,” Dacia said.

I fell silent, because I had to admit he had a point.

“But how can you be sure that the reader is also a merman? After all, you two have never met,” I questioned.

Dacia looked at me and said, “She should be arriving at Eureka soon, with her lover.”

“She’s coming over?” I exclaimed.

Dacia nodded.

This was too sudden. I was a little worried. “Will she be like the merman from before? Once she senses your aura, she won’t be able to stop herself from killing someone?”

“I don’t think so. Because she’s like me. She met her true love after she went ashore.”

Dacia looked at me with affection in his eyes.

Iwas moved by this sudden confession and threw my arms around him.

“Tm sorry. I shouldn’t have doubted you,” I apologized.

“Tm the one who shouldn’t have kept anything from you,” Dacia reassured me.

“Let me tell you good news. I’ve resigned. I don’t have to work starting tomorrow!”

“That’s great. I have to write and operate the forum in the next two days. I’m extremely busy.”

“From tomorrow onwards, I’ll help you manage things other than writing.”

The doorbell rang just as I finished speaking.

Both Dacia and I were stunned. Who would come at this time?

“Could it be that reader?” I look at the door with widened eyes.

Dacia became serious. He got up and went to the door. “Who is it?” he asked.

“Is it Dacia?” A pleasant female voice sounded.

Dacia nodded at me and opened the door.

‘As the two people outside walked in, I couldn’t help but hold my breath.

Oh my god! There was actually such a beautiful girl in this world!

She had long golden hair like Dacia and deep blue eyes like the sea. Her skin was as fair as snow and her facial features were exquisite, like those of a legendary goddess!

She must be a mermaid! Even if she had a pair of slender legs under her slender waist, I could imagine her with a fishtail.

The ordinary-looking and shy boy following behind her should be her boyfriend.

“Hi, I’m Tricia and this is my husband, Roger.”

Husband? Were they already married?

How did they get married? Was it legal?

Had Tricia already gotten her human identification?

How had she met Roger? And how had she transformed her legs?

I was puzzled by the sudden appearance of the mermaid.

Dacia, on the other hand, was calmer than I was. He politely invited them to sit and poured them a glass of water.

“Where are you from and what transport did you take?” Dacia asked.

Tricia looked at Roger and smiled as she replied, “Roger drove here. Our place isn’t far from here. It’s in Sifri Town.”

What a coincidence. I just mentioned this place to the police not long ago.

At that moment, the phone rang. I quickly got up to answer it. I didn’t want to disturb Dacia and Tricia’s conversation.

“Hello?” I picked up the phone, and my eyes involuntarily fell on Tricia.

“Help!” A sharp cry sounded.

‘My heart tightened and I subconsciously looked away. “Who are you?”

“Tm Lily. Annie, save me. My father is crazy!” Annie cried bitterly, and her voice trembled with fear.

“Lily, don’t worry. Speak slowly.” I tried to stay calm.

“lL… I’m hiding in the bathroom. Dad’s outside pounding the door with an ax. He wants to kill me. Listen!”

Lily must have raised the receiver to the bathroom door. Dong! Dong! It was indeed the sound of a door being slammed.

“Lily, baby, open the door for Daddy!” Daniel’s creepy roar came through the phone..
