A white and tender hand just grabbed through the door panel, then reached in to open the bolt. The little commander with a kind face pushed the door open and pointed a knife at Akagi.
"Hehehe... Sister, don't be afraid, it will be quick."
Akagi still wanted to resist, but was pinned to the ground by the faster Commander Su. Then Rafi looked on in shock as Commander Su suppressed Akagi and reached behind his waist to grope for a while.
As Akagi's face gradually turned red, there was a "bang" and the Nine-Tailed Fox with two bald tails suddenly appeared.
The little conductor holding the knife began to trim Akagi's tail with satisfaction. On the other hand, Akagi, a professional yandere, could still resist for a few times at the beginning, but after the hair on the third tail tip was cut off by half, he began to give up.
Rafi was so frightened by the scene that he forgot to turn off the fire. Only one thought kept circling in his mind:
"..What on earth did I miss?"
Chapter 347 A Transitional Chapter
"Ok, I know."
"Hehehe...it's your fault for treating her like that before."
"Okay... you're not really mad, are you?"
"Well, it's okay. It will grow out soon."
"If it doesn't work, just let Susu use that to help you recover."
"Well, don't make too much of a fuss."
"Okay, good night, Akagi."
Tiancheng hung up the phone with a smile on his face, and then heaved a sigh of relief, which attracted Helena, who was sitting across from him, to look over curiously. She asked softly, "Is this from Akagi?"
"Yes, she complained to me that Susu bullied her." Tiancheng answered half-jokingly, "She's such a grown-up, really."
When Helena heard that it was about the little commander, she hurriedly sat up cross-legged on the bed and continued to ask, "Did Susu bully her? No way... No matter how you look at it, it must be Akagi who is restless - ah... I don't mean to say anything bad about her.
"It's okay." Tiancheng smiled and shook his head. "Akagi has become a little extreme because of what happened in the past. She does act without consideration. I have to apologize to you on her behalf. She caused a big scene in the harbor yesterday."
"Speaking of this, I'm actually quite curious. No one has told me the details of what happened. What did Akagi do?"
Tiancheng glanced at the girl called "Hai Ma" by the young commander. For the sake of peace on the subsequent journey, he chose not to tell the details of what happened, but just simply said it over.
It didn't matter that Helena didn't get an answer. Since no one told her about this secretary ship, she thought it was not a big deal. It would be the same if she asked when she got back, so she picked up her phone and continued to browse.
Even on the simple berth, Tiancheng's side-sitting posture was very dignified and perfect. He did not look like he was on a journey, but rather had the calmness and elegance of a person at a banquet.
She was straightening the wrinkles on her clothes while thinking silently.
The problem he was thinking about was not the upcoming Hongmen Banquet, nor his sister Akagi's tail baldness crisis, but the little commander whose personality was basically the same as that of an ordinary person.
Thinking back to the past, Su Xin was still a little expressionless. She attributed all her emotions to friendship and family affection, quantified all the help from others, and thought about finding an opportunity to give back.
He will not express his ideas easily, always keeps things to himself and handles all problems by himself, trying to take on responsibilities that are too heavy for his age.
Su Xin is such a worry-free person. You don't have to pay too much attention to anything as she can do everything well. But she is also so well-behaved that it makes people feel distressed about her.
Now Su Xin is more cheerful and loves to laugh more. At the same time, she has become more lively and naughty. She always does things that make people laugh and cry, or even things that they have never thought of.
This would certainly cause some trouble to the elders in the port area, but the price was worth it, after all, they got a more caring little commander in return.
Tiancheng, who has witnessed the changes in Su Xin along the way, is very pleased with this. She will not change her feelings for this underage girl just because of Su Xiaozhi's personality changes.
In fact, Tiancheng likes Su Xin no matter what kind of Su Xin she is, but she just prefers to see the little commander happy.
However, having said that, it is not without disadvantages for Commander Su to understand emotions. At least he will surely be able to attract many men in the future.
"Alas... Rafi and I are stuck in the same position, and Akagi is involved again..."
"Well... although it's best to slowly develop feelings, but if someone suddenly shows up... it wouldn't be a good feeling to lose everything..."
"After you go back this time, you should show up in front of Su Su more often, right?"
Tiancheng thought of this and chuckled softly. When he heard the noisy sound of Maryland next door, he shook his head, drove these romantic thoughts out of his mind, and thought about the next countermeasures.
In fact, she was not too worried about the safety of the ship girls on this trip.
They are ship girls with unparalleled firepower and mobility. As a human being, Liu Jun cannot force them to stay.
The worst-case scenario would be a confrontation between the two port ship girls, but even so, they would still be able to escape safely from each other, because it is unlikely that a ship girl would attack another ship girl.
Although in the past history there were irreconcilable conflicts between the camps, at this point, their open common enemy is the Siren.
Moreover, the ship girls don't actually have too many twists and turns in their minds. Unlike humans, they don't use any means to achieve their goals. They don't have too many desires, so they will choose to compromise more often to ensure friendly relations between the ship girls.
