Chapter 193: Page 193

"Hmm? Susu? How do you have time to come to the Royal Ark?"

"I don't have anything to do today, so I'm just walking around." Su Xin leaned forward and looked inside. "I think I heard some noises. Are you doing anything?"

"Well... Actually, Hood is training the Royal Ark." Guanghui smiled helplessly, "The test papers have been issued several times, but the Royal Ark has never passed. Really..."

The young commander was a little curious. "Test paper? Test? What will Sister Hood's questions be about?"

Guanghui tilted his head as he looked at Su Xin. "It's about the basics of ladylike conduct and black tea desserts. Su Su, are you interested? You can come in and listen together?"

Su Xin shook her head quickly. She always drank tea with boiling water. Besides, with Sheffield taking care of her diet, there was no need for her to listen to Hood's nagging.

Guanghui did not force it. He said goodbye and closed the door again. The young commander stood there for a while, listening to Hood's voice, which was gradually losing its temper, and Royal Ark's painful sigh, and he couldn't help but smile.

Sheffield thought for a moment, and then reminded Su Xin from behind, "I suggest that the master listen to it, and then he can make it himself when he wants to drink it.

The little conductor shook his head. "You are here, and you will never leave me. So I have to rely on you, Sister Sheffield."

Sheffield paused, bowed slightly, and said, "As you wish, Master."

Commander Su was very happy to hear this. Just as he was about to say something else, he received a call from Helena.

[Susu? Where are you?]

"Hmm? I'm in front of the room in the Royal Ark." Su Xin paused, "Is there something wrong? Sister, you seem very anxious."

【I just received a text message from an unknown number. 】

【Only three words were written on it.】

【Don't come back.】

Commander Su frowned when he heard this, "I'll be right there."

Chapter 327 Invitation

After receiving the news, Su Xin hurried back to her room. Tiancheng and Helena were sitting on the sofa inside. When they saw her come back, they looked over and saw Commander Su who was sweating all over.

After Su Xin entered the room, she took a few breaths and let Sheffield wipe her sweat. She looked at the two people on the sofa and asked, "What...what happened?"

Helena frowned, "I'm not sure either. I don't recognize this number. I asked her who it was but didn't get a reply..."

In order to facilitate the conversation, Su Xin grunted and moved a chair next to the desk and sat opposite the two of them. Then she drank two sips of brown sugar water before continuing to ask

"I remember your number, sister. Only the ship girls in the port area should know it, right?"

"Right... There's no need to order takeout in the harbor area. My number should only be in the harbor area... Hmm?" Helena was stunned as she spoke, "It seems... wrong."

Su Xin was a little surprised, "Sister, do you think of anyone else who knows?"

Tiancheng thought for a moment, then guessed: "Is it... the port area from before?"

Helena nodded, her expression unclear, "Well... because I haven't changed this number, the ship girls over there should know it, but they should block me..."

Commander Su felt a little sorry for Helena, but the most important thing was business. "Do you have their cell phone numbers?"

"Yes, but it's not this." Helena frowned, "Maybe it's just a prank. After all, the content of the text message is not clear..."

Su Xin didn't quite agree. She always considered the worst-case scenario and therefore didn't intend to let the matter go. But now there were no more clues, which made the young commander a little nervous.

"It shouldn't take too long." Tiancheng didn't seem to be in a hurry. "There will probably be new progress in the next few days. We just need to wait patiently and see what to do then."

"That's all we can do." Commander Su nodded, and then comforted Helena, "Sister, don't be too nervous. If there is any problem, we are here with you."

Helena's original worry was immediately dispelled by the little commander. She burst out laughing and said, "You should take care of your body first. You are as white as a piece of paper. This is not convincing at all."

Commander Su sighed, "There are still three items that have not been tested. They should be completed in about a week. Besides, since this information suddenly appeared, I should have confirmed the specific parameters earlier."

"You..." Helena smiled, and looked at Tiancheng beside her. After thinking for a while, she still felt uneasy about leaving Tiancheng here, so she said goodbye, "Then Tiancheng and I will leave first. You should have a good rest and don't come back.

Running around everywhere."

"Okay, remember to tell me if you have any news!"

"okay."

In the next few days, nothing special seemed to happen in the port area. Mingmao's shop was still doing a booming business, and the other ship girls were doing what they were supposed to do.

Helena did not receive any reply afterwards. Even though she asked about the identity again and again, it was like throwing a stone into the abyss, with no response at all.

Slowly, Helena went from being worried at first to feeling relieved, and finally she obviously didn't care much about the matter. After all, she was now living in her home in the port area and felt very safe.

