Chapter 236 Can You Help Me?
"Commander, what can I do for you, meow?"
Su Xin pulled Ming Miao to sit on the sofa. The other ship girls saw that the young commander seemed to have something to announce, so they all came over and the five of them formed a small circle around the coffee table.
"Actually, I came out this time to hand over the Purifier's information to Ms. Yubari, and by the way, I wanted to ask her to help me replenish my firepower."
The ship girls nodded, they all knew all these things. The commander usually wouldn't hide anything from them. He would basically tell them what he wanted to say and mention whatever he wanted to say, so everyone had some idea about the mission of this trip.
"But I can't just give her the information directly, because it would be hard to explain the source." Su Xin was extremely distressed. "I originally wanted to get in touch with her for a while, then pretend to accidentally see the drawings on the ground, and then slowly ask her about it.
Two sentences. "
"But now we can no longer meet with Yubari often." Yixian softly pointed out the problem.
Su Xin nodded, "So I thought about it for a long time and only came up with one solution."
She looked at Ming Miao, who looked confused, and said, "That's you."
"......Huh?" Ming Miao pointed at herself in a daze, "Me...me?"
"Yeah, after all, you are the only one in our port area who is familiar with these things. Not only can you recycle resources from the Siren ship, but you can also build equipment for the ship girls. It can be said that you are the most suitable candidate."
When Ming Miao heard this, his originally hesitant heart was immediately filled with praise from the little commander.
This commander is only good at coaxing children. When will she be able to praise an adult? Therefore, Ming Miao was extremely satisfied when she heard this. In addition, Su Xin would also pay for the rent of her shop, so she agreed without much consideration.
down.
"Okay, what do you need me to do, meow?"
Su Xin took out the document and handed it to Ming Miao. After she looked through it, she asked her, "Do you understand it?"
"Hmm... I understand it but not completely, meow." Mingwei frowned, "It lists all the data of this... special ship girl. It should be very simple to make it, meow."
"But it's common knowledge that shipgirls come from construction equipment. This information...is already a new path, nya."
Su Xin, who couldn't understand the material, suddenly realized that this matter was actually easy to solve. "Then can you find a chance to remind Teacher Yuzhang?"
"Hmm... Sure, I'll go ask you how to make your equipment, and then I'll mention it when I get a chance, meow~"
Su Xin heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this, and sincerely thanked the profiteer who was very serious about his business, "Thank you, then I will go and help you book a shop now, so as not to delay your business tomorrow."
"Wuhu~" Ming Miao pounced and hugged the little rich woman, "Thank you, Commander Miao~"
"Um... No, you're welcome." The young commander was very good at catching the flying pounce. After thinking for a while, he added, "Oh, by the way, there is one more thing."
"Well, go ahead and tell me, meow!"
"It's hard to explain where the money in the virtual port comes from. I just discovered that your business is so good. Can you... tell others that all the money was given to me by you?"
Ming Miao, who loves watching videos in her spare time, was stunned. "So...so...I·support·me?"
Yixian and Su Xin, who understood the joke, also laughed, "That's not wrong."
Of course Ming Miao agreed to this matter. Anyway, she didn't have to spend any money, and she was super proud to tell others about it. Supporting the commander was something that many ship girls in other places secretly wanted to do, and she achieved it.
It became.
Yixian saw that the matter was almost over, so she stood up and straightened her cheongsam, "Then Susu and I will go out and prepare the shop together."
Su Xin nodded, looked at Yixian and reminded her, "Sister Yixian, don't you need to change clothes?"
"Ah... I have sewn the buttons on your shirt." Yixian frowned in distress, "But what if they break again... What should I do?"
"But didn't your sister say that if you dress like this, many people will come to see you?"
"That was when I was alone." Yixian patted Su Xin's head. "Now that my commander is with me, I don't think there will be such a problem."
Su Xin was very happy to hear this, and felt satisfied that she could be of some use, "Then let's go."
Mingmiao watched the two of them leave the door, then frowned and turned to look at Xianghe, "Commander...are you too self-deprecating, meow..."
"Well... take your time. We can always teach her a lesson... this is what we should do."
Yixian took Su Xin for a stroll on the road, "Speaking of which...what kind of shop does Su Su want to find?"
"Well... Actually, I don't know either." Su Xin let Yixian use a hand that was slightly bigger than hers to wrap around her little fist. "Let's find a place with a bigger space? Otherwise, it may not be able to accommodate so many people."
Yixian nodded when he heard this, but his mind was attracted by the slightly cool fist in his palm.
The temperature in June was already approaching that of summer, but the body temperature of the people around him was still relatively low, which made Yixian feel distressed. He secretly decided to go back and make more nourishing meals to warm up the little commander.
The young commander didn't think too much about it. Since she had undergone the transformation into a ship girl, her physique would only make her feel uncomfortable during her menstrual period. At other times, she would feel cold and there was no other feeling.
The two of them walked around and finally decided to book a shop in a shopping mall about 20 minutes away from home.
