Chapter 693: All is Quiet

Chapter 693: Chapter 693: All is Quiet

“Everyone, quiet down.” Shen Mo spoke calmly, “I led you here to visit Mr. Chang, not to fight or argue. If you want to do that, leave.”

Ya Chaohui lowered his head, apologizing quickly: “…I’m sorry.”

Tan Xiao gave him a displeased glare, humming loudly in response.

The sound of high heels echoed from outside the room. Shen Mo was indifferent, assuming it was just a passing staff member.

He said, “Even though he seems healthy now, things are still not the same as before. We’ll wait until all the medical test results for Mr. Chang are out and then decide what to do next.”

Then he turned to Chang Weicai, asking, “How do you feel? Is there any difference compared to before?”

“Well…” Mr. Chang, looking a bit troubled, touched the fish scales on his arm, “If it gets too dry, some areas will itch, which is a bit uncomfortable…”

Tan Xiao looked at Chang Weicai with a straight face, “Mr. Chang, you’ve turned into a fish! Is there anything you feel like eating? Earthworms?”

“Tan Xiao, stop teasing,” Shen Mo frowned in disapproval.

“I’m not,” Tan Xiao replied seriously, “If Mr. Chang’s diet has changed, we would need to prepare it ahead of time. He won’t be able to eat at the restaurant anymore!”

“About food… I don’t feel any difference.” Mr. Chang responded with a bitter smile, “Maybe it’s because it hasn’t been long since my transformation. I will keep an eye on it.”

Shen Mo asked, “The two people who left with Weiwei, do they know about your transformation?”

“I don’t think so…” Mr. Chang hesitated, “Everyone was so happy to have escaped from the maze that they probably didn’t notice me. And I was wearing long sleeves and pants, so most of me was covered up.”

“But what about your neck…” Tan Xiao extended two fingers, lifting up the thin membrane on Chang Weicai’s neck, his expression troubled, “This can’t be covered…”

Mr. Chang looked embarrassed. He quickly pulled the keratin back down, tucking it all back into his collar, just like stuffing a handkerchief there, “…I can use a scarf to cover it…”

Everyone watched him in silence.

The scales and fins on his body could be ignored as they were covered by his clothes, but this feature on his neck made Mr. Chang stand out with an unusual trait. It was hard to imagine what he could encounter if he insisted on living in the Human World with such an appearance…

It was hard to imagine what Mr. Chang would have to face.

Shen Mo was silent for a while before he spoke again, “Mr. Chang, you should stay in your room for now. Try not to go out until the medical check results come out.”

“Understood.” Mr. Chang nodded, his face carrying a helpless yet gentle smile, “In my current state, it’s really not suitable to go outside. Thank you for your concern.”

Tan Xiao wanted to suggest that staying there would be too boring and that it might be better to go to the doll house, but sensing the presence of an outsider, he held his tongue, only giving Mr. Chang a meaningful look.

Mr. Chang wasn’t able to understand Tan Xiao’s hint.

“You should rest now. We’ll come over if there is anything else,” said Shen Mo, leading everyone out of the room.

Outside the room, Shen Mo took Chu Huaijin aside, leaving Tan Xiao and Ya Chaohui behind, “If it’s possible, can we check Mr. Chang’s blood sample for toxicity?”

Chu Huaijin was taken aback, “You mean…”

“Just in case,” Shen Mo stated lightly, “According to their descriptions, the mucus secreted by mermaids is infectious. But since Mr. Chang has already undergone the labyrinth transformation, he might be safe.”

Chu Huaijin, after listening, nodded earnestly, “Your suggestion is very valid. I will make sure that they perform thorough testing. With the electricity back up, most of the equipment can be used and we should get the results quickly.”

Upon saying this, he paused for a second, speaking earnestly, “But… for safety, I may arrange for guards to be stationed near Mr. Chang. I hope you can understand.”
