"Well, thank you for your hard work~" Nagashima, who had taken a lot of master-servant gossip pictures, sent them in batches with one click, and then felt satisfied, "Do you want snacks? I have plenty here."
Su Xin glanced at the tidy kitchen and shook her head, "That's not necessary. I've left a trash can for you. Remember not to litter.
Changdao stretched out on the floor, and said in a playful manner: "Yes, sir! Thank you for your generosity and personal efforts! Changdao is grateful for this favor, and is willing to go through fire and water for you! I will do my best--"
"Wow, that's such a coincidence~" The young commander clapped his hands, with a smile that looked a bit like that of a secretary ship.
Someone suddenly felt something was wrong, "...Huh? What? No, this is just a humble remark. I actually
"I've helped you so much, you won't refuse my small request, right...?"
Nagashima was choked, not knowing how to respond, so he moved his legs and kicked the ball of bedding next to him, but was kicked back by the opponent.
"Damn it! They're sleeping at the critical moment. What a bunch of unreliable guys!" The gossip group leader was furious. However, he couldn't refuse the commander's smile, so he could only sigh and nod.
"Okay, okay, who do you want to dig up dirt on?!"
"No, no, no... I just want you to go out and enjoy the sunshine and the scenery." Su Xin touched her chin, "Remember to read carefully. If it doesn't match the information brought back by others, then go again tomorrow."
"What?! Oh no--wait, them! They also gave me advice yesterday! They said that if I catch the maid, I should ask her to help clean the room. I can't do it alone!!"
The vicious one who was pretending to be asleep immediately gave Nagashima a kick on the butt, "You... are selling out your teammates!"
Nagashima: "Damn it! Aren't you selling me out by pretending to sleep?! Come and suffer with me!!"
Vicious: "Ah... I finally convinced Sister Jean Bart to move here... Now because of you, I can't fish anymore..."
Changdao: "Who told you to litter? I was ready to put it in a bag, but you said something like 'It's so tiring to go out and throw away the garbage'!"
Vicious: "Didn't you agree too...?"
Little Commander: "Remember to clean those tables and chairs too?"
Nagashima: “Ugh—Damn it!!!”
Su Xin smiled and looked at the two people who were fighting passionately on the floor, then walked to the other two lumps of bedding and pulled out Changchun who was covering his ears and Nicholas who was still sleeping.
Little Commander: "Hehe...don't even think about escaping."
Changchun: "Wow... If I had known earlier, I would have slept with Sister Ninghai and the others..."
Nicholas: “…”
Chapter 887: Handy
Compared to those lazy bums, Su Xin's process of seeking help from the royal family seemed much easier.
Needless to say, Javelin happily trotted off to find Z23 after receiving the mission. I guess Ayanami couldn't escape the fate of being dragged out either.
As for the last piece of the four-member puzzle, Rafi, it depends on the abilities of the three of them.
Anyway, Su Xin felt that with Javelin's increasingly skilled skills in acting like a spoiled child and Ayanami and Nimi's upright words, the problem could be solved in a few minutes. After all, they had always had a good relationship.
The firefly and the little swan were also willing to help. The former couldn't sit still at home, and the latter succumbed to the "snack reward" promised by the little commander.
The female general and the brave one were easier to deal with. Su Xin called them "female general teacher" all the time and called everyone "Your Majesty the Brave" whenever she saw them. She coaxed them into obedience and was almost about to pat her chest to make a promise.
Guanghui went out with Unicorn and Neptune, ready to take the opportunity to give this shy "sister" some lessons and consolidate her knowledge of operating carrier-based aircraft.
Kewei chose to team up with little Cheshire to carry out the mission without hesitation. After all, this cute cat would not bring her any pressure in terms of seniority, and it didn't matter if it was a little wild.
Reputation is too serious, Glory is rather careless, and combined with the experienced Warspite, the three-person team should not have any major problems.
The maids, including Xiao Beifa, did not have to take action. They had to take care of Su Xin and go around to each cottage to avoid the appearance of the "same kitchen as the Nagashima family".
As for Su Xin, who completed the task in a very short time, she was now resting in Perseus' room.
There were already enough people out patrolling the sea area, so she didn't need to run to the next place to ask for help. Besides, the sun was getting hotter outside, so it would be nice to take a break.
"And Gugu is very cute."
"Goo!"
Su Xin, holding the owl, looked up at Perseus and asked expectantly, "What is it saying?"
"...It said, 'Of course.'" The light aircraft carrier, who was combing her hair, had no expression on her face. "Wouldn't it feel fatter? Like your human sport... shot put?"
The round-faced fat chicken shouted angrily: "Gu!! (Don't believe her!!)"
