"Ah... I thought it was originally attached to you." The curious look in the little commander's eyes quickly dimmed, and he lowered his head and started eating noodles again.
Yixian just said that Ayanami had already eaten. Su Xin guessed that the other party must have been waiting for a while, so she ate the noodles very quickly and ended the battle in just a few minutes.
"Well... shall I take you to the command room to sign some documents? Then you can choose a room."
Ayanami had no objection to this. She did need time to tidy up the house, meet the ship girls, and get familiar with the facilities and infrastructure in the lower port area. It would be best if she could complete the procedures as quickly as possible.
So Su Xin wiped her mouth, asked Befa to eat slowly, and went to the command room with Sheffield and Ayanami who had changed jobs.
Ayanami doesn't talk much, and is very similar to Su Xin in the past, with few expressions and a rather cold voice. It may be because she has arrested so many people, and she has a natural majesty BUFF.
This made the young commander, who was also not good at finding topics, even less willing to speak.
She didn't give a detailed introduction along the way, but simply talked about the major areas in the port, as well as the monthly salary and extra pocket money.
Ayanami didn't show it on her face, but in her heart she was surprised by this monthly salary which was almost twice her own. Adding pocket money, this amount was almost as much as her quarterly salary.
This is nothing. The key point is that Su Xin said that all the equipment and weapons are provided by the port area. Yubari, a former researcher from [Tide Calling], will tailor the most suitable equipment for each ship girl.
"...Are you so rich?" Ayanami was somewhat unbelievable.
Su Xin herself has a small treasury that is growing in real time, but she can't say it openly, so she can only touch her nose and say modestly: "It's... It's okay."
After hearing this, Ayanami immediately began to doubt her life. She thought for a long time but still couldn't figure out why she had stayed in the gendarmerie for several years.
Because the cultural shock brought by the economic strength was too strong, Ayanami basically didn't listen in the second half of the journey. She only came to her senses when she arrived at the door of the command room that looked like a small villa.
Su Xin took out the key to open the door, and after entering, she quickly took the document and handed it over. When Ayanami had carefully read all the terms and conditions, she handed the pen over for the other party to sign to complete the process.
"Okay." The little commander put away the file and filed it away, then heaved a sigh of relief. "Now you can go choose a room. The ones with signs on the door mean that someone lives there. Other than that, any room will do."
Ayanami was so shocked by the overly generous treatment that she nodded dryly, seeming a little awkward.
Beifa, who just finished breakfast, came after them, and Su Xin asked him to take Lingnan to the dormitory. As for herself... of course she was just slacking off~
After the two of them left the house, Su Xin, who had just straightened her back, immediately relaxed and curled up on the sofa, sighing comfortably, "Well... It's still so cold. What should I do today..."
"You can go to the auditorium and see if Sister Cleveland has fixed the excavator..."
"Or go out with Sister Yixian to buy New Year's goods?"
"Ah...it's time to change my underwear. It seems to be a bit tight..."
The sloppy maid standing by suddenly interrupted: "Excuse me, but when are you going to give me the clothes you got dirty on the train?"
Su Xin took a few seconds to react before she remembered what the other person said. Her fair face suddenly turned red, and she stammered and tried to force herself to respond:
"I…I lost them all!"
"You returned to your room at 8:40 last night, read for nearly an hour, said goodnight to us at 9:55, and turned off the lights at 10:05."
Sheffield, who had been standing guard at the door until midnight, said confidently, "You have used as many as eight sets of underwear, the washing machine has never been started, and hand washing takes time. In summary...
The scumbag maid bent down from behind the sofa and stared at the little commander who tilted his head back to look at her, "You haven't washed yet."
Su Xin was shocked when her revelation was exposed. She opened her mouth and didn't know how to refute.
She indeed hadn't washed it yet, mainly because she was a bit of a germaphobe and the kind of person who didn't brush her teeth or go to bed. She usually washed her own underwear, so it wasn't a big deal, but this was the first time she had such an "unforgettable memory" attached to it.
In addition, the shock she received that night was too much. She always felt that the memory was some kind of evil taboo. Whenever she recalled it, she felt numb all over.
"What a sin..." Su Xin shuddered and quickly buried them deep in her mind. She then managed to retort, "I forgot! I...I'll go back and wash them now!"
The annoying maid didn't insist and followed Su Xin back to the dormitory, but was stopped outside the door by her.
"I'll do it myself, you can just go back and rest. Goodbye, sister!"
"Clap."
