The young commander was not angry, but rather quite calm. "I heard from Sister Eugen that you have published a lot of news content before. Why are you spreading rumors now?"
Qingye felt tired when he heard this, "I need to eat... I don't get much money for investigating incidents, and I have to pay for the investigation myself. What's more important is that I may not even be able to publish it. If I don't make some money, I'll starve to death.
"...You are just gossipy."
"...Hey, just a little bit." Qingye smiled, and suddenly remembered something, and started to negotiate, "How about I tell you a secret, and you will forgive me?"
"Well... tell me first."
"Okay, I'm not afraid that you, the big star, will break your promise." Qingye said bluntly, smacking his lips at the end, "Do you want me to call the military police for you?"
"..No, I can handle it." The young commander thought for a moment and then said, "But you probably have to meet the military police first."
"Okay, remember to plead for me when the time comes, Commander Su."
"...Let's wait and see."
"Commander~" Atago knocked on the door of the research institute and smiled gently at the person in front of her: "Sister made some ginger soup? There is no sugar in it, it should suit your taste, would you like to try it?"
Commander Su thought for a moment and asked, "Is there any place for Yubari?"
"Ah... Of course!" Atago silently calculated the dosage and found that the effect might not be very good for two people, but it was not bad at all, so she nodded and said, "I cooked a lot, it should be enough for you to drink."
Su Xin nodded when she heard this, glanced at Yu Zhang who was about to burst into tears, and asked a soul-searching question expressionlessly: "Sister, you...didn't add anything weird, did you?"
Atago was startled, but managed to keep her expression. She quickly retorted with anger, "How could that be? Lord Amagi already taught me a lesson last time. How could I do it again? Don't worry, Commander~"
"That's good." The little commander nodded, took the porcelain bowl in the midst of Atago's joyful expression, then paused for a few breaths and looked towards the door, "Sister Amagi, this is what Sister Atago said."
Tiancheng's voice with a hint of laughter sounded from the door: "Well, I understand Susu, I will take care of it."
Atago, whose expression was frozen: ???
ps: Note 1: I don't understand journalists at all. You can just take a look at their professional ethics and don't take them seriously. Speaking of which, I seem to be getting more and more used to staying up late recently... My retirement days are gone forever (夕°°；)
Chapter 391 Purin&bul
Aoba cooperated very well and followed the military police who arrived after hearing the news very obediently, leaving Eugen alone standing there with his arms crossed, looking carefully at the expressionless little commander.
"That's amazing... I remember Qingye is pretty good at fighting. How did you catch her, little commander?"
Commander Su couldn't see very clearly, but she could feel that the temperature behind her was slightly lower than the surrounding area, and this was her reliance on the unexpected attack.
However, the existence of the "spirit" obviously could not be told to others, so Su Xin just looked at Eugen silently and then changed the subject.
"What are the gendarmerie going to do with her? Will she be sentenced?"
"Hmm... Well, it depends on what she has done. But I don't think she will stay with us for too long. After all, most of the news about her has not even been published, and there have been many positive investigations."
Commander Su nodded, thought for a moment and decided to start chasing people away, "Then may I ask Sister Eugen if there is anything else?"
"Nothing..." Eugen suddenly smiled and leaned closer, "I just wonder if Commander Su is free. When can you come to our place? We all miss you a lot. Um... By the way, I want to ask you for an autograph."
"Well... not right now. I'll visit you in a few days. As for your autograph... how about forgetting it?"
"If you can refuse then, I have no objection." Eugen hummed softly twice, "Then I'll go back first. Remember to bring some beer. Captain Ayanami won't let me drink that during work hours. If you bring it, it won't be the same.
It’s settled, bye~”
Commander Su Xiao waved at Eugen, and after he left, he turned around and asked Yubari, "So, is the research result you just mentioned true?"
"Well, of course. I provided some of the data, so I know the general situation." Yubari looked a little excited. "The former deputy team leader...ah, she has been promoted to a full-time position. She told me a few days ago that the research
There have been some results.”
Su Xin was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then she realized, "Are you talking about... the one about the ship girl breaking through the boundaries?"
"Yes, she said that she has created a total of ten new ship girls, and has invited two of them to come to our port for experimental support. They will probably arrive tomorrow!"
"...So what are they called?"
Yubari couldn't help laughing when she heard this question, "Actually, it's a little bit of a joke. When she named them, she decided based on the Kanmusu's quirks, so their names are--"
Commander Su Xiao continued, "...Bree?"
"Sister, how long will it take us to get there? Bri can't get up anymore..."
The petite girl with golden spiral twin ponytails paused and sighed, "I don't know either... The map the researcher gave me is not purin at all... I haven't found it after searching for so long..."
