"Very...very cute..." Spence praised hesitantly, adhering to his usual stuttering style.
But Harman just kept his head down and said nothing, which made the two people very confused. According to Harman's previous personality, he should have put his hands on his hips and said something to them, but why would he just stand there quietly without moving?
"Why don't you speak?"
"H…Haman?"
Harman sniffed and started to shed tears, "I'm... I'm sorry... Harman shouldn't have said that about you... Harman shouldn't have used that attitude before... I'm sorry... Woo..."
"Hey, hey, why are you crying all of a sudden?"
"Ha...Haman...wuwuwu..."
Spence looked at the other person crying and started to cry too. The two little people were crying facing each other at the door. Only Bush had an innocent look on his face. He looked here and there, unable to stop.
"Why do you have to apologize? We don't blame you."
"Wuwuwu... eh?" Harman was dumbfounded with tears in his eyes, "Aren't you... angry and left?"
"No? Because we made you lose money, so we plan to go out and do some commissions, and earn some money to compensate you.
"Well then...then you can't just leave without saying anything!"
"I, I, I asked Bush to leave...a note for you...because you were...angry that day, and in the morning I...I didn't dare to call you..." Spence was also confused and explained stutteringly.
"There's no note! I searched the whole room and couldn't find it!"
"Eh...eh? Bush?"
Bush scratched his head, rummaged through the space under his coat, and pulled out a piece of paper. "Ah... Bush forgot."
"......That phone call, after so many days, you should at least call me and tell me!"
"It was raining on the road, and my phone was in my pocket and got wet..."
Harman raised his brows, turned his gaze to Bush who was holding a piece of paper, and glared at her angrily.
"Ah..." Bush suddenly realized, "I actually have a cell phone..."
Harman was shocked. "How dare you go out to run commissions like this? Why didn't you plan with me first?"
"Ah? Planning is so troublesome, just do whatever you think of..."
"What did you say?! You you you you—"
(-_-)
Harman shuddered and turned off the engine, "...You can rely on me more in the future."
"Eh? Is Harman going to be the boss of Bush? Although she is very reliable, the boss of Bush will always be Sister Fletcher~"
"Who wants to be your boss? Friends are friends, you know what friends are? Just trust me, idiot!"
"Eh——I heard from others that Harman has become a lot gentler..."
"What did you say?!"
"I'm sorry, I don't dare anymore. I don't dare anymore—"
Harman outside was chasing and tickling Bush, who was circling around Spence with his head in his hands. The older sisters inside were all very pleased that the children were able to reconcile, except the little ninja, who took out a kunai and struck at the wild brush.
"...What are you doing?"
"Hmm?" Xiao thought for a moment, "Kill the prophet."
wild:??
Watching Harman, Spence and Bush leaving, Ye thought for a moment and decided to turn around and say goodbye to Boss Cheng.
"Our part-time job ends today."
"Hmm? You won't stay a little longer? You've become a minor celebrity..."
Boss Cheng felt quite regretful. Although she didn't care much about the performance of the business and her savings were enough for her to live on for a long time, having more employees in the store would always make her feel that her life was more fulfilling and satisfying.
"No." Ye shook his head. The compensation from the four people in the past few days was enough for Xiao to use for a long time. If the other party was not unwilling to accept the resources he gave, they might not even come here. Besides, being famous was very important to Xiao.
This is not a good thing for Du Ye, so it is better to leave early.
"Okay." Boss Cheng took the order, signed it, and wrote down the number of days. "Thank you for your hard work. Come over when you have time. Harman will probably miss you too."
Quan Ye nodded, took the commission, and left with Xiao, who was reluctant to leave, and the two older sisters.
"Well..." Boss Cheng stood at the door for a while, "We have to ask Harman's friends to come to work tomorrow..."
"Alas... it's easy to get lonely when you get older..."
Just as she was lost in thought, there was a gust of wind above Boss Cheng's head, like the sound of a large bird of prey flapping its wings. She smiled, and tacitly stretched out her left hand as if she had done it countless times, so that the person who came just landed on her.
On his arm.
