Elder brother's garrison

Page 2707

Surrounded by people, Yi Xian's face was calm and serene, without any ripples.

"Ah... Sister Yixian, are you taking a nap?"

"Really? It's quite noisy here right now... The construction site nearby keeps making a lot of noise."

"Hmm...that's true."

"So, should we shake her now?"

"This...maybe Yixian is practicing martial arts? And others can't touch her?"

"That's probably unlikely... What ship girl would... No, if it were Yi Xian, it doesn't seem impossible..."

The group discussed it, then fell silent.

Finally, Changchun came to Yixian's side thoughtfully. She bent down gently and focused her gaze on Yixian's ear, which was hidden among her dark hair.

The moment Changchun saw the earplug in Yixian's ear, he opened his mouth.

"Ah, I see." Changchun stood up and pointed to Yixian's ears, saying to everyone, "Admiral, look, Sister Yixian has a pair of earplugs in her ears."

"Earplugs..."

Upon hearing the sound, everyone immediately gathered around and bent down to examine Yixian's ears.

"Yes, when we arrived, we heard a lot of construction noise coming from the nearby site. I guess Sister Yixian couldn't stand the noise, so she put on her earplugs and rested," Changchun said.

"Oh...that's true...it's a bit noisy over there at the construction site."

"So, it's okay to touch Yixian now?"

"Hmm...maybe?" Changchun herself wasn't sure. She stared at Yixian in the old chair, lost in thought.

Chapter 3810 The Fisheries Administration Family

In this world, there are some people who have entered a special state and should not be touched casually.

For example, there are people picking their ears with ear picks, elderly people lying on the ground whom you've never seen before, people building triangular towers with playing cards, and people staggering by carrying a basin of boiling water... These people all have a unique "don't touch strangers" aura that makes people around them subconsciously keep their distance and carefully ensure that they don't have any physical contact with them.

Although the categories are slightly different, Yi Xian was shrouded in a similar aura at this time.

In the eyes of Xiaobai and her group, Yixian seemed to have merged with nature. She was so immersed in this natural world, so perfect and harmonious, that Xiaobai and the others couldn't bear to reach out and disturb her.

Could this be the legendary realm of martial arts grandmaster, the unity of heaven and man?

Changchun tried to reach out and touch Yixian, but her hand stopped hesitantly an inch in front of Yixian's shoulder.

"Uh...I...I probably can't..." Changchun withdrew her hand, covering it with the back of her hand and speaking to Xiaobai with a hint of regret in her eyes, "Admiral, how about...you wake up Sister Yixian instead?"

"Me...me?" Xiaobai stammered awkwardly, looking at Yixian sitting on the old chair. "This..."

Actually, Xiaobai also felt a lot of pressure.

The current state of Yixian is less about "not letting anyone touch her" and more about "making people reluctant to touch her," which makes Xiaobai feel a bit awkward.

hiss……

Or maybe we should just wait for Yixian to wake up on her own... we still have plenty of time...

Just as Xiaobai was thinking this, Jinan and 1913, who were beside her, suddenly seemed to sense something. They turned their heads and looked back at the way they came.

Beside the road that Xiaobai and his group had just passed, on another road leading to another route, a remarkably slender figure in light green appeared in everyone's sight, carrying a bamboo basket.

A slender figure in light green was accompanied by four girls of varying heights and statures.

The young women, dressed in dark blue and gold-red clothes, walked and stopped intermittently. From a distance, they spotted Xiaobai and her group. They paused, stood on tiptoe, and looked over. After a few seconds of hesitation, as if they had discovered some treasure, they quickly grabbed the tall, pale green-clad figure and hurried over.

"Admiral, it seems someone is coming over there," 1913 gently reminded Xiaobai.

"Oh?" Xiaobai looked in the direction of 1913's voice.

Then, Xiaobai's gaze was drawn to the five ship girls in the distance.

The five ship girls in the distance seemed unusually close, pulling and tugging at each other as they hurried toward him, with occasional urging voices like "Hurry up, hurry up," "Slow down, slow down," and "Faster, faster!" coming from their faces.

Finally, the light green ship girl at the head was the first to catch the eye of Xiaobai and his group.

Upon seeing the ship girl clearly, Xiaobai raised an eyebrow in surprise.

