Su Xin, who was thinking about something, came back to her senses and realized that it was the excited Mutsu who was calling her, "...Huh? What's wrong?"
Mutsu, who was childish at heart, quickly forgot about the few rounds of depressing games and turned to a new topic, "Is there a new sister joining us?"
"Well... I'm not sure yet. I need to ask other people what they think."
"Oh... So are we going to feed the sparrows now? Or catch some bugs? Are bugs scary? What color are they? Will they bite me?"
Just as Su Xin was about to answer, Nagato on the other side looked a little embarrassed and interrupted softly, "Lu, Mutsu...!
The little battleship suddenly became depressed, "Well... Okay, sister, I won't ask the commander..."
Seeing that Mutsu's high emotions quickly subsided, Su Xin hurriedly squeezed Nagato's hand gently, and turned her head to coax her: "It's okay, it's okay, your sister Nagato just wants you to speak slower."
"Really?" Mutsu poked his head over the little commander in the middle and looked at Nagato whose cheeks were flushed. "Sister, you - drink? Why are you blushing?"
"No...nothing, I did mean...that." The majestic Sakura Empire flagship tilted its head and looked into the distance.
Su Xin continued, "See? You can ask anything, okay? But we have to do it one by one. First of all, we won't feed sparrows today because we can't see them here. But there are a lot of seabirds."
"Oh! Where's Bugs?"
"There might be some on the beach, right? They hide in the sand, leaving only a small hole, so you have to look carefully for them. And they're not scary. Their color... is very similar to sand. They won't bite people either."
The little battleship was relieved when he heard it, clenched his fists and raised his fighting spirit, "Oh!!! Then Mutsu can also help!"
"Well... we can look for it together after the tide goes out."
"Really? What about your sister? Can you come with us?"
Nagato actually couldn't imagine herself squatting on the beach, digging the soil with Mutsu and Commander Su Xiao. This was not in line with her usual style.
But if you really ask her whether she wants to play or not, of course she wants to try it.
It's not just because I've never been involved in anything like this before, but also because the people I'm close to and the people I want to be close to are all around me, and I feel happy just thinking about it.
but……
"...Commander, do you think... I can participate?"
"Hmm? Why are you asking me?" Su Xin didn't hesitate and answered as a matter of course, "Of course I think you can go. If you care... we can secretly find a beach with few people."
After hearing this, Nagato looked much more relaxed. "...That's good. You can arrange the rest."
"Hmm... The place where Sister Shinano and the others sleep is pretty good. After they wake up and leave in the afternoon, shall we go for a walk over there?"
"...good."
Nagato nodded in response, and took the opportunity to look behind him. After pausing for a moment, he nodded into the air and murmured softly, "I agree, but... not for too long."
"......"
"Yeah, just for a little while."
...
"...Can."
"Are you talking to me?" Su Xin tilted her head and looked over.
Nagato shook his head, "No, I was just talking to myself, you don't need to pay attention to it."
"Oh...Okay, then I'll take you to sit under the parasol for a while? I need to walk around."
"it is good.
Chapter 911: Smart Beach Life 2
"Commander, you're here."
Although she was wearing a swimsuit, Kaohsiung still sat upright on her knees with her back straight, her hands folded on her legs, and bowed to Su Xin who greeted her.
Atago, who was sitting with her legs crossed, seemed at ease. She took the drink away and smiled, "Susu, you're here. Do you want to try some iced juice from Ming?"
Su Xin glanced at the glass filled with red juice in Dagou's hand. The end of the straw, which was of the same color and had a heart shape around it, was shiny with water, and it was obvious that he had drunk it.
Without waiting for the other party to ask questions, Atago leisurely lay back on the beach chair so that the drinks on the low table next to her were visible, lest the young commander think this was a tease and become wary.
This trick worked very well. At least Su Xin, who was invited, did feel a lot more at ease. After walking closer, she sat down next to Kaohsiung and looked at the empty lounge chair.
"Sister Kaohsiung, don't you want to sit down?"
"Atago only prepared two, the other one is for the commander." Kaohsiung straightened his back, like a clerk being questioned by his leader, "The juice is also prepared for you, watermelon and mango, you can choose first."
After being questioned by the observer for a long time, Su Xin found out that she was indeed thirsty. She immediately stood up and walked to the low table. After hesitating for a moment, she looked at Atago.
Ai Dagou glanced at his sister who was staring blankly into the distance, smiled secretly, pouted his lips towards the watermelon juice, then moved his long legs and kicked towards Kaohsiung naturally.
