"Then, then don't poke my waist, it's itchy..."
Kewei thought, I can't slap you on the head or pinch your arm, right? What if you scream even louder, won't it be exposed?
However, in the current situation, it is better for them to say less. Who knows if the other party has bribed the staff to observe their every move in advance?
Kewei was used to being tense and always in the best condition, for he was afraid that the young commander's inadvertent slackness would be caught by the other side.
Fortunately, Su Xin was very determined. She quickly restrained her expression, straightened her body, and returned to the expressionless state she had when she entered the hotel.
The two of them remained silent until a slight sound came from the elevator car and the elevator to the 17th floor slowly opened.
Unexpectedly, what came into view was not a grand tea party, but a very ordinary public activity area with a few sofas where idle residents were sitting.
"...Hmm? Isn't it held in the lobby?"
"It seems that the scale is not as large as I imagined." Kewei breathed a sigh of relief and nodded to the approaching waiter. "Excuse me, which way should I go to room 1708?"
After asking for directions, the two declined each other's enthusiastic offer to lead the way and whispered to each other as they walked.
"If the tea party is held indoors, it's different in nature, less formal and more personal, which means you don't have to be as careful about etiquette all the time."
"Well...what about you?"
"...I can't help it. As a Royal Navy ship girl, these are the basics. I have to be careful at home, and I can't mess around when I go out."
"...It always feels very hard."
"So you must remember to come to the Royal Palace more often." Kewei's expression was dignified and elegant, but his words were rebellious. "When you come, even if I let myself go a little, my sister won't suspect anything."
"Well, you're using me as an excuse, right? I'm busy, okay..."
"Hehe... then don't blame me for taking the initiative to look for you. I have to hide even when I drink some Coke at home. I might as well go to the command room... Oh, right, don't you have a lounge there? Lend it to me to hide there?"
The young commander thought for a moment and said, "Well... no, that lounge is basically used by Sister Dafeng, you can't hide from it."
"Her? Wait...are you making progress with her?!"
This sounded strange, and inexplicably had a sour taste that Su Xin couldn't handle. She couldn't figure out where it came from, but she also knew that this represented a misunderstanding, so she hurriedly explained:
"...After I knock her out or tie her up, I'll let Sister Befa move in, so if you insist on coming... you'll probably be sharing a room with her?"
Kewei was disappointed but secretly breathed a sigh of relief. On the one hand, he felt that he was narrow-minded and always thought too much. On the other hand, he blamed Su Xin for talking nonsense and only agreed to explain it clearly after being asked.
After thinking it over, she still felt uncomfortable, so she simply squeezed the hand that was smaller than hers, but was squeezed back by the other party.
"Don't make trouble." Su Xin gently reminded: "Look ahead, it's Sirius."
"Well, are we finally here?"
Deep in the corridor, the maid with short white hair bowed to the two of them, then pushed open the door of the suite sideways and made a "please" gesture with a smile.
“Welcome, guests from afar. Thank you for your trust. Everything is ready. I hope you will be satisfied with everything that comes next.”
"Are you sure that classmate Su s-said she went in?!"
"...What's so unacceptable about this?" Atago moistened her lips, "The commander has grown up, and it's normal for her to do these things?"
New Jersey looked confused, "But, but who did she bring in?
"Who is it? It can't be a destroyer, right? I don't think the commander will be the second Ark Royal. She is so well behaved, she won't do anything rash."
"You mean the destroyers?! So you can bring anyone except the destroyers?!"
Everyone in New Jersey was stunned by the shock. The image of their old classmate, who was smart and well-behaved, was gone forever, and even the image of the police dog Atago became strange.
But standing in front of the Royal Hotel, the situation could not be more certain.
She saw it all with her own eyes. The two of them were kissing passionately in the back seat, and it was in broad daylight! There was even a driver in the car!
"You've fallen, you've fallen, classmate Su, how could you become like this QA Q..."
"But I still don't want to give up on you. I will do my best to bring you back on the right track!"
