"..." Admiral Fang Jie remained silent. He patted Jin Shiqi on the shoulder and turned to leave.
Seeing Admiral Fang leave, Jin Shiqi, who was rubbing his face, opened his eyes and immediately spoke up.
"Hey! Brother Fang, I heard the whole city is looking for you. What are you doing here!"
“Because I don’t know the answer, and if they come for the answer, they won’t get anything.” Admiral Fang Jie shook his head. “So I can only avoid them.”
"Huh? Why are you hiding?"
"Because those people will get furious if they don't get the answers."
"Uh..." Jin Shiqi was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, "I see!"
"Forget it, there's no point in saying all this. No one will believe me anyway," Admiral Fang Jie sighed.
"Huh? Yes!" Jin Shiqi was taken aback. He patted his chest and interjected, "I believe you, Brother Fang!"
“You believe there is…” Admiral Fang Jie opened his mouth to refute, but after looking at Jin Shiqi’s pure expression, especially the slightly red fist mark on one side of Jin Shiqi’s cheek, Fang Jie hesitated slightly and finally closed his mouth, saying weakly, “…Thank you.”
"Hey! We're brothers, no need for thanks!" Jin Shiqi laughed heartily, then stood up and walked over to Fang Jie, saying, "Brother Fang! I think I understand your situation now!"
"If there's nothing else, I'll be going..." Admiral Fang Jie turned around.
"Hey! Don't go!" Jin Shiqi quickly blocked Fang Jie's way, and said with a smile, "Hmm! After talking with Admiral Fang Jie for so long, I completely understand! It seems that you are temporarily homeless, right, Brother Fang? Then, Brother Fang, would you like to come and stay with me for a few days?"
"Go stay at your house?" Admiral Fang Jie's eyes widened immediately upon hearing this.
“Yeah.” Jin Shiqi pointed behind him, “My home is right here. My garrison may not have much money, but we still have a pair of bowls and chopsticks and a quilt! Hahaha!”
"...You'll take me in?" Admiral Fang Jie immediately turned cold.
Fang Jie, the admiral, instinctively thought, "Are you still thinking about the answer to the scientific research puzzle, trying to get something out of me?"
However, as soon as these words formed in Admiral Fang Jie's mind, he deliberately dismissed them.
—After spending a short time together, Admiral Fang Jie realized that Jin Shiqi was probably not a fool; he didn't have that many hidden thoughts.
"...Why?" Admiral Fang Jie looked at Jin Shiqi with confusion.
"Huh? What do you mean, why?" Jin Shiqi was taken aback.
“I am currently being searched by all the admirals. If they find me in your house, you will be in great danger,” Admiral Fang Jie said.
"Hahaha! Admiral Fang, don't forget, I'm the seventeenth admiral in the world!" Jin Shiqi laughed loudly, "There are only sixteen people in this city stronger than me!"
"...But you got kicked away by two girls on the beach."
"...Uh, that was an accident, they ambushed us!"
“Alright.” Admiral Fang Jie shook his head, but still said, “But I still don’t understand why you took me in.”
“Brother Fang, you probably can’t find anywhere to rest when you’re out here all by yourself, right?” Jin Shiqi scratched his head and said slowly, “You need merit points to buy things in this city. Even if you just go to a convenience store to get a bottle of water, they can see your information when you swipe your card to pay, let alone staying in a hotel or anything like that.”
"..." Admiral Fang Jie remained silent.
"So come to my place then." Jin Shiqi held out his hand. "Don't worry, I'm the seventeenth naval base in the world, I won't betray you, brother!"
"This is our first meeting, why are you helping me?" Admiral Fang Jie asked, frowning as he looked at Jin Shiqi's outstretched hand.
"Hmm? Good question!" Upon hearing this, Jin Shiqi smiled and burst into laughter, patting his chest. "If you're wondering why I'm helping Brother Fang, it's because you're in trouble! This city needs a chivalrous hero to protect it! Since I am the seventeenth naval base in the world, and the seventeenth most powerful admiral in the world, then that hero must be me! In short, I am the embodiment of justice! Hahahaha!"
Jin Shiqi's laughter echoed out of the alley.
"..." Fang Jie, the admiral.
"Hey? Brother Fang, why are you expressionless? Give me some reaction!"
“…Hmm.” Admiral Fang Jie raised his head and glanced at the sky.
Ugh……
Jin Shiqi's words do make sense.
It is indeed difficult to establish oneself in this city on one's own.
With Jin Shiqi's help, there shouldn't be any problem staying at his house until the research and construction machine is completed.
Does this mean my safety during this period is entirely in Jin Shiqi's hands...?
"Thank you... I'll pay your rent," Admiral Fang Jie said to Jin Shiqi.
"Hey! We're brothers, don't talk about money, it hurts our relationship!" Jin Shiqi stepped forward, put his arm around Admiral Fang Jie's arm, and laughed heartily. "Brother Fang, you're the first person I've met in all these years who's willing to talk to me this much. You're a really good person!"
"Are other people unwilling to talk to you?"
"It's not that, it's just that they always like to say I'm crazy."
"..."
Admiral Fang Jie sighed inwardly and looked up at the sky.
I always feel like my life has been full of twists and turns...
Admiral Fang Jie and Jin Shiqi left the alley together.
The sound gradually faded away.
The alleyways have returned to tranquility.
at the same time.
They are thousands of meters apart.
Inside Nia's garrison.
Luo Lian sat in a chair, looking at the ship girls laughing and joking in the pool in front of her, and sighed.
