She stood in front of the stove with her back straight and her head held high, saying, "I'll cook a dish and then order a takeaway. You can see which one tastes better."
Sheffield actually had no objection to this, although she had heard Helena's advice before, saying that she should not let Su Xiaozhi enter the kitchen.
But she also learned from Hood that the dishes that Commander Su had made before were all pretty good, they just looked a little weird, but they were actually quite delicious.
In comparison, Sheffield naturally preferred to believe the advice of his elders at home, and thought that there should be no problem with the dishes prepared by Su Xiao.
Su Xin hadn't touched kitchen utensils for a long time, so it felt quite fresh. She cooked a dish for Sheffield on the spot. It was obviously just stir-fried seasonal vegetables, but for some reason it seemed to emit a blue-purple light.
When Su Xin brought out the takeaway food, she was a little panicked, fearing that Sheffield would die on the spot. Unexpectedly, the blindfolded maid was surprisingly good at fighting and finished both dishes directly.
"They both tasted OK." The maid wiped her mouth with a handkerchief, and then made a simple comment as if nothing had happened, "Well... the first dish was average, and the second dish tasted similar to our royal cuisine.
The little chef was shocked. This dish looked outrageous, but the maid could actually finish it. It was very similar to the royal cuisine... Doesn't that mean her cooking skills are terrible?
Commander Su was sad but he understood the problem. It seemed reasonable that royal family members could not take the medicine from Daifuku or drink the black tea with strange additives.
Chapter 345???
In the dim room, a small drum wrapped in a quilt finally moved a few times after being silent for two or three days, and then a small white hand stretched out from it.
After searching the pillow for a long time without finding what he wanted, the owner of the hand finally poked his head out from under the quilt, looking for something with his white hair scattered around.
"...Where's Rafi's phone?"
Rafi lifted the quilt and turned over the pillow, making the bed a mess. Finally, he found the phone on the carpet beside the bed, which was probably kicked off by him.
He pressed the power button of the phone, but there was no response. Confused, he held the button for a while in disbelief. After turning the phone on, he found that only 2% of the battery was left.
Looking at the time again, Rafi fell silent. She didn't expect that she had slept for two whole days and didn't wake up once during that time.
The white rabbit, who had gotten enough sleep, calmed down after being surprised. He then thought about his stomach and said, "...I'm so hungry."
She stretched out her little white legs and jumped off the bed. After taking two steps, she squinted her eyes and turned on the light.
The room was a bit messy and the air was a little stuffy. The clothes that I had taken off in a daze were still thrown on the armrest of the sofa, and the slippers that had been thrown away were not put away neatly.
"...Commander, he's not here yet."
Rafi knew that according to the little commander's temperament, if he came to her room, he would definitely tidy up all these things, then dig her out of the quilt and make sure she could breathe fresh air.
But now looking at the randomly placed objects in the room, it was obvious that Su Xin had not come to see him during this period, which made Lafite snort in dissatisfaction.
“…That’s too much.”
"Goo-"
A tiny, long rumble in her stomach stopped Laffi from talking. Between complaining to the commander first and eating something to fill her stomach first, she chose the latter. So after drawing the curtains and pushing open the window, Laffi went out.
The floor outside was a little damp, as if it had rained sometime before, and it seemed to be a heavy rain, causing the road surface in the port area to not be completely dry yet.
Rafi was so sleepy the past two days that she fell asleep as soon as she got home. In this state, not to mention thunder, even a bombing could not wake her up, so Rafi didn't take the rain seriously.
The corridor of the dormitory is very quiet, but Laffey has gotten used to it. After all, each ship girl has different living habits, and everyone basically lives their own life with the door closed to avoid disturbing others.
Rafi knew that three people like Eldridge, Long Island and Vicious rarely went out. Long Island was okay, after all, it was a big ship, and the big sisters respected her lifestyle.
But Eldridge and Vicious are still children, and it is not good for them to stay at home all the time, so Commander Su often asks Ruyue to go and play with these two.
Ruyue was embarrassed to go alone, so she often dragged her, Javelin, and Z23 to visit friends, and also took Eldridge and Vicious out for a walk.
In fact, Lafite also wanted to go home and sleep, but she didn't have the heart to refuse Ruyue's invitation. After all, Ruyue looked shy, but actually she still liked the hustle and bustle very much.
Thinking of this, Rafi, who was more mature among the expellees, sighed silently and decided to go find Ruyue after meeting the young commander to make up for what he had missed in the past two days.
As soon as the thought came to her mind, she saw Ruyue walking up the stairs and Eldridge who looked very listless.
Ruyue seemed to be having a lot of fun, and was surprised to see her, "La... Lafei, you're awake, I haven't seen you for a few days..."
Rafi nodded silently, then reached out and touched the little Sakura exile who was shorter than him, "...too sleepy."
"Is that so... So now... have you slept well?"
