Chapter 243 Merit +1
...
Looking at the handsome face in front of her, Lusa, who was just beginning to fall in love, felt her cheeks getting hot. She tried to dodge shyly, but accidentally hit her forehead directly on Geer's chin.
"Ouch~!"
Lusa covered her forehead and let out a pure and ethereal cry.
Gel used his little finger to pick his ear, and wondered if this was the voice of a siren. She could even make such a nice sound, but her eardrums couldn't stand it. He looked at the little mermaid girl in front of him and joked:
"I told you to just stay still and let me do it."
"Oh! I'm so sorry!"
Lusa hurriedly bowed her head and apologized.
"If you keep moving, you can choose whether to steam or braise it."
Gur threatened.
“Ah! I’m sorry!!”
This time, Lusa really didn't dare to move at all. She closed her eyes, straightened her neck, and let Ger do what he wanted. A tear slid down her smooth and white face.
"Crack!"
After many twists and turns, the key was finally inserted into the keyhole and the collar was successfully opened. The difficulty was comparable to helping Ace open the handcuffs during the Battle of Marineford.
Ha Qiu looked on in confusion, not knowing what the two were doing.
"Oh, thank you, thank you!"
Lusa touched her neck, looked at the collar that fell to the ground, and thanked the strange man in front of her.
Gel directly put the key into her hand and said:
"Help your companion open it as well."
Lusa stared at the keychain in her hand for a few seconds before reacting.
"Ah! Okay!"
Yes, male mermaids certainly don't deserve Captain Gir's personal unlocking service.
Soon, the gift Ha Qiu also regained his freedom, but even though the shackles on their bodies had been removed, the two of them still stood there stupidly waiting for Gelfa to fall, and did not dare to turn around and run away.
"Uh, why are you still standing there? You are free now, go back, go back to Fishman Island."
The mermaid brother and sister looked at each other and saw the disbelief in each other's eyes.
"Really? Are you really willing to let us go?"
Somewhat unbelieving their ears, the two asked again to confirm.
"Just leave if I tell you to. Why are you talking so much nonsense? Remember not to wander around when you have nothing to do. If you get caught by humans again, you won't be so lucky. Let's go."
"Thank you, human. You are my friend forever. If you have the chance to come to Fishman Island, we will definitely treat you well! Lusa, let's go!"
Ha Qiu bowed solemnly to Geer and thanked him, then jumped into the sea with a splash. In the past, he longed for the land, but after this experience, he now felt that he only had a sense of security in the sea!
Seeing that his little sister didn't catch up, he turned around and floated up again, revealing his head above the sea, and anxiously urged:
"Lusa, come down quickly! We have to get out of here!"
The mermaid seemed to be deaf. She looked at Gel and asked timidly:
"My lord, can you tell me your name? I will pray devoutly every day to the sea god to bless you with a smooth journey!"
"of course can."
Of course you have to leave your name when you do good things. Sometimes you have to leave not only your name but also evidence, otherwise you will be falsely accused.
"Come on, I'll just sign it for you."
Since the man with a mustache was standing right next to him, Gel didn't want to help the Celestial Dragons get free publicity, so he could only take out an oil-based signing pen, stretch out his left hand and grab Lusa's soft little hand, holding the pen cap in his mouth, and write his name on the palm of her hand.
"Okay, remember to help me promote it when you get back!"
"I will, thank you, sir. Goodbye, sir!"
After coming to her senses, Rosa quickly pulled back the little hand that Captain Gel was holding. She said thank you and jumped into the sea in panic.
“With a plop!”
A splash of water exploded beside Ha Qiu, even more exaggerated than the one caused by the Philippine fishing team, and the sea water splashed directly on his face.
Ha Qiu was a little confused. Although it was nothing for him to be splashed with water, as a mermaid, he felt that the splash caused by Lusa entering the water was really unbearable to watch.
My sister’s diving level is usually not like this. What happened today?
Ha Qiu shook his head to get rid of the things he didn't understand, then dived into the water and swam towards the deep sea.
...
Gel clapped his hands and turned back, muttering to himself:
“Today, merit +1!”
"No, there are two. Today's merit is +1!"
Seeing that Gel released the two precious mermaids back into the sea as soon as he went out, although the little mustache was full of confusion and pain, he was sensible and kept his mouth shut and watched the whole process, not daring to say anything to stop it.
Because it was already Gel's "private property", Gel could do whatever he wanted with it without questioning. But now that Gel had finally finished, he still couldn't help but be curious and asked in a low voice:
"Sir, what are you doing?"
Gel smiled slightly and said calmly:
"If you have money, you can do whatever you want. Buy two fish and let them go."
"What? Release them?"
The mustache guy's eyes widened in surprise.
A fishman worth hundreds of millions was bought and released? ? ?
I have to say, this wave is really like the Celestial Dragons! It's simply inhumane!
"Yeah, there's nothing to be surprised about. A rich man like me, who is so rich, must have done some shady things. Releasing some animals to accumulate merit and seek psychological comfort is a normal thing. Haven't you seen it?"
"Merit?"
The man with a mustache felt that two out of three sentences he spoke to Ger touched upon his blind spots in knowledge.
He could only explain that there was such a huge gap between his knowledge and vision and that of the Celestial Dragons who were at the top of the pyramid that he could not understand some of the other party's most normal behaviors.
That's right, my Lord, you can't be wrong! It must be that I'm not good enough!
Seeing that his master seemed to be in a good mood after releasing the animals, he couldn't help but ask a few more questions about releasing the animals. Gel also had nothing to do, so he patiently fooled him with half-truths along the way.
The man with the mustache listened attentively and took notes. Finally, he could only sigh from the bottom of his heart:
"You are worthy of being called an adult. Your unique insights always amaze me! When I have the ability in the future, I will learn from you and do good deeds!"
"Uh, come on!"
The corner of Gel's mouth twitched, and he gave a perfunctory encouragement. He was speechless in his heart, thinking that as a guy who is engaged in the slave trade business, you really need to accumulate some good karma, but don't say that you learned it from me.
The man with the mustache followed all the way until he sent Gel and his group out of Island No. 1, and then he was reluctant to say goodbye and leave.
"Do a good job. I have high hopes for you!"
Before leaving, Gel solemnly patted the mustache man's shoulder, not forgetting to add a sentence of 0-cost PUA at the end.
"Please rest assured, sir. I will run the auction house well even if I risk my life. I will definitely not let you down!"
Seeing that the man with a mustache looked very excited and had obviously been photoshopped, Gel waved his hand in satisfaction and strode away with a few others.
