Miss Hood didn't look very well. In this situation, she suddenly felt a little pain in her waist.
Guanghui was smart and understood what Hood was thinking after a moment's thought, so he teased his friend in the same camp with malicious intent.
"Ah... Looks like a torpedo hit the ammunition depot... The explosion was quite violent."
Miss Hood: "......"
"It should be okay to leave it there, right? It seems to be sinking very quickly. Um... Sheffield, why don't you go check if Su Su is injured?"
Miss Hood recalled the sad past and looked up at the sky. She felt that her body, which had recovered a lot, was starting to feel unwell again.
The weather was not so cold at that time, and the sun was not so bright, but my smoke seemed to be much thicker than that of the Siren ship.
It hurts, it hurts too much.
Miss Hood, who was immersed in tragic memories, didn't even notice when Commander Su Xiao came back until he poked her waist with his finger.
"ah!!!"
Miss Hood covered her waist with her hands and screamed, then took a big step back, with a look on her face that said "I will beat anyone who touches my waist again" and so on.
"...Are you okay, Sister Hu De?" Su Xin asked with concern, which made Miss Hu De feel much better.
"It's nothing. It's all over anyway."
Miss Hood turned her head and looked into the distance, looking nonchalant. After waiting for a long time and hearing no one respond, she turned around and saw that the three of them all had an expression that said, "You say it, I believe it."
She was embarrassed and annoyed without showing any emotion. "What's wrong? That incident in history was just an accident. How could I remember it until now?"
Su Xin silently began to stab, "Sister Hu De, that time you seemed to have fired a total of five salvos, 5 rounds of 20mm shells, but... didn't hit a single one?"
Miss Hood couldn't help blushing, frowning and trying to calm down, "I... I didn't wear glasses that time..."
Guanghui coughed lightly and tried to hold back his laughter, but Miss Hood heard the cough and reacted, glaring at the little commander.
"Are you doing this on purpose? Last time you were talking about 'desensitization therapy' and were about to hit my waist with your fist. This time you're just going to do it one-to-one, right?"
"...? I didn't." Su Xin complained, "The armor is too big to be cut through. In order to save time, the bomb magazine is obviously faster."
Miss Hood threatened her, "Say that again!"
Commander Su shut up and followed Miss Hood forward. Not long after, she seemed unable to resist her curiosity and raised her eyes to ask.
"Sister Hood...?"
"do what?"
"If you meet Bismarck in the future, will you fight?"
Miss Hu De said righteously, "How could it be? She came to our port area, so she is a sister. Who can tell what happened in history? You can't hold a grudge against her until now, right?"
"Oh..." Su Xin paused, "What if she hits you on the waist during the exercise?"
Miss Hood tried very hard to swallow back the words "I can't beat her to death!" and said something righteously: "I will wear glasses next time."
"I see... Then what if——"
"Ah, there's a Saiqian battleship ahead, why don't you go there quickly!"
Su Xin opened her mouth, then closed it silently. After Guanghui released the carrier-based aircraft to maintain air superiority and patted her on the head to encourage her, she rushed forward with a knife and a mine.
Miss Hu De waited until Su Xin walked away before she sighed softly, "Ah... why do you always ask such weird questions? Can I hold a grudge against you for the rest of my life?"
Guanghui chuckled to himself, looked at the time, and simply shouted to Su Xin who was scraping not far away: "Su Su - it's time to eat, save one ship from being sunk~"
The little man not far away raised his voice and answered: "Okay -
Immediately there was a violent explosion, and the originally huge Siren battleship was once again broken into two parts at the middle and rear ammunition depot.
"Hiss..." Miss Hood squinted her eyes and looked ahead, "Did she do that on purpose? Because I don't want to answer those questions?"
Guanghui raised his hand and patted her gently, "Don't guess blindly, this is indeed the fastest way, isn't it?"
Miss Hood glanced at her and said unhappily, "Even you are like this..."
Only after all the large battleships and aircraft carriers sank to the bottom of the sea did Su Xin turn to deal with the remaining cruisers and destroyers.
