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

Kewei lowered his head, somewhat hesitant to meet You Ran's gaze.

Chapter 146 The Return of the Royal Fortune

"A petty thief who had ill intentions towards me broke into my house just now, but I've already apprehended him, which is why I was delayed for a while."

In a sense, this petty thief is not so petty after all; on the contrary, he is quite big.

You Ran looked at the formidable sight before her and thought about it carefully, but for a moment she really couldn't make a comparison.

"A petty thief?!" Ke Wei was immediately startled.

“Hmm.” You Ran smiled. “But for Ke Wei, it should be called a traitor within the family.”

"Oh, I see......"

Since it was a traitor from within the family, it must be Sister Shengli. Thinking of this, Kewei finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Honestly, I thought Saratoga had sneaked in and stolen the food. After all, whether it was "small" or "thief," especially the word "small," it really fit my impression of Saratoga.

"Commander, everyone is waiting for you. Go back and have breakfast." Kewei said, her face slightly flushed, as she took You Ran's arm.

Now that Victory and Unyielding have both succeeded, she should hurry up too.

"Ah."

Looking at the adorable little bird nestled beside him, You Ran nodded.

Indeed, online is online, and offline is offline; the two cannot be generalized. At least for now, You Ran really can't see any similarity between the current "Fearless" and the "Fearless" online. On the contrary, the "Victory" that seems to have no problems online has big problems.

Lost in thought, You Ran soon returned to the dining table. After several twists and turns, You Ran finally began to properly enjoy the breakfast that Guang Hui had made...

……

On the other side, not far from the bay in the port area.

On the vast, azure ocean, three ship girls surrounded by tentacles are currently traversing the surface. Their speed is not fast, but their goal is clear.

As they drew closer to their target, one of the girls, with her beautiful long dark brown hair, seemed to see something and then revealed an uncontrollable excitement.

"Ahhh~! I can finally see the outline of the port area~! I really didn't expect this road to be so long."

Facing the sea breeze, the Royal Fortune felt that the air around it was much sweeter, and the fatigue caused by the journey was swept away. The Royal Fortune shouted excitedly.

"You still have the nerve to say that." The Golden Deer pursed its lips. "Who told you to have a perfectly good teleportation portal and insist on sailing on your own? Otherwise, you could have saved at least several days."

"Oh dear! Teleportation portals are convenient, but how can they compare to the comfort of setting sail on your own? Anyway, we don't have anything else to do now, so it's nice to enjoy the scenery along the way." Hearing Jinlu's complaint, the Royal Fortune immediately smiled and comforted her.

Clearly, the Royal Fortune preferred the comfort of sailing on its own rather than using a portal.

The Celeste nodded in agreement, "I agree with that. In fact, as I watched it all the way here, I felt like I was inspecting the territory for the Commander. I felt a strange sense of pride."

“Right, right~! You can’t enjoy these things without a portal. Celeste, your opinion is just like mine.” Seeing that Celeste agreed with his thoughts, Royal Fortune was also very happy.

"It's a real shame that Vida and Gary didn't come this time. I really didn't expect the Sirens' technology to be so realistic in simulating the environment, especially that giant steel shark at the end. I was really startled when I saw it. I must bring the Commander to try it next time."

Royal Wealth suddenly said with some anticipation.

"You're still talking? If I hadn't hit that steel shark in the vital spot with my axe, we would have been wiped out long ago, and we wouldn't have been able to get the treasure in the end."

The scene from that time is still vivid in my mind.

It must be said that Sirens is really good at simulation technology.

"How come you got the first hit? Stealing kills is nothing. In terms of damage output, the final MVP should definitely be mine."

"Speaking of the Commander, I wonder if he missed me after I went on vacation for more than a week."

"Commander misses you? Do you think that's possible? You're more likely to miss me."

Originally, after the expedition, they were already eager to see the commander, but Royal Fortune insisted on taking the sea route, which delayed them for a few more days. As a result, Golden Deer was quite resentful and directly confronted him.

