Su Mingan turned around and became interested: "Story?"

"He said [this story must be heard by the first player, and the first player must tell you his thoughts]." The young man raised his hand: "I was forced to this point by him, not because I personally want to tell you a story -

-It is said that this is a story from his hometown that he carefully selected for you to listen to."

"……you say."

"[A long time ago, there was a boundless sea, and a family of mermaids lived in it...]" The young man took a breath and began to tell.

"[One day, the crew went to sea and the ship passed through that sea area.]"

"[The beautiful mermaid princess fell in love with the handsome captain. She confessed her love to him, but he rejected her.]"

"[The captain said that he will lead the crew to sail far away, to see further places, to more and bigger docks, and to bring gold, silver and jewelry back to his country. He cannot stop here.]"

"[But the mermaid princess said that she can give them the largest pearl on the seabed, the most beautiful coral, and precious treasures they have never seen before, so that they don't have to work hard anymore.]"

"[Tempted by the honor of promotion, the crew persuaded their captain: Stay, look at how beautiful the princess is.]"

Su Mingan laughed at this time.

He probably knows what kind of story this is.

The young man continued speaking, seemingly very seriously.

However, his tone was very dry, as if he was reciting the text word for word, and more of a helplessness when he was forced to tell a story, without that kind of emotional involvement:

"[The captain hesitated.]"

"[At this time, the princess said that she could allow them to return safely, give them the treasures on the seabed, and let his crew enjoy all the glory and wealth.]"

"[She can even pray to the sea witch and ask the sea witch to cast spells to protect their country - from now on, all ships passing here will have smooth sailing and will no longer suffer from wind and rain.]"

"[Looking at the eager eyes of the crew, the captain agreed for the sake of his country.]"

"[The ship was filled with precious treasures from the bottom of the sea, the crew sang and danced, their sails were raised, and they returned with countless laughter and laughter.]"

"[From then on, the country where they lived gradually prospered, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and everything flourished.]"

"[And the crew members living there also enjoyed countless glory and wealth, and lived happily ever after.]"

"[They are called great pioneers.]"

"[And their king used the jewels in exchange to be kind to the people, and became a wise king in the eyes of the people.]"

When the young man said this, his eyes were extremely calm.

The surveillance screen behind him lit up, and his cigarette was now burning to the end.

"My story is finished."

He exhaled, white smoke swirling in front of his eyes.

The mechanical ball suspended in the air retreated silently, and the entire corridor on the fourth floor fell silent.

Su Mingan moved slightly, and there was a harsh sound under his feet.

"Finished?" He said, "No."

"No, the story ends here." The young man looked at him seriously. "The owner of the story, please ask me to tell it to you, Burris. I hope to hear your thoughts after listening to it."

"It's not easy for you to be asked to tell me such a story."

"Entrusted by someone." The young man said, "Can you tell me what you think after listening to it, so that I can relay it to you? My doctor companion."

Su Mingan was silent for a moment.

The barrage rolled into one in the upper right corner, with people holding different opinions:

【...What does this mean? Tell a fairy tale specifically?】

[This story is not good, it has no climax, no turning point, no beginning and no end, zero points for composition!]

[The classic fairy tale love story of a mermaid and a crew member...but with some exchange of interests mixed in.]

[I seem to have heard of Burris's name...in the World Forum. It is said that he was a famous Romanian sculptor on Zhai Star before.]

[(What are you doing?) Instead of sleeping well and not exchanging clues, the two of them are discussing fairy tales. A gathering of Riddlers? 】

[What is this metaphor? I seem to vaguely understand...]

"The story is not finished yet." Su Ming'an said, "Maybe it's because the unfinished part of it no longer seems important."

The young man looked at him quietly, drawing a screen with his hand, as if recording his words.

"The captain in the story, his ending is no longer important." Su Mingan smiled, with a slight upward hook at the end of his words.

"...After all, everyone has been happy."

"Yes." The young man said, "Burris told me that if the first thing you pay attention to is [Captain], you can listen to the whole story."

He pulled the burned cigarette butt into the backpack compartment and told the unfinished story:

"[The handsome captain was left in that sea area, accompanying the mermaid princess.]"

"[But the young princess doesn't understand one thing.]"

"[The captain is a human being. Human beings need air, but humans cannot breathe in the sea.]"

"[The mermaid princess took the captain into the sea. The captain was struggling for life. He wanted to surface.]"

"[But the mermaid princess doesn't want him to go.]"

"[She pressed his head, pushed him into the water, and forced him not to escape.]"

"[Soon, the captain stopped struggling.]"

"[The captain drowned.]"

"[In his last moment, he was thinking about the big ship that sailed away safely, and the jewels on board that could change a country.]"

"[His crew became great pioneers, and his king became a wise king who will be famous throughout the ages.]"

"[But he was buried in the sea, and no one knew except the mermaid princess crying for him.]"

"[His crew buried their history of betraying the captain, disguised themselves as victors from the expedition, and became the objects of love among the people.]"

"[They are not ashamed of it.]"

…

"[Everyone is saying that only stories like this deserve to be recorded in history.]" The young man lit up his third cigarette, took a slow puff, and looked at him: "What are your thoughts after hearing this?"
