Royal Ark turned to look at Rafi upon hearing this, and Rafi nodded, "...It's me."
"We were originally planning to leave right after we picked her up, but my sister is very afraid of the dark. We can't leave now, and it's too dangerous to turn on the lights, so we have to stay here for the night."
Royal Ark looked at the little angel again. Su Xin: "Huh? Yes, I am afraid of the dark..."
"We just went out to find something to eat, and you came and frightened my sister, so we were so unfriendly. It was really rude, and I hope you can forgive us."
Ark Royal looked at the other ship girls/Sirens again, and they all nodded in affirmation.
"So that's how it is... I didn't understand the situation clearly and acted recklessly..." Royal Ark accepted this explanation very easily, mainly because the little angel opposite her kept staring at her.
Su Xin: "Did she really believe it? It's not a stopgap measure... Although she is a destroyer control in the game, she looks like a mature and reliable ship girl, and she is very rational in other aspects...
Royal Ark: "She is looking at me! She is still looking at me! Her expression is so serious! The little angel is so cute! This kind of focused gaze and this fresh and sweet fragrance, I can't bear it!"
Tiancheng looked at Royal Ark's expression without blinking, and felt more confident. "Although it was a misunderstanding, we also felt your sense of justice, Royal Ark."
"So I would like to ask, would you like to join us?"
"Ah this..."
The Royal Ark was a little hesitant, mainly because although there was a risk of being caught outside, there were quite a lot of destroyers. Joining a port area was like giving up the entire rainforest for a piece of forest, wasn't it?
"Speaking of which, my sister is really popular with the destroyer... You know, when there are too many children, accidents are more likely to happen."
Royal Ark's eyes suddenly became sharp, "You said... being favored by destroyers - no, it's easy to have accidents?"
"Hmm? Right." Tian Cheng pretended to be puzzled. "I don't know why, but she is very popular with children, so they always play together. What if she gets bumped into or meets a bad person? What should I do..."
Upon hearing this, Lafite moved closer to Su Xin and shared some of his weight with her. As a result, his hand, which was supporting himself on the ground, accidentally pressed down on Su Xin's tail that was sticking out from her shorts.
"Um..." Su Xin shrank back a little and blushed, "Lafei...you pressed my tail..."
Rafi pinched it lightly, then let it go without changing his expression. It felt great. "I'm sorry..."
When the Royal Ark saw the interaction between the two "expelled sisters", one of them couldn't help but lowered his head, covered his nose and kept silent.
Su Xin thought she was about to sneeze and handed her a handkerchief. Royal Ark took it and covered his nose with it. After smelling the peach scent, the nosebleed that had just stopped started flowing again.
"Please...please..." Royal Ark covered his nose and said in a muffled voice, "Please let me join Guigang! Please!!"
"Of course, we welcome you to join us, Royal Ark." Tiancheng smiled and squinted his eyes, "Since the ending is a happy one, could you please call back and tell the officers of the Military Police to tell them not to come?
? "
"Huh? Why?"
"We may have to wait until tomorrow morning to set off. We can't let them wait all night, right? That would be such a waste of police resources... What if someone takes this opportunity to attack the destroyer... What should we do then?"
"You're right. The Expelled Sisters are the most precious treasures in the world. They must not be harmed! No, I'll call her right now."
Royal Ark called the captain of the gendarmerie: "Hello, this is Royal Ark."
[Huh? Why are you calling? Have you...been hanging out and haven't come home yet?]
"Ah... No, at first I thought my sister was kidnapped. It was just a misunderstanding. There is no danger, no danger."
【…What's the meaning.】
"I'm sorry to bother you. You don't have to come. I'm safe. We'll be good sisters after the misunderstanding is resolved."
[…., what misunderstanding?]
"This... the sisters who chased my sister caught me, and I thought I would be beaten..."
[You attacked the destroyer again, didn't you?!... No, weren't you already so far out of the danger line?]
"Ah, that..." Royal Ark thought hard. Tiancheng pointed to the sea, and Royal Ark answered, "I accidentally lost it when I went out to sea today. I'm sorry... I'm in the next city to carry out a commission..."
The Tiancheng fox laughed, and the Royal Ark was scolded stupidly. After apologizing for a long time, the other side withdrew the team and went back. Royal Ark then hung up the phone and wanted to get closer to Su Xin, but was stopped by Helena and gave him a good lecture.
The Purifier got what she wanted and asked Su Xin to grill a fish for her. After taking a bite, her mouth felt bitter and salty. However, Su Xin looked at her with sparkling eyes, and she couldn't spit it out, so she had to chew it and swallow it.
