"...chance? What...chance to play fair?"
Helena paused, and did not choose to speak out. After a few breaths, she helped to cover up with two sentences: "This is an opportunity to learn how the secretary ship handles affairs. They can learn more, and you can also take the opportunity to become more familiar with everyone.
some.
"Well...I haven't thought about that..."
After listening to this, Su Xin reflected on herself very seriously and found that she really didn't have a deep understanding of the ship girls in the port area. She basically got along with them based on the game settings that were inherent in her memory.
Although it has worked every time so far, if you think about it carefully you will find that this habit and even mentality are incorrect.
In the game, the personality traits of each ship girl are basically determined by voice and text, but the reality is different. Commander Su Xiao understands this, but has never been able to really put it into practice.
Thinking of this, Su Xin suddenly recalled the advice Yixian gave her when she went to ask him a question some time ago.
[I hope you can clearly realize that...each of us is a complex and independent individual...]
"Independent individuals..." Commander Su murmured, then nodded, "I understand. I will try my best. So what should we do next? Will I tell everyone about it when we eat later?"
Helena opened her mouth, and suddenly stopped talking as if she had thought of something. After a few breaths, she spoke again: "How about tomorrow? I'll go back and think about how to arrange this matter."
Su Xin had no objection to this and nodded in response, "Don't worry too much about me, Sister Helena, you have your own life too, don't worry.
Helena was stunned for a moment, then smiled with relief and said, "Okay."
"Rafi? Are you there?"
The white little body dragged a soft, long pillow and walked barefoot onto the carpet, then swayed left and right to open the door.
"...exist."
As soon as Helena saw Rafi's expression, she knew that she had woken him up, but she couldn't care less now. She immediately went forward, carried Rafi into the room, and closed the door with her foot.
"Rafi, don't be confused." Helena freed one hand and rubbed Rafi's cheek, "I have something very important to tell you."
"...Hmm?...Um...ha-sister said..."
"I'm resigning, and the secretary ship is vacant."
"...?"
"Susu is looking for a new secretary ship!"
"...!"
Lafite, who was still half asleep, woke up with a start. He threw aside the "YES" pillow that Mingmiao had tricked him into buying a long time ago. "...Really?"
Helena blushed silently when she saw the word, but the most important thing at the moment was business. "Really, it will be announced tomorrow. I plan to propose a rotation system because you..."
Helena looked up and down at Lafite, whose hair was in a mess, and finally concluded, "There is really no obvious advantage..."
Rafi did not refute. Apparently, being a "secretary ship" is much more important than proving oneself.
Helena didn't waste any time. She wanted to announce it tomorrow and suggested on the spot that the decision should be made based on the order of registration. This way, Lafite, who had been given special treatment, would definitely be one step ahead of others, and there might be no need to arrange the shifts later.
"So you must express your stance quickly tomorrow, understand?"
"Rafi knows."
"Okay, go to sleep."
The next day, Helena went to the restaurant worriedly, still thinking about how to make the proposal more naturally. But when she opened the door, she saw a large group of people standing around Commander Su Xiao.
Helena, who was thinking about giving a secret lesson, was shocked. She didn't understand how the news was leaked, but she heard someone mutter, "Qingye's report is sometimes quite useful..."
..... 5
"*(a plant)"
Chapter 416: XX or XX, it is obviously ()
"Quiet, everyone, be quiet for a moment—"
When the ship girls who were quite interested in the new positions heard the voice of the former secretary ship, they all calmed down and turned their attention to Helena.
Su Xin, who was surrounded inside, finally found an opportunity. She squeezed out from among the ship girls of all sizes, and ran behind Helena with messy hair. Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief.
Helena stood in front of the commander, looking at the group of ship girls who were watching the fun and making trouble, and sighed helplessly, "How come everyone knows about this?"
"I suddenly received a text message this morning." Atago took out her phone and waved it towards Helena, smiling happily, "Aoba said that the commander plans to find a new candidate for the secretary ship in order to give you a vacation."
Guanghui nodded and continued, "We were skeptical at first, so we asked Susu with a try-it attitude, and then we found out that these were all true... We were quite surprised."
Helena's face darkened. She was very angry with this reporter who had disrupted her "special treatment plan". Unfortunately, she couldn't even find his shadow at the scene. She guessed he had gone to hide somewhere.
According to the current situation, the proposal to [rotate the secretary ships in order] is obviously not feasible. The White Rabbit mentioned last night has not yet arrived.
She had originally planned to use her remaining voice before leaving office to give her beloved sister Rafi, who was in the same camp, a chance to get close to Susu, but unfortunately she had to find another way now.