In order to have a place to eat, she changed the place of explosion this time. While shutting down the energy supply system, it only caused a small area of breach and water came in. It should be able to hold out for a while.
The three onlookers saw the remaining destroyer sink and the cruiser stop moving, and thought it was the end, so they all walked up to the ship.
Su Xin also went to the command room, and found a mind cube on the floor inside.
"Oh..." Su Xin thought, "This must be a lost item."
Just as he was about to pick it up, the Rubik's Cube suddenly floated up from the ground, absorbed all the light particles that inexplicably appeared around it, and then turned into a human form.
The three people outside were still talking and laughing as they boarded the ship. "This cruiser actually looks quite familiar. It should be modified by our Royal Navy, right?"
Guanghui said as he walked in, "I remember this model is a bit like the Edinburgh-class-"
"Gui An, I am Belfast, the second ship of the Edinburgh class. It's our first meeting. If you need any help, please let me know."
Guanghui and the others were stunned, staring at the new ship girl who had a small chance of being born in the command room, not knowing what to say.
Su Xin was obviously surprised, but she knew what was urgent and what was not. She turned around and asked Sheffield, "Can we eat now?"
"...If you were this positive normally, you wouldn't be wearing a child's vest."
“I’ll change it right away!”
Sheffield did not respond. He just glanced at Belfast, who looked calm and composed, and sighed silently in his heart.
"It looks like I'll have more free time in the future."
Chapter 474 Royal Parade 3
"So... Belfast was fished out by you?"
Su Xin, who was sitting cross-legged on the velvet cloth, opened her mouth and was about to answer Guanghui's question when Miss Hu De, who was sitting next to her, patted her leg lightly.
“There is a way to sit.”
Su Xin paused, tilted her head to observe Miss Hu De's ladylike sitting posture with her legs sideways and knees bent, and followed her example. It was not so standard, but at least the shape was there.
Miss Hu De was very satisfied with the young commander's understanding. She nodded and thought that he was easier to teach than Fang Zhou. But before she turned around, she found that Su Xin was secretly staring at her waist.
"...What? Thinking of bad ideas again?"
"No, no." The young commander shook his head, assessed his own combat capability, and gave up silently. He turned around and replied, "Well... it's not that bad, it's just... I suddenly woke up?"
Belfast knelt beside Guanghui, not saying much, just accepting everyone's gaze with a smile.
In fact, she had no intention of sitting down. After all, as a maid, she should have stood behind others.
However, the people in front of her obviously did not have so many hierarchical concepts and treated her very friendly. In addition, Sheffield, who was also a maid, sat very naturally, so she followed suit.
There is usually some sensory connection between ship girls, and even without asking, they can roughly know what name of the ship inherited by the other party.
The same is true in Belfast.
She could clearly tell that the aircraft carrier next to her, wearing a long white gauze dress, was the Glory, and the gunboat opposite her, dressed meticulously, was the Hood.
Sheffield was even easier to recognize. Apart from his aura, the pair of metal boots he wore on his feet could easily be associated with his title, "Shining Sheffield".
"But the one in front of me..." Sheffield looked at the "ship girl" wearing a knitted hat without leaving a trace.
She was probably a little over meters tall, even shorter than when she took off her high heels. Nothing much could be seen from her clothes, except that her eye shadow was a little heavy.
"... This makeup doesn't look like a royal style."
Belfast didn't see any ship equipment, so it was hard to tell what type of ship it was. She seemed to be a difficult person to get along with, and her expression didn't change during the entire conversation.
After Hood took a picture of her, whether she adjusted her sitting position obediently or secretly looked at her waist to think of ideas, it showed that her mind was not yet mature enough.
"I guess it's a destroyer?"
"But... I really can't sense which ship it is."
"And Sheffield just said 'Master'..."
"...How could a human get into the Siren ship? It shouldn't be..."
.....
".. . Belfast?"
Belfast came back to his senses from his thoughts and responded softly, burying all his guesses in his stomach without showing it at all, "Yes."