"Uh... a little burnt, and a little salty." Seeing Su Xin's slightly disappointed expression, the Purifier hurried to make amends, "But it's still very delicious, really."
Su Xin felt relieved and planned to roast one for the Royal Ark that she had just abducted. When the other party found out, tears welled up in his eyes amid Helena's scolding. The Purifier took advantage of Su Xin's turning around to drink water frantically.
"Eh... it tastes terrible..."
ps: Susu is going home~
Chapter 195 Master!
No one slept the whole night because everyone could feel the vague reluctance before parting.
Su Xin's original plan was to leave in two or three days, so that she could spend more time playing with the Purifier. After all, regardless of their factions, they were good friends.
Besides, he also helped his sister heal her eyes, and he basically responded to every request these days, without any airs of a small enemy leader who was against humans.
However, the Royal Ark's "night rescue operation" did disrupt Su Xin's original plan. Who knows if someone would jump out of the water while she was on vacation at night? Anyone would be scared.
The key point is that they have met the Royal Ark before. If we really let them go back, we don’t know what hidden dangers will be caused.
Besides, he is an expulsion addict, not a real fool. Su Xin thinks that within a few days, the loopholes in the previous rhetoric will be discovered by the Royal Ark, and then problems will arise.
Therefore, the best way is to invite (kidnap) her back home. After all, we are all family members at home, and we can discuss countermeasures together then.
However, after the Royal Ark joined the team, they could no longer take this vacation, otherwise the reason of "rescuing Rafi" would be exposed, and they could not return to the Purifier's base, so they had to go home early.
The Purifier also knew this and did not try to keep her. He just stayed with Su Xin and played with her all night long.
After tasting the unpalatable grilled fish, building a crooked sand castle, and playing cards a few times out of spite, Su Xin was given several notes. In the end, when Su Xin was extremely sleepy, she still insisted on telling stories to the Purifier.
No one knew how long the Purifier had lived or how many worlds he had experienced. He must have read more books and stories than Su Xin, but she still listened with gusto and asked a few non-technical questions from time to time to participate in the interaction.
Su Xin was almost whispering as she spoke the last part. The Purifier looked at the dimly lit sky, put away her cheerful expression, and carried Su Xin, who had fallen asleep leaning on her, into Helena's arms.
"It's time for you to go."
"Yeah." Helena touched Su Xin's head, "It's time for us to leave. Thank you for taking care of me these days."
"Don't get me wrong, I'm just doing this for Su Su's sake. I'm not familiar with you guys..."
Helena did not refute much. She looked at Lafite and Amagi not far away, and after thinking about it, she decided not to start a fight, so she waved for Shokaku to come over, entrusted Su Xin to him, and turned back.
"Then we'll go first." Helena looked at the somewhat awkward Purifier, smiled, walked up to him and gave him a gentle hug as he froze, "You're welcome to come to the port area when you have time."
The Purifier stared blankly at the group of people leaving in the warm light that looked like stardust on the water. He thought of Su Xin trying to suppress her sleepiness to play with him, and the friendly attitude of the ship girls, and muttered to himself:
"...What is this? They surrendered to the enemy...or did I surrender to the enemy?"
"Isn't that ship girl going back with us?" Royal Ark looked at the small island behind him and asked in confusion.
Tiancheng explained with a smile: "She has to go back to the commissioning point first. Don't worry, she is very strong and there will be no problem with her safety."
"I see." Royal Ark nodded, "Then why don't we go back to the commission point? My commission order has not been delivered yet.
"Well... it's closer for us to go back directly." Xianghe, who was carrying the sleeping Su Xin on his back, continued, "If you ask for a commission... we will ask our friend (York City) to help you pay the fine."
Royal Ark nodded again, looked at the sleeping Commander Su, and said, "Shokaku, you must be tired carrying the little angel on your back, right? How about I do it myself? I'm very strong!"
Helena objected immediately. She had a very bad impression of this expulsion-control thug who coveted her child. It was mainly because of the "kidnapping" incident last night that made her mind up, and Royal Ark didn't look like a pure person at all.
It took the group two days to return to the city they had arrived at by car and then they got on the same train again. After all, if they had to travel purely by sea, not only would it take a long time, but they would definitely be mentally exhausted.
The train was still very empty. It was the beginning of May, and although it had been the start of the holiday season, it was almost over. In addition, no one would come to the cities close to the front line, so there was still ample space.
But they didn't get beds in the same compartment, so they were separated into two groups.
Su Xin and Xianghe were in the same room to avoid any disputes; Lafei and Tiancheng were in the same room. When there was no core conflict, the two of them got along very well like sisters; Helena and Royal Ark were in the same room. Helena didn't personally keep an eye on this person.