The mall was recently opened, so there are not many people and the place is large. Since it is not located on a commercial street, the price is not that expensive. It’s just that the lease is only for one month, so the negotiations were not going smoothly.
Su Xin revealed her identity as the commander and repeatedly assured that she was not there to cause trouble. She wanted to do business and sell things properly. If the mall's property was lost, she would compensate according to the price. Only then did she successfully sign a one-month contract.
The rented shop is not small in size, as big as the space of Haidilao in the mall in the previous life. Now it looks empty because it is not decorated.
However, Su Xin didn't think Ming Miao needed any decoration to sell things. His street stall business could be so popular that it caused traffic jams. It would probably be fine to put a counter here and leave all other places empty.
After resolving the issues with data and equipment, and dealing with the complaint, Su Xin suddenly relaxed and decided to take Yixian for a good stroll.
The two of them were like the Donghuang sisters. They spent a long time walking back from the mall and bought food, drinks, toys and other things on the way. This made Yixian, who rarely went out, very happy.
Of course, they also encountered many students who wanted to salvage the ship. Without exception, they all thought that Yixian was playing with an unknown destroyer, so they vied with each other to extend olive branches. In the end, they all made the wrong judgment and returned empty-handed.
The young commander introduced things to Yixian while they were walking around, saying that the shops in that place had been renovated, the shop over here used to be a milk tea shop, and the noodle shop over there was still open.
Yixian listened to Su Xin's introduction with a smile. Although they were all simple and not very interesting memories, Yixian still listened with great interest and nodded in response from time to time.
She held the little commander's slightly cold paws and fed Su Xin the red bean cakes she made at home from time to time. The two spent a relaxing and pleasant time together.
But when they were about to go up to the apartment building, Su Xin and Yixian discovered that there seemed to be a little tail following them.
The two looked at each other without saying anything. After getting on the elevator, they carefully looked at the child standing in the corner with his head down, who seemed a little frightened.
With tangled white hair and a dirty cloak, his small body was holding a patterned hat. He hung his head and said nothing, just huddled in a corner of the elevator without moving.
Su Xin didn't see the face or the ship's outfit, so she couldn't tell if it was a human or a ship girl. However, most normal people don't have such pure white hair, so it's most likely a ship girl. She didn't know if it was a destroyer or something else.
The two still didn't have the heart to speak, as they always felt that they would scare each other. They were silent in the elevator for a long time. When they reached the floor where the suite was, the two looked at each other, and Yixian took out a small bag of food and placed it on the ground.
The other party shivered and didn't move.
Yixian pursed his lips and walked out with Su Xin. He glanced at the elevator that was about to close, and then he heard a crisp "bang" and the elevator door opened again.
The little person inside was running over with a bag in his hand and covering his forehead. After a moment's silence, he raised his head, revealing a pale, tender little face.
"Can you...can you...help me?"
Chapter 237 Little Zeppelin comes to my house (updated the portrait, just refresh
"Eat slowly, eat slowly, don't choke..."
Yixian helplessly looked at the little girl who was too busy eating to respond, sighed, got up and sat back on the sofa, staring at the little girl in a daze with the others.
She threw the hat with silver decorative patterns aside. Her long, tangled hair, which was covered with dust, fell to one side, revealing her not-so-clean little face and her clear, crystal red eyes.
This is the white-haired, red-eyed special attack character from Donghuang!
Shokaku propped up his chin and observed carefully, "It looks like this is not our Sakura Empire's child."
Yixian couldn't tell either, so he could only guess based on the faction. "Which destroyer is this? Judging from the outfit...does it look like it belongs to Iron Blood? Or White Eagle?"
Ruyue was very happy. She felt that she had made a new good friend, so she asked Su Xin excitedly, "Commander, Commander, is she... is she going to join our port? Ru... is Ruyue going to have a new friend?"
Su Xin touched Ruyue's head and denied it for the time being, "Not necessarily. She just encountered some difficulties and wants us to help her."
"Well... but this doesn't prevent Ruyue from making friends with her." The little commander knew the essence of coaxing children, and with just a few words he made Ruyue, who was feeling quite disappointed, happy.
The five people just watched the little girl wolfing down the food, talking to each other from time to time. After she finished swallowing the fourth plate of fried rice that Yixian had added for her, they breathed a sigh of relief and sat on the ground rubbing their stomachs.
"Are you full?" Su Xin looked at the little girl who looked satisfied but suddenly frowned when she heard her voice, and smiled helplessly, "Or do you need another helping?"
"Um... no... no, thank you..."
"It's okay, then... Count Zeppelin? What do you mean by helping you?"
"Huh?" Little Zeppelin looked very surprised, "You know me?"
Commander Su Xiao said nonsense: "Well... I guessed."
The ship girls were no longer surprised by this, as their little commander had never let them down when it came to recognizing ship girls.
Rather, they were really surprised that this little girl, who was similar in size to Ruyue, could actually be an iron-blooded aircraft carrier.
