Elder brother's garrison

Page 1070

Xiao Bai suddenly panicked.

For Xiaobai, both Lexington and Chairman Ergou are equally dear to him, and if they were to fight, Xiaobai wouldn't know whose side to take.

“Lexington… well, well, although she’s definitely a very reliable senior—she’s actually quite mischievous, you know,” Ooi said softly.

“After all, she’s Saratoga’s sister.” Kitagawa nodded.

"Then... Lexington and that perverted chairman, did they get into a fight in the office?" Wisconsin asked.

"Fight!" Hindenburg perked up his ears.

"Alright, alright, Hindenburg, it's not what you think. Anyway, quickly cover your ears." Iowa smiled and covered Hindenburg's ears, looking at Little White. "However... speaking of which, although I don't think Lexington is the impulsive type, she might do something that you, Admiral, didn't expect."

"..." Xiaobai was embarrassed.

Xiaobai thinks that what these ship girls said makes a lot of sense.

"Uh... well, anyway, let's get to the office quickly."

Thinking of this, Xiao Bai muttered to himself and quickened his pace.

The office is right in front of me.

The gate was tightly shut.

The soundproofing of the office door was as good as ever; no one standing in front of the door could hear any sound coming from inside.

Xiao Bai didn't dare to knock. She nervously took out her key and gently opened the door.

The door opens.

unexpected.

There were no ear-piercing screams or hellish atmosphere, and no signs of fighting.

"...Miss Naika, is this pressure comfortable?"

"...Miss Naige, how does this tea taste? This is Xiaobai's favorite flavor. If you like it, I'll use my reputation to get you a few pounds right away."

“…Miss Naige…”

“…Miss Naige…”

inside the door.

It was Lexington's warm greeting, as gentle as a spring breeze.

Xiaobai and the ship girls walked into the office.

Only in the office.

President Er Gou sat stiffly in the secretary's seat, sweating profusely as he stared ahead, as if he had experienced some wondrous event he couldn't even dream of.

Right behind President Er Gou.

Lexington stood obediently behind the chair, her jade-like hands gently kneading the shoulders of Chairman Er Gou, a tender smile on her face.

"Miss Naige? What do you like to eat? How about we cook something delicious tonight?"

"Miss Naige, my house is quite large, with a few spare rooms. Why don't you stay at my house tonight?"

"Miss Naige..."

Lexington was incredibly enthusiastic, almost to the point of being overly attentive.

Meanwhile, Chairman Er Gou sat in his seat, enjoying Lexington's shoulder massage, but his face had a horrified expression as if he were being licked by a tiger's tongue.

"……"noob.

Xiaobai had imagined countless ways in which Chairman Ergou and Lexington could get along.

But only.

I never imagined these two people could get along this well.

The world of women... is so complicated.

Chapter 1383 I'm so scared!

Inside the office, besides Chairman Er Gou sitting in the secretary's seat and Lexington behind him, on the other side of the sofa, Renown was also holding a gleaming teapot, pouring black tea for Saratoga, who was carefully holding a teacup.

Saratoga was drinking tea when he turned around and saw Xiaobai and the others walking into the office. His big eyes immediately lit up.

"Little White!" Saratoga slammed his teacup onto the coffee table, then sprang up from the sofa like a spring, charging towards Little White with his long, athletic legs.

Saratoga rushed to Little White's side, opened his arms and ran into Little White's embrace, hugging him tightly and rubbing against him all over.

"Little White, you're back!" Saratoga exclaimed happily, feeling the touch of Little White's body.

"Ah, Saratoga, I'm back!" Little White said she was already used to Saratoga's affectionate gestures. She let Saratoga rub her face against hers, laughing and patting Saratoga's back.

Saratoga's attentive manner caused Ooi and Kitakami, who were standing next to Xiaobai, to exchange a furtive glance, a hint of surprise flashing in their eyes.

Don't be fooled by Saratoga's docile and affectionate demeanor in front of Iniesta.