—This is a tall ship girl with a silver bun hairstyle, wearing a light green cheongsam embroidered with floral patterns. She has delicate and pretty features and a gentle temperament. She carries a bamboo basket in one hand and has a blue ribbon tucked into her arm. She is being pushed and shoved by the other four ship girls as she walks towards them. Under the high slit of her cheongsam, her long and shapely legs are clad in green embroidered shoes. Large areas of her snow-white leg skin are constantly exposed with each large step she takes, making her particularly eye-catching.

"Hey, hey, wait... wait... Pinghai, Zhaohe, slow down, slow down... the soup in the basket is going to spill..."

As the light green ship girl came into view, everyone could hear her making a pleasant and soft voice as she was being pushed and shoved by the ship girls behind her, and she approached at a very fast speed.

"Huh? Isn't that Sister Chongqing?" Changchun tugged at Xiaobai's sleeve in surprise when she saw the ship girls in the distance. "Admiral, look, it's Sister Chongqing, and Ying Ruizhao and Ning Haipinghai too!"

"So many people..."

Xiao Bai nodded, looking at Chongqing in the distance as she approached with her bamboo basket, murmuring to herself.

At this moment, Chongqing, which was in the distance, also approached the group. She saw Xiaobai from afar and quickly raised her arm under the control of the ship girls behind her, waving her arm at Xiaobai.

"Admiral, Admiral! Oh... Admiral, hello there—"

Chongqing called out, finally arriving before the crowd.

Behind Chongqing, four ship girls emerged as if a Gundam had disintegrated.

One of them was wearing a dark blue short skirt yukata and one-legged fishnet stockings, with a light yellow single ponytail. She had a bright and capable young girl vibe. Next to her was a girl who looked remarkably similar to her, but dressed in the opposite way. She had her hair in a single large bun and wore a gold and red cheongsam.

"Admiral, I never expected to see you here. It's a pleasure to meet you!"

"Wow~ Admiral! Look this way!"

The ship girl in dark blue and the ship girl in gold and red smiled and greeted Xiaobai.

"Chongqing, Ninghai, Pinghai... Hello everyone." Xiaobai smiled and waved to the ship girls, then looked at the remaining two ship girls.

The two remaining ship girls behind Chongqing were like twins, with almost indistinguishable facial features. Their clothing was also almost identical, a standard school uniform for female students from a certain period. The only difference between them was their eye color and hairstyle.

"Good morning, Admiral. Ying Rui greets you." The more demure ship girl greeted Xiao Bai.

"Hahaha! Admiral, I didn't expect to catch you here! You'd better spend the whole day having fun with Zhaohe!" Another ship girl with a lively expression laughed and jumped up.

"Zhaohe, don't cause trouble for the Admiral!"

"Hey—no way, the admiral's job is to play along with us! Yingrui, you're too rigid! You don't know how to be flexible at all!"

"If you say that, I'm going to tell Sister Yixian on you."

"Hey! No, no!"

Zhaohe immediately quieted down, pouting and swaying to express her frustration.

Xiao Bai smiled as she took in Ying Ruizhao and the two men, nodding to them in greeting.

Good morning, Yingrui and Zhaohe.

"Greetings, Admiral!" Upon hearing Xiaobai's voice, Ying Rui and Zhao He immediately looked at Xiaobai and responded in a clear, unison voice.

Xiaobai sighed inwardly, her gaze sweeping over the new ship girls in front of her.

Chongqing, Yingrui, Zhaohe, Pinghai, Ninghai...

I never expected to run into all five of them here...

These five are all veteran ship girls in the newbie naval base. They have been with the base longer than most ship girls. They are rarely seen during working hours. I have only spent time with them during the admiral's routine home visits and visits.

Although they didn't spend a very long time together, Xiaobai was quite impressed with them...

Take Chongqing for example...

Xiao Bai looked up at Chongqing.

Chongqing, carrying a bamboo basket, immediately straightened up after feeling Xiaobai's gaze, a little embarrassed.

If Xiaobai remembers correctly... Chongqing wasn't always called Chongqing. Her original ship name was "Aurora Goddess," and some people also called her "Aurora." However, after a special modification, her ship girl equipment changed, and she became the Chongqing we know today.

Reforming and changing nationality...

While there are indeed obvious memorable moments, this kind of thing isn't very rare in the Kantai Collection community. For example, Changchun, who is currently with Shiro, was modified from "Guogan," so it's not something that has never happened before or since.

"Hello, Chongqing sisters, Pinghai, Ninghai, Yingrui, Zhaohe!" Changchun bowed to the ship girls and smiled.

Hello, Changchun!

Pinghai and Ninghai, Ying Ruizhao and others immediately waved.