"But before that...J
New Jersey glanced at Atago who was secretly showing some interest beside him, and began to worry about how to get rid of her.
Logically speaking, the purpose of this trip is to catch an adulterer. If they arrive in time, they can still maintain their dignity. But if they arrive too late, what they will encounter when they walk in is a naked fighting scene.
Although Su was at fault first, as his best friend, New Jersey still intended to save his face and at least bring him back to be dealt with by the newlywed wives instead of being seen by the big dog.
"Well...why, how about you buy something for me first?"
"No, the hotel has prepared some. Just pay after you use them."
New Jersey: …
Atago: (V◇)~
"I, I really need it! Please buy it for me, Miss Atago. I'll be guarding the door here and wait for you to come back!"
"Haha~ your words are too immature." Atago patted the battleship's arm in a good mood, "Akagi and the others have almost used them up. Let's not waste time and go up quickly."
New Jersey wrinkled his face and let the other party drag him in. He could only sigh helplessly in his heart.
"Su-san, I really tried my best... I can only say that this is karma, right...?"
"Hello, is there anything I can help you with?"
Atago handed over her phone to show the photo and asked gently, "Have you seen this girl check into a hotel? Which room?"
The front desk staff was stunned and a little hesitant, "Excuse me, are you her...?"
"Well, it's her sister. She asked us to come over, but she suddenly stopped replying to messages just now. We don't know which room it is, so we can only trouble you."
"So... about fifteen minutes ago, the location is room 1708, do you want me to take you there?"
Without waiting for Atago to answer, New Jersey let out an "owl" as if his tail had been stepped on, and waved his hands to refuse in the face of the surprised expression on the receptionist's face.
"No, no, no, I, we can go by ourselves, thank you, thank you!"
"Well... you're so polite. Do you want me to call and let them know in advance? There are quite a lot of visitors in Room 1708 today."
New Jersey: "What?! No, more than one Z(*net)?!"
Atago: "What?! No, more than one◇~(*1vl*)"
Su Xin and Kewei were quite nervous before entering the door, fearing that they would see a scene that was too grand as they had imagined.
Surprisingly, the large suite didn't seem to have any special decoration and could even be described as messy.
Square cushions were scattered all over the floor, the carpet was wrinkled, the commercials on TV were a little harsh, and the only thing related to the tea party was the three-tier dessert stand on the round table.
Kewei was stunned, opening her mouth, not knowing what to say. Compared with the relatively low-key little commander, she, dressed up, looked like a peacock in a chicken coop, which was out of place no matter how she looked at it.
"This... I'm so sorry. Please wait a moment. Sirius will clean up and then invite you to take a seat." The maid closed the door and bowed, then turned to pick up the pillow.
Kewei shuddered, came to his senses, and waved his hands with a smile, "No, it's nothing, it's just that invitation...Ahhhhhhh!!!"
"What happened suddenly?!"
“Hand…Hand-!!!”
The little commander who was pulled into the man's arms and held tightly looked in the direction and found a hand holding a stump of limbs, swaying unsteadily behind the sofa.
If it was Su Xin in the past, she would have been scared and even opened her mouth to sing a duet, but this time was different. She was brave enough not to panic at all. She looked carefully and finally shouted
"Hmm... is it scary?"
The terrifying trembling movement paused, the hands behind the sofa also stopped, and then a girl with a pale face stood up with one hand on the backrest.
"You...know me...?"
"Well... sort of. What you're holding in your hand... is it your hand?"
This sounded a bit confusing, but Horror nodded as if he was used to it, "...I'm sorry, it fell again...Is it a guest...?"
Su Xin patted the threatening look that was squinting her eyes and peeking at him, freeing herself from the soft embrace. Only then did she have the leisure to observe the existence that had frightened the aircraft carrier.
Short white hair, scarlet eyes, and scars on both sides of the head that looked like giant screws driven into the skull. There were hideous scars visible to the naked eye all over the limbs and torso, and black lines embedded in the flesh, connecting the various parts of the body.
