After preventing the world from being destroyed, the ship girls started acting strangely.

"Really, really?"

Seeing that the little swan seemed to be really crying, You Ran felt a little embarrassed and wiped away the little swan's tears: "Of course, I was just joking."

"Ugh~ Commander, why didn't you say so earlier? You really scared me to death just now."

At first, she was just a little anxious and didn't really want to cry, but when she saw the commander coming over to comfort her, Little Swan couldn't hold back and suddenly threw herself into You Ran's arms and cried.

Originally, You Ran only planned to play with the little swan for a while before going back for lunch, but now it seemed a bit inappropriate to go back like this. Thinking that one more meal wouldn't make a difference, You Ran took the initiative to accompany the little swan to ride horses outside the horse farm for a while, until Hu De suddenly received a phone call, at which point You Ran stopped.

"Um, Commander, Repulse and Abercrombie got into a fight at school for some reason. Repulse is currently on patrol at sea and can't come back for the time being. He wants me to go to the school."

"Little Renown and Abercrombie are fighting? What happened?" You Ran asked, somewhat puzzled, as he was teaching Little Swan to ride a horse on horseback after hearing Hud's words.

"I don't know the specific reason either. I'm going to the school now. Do you want to come with me, Commander?" It wasn't very clear over the phone, and Hood only knew the general idea.

"Okay, let's do it together then. I also promised Hood last time that I would resolve the issue of Jupaopao."

As she spoke, You Ran rubbed the little swan's head in her arms: "Then little swan, you can practice here more. Don't keep feeding it fries. Ride it around more. If it's still as fat as fries when I come next time, I'll eat you, little fat goose, even if I don't eat fries."

It has to be said that the Little Swan's size is indeed a bit too much for a destroyer.

"Eat, eat me? Hmm..." Seeing the commander about to leave, Little Swan was a little reluctant, but when she heard You Ran's last words, she was stunned, and then suddenly blushed. Her determination to make French fries lose weight suddenly wavered.

……

Meanwhile, inside the school.

After receiving the message in the group, Nelson rushed from the Royal Palace to the port area and soon arrived at the campus. He easily found his way to the office door and knocked lightly twice on the door, which was not closed tightly.

dong dong dong-

Inside, Z23, who was grading exam papers, put down his red pen after hearing the knock on the door. "Come in."

"Um...z23, old...teacher."

Looking at Z23 in front of him, even though he had come so many times, Nelson still found it hard to say the word "teacher" each time. But after some internal struggle, he finally called out the word.

"Haha, actually Nelson, you don't have to be so insistent. Just call me Z23 or Nimi."

Although she holds a teaching position in the port area, Z23 doesn't act like a teacher much outside of class. After all, she wasn't born a teacher like Langley. Before, when there was still war, she would only come to the school occasionally to teach. She only officially took up the position recently after the war ended. To be honest, Z23 hasn't adapted to this role yet.

Chapter 183 The Raider Who Wanted to Teach Commanders Health Care

"No, actually, when I think about it carefully, it doesn't seem like a big deal. I'll still call you Teacher Z23."

After listening to z23's words, I realized that I had indeed been overly concerned about some things before. Now that I've figured it out, I feel much less awkward.

"By the way, where's Abercrombie? That kid is really giving me a headache; she's even learned to fight. I'm going to teach her a lesson this time." Nelson said with a hint of exasperation, waving his fist.

“Because class was about to start, I told Abercrombie and Little Renown to go back first. But now the first class should be almost over, so Abercrombie’s parent, you can wait aside for a bit,” z23 explained briefly.

"Oh, I see. Then I'll wait a bit."

This wasn't Nelson's first time here, so he wasn't in a hurry and found an empty seat to sit down.

“Actually, I don’t usually want to call you, Abercrombie’s parent, here. But that kid Abercrombie always agrees verbally but has a lot of tricks up his sleeve. I called you here this time to see if we can come up with a way to make him behave. Pranks between friends are fine, but tricking your classmate out of lunch is really going too far. Not to mention, I heard from Little Renown that this isn’t the first time.”

I've seen brats before, but I've never seen one this brazen. I feel like if we don't take action now, Abercrombie will be impossible to control if we wait any longer.