"Oh, isn't this Changchun? Hello!" Chongqing smiled at Changchun, then looked at the ship girls beside Xiaobai, blinking her eyes in a daze with curiosity. "Eh... well, who are these people next to the Admiral...?"

"This is 1913, and that's Jinan," Xiaobai introduced the remaining ship girls.

"Oh! It's the new ship girl sisters! Oh dear... you scared me..." Chongqing patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief, saying with a smile, "I was worried that I had forgotten the names of my sisters who live with me, which would have been very rude. Oh, you're the new sisters... that's great."

In 1913, Jinan and Chongqing both sent greetings to each other.

The person in Chongqing smiled and placed the bamboo basket on Yixian's tea table.

“1913… Jinan… Judging from this name, it seems to be a ship girl from our faction.” Chongqing opened the lid of the bamboo basket, took out the pure white, sweet and soft pastries, and smiled as she presented them to Xiaobai and her group. “So we’re all sisters then. Come, come, if you don’t mind, have some osmanthus cake.”

The moment the osmanthus cake was taken out, the air was immediately filled with a strong osmanthus fragrance.

Chongqing distributed osmanthus cakes to everyone. Holding the plate, she looked at Yixian, who was lying on the old chair, and stared at her curiously for a while.

"Speaking of which, what is Yixian doing here..."

"Ah, Yixian is in harmony with the heavens and man..." Xiaobai was just about to explain, but before they could finish speaking, they saw Chongqing reach out and pinch Yixian's shoulder and give her a push.

"Yixian~ wake up." Chongqing reminded her with a smile.

"She, she actually made a move!!!" Xiaobai and his group looked at Chongqing in astonishment. "Chongqing actually ignored Yixian's 'Keep Out' policy!"

"Hmm? What's your stance?" Chongqing looked at the crowd.

After Chongqing massaged her shoulders twice, Yixian finally made a move. She gently stopped rocking in her old chair, gracefully reached out to remove her earplugs, and slowly opened her bright eyes.

It turns out that Yixian wasn't sleeping.

"Chongqing, you're here again... Didn't I tell you before that you don't need to be like this every day..."

However, before Yixian could finish speaking, her gaze was drawn to the scene before her.

Yi Xian saw that ten people were looking down at him from above, just like spectators in a zoo watching a giant panda up close.

"..."

Yi Xian stopped talking abruptly.

Chapter 3811 Senior Yixian

Yi Xian lay on the chair, her eyes wide open, staring blankly at everyone.

The crowd surrounded the old chair like stars around the moon, quietly looking down at Yi Xian.

Ten gazes looked down and one gaze looked up.

The distant sky still echoed with the deafening roar of construction work.

However, the environment in which Yixian and the others were at this moment was filled with an unspoken and indescribable tranquility.

Yixian seemed to be pondering why so many people were around him.

Xiao Bai was also thinking about how to explain this scene to Yi Xian.

The quiet atmosphere lasted for several seconds.

Finally, a crisp clap broke the silence.

"Snapped!"

Chongqing, standing among the crowd, gently raised her fair hands and clapped them together crisply. Then, drawing everyone's attention, she smiled and moved her clasped hands to her cheek, revealing a radiant smile to Yixian, who was sitting in a chair, seemingly oblivious to everyone else.

"Yixian~ You're awake~"

Chongqing's voice carried a girlish charm and softness, as well as a delicate and charming quality. She seemed completely unaware of the awkward atmosphere in the air, and reached into the bamboo basket as if no one else was there. She picked up a piece of jade-white osmanthus cake and brought it to Yixian's face.

"Yixian~ come and have a taste~ This is osmanthus cake I just made today, it's so delicious."

As Chongqing spoke, a pure and innocent smile spread across her face, and the osmanthus cake in her hand dangled near Yixian's mouth.

"..." Yi Xian's gaze finally shifted from Xiao Bai. She glanced silently at Chongqing, who was beaming with a bright smile, and then at the pastry that was only a hair's breadth away from her lips. Finally, she sighed slightly, reached out and took the pastry, and straightened her body by supporting herself on the old chair with one hand. "I really didn't expect that I would become so lively here after just lying down to rest for a while."

Yixian placed the pastries on the tea tray in front of her, then looked at Xiaobai and the others.

"Admiral, it's been a while." Yi Xian bowed his head to Xiao Bai.

With Chongqing breaking the ice and Yixian taking the initiative to speak, the awkward atmosphere around everyone immediately became familiar and harmonious.
