After all, facing a guy like Frederick the Great who doesn't dodge at all, most people don't have a strong desire to fight. Only a back-and-forth fight can arouse the desire for victory.
The roar of artillery fire is a daily occurrence in the port area. In other places, roosters crow, but in the port area, cannons speak directly, which is more useful than alarm clocks in some ways.
The sound of the cannon proved that public official Eugen had arrived for work.
Eugen was really impressed. He thought he moved into the port area to take a vacation, but he didn't expect that he could skip the vacation and write frantically every morning before going to work.
After writing it, not only did I have to reorganize the records, but I also had to answer the unclear parts in the official reply information, and all the work went on until late at night.
If Commander Su hadn't promised that she would be welcome to change jobs after the job was over, she would have quit long ago.
At this moment, she was staring at the two people fighting on the water and didn't even notice Su Xin approaching her. It was not until she heard a familiar voice that Eugen reacted.
"Hmm...your word..."
"Drink? Ah...you're here?" Eugen didn't have time to turn around, so he could only answer at the same time, "If I don't write like this, I won't be able to keep up with the speed. I can't help it."
"Hmm... I heard Mingmiao say that you took a lot of beer. Do you have time to drink it?"
"Hmm? Beer is important, okay? As the saying goes, 'Time to drink beer is like water in a sponge, if you squeeze it you'll always have some', so of course there is time."
"...Don't add your own content to the famous saying."
Eugen smiled, and while writing with his right hand, he accurately took out a can of cold beer with his left hand, and then handed it to the little conductor, "Please open it for me."
Su Xin had drunk Coke before, so she wouldn't encounter the strange situation of not being able to open the bottle after trying for a long time. She immediately pressed the gap open with a "click" and then handed it back.
"Here."
"Thank you." Eugen took the cold beer, tilted his head and squinted at the training ground with one eye, and took two gulps while memorizing the data. "Woo~~~~Wow! It feels good."
"...In a way, you are also amazing..."
"Hmm? Thank you?"
The young commander stopped disturbing Eugen's work and instead stretched out his hands to the "Iron-Blooded Gundam" behind him, "Hug!"
Frederick the Great smiled gently, squatted down and hugged the person in his arms, then suddenly increased his height, raising Su Xin's sight to about two meters.
"Well, has your horizon broadened a little, my child?
"Of course, I can see it very clearly, thank you sister."
"Huh? You clearly called me 'Emperor Mama' last time, why did you change it back this time?"
"Uh...Because, because I always feel a little ashamed..."
Frederick the Great rubbed the commander's cheek and said, "I heard that you used to call the light cruiser of White Eagle 'Sea Mother'? What a pity, I obviously like that name too..."
To be honest, it's quite embarrassing to call someone "Mom" when she has the personality, body shape and even willingness to be your mother.
But Su Xin was now being held in the other person's arms, with a burning gaze of expectation, and a rather unyielding attitude, which forced her to speak with a blushing face.
"Da, Dadi Ma—"
"Oh my god, is it raining?!" Eugen wiped his face and screamed, "Don't fall into my wine, where is the umbrella? Sister, please help me!!"
Frederick the Great's half-raised mouth corner dropped again, and he stood behind Eugen, looking down at the "bad boy" in his own camp with a prickly look.
Su Xin was distracted by this and really diverted her attention. She raised her hand to cover Frederick's forehead and asked her maid, "Sister Dido, do you have an umbrella?"
"Eh? Yes, yes, but I didn't consider this situation and only prepared three umbrellas..."
The young commander thought for a moment and said, "Sister Monarch and Sister Izumo are in training and are not needed for the time being. Sister Louis IX hasn't arrived yet."
"Three umbrellas for six people, just enough for two people. Can you help Sister Eugen to cover her notebook first? Her notebook is getting wet..."
The maid rushed forward with an umbrella to help, and gave one to the onlooker Neptune at the same time, so that she and her next exercise opponent Ibuki could be slightly protected from the rain.
Louis IX was playing chess at home and had not come out yet. He only needed to send a message to ask her to bring a few more umbrellas so that he could avoid getting wet in the rain.
The only problem now lies between Frederick and the little conductor, who have a huge height difference.
"Well... Sister Frederick, can I hold the umbrella for you? Won't it be tiring to hold it with one hand?"