“This…” Nelson was also a little helpless. “To be honest, I don’t have any good solutions either. I feel like there’s no one in the entire port who can control this child.”

"That's not necessarily true~"

Just as Hood arrived at the office door, he overheard Nelson's words. In a pleasant mood, Hood couldn't help but speak up. Seeing that both of them were looking over, Hood, standing at the door, chuckled and said, "Sorry, I saw the door wasn't closed and just came in. I hope I didn't disturb you?"

As Yu Ran passed by the classroom, she suddenly wanted to stand outside the window and watch the children having class in the port area for a while. The office was only a few steps away, so Hu De came over first.

"No, but what did you mean by that, Hood?"

More than that, Nelson was curious about what Hood had just said.

“Nelson, didn’t you just say that no one in the entire port could control that kid? But haven’t you forgotten someone?”

Standing at the door, Hood glanced towards the classroom and saw that the commander was already walking in this direction. He then followed him into the office and then left everyone in suspense.

"Who?" z23 was equally curious.

"Can you guess what this school is called?"

That should be about right.

"Hood, you mean... the Commander?! That's true, but the Commander is so busy, how could he possibly be here?"

Before z23 could finish speaking, a sudden exclamation was heard from outside.

"Commander?! What are you doing at school?!"

Outside, You Ran, who had just arrived at the office door, was met by the Assault, who had just returned from class. You Ran's sudden arrival startled the Assault, because in her understanding, the commander would not come out of the command room or laboratory unless something major happened. She thought something had happened at the school, which is why the Assault was so surprised.

"I just came to see the kids. By the way, Raider, are you still teaching health and physical education?"

Raider is an old acquaintance of You Ran's, after all, he built the ship girl when the server first opened. He still vividly remembers the lucky five-air attack during one sortie. He often saw her when he first came to the port. Although so much time has passed, looking at Raider in front of him, You Ran feels that she is the same as when he first came to the port. He feels that Raider has not changed at all.

"Ah, well, of course we're still teaching it, but why are you asking this all of a sudden, Commander..." Already a bit flustered, the question from You Ran made things even more chaotic. But then, as if suddenly remembering something, the Assault fighter looked sharply at You Ran, "Could it be... could it be that you, Commander...!"

The attacker suddenly remembered the rumors she'd been hearing lately: that the Commander wasn't working much anymore, and that he'd been holding back for too long and now wouldn't be satisfied with less than seven or eight ship girls every night. The attacker hadn't believed them before, but since the Commander had come specifically to see her, that was probably the only possibility...

"Um..." The attacker's face flushed red. "Well, about this, I don't really have any solutions. The most I can teach you is to make you a little stronger, Commander. So you'd better be careful. Also, Commander, if you want to learn some less strenuous movements, I... I read a book before that had some techniques..."

"Um... what are you saying, Raider?"

"Well, Commander, don't be shy. Although this is a difficult thing to say, I am, after all, your teacher. There are no outsiders here, so just tell me what you want to ask. I, I can accept it."

Although it's a bit embarrassing to teach so many positions one by one, since the commander wants to learn, as a teacher, it shouldn't be a problem to teach him, right?

"I"

Just as You Ran was about to ask if the Raiders had misunderstood something, the office door opened, and Z23 and Hood came out.

"Commander? I thought Hood was joking, but I didn't expect you to actually come." A hint of surprise flashed in Z23's eyes.

Upon seeing this, the attacker was also taken aback: "Um, Z23, I mean, did you find the commander?"

The raider's heart skipped a beat; he suddenly had a bad feeling.

"Hmm, it seems the Commander came with Hood. Is there a problem?"

Although Z23 initially didn't believe, like Nelson, that the Commander would actually come to the school for such a trivial matter, now that he had met the Commander in person, he didn't know what to say.

"So, I see...."

So... so the Commander didn't come to learn that kind of thing from her, then in the Commander's eyes, what she just said must have made her seem like... like a pervert?!

The thought made the attacker's face burn, and as white smoke began to rise from his head, he whimpered and ran away, covering his face.

"Is there...is there something wrong with what I said?"

Z23 was somewhat at a loss as the attackers suddenly ran away.

