"Invisibility, a characteristic of the ghost ship? Maybe my eyes are special, don't worry about it." Jiang Cheng spread his hands. He finally understood the problem. Wasn't Mary Celeste's performance just now just like that of an invisible person?
"Ghost ship... How did you find out that I'm a ghost ship..." Mary Celeste felt like the entire ship was seen through. How did she do that when she was just a human? Even the ship girl couldn't detect her existence.
"The ghost ship, isn't it right there? In this way, its identity is naturally not difficult to infer." Jiang Cheng pointed to the quiet ghost ship on the seashore.
"I see... I'm Mary Celeste, a sea ghost born in a storm. Just as you said, I'm a ghost ship girl. I was rude just now, please forgive my mistake." Mary Celeste apologized sincerely, and the white and tender waves on her chest swayed as she lowered her body slightly. The curve hidden under the black cloth was particularly attractive.
"It's okay, you didn't touch it anyway." Jiang Cheng shook his head, indicating that they were all small matters.
"May I ask you are."
"I'm Jiang Cheng, a commander passing by."
"Commander..." Mary Celeste was obviously stunned when she heard these three words. She seemed to have thought of something and then asked.
"Is it the commander who only exists in legends?" Mary Celeste obviously knew more than that fool from Royal Fortune.
"The legendary commander... I think so." Jiang Cheng nodded. They must be talking about the same commander, right?
"What about your ship girls?"
"It's a long story..." Jiang Cheng patiently told Mary Celeste the bizarre story that happened to him. Mary Celeste probably hadn't communicated with other people for a long time, so she listened very carefully, as if she was listening to a story.
.....
"So that's it. It's a strange and wonderful story. What are you going to do now?" asked Mary Celeste.
"Find a way to go home. It will be troublesome if you can't go back."
"I will definitely go back. If you need any help from Mary, please let me know." Mary Celeste looked at Jiang Cheng's black eyes. For some reason, she had the illusion that they shared the same suffering. Jiang Cheng also looked a little lonely. Perhaps it was her illusion.
"Can you give us a ride to a nearby island with people? Of course I'll pay you." Jiang Cheng directly expressed his thoughts. If he had Mary's boat, he wouldn't have to build a small boat with Royal Wealth, and he didn't think a small boat could get them to their destination.
He had no intention of getting Mary for free, as he still had some valuables on him. Although he had no interest in money, he also knew the importance of money.
"Reward...I don't need that. If possible, I'd like to exchange it for something else." Mary Celeste smiled slightly, and that smile was extremely provocative.
What she wanted was not a reward, and that thing had no meaning to her.
What she wanted was something else... Her dark blue eyes looked at Jiang Cheng's body, and her smile became even brighter.
"...Hmm..." Jiang Cheng looked at Mary Celeste's smile and felt something was wrong. Did she want to touch him again? Although it was not impossible, it still felt weird.
"Hehe... Although I also want to feel the warmth, I want to hear Jiang Cheng's story more now. If possible, please tell it to me." Mary Celeste was very interested in Jiang Cheng. She had been interested in him since he could see her. Moreover, after she revealed her identity as a ghost ship, he was not afraid at all.
Of course, the most important point is that the warmth she felt from Jiang Cheng's hands made her feel itchy in her heart, and more strange feelings arose.
"My story... is very boring." Jiang Cheng felt that this scene was familiar.
"It's okay, just tell me. I'm really looking forward to it." Mary Celeste's eyes showed some anticipation as she smoothed the hair on her forehead behind her pointy elf ears with her white fingers.
"Then let's start from 230 years ago..." Jiang Cheng's smile froze, and he began to recount his ordinary and boring life. Do the ship girls nowadays like to listen to other people's stories so much?
Of course Jiang Cheng had no intention of deceiving Mary Celeste. Since he had already agreed, he must not lie.
The story spanned a timeline of more than 200 years, and of course most of the time was sleeping time. But even with such a boring story, Mary Celeste still listened very seriously, and the way she looked at Jiang Cheng changed again and again.
It turned out that he also spent a long period of loneliness alone, and she felt the same loneliness. Perhaps they were of the same kind.
"Do you feel lonely after living alone for so many years?" There was an indescribable emotion in Mary Celeste's eyes, as if she was asking Jiang Cheng, or as if she was asking herself, as if she was looking in a mirror.
The moonlight sprinkled on Jiang Cheng's body, and his handsome face showed a bit of confusion. It was obvious that he was stumped by Mary Celeste's question.
If it were before, he would definitely answer no, but now he can't say those two words.