"Ah."
"Then can Ruyue come to play with you tonight? Bring everyone along..."
Rafi calculated the time silently in her mind and found that she should be able to send everyone away before the little commander went to bed, so she nodded to indicate her permission.
"That's great... Everyone will be happy after not seeing you for two days~"
Just as Lafei was about to respond, she heard Ruyue curiously ask her, "By the way, did you hear any thunder yesterday?"
After hearing this, the White Rabbit recalled it carefully, but found that she had no impression at all. She didn't even know whether she had any dreams when she slept, so she shook her head gently.
"I see. Eldridge was woken up yesterday... She suddenly ran in and scared me..." Ruyue complained and then became happy. "But after she came to accompany me, those... those sounds that sounded like carrier aircraft
The sound doesn’t scare me…”
Eldridge, who was being pulled by Ruyue, yawned loudly without any explanation, so Lafite just thought it was just a big thunderstorm.
After temporarily saying goodbye to Ruyue, Lafei continued to head towards the restaurant, but when she was about to reach her destination, she suddenly smelled a chill from the oncoming breeze.
It is a terrible smell that cannot be described in words. The moment you inhale it, it will paralyze your sense of smell, so that no one who has smelled it can describe what the specific smell is like.
Lafite had the good fortune to smell and even taste this scent, but the price he paid was a significant increase in water charges in the port area and several days of physical torture.
Therefore, when Lafite suddenly smelled this smell, his nose felt numb and he stopped immediately. After looking at the empty road ahead, he decided to avoid the downwind and take a detour.
The roads in the port area are interconnected. Although it is not large in scale, there are many buildings. If you don’t remember the map well, it is still easy to get lost.
Fortunately, as a veteran of the port area, Lafite is very familiar with every tree and blade of grass in the port area, and is well aware of the location and condition of each building.
Until she saw the high-end hot spring building with a collapsed wall.
"..."
"...Is there an earthquake?"
Rafi looked around and didn't see the little yellow chickens that were supposed to be on site for maintenance, which made her suddenly feel uneasy. It seemed that something terrible had happened in the port area in the past two days, and she didn't even know anything about it.
With doubts and vigilance, Rafi finally headed towards the restaurant driven by hunger, but the closer she got to the restaurant, the more she realized that something was wrong.
For some reason, the little yellow chickens, who were supposed to be repairing buildings near the hot spring, were rushing towards the restaurant in pairs carrying small stretchers.
This phenomenon made Lafei feel a little strange. Judging from the size of the stretcher, the injured ones should also be little yellow chickens, but there are so many of them... Is this a group fight?
So Lafite took out the cannon and followed the little yellow chickens towards the restaurant. Not long after, she saw the little yellow chickens lying in front of the restaurant door, and the maid in the restaurant who was eating without changing her expression.
As Rafi's fear was gradually awakened, she heard the maid's comment in a slightly sincere tone:
“The taste is okay.”
Chapter 346!!!
The dish, which was supposed to be green but emitted a bluish-purple glow, all went into Sheffield's stomach, which somewhat dissipated the horrible smell in the air.
Lafite took a sip of red wine to build up his courage, then walked around eighteen or nineteen little yellow chickens that were carrying a stretcher and entered the restaurant through the main entrance.
There were only three people inside, namely Sheffield, Guanghui, and Commander Su, whom she both resented and liked.
The two Royal Navy ship girls, Sheffield and Glory, seemed to be still discussing, and no one understood when their problems arose.
Su Xiaozhi's expression looked very depressed. When he saw Lafite coming, he was stunned at first, then walked to Lafite's side dejectedly, complaining with some helplessness and a bit of grievance.
"...Sister Sheffield praised my cooking as having a royal taste."
Rafi paused, stopped nodding, and then began to shake his head against his will, "...No."
"Really? I also think I can't compare to the royal cuisine." Commander Su breathed a sigh of relief after being comforted. "At least it looks much better than the fish head pie, right?"
Hearing this, Lafite recalled the stir-fried vegetables that he had just seen, which looked so blurred that he didn't know how to comfort the little commander, so he simply shut his mouth and said nothing.
Su Xin, on the other hand, didn't seem to want to end the conversation. She asked Lafei with concern, "When I went to see you earlier, I saw you sleeping. I didn't expect you to have slept until now... How are you? Are you feeling unwell?"
Lafite, who was a little dissatisfied at first, felt much more comfortable after hearing this. He put all the little discomfort in his heart behind him and just nodded, saying in a coquettish way: "...Why don't you sleep with me now that you are here?"
"Well... I saw that you were too tired before, and I was afraid that sleeping together would wake you up." Su Xin thought for a moment, and added: "Your room was quite messy, and I wanted to help you clean it the next day, but I was delayed by some... things."
Hearing this, Rafi was so relieved that she even forgot what she was going to do in the restaurant. She only wanted to get closer to the little commander, but her stomach, which had been neglected, interrupted her.
