Elder brother's garrison

Page 2181

Xiaobai brought the ship girls from Chapter 8. They were all at the training ground just now. After Jinan used the modification ray, only Jean Bart among all the ship girls entered the modification state...

Xiaobai is actually quite confident in the quality of his ship girls.

But to everyone's surprise, even among the rookie naval ship girls, at this moment, only Jean Bart possesses the potential for missile capabilities...

Ugh.

Xiao Bai sighed.

"Jinan, if it's convenient for you, could you also use the modification beam on Nia's ship girls?" Xiaobai said to Jinan.

"Huh? Is it for use by other people's naval base ship girls?" Jinan asked.

"Ah."

"I'm fine with it... but Admiral, have you thought this through, this whole thing about boosting other people's ship girls' combat power?" Jinan said to Xiaobai, her hands behind her back, her big sea-blue eyes blinking. "Missile ship girls aren't something to be taken lightly. Who knows, a naval base that gets a missile ship girl might become much stronger and threaten your position in the future..."

“Nia is my good friend, it’s okay.” Xiaobai smiled at Jinan and raised his hand to rub her short pink hair. “As for Nia… you met her when she was still a research and construction machine, right? She wants to compete for the next top ten admiral qualification, and I also hope to add some usable combat power to her.”

"Uuuuuuu..."

Jinan's head was being rubbed and shaken by Xiaobai, so she quickly covered her head and took two steps back.

"I know, I know... The Admiral is such a kind person."

As Jinan spoke, she hugged the two pink, fox-ear-like ends of her hair by her ears, pouting and muttering to herself.

Xiao Bai looked at Jinan and smiled without saying a word.

Actually, Xiaobai also wanted Jinan to return to the newbie naval base and continue searching for ship girls with potential missile qualities within the entire naval base.

However, after much deliberation, Xiaobai realized that among all the technicians in the world capable of performing comprehensive missile shipboard modifications, only Yubari was truly trustworthy. At this moment, Yubari was busy with Jean Bart's missile modifications; she couldn't be in two places at once, nor did she have the energy to handle multiple tasks simultaneously. Even if Jinan found ship girls with potential missile capabilities, those ship girls would simply have to wait in line at Yubari's modification workshop. Therefore, Xiaobai's idea was that even if Jinan set off now, the ship girls would ultimately have to wait in line for modifications. So, it would be better to wait until Jean Bart's modifications were completed before sending Jinan back to the newbie naval base to select ship girls.

Anyway, SuperBig and the other side are pretty busy...

There's no rush to bring her back to Jinan and send her back to the newbie garrison after things calm down in Chaoda and over there.

As for this period of time.

Let Jinan give Nia's ship girls a "transformation" in the temporary garrison.

Xiao Bai looked at Jinan, then looked up at the blue sky outside the renovation workshop, and thought to himself.

……

With this thought in mind, before I knew it, the sun had set and the sun had risen again.

unconsciously.

Three days have passed since Jeanbart's renovation.

Steam filled the restored bathhouse of the temporary garrison.

In the pool, two snow-white figures nestled intimately together.

One of the figures was tall and voluptuous; she sat on the edge of the pool, the water reaching up to her arms.

The other figure was much smaller, and the water had already reached above her shoulders.

In the tranquil pool, Xiaobai sat sideways on Nanxing's lap, her head gently resting against Nanxing's chest.

The beeping sounds of electronic instruments could be heard intermittently in the air.

While enjoying the softness emanating from Nanxing's body, Xiaobai leaned against Nanxing as if she were sitting on a sofa, holding up her phone and swiping the screen incessantly.

The screen displays the Admiral's Forum page.

The Admiral's Forum page refreshed again and again, and the content was basically dominated by topics related to "salvaging ship girls".

Xiaobai was scrolling through her phone, reading with great interest, when suddenly, at a certain moment, as if sensing something, her fingers stopped scrolling, and her eyes widened slightly.

Xiao Bai's breathing suddenly became more rapid.

"……What's wrong?"

Holding Xiaobai in her arms, Nanxing immediately sensed the change in Xiaobai. She lowered her head slightly and looked at Xiaobai.