"...Xiaobai, haven't you changed into your swimsuit yet...?"
Chapter 2642 Next Time Forever
After a brief incident in the changing room, Xiaobai, now dressed in her swimsuit, helped the limping Nia back to the pool.
"Nia, how are you feeling now? Are you still dizzy?"
As they walked, Xiaobai asked Nia with concern.
"Hmm...it's...it's alright..."
Nia's gaze remained unfocused as she stared ahead, her reactions slow and dazed, as if she had lost her soul and was completely out of sorts.
When Nia and Xiaobai arrived at the pool, the ship girls around them greeted them with laughter, but Nia seemed not to hear them at all. She didn't react at all, only occasionally coming back to her senses and giving a brief reply when Xiaobai turned her head to talk to her.
"Nia...did she just hit her head...?"
Xiao Bai supported Nia's arm, looked up at Nia's profile, and looked at her with a worried expression.
Just now in the changing room, Xiaobai and Nia accidentally fell to the ground while changing into their swimsuits.
The changing room floor is made of hard wooden tiles.
Because Nia was underneath her, Xiaobai didn't fall and get hurt; in fact, she felt a soft, comfortable sensation.
Conya was different.
Nia caught Xiaobai's entire body weight squarely with her face. When the two fell to the ground, Xiaobai's entire bottom landed solidly on Nia's face. In that instant, Xiaobai could clearly feel the touch of Nia's eyes, nose, lips, and even eyelashes and teeth on her bottom.
The human body is more fragile than we imagine, and Xiaobai was really worried that his shoveling might have caused Nia's head to get sick.
Xiao Bai remembered that ever since he helped Nia up from the floor, Nia had been looking like she had lost her soul.
As they walked, the two returned to the spectator stands at the training ground.
Luo Lian, who had been waiting in the stands for a long time, sensed Xiao Bai's approach. She put down the test paper in her hand and stared at Xiao Bai with wide eyes.
"Xiao Bai, you're here... Hmm?" Luo Lian said, but before she could finish her sentence, she saw Xiao Bai looking dejected. She was taken aback at first, then followed Xiao Bai's arm to Nia, who seemed off, and asked in confusion, "Xiao Bai, what happened to you?"
"Uh...where should I even begin?" Xiaobai rubbed his bottom, looking at Nia awkwardly.
“…Hmm?” Luo Lian noticed Xiao Bai’s touch on her butt immediately. She was stunned for a moment, then straightened up as if she realized something, and stared at Nia with her eyes.
A moment!
Luo Lian's brain started working at full speed.
Why did Xiaobai suddenly touch his butt?
Is there some hidden meaning behind this action?
Could it be that……
Luo Lian's pupils contracted, and her whole body trembled violently. However, she quickly closed her eyes, took a few deep breaths, and calmed her tense emotions.
No, that's not right.
If you think about it calmly, Nia probably wouldn't have the guts...
And the newbie wouldn't agree either...
If that's the case, then there should only be one answer...
"I slipped while changing clothes and fell on Nia," Xiaobai explained to Luo Lian.
"So that's how it is." Luo Lian breathed a sigh of relief. "You're all alright, right?"
"I'm fine, but Nia seems a bit off." Xiaobai shook her head, then worriedly pulled Nia in front of Luo Lian, "Lianlian, take a look..."
With Xiaobai's help, Nia staggered like a marionette and came to a stop in front of Luo Lian.
Nia's state is somewhat like the "soul scattered" state in a certain cultivation novel.
"Could he have hit his head?" Luo Lian stood up. "Let me take a look."
In her spare time, Luo Lian used to read some books and periodicals by rural barefoot doctors for entertainment. In terms of diagnostic skills, Luo Lian could not be said to be more skilled than professionals, but at least she could diagnose common ailments and conditions without any problem.
Luo Lian came to Nia and first took Nia's hand to give her a quick check of her body.
Nia had no bruises or other injuries on her body, and there were no injuries to her knees or elbows.
At least their mobility was not impaired.
So he really did hit his head...
Sigh, if Nia gets a concussion from this, Xiaobai will feel really guilty.
Thinking of this, Luo Lian couldn't help but look up at Nia's face.
Just then, Luo Lian suddenly noticed that Nia's lips were trembling slightly.
Nia seemed to be repeating something in a very faint voice.
"……Um?"
Luo Lian paused for a moment, then thoughtfully leaned closer to Nia's mouth.
"Little... Little White's butt... Little White's butt, hehehe... hehehe... so cute, so soft..."
"Hey Hey……"
"God...hehe...Little White..."
"..."
Luo Lian listened and then fell silent.
Luo Lian lowered her hand and turned her head to look at Xiao Bai.
Xiao Bai stared at Luo Lian and Nia with a worried expression.
"Lianlian, will Nia be alright?"
"...No, she's perfectly healthy," Luo Lian said. "She's probably just a little tired. It's alright, you can let her rest for a while."
"Eh? Really?"
"Ah."
"That's great... I can rest assured now." Xiaobai breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.
“However, Nia needs to rest and can’t go swimming with you, Xiaobai,” Luo Lian corrected.
"Ah... well, there's nothing we can do about it." Xiaobai nodded, looking regretful.
Just then, four destroyers suddenly appeared behind Xiaobai.
The four Fubuki sisters suddenly darted out from behind Shiro and grabbed his arms and legs.
"Hey? Admiral! You've changed into your swimsuit! Want to come swim with us?"
