Elder brother's garrison

Page 133

"Commander, is something bothering you?" Hood, who was still holding a teacup, quickly stepped aside, placed the teacup containing black tea on the coffee table, and smiled at Xiaobai.

The three internet addicts sitting together in the living room couldn't help but turn their attention to Xiaobai's unusual reaction.

When Xiaobai gets home, he usually sits on the sofa and quietly watches the ship girls play games; he rarely does this kind of proactive behavior of jumping into the ship girls' arms.

“…I ran into that person again,” Xiaobai said, burying her head in Hood’s chest.

Hood's chest feels strange.

Well, although it's big and soft, it actually feels a bit fuzzy to the touch.

"Who is the commander talking about?" Hood thought for a while but couldn't figure out who Xiaobai had met that would make him so depressed.

"The person who kidnapped me on Colorado Island."

*Crunch*

A crack appeared in Hud's lens.

Saratoga, who was sitting in the middle of the living room, suddenly stood up, his big, bell-like eyes staring at the little white dog in Hood's arms.

"That... what was it called again?" Hood shakily adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose.

“Her name is Muxi.” Xiaobai lifted her head from Hude’s chest.

“Osmanthus... osmanthus, oh, it’s sweet osmanthus, right?” Hu De said.

As a full-time housewife, Hu De knew that osmanthus was actually another name for sweet osmanthus.

"Pfft." Little White was amused by Hu De's words.

Honestly, what kind of time is this to be making jokes like this?

However, when Xiaobai thought of the aloof and intelligent Muxi and the down-to-earth name Guihua, for some reason, her fear of Muxi melted away like snow.

Seeing Xiaobai smile, Hu De's tense mood relaxed. She took off her cracked glasses, smiled, and patted Xiaobai on the back.

"The current commander is very, very strong. That person can't beat you," Hood encouraged.

Although he had many questions to ask, Hu De felt that calming Xiao Bai down was the priority.

Saratoga ran up to Little White.

Osmanthus left a rather bad impression on both Saratoga and Xiaobai. Xiaobai was alright; after thinking about it carefully, it wasn't a big deal. But for Saratoga, her feelings towards Osmanthus were beyond belief.

Saratoga, who has roamed the world for so long, has never suffered a loss at the hands of anyone. Perhaps only Osmanthus, whom Saratoga has been longing to get his revenge on.

“What did she do to you?” Saratoga asked.

"No, I didn't do anything this time," Xiaobai replied.

“Oh…” Saratoga nodded. “So where is she now?”

Saratoga now has the protection of Xiaobai's admiral network and is not afraid of Muxi's ship girl suppression. In addition, she no longer has the so-called "Ayla" identity to suppress her. She is just an ordinary citizen, and Saratoga has a million reasons to attack her.

"I let her go," Xiaobai said.

Saratoga looked at Little White with a puzzled expression.

Xiao Bai wanted to say that Mu Xi was the governor's older sister, but looking at Saratoga's little face, he just couldn't bring himself to say it.

All my words can be summed up in one apology.

"I'm sorry." Xiaobai lowered her head.

Saratoga pouted.

She crossed her arms and sat down on the sofa angrily.

“I’m not the one who’s losing out,” Saratoga said.

“I never expected to run into that person in this city,” Hood said.

Hood's reaction to the osmanthus incident was not as serious this time.

Based on the information Hu De received, Mu Xi didn't seem to be someone with strong malice towards Xiao Bai, but her actions were somewhat excessive.

However, no matter what, Muxi can never be Xiaobai's partner.

"Okay." Xiaobai nodded.

Hood reached out and patted Little White's head.

“Let’s go out with you these days,” Hood said.

Xiao Bai nodded silently.

In the center of the living room, Tirpitz and Enterprise, holding laptops, looked at the three people on the sofa.

Enterprise is a ship girl who just joined everyone and doesn't know that Shiro has been kidnapped.

She was completely baffled by the conversation between Xiaobai and Hude.

As for Tirpitz... maybe she knew, or maybe she just let it go in one ear and out the other.

Tirpitz's thought process is exceptionally simple.

Kidnapped? Oh, you're fine now, so it's alright.

You've received the ship equipment? Oh, and you seem to be doing well in your daily life? Then everything's fine.

Your hair and eye color have changed? Oh, grab this pen and let's learn to draw together.

In other words, as long as Little White stands safely and intact in front of her, whatever she has experienced before is irrelevant to Tirpitz.

Xiao Bai decided to keep the fact that Mu Xi is Mu Yu's older sister a secret for now.

In fact, this news was the main reason why Xiaobai was unusually depressed.

If you were to ask who Xiaobai trusts most right now, then although it's a little embarrassing to say it outright, Mu Yu is her only choice.

This person was both his brother's friend and the one who put him in the position of admiral.

My current status is inextricably linked to him.

The fact that this person was suddenly related to the person who had kidnapped him before was a significant blow to Xiaobai.