Commander Su leaned against the door and took a deep breath, trying to lower the temperature on his face, and silently encouraged himself.
"You are already an adult. This is a very normal phenomenon. You should treat everything with a normal mind..."
"..."
"It's so cold, and the water is icy, how about machine washing?"
"..."
"Since we're going to get a new one anyway, why not just wash it and throw it away?"
Su Xin was convinced by herself and ran to the bathroom. She rolled up the soft clothes and stuffed them into the washing machine without even looking at them. She quickly set the timer and only felt relieved after it started.
But just as she breathed a sigh of relief, someone knocked on her door.
Commander Su felt strange and couldn't guess who it could be, so he went straight to open it, and found out it was Sheffield.
"...I-I'm already washing."
Sheffield glanced at her and suddenly smiled faintly, "You seem to have forgotten something."
Su Xin pronounced it stupidly: "......Ah?"
"You were so tired that you fell asleep that night, and we helped you change your clothes."
"......!?"
The maid's white fingers were clasping a ball of cloth, and as the little commander's expression gradually became unhappy, she spread it into the other's palm, then pushed the man into the room and closed the door from the outside.
"It's great that you're willing to take the initiative. This one is stained quite...thoroughly. Please wash it carefully, Master. Goodbye."
"..."
Su Xin in the room stared at her claws for a long time as if they were biological weapons, and finally sighed in grievance as if she had collapsed.
"...I can't keep this hand anymore."
Chapter 526 Where is Manju? Save him!
"knocking"
"knocking"
"...Commander, Lafite...can you come in?" The soft voice of White Rabbit came from outside the door, awakening Su Xin, who had been in a daze in the room for a long time.
She shook her head and glanced at her slightly wrinkled right hand, which was the result of washing her underwear six times.
"...commander?"
Su Xin came back to her senses, shook her hands and stopped thinking about it, walked forward in two or three steps, turned the door, looked at the pale Lafite outside and asked softly: "What's wrong?"
"Rafi wants to come in and play..."
There was nothing wrong with this, so Su Xin stepped aside and invited the person in. After thinking for a moment, she left the door open to ventilate the room, fearing that there would be some strange smell left in the room.
Rafi didn't understand the little commander's sadness. This time she ran into the room with a very clear purpose. She ran to the bed, took off her shoes and jumped on it.
Su Xin looked at the white rabbit bouncing on the bed and felt a little strange. "Well...it's almost ten o'clock. Do you still want to sleep?"
Lafite didn't answer, but climbed to the head of the bed, took out a pink pillow, moved the little commander's original white pillow, and placed the two side by side.
...sleep together."
"Uh... Actually, I'm used to sleeping alone..."
Rafi blinked his big round and watery eyes, and acted cute at the little conductor expressionlessly, which made him look quite pitiful, as if he was saying, "The rabbit is so cute, how can you chase it away?"
It's not that Su Xin was unwilling. Her sensitive physique that prevented them from sleeping together had been temporarily cured by desensitization therapy.
But she had been sleeping alone for such a long time, and the weather in the port area was not cold enough to require a small stove. After thinking about it, she naturally preferred to sleep alone.
Unfortunately, since they established a relationship, Lafite has become a lot bolder. Seeing that Su Xin didn't seem to be planning to agree, he immediately took off his coat and got into bed, occupying Su Xin's nest and not planning to come out.
Su Xin was also amused by the other party's rogue nature, and after a moment of stalemate, she had to agree.
"Okay, don't sleep in the middle of the day. If you don't put your toothbrush and towel in now, you'll have to sleep late again tonight, okay?"
Lafite, who was curled up in the quilt pretending to be asleep, jumped up when he heard the words, stepped on the carpet barefoot and ran to the bathroom. As a result, Su Xin pulled him back and carefully put on cotton slippers for him, and then let him go.
Rafi raised the corners of his lips slightly, and arranged his toiletries one by one. Two towels were squeezed on the short horizontal bar of the shelf, giving off a warm and comfortable atmosphere.
"Xiao Xiao Yue~"
Rafi was stunned when he heard the voice, and glanced at the washing machine that had stopped working in the corner, "...Commander?"
"Huh? What's wrong? Is there something that can't be put away?" Su Xin's smiling voice sounded from outside.
Rafi knew that the other party was in a good mood, "Washing machine... Rafi will help you take out the clothes?"
"Okay - wait a minute!"
White Rabbit had only taken two steps when she was stopped by her roommate's exclamation. She was confused and turned around to see that the other person had already rushed to the bathroom door.
