"..." Frederick the Great remained silent.
"That's interesting. My tactical devices couldn't detect your sleeping state at all. How did you manage to disguise it?"
"..."
“Those deep-sea deans are so afraid of you. Your identity is quite sensitive, yet you still care about their feelings.”
"..."
“Frederick, I have some questions about the battle just now. If you had access to abundant deep-sea energy…”
"..."
"You don't seem particularly afraid of the Admiral's Deepsea Assassin. Could it be that the reason you can't avoid the Deepsea Assassin isn't out of fear, but something else entirely..."
"..."
Frederick the Great walked forward expressionlessly, with Montana following closely behind him like a heavy iron ball in her shackles, constantly trying to talk to her.
Montana's personality traits, in a sense, also make him a social butterfly.
Even though Frederick the Great didn't reply to her at all along the way, Montana continued to chatter incessantly in her ear, showing no sign of being ignored.
Frederick the Great, a man with a rather aloof and cold personality, found a worthy opponent in her.
Xiao Bai looked at the two people on his left and right in front of him and couldn't help but smile.
After leaving the training ground, Frederick the Great headed towards his residence—the prison building of the newbie garrison.
Xiao Bai and his two companions walked through the garden, emerged from a small path, and finally arrived at the entrance of the prison building.
It was still morning, and the naval base was filled with birdsong, fragrant flowers, and bright sunshine.
At the main entrance of the prison building, a beautiful woman in a brown cheongsam stood with her back to the garden, quietly practicing a horse stance.
The woman in the cheongsam was bathed in sunlight, her two long, jade-like white legs extending from the sides of the cheongsam, firmly planted on the floor tiles in a horse stance. Her entire body remained completely still, her figure seemingly blending into nature. Even the early birds would perch on her shoulders, tilting their heads and occasionally pecking at her hair.
When Xiaobai and his group arrived, the birds that had been perched on the woman's shoulders caught the scent of Frederick the Great and immediately flapped their wings and fled in panic.
The woman in the cheongsam slowly opened her eyes, turned her head, and looked towards the garden.
The woman in the cheongsam looked very mature and beautiful. Her facial features were somewhat like those of an eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl, but both her attire and temperament exuded the mature charm of a twenty-seven or twenty-eight-year-old, elegant and reserved, which made people turn their heads.
"Admiral?"
When the woman in the cheongsam saw the three men enter the prison building, her beautiful eyes flickered slightly. She stood up, patted her cheongsam, and tucked her long, jade-like legs back into it.
"Hey, Yixian!" Xiaobai raised his hand and waved at Yixian. "Are you practicing Tai Chi?"
"No, it's just that I haven't exercised in a while, so I'm doing a little morning workout." Yi Xian smiled slightly at Xiao Bai, her gaze shifting to the two people behind Xiao Bai, especially lingering on Frederick the Great. "Is the Admiral going to visit Miss Frederick's house?"
"Yes, is that alright?" Xiaobai looked at Yixian.
“…Since it’s the Admiral’s idea, of course it’s fine.” Yi Xian nodded and said to Xiao Bai, “However…Since Mrs. Lie has entrusted me to be the manager of this dormitory, I still have to fulfill some basic obligations…For example, I will record your visit to Miss Frederick’s house in the commuting logbook. Is that alright?”
"Oh! Sure!" Xiaobai nodded quickly.
Yi Xian gave Xiao Bai an elegant smile. She reached into her chest and gently pulled out a key that carried a faint fragrance and warmth, placing it in Xiao Bai's palm.
"Once the admiral goes in, he can do as he pleases."
"Oh, oh, oh..." Xiaobai held the key in her palm and unconsciously squeezed it.
The key is warm.
Xiao Bai and his two companions used the key to open the prison building and entered it one after another.
As soon as she entered the building, Montana began to observe her surroundings with great interest. She noticed that most of the rooms in the corridor were welded shut, and the walls along the way were covered and reinforced with a sturdy silver-white alloy. Montana raised an eyebrow and began another round of verbal output to Frederick the Great.
"The environment here doesn't look very pleasant. Frederick, do you prefer a setting with more metal elements?"
"..."
Perhaps Frederick the Great was so troubled by this that he finally could not bear it any longer.
Or perhaps Montana finally asked a question that would elicit a response from Frederick the Great.
This time, Frederick the Great did not remain silent. She simply turned her head slightly and glanced at Montana through her gauze-covered eyes.
"...I just have to live here."
“We must live here…” Montana listened to Frederick the Great’s words and subconsciously looked at Little White.
Little White pointed to Frederick the Great's shackles and shook his head at Montana.
Following Little White's guidance, Montana looked at Frederick the Great's feet, and after a while, she nodded knowingly.
“I see.” Meng Da said.
Given Frederick the Great's power, this prison-like building, if truly intended to imprison her, would not have been able to stop her at all.
But Frederick the Great made it clear that she had to stay there...
So it seems that the function of this building, like the anklet on Frederick the Great's foot, is merely to provide a sense of "reassurance" to the other ship girls in the naval base.
Montana, reflecting on this, looked at Frederick the Great with a somewhat peculiar gaze.
“Frederick, you’re quite gentle,” Montana remarked.
"..." Frederick the Great continued walking down the corridor as if he hadn't heard the remark.