"Xiaoying, my strength is not what it used to be. Now I can hardly support your weight."
The white-headed bird of prey chirped softly and rubbed Cheng's cheek intimately, causing her to laugh out loud.
"You ran away again? You should have come with her."
Bai Ying took two steps, stood on Boss Cheng's shoulder, and turned his head to look to the left. Boss Cheng looked over there and saw two figures of almost the same height appearing at the end of the road.
She looked lovingly at the two people who were approaching slowly. One had a head full of white hair and was wrapped tightly, looking at her silently. The other had flowing blonde hair, wearing a denim jacket and a cowboy hat, exposing a large area of skin, jumping
He walked and jumped and waved at himself.
When he came to her, Boss Cheng had a chance to take a closer look. He nodded, smiled and told the blonde woman: "Remember to wear more next time."
After getting the response, he turned to look at the woman with only a pair of purple eyes showing, and listened to her calling him with a smile.
"Sister York City, we are here to see you."
York City pushed open the glass door, and the afterglow of the setting sun dyed the white dots at the roots of her hair into gold.
"Well, long time no see."
"enterprise."
"Bumblebee."
ps: Didn’t expect that today is the third update!
Chapter 143 One Day
"Are we going to set off right away?"
"Ah."
"Then...then do I need to prepare anything?"
Ye looked at the slightly panicked Xiao and said, "The ship equipment is all there, and as long as there are enough resources, that's fine."
"Well... I see. All I've been doing before were running errands and stuff like that, so I'm a little nervous..." Xiao felt embarrassed and scratched his head and smiled.
As a wandering ship girl, especially a destroyer, her ability is naturally not very strong. In addition, she is alone, so she can't complete particularly difficult commissions. She can only do some simple things, which leads to her combat experience.
Seriously insufficient experience.
At this moment, Quan Ye suddenly asked him to take a commission to clear the Sirens near the cordon. The sudden transition from the busy but warm and ordinary life in the coffee shop to the confrontation with the Sirens was a huge gap.
In fact, there are not many such cleaning commissions, but they are not rare either. After all, the official ship girls generally need to patrol a large area of the sea to ensure the safety of the area around the cordon. If they also take care of the task of cleaning up the trash, then their
The workload will be much higher.
Taking into account the rotation and overall status of the ship girls, the official outsourced the task of clearing the small Siren fleet as a commission. Therefore, when the official ship girls patrol, they only need to record the location coordinates of the sporadic Siren ships they encounter.
Write it down and send the commission directly when you come back.
This approach not only solves the employment problem, but also establishes friendly relations with the relevant organizations of the wandering ship girls, killing two birds with one stone, so the official is also happy to do so.
Anyway, these Siren ships will not easily cross the line to attack. According to observations over a period of time, they are mostly scattered around. If you don't attack them, they won't provoke you and will just wander around.
Besides, it is not a good thing that the Siren ship is always wandering around outside the cordon like some second-rate people. Regardless of whether it is safe or not, just looking at it is enough to raise one's blood pressure.
Do you think this is your home? Want to come for a walk? Since they are so scattered and so weak, why not just spend some money to hire someone to sink it, so that it won’t be an eyesore every day. Hence this scavenger commission.
"It's okay. We are responsible for interfering with the operations." Helena smiled and comforted Xiao. The group drove at a low speed on the waves.
The map provided by the commission was naturally given to Du Ye. After all, if they really wanted to let team leader Xiao lead the way, they might be on their way to meet the polar bear now.
"...Why are we moving so slowly?"
“The transport ship’s speed is not good enough.
Ye stared at the map and talked nonsense. Even if she glanced around, no one would notice that she was guilty. Hearing the steady and self-evident voice, Xiao believed it immediately. After all, Ye's prototype ship was indeed slow, and her own speed was twice as fast as hers.
Yu (Ye 14 verses, Xiao 38 verses).
Due to Ye's drag, the four of them spent a lot of time on the journey. Fortunately, there were enough resources, and Helena also brought a lot of food in the ship's space, so they didn't have to worry about going hungry.