But in fact.

Unlike her sister, Saratoga is not socially adept. She usually only shows her gentlest and cutest side to people she likes. Conversely, when faced with people or things she is not interested in, Saratoga will not care who you are, even if you are the King of Heaven, she will not even bother to pay attention to you. If you make her angry, she may even resort to violence. Her attitude is that of a complete iceberg little devil.

Both Ooi and Kitakami left the naval base during the coldest period after the previous admiral was lost. They didn't know what Shiro had done to revitalize the naval base after returning to take up her post, but judging from Saratoga's attitude...

This new admiral is really good at training ship girls.

"Saratoga, look who I brought back this time!" Little White gently patted Saratoga's shoulder, gesturing for Saratoga to move slightly away from his chest.

"Who is it?" Saratoga looked up with satisfaction.

Xiao Bai turned slightly to the side, showing Saratoga the large well and the north side of the building beside him.

“It’s Ooi and Kitakami from the naval base. I brought them back,” Shiro said to Saratoga with a smile.

Ooi and Kitakami were both slightly taken aback when they realized that Shiro would specifically introduce himself to Saratoga.

Although the ship girls in the newbie naval base are all sisters and family, the naval base is so big and there are so many ship girls, so even without deliberate effort, the ship girls themselves have their own small social circles.

When Ooi and Kitakami were at the naval base, they didn't have many opportunities to stand out and were always hanging out with Japanese ship girls, so they weren't really close to Saratoga, at most just nodding acquaintances.

—Yes, it's pretty much the kind of relationship that Saratoga would treat like an iceberg.

However, since their admiral had introduced them in this way, Ooi and Kitakami couldn't ignore it, so they waved slightly to Saratoga with a little embarrassment.

“Sa... Saratoga, hello…”

"Do you still remember us...?"

Ooi and Kitakami asked cautiously, forcing themselves to be brave.

They were all thinking about how to defuse the awkward situation if Saratoga suddenly lost her temper and switched to an icy demeanor, saying something like, "Oh, welcome back."

But Ooi Kitakami hadn't finished speaking.

Suddenly, everything went black.

"Ooi! Kitakami! Welcome home!" Saratoga, with a bright smile, opened her arms and hugged Ooi and Kitakami tightly. "I missed you both so much!"

"Huh??" Ooi and Kitakami were suddenly taken aback.

Wait a moment.

This attitude seems a bit off.

Ooi and Kitakami remembered that when they were in the naval base, they might not see Saratoga for months at a time, let alone have any in-depth conversations. Although they weren't exactly bad friends, they certainly weren't that close...

"Eh... so you and Saratoga are such good friends?" Shiro was also a little surprised to see Saratoga hugging Kitakami so intimately.

"Mmm!" Saratoga nodded, obediently snuggling back to Whitebeard's side. "We're good friends!"

"Oh, I see. I never expected that you, Saratoga, liked Ooi Kitakami so much." Xiaobai simply believed Saratoga's nonsense. She reached out and patted Saratoga's head with a smile. "Then we should all get along well from now on."

"Hehehe..." Saratoga enjoyed the white petting with satisfaction.

Daijing and Kitakami fell silent for a moment.

At this moment, Ooi and Kitakami suddenly had a strange feeling, as if they were being loved because of the house.

"Greetings, Master." Reputation put down the teapot, walked up to Little White, and bowed slightly to it.

"Good morning, Reputation—you were walking so fast on the ship that I didn't even have a chance to say hello," Little White said to Reputation with a smile.

"It was an oversight on my part, please punish me, Master."

"..." Xiaobai looked like she didn't know what to say.

Fortunately, Lexington finally spoke up at this moment.

"Reputation, don't make things difficult for Xiaobai anymore. She treats you like a proper sister-in-law, how could she bear to punish you?" Lexington said gently to the ship girls at the door while massaging the shoulders of President Er Gou. "Don't stand at the door, come in quickly."

"...Reputation understands." Reputation lowered his head and took two steps back after hearing Lexington's words.

