"Don't talk nonsense, my feelings towards my expelled sisters are pure, there is no such thing as burning desire..."
Just as he finished speaking, Royal Ark realized that the other party was looking at him as if he were looking at garbage, the kind that couldn't be recycled and would pollute the environment even if buried in the ground.
"...Actually, I'm very curious, why does it have to be a destroyer?" This was the first time that little Zeppelin asked this question after coming here so many times.
Royal Ark was also stunned, obviously not expecting such a serious conversation between the two of them, "Uh... if we really look into this matter, it's your fault, Iron Blood."
Little Zeppelin glared at her, "Take out the 'you guys'."
"Oh, well, it's all Sangvis' fault. They let the 'Wolf Pack' sink our merchant ships. In order to resist those submarines, the Royal Navy formed a 'Submarine Hunter Killer' fleet."
Royal Ark showed a silly smile, raised his thumb and said proudly: "Guess... who is the only core of the fleet?"
"...It's not you, is it?" Little Zeppelin looked at him helplessly.
"That's me!" Royal Ark puffed out his chest, "During that time, I lived happily with my sisters every day."
"Although the effect of the action was not very good, I really felt the cuteness of expelling the sisters."
"More importantly, when I was about to sink in the Iron Blood submarine attack, I drove my sister away and saved almost all the humans on my body."
The boss of the Royal Ark was alone, holding his face and looking into the void, "Ah... Expel sister... I feel so safe, so cute and kind..."
Little Zeppelin really couldn't stand the Royal Ark's behavior, especially since the other party was coveting his best friend regardless of age difference, which made him very angry.
"Can you be more serious?"
Royal Ark glanced at the small aircraft carrier opposite and instantly switched to sage mode, "Oh, what's up?"
"...Are all of you royal family members so weird?"
"How can this be strange? I heard that you have been with the little angel for a long time. Don't you have any admiration or preference for her?"
Little Qi Peilin was stunned. She had never really thought about this question. Of course she admired him, after all, she was still young at the time, and it was Su Xin who accompanied her through life and death.
But preference... maybe there is too much? When there is only one person with you in difficult situations, some feelings will emerge.
She even felt that if she used one sentence to describe her relationship with the little commander in the other world, it would probably be... "more than friends, but less than romantic"?
"It's a pity that it's one-sided..."
"...But that's not a reason for you to be a pervert." Little Zeppelin came back to his senses and glared at the man.
Royal Ark didn't feel anything at all. She had been subjected to this kind of look countless times in the military police in various places, but she still managed to survive until now, didn't she?
"How am I abnormal? Don't talk nonsense." Royal Ark cleared his throat, "I am just carrying out my mission to make the expelled sisters happy, okay?"
"It's unforgivable to expel the sisters. Of course, I know about this, so isn't this just keeping my distance for their benefit?"
"My love is absolutely pure, it is not mixed with those... those weird things, please don't wrongly accuse a good person."
Little Zeppelin glanced at her, then looked out the window at the heavy rain, "...Then I'll get involved."
"Wha...what?!" Royal Ark was shocked, "You...you...you have that idea of expelling my sisters?!"
"Defamation is punishable by cutting off the tongue. I didn't say I was seeking eviction. I clearly said—
"A little angel? That...that won't work either!"
Little Zeppelin was puzzled. "She's not a destroyer. Why are you reacting so strongly?"
Royal Ark confessed affectionately, "In my eyes, the little angel is unique. She has the same pure eyes and soft scent as her younger sister... Even if she grows up, I will still like her!"
"You pervert, you are not allowed to like this!"
"I like it, I like it! You are the pervert, you are so timid!"
"I...I'm shivering!"
"You'd better wait until you grow up to be the same age as yourself, otherwise the little angel will be sent to jail because of you!"
"I used to be much bigger than you!"
"Things are different now, you iron-blooded little steel plate."
"Don't insult me with Hipper, you...you...take my shot!!"
"boom!"
At a scene where the gendarmerie was carrying out a mission, Hipper looked at his gun barrel that had inexplicably fired and felt strange. He raised his hand, rubbed the tip of his nose, and sneezed.
"That Eugen guy... definitely said something bad about me again!"
Chapter 664 Belated Enlightenment
"Ah, it's raining so hard, how come it starts raining so quickly?"
Ning Hai used chopsticks to quickly beat the egg liquid in the bowl, looking at the rain outside and muttering to himself, "Hmm... Susu and the others probably won't be back."
