Chapter 048: “Isn’t this too perverted, Host?”

This chapter is translated by Hoenimochi, translation checked by Rin, and edited by Bluburry.

It was said there would be no rewards without risk.

However, due to various factors, Lu Yan finally bit the bullet and paid the fee to buy the entry ticket to the Mermaid Clubhouse — along the way, he marked the landlord as a suspicious person.

This ‘marking’ was also a privilege of the staff of the SpecOps Division. When they felt that a person/s they have come into contact with may be polluted, they could create a ‘mark’ and upload it to the system, and special staff would come to investigate later.

S City was a big city of debauchery and possessed the earliest financial market in the world. The businessmen of S City created countless schemes to get rich overnight. Naturally, there were countless places to drain one’s fortune.

Anyone could enjoy everything here as long as they had money to spend.

Therefore, it didn’t seem that incomprehensible that there was a “Mermaid Clubhouse,” where humans could appreciate Pollutants. 

What Lu Yan brought was a ferry ticket.

Whenever Director Hu talked about his family, other doctors in the operating room would always go along with the conversation with a smile.

Du Weiwei sighed, “After awakening, Director Hu’s mental state became a little abnormal. However, after analysis by the psychiatric evaluator, this abnormality was not considered aggressive or dangerous, so he was still accepted to join the SpecOps Division.”

A lot of Enlighteneds’ was mentally unstable, and it was not a joke. Tranquilizers and meds were things that most Enlighteneds needed to take with them on a daily basis.

Even someone as calm as Lu Yan had inevitably eaten a few tranquilizer mints at work.

Lu Yan was silent for a long time, “Okay, I see.”

On the morning of the 15th, Lu Yan arrived at the agreed port on time with a small suitcase.

He had considered whether to tell the SpecOps Division or the PDC, but right now, the treatment of Pollutants still seemed to be a grey area. The answer to the question of whether or not Pollutants have human rights: obviously they do not.

Therefore, Lu Yan simply reported his absence and set off alone.

After several rises in levels, he changed to a SpecOps Division mobile phone.

This kind of mobile phone could intelligently detect nearby pollution values ​​with one click and monitor its handler’s mutation value through Bluetooth. It had functions that included navigation, positioning, and customer service, which was much more convenient than using his previous watch. 

It was just a little expensive. It cost him 200 contribution points.

Early in the morning, the luxury cruise ship docked at the ferry port, with beautiful neon lights on the cabin displaying a beautiful mermaid pattern. At exactly 7 am‌, the cruise ship opened multiple entrances simultaneously.

To Lu Yan’s surprise, there were actually a lot of passengers boarding this cruise ship.

Hundreds of people, male and female, ages ranging from young to old, seemingly anyone could board so long as they paid.

Judging from their clothes, they were all from wealthy families. They carried more or less luxury goods, and some women even wore evening gowns, revealing their wealth and education from the tips of their hair to their designer shoes. It made Lu Yan, who dressed like a college student, look out of place.

After verifying the authenticity of the ticket, Lu Yan boarded the cruise ship without showing any extra documentation.

Because there was no need to spend the night on the ship, the cruise ship did not have guest rooms. The upper and lower floors were full of restaurants and entertainment facilities. Free for tourists.

It was no wonder that a ticket could be sold for a sky-high price of one million, and the demand often exceeded the supply in the market.

“The Mermaid Clubhouse should be quite profitable.” Lu Yan said to the System.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t have spent so much money on arranging and decorating it. Lu Yan even saw a golf course and a helipad parking bay along the way.

System, [There is quite a profit, with the elders of the black industry chain backing it up. After all, at a time like this when the social order has not completely collapsed, money is still very useful.]

[Oh, by the way, just to remind you— The security guards in the Mermaid Clubhouse are all Enlighteneds.]

Not all Enlightened joined the SpecOps Division. Some were free spirits by nature, unwilling to join, but were willing to be supervised, such as Zhou Qiming.

