The Ancient Mermaid Transmigrated to the Interstellar

TL: Hua

“Good—great—, today Little Lance also swam back and forth for two rounds!”

Ji Mingjiang had just finished today’s morning activities when he heard Carrie’s flattering praise.

After two days, he has gotten used to Carrie’s strange way of speaking and his new name: Lance.

Because his tail is blue, the whole person—no, the whole fish—has the same unyielding spirit. After discussing this with Oddo, Carrie named him Lance1兰 [lán]: Orchid, 赛 [sài]: Competitive. and wrote it in his file.

Ji Mingjiang, who lost his real name: Whatever, he will change it back sooner or later.

He had previously wondered why this girl who was fine when picking him up suddenly changed her way of speaking. It wasn’t until one day that Carrie didn’t have time to take off his translator, and it happened that Carrie’s colleague came to her for a talk.

Carrie: “It’s a new way of communicating that I have discovered. Every time I drag out my voice to coax Lance, he will look much better!”

Ji Mingjiang, who didn’t feel any change in his behavior before and after: ? Don’t pass on the wrong method, Ms. Carrie!

Although he doesn’t agree with this so-called new discovery, because Carrie is indeed taking very good care of him, Ji Mingjiang doesn’t mind cooperating with her when he has nothing to do.

After all, in his previous life, he was very concerned about the mental state of his employees, and in this life, although Carrie isn’t one of his subordinates, she’s still a worker serving him. It is appropriate to take care of her emotions.

Thinking of this, Ji Mingjiang shook his tail at her and then closed his ear fins, blocking Carrie’s exclamation from his ears.

Glancing at the screen on the wall next to him, Ji Mingjiang sighed.

Since he was sent back after the physical examination that day, he had very little alone time. Carrie was by his side almost all the time, and he had no chance to open those few study sections at all.

But this bracelet was given to him, so it can’t be just a decoration, right? Why haven’t you mentioned class…

After being assigned as Lance’s caregiver, nearly three-quarters of Carrie’s 8-hour working time was spent in Lance’s room.

She is a fresh graduate from the Capital University of Nursing Care and was accepted by the Mermaid Foster Center soon after she submitted her resume because her bestialization is a lop-eared rabbit. They have a relatively strong affinity and a relatively gentle personality. The probationary period just ended two days ago, which also means that she can become an official keeper to take care of those cute little mermaids.

Before officially starting work, Carrie was still a little worried.

She heard from the seniors here that although the mermaids are beautiful and cute, the primary beastmen, a fantasy breed, have a temper that is too spoiled and are difficult to coax.

It’s not uncommon for them to start crying at the drop of a hat, lose their appetite, and get depressed. The keepers usually happily complain that these little guys are little devils in angel skin.

Those words made her very worried for a while. On one hand, she was worried that her wages would be deducted if she didn’t take good care of them. On the other hand, she was really worried that she would make the mermaid suffer if she couldn’t handle the situation well.

but now……

No problem at all!

Her family’s little mermaid is actively eating, exercising, and sleeping. He usually responds to her words even without wearing a translator.

He is simply a 100% pure angel!

Because the confidentiality agreement stipulates that the mermaid’s specific physical condition cannot be disclosed, Carrie couldn’t brag to her best friend, but she can show off her experience to her colleagues every day and is satisfied to receive envious and jealous looks from all over the room.

She even made a great friend because of it.

“Carrie, go to the office building. Mr. Oddo is looking for you.”

“Ah, yes, yes.” Just as she was about to tell about her experience today, Oddo’s secretary suddenly stopped her.

Because the work has been going well these past few days, Carrie’s spirit is still very relaxed, completely free of the apprehension and nervousness that others feel when they talk to their superior alone.

She winked back at the worried Qin Sasha and waved her hand, “I’ll go see what the director wants from me first, and I’ll tell you about Lany when I get back.”

Ah, she seems to have brought this habit of using a coaxing tone when communicating with her colleagues…

After walking for a while, Carrie realized what she had just said belatedly.

Help, it’s so embarrassing, and I’m sure Sasha will make fun of me when I go back!

Carrie knocked on the door of Oddos’s office in a lifeless manner. Her coaxing tone just now repeated itself in her mind like an infinite loop.

“I called you today…”

“?”

Seeing Carrie’s dejected look, Oddo couldn’t understand what was going on. Could it be that a girl who just graduated would reflexively feel nervous when facing an old boss like him?

“Well, Carrie, you can relax; you’ve done a good job lately; I’m not calling you for a lecture.” He said it with some confusion.

Oddo thinks he isn’t such a serious person. He obviously often chats with the keepers on the communicator, and he can pick up the trendy memes very well. Could it be that something happened to Lance in just half a day?

With that in mind, he also asked.

Carrie found out that Oddo had misunderstood and quickly explained: “No! Lance is doing well—eating well, sleeping well, and playing well! He is a very healthy and peaceful mermaid.”

At the end of the sentence, Carrie smiled softly, and sometimes she even had the illusion that she was being coaxed by this child in reverse.

“That’s good.” Oddo breathed a sigh of relief; in a few days, he will be able to enter the second stage His Majesty mentioned.

