The carpet was soft, but it couldn't provide any guidance. Commander Su couldn't even see the light at the moment and had to rely on his memory, which made him feel uneasy.
But she stubbornly remained silent, trying to move forward, turning where she thought was appropriate, then stretched out her hand and leg and kicked the corner of the desk.
Good physical fitness can ensure that Su Xin will not be injured, but the pain will not be reduced at all, so the little conductor squatted down with a cry of "ah", covering his little toe and "ah" non-stop.
Tiancheng beside the bed sighed, "How come you have become so distant after not seeing each other for a few days? You didn't even ask for help if I didn't help you. Where did you bump into? Let me see."
Upon hearing this, Commander Su shook his head, squatted down and took two steps back.
Although they had only not seen each other for a few days in Tiancheng, Su Xin had been separated from Tiancheng for several years. During those years, she had been with little Zeppelin and could do nothing but chat.
Su Xin also wanted to return to her previous state as soon as possible, but it was a bit difficult for a while. Maybe it was because they had been apart for too long, and the way she and Tiancheng got along was somewhat unnatural. It was fine when there were many people around, but it was a problem when they were alone.
Here it comes.
The young commander had no intention of hiding anything. After rubbing his little toe, he stood up, kept a distance from her, and spoke to Tiancheng while covering his lips.
"I... don't seem to know how to get along with you, sister... because we haven't seen each other for so long..."
Tian Cheng was stunned for a moment, then realized what Su Xin meant by "too long". After all, when she heard little Qi Penglin talk about his past experiences yesterday, she had listened to the whole thing with a frown.
"But it's okay this way." Tiancheng looked at the little commander who seemed to be feeling guilty but still had no expression on his face, and smiled gently, "Just like how you took care of me who was not very familiar with you back then..."
"...I can make up for the regrets of the past."
Thinking of this, Tiancheng took two steps closer, keeping a very appropriate distance, and then reached out and pinched Su Xin's cheek, "It's okay."
“We can start over.”
"Ten steps ahead is the bathroom door."
"Ah."
"Eight, nine, ten, um, then take a step and cross it. The ground might be a little slippery, so you need to step firmly."
"Well, good."
"After you enter, there is a sink on your right hand side. Your toothbrush is on the right side of the sink, and there is a dry towel hanging on the left. Take it slowly and be careful not to knock it off."
Hearing this, Commander Su placed his hand on the smooth porcelain surface of the sink and groped towards the right little by little. He breathed a sigh of relief when he touched the familiar toothbrush handle, and then reached for the toothpaste.
The little conductor, who was originally clever and agile, was able to squeeze the toothpaste on the spot, but unfortunately he couldn't squeeze the toothpaste correctly onto the toothbrush head after a long time.
She had no choice but to wash her hands first, then determine the position of the brush head inch by inch, and then she successfully took the first step of washing, and then took a glass of water to rinse her mouth.
But when the brush head with toothpaste entered her mouth, problem arose again. Su Xin remembered clearly that her toothpaste should be orange flavored.
The taste in her mouth was slightly sweet, with a strange fragrance, a smell she seemed to have smelled somewhere before...
Before she could figure it out, Tiancheng, who was standing at the door of the bathroom, asked, "Huh? When did you change your toothpaste to grape flavor? Wasn't the orange flavor not good before?"
Commander Su was stunned, and finally he found the information about the grape-flavored toothpaste from his distant memory (a long time had passed in the other world).
Lafite.
They used to live together often, so each of them had their own toothbrush and toothbrush cup in their room, which were placed together. One of them used orange-flavored toothpaste and the other used grape-flavored toothpaste.
If she just took the wrong toothpaste, then the toothbrush and cup she is using now are not hers.
Thinking of this, Su Xin suddenly felt a little inexplicably ashamed. Fortunately, her face remained blank, so Tiancheng didn't notice anything wrong. However, she probably had to bite the bullet and finish brushing her teeth first.
After the commander finished washing up, Tian Cheng spoke again, "Go seven steps forward, and the toilet is on the right. The paper towel is on the right side of the toilet."
Su Xin paused for a few breaths after hearing this, and was too embarrassed to move. "I...I understand. Sister, can you close the door first?"
