Female Novel
Chapter 171
The Merman, My Man by Black Velvet Chapter 171
“What’s wrong with…her?” I let out the words in shock, despite knowing they were nonsense.
My throat appeared to be blocked by a sponge, preventing me from crying or shouting. My thoughts
were preoccupied with the female pirate’s encounter in the merpeople’s pit. The thought of Jolin going
through the same ordeals drove me insane.
I squatted down, trembling. I wanted to touch Jolin’s face, but the handcuffs made it impossible. Peter
held me up. He tried to console me, but his hands shivered as he patted my shoulders. His eyes were
welling up with tears, and he exclaimed, “This is dreadful! We’re at a loss for what to do. She may
require disinfection, stitching, or other medical attention. Jack and I are at a loss for what to do. We
were imprisoned here. Jolin could die as a result of the infection. If she is not treated properly, she may
only have a few days to live. What kind of c*1prit did this to her? Were the soldiers to blame?”
“Stop it, stop it, Peter, ” I shut my eyes to stop him from continuing. I had secretly made up my mind. M
y voice trembled, but I said firmly, “I will think of a way to save Jolin, I swear.”
I kept repeating my promise. Jack looked at me with a heavy heart. He patted my shoulder gently and
let out a helpless sigh.
Then, Jack pulled Peter and me closer and whispered in a low voice, “I found a way to send a signal to
the Navy Department before being arrested by these people. If there’s no accident in between, they willnovelbin
find a way to rescue us when they receive the signal. Our primary focus now is to keep Jolin alive.
Don’t worry, Linda. They will not harm Peter and me. We have the things they want, so do you.“
“What?“
Jack looked into my eyes and whispered, “Have you met Dr. Willie before?“
“Yes, I did. You met him too?“ Dr. Willie was the first to discover Lemenland.
“Did he show you a picture with various grids in black and white?“
I suddenly realized something and said, “Yes, I suppose it is some passwords. I remember consulting
with him on communicating with the merpeople, but he said nothing to me and asked me to jot it down.
I didn’t know what it meant at that time. I thought he might be mad, as the rumors say. Have you seen
the picture?”
Jack looked around with vigilance and then whispered in an even softer voice, making sure only Peter
and I could hear. He quickly covered his lips to prevent Laura from reading them and said, “That is
indeed a password.” It’s Dr. Willie’s disk password. The disk has secrets that people outside want to
know. If they use this, they can get to the most important place on the Lemenland, the time portal. I
understand your disbelief, but this is not a science fiction film. It’s real. This includes the mystery of
ancient Greek antiquity’s disappearance. The mysteriously vanished antiquity is not buried beneath the
sea but in another dimension ! The true territory of the merpeople is in the time portal.”
He came to a halt and looked at my perplexed expression. ” Linda, whether you believe it or not, one of
Dr. Willie’s subordinates, whom the mermen abducted while sailing, has returned,” he said to me word
for word. He is your grandfather.
I opened my mouth wide in shock, “That’s impossible ! Dr. Wille clearly said all the crews were missing,
and they had been gone for decades. He even published a yellow notice in the newspaper to find them.
So how could he be my grandfather? My grandfather had always been by my side when I was young,
until the shipwreck… “