Some of them simply had a criminal record, or their mental state was erratic, and couldn’t pass the psychological evaluation process.

There would always be people who, after suddenly gaining power that put them above ordinary people, felt they should also gain privileges above the law.

For example, there are some who have awakened their Hypnotic ability and would go to hypnotize wealthy businessmen and female stars.

Another example was of an Enlightened who awakened a combat ability, but because he couldn’t control the violent emotions in his heart, he would go on to kill people to vent.  

Not only were such people ineligible to join the SpecOps Division. They were even on the internal wanted list, and they would be treated as Pollutants if one were to meet them.

Lu Yan was good-looking. Or rather, his facial features align perfectly, and his body’s proportions were extraordinarily perfect. Like a CG model dummy.

Therefore, even if he just stood on the deck to enjoy the breeze, wearing an ordinary white T-shirt and black shorts with a pair of sneakers, as common as any college student, countless pairs of prying eyes fell on him.

[Do you think being beautiful is a burden?] The System suddenly asked.

Lu Yan replied, “No. I know it is something that many people want.”

Although Lu Yan was occasionally troubled by it, in the process of growing up, he enjoyed the privileges brought by beautiful skin more.

The people around him were always gentler, and the elders were always kinder. Even when he went to the cafeteria to eat in college, the auntie would give him two more pieces of meat.

System, [But for Mermaids in the Mermaid Clubhouse, being beautiful is a burden.]

[Solemn warning to the host: Be careful of Mermaid-cons.]

After Lu Yan politely rejected the sixteenth person who came to strike up a conversation, the cruise ship finally sailed off into the pink sea.

All around, there were a lot of surprised exclamations, “The sea water in Mermaid Bay is really pink!”

The setting sun gave this pink sea a beautiful hue of rose-like gold.

As the salty and humid sea breezes blew in, the beautiful mermaids sang loudly from the reefs in the distance. From this distance, those on the cruise ship obviously weren’t able to make out the tune of the music, but it sounded melodious and heartwarming.

The Mermaids lounged on the rock edges, beautiful fish tales swirling the water below them as they sing. 

Lu Yan’s eyesights were sharp. When the ship got a little closer, he could even see the scales that lined the Mermaid’s belly. This was not a fake fish tail, but a real fish tail that grew from the lower body, and the scales were shining in the setting sun.

The Kingfish swam inside his body with a slight restlessness.

This was the real voice that belonged to the siren.

Many people were so fascinated by the song that they seemed to be reminded of the best memories in their lives, some even shedding tears of happiness as they recalled fond memories.

Lu Yan was no exception, but he was only lost in thought for a moment before he returned to his senses.

He turned on his phone and looked at the pollution value on it: 120.

There was no doubt that the Mermaid Clubhouse was a polluted area. The Mermaids’ singing on the reef were probably Pollutants too.

The only thing that puzzled Lu Yan was that these Mermaids were unrestrained, but they didn’t seem to be aggressive. There were already tourists who got off the ship earlier and drove over gleefully on tenders to take pictures with those beautiful Mermaids. 

From beginning to end, the Mermaids wore smiles with just the right curvature.

Lu Yan’s hand touched the knife under the loose hem of his T-shirt and felt a little more at ease.

The System said, [You know, the singing of these Pollutants does make people think of the best time in their lives.]

[I admit, I shouldn’t be peeking into your head at a time like this, but I am All-Knowing after all. Even if I just glanced at it, I can’t pretend to not see it… I thought that I would see your transcript of 727 points in the college entrance examination, or how you successfully became the chief surgeon of the First People’s Hospital in K City. No matter how bad it was, it might’ve even  been you spending your birthday with your mother when you were a child.]

The System faintly sighed, [But I really didn’t expect that what I saw was actually that dragon waving its tail towards you… Isn’t this too perverted, Host?]

Lu Yan replied expressionlessly, “Shut up.”