But even if the method of using force to make them suffer didn't work, Liu Jun still confidently invited them to come over, which meant that the other party should have made some preparations in other aspects.
Tiancheng could understand inviting Helena, after all, the other party had had dirty thoughts about Helena before. However, allowing the little commander not to go and specifically asking to bring Ming Miao along was something that Tiancheng should think deeply about.
The young commander doesn't have to go, which means that Liu Jun's target is not Su Xin, but the invited ship girls; he specifically mentioned that he wanted to do business with Ming Miao, probably because he has his eyes on the equipment that Ming Miao is selling recently.
Helena said that Liu Jun's company is larger than his own, and there are more ship girls. It seems that the demand for equipment will be greater, so the reason of "doing business" is probably not a cover.
As for Nelson...maybe he is just the bargaining chip for his "business".
In fact, Amagi did not know Nelson. She only met the young commander some time after Nelson left, so she had never seen the ship girl who defeated Hood.
I heard from the little conductor that Nelson is a tsundere, and Helena also said that she had reminded Nelson at the time to remember to pay attention to Liu Jun. It seems that Nelson must have discovered something.
The reason of "being sick" is obviously untenable. As for why Nelson did not resist but instead chose to obey Liu Jun's orders obediently... Tiancheng couldn't guess the reason for the time being.
However, judging from the fact that Maryland, this carefree ship girl, has no ill feelings towards Liu Jun, it is obvious that Liu Jun usually hides well, and at least on the surface he is a good commander.
Since the other party has a bad character and is hostile to the children at home, Tiancheng has no need to waste this opportunity. Finding a way to take him down in one fell swoop is the real purpose of this trip.
Judging from the current situation, they will definitely not be able to shake the other side's ship girls by persuading without any evidence. They must come up with something practical. Therefore, the breakthrough point to overthrow Liu Jun may be in the "sick"
Nelson was on.
Tiancheng thought for a moment, but still couldn't think of any perfect solution. However, looking at Helena's unhappy expression, Tiancheng temporarily stopped his plan to take action when everything was ready.
"It seems... we can put the search for a breakthrough aside for now."
"Giving Helena a warning and making her feel more comfortable is the first thing to do."
ps: I can't write strategies because I don't have a high IQ QA Q...
Chapter 348 The Problem
As the train runs day and night, the ship girls are getting closer and closer to the final destination of this journey.
Helena's face had not been looking very good, and as the familiar scenery appeared, it tended to get worse, because she found that the scenery and buildings along the train were all ones she had seen before...
When she escaped from that place.
Phoenix also quieted down and no longer guarded Cleveland as usual. He just sat on the bed with his head down, looking a little confused.
After holding her breath and making the decision to go together, Phoenix suddenly felt a little overwhelmed. She didn't quite understand why she should take Helena back with her.
The other ship girls were also silent, occasionally drinking some oil they carried with them, or secretly checking the amount of ammunition they carried, which made Maryland stunned.
"What happened to you guys? Aren't you just going to our port area to have a meal... Did you lose your wallet?"
Tian Cheng smiled to ease the atmosphere, and then once again asked the question he had asked several times in the past few days: "What kind of person is Commander Liu?"
"Ah...you've asked this question many times...it's just a meal, there's no need to be so scared." Maryland patted Phoenix's shoulder carelessly, but the other party dodged.
"Hmm? Not really... Although my commander is not a very good person, he doesn't seem to have done anything bad... He's been pretty good to us."
Tiancheng knew that before the evidence appeared, no matter how much explanation he gave, it would not affect the ship girl who was already inclined towards Liu Jun, so he just mentioned it casually as a joke:
"No, it was our first time to come into contact with humans without a commander, so we were a little nervous. Plus, time was tight, so we didn't prepare any gifts... It was a bit rude."
"Oh, it's okay, the commander doesn't care about that." Maryland shook her head to indicate that Tiancheng was overthinking. "He might care more about merit and other things. Normally, he wouldn't be very happy if we gave him gifts."
This was the first time Tian Cheng heard other information about Liu Jun from Maryland. This made her heart move, and she asked casually, "So... Commander Liu might want us to send him some equipment?"
"Hmm?" Maryland was stunned. "It seems that it is not impossible... The commander will really like this kind of gift. After all, most of the sisters in the port area are still wearing purple clothes."
"If you give him gold equipment, he will definitely - ah, I'm not suggesting that you give him equipment, no no, don't misunderstand, don't misunderstand."
Tiancheng smiled and waved his hand, handing over a glass of water. "Don't be so nervous, we're just chatting. We are still very curious about your commander. I heard that he has a very high status."
"Eh? Ah... It's OK." Maryland scratched his head. "I don't understand these military ranks or anything like that. Anyway, he will be very happy every time he gets a star."
"I see... I remember that promotion to military rank requires a lot of merit as a basis. It seems that your port district is very active in participating in activities."