Would he feel lonely? Before he met Javelin and Lafite, he did not feel lonely.
"I am not alone now." Jiang Cheng answered irrelevantly.
"I see." Mary Celeste seemed to understand Jiang Cheng's answer.

29. A hot hug~~~
"Now you are no longer alone..." Mary Celeste said with a little envy. Compared to herself, Jiang Cheng has gotten rid of the 'curse' of loneliness.
"Maybe. I used to be used to loneliness, but it's hard to imagine now." Jiang Cheng also smiled. He has indeed changed a lot.
"I won't be lonely in Jiangcheng anymore. I'm so envious." Mary Celeste raised her head slightly, a few strands of hair fluttering in front of her forehead, her dark blue eyes looking at the waning moon in the night sky, with a bit of loneliness in them.
"Jiang Cheng, I have another request..." Mary Celeste looked at Jiang Cheng with a slightly playful look, and sized Jiang Cheng up again.
What a warm body! Even though he was sitting next to her, she could still feel Jiang Cheng's warmth. Even though the temperature around her was very low, Jiang Cheng was still not affected. He was like a burning flame, making her both afraid and unable to help wanting to get closer.
There is no contradiction in being afraid of fire and yet yearning for warmth.
"Tell me about it, I will try my best to satisfy you." Jiang Cheng did not expect that his body had extra value. As the saying goes, a body is worth a hundred years.
"Can...can I hug...or...can I hold your hand?" Mary Celeste's cheeks turned slightly red, but fortunately the moonlight was dim and Jiang Cheng couldn't see the blush.

Mary Celeste still didn't ask for a hug. After all, it would be a bit too much to ask for such a hug on the first meeting. She decided to wait until later.
But a small request like a handshake is fine.
"Shake hands..." Jiang Cheng was a little confused about Mary Celeste's request. Is it just a handshake? She just wanted to grab his **.
"Yes, let's shake hands. Jiang Cheng's hands are very warm. It's a warmth I haven't felt in a long time. Is that okay?" Mary Celeste looked at Jiang Cheng expectantly.
"Of course." Although he didn't understand Mary Celeste's desire for warmth, Jiang Cheng still stretched out his hand. It was such a simple request, so he just fulfilled it.
Looking at Jiang Cheng's hand, Mary Celeste didn't know how to react for a moment. What she wanted was so close at hand.
After a while, she slowly raised her hand, and her white, cold hand trembled slightly as she touched Jiang Cheng's hand.
Her slender fingers touched Jiang Cheng's palm, and she felt the warmth again. Her fingers trembled as they gently stroked Jiang Cheng's palm a few times, and Mary Celeste's heart also trembled.
This kind of warmth, she longed for it.
Then came the second one, and the third one, their skin touched each other, rubbing slowly, and the cold hands were also given warmth.
That's it... Mary Celeste raised her head and looked at Jiang Cheng with her dark blue eyes, his eyes were full of question marks. Jiang Cheng looked cute like this, and Mary Celeste giggled.
She no longer hesitated, and held Jiang Cheng's hand with her whole little hand. Her slender fingers passed through the gaps between Jiang Cheng's fingers, and their ten fingers were interlocked, leaving no gap between their hands.
The warmth was transmitted between skin and skin. Of course, Mary Celeste felt it was warmth, but Jiang Cheng felt only cold, as if he was holding a piece of ice. However, he had no discomfort from the cold, so he let Mary Celeste play with his hands.
It's okay to touch it, even though it may feel a little strange.
After holding hands for nearly ten minutes, Mary Celeste finally let go, her face flushed with shame, and her skin even felt a little warm.
But she was not satisfied, instead she longed for more warmth.
The pink little tongue gently licked her lips, and there was a strange light in Mary Celeste's eyes.
"Jiang Cheng's hands are indeed very warm... In return, the ghost ship will take you wherever you want to go."
"Thank you very much." Jiang Cheng felt that he was able to get on the boat just by shaking hands, and he felt a little uneasy. How about shaking hands for a few more minutes? ?
"No need to thank me, you deserve it. So before we leave, Jiang Cheng, would you like to visit my ghost ship? This is the ghost ship that exists in the story."
"...That's not necessary." After a "communication" with Mary Celeste, Jiang Cheng finally felt sleepy. Now he just wanted to find a place to go.
"Rejected? I feel a little sad. Of course, it was just a joke. You are always welcome on the Mary Celeste."
"Well, see you tomorrow morning." Jiang Cheng yawned, got up and left.