It was already noon when they first encountered the enemy. The two Siren ships were swaying at a turtle's pace, as leisurely as if they were on vacation basking in the sun.
Helena carefully instructed Xiao, who was participating in the battle for the first time, "Keep moving, avoid the bombardment, and occasionally fire torpedoes to interfere."
"I...I understand!"
Xiao was obviously nervous, but she was not afraid of fighting. She had to find and reorganize the eldest sister of the 6th Destroyer Squadron. If she couldn't even accept this, then there was no need to talk about other things.
"what about me?"
Ye looked up at Helena. Although she could try to attack on her own, she was not sure if Helena would be angry. It would be better to ask first.
"Hmm..." Helena thought for a moment, unloaded a few torpedoes from Akatsuki and stuffed them into Ye's hands, "Just stay beside Shokaku to escort."
"Okay." Ye hugged Yulei tightly and stayed obediently beside Shokaku who was launching the carrier plane, his eyes fixed on Helena and Xiao who had already set off.
The first battle was not very intense. In fact, Helena and Akatsuki only slightly diverted the attention of the Siren, and then Shokaku's torpedo planes and bombers quickly resolved the battle.
Simple, fast and unpretentious.
With almost no effort, after a series of explosions, the huge Siren ship was destroyed. Before Akatsuki could even gain any experience or skills from the battle, the enemy ship was destroyed.
She only had time to search for resources, get the universal Siren certificate, pick up a palm-sized transparent blue Rubik's Cube, and ran back.
"It's... it's that simple?"
"Ah."
"Okay... so fast, what about the next one?"
"Well, this way."
The group went through nearly ten battles throughout the day and got four Mind Cubes. In fact, they could have gotten more, but the speed of the boat was really slow, so most of the time was spent on the journey.
They decided to take turns carrying the wild animal tomorrow, and they estimated that the harvest could be doubled. Of course, the kitten girl had no objection. Skating while standing up is not as comfortable as lying on someone else. It is warm and soft. Anyone who understands knows which one to choose.
It is worth mentioning that Xiao was originally curious about the capabilities of the Gonno transport ship. After all, it has no ship equipment and runs slowly. Can it really play the role of a frigate and protect the main output of Shokaku?
As a result, when she encountered a larger fleet, she saw that the transport ship could actually draw its sword to chop the shells and swing its hands to blast the torpedoes. It was truly a dream-like operation.
Shokaku obviously trusts R. Since she doesn't have much combat experience and can't control the carrier aircraft while paying attention to the dangerous situations around her, all the pressure is put on R., and she focuses on output.
Several times, when Akatsuki felt that a shell was about to hit Shokaku, she did not panic, because the petite black figure would always jump out in time and eliminate the shell threat at an extremely fast speed.
The same goes for the enemy ship's torpedoes. They will always collide and explode with the torpedoes thrown out by the fielder at a relatively close distance, and can only raise a large curtain of water, but will do no damage at all.
This skill, anyway, Akatsuki, who claims to be a ninja, can't do it, but since there is such a reliable frigate in the team, she doesn't have to worry about anything else and concentrates on executing her own interference operations. The cooperation of the four people is also
More and more tacit understanding.
After returning to the hotel in the evening, everyone relaxed and started doing their own things after dinner.
Shokaku had nothing to do, so he stayed in bed recalling the details of today's battle, wanting to improve his combat capabilities as much as possible.
Xiao Ze stared blankly at the resources she had exchanged for with the voucher today. To be honest, she had never received so many resources in her life. She didn't want them, but no matter how she pushed and refused, Ye and the others refused to accept them.
She was very touched that he was just leaving the Mind Cube.
Ye didn't plan to absorb the Mind Cube immediately, so she kept it for the time being and dealt with it together at the end to avoid any unexpected situations. She slept in the same room with Helena and was about to call her friends in the port area.
ps: I'm sorry, it's probably not possible to update 4000 words a day... It took longer than I thought. I will keep updating every day in the future, but the number of words should only fluctuate between 2 and 4. I'm really sorry...
Chapter 144 Good Night
"Okay... okay?"
"...It's not time yet."