Maryland was a little unhappy when she heard this. "Although I like fighting very much, it is really boring to fight with the Siren Ship. However, the commander always issues orders to fight all night during the event."
"To be honest, fighting can be really frustrating sometimes, but once we see the commander's happy expression when he gets the Siren nameplates we collected, we no longer feel angry."
"Hmm... It's really hard for him..." Tiancheng took a sip of water, "Is it really okay for him to always stay up late? The human body is very fragile, right?"
"It's okay." Maryland waved her hand nonchalantly. "It's going to cost something, and he has a secretary ship to take care of him, so he won't get sick that easily."
Tiancheng paused for a moment after hearing this, and then asked: "Secretary ship? Hmm... like our Helena, is it a light cruiser?"
Maryland shook her head. "No, no, it's a battleship. She's married."
Helena was stunned when she heard this. She wanted to hear more news, but then she saw Maryland raise his head and drink up the water in the glass. Then he stood up unnaturally and said, "Why am I telling you all this? You should just look at the scenery.
It’s considered a tourist city.”
Tiancheng knew that he couldn't ask any more questions, so he started talking to Maryland about the scenery outside the window that was rapidly receding. This natural turn of events made Maryland, who had gradually become suspicious, feel relieved and they started discussing the exercise.
She had fought against Lafite before, and the battle lasted for a whole day or two, but she never won a single game. And this was just a destroyer, and the real big ships had not appeared yet.
This time, Maryland saw that there were several gunboats and aircraft carriers among the fellow ship girls, and she was secretly happy for a long time, thinking about fighting with all of them.
Tiancheng looked at Phoenix who had been depressed for a long time and Helena who was unhappy, and after thinking for a moment, he agreed to Maryland's proposal, which made Maryland very excited for the rest of the journey.
As we got closer to the terminal, there were more and more buildings and people around us. The green vegetation became less and was replaced by houses of various shapes and sizes.
After the train arrived at the station, people got off one after another, walked out of the slightly crowded exit, and walked to the square outside the station.
This city is indeed a popular tourist destination. Most people coming and going carry a free map of tourist attractions, and it is obvious that they are here for sightseeing.
However, the ship girls had no intention of having fun, they just followed Maryland onto the bus.
Helena looked at this familiar yet strange city, and listened to the residents' conversations with a slight accent. She felt even more uneasy. When the bus started and stopped, the passengers swayed slightly as if
A leaf of duckweed.
The gradual emergence of these memories made Helena feel very bad, and her mind began to gradually become distracted. When the bus stopped suddenly, she almost lost her balance and fell.
Fortunately, a hand helped her at the critical moment, and before she could say thank you, she was pulled to the corner in front of the rear door to separate her from other passengers.
"..Are you okay?"
Helena suddenly came back to her senses, looked at Cleveland with concern in his eyes, and then shook her head, "...It's okay."
"...Lean against the inside, be careful not to fall."
Helena looked at Cleveland who had his hands on both sides of her. She felt that the plot was cliché, but she accepted Cleveland's kindness a little stiffly, "...Thank you."
Cleveland turned his head away sheepishly, "...Uh."
The group took the bus to the terminal, then got off the bus. After walking a short distance, they finally saw the iron gate, which was much larger than Su Xin's home port, and several figures standing at the gate.
"Welcome everyone." A tall man stood at the door with his arms bent. "I'm Liu Jun, you can just call me Commander Liu. This is my secretary and wife."
A silver-haired woman in a proper dress took Liu Jun's arm, smiled at everyone, and introduced herself gently:
"Thank you for coming all the way to attend the commander's birthday party. I'm Rodney from the Royal Family. If you need anything in the next few days, please don't hesitate to tell me directly."
ps: I know that you don’t like to read Fenti, so the plot won’t be too long. The four updates today or tomorrow should be enough. It won’t be too long. Good night~
Chapter 349 Nelson
When Helena saw Liu Jun again, she was much calmer than she thought. She didn't say anything or do anything. She even pulled the gritting-teeth Phoenix back.
Liu Jun seemed to sincerely welcome their arrival. After a few pleasantries, he asked Rodney to take them in for a walk.
"If you don't mind, I have enough rooms for you to live in. The furniture and supplies are also complete. Don't be too polite. Just tell Rodney if you need anything."
The expressions of the ship girls were not very good, but it was obviously inappropriate to show a bad expression when the incident was still unclear, so Amagi stepped forward to thank Liu Jun, led the ship girls and followed Rodney into the port area.
Rodney was a Royal Navy battleship, the second ship of the Nelson class, and one of the "BIG SEVEN" because of her huge caliber guns.
But Rodney's personality is very different from her fierce firepower. He is gentle, careful, considerate and very royal and elegant.
"Hello." Rodney looked very responsible as a secretary ship. "Welcome to the commander's birthday party again. Thank you for your hard work along the way."
Tiancheng smiled and replied, "It's not hard. It's us who came here in a hurry and didn't prepare any gifts. Please forgive us."
