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

However, soon, a ship girl wearing a knight's outfit with a red and white main color scheme and long chestnut hair appeared at the door of the command room. Unlike the other ship girls who stopped briefly, the ship girl named Quejie stood there for a long time.

After all, unlike the other ship girls who were just passing by, Quejie had a reason to enter.

After repeatedly mentally preparing himself, Quejie suddenly closed his eyes, as if he had made up his mind. He took a step forward, quickly took out his phone from his pocket, opened one of the apps, and began editing at lightning speed.

"I'm standing outside the command center, under immense psychological pressure! I desperately need help from anyone who sees this post! I'm waiting online, it's urgent!!!"

Chapter Seventeen: Jiebao, Fly Freely, Mom Will Always Be With You

Quejie: ​​"As the title suggests, after nearly two years of scheduling, today is finally my turn to become the secretary ship. But for some reason, I feel a lot of pressure when I think about the commander. I'm afraid of making a mistake. I'm so nervous standing at the door of the command room. What should I do now?"

Quejie: ​​"Huh, is nobody here? Or is everyone still asleep at this hour?"

Quejie: ​​"Please, please! Someone come and save me!"

Berets (Fiji): "Choje? Are you on duty today?"

Quejie: ​​"Hmm!"

Fiji: "Alright, don't be nervous. All you need to do now is relax. Although the commander is a bit aloof, he is actually quite tolerant of everyone."

Quejie: ​​"But I just can't relax!"

Prinz Eugen: "Don't worry, there's nothing to be nervous about. Just go in the same way you went in before. The Commander won't even glance at you, so it doesn't matter."

Quejie: ​​"Huh???"

Ke Wei: "Indeed, I bet the Commander won't exchange more than ten words with you in a day after you go in."

San Francisco: "Ten sentences is too many, five sentences at most."

Felix: "It's already a lot if you don't say a word."

Shark (Lüzoff): "You guys are completely leaving no room for imagination for this young girl, aren't you?"

Felix: "I give her room for fantasy, but who gives me room for fantasy? Seriously, you stupid commander, every time I'm the secretary ship you just leave me there and ignore me! One day I'll tie the commander up and really tarnish his reputation, and then if the commander begs me, I'll give him a reward. If he begs me, I'll give him a reward."

Harbin: "Knowing the Heavens is Easy".

Quejie: ​​"What do you mean?"

Harbin: "Defying fate is impossible."

Aurora: "6"

"Forbidden!" (Fearless) replied to Felix: "You won't succeed with this. I couldn't even handle the Commander before, and now it's even more terrifying after being enhanced by the Meta-Cube. I only tried it briefly and didn't dare to try again."

Lüzov: "?"

Felix: "?"

San Francisco: "?"

San Francisco: "No way, you're serious?!"

Fearless: "Huh? So none of you have tried it with the Commander? I thought you all knew that."

San Francisco: "I'm completely out of my depth! I'm really out of my depth! Just because of what you said, I'm going to abandon my ship and equipment. The moment you exposed me, I was sweating profusely and felt cold all over. My 'Jade Proof' instantly kicked in. I'm like Taihou caught by a mackerel, Helena without her SG radar, or Little Jaja who's called a destroyer. I'm really completely out of my depth!"

Little Witch (Saratoga): "??"

Atago: "It's fake, it's all fake! I don't believe it, I don't believe it!"

Bremerton: "No way, this whole thing has gone completely off track. Can't you guys be normal for once?!"

Felix: "It doesn't matter. It's all the same no matter who's on duty. The commander won't even give you a second glance."

Quejie: ​​"No! QAQ! I want to help the Commander as much as I can, even just a little bit. Don't you seniors have any ideas?!"

Bremerton: "Don't listen to them. The commander isn't that scary. Just like Berets said, relax."

Quejie: ​​"I... I'm just afraid that after waiting so long, finally becoming a secretary ship for a day, I haven't been able to help the commander at all."

Bremerton: "Then you don't need to worry about that at all. The things the Commander has to do every day are too specialized. Not to mention you, there are very few ship girls in the entire port who can help the Commander."

Bremerton: "I can't help with big things, but I can help with small things, like helping to get documents, pouring the commander a glass of water, or notifying the ship girls on duty there to prepare when I know where the commander is going. But you'll have to figure that out yourself, because generally the commander won't ask you to do anything; it's all based on experience."

Quejie: ​​"Wow, there are so many intricacies involved! I feel like I was actually making things worse during my last shift. What should I do? I'm even more nervous now."

Bremerton: "It's alright, everyone's here. You go in first, and ask everyone if you have any questions."