"No, kid, you're very light, why don't you let me do it? Otherwise you'll catch a cold after getting wet."
The young commander took a look at his current situation. With the support of the emperor with one hand, he was nestled in the other's arms, suspended in the air. Even if the wind blew, only his shoes and trouser legs would get wet.
"It's okay, at most your pants will get wet. But sister, since you are holding it so close to me, you will definitely get most of it wet, right?"
Frederick the Great was stunned when he heard this. "Ah... the trouser legs are still not covered? Then I can just move them down a little bit——"
"Mother, the umbrella... the umbrella was pierced by your horn..."
"Hmm? What did you say? Can you please say it again?"
"The umbrella is punctured!"
"No, can you call me 'Ma Ma' again? I want to hear it."
“Is this the point?!
Chapter 747 Where to look?!
Because it was raining, Su Xin had nothing to do after breakfast.
According to her usual habit, she would go straight home to read, or write symbolic data for Anchorage and others, and stay in her room until lunch time.
But in order to maximize the time she spends with the ship girls in the port area, she moved the recording work to the evening, and by the way, she could also help Laffey with her homework.
Now was the time she had planned to wander around, but the rain kept falling outside, and she was afraid of catching a cold, so she had to stay in the cafeteria and stare blankly.
Ninghai and Pinghai are cleaning the stove in the kitchen
In the past, because there were many dishes and quite a few people dining, it took some time to wash the dishes every time. Now with a dishwasher, it doesn’t take much effort.
Dunkirk did not leave after dinner, but stayed with the two of them to clean up the kitchen.
She would use the kitchen to bake some pastries, most of which would be given to the greedy destroyers, with a small portion left for Jean Bart and Louis IX, who lived under the same roof.
Although Jean Bart is tall and aloof, he is actually just like a little sister in her eyes.
Although her speech is not as roundabout as the "tsundere" that everyone often jokes about, she still has to speak in a roundabout way, and most of the time she is just being stubborn.
As for Louis IX... Dunkirk doesn't know much about her. Things like factions are a long time ago. Now all the ship girls have the same goal and there is no conflict of interest.
Dunkirk felt that since he was staying in the Donghuang dormitory, he should at least help to improve the relationship with the residents.
The maid was pouring tea for the young commander in the hall. Considering that he didn't like sweets, she didn't put the cake on the table. As a result, Neptune asked for a piece.
Although this research ship is also wearing clothes similar to a maid outfit, it gives people the feeling that it is more like a little girl who found a cosplay costume out of interest.
He would deliberately run to Su Xin with the cake in his hand to eat, and occasionally pick up a piece and pass it to her.
The little commander, who had suffered before, was not fooled at all. The embarrassing situation of his upper teeth hitting his lower teeth when he stretched his neck before was still lingering in his mind. But he decided to forget it. It would be nice to see the little guy grow up.
To be honest, compared to the way she looked in my memory, Helena has changed quite a lot. At least she didn't look at me with such focused eyes before.
As if he didn't sleep well, he yawned, blinked, and continued to stare at him.
This made Su Xin feel a little pressured. She always felt that it would be awkward not to say something, so she paused and asked a question that would not go wrong.
"Um...are you okay with your injury?"
"Are you concerned about Nana?" Helena smiled brightly, a little like her past. "Nana is very happy~"
This would not have been out of place if little Helena had said it before, but now that Helena is supposed to be the older sister, it sounds a bit weird.
The observer who had eaten for free was also present. Unlike the Purifier, she was not a homebody. She wanted to take the opportunity to observe the peculiarities of this human up close, so she sat in the corner.
Hearing Helena, whose age was unknown, say this, she was a little disgusted, "...You think she's your ancestor, and you still call her sister?"
Su Xin was also quite embarrassed, but Helena didn't think there was anything wrong. She ignored the observer and didn't even look at him.
The observer didn't get an answer, but he didn't get angry. Instead, he changed his expression and moved closer to the little commander, "Susu~"
"...Why did you suddenly call me like that?"
"Because when we first met, I didn't know your name. Now that you've moved in, of course I have to change it~"
"...Well, I just don't get used to it."
"It's okay. I'll call you a few more times and you'll get used to it." The observer curled his lips. "By the way, I used to think you and that guy Enterprise were in a relationship..."