This creation, which looks like it was made by dismembering and splicing the bodies of a murderer, is indeed quite intimidating, but the scars with sticky threads will only make the little conductor who is good at sewing feel uncomfortable.
"...Can I come over?" Su Xin asked, her hands itching. After getting a yes, she dragged Ke Wei closer with stiff movements and sat down. "Do you still have the needle and thread you usually use?"
The terrifying man tilted his head to look at the calm human for a while, handed over the steel needle as long as his middle finger, and then took out a thick black thread and placed it on the table together with the severed limb.
Rather than looking terrified and unable to maintain her composure, Su Xin, who was overly calm and even curious about the severed limbs, made her more alert.
The young commander picked up the limb that was severed from the middle of the forearm. It felt cold but still soft. She squeezed it slightly, and the man opposite her who was looking at her frowned in horror.
"......itch."
"Hmm? Ah, sorry, you can still feel it even if it's broken? It's amazing... Um, let me sew it up for you first? Can you feel the pain?"
Terror shook his head, stretched out his left arm to facilitate the small command movement, and then observed this human very straightforwardly.
Pale, delicate, fragile, and unable to be repaired by stitches, the only thing worth praising is probably their intelligence, which they have been praised for? At most, a face that still looks delicate when observed closely.
"..."

"Do you want me to pull the string tighter? Will it be uncomfortable?"
"......Won't."
"Hmm... Isn't this a wound? If the ship girl soaks in the pool, it can heal the wound, right? Doesn't it work for you?"
"...It was broken to begin with...I have to sew it myself..."
"Well, that's really hard work."
Horror blinked and looked at the girl in front of her who spoke so warmly. She felt curious and after hesitating for a moment, she wanted to say something, but the other party let go of her arm.
"Okay, let's see if you can move."
He lowered his eyes in horror and looked at the severed part. The wiring was regular and the scar was not noticeable. It did not look like a stitched limb, but more like a simple rope-like tattoo.
"...very beautiful, thank you."
The young commander breathed a sigh of relief, looking at the other broken parts of the trunk with thread ends sticking out, and said eagerly: "How about I help you put them all together-"
"Okay, you can stop now."
Su Xin and Ke Wei were startled when they heard the voice. They turned their heads to look at the bedroom door that had been opened at some point. A light cruiser with long blue and white hair leaned against the wall and greeted them leisurely, "Hi~ Commander Su, nice to meet you~"
"...Ajax?"
"Oh? You actually know me~ Ahhh... I really like you more and more."
Ajax took a seat, then raised her black-silk-wrapped foot as if to offer alms, and lightly tapped the little commander's knee. "You...are interested in this, right? How about using it instead of kissing the hand?"
Kewei frowned and was about to explode when she saw her little commander shrinking towards her in disgust. "This doesn't absorb sweat. It will get dirty easily."
Ajax stared, stretched his long legs and moved his butt to try again, but was startled by the door being kicked open suddenly.
"boom!"
New Jersey: "Student Su! Think twice!!!"
Atago: "Little Susu! Sister can do it too!!!"
…”
"........."
New Jersey: "You, you actually made a date with someone you don't know?!"
Atago: "You like black stockings, why don't you look at me?!"
Kewei touched his leg, the little commander's face turned black, Sirius picked up the last pillow calmly, Ajax withdrew his tentative legs in disappointment, and another person walked out of the open bedroom.
Only Horror was as cold as ever. She raised her hand to take the cookies from the dessert stand, but her right hand, which had not yet been repaired, suddenly broke and fell on the table with a "bang".
"...Ah, it fell..."
“(>]<) Uwaa ...
Chapter 813 Entrustment
New Jersey & Atago: "S-Sorry..."
Su Xin snorted in annoyance, "You actually imagined me to be that kind of person, really...Have you finished writing the review?!"
The battleship who came to the port for review lowered his head and replied hesitantly: "Still, still a little short..."
