Cub Raising Association

Chapter 33

The larvae of the mermaid may fade from the age of one to five years old. This is not because of illness or unhealthiness, but only a normal phenomenon in the process of growing up the larvae. 

For example, it is similar to the situation in which a human child changes teeth.

Generally, when the squama is about to fade, the larvae of the mermaid will feel.

In order to collect the first scales that have been dropped, the mermaid cubs usually instinctively stay in a fixed water area when they are conscious.

After waiting for the first scale to fall, it is easier to find.

The mermaid cub will carefully collect the first scale found, and then hand it over to the parents when they see the parents.

The first scales dropped by the cubs are very commemorative, so normally, parents will be particularly happy when they receive the small scales that the young cubs have brought.

Although for the cubs without parents, the staff in the Cubs Nursing Club is indeed their guardian, but there is still a difference between the guardian and the parent identified by the cub.

Like the mermaid cub, the first scale that dropped it was given to Xie Tao, but not to other caregivers in the club.

From the other populations, I learned about the scales of the mermaid pups. Xie Wei first stayed for a second, and then he reached out and found his own pocket.

The small piece of the finger touched the pocket was smooth and cool, a bit like a jade scale like a jade sheet. Xie couldn't help but take the scale out of his pocket.

Under the eyes of everyone around, Xie Tao looked down at the mermaid scales and couldn't speak for a while.

The ice blue scales dropped by the mermaid cubs are particularly transparent in the indoor light. I was originally prepared to collect the scales. Now I know the importance of this scale. Xie Zhenna The movement of this scale is even more careful.

This little mermaid treats him as a parent...?

Looking at the ice blue scales on his hand, thinking about this problem, Xie Zhen suddenly felt that the small scales resting in his palms seemed to have an unreasonable weight.

I feel that this small piece of scale has become a bit heavy, and Xie Tao now reminiscent of another thing -

Because the mermaid cub can't talk normally, the sound that can usually be emitted is at most a low-pitched tone. This single tone is still mixed with the sound of the gas, which needs to be listened carefully to hear.

Xie Tao now has no reason to think that this mermaid cub is usually sent to him most often, and it is also the syllable that makes the clearest and hardest work...

After feeding the cubs with the other three nurses, Xie Wei first returned to the staff quarters and placed the ice blue scales in his pockets in a wooden box.

In this wooden box, a few grains of grain-sized spar were still lying in it. After the scales were put in, Xie Wei re-locked the wooden box and placed it on the bedside.

Carefully close the scales, Xie Tao went back to the indoor pool in the room, he wanted to confirm one thing. Hearing the familiar footsteps, the mermaid cub in the pool quickly swam in the direction of the footsteps, because the mermaid cubs could not stand ashore, the mermaid cubs leaned against the pool, and the blue eyes looked at the pool without hesitation. The young people who are coming close to here.

When Xie Zhen really approached the pool, his left hand was touched by the mermaid cub after his knees.

The small hand with water touched the back of the young man's left hand. This was only a light gold short-haired mermaid cub that gently grabbed a young finger.

"a?" Look at the left hand of the young man, then look at the right hand of the young man. The mermaid cub grabs the youth's fingers and shakes it forward and backward, giving a low-intelligence Air sound.

It's hard to understand only by voice, but Xie Tao can at least understand that this is a pronunciation of asking him questions, and through this cub movement, Xie Tao probably understands that this mermaid cub is asking him what.

"I have already collected it, put it in a wooden box, and will keep the scales for the car." Xie Yu explained slowly, did not withdraw his finger that was caught by the mermaid cub, and vacated another Just touch the soft short hair of this cub.

"a~"

The small fish tail covered with ice blue scales shook under the water, especially the tail fins moved in the left and right direction. The mermaid cub quickly sent a happy tone.

The parents took the first scales that they had dropped and said that they would take care of them. This is also a happy thing for the larvae.

Because from this matter, the baby can feel the love of the parents.

And just because of this feeling, this mermaid cub is now more interested in making a voice to the young people in front of them.

"pa..."

The first sound, the voice of the sound accounted for the vast majority, the mermaid cub stopped, and after a few seconds, it opened a second sound.

"pa-" Azure blue eyes still look at the youth, the mermaid cubs try to make this single tone, and after the sound is finished, it waits quietly for the youth's reaction.

It can be heard that this sound is made even harder, so it is much clearer, but it seems to be the limit that this mermaid cub can currently do.

Xie Tao did not think about the meaning of this syllable before. Especially when the mermaid cub tried to make this single tone to him, Xie Tao seriously thought about what this cub was saying to him.

Because this mermaid cub every time he is against him

After the completion of this single tone, he will look at him with a look that looks like a little expectation, which makes Xie Tao always mistakenly think that this little cub wants something...

I couldn't figure out what this mermaid cub wants. Xie Tao has been worried about this matter until today.

He was afraid that he would ignore the important needs expressed by the cub, and thus lead to any bad consequences.

Until now, Xie Tao finally figured it out.

"Yeah." Nodded to the mermaid cub who was near the edge of the pool. Xie Wei bent his eyes on the cub who looked at him with anticipation. Hearing the sound, the tail fins of the mermaid cubs under the water suddenly swayed more and more, and the hand holding the young fingers increased the strength more than just now, trying to make the two syllables more clearly and consistently: "pa...a ......"

It can be seen that this cub has been working very hard. Although the second syllable failed to be successfully issued, Xie Tao now understands it.

This mermaid cub wants to call him "papa". After making a sound, he looks at him with a look of hope. In fact, he only hopes that he will respond in words...

"Yeah." Wen Sheng should be down, Xie Tao nodded again, the second response.

When I realized that this mermaid cub was trying to call myself "papa", Xie Tao actually had a feeling of being unprepared.

But now that the cub is trying so hard to issue these two syllables to him, Xie Zhen will soon be soft.

Even in a coherent voice, this mermaid cub can only send a syllable, and he will certainly respond when he hears it.
