The Ancient Mermaid Transmigrated to the Interstellar

TL: Hua

Office building.

“Director.” Carrie knocked on the door. After getting permission, she opened the door and walked in. “I’m here to send Lance’s study report and his test results for general knowledge.”

“Well, thank you for your hard work. How was his study? Has anything gone wrong in the meantime?” Oddo took the few sheets of paper, did not immediately flip through them, but put them on the table and asked.

After thinking for a moment, Carrie shook her head. Although Lance’s learning speed is indeed amazing, it’s not something wrong.

If she had to say it…..

“Does it count that he’s too healthy and too lively?” Carrie said in a somewhat tangled and somewhat dazed way, “Lance took the initiative to talk to me today and helped me with spiritual counseling.”

After telling Oddo about the accident that happened today, Carrie thought about it and finally asked the question that she had been wondering about for a long time: “This isn’t the same as the precautions my seniors told me. Was I deceived?”

After hearing what she said, Oddo didn’t start talking immediately but flipped through the study report that Carrie handed in. It was thin, as there was nothing to be particularly documented.

It’s basically a certain day of the month, which lessons Lance studied in the morning, which lessons he studied in the afternoon, and which lessons he studied in the evening…

Why are you still studying at night?

30 lessons in one day?

Lance wouldn’t have self-taught himself to cram so many lessons in one day like most college students, right?

Oddo was so shocked that his beard stopped moving. He took out the communicator and began to check the assessment results sent to him by Carrie.

Full marks…

What kind of fish is this???

Carrie at the desk was still waiting for his answer and follow-up arrangements. Oddo quickly calmed down and passed the report card to His Majesty, who had reminded him before.

“I don’t think your colleagues have taught you wrong experiences. Our working atmosphere is still very good. The most important thing in choosing a keeper is to pass the test of character. You should be very clear about this.”

Oddo looked kindly at the new employee, who was worried that she might be marginalized, and comforted her, “I think it’s because Lance is too smart; he is different from other mermaids, and that’s why all that previous experience has run into problems with him.”

“You should be proud of him.”

On the way back, Oddo’s words still echoed in Carrie’s mind.

Well, Carrie sighed, with some self-blame and clarity in her heart.

She must admit that when she found that her predecessor’s experience could not be applied to herself, although Lance’s performance was all right and could even be said to be very good, she was still a bit flustered. At a certain moment, she was tempted to blame Lance for not playing cards according to common sense. It may have been an instinctive reaction when she found herself unable to follow the crowd.

But this is wrong; it is contrary to her professional requirements… Fortunately, she adjusted her mentality in time; otherwise, she would be too sorry for the well-behaved and sensible Lance.

After thinking it over, Carrie felt much more relaxed.

“Lance—” Recalling that Oddo said Lance could finish the content of mermaid habits tonight with his learning speed, Carrie accelerated her pace.

She took the initiative to apply for overtime work tonight, and planned to help Lance transfer to Area A before returning home after the course assessment this time.

Of course, it was under the condition that Oddo promised to double the overtime pay; otherwise, Lance would only be wronged for another night.

Sure enough, when she opened the door, Lance’s study progress had reached the third quarter. Had he been studying during the hour she went to see the director? This is too much work.

“After you finish this course, we can change the place. The room in Area A usually houses four or five little mermaids in a pool, but the space there will be much larger, five times that of this 50-meter pool. Oh, and the facilities there will be better. Toys and emergency medical equipment are also well prepared.”

“Then you will continue to study the history of the empire with other mermaids there. Those little mermaids don’t seem to love learning as much as you do, so maybe you will have to accommodate them when the time comes.”

When he found out that Carrie had come back, Ji Mingjiang’s third class had just ended. After seeing him suspend the class and turn to look over, Carrie excitedly told him about his future arrangements. She didn’t expect him to understand everything, but mainly wanted to convey her happy emotions.

The thought of immediately going to the A area there to see a bunch of jaws drop in amazement and maybe even share a room with Sasha made the corners of her mouth rise a lot.

The sense of satisfaction and happiness that this job brings to people is too much!

Ji Mingjiang only heard a few scattered words, but he figured out what they meant after some thought.

He raised his tail at Carrie, who had happiness written all over her face, but he wasn’t very excited in his heart; at most, he was a little curious.

Curious about the specific differences between the local mermaids here and him.

“Okay, keep studying. I’m here to accompany you.” After making sure that Lance was once again engaged in his learning, she took out her light brain from her bag.