However, Commander Su, who has always been negative, felt more and more frustrated. As time went by, her inner sense of uneasiness became stronger and stronger. Unless the matter was defined or resolved, this uneasiness would continue for a long time.

I have to say that, to a certain extent, Su Xin's intuition has always been quite accurate, and this time is no exception. On the fourth day after receiving the text message, a guest came to the port area.

"Hmm... This is it, right?"

The tall beauty with a long burgundy ponytail checked the navigation on her phone. After confirming that she had arrived at her destination, she stretched her waist and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Finally we're here. This place is so far away... I hope I won't be disappointed!"

"Huh? Why are there so many people? Is the scale of this port so large?" The burgundy-haired ship girl looked at the ship girls who were lined up at the gate and became even happier. "It seems that there are a lot of strong people here, hehe... Commander

The official was right.”

So she smiled and walked into the open gate of the port area, then patted the ship girl standing at the end of the team, "Hi~ hello."

The wandering ship girl who was waiting to enter the house to draw a lottery was stunned for a moment, then smiled very friendly, "Hello, what can I do for you?"

"Well, shall we have a fight?"

"......Huh?"

"I mean, let's have a fight!"

The wandering ship girl was a little confused, "It's so... so sudden... I don't even know you..."

"Hmm? Ah, I forgot." The shipgirl with long wine-red hair smiled straightforwardly, "My name is Maryland, and I'm a White Eagle battleship."

"Eh? Ah...Hello Maryland..."

"Hello, can we have a fight now? Where is the training ground in your port area?"

The wandering ship girl was stunned for a moment, then she quickly waved her hands after realizing what was happening. "I'm not the ship girl of this port... You... You seem to have found the wrong person. I'm just here to buy something..."

"Huh? Aren't you?" Maryland was a little surprised, and looked at the long line in front of her. "What about them? Are they here to buy things too?"

"Yes, you can buy boxes and draw equipment here, it's very profitable!"

"Ah...it turns out that the scale is not that big..." Maryland muttered to himself, and then he had time to recall the purpose of coming here. Then he clapped his hands and asked the other party, "Then do you know where the commander of this port is? I have something to talk to her about.

situation. "

The wandering ship girl shook her head, "Well... I don't actually know where she is, but you can go ask the ship girl sitting over there."

Maryland looked in the direction the other person was pointing, and saw the white-haired rabbit who was on duty, nodding and dozing off in a chair. So she strode over and patted the rabbit on the shoulder.

Rafi was interrupted while she was half asleep. She looked up at the woman who was much taller than her and yawned. "Hello... What's up...?"

"Hello, I want to meet your commander. I have something to ask her." Maryland thought for a moment and added, "By the way, please invite the strongest person in your port area to come out. I want to have a drill with her!"

Rafi looked confused, looking at the older sister with her hands on her hips waiting for a reply. After thinking for a while, he skipped the last request and asked her directly: "...What do you want to talk to the commander about?"

"Oh, it's like this. My commander has a birthday soon, and I want to invite her to the party." Maryland rummaged around in the space for a long time, took out a velvet folded invitation and handed it over. "Take me to find her first.

? "

Chapter 328 Unpredictable Intentions

"Are you the commander of this port? You look so small..."

Maryland sat on the sofa in the command room, looking at Commander Su Xiao opposite him, somewhat incredulous, "You look like a junior high school student...Are you a fake destroyer?"

Su Xin, who was sipping brown sugar water slowly, choked when she heard this. She covered her mouth and coughed a few times, which resulted in further questioning from Maryland.

"You still seem weak... Are you sick? Will you infect my commander?"

Hearing this, Sheffield glanced at the guest who was a little outspoken, and wanted to say something to provoke her, but when he saw the little commander's hand reaching for a handkerchief, he gave up the idea. After handing her the handkerchief, he gently helped Su Xin to calm down.

Commander Su Xiao coughed for a while before he caught his breath. He wiped his lips helplessly, then looked at Maryland, who was looking at the command room with his chin propped up across from him.

"Sister Maryland, right? I heard from Rafi that you came to invite me? Why exactly?"

It was the first time that Maryland was called "sister" by a stranger, and this was such a lovely little girl. She softened her heart a little and her voice became less loud.

She straightened her sitting posture, then took out the invitation and handed it over, "Uh... it's an invitation to a birthday party. My commander's birthday is coming up, and I'd like to invite you to be a guest."

Su Xin stretched out her pale little hand to take the letter, flipped it open and took a look, she saw the neat signature at the bottom - Liu Jun.

She hadn't heard this name from anyone for a long time, but her excellent memory made her know clearly that the person who sent the invitation was Helena's former commander.