Helena glanced at Amagi who was standing aside and seemed to be watching from the sidelines, and Akagi who had a cold expression and a "whoever is elected will be killed" aura. It was really difficult to deal with.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were focused on her, Helena couldn't remain silent for too long. She could only say a few random words and think of ways to change the situation while waiting for Lafite.
"Are you all... interested in the position of secretary ship? Actually, there are still many things to do."
"Actually... I've been idle at home for a long time." Guanghui supported Miss Hu De and said softly, "I drank all the tea that Miss Chicheng gave me. I really have nothing to do at home.
Done.
Akagi, who was standing next to Tiancheng, sneered when he heard this, "If you want, I can make more for you myself. There are still a lot of seasonings."
"Ah... then Kouki would like to thank Miss Akagi first."
"You're welcome."
The destroyers standing together in a small group were trembling. Ruyue still didn't understand the situation, so she turned around and asked Javelin: "Sister Akagi... are you good at making tea? Ruyue also wants to try it..."
“No, no, no…” Javelin, who had drunk it after being recommended by Guanghui and therefore knew the inside story, obviously disagreed, “That… um… it’s made with a special process, children can’t drink it, it’s easy to… easy to get a stomachache!”
"Ah... that's a pity..."
Little Zeppelin looked at the front armor of the Tejas with a cold face, thinking it was no big deal. But when he lowered his head, he found that he was forced to stop at the starting point, which was somewhat unbalanced:
"...The edge of this damn world, I was originally... Tsk."
I only heard a few syllables and scratched my head, not quite understanding, "Eh? Little Zeppelin, what are you talking about?"
Z23, wearing a pair of plain glasses, closed the textbook "Torpedo Angle" and answered casually: "She is probably lamenting the injustice of the world."
"Nimi-chan?!" Javelin was frightened and exclaimed softly, then turned to laugh at Little Zeppelin: "Ah...Nimi-chan, she just... uh... said it casually, don't mind it..."
Little Zeppelin didn't care at all. She was much more mature than these little destroyers. If she hadn't become smaller, why would she hang out with these kids? What a waste of her time...
"Ah, little Zeppelin, Ru... Ruyue got dessert from Sister Yixian this morning, right? Do you want some?"
"...eat."
Helena didn't pay attention to the children's laughter for the time being. After all, she thought that the destroyers were still relatively weak in competitiveness. After all, their mental age was there, so it was unlikely that the destroyers would take the lead right from the start.
Of course, Lafite's special treatment is an exception, but she gave the opportunity to be ruined by others...
What she needs to pay attention to right now are the large ships of the Sakura Empire and the royal family. These people are not easy to fool. As for the others... it is better to eliminate them if possible.
So Helena skipped Guanghui, who was smiling gently, and turned to ask Ming Miao, who was still mumbling in the same place: "Boss Ming, aren't you going to run an equipment store? Business is good recently, so you probably don't have much time.
yes?"
"Eh~ You don't understand me now, meow~" Mingmiao shook his sleeves and smiled to show his sincerity, "Since you are helping the commander, then of course I have no choice but to do it, meow! The commander took such good care of me before, how could I ignore it?
See you, meow?!"
Shiranui, who was floating in the air on the ship suit, said coldly, "Heh, you greedy cat, you just want to sell this quota at a high price, right?"
"Nonsense meow! How could I possibly do such a thing meow!"
Helena didn't care whether it was true or not. She immediately seized this excuse and slapped the profiteer to death: "Forget it. This is a serious job. How can you mess around? Next one."
"Eh? Me? I just think the commander's concept of money is not right, so I want to help her correct it. There is no other intention."
Helena looked at Ning Hai, who had a kind face, and refuted very sincerely: "I think that considering the wealth of Su Su, which is so large that you can't even read the specific number... I don't think we need to worry about this problem. Next."
Spe pursed his lips and didn't dare to raise his hand; Portland was trying to feed Indy Sauce; Phoenix kept staring at the innocent Cleveland, and as for Long Island...
"Don't look at me, I just came out to eat breakfast." Changdao poked a steamed bun and stuffed it into his mouth, "If you are swollen, come to the office and do some politics..."
Seeing that no one was speaking, Helena was about to cut the Gordian knot and come to a conclusion to discuss it later, but was interrupted by Atago:
"I am very interested in this, and I think I can handle the job and take care of the commander at the same time. I just don't know if the former secretary will give me this opportunity?"
Helena would never be fooled by such a rhetoric that was intended to accuse her, and she responded without hesitation: "Of course it is Susu who will choose, I am just doing some preparatory work."
