High-Class Fish

788 Words
After being nibbled several times, Wen Xuan withdrew his slightly ticklish finger, leaning down to observe the little fish in the tank. It seemed to enjoy biting things; was it going through a teething phase? Some fish species do go through similar stages during their growth, and it's hard to say for a mixed-breed fish like this one. Due to the man's posture and the angle from which the fish was looking up from the water, the little yellow fish slightly opened its mouth, entranced by the strong chest muscles revealed by the man's open collar, as well as the two points barely visible beneath his clothing... (﹃) At that moment, the man in the white coat rudely interrupted the rare beautiful scene, saying, "In this recent attack, there were no survivors. The guy you fought with fell dead on the spot, and the others who were still alive were secretly dealt with in the hospital. Now they're all lying in the morgue, and they want me to perform autopsies..." "Are they really asking a pet doctor to examine the killer's body?" Wen Xuan wiped the water droplets off his fingertips, turned, and walked to the sofa, pouring some hot water for the guest who was eagerly placing the most expensive tea leaves into his cup. The little yellow fish glared at the white-coated man, who was stealing its owner's attention. Did he know how good the atmosphere was just a moment ago? They were about to see something special! The white-coated man ignored the glaring little fish and immediately straightened up, his expression turning serious as he lowered his voice. "The severity of this situation is likely beyond our imagination. The military normally wouldn't disturb me, but clearly, they're desperate now." The little yellow fish wagged its tail, moving closer to the edge of the tank to see better. It turned out that the white-coated man had such a serious side. Wen Xuan remained silent, sipping his hot tea from the celadon cup, but his gaze was fixed on the stack of documents on the table. "In any case, they will definitely come again," the white-coated man said gravely. "Next time, it might be the big guys." He lifted his thumb, which still had half a grain of rice stuck to it. The little yellow fish disdainfully hoped he wouldn't put his hand in its fish tank; it must be so dirty. Wen Xuan glanced at him. "It's lucky this time that the chip wasn't stolen. The information inside must not be leaked." "It seems you aren't underestimating the situation either," the white-coated man nodded. He seemed to think of something and frowned, raising his hand to loosen his tightly fastened collar, unbuttoning a few buttons. The little yellow fish watched, unimpressed, rolling its eyes. His figure looked so scrawny; without clothes, he surely had no substance at all. There was absolutely nothing to look at. ╮(╯▽╰)╭ "Does that thing really have to stay with you?" the white-coated man asked, a hint of confusion in his tone. "There are certainly safer places in the military..." Only then did the little fish feel that the other party had said something sensible. It quickly nodded in agreement from the tank, thinking that since the location had already been exposed, what was the point of keeping it? They had to transfer the risk, dear! "It's just for temporary safekeeping," Wen Xuan said, his long fingers wrapped around the pale blue cup, his skin appearing smooth and jade-like. "But you've already been discovered. Do you really want to keep it?" The white-coated man looked at his friend, who appeared calm and unbothered, even more puzzled. Yes, yes, that's exactly it! The little yellow fish wished it could leap onto the white-coated man's body; their hearts were now closely connected. "The most dangerous place is often the safest place," Wen Xuan said, rubbing his temples as he quoted a timeless adage. While that statement wasn't wrong... It shouldn't be applied to oneself! qaq The little yellow fish didn't think that taking risks would be better than simply staying away from danger. "Be careful in everything. If anything happens, feel free to find me," the white-coated man said, unable to persuade him further. He didn't understand the military's considerations, but he was skilled at treating injuries, and he didn't want to be called in one day to dissect his friend's body. "Thank you, I understand," Wen Xuan replied naturally, nonchalantly pouring more hot water for himself, watching the tea leaves float and sink in the celadon cup, wondering if the little fish would also like tea. Every time he brewed it, the fish would excitedly watch from the side