Pinghai, who was washing the pot, thought for a moment with his hands full of bubbles, then tilted his head and suggested, "Well... let Pinghai go and deliver it."
"No, no... It's okay to eat takeout occasionally. The dishes we cook are not very spicy. She may want to change her taste. It's good."
"Besides...if you go out in such heavy rain, you'll get wet even with an umbrella, right? You'd better not go. It will be very cold for the round trip."
"Well...sister is right, the pot has been washed." Ping Hai nodded cutely.
"Just put it there. There's ice cream in the freezer, and there's some leftover snacks in the fresh-keeping layer. If you're hungry, you can eat some first."
Pinghai nodded when he heard that, ran over to bring out the snacks, fed one to his sister who was tying an apron, and was then sent out by her as she said she didn't need help.
In fact, being responsible for the meals of the entire port area is a relatively large task, but fortunately, the ship girls don’t actually eat a lot. The one with a really big appetite is the human Su Xin.
Maybe because her transformation into a ship girl has not been completed, Su Xin's appetite has become very large while she has gained a strong physique. She can eat the portion for two people in one meal.
Afraid that the two sisters would be troubled by the kitchen, Commander Su did mention the idea of hiring someone to cook, but Ning Hai politely declined.
First, she would have to spend extra money to hire someone to cook. Ning Hai thought it was unnecessary. Chefs who were proficient in various cuisines were very expensive, and the cheap ones only knew how to cook home-cooked dishes. It would be better for her to do it herself.
Second, having more humans in the port area might not necessarily be a good thing. After all, everyone is used to being wild. What if someone gets hurt accidentally when a fight breaks out?
Besides, breakfast doesn't take much time, and lunch and dinner each take an hour and a half, so it doesn't seem particularly busy, right?
Mainly because there is nothing to do during the grass-growing period, they used to rush about for food and clothing, but now it has become a habit and cooking seems more like a pastime.
"Alas... Being too rich is not a good thing. It's so boring to have nothing to do..." Ning Hai said unconsciously in a Versailles tone while pouring oil.
Pinghai, who was sitting outside watching the rain and eating snacks, didn't have so many thoughts. She only knew that she was very relaxed and happy now, and the box of stockings that the little commander gave her was also very comfortable to wear.
It’s a pity that her sister didn’t allow her to wear some of the styles in the clothes, which made Pinghai feel a little regretful, because they were actually quite beautiful.
"Huahuahua99
The rain kept falling, as if it would never stop. The thunder only struck a few times, and now there was no more movement.
Pinghai was in a daze listening to the sound of heavy rain hitting the ground, until she heard something a little different, and then she blinked and came back to her senses.
A figure holding an umbrella appeared in the rain in the distance, and the different sounds came from the umbrella.
"......Um?"
Ping Hai stuffed the last half of the dumpling into his mouth, sat outside the door, propped up his cheek, and watched the other person walk straight towards him.
"Aka… City…?"
In the heavy rain, the aircraft carrier, dressed in white, restrained her fox features. Her clothes were quite wet. At this moment, she looked like an ordinary human being who was a little embarrassed.
"Hello." She smiled uncharacteristically gently.
But Pinghai didn't really buy it. She fundamentally didn't like this Sakura aircraft carrier, but Donghuang's politeness was engraved in her bones, making her reluctant to respond.
"...Hello."
Akagi remained calm. After entering the cafeteria, he closed his umbrella and shook it gently, then tucked his wet hair behind his ears. "It's raining heavily today, so it may be difficult for the commander to come back."
"Oh."
"So...I want to send her lunch."
Ping Hai was relatively young, and he couldn't control his emotions. He didn't stand up, and his face was full of displeasure. "...My sister said that the commander should order takeout himself."
"How can that be? What you make must be better than takeout..."
"Shout, then you don't have to send me, I can go by myself."
Akagi squatted down, lowered his sight to the same height as Pinghai, and then smiled, "If you haven't prepared anything, can I use the kitchen?"
Pinghai looked at her warily, then suddenly stood up and rushed to the kitchen, presumably to complain.
Akagi took a deep breath, exhaled slowly, glanced at his white shirt with dark and light patches, leaned his umbrella outside the door, and walked towards the kitchen.
As soon as she entered, she saw Ning Hai, who had turned off the fire and looked expressionless, and Ping Hai, who was hiding behind each other with a frown on his face. Not surprisingly, Chi Cheng spoke first: "Um... sorry to bother you."