After the Corola Island incident, Xiaobai asked Muyu if she knew who the person who kidnapped her was, and Muyu said she didn't know at the time.

Now it seems that Mu Yu is definitely hiding something from me.

For a moment, Xiaobai didn't know how to face this person.

"Um... has the Admiral been kidnapped before?" Enterprise was still a curious child after all. She climbed to the side of the sofa, looked up at Shiro, and asked.

Xiao Bai gazed at the company's large, clear blue eyes, like those of a lake.

Suddenly, she jumped off Hood's arms and sat down directly opposite the company.

Then Xiaobai put his hands together and bowed to the company.

"May the company bless you."

"Admiral, you're doing this again!" the company protested, embarrassed.

Strangers are fine, but the way the admiral does things makes the company feel particularly awkward.

"I always feel that praying to a business can improve its luck, and a lot of annoying things can be resolved quickly," Xiaobai said.

"No way!" Enterprise shook her head quickly, her blond hair flapping behind her. "You'd better work on those annoying things yourself, Admiral!"

"That's right." In any case, Xiaobai felt much better after paying respects to the company.

The room felt filled with a cheerful atmosphere after everyone had paid their respects to the company.

-

After saying goodbye to school, Shiro will be preparing to return to the naval base in two or three days.

After meeting Muxi, Xiaobai lost the desire to accompany the ship girls to the amusement park. For some reason, the family stayed at home and watched the three internet addicts play games for two days.

Hood and Missouri have also started saying goodbye to the ladies next door these past few days, taking away a lot of their contact information and gifts before they leave.

Then, the day before Xiaobai and the others' train was scheduled to depart arrived.

Xiaobai originally thought that this day would be the same as before, spending it at home with the internet, and then the next day she would hurriedly take the ship girls onto the train to continue being an admiral at the naval base.

However, on this very day, when Missouri returned home from grocery shopping, she told Xiaobai something.

"Admiral, there's a girl downstairs looking for you."

Chapter 167 Yuxiu is truly a magical place

Because of the encounter with Osmanthus, all of Xiaobai's ship girls have been accompanying her when she goes out these past two days.

Xiaobai and the family's ship girls went downstairs.

Then she saw Luo Lian standing downstairs in her building.

Luo Lian stood with her hands behind her back, leaning against the wall beside her, wearing a large straw hat on her head.

Even though Luo Lian's face was covered by a huge straw hat, Xiao Bai could still recognize her by her hands, feet, and figure after spending so much time with her.

Luo Lian turned her head and saw Xiao Bai.

She unconsciously tilted her head, as if to confirm whether the person in front of her was Xiaobai.

After a while, she took off her straw hat and walked towards Xiaobai.

Luo Lian doesn't seem to have been sleeping well these past few days; her complexion looks a bit unhealthy, and her eyes are slightly red and swollen.

However, despite her somewhat haggard appearance, Luo Lian's aura was no less powerful than before.

She strode aggressively up to Xiaobai, meeting Saratoga's gaze from behind him with equal force.

For a fleeting moment, Xiaobai felt that a fierce electric spark was even emanating from the center of the two girls' gazes.

Luo Lian is truly a remarkable person; these days, there aren't many young girls who dare to rival ship girls in terms of presence.

"Lianlian..." Xiaobai had been scolded by Luo Lian at the coffee shop in Lianhua Port before, so she was still a little hesitant to talk to Luo Lian now. "How did you find your way here..."

Luo Lian silently shifted her gaze to Xiao Bai.

She silently observed and sized up Xiaobai.

Finding Xiaobai wasn't difficult for Luo Lian.

Compared to the previous baseless disappearances from the human world, this time Luo Lian only spent a few days finding news of Xiao Bai.

For example, you can sneak into a police station to investigate surveillance footage, or look for information in the ticket office of a train station. It's quite easy to find things like that.

After arriving in Yuxiu, Luo Lian found out where Xiao Bai lived in just two or three days.

I haven't encountered anything too troublesome.

Luo Lian quietly looked at Xiao Bai, who seemed to have changed.

She pursed her lips.

Xiao Bai felt uneasy under Luo Lian's gaze.

Xiao Bai knew that he had changed a lot. If he jumped in front of his mother now, she might not recognize him at first glance.

—What should I do? Is the change too drastic? Has Luo Lian come to dislike me?

—Yeah, if someone suddenly changes so much, it'll definitely disgust other people...

Thinking this, Xiaobai couldn't help but shrink back and lower her head.

However, Luo Lian's thoughts were not what Xiao Bai had predicted.

The first half was pretty much the same. Xiao Bai's changes really surprised Luo Lian, to the point that even she had to carefully confirm before daring to come over and recognize him.

As for the second half, that's a completely different story.

--good……

--good……

—So cute! Aa ...

Luo Lian reached out and covered her mouth, trying to keep her serious expression from crumbling.

—My judgment was right after all!

—Xiao Bai! Xiao Bai is so cute!!!

—She's still the kind of cute girl that makes you want to hug her tightly and rub her face against yours!