Dido was holding a teacup and was about to send it to the kitchen when her hand trembled. The delicate porcelain fell to the ground and broke into pieces. "...Huh? Ah, ah, sorry! It was, it was Dido's carelessness!"
Su Xin felt puzzled. Seeing the maid bending down to pick it up, she subconsciously tried to dissuade her, "Sister Dido, just use a broom. Be careful not to cut your hands."
"Eh? I, I understand. I'll go right away!"
The observer curled his lips, "Have you forgotten that she is a ship girl, how could she be cut by debris..."
The young commander was stunned. She had indeed forgotten. In daily life, there was really no difference between ship girls and humans, so it was normal for them to forget their identities.
But Helena's reaction was much bigger, her words were all defensive: "Oh, what do you know? There's a reason why my sister is loved by everyone."
Just as the observer was about to retort, he heard Su Xin beside him suddenly say, "Sister Dido, that trash can is for kitchen waste..."
The maid was stunned and subconsciously apologized first. Her strangely persistent master pulled her aside and taught her about garbage classification for a long time before she cleaned up the mess.
Being interrupted, the observer did not say anything else and just stared at the body which had shrunk a lot in his impression.
The gaze was so scorching that even Su Xin, who had gotten rid of her fear, could not bear it and immediately thought of a topic to talk about.
After thinking about it, she found that there was indeed something she needed the Siren's help with.
"Observer, I have something to ask you."
"Hmm? Go ahead, but I have something to ask you too..." The observer licked his lips and became more energetic. "How about you ask one question and I ask one question, how about that?"
Su Xin thought about it and nodded, "Okay, I want to ask if your Siren's [Carrier] can be customized? Are you selling it?"
"That's two questions. I'll answer the first question first. It can be customized, but it can only be used by the [Siren Ship]. Now I'll ask you, how did you go back to the past?"
"Well... depending on the [unknown data] you observed, let me change the second question. Is there any way to create a [carrier] that can be used by non-Siren ships?"
The observer thought for a moment and snapped his fingers. "Okay, you should know that [Enterprise] stole my [Data Core] before, right? I'll rely on that."
"...octopus eggs?"
"I'm not an octopus!" The observer slapped the table. "Although the prototype of the ship's equipment is similar, it is definitely not what you imagined!"
"Then how do you lay eggs... I mean, how do you produce the [Data Core]?" Commander Su Xiao thought for a moment, "How do octopuses lay eggs?"
She recalled the way an octopus mother laid eggs in a documentary, and her curious eyes swept around the observer, then gradually looked down with confusion.
Before she could think clearly, two loud clapping sounds rang out.
Observer: “Where are you looking?!”
【Helena】: "Where are you looking?!"
Chapter 748: First Graduation
With two light shouts, the Q&A session ended abruptly.
Su Xin didn't really understand the situation, she was just curious. It was inevitable that she would catch a glimpse of them when she was in the pool with the ship girls, but she didn't expect these two to react so big.
She had no choice but to look away, but she still didn't give up. After thinking for a while, she asked quietly: "When will you produce the [core]? Can I see it?"
"cannot!"
"cannot!"
It's a pity that the perverted little commander doesn't realize it. "Then do you have any stock? Can you help me build a body? I'll give it to others."
"You think I'm a hen, laying eggs for you every day for breakfast, right?!" The observer retorted angrily, "This is a precious item that can only be produced a few times in a specific period. Do you understand the value of it?"
Su Xin understood, it means it's not the egg-laying period yet.
That was a pity, as she had originally planned to ask the observer to create a body in Suzuka's image so that Suzuka would have something substantial to attach to.
After all, in her opinion, spirits cannot eat rice or drink soup, and cannot taste many delicious things, which is really a disadvantage for them.
Since the observer cannot produce the "octopus eggs" in a short period of time, this matter can only be put on hold for the time being.
Ning Hai in the kitchen heard the noise and quickly came out to ask what was going on. "What happened? Did they have a fight?"
Su Xin shook her head. "It's okay. Are you done cleaning up? You can come out and rest for a while. Sister Dido has prepared some tea and desserts."
When he heard there was food, Pinghai squeezed out from behind Ninghai and ran out in three or two steps.
Ning Hai could only sigh and called Dunkirk, who had finished his finishing work, to come out for tea and chat.
