He Has a Sickness that Needs to be Cured Chapter 215

The subordinate outside had just finished changing the water and placed the aquarium back in place. When he looked up, he saw Louis leaning against the wall next to the bathroom door, a large part of his clothes were wet, and there were water droplets on his face.

The subordinate stammered, “B-boss, you...… what happened?”

Louis lifted his eyelids and glanced at the door. The subordinate understood what he meant, shut up and left the room silently.

In the bathroom, Xi Ning was washing his fishtail with the shower head. When he turned to his side, he found a small piece of fish scale in the bathtub.

The scales were only as wide as two fingers, and it should have fallen from his tail. Xi Ning immediately got nervous, he placed the scales on the table behind him and then held his tail to see if there was any bald spot.

The system comforted, “This is normal, the old ones will fall off when the new ones grow, besides master is about to reach adulthood, so some old fish scales will also fall off in the future.”

His fish tail still looked the same as before. Xi Ning didn't find any bald spot, so he was relieved and knocked on the bathtub to signal that Louis could come in.

Louis opened the door and walked in. His clothes were still wet since he didn't change them. He suddenly stopped when he reached out to pick up Xi Ning, and looked at the clothes Xi Ning was wearing, “It seems that you have never changed your shirt, do you want me to let someone make a new one for you?”

There doesn't seem to have Xi Ning's clothes in the supplies brought back from the Federation spaceship. Even if his clothes are made of different materials, he can't only wear them for so long.

Xi Ning didn't want to change it, and shook his head hesitantly. When Louis picked him up, he remembered the scale that had fallen, and turned his head to find it but his scales were nowhere to be seen on the table.

“What are you looking for?” Louis followed his sight, and there was no abnormality on his face, “There is nothing there.”

Xi Ning turned his head to look at Louis, and said with certainty, “You took it.”

Louis took him out and said with a cold face, “What have I taken? I don't care about your things.”

He didn't admit it, and Xi Ning really believed it a bit and looked at him suspiciously, but the system said, “I saw it, he was the one that took it.”

Why did he secretly take his scale? Xi Ning snorted softly and didn't speak again. He lay down in the aquarium and wanted to take a nap.

Louis squeezed the scale in his palm and returned to his room contentedly. After he left, someone appeared from the corner of the corridor, lowered his head and sent a message to Vera on the communicator.

Vera did not go to the nuclear star, but went to the Black Saturn, which was rich in coal mines. If she listened to Louis's words and went to the nuclear star to dig coal, she would never be able to return.

After receiving the message, Vera squeezed the communicator, her fingertips turning white, and a mocking sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth.

She knew that Louis's attitude towards the mermaid was abnormal, so before leaving, he arranged someone to watch over and report to her in time if there was any situation.

In the past few days, Louis and Xi Ning were almost inseparable. By the time she finished digging a thousand tons of coal and brought it back, Louis might not want to see her anymore.

Vera couldn't hide the strong jealousy on her face. She replied a few words to the person who sent the message and asked him to do something for her.

Louis went back to the room and turned on the display screen. After watching Xi Ning's sleeping face for a while, he rummaged through the drawer to find a small drill, and carefully drilled a small hole at the edge of the scale.

He wanted to tie it on a rope and wear it around his wrist to show off his sovereignty of Xi Ning to everyone. But the size of the scales was not suitable for him to wear on his wrist, so Louis used a longer rope and tied a knot to be worn on his neck.

On the screen, Xi Ning turned over and seemed to be sleeping erratically. The fish tail floating calmly in the water flickered a few times, quickly switching between the fish tail and the human legs, and finally returned back to a fish tail that was gently swung in the water.

Louis didn't see what happened. He took a mirror and looked at the fish scale that he was wearing and touched it with satisfaction.

He looked at it for a while and then felt that something was wrong. He used Xi Ning's scales to make an accessory. Is it what he thought it was?

Louis tucked the scales into his neckline and covered it with his clothes, deciding to enjoy it alone.

On the other side, Xi Ning, who was sleeping, suddenly felt very cold. He opened his eyes and emerged from the water, leaning against the edge of the aquarium while touching his cold fish tail in a daze.

He seemed to dream that he had turned back into a human. He had been in the water for so long that he had basically gotten used to his fishtail, but this shape was really inconvenient, and he never even went out of this room.