"..." Xiaobai turned off her phone and looked up to meet Nanxing's gaze.

Nanxing's face was so close, yet even at such close range, there was not a single flaw on Nanxing's exquisite face.

Steam droplets condensed on Nanxing's face and slid off.

Xiao Bai stared at Nan Xing's face for a long time, and suddenly, a bright smile appeared on her face.

"Sister Nanxing—"

Xiaobai placed the phone on the edge of the repair pool, then hugged Nanxing from the front and rubbed against her chest several times.

"...?"

Nanxing stared blankly at Xiaobai.

"Thank you for your company during this time! It's so good to have you by my side..." Xiaobai said with some reluctance, feeling the touch from Nanxing's body.

“…” Nanxing blinked blankly, but still nodded subconsciously and said to Xiaobai, “…Me too.”

"Let's go, Sister Nanxing."

Xiaobai smiled at Nanxing, then lowered her head, reached into the water, pressed on Nanxing's thigh, and got off Nanxing.

"Aren't you going to continue soaking?" Nanxing asked, looking at Xiaobai who had gotten off her.

"Hmm... I'm done soaking." After getting up, Xiaobai pinched the back of her long white hair and smiled at Nanxing, saying, "I've finally had enough soaking these past few days, let's go out!"

"Oh……"

Looking at Xiaobai's smile, Nanxing thought for a while, nodded, and slowly stood up.

Hua Ba Ling Lin Qi Jiu Wu Ba Jun La——

The sound of water running sounded.

After changing their clothes, Xiaobai and Nanxing left the bathhouse one after the other.

Standing at the entrance of the restored bathhouse, Xiaobai looked at the sun-drenched scenery, took a deep breath, opened his arms, and smiled with relief.

Just now.

Xiaobai's ship equipment is finally repaired!

congratulations!

No more spending an entire day soaking in the repair bath to fix ship equipment!

An atmosphere of freedom and harmony!

How beautiful!

Little White stretched in the sunlight and looked back.

Nanxing, still enveloped in a thick mist, slowly followed Xiaobai out.

Nanxing, who had just finished bathing, had a faint blush on her snow-white face, and her hair was a darker color. Combined with her light and lonely temperament, this made her, who was already beautiful, even more charming.

"……What's wrong?"

Nanxing noticed that Xiaobai was staring at her, so she subconsciously reached out to tidy her hair behind her ear and asked.

"Sister Nanxing, you've changed so much these past few days," Xiaobai said with a smile as she approached.

"What changes?"

"I still remember the first day you bathed with me, you only soaked for a few hours before you became so dizzy that I had to let you rest at the naval base for a night to feel better." Xiaobai took Nanxing's hand and said to her, "But look at you now, after soaking with me for so long, Nanxing, you can no longer stay in the bath for more than a few hours. When you soak in the recovery pool, your complexion is getting better and better!"

“…” Nanxing suddenly realized, her gaze shifted to the side, and for some reason, the blush on her cheeks deepened, “…maybe I’ve gotten used to it.”

"Hehe, Sister Nanxing, starting tomorrow I won't have to take baths anymore. When you come to my place again, I can play with you!"

"...Aren't you going to take on the challenge of salvaging ship girls anymore?"

"Ah... this..." Xiaobai's excited expression froze as she pulled Nanxing's hand and lowered her head. "It's... it's being prepared..."

"..." Nanxing tilted her head, looking at Xiaobai with a worried expression.

“Speaking of which, we could go check out the modification workshop,” Xiaobai said to Nanxing. “My ship girl is still undergoing modifications there; we can go and see how it’s progressing…”

"Um……"

Nanxing listened to Xiaobai's words.

Nanxing and Xiaobai left the bathhouse and headed towards the renovation workshop.

The renovation workshop is located quite far inside the temporary garrison, some distance from the bathhouse at the main gate. It would take about ten minutes to walk there.

We treated the journey as a stroll.

When Xiaobai and Nanxing arrived at the renovation workshop, Richelieu was wearing a maid outfit and sweeping fallen leaves outside the workshop.

"Admiral Lu Lin...and Admiral Nan Xing, greetings to both of you."

