Teacher Li Shizhen stood to the side, and sighed helplessly.
These students have such vivid imaginations that they think of ship girls as some kind of Monkey King who can brave mountains of knives and seas of fire.
Chapter 144 Squeezed Together
The atmosphere in the classroom subtly turned somewhat somber.
"Have you ever been on a cruise ship?" At this moment, Li Shizhen asked the students below.
The students below remained silent.
These days, not many people go on cruises.
"Have you seen the news?" When no one answered, Li Shizhen asked again.
"Seen."
"Seen."
"Seen."
The students answered sporadically.
News is something almost everyone has seen.
"News occasionally reports about ship girls. Do you remember what the ship girls looked like back then?" Teacher Li Shizhen nodded and followed up on the question.
“Walking on the water looks so cool!” A student raised their hand.
"It has steel ship equipment."
"Fire the cannons, launch the planes."
The students chimed in, each taking turns offering their opinions.
The atmosphere in the classroom began to heat up.
Naval High School, despite its name, teaches a little military knowledge. However, when it comes to advanced technologies like ship girls, this knowledge is basically never mentioned before students graduate from the school and don't necessarily go on to attend naval university.
Therefore, these students' understanding of ship girls is still at a rather superficial level.
"These two ship girls can do all of what you've mentioned." After clearing his throat twice and waiting for the students to quiet down, Teacher Li Shizhen slowly spoke.
……
A brief silence.
A thunderous cheer erupted in the classroom, like a floodgate bursting open.
Yes! That's it! That's it! This is exactly what the students want to see!
"Did you ship girl sisters bring your weapons?" some curious students asked, raising their hands.
"Huh? You mean the ship's armor? It's on me." Enterprise glanced in Xiaobai's direction, and after receiving Xiaobai's tacit approval, took out her ship's armor plate from her ship's armor space.
The ship's equipment space, which seemed to appear out of thin air like magic, shocked the students.
"Wow! That's amazing!" Many students stared in astonishment at the ship's equipment on Enterprise.
Ship equipment space is a technology exclusive to ship girls, and even a novice was amazed for a long time when he first saw it.
"How do you ship girls stand on the water?"
"It feels like stepping on the ground."
"Ship Girl Sister, can you fly a plane?"
"Yes, but it's too dangerous to keep this indoors."
"Does this ship girl also fly planes?"
"No, I'm not an aircraft carrier ship girl, but I can launch missiles."
-
These high school students, who were at least high school students, became as excited as if they had seen their favorite celebrities. They bombarded the company and Changchun with questions, and only calmed down with the help of their teacher, Li Shizhen.
No matter what, classes still need to be held, and Teacher Li has already made an exception and given the students most of the class time to talk to the ship girls.
Because most of the first lesson was wasted on interactions between companies and students in Changchun, the pace of the course had to be accelerated. The remaining half of the lesson was quickly covered by the experienced teacher, Mr. Li.
Xiao Bai stood at the back of the classroom, learning from Teacher Li's teaching techniques.
After class, the students lingered, still looking at the Enterprise and Changchun. To be honest, they hoped to see these ship girls in battle, but unfortunately, that was impossible.
The company and Changchun had to leave with Xiaobai.
After all, they are ship girls, and active ship girls who follow Xiaobai. If other classes find out, this place will probably be packed with people in a little while.
Teacher Li Shizhen waved to Xiaobai understandingly, indicating that he could leave at any time.
Xiao Bai and Changchun Enterprise left amidst the students' reluctant gazes.
After walking in the corridor for a while, people would occasionally pop up and point at Xiaobai. Only after going up the stairs did fewer people start looking at Xiaobai and the two ship girls behind her.
Seeing that the situation had eased, Changchun breathed a sigh of relief and revealed a somewhat tired look in his eyes.
"Are you very tired?" Hearing this dejected voice, Xiaobai turned to look at Changchun and asked.
Watching Changchun and the company being questioned by so many students, even Xiaobai, an observer, felt a little dizzy.
"Standing for a while isn't tiring, but being constantly bombarded with questions is a bit overwhelming," Changchun said.
"Thank you for your hard work," Xiaobai said apologetically.
"That's alright, but aren't you leaving soon?" Qiye didn't seem as tired as Changchun. Having dealt with people coming to worship and burn incense all year round, she seemed to have developed a high level of resistance to such scenes. During the question-and-answer session, Qiye answered all the questions calmly, relieving a lot of pressure for Changchun.
"Well, you two are here as ship girls after all. If you stay too long, you'll get surrounded by people. Let's go home together after I've finished dealing with things here," Xiaobai said.
"It was pretty scary..." Changchun patted his chest, recalling the passionate students in class, and murmured with some lingering fear.
Being constantly questioned by students is nothing like playing with Fubuki at the naval base; it's completely devoid of fun.
After Xiaobai led the company and Changchun up a few floors, there were basically no people left.
These floors are used to store school materials, and are rarely visited.
"What does the Admiral want here?" Enterprise asked, looking at the deserted corridor.
"I'm looking up information. That's the main reason I came to school today," Xiaobai explained as she walked into the electronic reading room.
An electronic reading room is a place with many computers for people to search for information.
As a teacher, Xiaobai has access to the electronic reading room and can use her teacher account to access all the school's electronic materials.
To ensure a good environment for each user, the electronic reading room is divided into rooms with one computer. After completing the simple procedures at the registration desk, Xiaobai, the company, and Changchun squeezed into a small room.