Chapter 184 The Arrogant Nelson

Seeing the attacker suddenly run away, Z23 was a little confused for a moment, but she didn't care too much, because what Z23 cared about more was why the commander was here.

"It's nothing, probably something just happened to Raider. Let's go inside and talk."

Knowing that the attackers had misunderstood something, You Ran waved his hand and then walked into the office, with Z23 and Hood quickly following behind.

Inside, Nelson, who was sitting in his office chair looking at Abercrombie's exam paper from yesterday and occasionally frowning, didn't even look up when he heard footsteps behind him.

"Alright, is the show over? Speaking of which, I was just about to ask, Hood, what brings you to the school today? I don't know how you convinced the Raiders to come and lie to me, but this script is just too outrageous. If the Commander could come here today, I could have launched an airstrike."

Nelson, who had never believed from the beginning that any commander would come here, was so certain of this that he didn't even bother to look back.

"You could tell that?" Hood looked at the commander beside him and couldn't help but chuckle. "I came here because of the Reputation faction. They're out there and can't come back for the time being, so they sent me to check on things first."

She and Nelson were both Royal Navy ship girls, so they were quite familiar with each other and didn't stand on ceremony.

"Of course, do you think the commander is as free as us? He's probably still busy in the command center or the lab right now, he doesn't have time to come here."

As Nelson spoke, he sighed and flipped through the exam paper. It was unclear whether he was sighing because of Abercrombie's appalling exam paper or for some other reason, but Nelson's words made You Ran a little embarrassed, after all, he hadn't worked for more than half a month.

"Actually, I do hope the Commander can come. Although I really like that the Commander is ambitious, it's too much work for him. Sigh~ If I could, I would like to help the Commander."

There haven't been any battles lately, and there's no need to launch attacks. Whenever she has time, Nelson often goes to the library to study. However, reaching the level of a commander is too advanced, and Nelson doesn't know when she'll be able to catch up. But as long as she can be of even a little help, Nelson feels content.

"Haven't you heard what's been happening in the port lately? About the Commander."

Hood's expression was strange. If Nelson hadn't remained completely still, she would have thought he was just putting on an act because the commander had arrived.

Concentrating on the exam paper, Nelson didn't notice anything amiss. After thinking for a moment, he said:

"I have heard a bit about that, but putting aside whether those things are true or not, even if they are true, there's nothing wrong with that. Saturdays and Sundays are holidays, so it's good for the Commander to get some rest."

Nelson had heard about this before, but similar news had been circulating online for years. Except for when she was fooled by photoshopping when it first became popular in Hong Kong, which made her impulsively confess her feelings and feel bad for a long time after being rejected, Nelson never believed the news online again after that.

"What if the commander doesn't want to work anymore?"

You Ran couldn't help but ask, he really wanted to see what Nelson thought of him, unlike the ship girls like Charybdis who wanted him to lie low, but instead wanted him to work hard and make progress.

"Don't want to work? How could that be? If a commander didn't want to work, he wouldn't be a commander."

Nelson instinctively felt it was impossible, but after hesitating for a moment, he still said:

"However... let me tell you, when the Commander first came to the port, I couldn't wait for him to go to work every day and hone his skills. But now... if he doesn't work, he doesn't work. I think he has already done all the work he will need for the rest of his life in these past few years. Now I would rather he didn't work at all."

She certainly wouldn't say that to the commander's face, but it was fine to chat about it casually among friends and comrades.

"Phew~ Is that so? I thought you'd still be as stern as before, Nelson. Now that I've heard what you said, I feel much better."

You Ran breathed a sigh of relief, while Nelson, seeing that almost three-quarters of the paper was blank, reluctantly put down his test paper.

Seriously, once she has a little Nelson with the commander, if she dares to do that, I'll spank her until her ass is a pulp.

Nelson is very angry right now.

"Alright, by the way, how did you manage to imitate the Commander's voice so perfectly? If it weren't impossible, I would have almost thought the Commander had really come."

After tidying up the exam papers, Nelson stood up again and turned around as he spoke. But after just one glance, Nelson froze on the spot.

"Pointing...pointing at the Commander?! You...no, when did you get here?!"

Nelson was as shocked as he had been earlier, and as he recalled what he had just said, he felt ashamed.