Richelieu saw Xiaobai and Nanxing. She put her broom aside, quickly ran over to the two of them, and bowed slightly to them.

These past few days, besides soaking in the repair pool, Xiao Bai has been coming to the renovation workshop almost every day to supervise Jean Bart's renovation progress, making him a regular at the renovation workshop.

Over time, she became quite familiar with Richelieu, who was temporarily residing there.

Richelieu's reaction to seeing Shiro is no longer as awkward and stiff as it was when he first joined the naval base.

This was truly an unexpected gain.

"Admiral Lu Lin, aren't you going to soak in the restoration pool again today?" Richelieu placed one hand on her chest, first bowing politely to Nanxing, then looking at Xiaobai with some curiosity in her eyes, "Why did you come at this time?"

Chapter 3058 An Unexpected Attempt

"I've finished soaking in the repair pool, so I don't need to soak anymore," Xiaobai said to Richelieu with a smile, holding Nanxing's hand.

“Ah… could it be…” Richelieu listened to Little White’s words and a flash of realization appeared in his eyes.

“That’s right.” Xiaobai nodded.

“…Congratulations, Admiral Lu Lin.” Richelieu bowed to Xiaobai and said earnestly.

“…?” Nanxing looked at Xiaobai and Richelieu in a daze.

Richelieu and Xiaobai smiled at Nanxing.

Although Nanxing and Xiaobai have been honest with each other for so long, and the two of them hug and cuddle in the repair bath every day, Nanxing still doesn't know that Xiaobai has ship equipment.

Nanxing, of course, had no idea that Xiaobai had stayed in the repair pool for so long to repair the ship's equipment.

Nanxing still believes that Xiaobai simply liked taking baths and that's why she did it.

It's truly fortunate that Nanxing trusted Xiaobai completely. If it were any other top ten admiral who didn't know Xiaobai's secrets and had spent so much time with Xiaobai in the repair pool, they would more or less have some doubts about what happened to Xiaobai...

Of course.

Xiaobai wouldn't do that to any of the top ten admirals besides Nanxing.

"How is Jeanbart doing today?" Xiaobai asked Richelieu.

“Reporting to Admiral Lu Lin, Yubari just came out this morning. She said that the renovation of Jean Bart is going very smoothly and is nearing completion.” Richelieu nodded and turned to look at the renovation workshop. “You see.”

Following Richelieu's gaze, Xiaobai and Nanxing looked toward the center of the workshop.

In the center of the workshop, there was a gleaming missile battleship rigging. Countless connecting wires were attached to the rigging, some bundled together and some separate, but most of them were pointing toward the sterile room of the modification workshop.

“Jean Barth’s ship equipment modification was completed this morning. Yubari moved the ship equipment out to save space,” Richelieu said to Xiaobai and Nanxing. “Next, Jean Barth in the sterile room will start receiving the new ship equipment. It’s just a matter of when he will wake up from his slumber.”

"Oh...the modification is progressing so quickly." Xiaobai nodded, his eyes lighting up as he looked at the gleaming missile battleship's rigging in the modification workshop.

“Hmm… Yubari is very experienced and highly skilled. Because she was prepared, she saved a lot of time… But as for when Jean Bart will wake up, that’s up to her,” Richelieu said.

Did Yubari say how long it would take?

"It can take three or four days at the shortest, and one or two months at the longest."

“That’s pretty much the same situation Missouri described back then,” Xiaobai laughed.

"Um... excuse me, how long did it take Missouri to wake up?" Richelieu asked Little White with some anticipation.

“Missouri woke up very quickly. Yubari said it would take her several months to wake up, but at that time… um… wait…” As Xiaobai was speaking, she suddenly looked at the guided warship equipment in the modification workshop, suddenly closed her mouth, and nodded her chin thoughtfully.

"Admiral Lu Lin?" Richelieu heard half of it, but seeing that Xiao Bai didn't speak, he became a little curious.

"...Hmm, so that's how it is...wait a moment." Xiaobai thought for a while, then walked alone to the ship's equipment in the modification workshop, stood on tiptoe, and carefully inspected the equipment.

If Xiaobai is not mistaken, Jean Bart's guided-missile naval equipment is a replica of the Missouri's modification plan...