“Lance can start learning those courses this afternoon. Put the general knowledge and mermaid habits up front. You can look at the arrangement and try to speed it up according to his acceptance. After learning these two courses, he will be arranged to study the history of the Empire with other mermaids in area A.”

Seeing Carrie’s nervous look, Oddo quickly added: “As a keeper, you will follow him there, don’t worry.”

“Okay, thank you, Director.” Carrie heaved a sigh of relief and left the room after Oddos gesture.

After confirming that Carrie had left, Oddo took out the communicator.

“Your Majesty, it’s me.”

“Yes, everything is normal these few days, and the formal class will start this afternoon.”

“Send you a copy of the course assessment results? OK.”

“…”

On the way back to the foster place, Carrie turned a corner and went to the logistics department to get a box of dried fried fish. This was what Qin Sasha suggested to her after hearing that the little mermaid she was in charge of was about to start learning.

“Ah, is Lance going to start learning lessons so soon? Amazing!”

At that time, Qin Shasha was surprised and suggested that she could come and ask for a box of small snacks as a reward, “Every time he finishes a lesson, you can give the mermaid a small dried fish. This kind of dried fish is specially made. It tastes good and is very healthy. If the mermaids are resistant to learning, it can appease them to a certain extent.”

Although Carrie didn’t think Lance would have any problems with this matter, she still came to pick up a box just in case. The person in charge of the logistics department told her that the box was basically a month’s supply and asked her not to feed him too many at once.

Carrie nodded seriously.

After coming out of the logistics department, Carrie took today’s small whitebait from the kitchen of the foster department. Because Lance didn’t like others to help him with food, only his small whitebait was intact without deboning.

“Hi Carrie.” The man in the kitchen handed her the plate on the side, and after glancing at the box in her hand, he also praised, “Is Lance going to start studying? That’s great! Remember to keep an eye on his mood when he’s studying.”

Carrie nodded seriously again.

Ah, this seems to be the joy of raising a child who is a top student… She showed a happy smile and thought about it in a trance.

“Lance! Let’s eat!” Finally welcoming a crowd of envious and worried eyes back to the D area, under the double insurance of fingerprint and iris recognition, the heavy door slowly opened. At a glance, Carrie spotted Lance, who was sitting idly by himself.

Putting the translator on his ear again, she coaxed softly: “We will start studying after dinner. I brought you dried fish. All the mermaids who have eaten it said it was delicious. ”

The words that the translator can translate are limited, but fortunately, the word “learning” is still within its translation range. After hearing this, Ji Mingjiang finally felt relieved.

After cleanly finishing the small white bait, Ji Mingjiang quickly pushed the dishes aside, exposing the bracelet on his wrist, and quietly watched as Carrie put the dishes into the automatic cleaning box.

Sure enough, after tidying up, Carrie saw his wrist resting on the edge of the pool. She quickly walked a few steps and squatted in front of him. Seeing how Ji Mingjiang was wearing earbuds, she gestured word by word and said, “Yes . . . put your finger in this groove first…”

The two screens turned on at the same time, and the picture Ji Mingjiang saw a few days ago appeared before his eyes again.

Carrie is still working hard to teach him: “The first thing we need to learn is the column of general knowledge and the column of mermaid habits. The history of the empire, which is a bit boring, will be put at the back.”

With that said, she tapped the topmost section of general knowledge.

? What, he didn’t get to choose himself? Ji Mingjiang saw the more childish magic wand and chibi mermaid appear on the screen, and his face became a little stiff for a moment.

After repeating it several times, Carrie asked nervously, “Lance, have you learned it yet?”

Ji Mingjiang looked at her and finally nodded silently.

Forget it; at worst, he would push the first two courses faster, and it would be even worse if he didn’t cooperate and caused his study time to be delayed.

Seeing that he didn’t have any repulsive expression, Carrie breathed a sigh of relief. After tapping on the first lesson of general knowledge, she said, “Then I’ll go and send back the dishes that have been cleaned up. You can watch them first.”

Her colleagues also reminded her that the general knowledge is more lively than the mermaid habits and empire history videos, and the content is easier to understand, making it the easiest of the three to get started. Once the little mermaids have a sense of the lessons, they can move on to show them other lessons.

Watching Carrie close the door and leave, Ji Mingjiang hesitated for a while, but still didn’t change classes by himself.

“You have to watch it sooner or later. It’s time to relax after dinner.” He comforted himself in a low voice and turned his gaze to the screen.

…

[General Knowledge’s Small Classroom Section I: Diet (1)]

On the screen, the blue-haired and blue-tailed chibi mermaid hopped on its tail and waved its magic wand, conjuring four kinds of food in front of it.

An immature mermaid’s voice sounded, “This red round fruit is a tomato; it…”

After discovering that the voice was probably dubbed by a mermaid and that he couldn’t learn some interstellar language from it, Ji Mingjiang peacefully closed his eyes. The whole fish stood upright in the middle of the swimming pool as if he had lost his dream.

This video can’t even be fast-forwarded.

Ahhh! ! ! Who will save him! ! !

The author has something to say:

Leiden: Give me a report card.

Rowlett: Oh oh oh, is Your Majesty planning to get used to the role of father in advance? Although it’s a little different from what I thought, it’s not impossible. I have a little bit of parenting experience, which I summed up when I took you with me before. Do you want to…

Leiden: ?
