Chapter 869: Human Identity

Sihwa was usually afraid of Fina––not because of its strength, but because of her character. So, even after they made up, it remained the same. If Zhang Zian were to say the same words as Fina, Sihwa would definitely roll her eyes and give sarcastic remarks, but when she faced Fina’s stern lecture, she wouldn’t even think about refuting.

Fina sat by the door and stared majestically at Sihwa. Even though Fina wasn’t as tall as her, it felt as if Fina was looking at her from above.

“In the eyes of the world, that woman from earlier is a weak person who deserves sympathy. It is unfortunate that she got dumped by her boyfriend after being diagnosed with diabetes, but if she did not meet that man, then would she not have been diagnosed with diabetes?” Fina asked.

Zhang Zian answered, “She would probably still be diagnosed with diabetes.”

“So, all of you would not sympathize as much in that situation?” Fina continued to ask.

“About that…” Zhang Zian gave it some thought and said, “Although there would still be sympathy, many people in the world are suffering from illnesses that are much more severe than hers. Type I diabetes isn’t that major when compared to the rest of them… so my sympathy for her would be reduced, as well.”

“So, all of you are only sympathetic because she’s been dumped by a man, and not because of her own condition,” Fina concluded.

Zhang Zian wanted to disagree, but he wasn’t able to think of a supporting reason. Objectively speaking, Fina was right.

Fina remained silent for a short while. “This queen is not denying the existence of love, but have you thought about it? In the first place, why were you born into this world? Was it just to look for a prince charming and marry him? If that is the case, then your existence is really cheap.”

Fina was only speaking her thoughts, but somehow, the word “Prince Charming” struck Sihwa hard in her heart, causing it to tremble violently.

Fina proudly raised her head. “This queen is proud to be born a cat. I have never thought of becoming human… This queen’s body, hair, eyes, and claws are all gifts from the heavens, and this queen is proud of them all! But what about you? Why do you feel that it would be good to have legs? Just so you can do a split for your oppa? Do you really like legs that much?”

Sihwa stared at her healthy, slender fishtail. Indeed, she had thought that it would be good if she had legs. If she had legs, she could go wherever she wanted to go, and she could also ride in a car, go on a cruise, and take a plane, just like humans did. But without legs, she couldn’t do any of those things…

“If I had legs, I could do whatever I wanted, I could go wherever I wanted, and I could even take a plane to Korea to meet oppa!” Sihwa let out her thoughts.

Fina’s eyes were filled with ridicule, as if it was looking at an idiot. “You think that all you need are legs to take a plane?”

“Of course I also need money for the plane ticket, but I have money. I’ve already earned a lot of money from all the presents given to me by my audience in the broadcast channel!” Sihwa added.

“Fine. So you think that you’re able to take a plane with just legs and money?” The sarcasm in Fina’s tone did not get any milder. It said to Zhang Zian, “Tell her, what else does she need?”

“You need an identification document.” Zhang Zian opened his wallet and took out his identification card that had his picture on it for Sihwa to see. “Otherwise, you won’t be able to buy a ticket or get on a plane.”

Sihwa suddenly recalled that Zhang Zian had used his own identification card to apply for her phone card. He had mentioned that one couldn’t make the application without an identification card. It was such a small card… was it really so important?

“How do I make an identification card?” she asked anxiously. “I want one too!”

“This… I’m afraid you can’t make one,” Zhang Zian said regrettably. “Only a Chinese citizen born in China can make a China identification card… It’s the same in almost every other country.”

He added, “Though there might be some other people with special capabilities… They might be able to make one through special connections. Sadly, I don’t have such a capability and I don’t know anyone with such a capability.”

Before Sihwa could even get disappointed, she heard Fina highlight, “Chinese person.”

Fina emphasized the word “person” and the ridicule in her eyes now carried a hint of pity, as if to say, “Do you still not understand?”

Sihwa blinked her eyes. She looked at Fina, then looked at Zhang Zian, only to realize that Zhang Zian could not bear it any longer and had already shifted his glance away.

She seemed to understand.

The handicapped people that passed by downstairs didn’t t have legs, or their legs couldn’t move, but why were they still able to go wherever they wanted?

Sihwa has been pondering about that question.

In the end, it wasn’t because of their legs––it was simply because they were humans.

They were humans; they had their own identification documents; they could apply for their own phone card; they could go to school; they could work; they could keep pets; and they could go wherever they wanted…

So, what she was envious about wasn’t the legs, but the identity of a human?

Sihwa had such thoughts because she was different from the other elfins. Appearance-wise, the only difference she had from humans were the legs.

“If you really want an identification card, or to say, if you really want to be human, this queen has a solution,” Fina said with a provocative tone. “It just depends on whether or not you are willing to make the sacrifice.”

Zhang Zian looked at Fina suspiciously, wondering if it had learned how to bluff from him. Sihwa was an elfin––a mermaid with a long fishtail––even if her upper body was no different from a human’s, she was still not a human. How was it possible for her to hold an identification card? How could she be human? If he brought her to the immigration office, as long as the immigration officer wasn’t blind, there was no way he would approve her application, right?

Although Sihwa did not believe her, she still asked with surprise and desire, “What solution? Fina, quick––tell me!”

“It is actually very simple. This queen is really surprised that none of you have thought of this solution––it’s probably because none of you are able to think out of the box,” Fina scornfully said.

Sihwa still didn’t understand, and neither did Zhang Zian too. They were both waiting for Fina to continue.

Fina jumped up to the side of the fish tank. It looked down, staring at the light blue fishtail.

“Cut it,” Fina said.

“Ga?”

“Meow, meow, meow? Your Highness, are you finally willing to do it? This one is willing to assist you!”

Ridiculous words could be heard coming from outside the bathroom, but Zhang Zian and Sihwa were not bothered by them. Fina immediately continued with words that were even more shocking.

“Since you want to be human so much, cut yourself from the waist and give up your fishtail forever. Although you’ll become a handicap, no one could pick anything out from just your appearance. You can then use special methods to apply for an identification card, or even spend some money to buy one. That way, you can satisfy your wish of becoming human. But, you have to consider this––is your oppa really worth you doing all this for?”

Zhang Zian felt that Fina had changed into another cat. It was filled with sly temptations, just like… those commonly seen witches in fairy tales.