This realization made her feel very uncomfortable. Combined with the text messages Helena received a few days ago, this banquet was most likely a Hongmen Banquet.

But looking at Maryland's expression which looked like "I'm just here to deliver something, have you finished reading it?", you can tell that the other party probably has no idea of ​​the potential grudge between her and Liu Jun.

So the young commander calmed down, looked at the letter and thought for a while, trying to figure out the meaning of the other party's invitation.

In this modern world where the law is basically perfect, Liu Jun can't call me over and poison my food, right?

It is even more impossible to let the ship girl take action. Not to mention that the ship girl herself needs to bear the crime, letting a kind-hearted ship girl kill people is a very difficult thing in itself.

Besides, she could find an excuse not to go. Commander Su couldn't figure out what Liu Jun's intention was in sending out an invitation letter.

Maybe she had been thinking for too long. Maryland, who was sitting opposite her, gradually started to shake her legs like she had ADHD. The shaking of her thighs interrupted the little girl who already knew what "Lily" was, and she couldn't help but

Don't look away.

"Um...Sister Maryland, are you in a hurry?"

Maryland was very happy when she saw Su Xin was no longer in a daze and stopped walking. "Don't worry, I can even stay nearby for two days and wait for you to make a decision."

Commander Su was a little confused. "So you were shaking just now... did you want to go to the bathroom?"

Maryland was stunned and waved her hands. "No, no, I... uh... I just don't like sitting there doing nothing. Um... Commander Su, can I ask you a favor?"

Su Xin was curious when she heard this, she put down the letter she had read countless times, and turned her attention to the obviously happy older sister, "Tell me about it.

"That's right... My commander said that you got very good results in the previous activities. The strength of the ship girls in the port area must be very strong, so..."

Maryland scratched his head and looked at Commander Su Xiao expectantly, "So can you let the most powerful person in your port area come out and fight with me?"

Su Xin paused when she heard the request, but she was not surprised. After all, she had read Maryland's game information and his "combative" personality was very distinct.

But there was one thing she was very curious about. "Well... Sister Maryland, if we count the construction time, you haven't been here for two years yet?"

"Huh? How did you know?" Maryland was a little surprised. "It's only been about six months. I don't think I ever told you this?"

Su Xin nodded without answering. Seeing that the other party could invite her without any hesitation and had a pure expression when proposing the exercise, she guessed that Maryland did not seem to be aware of the grudge between the two families.

In this case, there was no need for her to cause trouble for both parties, so she skipped Maryland's question and answered directly: "Of course, I also need some time to consider your invitation."

"That's great!" Maryland jumped up from the sofa. "When? Now? I've had enough this morning!"

Su Xin was stunned, and was amazed by the other party's impatience. "You seem to be in a hurry. Sister, haven't you practiced with others in the port area?"

"Ah... they don't want to fight with me." Maryland sighed, "I'm starting to wonder if I'm hated..."

Even though Commander Su was dumb, he knew he couldn't go any deeper into this topic, so he quickly changed the subject and said, "Ah... I... let me think about who I should ask to play with you..."

"Of course the strongest one!"

Su Xin felt that this was not possible. The top fighters in the family were basically those who could discuss and make decisions. She would need to discuss the banquet with them later, and she didn't have time for them to fight with Maryland.

Most of the other ship girls are pioneers, and there are actually not many who are capable. After thinking about it, Su Xin decided to let Lafite work overtime.

"Well... Sister Maryland, why don't you go look for Laffite? He's the destroyer that just brought you here."

"Ah?" Maryland was stunned, then a little angry. "Are you trying to fool me? What's the point of bullying a destroyer? Don't you even have a battleship in your port?"

"Yes, but they are a little busy and won't be able to play with you until later. I'm afraid you can't wait, so I asked you to go find Lafite first."

"You don't want me to look for a destroyer, do you?" Maryland scratched his head. "If there's no battleship, what about an aircraft carrier? If that doesn't work, a heavy cruiser will do."

"Hmm... You should know Nelson from your port area, right? Have you ever fought with her?"

"Yes, we have fought. It's a draw, I guess."

Commander Su nodded, "That's easy. Last year, Lafei fought her one-on-one and won by luck."

"Really?" Maryland suddenly became very motivated. "Then I'll go find her right away. When you've made up your mind, just come to the training ground to find me. I'm leaving now! Bye-bye-bye!"

The little conductor smiled and waved. After Maryland left, her expression darkened again. She drank a sip of the cold brown sugar water and then said to Sheffield:

"Sister Sheffield, can you please invite Sister Tiancheng and the others over? I need to take a short break and sort out my thoughts. Thank you for your help."