An electronic reading room can probably only accommodate one adult moving around freely, so it would be difficult to squeeze in two underage individuals (not counting their bust size) like Xiaobai and Changchun, plus a mature female businessperson.
Seeing that neither of the two ship girls intended to leave, Xiaobai felt embarrassed to throw them out.
The three of them were pressed together, and any movement they made resulted in close friction.
Xiaobai sat in front of the computer, with the two ship girls standing close together behind her.
As soon as Xiaobai sat down, he could feel a warm, smooth touch on the back of his head and neck.
Even through the clothes, you could feel that ultimate softness, something Xiaobai had always dreamed of.
The faint whimpering sound from Changchun reached Xiaobai's ears.
"If you feel it's too crowded, you can go outside and wait for me for a little while. I can stay here by myself." Xiaobai turned around and smiled at Changchun, who was blushing and pressing his chest against the back of his head.
"It's alright, it's alright." Changchun quickly waved his hand. "Isn't the Admiral uncomfortable?"
"I don't feel uncomfortable." Xiaobai not only didn't feel uncomfortable, but even felt quite comfortable when her head was resting on Changchun's chest.
"Then let's leave it at that..." Changchun replied in a low, hesitant voice.
Changchun's face became even more radiant. She lowered her head, and her long, white, silky hair cascaded down her flushed ears, as if it could seep through.
Although Changchun is just a destroyer, there's always a kind of alluring charm in her eyes that only adults possess; she's truly a femme fatale.
Xiao Bai thought that if Tirpitz had used Changchun as the main character in his book instead of himself, perhaps the sales would have increased significantly.
"Oh ho, this is the computer." At this moment, Enterprise pinched her chin and stretched her head in front of the computer screen. Changchun, because of her height, could put her chest behind Xiaobai's head, but Enterprise was taller than Changchun. As she bent down, Xiaobai felt that the sky darkened as the two dark figures approached.
"Strictly speaking, this is a display screen," Xiaobai explained. "If a company grows even a little bit, I won't be able to see it anymore."
"Oh, sorry, I got a little excited." The company then realized that it was blocking Xiaobai's view and quickly straightened up.
Because the company's daily life has been taken care of by Yorktown Hornets, they have had relatively little exposure to these technological products, so they couldn't help but be curious when they saw Xiaobai using a computer.
"The computer that Tirpitz often plays with at home is also a computer."
"Ah, even something that small is like that?" The company looked as if it had discovered a new continent.
Xiao Bai smiled.
She turned around, opened the school calendar, and searched for Bai Yinwu's name.
High schools with ties to the military require students to fill out very detailed forms upon enrollment, which can be accessed and viewed through a dedicated account in the classroom.
A spreadsheet with a white background and no blue background was brought to Xiaobai's face.
Xiao Bai examined it carefully.
"Huh?" As he looked at it, Xiaobai frowned.
"Admiral, what's wrong?" Enterprise asked.
"His father is also an admiral," Xiaobai said, hovering the mouse over his father's profession. "Attending this school is certainly following in his father's footsteps..."
"Admiral... well, but that kid doesn't seem to be having a good time," Enterprise said.
Xiaobai nodded.
Bai Yinwu lives in a rather dilapidated dormitory building near the school. She checked the apartment layout and found it to be the kind of apartment that's just right for one person, but would be too cramped for two. In addition, based on her observation that Bai Yinwu always goes out at mealtimes, it's safe to assume that Bai Yinwu is currently living alone.
In terms of money, they seem neither well-off nor poor.
Baiyin works as a waitress at a restaurant on weekends, but she doesn't know how much money she earns.
After reviewing Bai Yinwu's information, Xiaobai closed the spreadsheet.
—From all the information available, he seems to be a fairly normal person.
I guess I was just overthinking things.
Chapter 145 Little Changchun, it's you I've chosen!
Xiaobai has no talent for reasoning.
Not to mention Luo Lian's kind of "genius", Xiao Bai himself is not even at the level of a "scholar".
Aside from having a great memory, she was just an ordinary person.
The reason she could deduce the causes of so many events was not because she was particularly talented, but because she had a sufficient and clear grasp of information through her memory. When these fragments of information were arranged in order and placed before her eyes, the truth of the events naturally emerged.
All she had to do was read out these fragments of information.
To put it bluntly, Xiaobai's reasoning is just a jigsaw puzzle.
And now, the pieces of this grand puzzle of truth are fatally incomplete.
Xiaobai is, after all, just a puzzle player who can fill in the gaps between the puzzle pieces.
"I have no clue," Xiaobai murmured.
If only I had my brother's wisdom...
She turned off the computer.
The only information available about Bai Yinwu is the information form from when she enrolled in school. And to be honest, Bai Yinwu felt a bit burdened by being questioned and investigated so many times.
It always feels like they're wrongly accusing an innocent person.
Xiao Bai left the electronic reading room.
Xiaobai skipped her afternoon history class by asking for leave from Teacher Li Shizhen, and then she took her company, Changchun, back home.
After finally seeming to have found some clues, Xiaobai still came up empty-handed, and this feeling of helplessness made him somewhat disappointed.
—Deep-sea reaction is a very worrying thing, especially since this thing has even appeared in Xiaobai's hometown.
At home, Saratoga was playing video games with Tirpitz in the living room, as usual.
It's the one that was featured in the competition at the anime convention before.