Tiancheng chuckled a few times and closed the door as he was told.
Commander Su then breathed a sigh of relief. He cleaned up slowly according to the direction and distance he had just heard, washed his hands carefully, and then opened the door and walked out.
Tian Cheng, who was standing by the door waiting, saw this and bowed in a good mood and asked, "Well...is it done?"
"Well, okay, are we going to eat now?"
"Yes, but before that, I have one more thing to do."
"W-well...?"
The pink cherry blossoms separated at the touch of a finger, and the fox, in gratitude, pulled the little girl, who had not yet come to her senses, and walked away slowly with satisfaction.
"Hmm... As expected, I still prefer orange flavor."
Chapter 376 The Days of Blindness 3
"Little...little...little Zeppelin..."
Little Zeppelin, who was pulled out of his room early in the morning, looked at the slightly nervous Sakura destroyer in front of him and didn't quite understand, "What's going on?"
"I...I...I...I just wanted to see you..." Ruyue looked at the expressionless little Zeppelin in front of her, a little scared, "Why...why aren't you...happy..."
Little Zeppelin paused, suddenly not knowing how to answer this question.
Although she had a good relationship with Ruyue and the others in the past, in her opinion, several years have passed and even the most familiar friends will become more or less strangers.
"I'm just... adapting." Little Zeppelin looked at Little Ruyue who was listening attentively, "Adapting to the new life I've luckily gotten from hell."
Kisaragi tried very hard to understand, "New... New student... Ah, will little Zeppelin go to school with us?"
Little Zeppelin: ?
"Sister Su said that she would build a university in the future, and then... Nimi-chan would be the teacher and teach us many things... You will come too, right?"
"I...haven't thought about this." Little Zeppelin thought for a moment, "I'm not interested, but I...want to try it once."
"Ah... then... that means you will come, right? Then let's go together this afternoon... to buy stationery? Ah, and ask Vicious, Javelin and the others to come along... and...
Little Zeppelin looked at the child in front of him who was trying hard to speak and didn't want the atmosphere to become cold or awkward. After thinking for a while, he tentatively reached out and touched little Ruyi's head.
"I want Maomao's stationery—" Ruyue stopped talking and let little Zeppelin move on her head, "Well... obviously... obviously I was born earlier than you..."
"...I will."
"Oh...eh?" Ruyue paused for a moment before reacting and looked at the little Zeppelin who tilted his head slightly, "Really? Will you go to class too? Then...then we will be classmates in the future..."
Little Zeppelin looked at the two figures in the distance who seemed to be playing hide-and-seek. After a moment of silence, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
"I hope... this can bring me a different ending..."
"What's the end? Little Zeppelin, after you've been gone for a while, you seem to have become...more...um...wiser!"
"Well, thanks for the compliment."
"Well, there's no need to be so polite... shall we go find Ju Gaogao and the others first?"
"Ah."
"Sister...too close..."
"Hey, Indy, how could that be? Sisters should be close to each other. These are the cookies I just baked. Indy, why don't you try some? They are filled with my love for you~"
"Well... I don't want to eat."
"Eh? Why... why is it that my sister is working so hard to make it delicious?"
“...I have eaten here many times...”
"What! Indy-chan is already tired of her sister so soon?!" Portland was shocked and held Indy's hand tightly. "Then...then I'll make a cake? Chocolate is fine too. As long as Indy
I want to eat it!"
Indy thought about it and shook his head, "Sister has taken good care of me... There's no need to be so... troublesome..."
"How can it be a problem? As long as it's for Indy-chan, I can do anything~Indy-chan~~~"
Hearing this, Indy caught Portland who was rushing towards him with ease. While letting her rub against his neck, he nodded as if he had made a decision.
"I...I also want to make it for my sister once..."
"Eh? What? Ah! Did Indy say bake cookies?! I'm so touched..." Portland burst into tears after saying this, "Don't even mention cookies. As long as it's Indy's for me, I'll be so happy."
Eat it with relish~"
Indy was about to say that there was no need to be so serious, but suddenly she saw two figures. After she came to her senses, she quickly pushed Portland's shoulder and kept urging her to leave quickly.
“Hurry up… hurry up…”
"Eh? What's wrong? Are you so impatient to make dessert for your sister? Slow down, woo hoo...Indy-chan is so enthusiastic!!"