Crack...
Crack...
Frederick the Great's shackles made a crisp sound as they dragged across the metal floor.
The room where Frederick the Great now lives is the same room that Yamato Akagi once lived in.
When Frederick the Great opened the door to his dormitory, and Little White and Montana walked in first, Little White looked around the room and realized that the setting was exactly the same as when she first came here and saw Yamato from the deep sea.
The temperature remains excessively cold.
It still has the same color as the ocean.
The room was filled with dark blue walls and furniture. In the small room, which was only a few dozen square meters, there was a desktop computer, but it seemed that the computer hadn't been turned on for a while, as there was a thin layer of dust on the screen.
Xiao Bai walked up to the desktop computer, reached out and gently wiped the screen, glancing at his fingers.
"Could it be... Frederick, you've been in this room for so long and you've never even turned on this computer?" Xiaobai turned around and asked Frederick.
"..." Frederick the Great nodded.
"Don't you like this electronic device?" Xiaobai asked.
"..." Frederick the Great shook his head.
Seeing that Frederick the Great remained silent, Xiaobai subconsciously looked around the room again more carefully.
The room was very tidy, so tidy that it had a cold, deserted feel to it, as if no one lived there.
Upon this investigation, Xiaobai was slightly taken aback before realizing what was happening.
Frederick the Great not only didn't touch the computer, but everything in the room, including the placement and angle of various small items, was exactly the same as when she picked up Yamato from the Deep Sea and left... In other words, it seems that Frederick the Great has hardly touched anything!
Chapter 3118 The Training of Frederick
“Frederick, let me ask you something first…” Little White withdrew her gaze and asked Frederick the Great in a strange tone, “You should know… this room is for you, right?”
"..." Frederick the Great nodded.
"What do you usually do in your room?" Xiaobai asked again.
“Stand still,” Frederick the Great said calmly.
"Just...just standing?"
"Ah."
"Staring blankly?"
"Ah."
"Sleeping?"
"I won't sleep."
"...Besides standing, what else?"
"I didn't do anything else."
"..." Xiaobai frowned as she listened to Frederick the Great's words, then relaxed helplessly after a while. Finally, she looked at Frederick the Great, who had a calm expression, and turned her gaze to the bed.
really.
The bed is so flat it's unbelievable, there's not a single dent.
It seems that Frederick the Great never actually lay down on it.
The new naval base will send the deep-sea Taihou to clean the prison buildings every now and then. However, for Frederick the Great's own dormitory, due to privacy issues, the deep-sea Taihou will not voluntarily enter to clean unless she asks for it.
Xiao Bai recalled that when she was with Frederick the Great in the deep-sea city, she seemed to like to stand alone in the hall when she had nothing to do, like a statue, silent and still.
Xiao Bai initially thought Frederick the Great's behavior was merely an attempt to project authority, but now that she sees it... perhaps she really doesn't have normal living habits.
"In this room, besides standing, did you do nothing else?" Xiaobai asked curiously.
"...and other things as well."
"I knew it... What else have you done?"
"Change your clothes." Frederick the Great lowered his head and took out a set of cartoon pajamas from his ship's equipment space. "When someone brought this in, they said I should change into this when I'm in the room."
At this point, Frederick the Great slowly raised his hand and began to unbutton his tattered military uniform.
Frederick the Great, without any expression of shame, put the cartoon pajamas in his hand on himself.
Xixisuosuo.
Little White stared wide-eyed at Frederick the Great's body.
Montana, standing to the side, gazed at Little White's profile with a smile on his face.
"Does the Admiral like this type?" Montana asked.
"Cough cough cough!" Little White coughed quickly and looked at Montana, "Don't joke around, this is a very serious occasion."
“Okay, okay.” Montana nodded and replied with a smile.
Seeing Montana's knowing expression, Xiaobai felt a little guilty.
While Xiaobai and Montana were chatting, Frederick the Great had already changed out of his cartoon pajamas.
Frederick the Great stood on the ground, his hands hanging naturally at his sides, looking at Little White.
The combination of cartoon pajamas and Frederick the Great's temperament... Xiaobai had previously imagined it might have seemed a bit jarring, but when Frederick the Great, dressed in cartoon pajamas, stood in front of him, he realized it was actually quite a nice pairing.
It has a kind of... endearing contrast.
Xiao Bai composed himself and looked at Frederick the Great.
“Frederick… While it was a last resort that I had to let you stay here, I still hope you can have some freedom, at least when you’re in the dormitory,” Xiaobai said to Frederick the Great. “You don’t need to be too restrained in your room; you can use whatever you want here.”
"...How do I use it?"
Frederick the Great looked at Little White.
Frederick the Great's tone was unusually innocent.
Xiao Bai was speechless for a moment after being stumped by Frederick the Great.
Xiao Bai looked around.
Could it be that... the reason Frederick the Great didn't use these things was because she didn't know how to use them?
No way……
Could it be that Frederick the Great actually... lacked common sense?
Her lack of common sense is so extreme it's practically disastrous...
Thinking of this, Xiaobai sighed and waved to Frederick the Great.
"Frederick, come here."
"..." Frederick the Great walked up to Little White.
Xiao Bai pressed his palm down again.
