"You …" Lan Mu was a little helpless, the other side teleported him directly to the beach of the fishery.
Fortunately, there were no suspicious people or suspicious surveillance equipment nearby.
Looking up at the sky, there was a small piece of rain cloud floating, but just enough for the sun to shine through.
"Tang! Time's up! We won! "
A clear voice sounded, the chubby girl and the blonde woman stopped the boat by the shore, waving their hands and shouting.
These two women were both stunning, and their faces were full of happy smiles.
Tang Xiaohai slapped his forehead and said in annoyance, "Oh no! I forgot about the game! "
"That's not right! I caught more than 20 fish, how could they surpass me in such a short time? "
The boat stopped, Tang Xiaohai jumped on and looked at the three barrels.
He saw that the other two buckets were full, but his bucket did not have a single fish.
"Where are my fish?" Tang Xiaohai was surprised.
The chubby girl smiled and said, "They all ran away! They jumped out of the barrel and fell into the water … "
"… Uh." Tang Xiaohai was speechless, then he said casually, "If you lose, then you lose."
"If you lose, then we'll go to Seattle tomorrow!"
Lan Mu connected with his mind power and asked, "What bet?"
Tang Xiaohai answered secretly, "A fishing competition, if I lose, I'll go shopping with them in Seattle. As long as I talk to CANC, with their permission, I can still go to some places to play for a while. Of course, I don't like to go shopping under surveillance. "
Lan Mu blinked and asked, "What if you win?"
"I'll cook fish for them at home …"
Lan Mu was speechless, it didn't matter if you won or not.
"Who is this?" The blonde woman looked at Lan Mu and asked.
Tang Xiaohai introduced, "He's my friend! His name is Ao Mu! "
"How did he come out of the sea?" The blonde woman was stunned.
Tang Xiaohai said, "Well, we met by chance! Don't worry about these details. "
"Ao Mu, they're my friends, Laura and Nami."
After that, he directly handed a wooden bucket to Lan Mu and said, "Help me, let's go!"
Lan Mu blankly carried the bucket and followed them to the small courtyard in front of the villa. The grass here was green and incomparably clean.
A snow-white table was moved to the grass. Beside it was a pond filled with all kinds of fish and turtles.
The baby fat Lola is feeding the fish, but Nami is always curiously looking at Lan Mu.
Lan Mu frowned slightly and said to Tang Xiaohai who was handling the fish, "I have something to do, I'll leave first!"
Then he stood up and was about to leave. Tang Xiaohai hurriedly shouted, "Don't! Eat before you leave! "
Lan Mu shook his head. He thought to himself, I don't lack this meal, so why bother?
But before he could refuse for the second time, Tang Xiaohai said, "Don't you eat fish?"
Lola, who was feeding the fish, suddenly said, "Tang's fish is delicious …"
Lan Mu smiled and said, "It's not about the fish …"
Tang Xiaohai suddenly said, "Sit down, I have something to tell you in a bit …"
Lan Mu was stunned. This Tang Xiaohai has a free and easy personality, and he's also very friendly. Because he thinks that he's a dragon monster, and because he also has a sense of belonging as a humanoid anomaly, he treated Lan Mu as a friend.
Lan Mu also used this to obtain a lot of information and gained a better understanding of CANC.
Regarding this guy who chatted with the head of CANC, Lan Mu was also very conflicted about whether or not he should treat him as a friend.
However, he was very concerned about Tang Xiaohai's so-called "talk", maybe it's very important information.
With that in mind, he sat down and silently waited for him to cook the fish.
Tang Xiaohai smiled and began to show his cooking skills.
It has to be said that his cooking skills are really good. There aren't many complicated techniques, but his effort is amazing. The amount of seasonings and the control of the fire are all very exquisite.
Half an hour later, he filled the table with all kinds of fish dishes. Just the aroma of the food made Lan Mu want to try it.
One has to know that he's a vampire, being able to have an appetite for grilled fish is a testament to his cooking skills.
The two beauties next to him were already very hungry, squinting their eyes in bliss.
"Let's dig in! Now's the perfect time! "Tang Xiaohai sat at the table and urged him to eat.
Lan Mu took a few bites and understood why the head of CANC came to freeload.
The meat quality of the fish was too perfect. As the Sea God, Tang Xiaohai must have done some kind of modification to the fish.
Just the perfect and uncontaminated meat quality alone is definitely delicious.
After the meal, all the fish on the table were swept clean. However, Lan Mu ate very awkwardly, indescribably awkwardly.
The boiling fish pond, the cool breeze, the clean courtyard, the delicious food, and the laughing couple.
Such a warm scene made Lan Mu feel very uncomfortable. It's been a long time since he sat down and had a good meal with friends.
Tang Xiaohai smiled and helped the two girls carry the empty plates into the mansion. After saying something, the two girls stayed in the mansion to give him and Lan Mu some private space.
"Let's go, my fish farm is very big, let's talk while we walk"
The two strolled along a freshwater lake, with the fresh and beautiful natural environment on both sides.
