Unless no one answers.
"...Sister Xianghe isn't here?" The little commander knocked three times with his fingers, thought for a moment, and tried to turn the handle. Unexpectedly, he opened the door smoothly.
"Sister Shoukaku...?"
The house was quiet and no one responded, but the lights were on, so someone should be there. I just didn't know why it was so quiet.
Su Xin was quite nervous and walked quietly. After a few steps, she saw Xianghe sitting on the floor of the living room, wearing a pair of huge and thick headphones, and she didn't know what he was doing.
"...Is this the right way to open it?" Su Xin heard Xianghe muttering with his head down, "The sound insulation effect is quite good. I can't even hear myself talking...It seems I didn't make a wrong purchase."
As he spoke, Shokaku picked up a small metal disc that looked like a stethoscope, pressed it gently against the wall, leaned his body against it, and moved slowly.
"...I can really hear it."
"Where's the new brand of insecticide... hehe~"
"Is Amagi-sama's tail shedding recently..." Shokaku nodded gently, "As expected, molting is indeed troublesome, but why does it feel like the date is not accurate...? Well, I'd better be more obedient recently."
"...If Susu doesn't pluck a few of your hairs and put them in the sachet, you'll feel uncomfortable all over, right? You're such a masochist senior~"
"...What did you say? Why are you so quiet all of a sudden? Didn't you eat?"
Su Xin, who was standing behind him, glanced at the unpresentable Xianghe, who was "stealing secrets" while writing furiously on an open notebook in a very excited mood.
It would be fine if the ship girl at home eavesdropped through the wall, after all, Su Xin knew something about their past, but it was not appropriate for her to stand there alone.
After thinking about it, the little commander decided to quietly leave and pretend he knew nothing, and wait for the next opportunity to ask Shokaku about makeup.
But before she could lift her legs to take a step, the voice of Akagi next door suddenly broke through the wall and echoed in the sky.
“Love!!!! Dang!!!!”
Su Xin was startled by the scream. Xianghe, who was eavesdropping against the wall, reacted even more. He screamed "Ah--" and sat down on the ground with his hands covering his ears and wrinkling his face, looking a little dazed.
If Akagi, who had his hair cut by the little commander, looked like a well-behaved fox sitting with its tail tucked down, then Shokaku, whose ears were pierced by the devil's sound at this moment, looked more like a wilted bird with messy feathers that had fallen into the water.
After witnessing Xianghe's miserable condition, Commander Su suddenly forgot that he should retreat quickly. He subconsciously took a few steps and wanted to help him. When Xianghe saw people with his ears buzzing, he was obviously even more confused.
"...Susu? Why are you here?"
Su Xin, who was pulling Xianghe up, heard this and suddenly felt like laughing. She guessed that the other party must have tinnitus, so he couldn't hear the tone of his voice, so that the tone of a few simple words was so distorted that it almost went into the ditch.
Fortunately, a ship girl is a ship girl, and her recovery speed is much faster than when Su Xin first came to the port. She doesn't need to recuperate. After just a short while of distraction, she can pull the young commander over and start questioning him.
"Susu, when did you come? I...ah, I don't know what happened with my senior..."
The young commander didn't say anything, but shifted his gaze to glance at the thick notebook spread out on the floor, and Shokaku quickly kicked it away.
"Oh my... I lost my copy of the lyrics. I'll go pick it up later. Do you want something to drink? How about juice? I'll get you a glass."
Without waiting for Su Xin to answer, Xianghe quickly packed up his equipment and left in a hurry. On the way to the refrigerator, he did not forget to bend down to pick up the notebook.
After she took out the juice from the space and put it into the refrigerator, she took it out again and held it in her hand, thinking that she would calm down for a while before going back to try it out, but she suddenly reacted.
"...That's not right. Why should I feel guilty?"
Xianghe frowned and thought carefully. The more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong, and the more he thought about it, the straighter his back became.
"It's not the first time I've done this. Everyone knows about it, so why should I be so nervous? Why not just admit it?"
Xianghe, who had just been caught eavesdropping in a corner, walked back with a clear mind. Seeing Su Xiaozhizhi sitting on the sofa and glancing at the wall, she sat down beside him leisurely.
"Tsk tsk...Susu, how come you suddenly have time to come to my place? You didn't even tell me before you came, and I didn't even prepare any refreshments to entertain you..."
Su Xin explained that there was no response after knocking on the door. Xianghe looked at the other party and guessed that he probably didn't hear anything, so he felt relieved. Unexpectedly, the little guy added another sentence.
"Will the ship girl also change her fur?"
Xianghe's smile froze. She hadn't decided whether she should explain the problem first or ask the other party how much he had heard. Fortunately, the frequent knocks on the door interrupted her inner struggle.
“Bang, bang, bang!”
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
As soon as he heard the knock on the door, Xianghe seemed to have returned to the most familiar area. He calmed down visibly, took out a small mirror and looked at his makeup carefully, then stood up and went to open the door.