"No... Don't worry about it, I'll hang it up later." Commander Su didn't intend to show the other party his underwear, so he could only try to calm down and persuade him: "Have you put it away? Shall we go out and play? Or take a nap in advance?"
"...but it's not even ten o'clock yet."
Su Xin choked, remembering what she had just said, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed, but she didn't want to let Lafite see that, after all...
She is almost a head taller than him, but her size is much smaller
"Well...but I have something urgent to do, and I want you to go with me!"
Rafi thought about it, then turned to look at her, "What is it...?"
"See Daddy Ke? Cook? Feed Gugu? Buy clothes? Treat me to drinks? Order a ring? Sunbathe? Play games?"
At this moment, thousands of thoughts flashed through Commander Su's mind, but in the end, she couldn't find a single reason that worked. Until she remembered the Hong Kong area's unshakable reserved program after every event.
"Oh, that's right! We have to go build it!"
"...But the ship girl who redeems the merits...hasn't come yet..."
Su Xin's eyes wandered, "Ah... because... because we still have a lot of inventory, I... I can't wait to welcome the new sisters, so let's build it first? Hmm? Hmm?"
"...Okay." Rafi didn't seem very interested, "Then...the clothes inside
"I'll just ask Sister Beifa to help me dry the sun later. It's okay, it's okay. Let's go first, okay?"
Rafi couldn't persuade her, so he nodded and walked out, muttering, "There are three of us...
Su Xin didn't hear it. She breathed a sigh of relief holding the warm rabbit paw and quickly took out her phone to send a message to Beifa.
SX: [Sister, can you please help me get rid of those in the washing machine? Please!]
Sister Beifa: [Of course, Ayanami's room has also been arranged. Please wait. ]
"Throw it away, burn it, cut it up, whatever, as long as it's clean."
Commander Su was relieved. He looked at Lafite, who forgot to wear a coat and only had a suspender, and took off his clothes and wrapped him up. Then he walked towards the construction warehouse with expectation.
Belfa arrived at the room later and looked around the empty room. He felt a little strange, but he still went to the bathroom and turned on the washing machine to check.
She found that the clothes were all white and soft, which made her stunned for a moment, then she smiled softly, "Are you embarrassed to dry your clothes? The commander is really a child."
"Well, the drying area is on the roof, right? The weather is nice today, so I think these will dry quickly.
Su Xin actually didn't plan to go to Dajian today, because she felt that her cube inventory was difficult to explain, but thinking that she had just finished an event, it was normal to have more cubes, so she invited a few ship girls she met on the way to go with her.
For a port area with abundant resources, large-scale construction is obviously a happy event. After all, who doesn't want their sister ships or good friends from the same camp to be born as soon as possible?
The one that people are most looking forward to and worried about is probably the destroyer Akatsuki.
She dreamed of reuniting with her three sisters, so she traveled thousands of miles to Beilian to look for Xiang, but there was no news of Lei and Dian.
Su Xin said that the reorganization of the 6th Destroyer Squadron could be achieved through construction. Xiang actually did not hold much hope for this, but there was indeed a certain chance, so she attached great importance to this major construction.
Since there was no prior notice, not many ship girls showed up, but this time Su Xin was planning to go "all in", so it was better to have fewer people, so that there would be no room for people to stand in the warehouse.
Since we have decided to build a six-wheel drive, we must continue to build [light pools].
Su Xin was very familiar with the construction process. She stuffed the Rubik's Cube into the cabinet and gave it the materials. After watching the little yellow chicken fill it with materials, she pressed the [Build] button steadily.
The moment the machine started, the young commander suddenly felt something flowing down his arm and out of his body toward the operating table. After being dispersed and gathered again through the catheters and circuits, it took shape in the construction cabin.
【??:??:??】
Su Xin had seen this number before. When the Glory was first built, a string of question marks was displayed. This was a normal phenomenon, indicating that the first round of construction was successful.
She was very happy. She moved the [Quick Build Device] and put it into the slot, one, two, three... until she put the ninth [Quick Build Device] into the machine, the time displayed on it did not return to zero.
"...Is there something wrong?"
Su Xin felt something was not right, and muttered to herself as she took another one and stuffed it in. If that didn't work, she planned to ask the yellow chickens to check the device to see if there was something wrong.
The result showed that the time of the question mark quickly turned into garbled characters, like the snow screen when there was no TV signal when I was a child, it became a blur. The pressure relief valve worked well, spraying the hot white gas into the air.