"Why is it impossible? Don't let the Commander's cold and saintly demeanor fool you; he's always been secretly concerned about me!"

Royal Wealth spoke with great certainty.

"You know, there was a time when I was ambushed by Sirens during a mission. I didn't even realize the danger was coming, but the Commander's long-range support had already arrived. After the Commander was enhanced by the Meta-Cube, whenever I encountered any danger, the Commander would come to my aid immediately. Since then, I've known that the Commander has always had me in his heart~"

As she spoke, Royal Fortune cupped her face in her hands, looking exactly like a young girl in the throes of first love.

"That's because you were careless. Besides, the commander cares about all the ship girls in the port. It's not like he has any special feelings for them."

"Hmph~" Seeing Golden Deer's "envious" expression, Royal Fortune laughed smugly. "Jealous because you haven't received any attention from the Commander? Hehe~ Well, there's nothing you can do about it. The Commander likes me a billion more than any other ship girl~"

Royal Wealth grinned and gestured with his hand towards the golden deer.

"Huh? You think I'd be jealous of you?! The most you've ever been hugged by the Commander on the Royal Fortune is a hug, right? But I'm the woman who's kissed the Commander. What makes you think you can compare to me on that basis?"

The lack of progress with the commander was a sore point for Jinlu, but no matter what, she couldn't afford to lose in terms of morale.

"You call that a kiss? That's not even a kiss! You sneaked through the wall in the middle of the night and kissed the Commander. That's not a kiss! To the Commander, it was like being bitten by a mosquito. You call that a kiss? Haha, don't make me laugh so hard my stomach hurts."

"You!" Jin Lu was almost speechless after being reprimanded by Royal Wealth. She grabbed an axe and pointed it at Royal Wealth, "I think Royal Wealth, you want to fight me!"

"Fight if you want, who's afraid of who!" Royal Wealth raised its legal code, refusing to back down.

Seeing that the two were really about to fight, Celeste, who had been lost in thought about the Commander, stepped in helplessly and stood between them: "Alright, alright, you two stop arguing. What's the point of fighting here? There are more than just the two of you ship girls in the port. And even if you win, the Commander won't give you any rings."

"Hmph! I'll let it slide for Celine's sake. Just you wait, the Commander will be done with his work eventually, and then you'll know who he likes. When the Commander and I walk down the aisle and exchange our first kisses and virginity, Golden Deer, you'll be grinding your teeth to dust!"

Seeing the Golden Deer's exasperated state, Royal Fortune, having already achieved a partial victory, decided to call it a day and ignored the Golden Deer behind them. Royal Fortune couldn't help but smile, humming a little tune, and then continued sailing towards the port area.

Commander, oh Commander~ My dearest Commander~

It's been a few days since we last met. I wonder if you can give me a surprise.

Chapter 147 Just like Da Bu Nao and Sister Shengli?

Fearful: "Pictures, pictures."

Formidable: "Update~ I was chatting with the Commander after lunch, and just as I thought, the Commander's body smells so good and soft!"

Blücher: "You're not allowed to hold the Commander and smell him, you're not allowed to?????????"

Bumblebee: "You're not allowed to hold the Commander and smell him, you're not allowed to?????????"

Gorizia: "You're not allowed to hold the Commander and smell him, you're not allowed to?????????"

Saratoga: "Tch, it's just luck. Obviously, now that the Commander is off work, he's completely open to everyone. So as long as you're bold enough to let the Commander know how you feel, it's easy to hug and cuddle with him."

Lützow: "You make it sound so easy, then you go and do it."

San Francisco: "You don't understand, Saratoga has already been called up."

San Francisco: "Image (with Little Gagga's head photoshopped onto Formidable's head)"

San Francisco: "Look, just like this, one wish fulfilled twice."

Saratoga: "That's enough, isn't it?? I'm saying, can you guys please stop photoshopping my head onto other ship girls' heads all the time? It's really rude."

San Francisco: "If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten who photoshopped their own head onto someone else's body in the first place.?"

Royal Ark: "Haha?? I remember that picture now, so Saratoga, what were you thinking when you did something like that?"