"Hey~ Isn't this the senior who likes to be plucked? How come you have time to come and see me, a useless junior?"
Akagi glared at her coldly, "Did you secretly replace my spray?"
"Hmm? What spray?" Shokaku pointed his index finger at his chin and pretended to recall. "Oh~ Are you talking about the box in the corner? I walked into the wrong room when I came back yesterday and saw it by accident."
"It just so happens that I've fought alongside my senior quite a few times recently, and I always felt like I had some of his scent on me, so I wanted to borrow your air freshener, but I didn't expect it to almost choke me, Shokaku..."
"With your intelligence, you definitely wouldn't buy the wrong thing, right? Hmm... I guess the store owner is deliberately deceiving consumers."
"This kind of thing that emits a foul odor is indeed more suitable for seniors, but it would be bad if other sisters smell it, so for the sake of your image, I will give you the one I use~"
"How about it~ Are you very grateful to me, Senior~"
Akagi lowered his head, his words were so cold that they seemed to be ice chips falling off, "...Are you done?"
Xianghe curled his lips, feeling secretly happy, "She's anxious, she's anxious, she's anxious!"
"I just heard Atago say in the room that she wants to discuss with you about trying to get the commander to drink some wine tonight so that we can develop a relationship..."
Akagi instantly stretched out his hand, opened his five fingers and clasped Shokaku's still smiling face, then raised his head with a horrified expression.
"I didn't expect... you got there first..."
"She's in there, right? She's in there, right? Right...right right right right!?"
The slender five fingers suddenly gained strength, pinching the fleshless face of Shokaku so hard that he yelped.
Akagi's scarlet eyes seemed to be glowing, "Hehe...hehehe...you've stretched your legs too long, but you'll have to pay the price..."
Shokaku, who was exhausted, grabbed Akagi's wrist with both hands and pulled hard, but found that the more she pulled, the more painful it became. In desperation, she started screaming with tears in her eyes.
"Commander, come and save Shokaku, Senior is hitting me - ah it hurts!"
ps: I wrote another chapter on the plane. From today on, I will update twice a day. I will make up for the chapters I owe. Love you guys~
Chapter 462 Shut Up
"Actually, I came to see Sister Xianghe this time because I have something serious to do..."
The other three people in the room nodded, with a subtle expression of "I'm listening, you continue."
Su Xin glanced at Shokaku, whose face was red, and then looked at Atago, whose forehead was swollen. She chose her words and advised Akagi, who was rubbing her belly:
"Um...Akagi-sister?"
"Hmm? Commander~" Akagi changed his gloomy expression and smiled, "Are you worried about me? Akagi, it's okay, it's just a minor injury-"
Shokaku, who was taking out the powder to cover the red marks, said coldly, "Looks like you'll have to wear high heels at home next time."
Akagi didn't even look at her, but just looked at Su Xin who opened her mouth seriously and intently, as if expecting her reply.
Commander Su didn't know how to deal with the situation. It was the first time for her to be alone in the center of the storm, surrounded by three people on the sofa for a conversation.
There was a big red spot on Atago's forehead, and the swelling was extremely large. Seeing that Akagi ignored her, she immediately touched the bump and started to feel aggrieved.
"Commander~ Akagi ran into my room for no apparent reason and punched me in the head... It still hurts~"
Atago leaned forward and put her forehead forward, the ends of her eyes turned up and red, and it was unclear whether she was pretending or really in pain, "Would you like me to rub it for you?"
Su Xin was just thinking about saying something to ease the atmosphere, but when she heard Atago complaining, she naturally turned her attention over. Seeing such a big bag, she really wanted to touch it.
Her original intention was not to comfort her. After all, the young commander knew very well that the ship girl would not be so fragile. She reached out her hand simply to poke the bag.
Unfortunately, his hand was only raised a few centimeters before Akagi pressed it back onto his leg, "Commander..."
She narrowed her eyes and said, "Don't always be lured by irrelevant people... Akagi will be very distressed, okay? Besides... she is not a good person either~ hehe..."
Atago was not happy that their good interaction was interrupted by their rival, "Who are you calling a bad guy? It's you who came and beat me up without explanation?"
Shokaku also nodded, "Senior always has his own ideas, but he never shares them with us. I don't know what we did wrong to be treated like this by our sister..."
"Heh... I heard it." Akagi slowly withdrew his hand and sat up straight. "You want to coax the commander to drink, right?"
"It's a drink with a very low alcohol content. It doesn't taste like alcohol at all, but it's definitely enough to deal with the Commander... Is that what you said?"
Akagi opened his eyes wide and glared at Atago, "You said... if you gave it directly to the commander, he would definitely not accept it. Fortunately, I discussed it with Shokaku and asked her to give it to you... right?"