"Gu
The others paused, then all looked at Rafi's stomach. Sheffield wiped the corner of his lips, hid the handkerchief stained with blue-purple sauce, and then asked, "Are you hungry?"
Rafi suddenly felt something was wrong. The desire to survive forced her to shake her head against her conscience, but her stomach was too honest and made noises again and again.
Seeing the child at home so hungry, Guanghui's maternal instinct was aroused. She went straight to the kitchen in a white dress, and Lafite was so scared that she hurried over to stop her.
"I... I'm not really hungry... I just feel uncomfortable in my stomach..."
"Really?" Guanghui touched Lafite's head lovingly. "How about drinking some black tea to warm yourself up? I just got some special black tea, it tastes amazing, do you want to try it?"
Rafi thought that since she couldn't eat anything, it would be okay to drink some water for the time being, right? So she was about to agree to Guanghui's expectant eyes, but she saw the maid who had just finished eating "Su Xin's cuisine" shaking her head at her.
White Rabbit was immediately shocked. Even Sheffield shook his head. If she drank it... she would probably never see the commander again, right?
So Lafite took two steps back, took out the red wine, took two sips, and declined: "...I prefer this..."
"That's such a pity..." Guanghui hugged his chest and supported his cheeks, feeling quite regretful, "It's not good to drink too much wine, um... How about I give you some, you can drink it slowly?"
Lafei was panicking and was about to refuse when she heard the commander behind her offering her a helping hand. "No need, she's been drinking it all the time. Sister Guanghui should keep it. It seems that there won't be much left after hearing what you said."

"Hmm... well, there really aren't many left... I'll ask Akagi for some some other day."
Lafei heaved a sigh of relief when she heard that, and then she heard the little commander say to her, "How about I make some dumplings for you?"
White Rabbit's heart suddenly began to lift again. Just as he was thinking about how to find a reason to reject Commander Su's kindness, he heard the kitchen killer add:
"I made this before Sister Yixian left. I put it in the quick-freeze layer and it's ready to eat once it's boiled. Um... why don't you make it yourself?"
Lafite immediately agreed and quickly ran into the kitchen to boil water, leaving Su Xiaozhi standing there with a helpless and doting look on his face, continuing to argue with the two people from the royal family.
It is actually very simple to cook dumplings. Boil a pot of water, throw the dumplings in, wait for it to boil, add half a bowl of cold water, and repeat about three times before you can serve.
Although Lafite is a White Eagle ship girl, she has some understanding of the food under the feeding and influence of Chef Yixian, so she is quite adept at the cooking.
While she was busy inside, she heard someone coming outside and there was some commotion, but it was time to add water here and she couldn't leave for the time being.
When she added water and lowered the heat to go out to take a look, she heard Akagi's voice coming from outside, "Commander... my smell... where is my smell?"
The white rabbit was just wondering when he heard the little commander's voice: "I have it with me... If you don't believe me, look."
"Sniff... There's no smell anymore, Commander~ Otherwise, let's replenish and exchange again~"
When Lafite was wondering how this “replenishment” would work, the little commander agreed, “Okay, it seems like it’s time to replenish it…”
"Hehe... huh? What are you doing with a knife...? Wait... wait a minute!"
Hearing Akagi so excited, Lafite subconsciously touched his head, added another bowl of water to the pot, and then planned to go out to see the situation. However, as soon as he opened the door, he was pushed back by Akagi who rushed in.
As soon as Akagi came in, he slammed the door with a "bang" and quickly locked it. Only then did he have time to say hello to Lafite.
"Hmm? Ah... Hey, Rafi, are you awake?"
Rafi didn't hear the question, so he nodded politely, "Well, I've had enough sleep, Sister Akagi, are you...?"
"Oh, I...I'm a little hungry, so I came in to take a look."
Lafei nodded, "...I found some of Sister Yixian's dumplings, we can eat together, but...where's your tail?"
Akagi, who usually showed his tail ears, paused for a moment, then forced a smile and said, "I... my clothes are not suitable for today... so I took them back~"
Rafi looked at Akagi's trousers and nodded in understanding. Just as he was about to say something, he heard the little commander knocking on the door:
【Knock knock.】
[Open the door, don't you want to add some flavor?]
Then Lafite saw Akagi taking two steps back nervously, "We don't need it today, right? We can refill it next time, okay?"
[No, what if my sister gets excited again? Sister, please stop being willful and open the door quickly, or I will force my way in.]
Akagi didn't say a word and was looking for something in the kitchen nervously. After walking around and touching the wall again, she seemed to be in despair.
"Why...why is the only window on the commander's side..."
Rafi was very curious about Akagi in this state. He wanted to look at him twice more when he heard something scratching at the door.
"Giggle-"
“Crack, crack, crack…”