Another little girl with long white hair and giant ahoge also sighed, "The researcher said to go east when we get to the station...but Brie doesn't know which way is east..."
"It doesn't matter!" The blonde sister put her hands on her hips and snorted twice, "I have already tried it with the drill. I used a strong will to drive it. When it fell, it pointed this way, so it must be this purin!"
"Oh my! Sister, you are so smart! But we have been walking for so long, do you want to test it again to see if we have gone astray?"
"Well... okay, you make sense, Purin." The blonde sister Brie skillfully took out her giant cat claw drill, then put the tip on the ground and started to spin it like a large spinning top.
The sharp drill bit broke through the ground in just a few strokes, and the entire golden drill bit stood upright in place, like a small poplar.
The two Brie sisters fell silent upon seeing this. After a while, Brie's elder sister asked, "...So this is the destination?"
"It's possible... But why hasn't Commander Su arrived yet? Being late is not a good habit, buli..."
"Please wait a little longer. I will wait for her for a while. If she doesn't come, I will lose my patience, purin!"
"......9
"Sister, are you still patient?"
"...I am hungry."
"Shall we go find something to eat first?"
"Hmm...ah, let's go to that store and ask, Purin!"
Today, Ming Miao stopped her business for a rare time and planned to take Shiranui to see what the legendary special ship girl who could help them solve the boundary problem looked like.
After all, if they really want to make a fuss, they have never heard of any type of ship that is specifically designed to help ship girls make breakthroughs. The only thing that is closest to it may be a transport ship for transporting weapons and ammunition.
Moreover, breaking through the boundaries is something very mysterious no matter how you think about it. Although ship girls can be considered as a kind of fantasy creatures, they don't distinguish between golden elixir and primordial infant. It sounds unbelievable that they have to take medicine and practice when they reach the limit.
"Isn't it also about refining pills and letting us eat something like... Hunyuan Pills, Po'e Pills, etc?" Changdao, who had a wide range of interests, bought a bag of potato chips on the spot and complained while eating, "And what do pills taste like... Shan
Hawthorn flavor?"
Commander Su thought about it and found that he really didn't know. "Well... ancient elixirs contain a lot of metal elements, so they won't taste good."
"Metal elements..." Nagashima imagined himself licking the iron door and shuddered, "Eh... So disgusting."
Why is it taking so long? If I close the shop for a day, I will lose countless amounts of money, meow..."
"Please be patient. Yubari has worked hard to get this opportunity." Tiancheng stood straight and looked at the end of the road outside the gate. "Let's wait a little longer."
Ming Miao reluctantly agreed, and turned around to compare the store's revenue from the past few days with Shiranui. Soon, his mood improved, and he smiled like a sunflower.
Su Xin was not in a hurry because she knew Bree's general situation. If she was late, it was probably because the cute Bree got lost. She didn't think she would stand them up on purpose.
But her eyesight had not yet recovered and she could not see what was happening in the distance, so she had to stand there and let the "spirit" floating in the air carefully pinch her fingers to play with her.
Another half an hour passed, and seeing that Buri still hadn't arrived, Commander Su turned around and told everyone to go back and wait for news from Manju who was guarding the door.
Everyone had no choice but to nod in agreement, but they didn't expect that just after they turned around and took a few steps, the surrounding lights suddenly went out, and it seemed that there was a power outage in Mingmiao's shop.
This is almost impossible to happen in the upgraded and renovated port area, unless a Pikachu touches the socket again.
After a brief discussion, everyone decided to go to Eldridge's room to see what was going on, but after opening the door, they saw an unexpected scene.
Eldridge slept uneasily in the middle of the bed, his thin eyebrows still slightly wrinkled even in his sleep.
On the left and right sides of Eldridge, there was a girl of similar size, using their tails to tie to Eldridge's hose.
Seeing everyone suddenly arrive, the two little girls seemed to be at a loss and trembled, making shrill and soft sounds like frightened cubs.
"Buli!"
"purin!"
ps: I worked overtime until 10:30. This is yesterday's update. Today's update will probably be a bit late, so you can check it out tomorrow~
Chapter 392 Candidate
"I'm sorry Purin..."
"Sister and Brie are just too hungry buli..."
Su Xin stood in front of the crowd, looking at the two small ship girls who were unwilling to retract their tails with plugs even when they knelt down to apologize, and she felt a little curious.
Although in the game of her previous life, it was not difficult for an old player like Su Xiao to obtain Bree, this was the first time she had seen Bree in the past ten years of her life.
Just like the illustration, Kimbre is a little kid with spiral twin ponytails, running around in a suspender skirt and stockings and long boots.