Xiaobai smiled sheepishly at Reputation, then walked over to the desk of the secretary ship where Chairman Er Gou and Lexington were.

President Er Gou sat stiffly in his seat, his face covered in sweat, exuding an uneasy feeling as if a fierce tiger was sniffing at him from behind.

"Uh... President Sister, what's going on with you and Lexington right now...?"

"Ah, it's like this." Before Chairman Er Gou could answer, Lexington spoke with a smile, "When I came back just now, I saw that Miss Naige was a little nervous, so I suddenly had an idea to give her a massage to loosen up her muscles or something."

At this point, Lexington lowered his head and pursed his lips at Chairman Er Gou.

"Miss Naige, is your shoulder still a little uncomfortable?"

"..." Another bead of sweat appeared on President Er Gou's forehead.

It seems that the massage in Lexington not only failed to relieve Chairman Er Gou's stress in the slightest, but even seemed to have amplified his tension in some ways.

"Oh, right, speaking of which," Lexington stopped rubbing the chairman's shoulders and looked at Xiaobai, "those Deep Sea Deans on the street just now..."

"Their name is Xiaohong."

“…Yes, okay, Little Red.” Lexington smiled. “Have you made arrangements for Little Red and the others?”

"Anyway, I gave them the keys and told them to go to the dormitory first." Xiaobai paused slightly, "Well, it seems like I don't need to worry too much now, but in the second chapter, there are about the same number of Xiaohong and her group waiting for me. It feels a bit bad to leave them in that dark and gloomy place..."

"Ah...it seems it's time to urge the construction team on." Lexington nodded. "Leave this to me."

"Thank you, Lexington!" Little White was immediately relieved when he heard Lexington say that.

Lexington's gaze slowly shifted to the other ship girls around Shiro.

They lingered a little longer on Pompeii and Zara, in particular.

"Hmm, you two are indeed two beautiful new sisters," Lexington said with a smile, withdrawing her gaze.

"Haha..." Pompeii scratched his face awkwardly.

“Lexington, this is the great Pompeii, you can just call her Pompeii. This is Zara, they are the traveling ship girls I met in the small fishing village—which is also the location of the quest.” Xiaobai said.

"So she's a wandering ship girl." Lexington nodded knowingly, quite surprised. "It's really rare for a wandering ship girl to have such a good foundation."

"In short, after the mission is completed, they are ready to join our naval base."

“Yes, you’re very welcome.” Lexington smiled and reached out to take four sheets of paper from the secretary ship’s desk. “In short, we are very happy to welcome you to our naval base—but first, we need to go through some paperwork. Would you be willing to help me fill out these forms?”

As Lexington finished speaking, he glanced gently at Ooi Kitakami.

"Of course, there are also these two old friends who have finally decided to go home."

“…Uh…” Ooi Kitakami looked away somewhat embarrassedly, not daring to meet Lexington’s gaze.

Pompeii and Zara, being long-term traveling ship girls, had almost no ship girl resumes or two-inch blue background photos, making it quite troublesome to fill out the onboarding forms. So Lexington simply carried the office to the photo studio next door and asked Reign to take her, Zara, and Pompeii to take new photos.

After lightly apologizing to everyone and saying that she would be right back, she...

Lexington and Renown then left the admiral's office with Zara and Pompeii.

thump.

The office door is closed.

President Er Gou, who was sitting in the secretary's seat, jumped up from his seat and threw himself into Xiao Bai's arms, tightly clutching Xiao Bai's sleeve, whimpering like a pitiful little girl who had suffered some kind of violence.

"Little White—why are you only arriving now? I! I'm so scared—!" President Er Gou hugged Little White's lower body and burst into tears, her pretty face filled with grievance.

"Huh? President Sister? What's wrong? Did Lexington do something?" Xiaobai was completely surprised that President Ergou would be crying like this, and couldn't help but feel a little strange.

"No."

"She didn't do anything."