"Really..." Atago pouted, then smiled at Su Xin, "Su Su? Can't you give me a chance? We have never understood each other, and we rarely talk to each other...I will be sad too, right?"
Akagi narrowed his eyes, threw out a can of insecticide, and wanted to kill Ai Da Gou on the spot, but after staring at him for a long time, Shokaku quickly pulled out a baseball bat and hit a home run with the insecticide. The can smashed the glass and flew out.
Akagi glared at him, while Shokaku smiled sweetly and kept humming, looking like a child who had taken advantage of him, which made Amagi shake his head helplessly.
Yixian on the opposite side saw that Tiancheng had not yet finished his battle, so he naturally would not act rashly. Therefore, he did not speak up to participate in the election. He just stood aside quietly and focused his attention on the young commander.
Now that things have come to this, Su Xin feels that she has no choice but to agree to Atago. However, if Atago is really allowed to be the secretary ship, then Sheffield will have to add the task of "poison testing" to his future work.
But Su Xin couldn't think of any reason to reject Atago for the time being. After all, from what she said, she did tend to neglect communicating with her.
unless……
Just at this moment, a white figure pushed open the door of the restaurant and walked in, covering the area between the two buns on his head.
“..Who is it…it hurts…it destroyed all the sleepiness I had accumulated…”
"Ah." Su Xin suddenly had an idea. "Well... I suddenly remembered that I seem to pay less attention to viciousness than you, Atago..."
"This is my dereliction of duty, so I want her to serve as the secretary ship for a while, and we can also take this opportunity to get to know each other. Um... then I'll trouble you, Vicious."
Evil covered his head with his hands, looking puzzled, "...Huh? Can I sleep in the office?"
The belated White Rabbit held the door of the restaurant, looking even more listless. After drinking some soy milk and swallowing the steamed bun, Changdao looked at the sunny weather outside and sighed pretentiously:
“Alas…it’s the season of White Album again~”
Chapter 417 Transition
"So, Commander, what does Vicious need to do...?"
Su Xin watched as he sat back on the sofa after standing for less than two minutes, with a vicious look on his face that said "I need to rest after my discharge", and shook her head helplessly.
After breakfast just now, she chose viciousness as a temporary solution. Atago was obviously not very satisfied at that time, but Amagi agreed very quickly. Others had no objections, so the matter was settled.
This makes the process of selecting the secretary ship seem a bit of a joke, but compared to the clear goals of the Sakura Empire and the loss of taste of the royal family, choosing the lazy bug Evil does not seem to be something unacceptable.
"At most I'm just lazy and can't help. I can do it myself."
Thinking of this, Su Xin coughed lightly and simply gave Evil a chance to be lazy: "There is nothing to do for the time being. Um... Evil, do whatever you want. Just don't make too much noise."
"Hmm?" The vicious little body tilted and lay down on the soft sofa, "Really? Can I sleep here?"
"can."
"Is it okay to have snacks?"
Su Xin paused, and glanced at Sheffield who was standing quietly beside her, "Well... I can do it."
Evil felt relieved after hearing this, and he casually took out a soft square pillow from the ship's space and put it behind his head, then pulled out a thin blanket, and curled up on the sofa, wrapping himself up like a small ball.
"Then I'll catch up on some sleep. The air conditioner can be turned up two degrees... Haah - call me when you get off work... I... huh..."
Su Xin looked at the destroyer opposite her who fell asleep in just two seconds, breathed a sigh of relief with helplessness and amusement, and began to bury her head in reviewing today's documents and orders.
Tiancheng drank a sip of tea steadily, and then listened to the sound of footsteps. He put down the cup and sighed, "Akagi, calm down."
"Sister...how can you not be anxious at all?" Akagi said, suddenly his eyes turned cold and he stopped walking, "No, I have to go out for a while."
"If you buy those random bug sprays again, I'll confiscate your pocket money, okay?"
Akagi turned around and asked unwillingly, "What about the secretary ship?"
Tiancheng refilled the teapot with boiling water and said, "It has been confirmed that it will be a rotation system. I don't think the cycle will be too long. It doesn't matter if we wait."
"No way!" Akagi disagreed with Amagi's Buddhist mentality, "The commander should belong to our Sakura Empire. Anyone else? Don't even think about it for a day!"
"You should pay more attention to the result. The process is not important." Tiancheng took a small bite of the dessert slowly, swallowed it with tea, and then continued to summarize, "Don't worry, it won't take too long... But you."
Tiancheng continued in the face of Akagi's doubtful eyes: "You should think carefully about what you want, otherwise you will force others while forcing yourself."
"Sister? Did I do something wrong...?"
