"It seems like the third time..."
"Your companions are gone, there's no need to search." The old captain looked grave. "This sea area is very strange. It's said that when the mermaid sings, it means it's about to feed..."
The rest of the words need not be spoken; everyone understood in their hearts.
At that moment, the ethereal singing vanished. Shen Yu was dragged out of the water by two sailors, yelling desperately: "Let me go, I need to find them, I need to find them..."
"Young man, let it go! Don't risk your own life as well." The old captain ordered the sailors to pull Shen Yu up.
"No, no, we believe. I don't believe it..."
Shen Yu screamed, and because he had been diving for a long time, deep and without equipment, the water pressure had forced blood from his ears and nose. Combined with his pale face, it was terrifying.
Luo Yan rushed up, holding him, sobbing uncontrollably: "Shen Yu, Shen Yu..."
"Luo Yan, they, they..."
"You did your best."
"..."