Su Xin understood and took the iced mango juice. She also brought another glass of watermelon juice to Kaohsiung. "I like mango juice. Is that okay?"
Kaohsiung was happy for a moment, but immediately hid his emotions and took the glass with both hands, "Of course, thank you Commander."
"You're welcome." The little commander secretly glanced at Atago, who was smiling, and asked casually, "Are you tired these days? With all the continuous attacks and so on."
"No, rather, this kind of experience is just what I want. It is necessary to improve myself every day. Attacking can make me progress. If that's the case, then it's good."
"Hmm...wouldn't you like to go play in the sea for a while? I heard from Sister Atago that you like swimming?"
Ai Dagou, who had never said this, raised her beautiful eyebrows, swallowed the watermelon juice, pretended not to notice Kaohsiung's gaze, bit the straw and hummed a song, not choosing to expose him.
Su Xin also breathed a sigh of relief. While she had a better impression of Atago, she also felt annoyed that she subconsciously copied the game settings.
Because she didn't have much to say to Kaohsiung before, and the other party was very serious, and they were not that close, she really couldn't think of a topic, so she had to talk about those hobbies.
Fortunately, Atago didn't expose her, otherwise the situation might have become even more difficult to handle.
Kaohsiung actually believed what was said. After all, she knew very well what her sister was like. Besides being eloquent, she was also fond of talking nonsense. It was very normal for her to reveal her hobbies to others.
"Yeah, I like swimming..." Kaohsiung responded helplessly, "Because the commander hasn't arrived yet, I can't just leave here casually. It would be bad if you make a wasted trip."
"How can it be a wasted trip? Sister, you go swimming and I can stay here and chat with Susu, right?" Big Dog interrupted.
Kaohsiung hurriedly shouted: "...Atago, stop talking nonsense!"
"Ah... you are just too serious." Atago simply stood up and sat on the picnic blanket, clinking glasses with the little conductor softly, "Look, Susu is getting nervous too."
With another person beside her, the awkward atmosphere was broken. Su Xin relaxed a lot and took a few sips of mango juice. "Well, it's really delicious. Is it expensive? Ming Miao likes to cheat people out of their money."
Kaohsiung understood what Su Xin was saying and tried to soften his expression. "It's not expensive. It's freshly squeezed juice with sugar and some ice water. Ten dollars a cup."
"She didn't even add a zero at the end? That's rare... maybe she was stimulated by something."
"I'm not sure about this. Sorry."
Su Xin moved her butt and sat closer to Kaohsiung. After thinking for a while, she raised her hand and clinked the cup like Atago, "There's nothing to apologize for. Just think of me as your sister. We are all family."
Kaohsiung listened to the crisp collision sound, subconsciously curled the corners of his mouth, and his stiff shoulders softened. He breathed a sigh of relief silently, "I understand. Please give me more advice in the future."
"Hmm~"
Atago looked at the heartwarming scene next to her and immediately leaned over, saying, "I want to toast with my sister, too," while pressing her plump and soft breasts lightly on the little conductor sitting in the middle.
After clinking glasses, Atago immediately retreated to a safe distance. The whole process was extremely quick and natural. Even Su Xin, who felt the other person's body temperature, could not find any fault with it.
This kind of ambiguous attitude would not trigger Commander Su Xiao's alert procedure at all. After all, she had even done negative distance contact, and her threshold for sticking had also increased a lot.
From blushing when holding hands to being able to hold hands and hug naturally now, the "grown-up" Su Xin's way of getting along with other women has finally returned to normal.
And this is exactly what Atago wants to see.
"It's a pity that we need to be careful about the impact during the event." The calculating Love Dog sighed while biting the straw, "Otherwise I could have found you for morning exercises like we did in the harbor..."
"Well... are you talking about frisbee and badminton? There's really not enough space and the wind is very strong. Let's wait until we get home to continue." Su Xin drank half a cup and felt a little sick of it.
After sitting quietly for a while, Kaohsiung stood up and patted his legs to shake off the scattered sand. "Commander, I want to go to the sea to relax for a while. Do you want to go?"
The young commander who could walk on water but was still a landlubber shook his head and said, "Although I really want to try, I have never learned it and I will probably choke on a lot of water.
Kaohsiung nodded, without forcing it, and took the mango juice from Su Xin's hand and put it back on the low table together with his own cup, "Atago."
The big dog turned around and looked at his sister leisurely, "Hmm?"