Zibuli is the younger sister, but for some reason she looks more like an older sister. Commander Su Xiao guessed that it might be related to the thickness of the armor on her chest.
Su Xin hasn't seen the giant wrench and cat claw drill that come with the two of them, but they should be very similar to the illustrations in the game, so her personalities shouldn't deviate much either.
While Su Xin was observing the two Bri sisters, the Bri sisters were also secretly looking at her.
In their eyes, Commander Su Xiao was a commander who looked very young, very cute and pretty, but at the same time very serious, and old-fashioned to the point of being scary.
After all, Commander Su had never smiled since he met the two of them. He just stared at them from a relatively close distance, occasionally squinting his eyes. These behaviors made the Bri sisters feel panicked.
"Please... please don't look at me like that anymore, Purin... it's... it's so scary..."
"Sorry... We got lost... It took us a long time to find a place to eat..."
Commander Su paused when he heard this, and seeing "Food" still sleeping soundly on the bed, he blinked in surprise, then took two steps back and stopped observing closely.
The Brie sisters finally breathed a sigh of relief, retracted their tails, patted their knees and stood up, huddled together timidly and dared not speak, which hit the little conductor who was unable to express his feelings hard.
At first, she didn't feel the reality of her expressionless face until Ruyue asked her timidly if she was angry. Then she realized the inconvenience of her situation.
But now is obviously not the time to worry about this. What we need to do now is to first figure out Bri's basic situation and then consider whether a breakthrough experiment is needed.
After all, in the previous game, Brie could be considered a consumable, and the official did not seem to give a very clear answer to explain Brie’s situation after the breakthrough (I heard that the comics have an explanation, but I haven’t read it yet...).
If in reality, Brie still exists as a consumable, Commander Su Xiao feels that with his own personality, he would never be able to use Brie in exchange for an improvement in the ship girl's abilities.
Thinking of this, Commander Su's originally relaxed mood suddenly sank a little, but facing the timid Bri, she had to adjust her mentality and asked in a softer tone:
"Hello, I'm Su Xin, the commander of the port area. Are you guys...um...full now?"
The Brie sisters were both stunned, and then the elder sister replied: "Well... three... three points full, purin..."
Commander Su felt relieved that they could communicate normally. After thinking about it, he sat on the other side of the bed, helped Eldridge lift the quilt, and started a formal conversation with the Brie sisters.
"When did you get here today?"
"Hmm... I don't know either... But the sun hadn't set yet at that time..."
The young commander asked again: "So after you arrived, were you lost?"
When someone asked, Brie started to complain angrily, "Yes! My sister used a drill to find the way, so we couldn't find the place, buli!"
"I didn't mean to do that! Who knew the floor was so unstable..."
Seeing that the two were about to have a conflict, Commander Su Xiao hurriedly stopped them and continued the previous topic, "So you are all Bri... What should we call you?"
"Ah... I'm the prototype Purin, you can just call me Purin (Note 1), I'm very precious! Ah, I'm also very powerful Purin!"
"I am the general-purpose Brie, so my name is also Brie~ But my sister can only be responsible for a part, but I am responsible for more ship girls, so I am the more powerful Buli~"
Commander Su Xiao did not explain much. After all, in reality, the ship girls were not divided into gold, purple, blue, or white. Each one of them was a very precious existence. Therefore, she skipped the question about the scope of responsibility and asked about the way to break through.
"Can I ask... how did you help the ship girls break through? Do you need any materials, or... sacrifice something else?"
"Hmm? Just... 'purin~' for a bit, right?"
"Yes, yes, just let me 'buli!'"
The extremely abstract description left everyone confused, and the Brie sisters became a little panicked when they saw everyone's confused expressions.
The order they received was to live in this port area for a period of time, to help the ship girls make a breakthrough, and to record the changes before and after the breakthrough, the success rate, adverse reactions and other values, and then transmit them back.
If the ship girls are unwilling to let them do it, there will be no experimental data, and the researchers will definitely be disappointed. Brie and the others don't want to see that kind of expression on the face of the person who made them, so they strongly recommend that they
already.
"I am very useful, right? Can you try it first? Purin! It's quick and it doesn't hurt at all, Purin!"
"Hmmmm! Bri is also very powerful! Anyone who is 'buli' by Bri will become even more powerful!"
Actually, it is called a test, but Yubari has privately told the commander that there have been a large number of samples for this experiment. The arrival of Burri this time is actually the team leader's thanks to Yubari, so safety is guaranteed.
But Su Xin has always been on the sidelines regarding such unknown things. It is really difficult for her to suddenly choose two people as test subjects.