Guanghui smiled and handed over a handkerchief, "Don't be so reserved, just wipe your hands first, we can eat and talk at the same time."
Belfast thanked him and took it. She wiped her hands and wondered in her heart. Although she had just arrived, she knew that the energy food of the ship girl was special oil.
"Does drinking oil need to be so formal?"
Belfast took notes silently in his mind, thinking that he would have to pay more attention to the sense of ceremony in the future.
After everyone had done a simple cleaning, Sheffield began to take things out of the space.
Belfast had prepared to take over the oil and even give it a straw as a "fine lunch", but what it saw was a plate of sandwiches.
Belfast was stunned for a moment, then looked at the other party who kept placing plate after plate of food on the neat velvet cloth beneath him.
"Buns, salads, sushi, cakes, steak... do you want to eat these?"
The new prospective head maid was a little surprised. She thought that the ship girl's space should be filled with oil and other equipment for different purposes.
Bringing so much food like this, and even having different tableware for each person, was really hard for her to understand.
After seeing Sheffield taking out several wine glasses and unopened bottles of red wine, Belfast found it even more outrageous. How could one drink red wine on the sea? This was no longer a ritual, was it?
"This one is yours."
Belfast was stunned for a moment, but finally took the cup from Sheffield and said, "Thank you."
"...They seem to be quite... wealthy?"
Looking around, everyone took up their knives and forks and started eating, but the unknown ship girl on the opposite side was using chopsticks. I guess she is from the Donghuang camp.
Guanghui's words of "talking while eating" were indeed true. After chewing and swallowing a bite of the sandwich carefully, she wiped the corners of her lips with a handkerchief and turned to ask Belfast:
"How is it? Is it to your liking?"
"It's delicious." Belfast responded, and after thinking for a while, he couldn't help but raise his head to talk to Su Xin out of curiosity, "Hello, excuse me, are you... a ship girl?"
The others were not surprised to hear the question. After all, their little commander was indeed special. If it was not stated clearly, no one would have guessed that this girl who was able to fight and resist was a human.
Su Xin didn't answer, but asked her: "Then I assume that you have decided to join our port area?"
Belfast nodded hesitantly. She thought she had no choice, but after getting to know each other briefly, it seemed like this was a good choice, both in terms of the atmosphere and the conditions.
"That's good." Su Xin took a sip of the pure milk in front of her, "I am the commander. You should have heard Sister Sheffield call me "Master"."
"...Yes, but I don't quite believe this conjecture."
"Well... for various reasons, you can actually think of me as a ship girl, um... a ship girl who doesn't drink oil, but you have to keep it a secret, okay?"
Belfast nodded. He hadn't fully digested the content yet, but the importance of the news was obvious. The fact that he could be told this so easily showed that the atmosphere in the port area must be very good.
"At least it shows that... so far, no ship girl wants to leave here?"
"... You can't just silence them."
Seeing Belfast thinking calmly, Su Xin simply gave a brief account of the situation in the port area.
"My name is Su Xin. You can call me by my name, Su Su, or Commander. But if you are outside during the event, remember to change it to Xiao Akagi to avoid being exposed."
"We are now sent here for support. The port area is actually quite far from here. It takes about ten days by train."
"Well...there is nothing else to pay attention to, except that my special features cannot be exposed. I also need to pay attention to a ship girl in the port area."
This was quite novel. Belfast had thought that everything was absolutely harmonious, but she had not expected that there was a secret behind it. For the sake of her future job as a maid, she quickly perked up and listened carefully.
"Her name is Qingye. She is a reporter assigned to our port area. I have been avoiding her when I go out these days. I think there will be no problem after I avoid her at different times."
"But when you chat with others, you still have to be careful not to mention me. If you do, don't talk about my affairs."
"As for the rest... it's nothing, there's no need to be so reserved."
Guanghui smiled and eased the atmosphere a little, "It's okay, you can talk more with Sheffield, our family is actually very casual."
Su Xin nodded when she heard that, then quietly crossed her sore legs, only to be slapped by Miss Hu De again.
"Sitting position."
".··oh."
