Chiaki tried many methods, but they couldn't make him cry.Until, after eating stinky mandarin fish, salted fish, sake lees, and pickled fish for a month.The boy finally burst into tears.The tears of the Siren are different from the saline of humans.His tears do not fade when they fall, but condense together, like a legend, like pearls, with a faint sheen.He had a lot of tears and were buried in Chiaki's shoulder socket.Tears like pearls fell to the ground."
Can't you eat any of these things next month.""
Humans are so scary, I don't want to be human."
Chiaki was very relieved and patted him on the shoulder, her tone was extraordinarily gentle."
Well deserved.""
Woohoo."
He cried even more sadly.…… Chiaki began to observe his state after becoming a human.He began to gradually forget everything about the Kraken, everything about the sea.The memories before the 100-year coming-of-age ceremony began to blur, and I only remembered the first time I met Qianqiu, as well as the memories that followed.He also began to have the sound of his heartbeat, and his body began to have a temperature.Over time.Winter is coming.He managed to get a job.He worked as a lecturer at the nearest marine research university.Early morning.The wind outside the window was whistling, beating against the glass, and it was particularly arrogant.Chiaki opened her eyes and felt a trace of cold air through the window, burrowing into the warm air-conditioned room and shrinking into the quilt.She turned around and saw the man lying beside her.His eyelashes were long and thick, like butterfly wings, and when he opened them slightly, the eyes under his eyes were dark and dark blue, looking towards her.He blinked, looking a little dazed, and leaned over to rub Chiaki's cheek."
Good morning."
He said in a low voice.Chiaki lazily said, "It's time for you to go to work." ”Only then did he react, raised his eyes and looked out the window, and saw a snowy patch outside."
It's snowing."
He said, standing up slightly to look.His memories of being a kraken were blurred, but he could still vaguely remember that he had never seen snow.This is him in the human world.The first snow I've ever seen."
It's still ......," he whispered.It was different from the curiosity and surprise that he poked his head out.Chiaki shrank silently, almost burying herself in the quilt.Qianling also found out about her dislike and said, "Don't you like it?
”"Well, I don't like it.""
It's too cold for the snow," she said. ”"Oh......" he replied in a low voice, glanced at the message on his phone, and said, "I don't have to go to class today, the road is blocked by heavy snow." ”"That's not good."
Chiaki said, with the intention of continuing to sleep.As soon as Qianling stretched out her hand, she lifted the quilt that Qianqiu was wrapping in.Before she could show a look of resistance, his beautiful voice sounded in her ears, saying, "Get up and play with me." ”"I don't want to play.""
No, you want to.""
No, I don't want to."
When Chiaki was still raising the bar with him, she felt his fingertips fall on her face and squeeze hard.Qianqiu's voice said vaguely, "Let go, I don't want to move." ”"I want to move, if you don't let me play in the snow, I'll play with you."
His tone was extraordinarily straightforward.If he let his students see that the senior lecturer in the University of Marine Research, who is both beautiful and knowledgeable, shows such a childish and naïve appearance.I'm afraid I will doubt life.