Thanks to Mr. Oddo, although many rules have been established to protect the safety of the mermaid, staff are still allowed to play with the light brain, which communication authority has been turned off, provided that there are no problems with the mermaid.

Otherwise, if they spend 8 hours a day at work staring at the mermaid, they will go crazy sooner or later.

Ji Mingjiang glanced at her during the intermission of listening to the lesson, and then the corner of his mouth twitched.

That’s right, watching you attend classes and accompanying you to classes are both keeping you company, but the difference is quite big.

That being said, the one in Carrie’s hand is called a light brain, right? He remembered from the communication chapter in the general knowledge that it is equivalent to a mobile phone…he really wants to have one. When he’s able to go out and earn money, he’ll buy one for himself.

The screen in front of him was still playing some mind-boggling things and showing some eye-opening images, but Ji Mingjiang yawned in boredom, feeling like he was in a movie theater watching an epic movie full of boring plots.

So sleepy.

With a small dried fish in his mouth, he folded his hands in front of his chest, thinking with a blank expression.

The fish tail wrapped in tinfoil was bitten and dangled up and down around his mouth.

“! So cute!” Carrie, who looked up from the game to observe the situation of the mermaid, happened to see this scene. Today is another day to show off to her colleagues!

*

At 1:10 in the afternoon, in the study of the palace, Leiden was dealing with today’s government affairs, and Rowlett was next to him arranging the meeting for the next week.

In addition to the appointments that are scheduled, he has to make some extra time available in case an emergency arises.

For example, the impromptu appointment that Director Oddo added the same day last week.

Speaking of Oddo, Rowlett couldn’t help but think of the mermaid, and then couldn’t help worrying about Leiden’s mental state and wondering if he had changed his mind after that day…

“Ding, you have a new message.” An abrupt electronic sound rang out.

Rowlett was stunned for a moment. He put down the form in his hand and was about to check the communicator that he had set to shut down and put it on the shelf before he was stopped by Leiden.

“It’s my communicator ringing; you continue.”

The requirement to shut down the communicator in the study can only be restricted to anyone but him.

After all, the one who stays here most often is Rowlett, who has no real power now. The second is the head of the guard, who is occasionally called by him and stays for less than ten minutes.

The people who take the initiative to contact Leiden’s subordinate in the palace are either trying to bribe them or establish a connection. As for other possible reasons, they might want to ask when it is convenient for them to meet him or other personal matters. A brief shutdown won’t delay important things, and it can also prevent unwanted people from committing certain misdeeds.

As for him not being constricted by such rules, it is of course because, as the emperor of a country, Leiden needs to keep his communication unimpeded at all times so that he can receive urgent messages from the front line or other important officials directly to him.

After approving the documents in his hand, Leiden took a sip of water from the cup placed next to him and prepared to see who sent him the message. As far as he knew, there should be no disturbances in any area.

After turning on the communicator, his expression instantly became a little weird. It seemed to be shock and disbelief, but also to be a rare sight of satisfaction and appreciation.

“?” Rowlett, who had just finished arranging the day’s itinerary, looked up and saw Leiden’s strange expression.

“What’s the matter, Your Majesty? What news can show you this expression?”

After getting permission, Rowlett walked up to him and looked at the message interface.

“Ah, it’s the news from Director Oddo. So it’s the little mermaid’s results that came out…. with a perfect score?” This is indeed rare. Before Rowlett could say a few more words, Oddo sent some more pictures.

“A study report written by the keeper? Study 10 hours a day? Finished the general knowledge in four days and got a full score?”

For a moment, the only sound left in the study was the surprised voice of the chief steward. Then he began to persuade Leiden again.

“This mermaid is so powerful?! Your Majesty, are you really not going to think about it?”

Sure enough, the scheme is revealed in the end.

After continuing to observe, Leiden closed the chat interface expressionlessly, saying, “Impossible Rowlett. I just want to deal with government affairs properly. I don’t have time to play house with him.”

Rowlett didn’t try to persuade him any more, but looked thoughtfully at Leiden, who had a cold face.

So resolute… that’s even better!

After all, when the first emperor and the first empress officially met as political marriage parties, they were so determined to reject each other.

Then the two were inseparable for 150 years, and they both held each other’s little finger before they died, believing that they could meet again in the afterlife.

It’s not that His Majesty and that little mermaid will have this kind of relationship, because it’s too rare in the entire interstellar population. But the same applies to the relationship between the mermaid and the match!

The old chief steward temporarily let go and went back to the sidelines to start arranging the meeting. On the contrary, Leiden was a little unaccustomed to his premature giving up today and gave him a suspicious look.