Atago was shocked. "How did you hear that? Uh... I mean... it was just ordinary juice!"
"Juice?" Su Xin, who had been eavesdropping for a long time, suddenly noticed something. She looked at the can of drink that Xianghe had just brought over on the table, reached out to take it, and planned to look at the ingredient list.
Xianghe was immediately startled and hurriedly grabbed it in his hand. Only then did he realize that the other three were looking at him with different meanings.
Atago: You should think of a solution quickly!!
Akagi: Haha...you can only think of these despicable tricks.
Su Xin:???
Shokaku was under pressure from the gaze and began to sweat silently on his forehead. While he was complaining about why Atago was always a big mouth at home, he was frantically thinking of other topics in an attempt to divert attention.
"Uh... that... ah." Shokaku's eyes lit up. "Of course this is just juice, but you're not much better, are you? Do you have any special hobbies, senior?"
Akagi glanced at her junior sideways, not taking it seriously at all. She thought that apart from being a little possessive, she was excellent in other aspects and paid great attention to her image in her dealings with others.
She has a good figure and good looks, she cares about the commander and is loyal to him, and as for her special fetishes... she herself doesn't even know what they are, so how could Shokaku know?
Therefore, Akagi sat steadily with his legs crossed, and his fox tail swayed left and right behind him, attracting the attention of Su Xin, who was obsessed with fur.
When Shokaku saw the young commander couldn't stop looking at his tail, he thought it was just right, so he immediately slammed the table and gave a conclusion: "I heard it, the senior is a masochistic ship girl who likes to play plucking hair~"
Su Xin was stunned. She understood the word [masochism]. When she was reading in her previous life, she occasionally came across light novels. The characters had diverse personalities, so she had some understanding of the meaning of the word.
But what exactly does the term "hair plucking play" mean...Su Xin really doesn't quite understand.
Akagi didn't understand either. She didn't remember saying these two words, so she retorted: "I don't know what you are talking about. Did I crush your brain?"
"Heh... Commander, I haven't come here to ask for the tail hair for a long time. It has obviously grown back... Although it will be painful to pull it directly, it should be the most complete, right? It will definitely have a stronger smell... Ah... Commander~"
"You said all this, right? I heard it all, Senior~"
Akagi's soft tail froze, "How did you hear that???"
After she said this, she felt a phantom pain at the tip of her tail. It wasn't because Su Xin had pulled it before, but because she wanted to keep her hair intact, so she pulled it a few days ago.
If you cut the whole hair in half, not only will it look ugly when it grows longer, but the cut part will only add up to a small bunch, and Akagi smells it and finds that it only has a very faint smell.
What she wanted was to demonstrate her ownership. If there weren't enough hairs in the sachet, the smell would be bland, and if too much hair was cut, the tail would become bald. After weighing the pros and cons, Akagi thought of pulling out the whole thing, but she didn't expect Shokaku to hear what she said.
However, she didn't think it was something shameful, so without any explanation, she simply made her tail bigger and then stuffed it into the little commander's arms.
"Even if there is, what's the problem? As long as the commander is willing, Akagi can cooperate with anything... But you, colluding with Atago, what do you want to do?"
Su Xin was so excited that she could touch the tail that she nodded unconsciously, but in the eyes of Shokaku and Atago, she was waiting for them to explain!
"How do I explain this..." Shokaku pursed his lips and glanced at Atago, "If she hadn't said that there were private photos of my senior in her phone..."
"...Wait a minute."
"Why does she have a private photo of my senior? Doesn't the stinky fox usually wear a set of ship uniforms...?"
Thinking of this, Xianghe looked at Ai Dagou suspiciously and found that the other party's eyes were wandering, and he was obviously racking his brains to think of a corresponding explanation.
Seeing Su Xin obsessed with rubbing his tail, Shokaku simply took out his phone in silence and sent a message to Atago who was sitting not far away.
Shokaku: [Speaking]
Atago's phone was silent. After a slight vibration, Shokaku watched her take out her phone and glance at it. Then she looked at him in confusion, with a look of bewilderment on her face.
Shoukaku ignored him and continued texting.
Shokaku: [Reply to message]
Atago: [???]
Shokaku: [Where did you get the private photos of the fox?]
Atago: [No, isn’t this the main point now? Come up with an excuse to hide it!]
Shokaku: [Where did you get the photo from?]
Atago: [Last time I wanted to talk to her about a truce, but she refused to give me half of the Commander. I was so angry that I saw she had just finished a shower and there was a hole in the back of her pants, so I took a picture of her to embarrass her... What's wrong?]
Shokaku: [How dare you slap your senior's butt???]
Atago: [??? That's a hole for sticking your tail out, I have one too, I just wanted to laugh at the old-fashioned style of underwear she was wearing...]
Just after posting, Ai Da Gou heard the person next to him slam the table and stand up, as if he was furious, "How dare you take a picture of your senior's underwear!!!"