"See you tomorrow morning..." Looking at Jiang Cheng's back, Mary Celeste's mouth corners slightly raised. She also stood up and followed Jiang Cheng. There was still no sound of her footsteps, but the chill could not be wiped away.
"Mary Celeste, is there anything else..." Jiang Cheng turned around and looked behind him. Before he could finish his words, he felt a faint cold fragrance coming towards him.
The plump and extremely elastic armor hit him hard, and the white palms pressed against his back.
Mary Celeste hugged Jiang Cheng directly, put her red lips gently close to Jiang Cheng's ear, and whispered.
"I forgot that a handshake is only Jiang Cheng's ticket. If other people are involved, more warmth will be needed." Mary Celeste hugged Jiang Cheng tightly. The scorching warmth instantly enveloped her. Her cold skin seemed to be burned and finally had temperature.
So this is what she wanted... a hug.
Most of the plump armor was exposed, with nothing to cover it, but at this moment it was tightly pressed against Jiang Cheng, trembling slightly, with a rich fragrance.
"....So this is to make up for the difference..." Jiang Cheng had no place to put his hands, so he let Mary Celeste hold him as if he was holding a piece of pure natural ice.
So, how did things develop to this point? It started out as just a handshake, and now... it's become a hug.
It was just a normal hug, but Mary Celeste was wearing very cool clothes.
"Haha...that's enough..." Mary Celeste let go of Jiang Cheng, her heart beating wildly under her armor.
"..."
"Or does Jiang Cheng want more? Haha." The white fingers gently stroked Jiang Cheng's cheek, continuing to feel Jiang Cheng's warmth.
Jiang Cheng felt that he was being molested, but he had no evidence.
He reached out and gently pulled Mary Celeste's cold cheek, which felt pretty good.
"This is considered a return gift."
Mary Celeste was stunned, and the smile on her face froze, but she immediately laughed again, and her laughter was quite charming, and the white armor almost broke through the barrier. She licked her lips and said.
“Nice gift..”
30. In-depth understanding?
"Miss Mary Celeste, what she wants is very special." Jiang Cheng didn't expect the ship girl to have such a personality. She was really a little "naughty", so he loosened his hand that was pinching her face.
The warmth on her face disappeared, and Mary Celeste looked at Jiang Cheng with a slightly lonely look.
"Don't you want to touch me for a while longer? Or do you want to touch somewhere else?" Mary Celeste gave Jiang Cheng a look that said you understand. She seemed to have recognized this commander whom she met for the first time.
It was only the first time we met, but it felt like we were old friends. That's not right... She doesn't seem to have many friends...
But now, it seems she has it.
Rather than saying it was given for free, it’s more like I felt it. The feeling of the KanColle is just so strange.
"Eh..." Jiang Cheng sighed, stretched out his hand and tapped Mary Celeste's smooth forehead under Mary Celeste's playful eyes.
"Respect yourself, Miss Mary Celeste."
This brain explosion made Mary Celeste's head buzz. It took her a long time to calm down before she spoke.
"Jiang Cheng is wrong. I just want you to touch my hand... hehe... and just call me Mary." Mary Celeste smiled again, as if she was foolishly laughing at her own appearance just now.
Being treated like a child.
"Mary? It's more convenient to call her that. Okay." Jiang Cheng simply thought that saying fewer words would save some energy, so he agreed without hesitation.
"In that case, I will call you Jiang Cheng, the commander from now on~~" Mary Celeste said with a smile. She unconsciously shortened the distance between herself and Jiang Cheng, her dark blue eyes flashing with a strange light.
As the distance got closer, she seemed to be able to hear Jiang Cheng's rhythmic heartbeat.
It must be scalding hot.
"Huh?" Jiang Cheng was stunned, as if he had heard something extraordinary.
"Haha...of course it's a joke. I still want to get to know Jiangcheng more deeply~~" Mary Celeste really needed time to confirm more and more warmth of Jiangcheng.
The cold hands were gently placed on Jiang Cheng's chest, and the fingers slowly drew circles on Jiang Cheng's skin.
She once again felt the warmth of Jiangcheng.
A cool breath came out of her rosy little mouth, and Mary Celeste looked at Jiang Cheng's pretty face with an extremely seductive voice.
If her horns hadn't poked Jiang Cheng's face, this scene would have been extremely beautiful.
"Sorry, sorry..." Mary Celeste rubbed Jiang Cheng's cheek apologetically, but fortunately she didn't use much force.
"It's okay." Jiang Cheng shook his head, his face still perfect.