I can't feel at ease at all.
Although Royal Ark had behaved badly in front of Helena before, had been to police station, and even lived there as his home, Helena found after watching Royal Ark for a few days that he was actually quite beyond her expectations.
The next day, a family came to the compartment. The parents brought a very cute little girl. Helena was afraid that the Royal Ark would take action against them, but it turned out that she was not interested in them at all.
Helena was very curious and couldn't help asking her, "Don't you think... children are cute?"
"Hmm? Very cute." Royal Ark said, smiling and nodding at the child's parents. "Why are you asking me this all of a sudden?"
"Just...just...you're not...that thing?" Helena hesitated, not knowing what to say. She was afraid that if she said it, the other person's parents would directly call the staff to arrest her.
Royal Ark was very calm, "I like cute destroyers. I like them even if they are not small or childish."
"Hmm? Like?" Helena's eyes suddenly became sharp. "It's wrong for you to do this. They are still so young. How can you say that you like them?"
"Ah...ah?" Royal Ark was dumbfounded. "I...I just like destroyers purely...I don't have any weird thoughts. Destroyers are treasures that need to be cared for and cherished!"
"Nonsense! You even made Susu bleed from your nose last time!"
"That was an accident! I was just overwhelmed by cuteness. Do you understand what cuteness is?!"
"You said you can tell who is who by smelling them. You are obviously a pervert, right?!"
"That... that's my special talent!"
The couple who witnessed the whole process looked solemn with their child. They never took their eyes off the Royal Ark for several hours, fearing that their child would be harmed.
Royal Ark was so wronged. It was mainly because of her own incompetence. No matter how she explained, as long as Helena played the picture of Su Xin's sleeping face on her phone, her true colors were immediately exposed, and all the previous explanations were in vain.
Even after returning to the port, Helena's vigilance towards the Royal Ark had not changed. She even whispered to the sisters in her own camp, asking them to pay attention to the personal safety of the commander and the destroyer at home.
As for the Royal Ark, I thought the port area built by the "wandering ship girl" mentioned by Amagi would be very dilapidated, but when I got there, I found that the port area was not small, and there was even a Ferris wheel!
"Ah...this...this..."
"Um... I'm sorry, Miss Royal Ark." Amagi and three other ship girls blocked the door. "I didn't lie to you. This port was indeed built by wandering ship girls in the beginning, but later... our commander entered
Stayed."
"I don't accept it!" The Royal Ark thought that there was no human management and it was all the ship girls. "I want to go back to the rainforest!"
Tiancheng didn't understand what tropical rain forest meant, but he still explained with a smile: "In fact, you can think about it again. Our commander is -
"Commander--"
Su Xin turned around and looked at Xiao Ruyue and Eldridge jumping over and throwing themselves into her arms and rubbing against her.
"Commander... Kisaragi misses you so much..."
"...lift up high...miss you."
Su Xin smiled and said "We are back" while rubbing her head. Royal Ark, who was about to refute, was stunned when he saw this.
"The little angel is the commander?"
"Isn't she a ship girl?"
"Wait a minute... the point is, if I join, then the little angel will be my boss, right?!"
"Can I kiss my boss?"
"If I could... wouldn't I be living in happiness from head to toe?!"
"Eh? Wait... didn't Amagi say that little angels are particularly fond of destroyers?"
"If I learn this skill, my dream will come true, right?!"
"What is the etiquette of becoming a disciple in Donghuang..."
So Su Xin was still hugging her two sisters and patting their heads when she heard a loud call from behind.
"Master! Please accept my disciple's greetings!"
She turned back and saw Royal Ark kneeling down excitedly, banging his head on the ground with a sincere expression.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Everyone is in a mess.
Chapter 196 Suddenly
Su Xin still felt wonderful when she returned to her home.
Although she hadn't been back for more than two months, she didn't feel out of place. The only thing that seemed a little inappropriate was probably the newly built amusement park.
The destroyers in the port area finalized the specific facilities of the amusement park, the profiteer Boss Ming supplied the goods, and the little yellow chickens were responsible for the construction. It is now in use.
Su Xin didn't find a chance to go on the day she came back. Having taken the train for a long time, they all looked a little tired and exhausted mentally, so after meeting and saying hello, everyone went back to rest.
The next morning, Su Xin got up. She felt refreshed after having enough rest. She stretched, washed up, and prepared to go out. But when she opened the door, she saw two people standing on both sides of the door, confronting each other.
Royal Ark was upright and dignified, standing straight and neatly dressed, looking very royal and ceremonial, while Helena on the opposite side seemed a little nervous.