Su Xin hesitated for a moment, then really weighed it. It was indeed quite heavy. "Haven't you been trying to lose weight before? Is there no effect?"
Perseus: "...Although it is also a bird, judging by its behavior...it would be more appropriate to compare it to a penguin or ostrich."
Gugu puffed out his chest: "Gugugugu~ (Yes, I am that strong~)"
"...You seem to have misunderstood." Perseus began to speak venomously, "I meant that your wings are highly degenerate, not much different from those of flightless birds."
"Gu-yi-! (You are bullying the bird too much!)"
Su Xin let go, letting the owl flap its wings and take off from her arms, landing on the table in front of Perseus to start a new round of debate.
The apprentice maid Xiao Beifa came in from the kitchen, dodged the man and the bird, and approached very carefully with the tray, and gently placed the freshly brewed black tea on Su Xin's table.
"Commander, please give it a try."
"Hmm? Ah, thank you. Did you make this yourself?"
Little Beifa placed the tray in front of her belly and bowed slightly in a formal manner. "Yes, the head maid has taught me many times."
"Is that so? Besides this, what else have you learned?" Su Xin took a sip and couldn't really tell the difference. "Well, it's not inferior to Sister Beifa. It tastes good."
These words seemed to give the trainee maid great confidence. She smiled happily for a long while before adjusting her expression and answering seriously:
"There are also cleaning tasks and etiquette, which are relatively simple. The head maid wants me to learn from the most basic things! Although she never gives any comments..."
The little commander, who was not very good at tasting tea, patted the other person's head and said, "Sister Beifa is very strict about her job. Don't be discouraged. In fact, you have done a good job."
"Really? Thank you, Commander." Little Beifa tilted his head back and smiled adorably, "When I start learning how to make cakes, I'll give them to the Commander to try!"
"it is good."
"Hmm·Oh yeah, tea...done, next is...ah."
"What's wrong?" Su Xin glanced at the notebook the other party had opened.
Xiao Beifa took out a pen and drew a line, then looked at Su Xin, "The commander's next schedule should be to go out for inspection. Um... are you going now?"
"Hmm? Is this the schedule for today?"
"Yes, the head maid wrote it to me specially, in case I forgot... What do you think, Commander? If you don't want to go, then skip this item. The next item is... um, play?"
It was past nine o'clock and the temperature was gradually rising, but this was nothing to the ship girls. Looking around, they saw many unfamiliar ship girls starting to go out in the distance.
Considering the goal of this summer activity, Su Xin drank the remaining black tea in one gulp, then picked up the hat and put it on, "Well, call Sister Dido, let's go."
"Ok."
Xiao Beifa swore that she took out the umbrella to help Su Xin, but she was not tall enough, and after she handed it to her, the other party opened it and gave it back.
In desperation, she could only hand the parasol to Dido and ask her to help take care of the little conductor.
It was a pity that Su Xin herself did not seem to intend to stay in the shadows. After dodging, she raised the brim of her hat again and said, "Just fight. I have to let everyone see me."
The simple-minded little Beifa didn't quite understand her commander's intention, so after being politely rejected, she looked a little confused while holding the folding umbrella.
Su Xin didn't plan to explain. Firstly, they were outdoors and it was not convenient to speak. Secondly, there was no need for her to let the little one come into contact with such complicated things. Little Beifa just needed to think that she was making friends.
“I was actually planning on doing that.”
Su Xin was mentally prepared and decided on the first person to talk to, a capable woman with long black hair, the White Eagle battleship Pennsylvania.
The reason why I chose her instead of others was because of her serious personality and mature mind.
Compared to a destroyer that might run away out of fear, the battleship Pennsylvania is obviously a more suitable subject for conversation, and can also better spread information about itself among the group of wandering ship girls.
As a person who traveled through time, Su Xin, who has mastered the basic personality of the ship girls, has a higher success rate than others, allowing this information to bring her positive benefits.
"Is it…Pennsylvania?"
"Hmm? It's me, you are..." The ship girl tilted her head and looked over. After thinking for a moment, she suddenly realized, "Oh... You are the commander who landed on the island last night, right?"
"It's me, um...does everyone know?"
Su Xin folded her hands as she spoke, pinching the hem of her T-shirt. Her movements were not large, and she did not avoid the other person's gaze while speaking.
This small action left Pennsylvania with the initial impression of "shy but brave", which made the responsible battleship want to protect her and his words became gentler.
"Oh, sorry, was I too loud?"
"No, no, I was just too nervous. This is the first time I've traveled so far since I came from Donghuang..."
Pennsylvania was quite surprised. She thought this time would be the same as before, with a local commander coming to gather everyone and talk nonsense before the event started, and then never to be seen again.