"Is that so... Then you are quite smart." Little Zeppelin was very happy that someone recognized him for the first time in a few days. "Just call me Zeppelin!"
Su Xin has always had a low resistance to this kind of sister-like appearance that looks delicate and frail, and she always subconsciously lowers her voice and brings out her older sister side.
"Okay, Zeppelin." Su Xin introduced the five people, including herself, and then asked her, "Were you born naturally from the sea?"
"Naturally born? What are you talking about... I am a ship. I don't know why it became like this, but aren't ships made by humans?"
Yixian frowned, "So... you were built? Then where is the person who built you? Why would they leave you running around outside alone?"
"I don't know either." Little Zeppelin looked distressed. "I was sleeping, but when I woke up, I found myself lying on the ground, surrounded by people I didn't know..."
Su Xin always felt something was wrong, "What happened after that? Have you been walking around?"
"Yes, I walked for a long time before I realized that this is really a very strange place. There are many things I have never seen before, and the clothes people wear are also different."
"Hmm... so you are lost? Do you know where your home is?"
Little Zeppelin looked at the commander who asked the question, looking at him as if he was a fool. "Of course my family is in Iron Blood. Don't you know that? I am Count Zeppelin, the first aircraft carrier of Iron Blood! I am the brightest star in the future.
clatter!"
Yixian still didn't quite understand. If little Zeppelin was made by someone from a construction device, there was no reason to throw her on the street, even without the ship girl knowing. The possibility of this was almost zero.
And little Zeppelin said this was a strange place, completely different from hers. This was also a suspicious point. Her birthplace couldn't be Antarctica, right? As far as she knew, Iron Blood wasn't there either.
So Yixian quietly leaned over to Su Xin's ear and whispered, "Should we send her to the military police to see if they can help?"
The two of them were sitting close to each other, and Yixian's movements were not big, so it should not be noticeable. Even if it was noticed, she usually would not really point out the fact that they were whispering. But little Qi Peilin was different, she was unusually straightforward.
"Hey! How can you whisper to me? Are you hiding something from me?" Little Zeppelin took the hat and hugged it in his arms, saying warily, "I see, you are also plotting against Zeppelin, right?"
"Also?" Su Xin caught the key word, "Have you ever met someone who treated you badly?"
"Yes, I was hungry for too long and had no strength left. Then someone told me that if I followed him I could eat delicious food and he would send me home, so I followed him."
"I didn't expect that after I went there, he locked me in the house!" Little Zeppelin said this, his face flushed with anger, "He didn't even give me anything to eat! He wouldn't even let me out!"
"I heard him still telling others that he would give me away for a certain amount of money, and I knew he was kidnapping me!"
Everyone frowned upon hearing this. Su Xin couldn't stand this kind of child persecution, but she had to sort things out first. "Then how did you escape?"
"Ah... that..." Little Zeppelin was a little embarrassed when he said this, "One day the bad guy went out, and I felt so wronged that I just kept crying."
"Then I seemed to hear someone outside asking me why I was crying, and I said I was kidnapped... Then the man broke down the door and took me out."
"He's such a good man! He knew I was leaving and gave me a lot of money, but..." Little Zeppelin patted his clothes, "I don't have any pockets to put it in... I don't know who took it away when I fell asleep..."
"Why not go to the gendarmerie and ask for help?"
Zeppelin looked confused. "Kempeitai? What is that? Asking for help? Ah... the police?"
After hearing this, Su Xin's doubts deepened. Even if she was born in a different place, she shouldn't have never heard of the gendarmerie, right? And according to what little Zeppelin said, she was hungry for several days after waking up, which meant that she had passed away.
Less than a week.
In addition, when she was brought in, she was obviously very surprised when she saw the color TV in the apartment, and she was also full of curiosity about the thin glowing bricks that everyone had in their hands.
Based on these details, it can be inferred that little Zeppelin might have come from some deep mountains and forests, or some remote place.
But putting aside why there are construction devices in those places, is it really possible for someone to walk from the mountains or some remote place to this city in just a few days, and then be kidnapped?
Su Xin racked her brains but couldn't figure out little Zeppelin's origins, but when little Zeppelin saw that everyone had fallen silent, he suddenly became anxious.
"Can you help me get back? Iron Blood really needs me... I must find my way home as soon as possible and help Iron Blood!"
Upon hearing this, the young commander had to suppress his doubts and prepared to take little Zeppelin to the gendarmerie first to see if the gendarmerie could find out something to help little Zeppelin return home.
"Well...why don't you stay here for one night? I'll take you to see the police tomorrow and let them help you find where your home is, okay?"
"Hmm? Well...Okay, I was wrong about you. You are a good person. I, Count Zeppelin, will remember you!"
Su Xin smiled, looked at Xiao Ruyue who could hardly sit still, and said softly, "Then let Ruyue take you to take a bath? You will feel much more comfortable after you wash."
"Drink? Okay, then let's go, little expellee?"