"Indeed, it's quite disturbing." Ning Hai didn't give any face, "Can you leave now? I still have to make lunch."
Akagi secretly clenched his fists, then seemed to remember something and quietly loosened his fists, saying calmly, "It's like this, it's raining too hard today, the commander may not be able to come back, I wanted to help deliver food..."
"Well, no thanks. Eating takeout once in a while won't kill you. It's safer than letting food pass through your hands."
"I...I didn't think so. I did something wrong before, so I thought--
Ning Hai touched his sister's head and lowered his eyes to avoid looking at her repentant expression. "What you think is your business. I said I'm not prepared today, so I'm not prepared."
Akagi stood there in silence for a long time, and finally asked softly: "Then... can I use the kitchen for a while?"
"Whatever, this is not my house, how can I control you?"
The fox, who had changed his appearance, nodded, went to the freezer to find some ingredients, washed them carefully, and cut them carefully, looking quite skilled.
Ping Haizui complained to her sister in a low voice, "What is she doing here...really."
"Don't worry about her, it's just compensation for being late." Ning Hai didn't even intend to lower the volume, "Let her do what she wants, Su Su is not stupid, this trick can only move her at most."
Akagi paused for a moment, then continued working as if he hadn't heard anything.
In fact, Ning Hai was right. She did regret it and realized that her actions were wrong, so she wanted to make up for it. But as for "possessiveness" and "love", she still didn't think there was anything wrong with her views.
In the past, Su Xin would respond politely to her visits, but recently she has been less welcoming. Every time she goes to Yixian, she is told that the little commander has gone out.
This distant attitude was obvious, as if he was deliberately avoiding her, which finally made Akagi willing to step out of the filter and face his current situation.
She wanted to go to Tiancheng to seek advice, but the other party didn't show any reaction when he saw her. All her talk was melted away in the tea, and she was completely rejected.
When she was frustrated, Akagi became more sensitive to the emotions of her surroundings. She found that other ship girls in the port area didn't like her.
No one talks to her during meals, and when they chat with her, they lower their voices. When they meet her on the street, they don’t even look at her.
Akagi was angry for the whole day, but got no feedback. After being angry, he felt endless emptiness.
She obviously lived in a large family, but she seemed to be trapped inside a glass case, being watched coldly by others.
While wandering, Akagi bumped into Shokaku who was passing by. He found that Shokaku was unwilling to say the words that usually hurt people, and he was immediately embarrassed and angry, so he pulled Shokaku aside and asked
Shokaku no longer had a sarcastic attitude, and his tone could even be described as calm, "You've made a big mistake. The commander is willing to take you back, but that doesn't mean he forgives you."
"And we don't even want to see you come back so easily. Do you expect everyone to remain as they are? Senior, look in the mirror. You have never been indispensable."
Akagi panicked and softened her attitude to seek help. Shokaku looked at her for a long time and gently advised, "Come back to your temper, admit your mistakes and make amends. When you really change, people will truly accept you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shokaku shook off her hand and left without looking back.
After Akagi returned, he reflected for a long time and finally decided to turn over a new leaf and become a new person. At least... he had to return to this home before he could talk about anything else.
"...Bento, let's start with the bento."
Akagi used a knife unskillfully to shape the sausages and used a special mold to keep the fried eggs in perfect shape, doing everything with great care.
Ning Hai, who was watching all this coldly, felt sorry for the food.
"...I hope Susu can find the kitchen waste bin."
ps: The process of transformation will be long, from not being able to figure it out to changing my mindset and straightening my thoughts. I tried my best to write this. I dragged it out for so long because I was afraid that everyone was still angry. But if I don’t write it, I feel like the Sakura Empire will all disappear collectively. Sorry, sorry...
Chapter 665: The Dishonest Person
Apart from the inconveniences such as poor ventilation, high humidity, and being unable to go out, Su Xin actually quite likes rainy days.
There is no particular artistic reason. I just like the continuous sound. It keeps ringing but makes me feel peaceful.
The sound of rain recorded in electronic devices is often joked to be the sound of frying eggs, but if you were there, you wouldn't associate it with anything else. It's a great day for daydreaming.
Su Xin happened to be in a daze at this moment
She wasn't thinking about any philosophy of life, but just lamenting that the grass growing period was too stable. Today she could still go out to kill time, but after Haiqi officially started work tomorrow, she would have no reason to come.