I didn't expect it would be such a little girl. She even overcame her nervousness and ran out to say hello to these stranger ship girls she didn't know at all.
"Is that so... It's okay. I've participated in many activities before and I'm familiar with everyone. Don't be nervous. Everyone is easy to get along with."
Su Xin sighed softly and wiped the sweat off her face with her arm. "Oh, by the way, I almost forgot to introduce myself. My name is Su Xin? Just call me by my name, sister."
"Two characters, very Donghuang style. Most of the characters here are four or five characters." Pennsylvania smiled casually and took out a wafer biscuit that was probably made locally. "Oh, want to try it?"
"Thank you... Um, my sisters will prepare drinks for everyone in the middle of the village later. Sister Pennsylvania, remember to come and get them?"
"Ahahaha, really? Don't worry, I will definitely go check it out. This summer is much hotter than in previous years."
"Yeah! Then you continue with your work. I'm going to tell other people the news." The young commander said and waved his hand.
"Go ahead, thank you little one."
Pennsylvania smiled and nodded. When she watched the three people turn around, she vaguely heard a sigh, which made her have a better impression of the girl who came to support her.
"Well, he's a brave child, but Su Xin... I seem to have seen this name somewhere before?"
"Commander, are you nervous?"
"Hmm? No."
"Then why do you pinch the clothes?" Little Beifa held the hem of the clothes and patted it, smoothing out the wrinkles before looking up and asking, "And your voice has become different from usual..."
Su Xin touched the trainee maid's head and thought about the wording. "Because you need to leave a good impression on everyone so that you can become friends faster, okay?"
Little Beifa still didn't quite understand, "If I make my voice softer, will I leave a good impression on others?"
"Not necessarily, because Pennsylvania is a big sister and prefers cute and well-behaved people, so if you want to make friends with her, you can't act naughty, understand?"
"Oh...I think I understand."
"It's okay if you don't understand." Su Xin pinched the miniature maid's cheek, which was soft like jelly, "Because you're already very likable."
Little Beifa, who had never been praised by the head maid, was suddenly praised and looked quite embarrassed, "Yin? Ah, thank you, thank you, Commander..."
"Uh-huh, next one is... well."
Su Xin took a deep breath with a sweet smile, raised her hand to fold the cuff of her right short-sleeved shirt, and then wrinkled the hem of Xiao Beifa's shirt again, then she stepped forward under the puzzled gazes of the two maids.
"Excuse me, is this... San Juan?"
The light cruiser with light brown hair was cleaning up the scattered garbage around him. Hearing the sound, he turned around and replied, "Ah, it's me. Who are you...?"
The young commander touched the back of his head embarrassedly, causing his ponytail to become a little crooked. "I'm the temporary commander of this event. My name is Su Xin. I arrived last night. Today I wanted to say hello to everyone..."
"Temporary Commander...?" San Juan grabbed a garbage bag filled with paper balls, plastic bottles, and other items, and glanced at the two maids behind him. "Uh...didn't you check your appearance before you came out?"
The young commander was stunned, looking at Dai Meng, "...Huh? The appearance is...ah, should I wear the non-commissioned officer's uniform?"
"No, no, although the T-shirt itself is quite casual, the wrinkles are too obvious. And the sleeves... the same goes for your hair. You just messed it up."
"Ah? Ah... Thank you for reminding me, I don't pay much attention to these things... Every time the maids help me fix it, it becomes like this again in a short while..."
San Juan, who was destined to work hard, frowned, resisted the urge to help, and turned to look at Dido who was hesitant, "Aren't you going to help your commander tidy up?"
"Eh? Ah... Yes, yes!"
San Juan looked at the girl who was obediently letting the maid do whatever she wanted and reminded her, "Hey... Commander Su, you should pay more attention to your daily life. This is related to your image."
Su Xin raised her hand to touch her head again, but she held back. "I see, you are right. I will remember it and ask Santiago to make some changes when I get back."
"Santiago? Is she at your place?" As the youngest of the Atlanta class, San Juan had a very deep impression of his third sister. "Is she really noisy?"
Su Xin: "Uh... a little bit? The speed of speech was a little fast, but everything else... was fine..."
San Juan shook his head. "You don't need to help beautify it. What San Diego is like has long been spread all over the forum. Many of my namesake ships have posted complaints, saying that they are worried about this sister..."
"Eh? Really? I don't think so... But you, are you... cleaning?" Su Xin, who had tidied up, looked at the garbage bag in the light cruiser's hand.
With Santiago's relationship, San Juan seemed to be much friendlier and nodded immediately, "Yes, garbage is often washed up on the table, and when the wind blows, it flies everywhere."
