How to become a mermaid

Chapter 94 Do you remember how many slices of bread you have eaten?
"I had fish fever, and before I was an adult, I couldn't wait to go out to sea and find traces of mermaids."

"At the price of severing ties with my father, I drove a small boat out to sea. At that time, I was very ambitious and thought that I would be able to make a career and become the overlord that everyone admired on the sea!"

"However, when I first arrived on the second island, an accident happened."

"I met a woman named Katerina there. She has beautiful red hair and black eyes, and she smiles so beautifully and gently. She approached me actively, greeted me, and helped me solve my problems."

"At that moment, I thought I met the love of my life."

"However, reality gave me a loud slap in the face, let me know that I am still an idiot! Katerina betrayed me, she cheated me of all my money, ran away from my boat, and even stole my Clothes, laughing and walking away."

"I lost everything. I only wore a pair of underpants to chase on the shore, and even jumped into the sea to save my boat, but she was ridiculed like a clown."

"The harsh and sharp laughter echoed in my ears, and other people on the pier also came to watch the fun, talking about being pitiful and pointing at me while laughing."

The diary made a yin and yang voice between its throats, and mocked: "Look, look, here is a hapless guy who was cheated by a woman and ran around with his bare ass! Look, look! This hapless guy will die tomorrow because he can't stand it." Hit and jump into the sea!"

Hearing the sarcasm from the diary, a vein popped up on Moni's forehead.

"I have endured a great humiliation. This scene is unforgettable to me, and sometimes it even appears in my dreams and wakes me up suddenly."

"I gave up on love because of it, and even started to hate all women with red hair! But I didn't jump into the sea like those people expected! And never will! I, Moony Cash, will not be like a coward Die!"

"I lost everything, as well as the shame and pity I had left. I started to cheat, and even formed a gang with other villains to rob."

"I don't care about other people's wailing and praying, as long as it is a way to get money, I will try it!"

"My actions allowed me to successfully accumulate a large amount of wealth without any retribution, because all rich people started like this! Exploitation, slavery, squeezing, and plundering are the only ways to become rich!"

"Human beings are ugly and stupid. This is the most useful truth I have learned in my life."

"I got more and more money, and I was flattered and flattered by more and more people. I was surrounded by Mr. Money wherever I went."

"But... my heart became more and more empty. I began to dream all night and all night, dreaming of the day when I was about to drown, dreaming of the blue to black sea water and that silver-white figure."

"Mermaid, I need a mermaid, a mermaid who will never leave me or betray me!"

"This thought has taken over my mind, my soul, my everything!" the diary yelled hoarsely.

Hearing this, Moni couldn't help but yelled again: "Enough! Shut up! Say one more word and I'll burn you!"

His face was pale and his teeth were clenched.

"I've said it all, it's not an interesting story!" Money trembled.

He felt a little regretful, why did he record his embarrassing past in the diary, was it because he was afraid that he would forget it?
But how could these things be forgotten!
He hugged his head with his hands, and yelled like a broken jar: "You are the one who insisted on hearing it! I am... such an ugly and selfish human being!"

"Your thinking is wrong, I am clearly hopeless! I am not a good person! I kill and set fire and commit all kinds of crimes!"

"It was the mermaid who saved me, but I want to imprison you. A villain like me, who is willing to repay my kindness and do all kinds of evil, should be drowned in the sea. I shouldn't be rescued at all, and no one wants me to live, right?"

Having said that, Moni raised his head and looked at Pochi with red eyes.

He is now shrouded in gloom and sadness, manic and fragile.

Pochi has been quietly listening to the diary telling the story without making any sound, and even after hearing Moni's question, he didn't respond at all, as if he didn't want to talk.

Such silence made Moni misunderstand, thinking that Pochi had given up on himself.

"Hahahaha, you just said that you want to be my father just for fun! You don't know who I am! When you know that I'm like everyone else..." Monny scratched his hair, expressing despair big laugh.

Just when he was about to give up on himself, he suddenly felt cold.

Pochi gave Moni a hug, and slowly patted his back with his hands, trying to soothe his restless emotions.

Feeling the cold and wet touch from his back, the manic red dragon gradually calmed down.

"Any creature is ugly and selfish," said Pochi.

"Because we are alive! We need food to live, and we need a victim!"

"Even us mermaids kill other fish for food, break up other fish's families, and repeat this behavior day in and day out."

"I can't remember how many sharks I've eaten, how many eels, how many rays... just like you can't remember how many slices of bread you've eaten."

"Is this unforgivable behavior in the eyes of the victimized fish? Are they without a mother, without a mate?"

"They do! And we know they do! But I do it anyway because I need their life to sustain my own!"

Having said that, Pochi let go of his arms holding Moni, and put them on Moni's shoulders.

He looked at Moni squarely, and said firmly: "No one, no creature is isolated in this world. Any life activity will affect other creatures. This is the law of nature!"

"But... the most important thing is restraint!"

"I don't like other humans because they are greedy and their desires are endless and can never be satisfied!"

Having said that, Pochi paused.

He showed a smile to Mooney, and said in a relieved tone: "But Mooney, my dear boy, you are different from others."

"I want to be your father, not just a whim, but I see restraint and hope in you, and I also see your pain."

"Today, are you still doing things that condemn your conscience in order to satisfy your desire?" Boqi asked.

Mooney didn't answer, he just stared at Pochi with red eyes.

The answer is self-evident.

"I don't think so. I know you are a good boy and you have a conscience, but it is because you have a conscience that makes you suffer even more. You regret what you have done in the past, you have lost your purpose in life, and you even want to find a something to save yourself."

"This thing is a mermaid!" Pochi said with a smile.

"You think having a mermaid can save you, because you were rescued by a mermaid once in despair, so hope the mermaid can save you a second time!"

"You regard the merman as your last hope and sustenance, but you don't know how to properly contact the merman, so you use your most common method: looting!"

"You know your behavior is wrong, but you are afraid of losing, so you can only make mistakes."

Pochi looked at Moni lovingly, touched the messy black hair on the top of Moni's head with his hand, and said, "But...even if you get a mermaid, you are still in pain, right?"

"I..." Hearing Pochi's words, Moni wanted to refute, but seeing his gentle and firm eyes, he couldn't get out of his mouth.

Without waiting for Moni to say anything, Pochi hugged him again, and said in an apologetic tone, "I'm sorry, Moni."

Hearing Pochi's apology all of a sudden, Moni was puzzled, did he feel sorry for himself?

"I forgot, so I saw you."

"I should have finished singing that day and listened to your troubles before leaving, but I was caught by humans, and I was a little panicked when I saw you awake for a while..."

"If I'm not mistaken, that song should be the second in the Boqi Minor series. It's a song I wrote for myself. Your diary just sang the first line, but it's in the wrong key. I Almost didn't recognize it."

"If you still want to hear it, can I sing it to you again?" Pochi asked.

Hearing Pochi's words, Moni's pupils trembled violently, his eyes were filled with disbelief, and his whole body was trembling.

But Boqi couldn't see his reaction, and still said to himself: "Since fate brought us together again, maybe it's to make up for this regret."

"Moni, be my son! Tell me your story, and I will definitely listen to your troubles this time." Pochi said softly.

"Da da da…"

Suddenly, Pochi felt drops of water rolling down his back.

Not the water in his hair, but...something hotter.

"I'm sorry... I was wrong!"

Money collapsed to his knees, deeply repenting.