Saratoga: "I... I just saw you guys photoshopping pictures every day, and I got curious and tried to learn how. I accidentally sent it to the group chat when I was uploading it to my phone, is that really necessary?!"

Bumblebee: "Well, what can I do? Saratoga, the photoshop you did back then was just too ridiculous. Everyone else photoshops the Commander into their arms, but you just took someone else's picture and photoshopped your own head on top of it. It's hilarious!"

Regensburg: "It's really funny??????".

Saratoga: "Stop laughing! If you laugh again, I'll take my phone and go find the Commander and blow you all up!"

Fearless: "It doesn't matter, it won't affect you even if you show it to the commander."

Gorizia: "?"

Gorizia: "What do you mean? Does the Commander already know?!"

Ke Wei: "No...no."

(No, why should I let everyone know this? Even if the company really dies, it shouldn't be just me who dies.)

Formidable: "What I mean is, the commander doesn't really care about these things at all. Back then, there were ship girls who went crazy in front of the commander, and the commander didn't react at all."

Gorizia: "That's good. You scared me. I thought the Commander had actually been browsing the forums."

Fearless: "Alright, I'm not talking to you guys anymore. I'm going to have afternoon tea with the Commander later. Heh heh~ You can all just be envious."

In the living room, during the free time after dinner when the Commander, Little Fearless, and Little Illustrious were playing, Fearless showed off on the forum. When Illustrious returned, Fearless quickly put away his phone.

"Commander, why is the doorknob of Bu Nao's room missing? I was thinking of calling Bu Nao, but there was no response when I knocked on the door. Commander, you've spoiled Bu Nao a bit too much. You should have woken him up this morning."

With a strange expression, Guanghui returned to the living room from the corridor and slowly spoke to You Ran.

"Door handle?" You Ran was taken aback. "Well... I'm not quite sure either, but today is Saturday, so let her sleep if she wants to. It's fine."

He didn't pay attention to the doorknob, but he knew why Bu Nao wouldn't get up. However, he couldn't very well say that Bu Nao was in that state because of his own antics, so You Ran could only laugh it off.

Glorious looked worried: "Normally it's nothing, but today, Commander, you finally came all this way. I'm just afraid that by the time Bu Nao wakes up, you'll be gone. She'll be heartbroken. And Victory too, I wonder where he's gone right now."

"Alright, Glorious Sister~! Don't you know who the Commander is after this time? Victory Sister and Unyielding Sister are actively creating some alone time for you and the Commander."

My foolish Radiant Sister, Victory Sister and Unyielding Sister have already gotten their hands on them, and you're still worrying about this? Instead of worrying about this, you should be thinking about what we should do.

Kewei sighed inwardly. Although she could hug the commander whenever she wanted now, it seemed that was all she could do. She didn't know how many times she had hinted at it to the commander this morning, but he either didn't see it or not, and remained unmoved.

And not only did he not react at all, he just kept playing with Little Fearless.

Seriously, you idiot commander, how can a small formidable be as fun as a large formidable?

Looking at the little fearsome being held in the commander's arms, the fearsome looked on with envy, but suddenly felt a little jealous.

Alas, it truly reflects an old saying from the commander's side: "Success can be achieved through small means, and failure can also be caused by small means."

"Hmm... So the Commander didn't come because of me after all..."

Before Illustrious could speak after Formidable finished speaking, Little Formidable suddenly pouted and said something that sounded a bit aggrieved.

Seeing this, You Ran and Guang Hui smiled and patted Xiao Kewei's head. You Ran said with some affection, "Yes, yes, yes~ Of course it's because of Xiao Kewei~ Although I originally wanted to come and see, if it weren't for the message you sent me, I probably wouldn't have come so early."

After saying that, she didn't intend to add anything, but seeing that Xiao Guanghui looked like he wanted to say something but hesitated, You Ran quickly spoke up again: "That's all, but Xiao Kewei, if you have anything to say in the future, just tell your older sisters directly. Don't come here secretly anymore."

"The commander is right, stealing is not something a lady would do."