"...Don't disturb them."
"They? Who are they? I didn't see anyone coming over just now? Did Indy see anything?"
"...Sister is so noisy..."
"Hehehe... This is the volume of happiness~ What should I do for my sister? I'm so looking forward to it..."
"..."
"Go straight ahead."
"Ah."
"At the fork in the road, let's take the one on the right. Try tapping it with the bamboo stick in your hand, but be careful not to step on the grass."
"okay."
The sound of light bamboo sticks knocking rang out regularly, and the crisp sound of "thump thump thump" was endless, bringing a slightly different tone to the usually quiet port area.
"Yeah, very good." Tiancheng, who was dressed in casual clothes, stood at the back, looking at the slow and firm steps of the black-haired girl in front of him. He felt distressed but also a little relieved.
If possible, she really didn't want Su Xiaozhi to go through these things, nor did she want Su Xin to experience this helpless life without sight.
However, the healing effect of Su Xiaozhi's "small wrench" is limited. Although it can indeed recover Su Xin's injuries, it will definitely take a long time. During this period, Su Xin may have to live as a "blind person"
In this regard, no one in the port area may have more say than Amagi, which is why Amagi was able to surpass Helena, the secretary ship, and become the first ship girl to take care of Commander Su Xiao.
"There's a bench on the left. We can rest for a while before continuing."
"Okay." The little commander found the right place obediently, and then carefully moved his buttocks until his soft flesh actually touched the chair surface. Only then did Su Xin breathe a sigh of relief and put her center of gravity on it.
Tian Cheng waited for her to sit down before he quickly walked over to Su Xin and sat down next to her. He asked casually, "How is it? It's been almost a day. Are you able to adapt?"
"Hmm... OK." The little commander thought about it seriously, "I have memorized the distances, so there shouldn't be any mistakes. It's just that I haven't memorized the placement of things in other places."
"It's already amazing, much better than I was back then."
Commander Su shook his head upon hearing this. "Sis, you retired at that time, so the problems you encountered would be more difficult to solve. Besides, there was no one like you to help you at that time."
Tiancheng smiled again when he heard that, but didn't say anything. He just silently took Su Xiaozhi's hand, pinched the other's fingertips, and gently stroked the palm of his hand.
“Well… although all the traces have disappeared, it was certainly not easy at the time…” Tiancheng chuckled, “But I’m by your side now, so don’t worry, I will take good care of you.”
Commander Su was about to answer when he heard the long-lost voice coming from not far ahead.
"...No, Commander, Rafi will take care of it."
ps: I feel like I won’t be able to update twice a week before I quit. I will have completed my resignation before the 13th, so I should only be able to update once before then. But I will write more on my days off, so please understand...(So sleepy...
Chapter 377 The Days of Blindness 4
"...Lafite?" Commander Su suddenly became nervous when he heard the voice of a white rabbit.
Calculating the time, she hadn't seen Rafi for a long time. She wanted to come back and take a good look at Rafi, but unexpectedly she lost her sight.
They were the two people who knew each other best. They not only knew each other's likes and dislikes, but also knew each other's sleeping habits and movements.
Logically speaking, since they were already so familiar with each other, Commander Su Xiao shouldn't be so nervous and at a loss, but in fact, personality factors still put a lot of pressure on Su Xin.
The little commander never thought she was that good. She had recorded countless shortcomings. Being liked by everyone was something she had never dared to think about.
With everyone's efforts, we were finally able to face our own emotions and take steps towards a new area that we had never touched before, but after walking a short distance, we ended up with nothing.
Su Xin stayed in another world for too long, longer than any other ship girl she knew in the port.
She was a person who didn't care much about socializing. She needed others to be around her often to make their presence felt so that she would remember and become familiar with them. But this time, she was away from home for several years.
When he was finally able to come back, he found that he could not see anyone, which made Commander Su, who was already inferior and sensitive, even more uneasy.
The closer Su Xin is to someone, the better she thinks they are, and the more she wants to give and care for them. Correspondingly, she cares more about her own situation.
"Will she... think I'm troublesome?"
"I should have wrapped myself in gauze before coming out."
"I should be the one taking care of her..."