Bremerton replied to Felix: "You agree, right? The self-proclaimed senior who knows the Commander best~"

Felix: "Of course! Although it doesn't matter who it is, my understanding of the Commander is second to none in the port. I can tell what the Commander is thinking just by looking at him. Since you call me senior, please feel free to ask me any questions you may have!"

Quejie: ​​"Mmm! Thank you everyone for your help!"

Bremerton: "Okay, it's getting late, you should go in now."

Quejie: ​​"But, but I haven't figured out how to greet the Commander yet..."

Pei Ji: "Just do whatever you're used to. Take a few deep breaths before entering the command room. Don't be nervous, just stay calm."

Felix: "Ahem, that's right. You need to understand, generally speaking, the place where commanders spend most of their time is either the command room or a research institute, library, or tactical academy. After you go in and say hello, you can ask for relevant information and prepare in advance."

Quejie: ​​"Okay, I understand. Well then, everyone, I'm going in. Wish me luck!"

Sheffield: "Keep it up!"

Pei Ji: "Jiebao, fly high, Mom will always be with you."

Bremerton: "Jack, fly high, Mom will always be with you."

Hao: "Jiebao, fly high, Mom will always be with you."

Outside the lounge, seeing everyone's encouragement, Quejie finally mustered up the courage to push open the door to the command room and resolutely walk in.

……

On the other side, in the lounge and kitchen.

Despite feeling that she had acted quickly, when You Ran followed Belfast to the kitchen, she found that Belfast's attire had suddenly changed. Although she was still wearing the apron with black ties, she was now dressed in a maid outfit that looked a bit out of place.

No, was he hallucinating just now? Where's his peach?! His juicy, tender, and huge peach? How could it just disappear like that?!

Looking at Belfast, who was wearing an apron and frying eggs on the stove to prepare breakfast, You Ran couldn't help but wonder if he was seeing things.

"Commander? If you're awake, you can go wash up now. Hot water is ready for you. If you'd like breakfast, you'll have to wait a bit."

Inside the kitchen, Belfast couldn't help but smirk as she watched the commander follow her up.

Actually, Belfast just wanted to test whether the Commander was in work mode or daily mode from the beginning. If it was in work mode, the Commander wouldn't have reacted even if she were naked, let alone if she was wearing an apron. Instead, he might have worried that she might catch a cold, or he might have lectured her on how bad it was.

But in normal mode, there's not much to say; it's all about feeling.

Now, looking at the commander following behind him, Belfast had his answer.

"Oh……"

Hearing Belfast say that, You Ran could only lose interest.

But just as he thought he had seen wrong and was about to wash his face to clear his head, he suddenly felt a soft touch behind him as he turned around. Then, You Ran was gently hugged from behind by Belfast.

"Alright~ Master, it's almost time to get to work. It's not good to be listless. Your little secretary ship is still waiting outside. Commander, you can go and see her after you've finished washing up. She seems quite anxious in the command room."

After saying this, You Ran could clearly feel Belfast hugging him even tighter.

Then, Belfast leaned closer, face to face. Her voice was very soft, almost whispering in his ear, but incredibly alluring, "As for Belfast, no matter when or where, she will always belong only to you. So don't be in such a hurry. Tonight, Belfast will still come over to make you dinner~"

Chapter 18 Damn it, I can't take it anymore, I'll smash the port area with one punch!

Quejie: ​​"Everyone! Something's wrong! The commander doesn't seem to be in the command center at all. I've searched the whole place but can't find him. Am I too late...?"

Felix: "It's hard to say. It's common for the Commander to work all night. If he's not in the command room now, he's probably in the research institute, right?"

I Love Invention (Leonardo): "He's not here. The Commander hasn't been to the research institute for a long time. If the Commander weren't such a cold person, I would almost suspect that he had been kidnapped by some other ship girl."

Bremerton: "Where else could the Commander be? The library? I don't think the Commander has been there in a long time."

Fiji: "Let's ask the all-knowing maid."

My proud master (Sirius): "I don't know."

Felix: "Oh, she said she didn't know."

Fiji: "......"

Fiji: "I meant Miss Belfast."

Felix: "But Belfast doesn't usually browse forums, does she?"

Fiji: "What on earth is going on in your little head all day long? Ask me in private."

Felix: "You know what I'm doing, why don't you ask yourself? Honestly, I'm not someone who can be ordered around by anyone except the Commander!"

Fiji: "I didn't ask you to ask, but you insisted on answering."

Bremerton: "Alright, alright, stop arguing. By the way, why isn't Quetzal saying anything? Is something wrong?"

Fiji: "Then it seems the commander must have returned, otherwise he wouldn't have been silent for so long."

Bremerton: "I hope the commander doesn't frighten the child."