Under such beautiful scenery, eating delicious food and taking a stroll was indeed a leisurely lifestyle.
For a moment, Lan Mu envied Tang Xiaohai's life. Just like how he once dreamed of working with his friends, although it was hard, everyone was in the same boat, and it felt very good to slowly grow together.
But after gaining the ability to transform into countless non-humans, all of this changed. Because there was an organization in the world that specialized in fighting against anomalies, most people rejected anomalies.
But he knew that CANC's existence was necessary. At the very least, they needed a similar existence to suppress this crazy world, otherwise, it was unimaginable what the rampant anomalies would bring to human society.
Unfortunately, as an anomaly, he was destined to fight against such an organization. If he wanted to control his own life, he had to surpass CANC.
But now, there was another person who also had great power, who also yearned for a free and comfortable life, but he chose to compromise, relying on the so-called deterrence to indulge in the life he yearned for.
This was a kind of charity, a kind of false freedom, a kind of false happiness. Lan Mu suddenly stopped envying this false happiness, because what he wanted was a world with more freedom.
"Tang Xiaohai, why would someone with such power be willing to be restrained by CANC? You should be a man who roams the seas, not someone who's trapped on a small island, indulging in so-called domestic trifles "Lan Mu said.
He continued: "I don't believe that you're a man who's willing to indulge in a little bit of gentleness. Leave this place! Get out of this island! If they don't dare to kill you, what are you afraid of? CANC won't be able to trap you! Just like how they won't be able to catch me! "
Tang Xiaohai looked at Lan Mu in surprise, then abruptly laughed.
Under Lan Mu's confused gaze, he explained: "I'm not trapped … you seem to have misunderstood something. I told you, I willingly accepted the agreement, I'm staying here by my own will"
Tang Xiaohai asked in return: "You still don't understand? Do you not understand the meaning of 'restraints'? "
Lan Mu was surprised: "You're willing to be imprisoned for the sake of those two women?"
"You don't have any restraints, do you?" Tang Xiaohai replied: "I'm sorry, I forgot that you demonic beasts are about to go extinct … you who don't have parents, friends, or lovers wouldn't understand"
Tang Xiaohai laughed: "Of course you wouldn't be willing to be restrained, if I were you, I would also fight against CANC's containment force to the very end. But don't forget, everyone in this world is restrained, having the power to break a taboo doesn't mean you can do whatever you want "
"To stop the sea from overflowing, to stop the environment from being polluted, to make my family and friends happy, this is what I'm pursuing. And by making this agreement with CANC, all of this can be achieved, as long as I make a compromise, why wouldn't I do it? "
"Fish is what I want, bear paws are also what I want, if I can't have both, I'll give up the fish for the bear paws. I don't have much ambition, I'll give up some things that I don't really care about. I already have everything I need, so why would I want to destroy this beautiful peace? If they get hurt, I'll feel guilty. Oh right … I prefer to eat fish. "
Hearing Tang Xiaohai's preaching, Lan Mu was stunned for a moment, then immediately became firm again.
Although they were both powerful humanoid anomalies, the path they chose was completely different.
What Lan Mu wanted was true freedom. Even if there was no such thing as absolute freedom in this world, it was definitely not the so-called happiness of being shackled to an island.
Compared to Tang Xiaohai, at least he could explore a wider world, experience more wonderful things, and see the infinite unknown.
This freedom didn't depend on whether he wanted to or not, but on whether he had the right to choose. He could also pursue an ordinary life and warmth.
For this right, he could only fight to the end, until the day he no longer had to worry about being captured or destroyed …
He didn't say anything to Tang Xiaohai about this, because the other party was already satisfied. Their paths were different, so there was no point in saying anything more.
"You don't want to tell me this, do you?" Lan Mu stopped the topic, he didn't want to be influenced by others.
Tang Xiaohai replied: "Of course not, you interrupted me, I almost forgot …"
"You're different from me, the only thing waiting for you is imprisonment and research, so I don't want you to get caught either."
"Actually, CANC wanted me to help catch you before, but I refused. After all, I'm not one of their employees, catching anomalies has nothing to do with me."
Lan Mu was shocked. He caused a huge ruckus on the Lost Island and escaped unscathed, so CANC definitely wouldn't let him go. Fortunately, he had too many forms, so they couldn't catch him.
However, if Tang Xiaohai had agreed at the time, he would have been dead already. As long as he was in the sea, with his original strength, he definitely wouldn't have been able to fight against Tang Xiaohai.
Tang Xiaohai continued: "I won't tell CANC about what happened today, they can't monitor you in my territory, so I'll directly send you away through the sea."
"Right, although I don't want you to get caught, I advise you to hide and live. Come to my place occasionally, I'll treat you to fish! Don't take revenge on CANC, whether it's from a human's point of view, or from your friend's point of view, I don't want you to fight against them.
"You're too weak, there's no way you can win against CANC.
"Lan Mu's expression was strange, he rubbed his nose, this was the first time someone called him weak.
If it was just a Scaled Dragon, then he was indeed weak.
But Lan Mu wasn't just that … even he didn't know what his next transformation would be.