"...Forget it, I'll go over first. If you want to go home, don't wait for me. I'll clean up when I get back."
"Hmm~ Have fun~"
"Commander, see you at lunch then."
Su Xin waved her hand obediently, "Yeah, sister, go play, bye."
Kaohsiung nodded, walked on the sand towards the beach, leaving behind a series of footprints at equal intervals.
After she walked away, Atago approached the little conductor and asked with a smile, "Whose legs are longer, mine or hers?"
"...I remember that sister Kaohsiung is two centimeters taller than you? So she should be taller?"
"Tsk tsk...you really know how to talk, but you really can't talk."
"Well... I'll take that as a compliment." The little commander also stood up and patted his butt, "I'm leaving too, ok? I've made an appointment with everyone, and there are still many people I haven't met yet."
Atago chuckled and raised her hand to help the other party brush off the unnoticed fine sand, "You are really busy... Don't move, there is still a little here on your legs... Okay, go ahead, see you at noon~"
"Well, thank you, see you at noon."
Ai Dagou watched Su Xin leave the protection of the parasol and walk farther and farther away. Then he lay back on the beach chair with brisk steps, took the half cup of mango juice and sucked it gently.
"Hmm~ Mango peach juice, strange but delicious..."
Chapter 912: Smart Beach Life 3

"Crack, crack, crack, crack
"Hehehe... the expelled sisters in swimsuits are so cute!"
"It was great to be able to watch them all get together and build sand castles and stuff like that! Thanks to Ms. Veneto..."
"Crack, crack, crack
"The inventory of spiritual comfort has increased again, summer... summer! I like summer the most... drink hehe..."
Wearing a beautiful blue swimsuit, the mature and beautiful royal woman was sitting under a parasol, holding a digital camera and quickly pressing the shutter button.
Not far away, a lot of people were squatting or standing next to three unfinished sand castles, but she always had only one target, which was the Veneto group with the most destroyers.
Although their sand castle progressed slowly because there were many children, who would look at the sand when they came to the beach? Of course, it was -
"Hehe... Of course I'm expelling the girls--" The familiar peach scent drifted over with the wind. Royal Ark put down the camera and changed his words at the speed of light, "The girls' safety is the most important!"
"If you accidentally fall or sprain your ankle, as the leader of the [Protect and Expel Sister Support Group], I will definitely rush to comfort you as soon as possible!"
"Keep an eye on the safety of your surroundings and lend a helping hand to the poor and helpless destroyer. I am on standby here for these tasks!"
Su Xin, who was walking slowly closer, couldn't help laughing when she heard these righteous words. "Thank you for your hard work, Sister Royal Ark."
"Ah! It's Angel Sister - uh, it's the Commander. What a coincidence! I actually met you here."
"Unfortunately, I was planning to go shopping today, and I saw you just now, so I came over. Can we chat for a while?"
Royal Ark quickly put away the camera, stood up and saluted, then stepped back two steps to make room for the clean area on the picnic blanket, "Of course, please sit down!"
Su Xin nodded and squatted down. She didn't really sit in the middle, but swept away the sand on the edge of the tablecloth, sat down with her legs bent, and occupied half of the table.
After all, the picnic blanket that the Ark Royal brought was very small, and she probably didn’t expect anyone would want to squeeze in with her, so if she didn’t sit close to the edge, she would have to stand on the carrier.
"Don't be so nervous, I'm just taking a walk." The little commander patted the empty seat next to him, "Sit down? Otherwise, I'll be taking over your place."
"Ah, I've never thought of this before! Sit, sit here... sit down right now!"
He acted boldly from a distance, but felt very weak once he got close to her. The incompetent Royal Ark moved to Su Xin's side at a turtle's pace and sat down stiffly.
Compared to Commander Su Xiao's rather feminine sitting posture with knees crossed, Royal Ark chose a very serious Sakura-style kneeling posture, with his waist straight and his whole body tense, looking tiring.
Su Xin looked at her for a long time, and finally reached out and gently poked the other person's calf that was pressed underneath, "Doesn't it hurt?"
"Hiss—No, it doesn't hurt!"
"Relax a bit, don't you like destroyers? I don't, so why are you so nervous?"
Royal Ark shuddered, "Oh my God... Commander, that's a normal liking, not a weird or perverted one, please don't misunderstand me!"
"...I never said that." Su Xin poked the other person's calf again, "Just sit normally. I'm here to have fun, but you're so nervous, it's like I'm inspecting you."
