Transmigrated into Azur Lane

The flight attendant who had been cursing Lin Dong as a scumbag saw Spence's miserable state and cheered inwardly. She knew that she would definitely be punished for these little girls' blunder. Putting aside whether her bonus would be deducted, she would definitely have to clean the cabin for a month.

After being disturbed by the little girls, the plane had almost entered Sichuan Province. Not long after everyone returned to their seats, the plane landed at Tianfu Airport.

After disembarking, Lin, who had come with Lin Dong and his group, hurriedly went through a special passage to the parking lot to retrieve their car, while Lin Dong and his group leisurely waited for Lin's instructions inside the airport.

News of Lin Dong's arrival in Sichuan Province had already been leaked online by airport staff, and netizens in Sichuan naturally wouldn't miss the opportunity to catch a glimpse of the ship girls. The airport was immediately surrounded by layers of people. This was also related to the fact that Lin Dong hadn't deliberately concealed his itinerary; in his view, he wasn't a celebrity, and on the contrary, he was often criticized online, so he didn't think about it that way.

However, Lin Dong completely forgot that inland cities were the main areas that the Donghuang government was heavily promoting. At this point, most of the infamy he had previously carried had been cleared up. For example, the Donghuang government even offered a rare explanation for the title of "Donghuang's Number One Scumbag," stating that ship girls are a polygamous race. This silenced those who had been causing trouble, and Lin Dong's undefeated record pushed his reputation to its peak.

Lin Dong was only slightly puzzled by the somewhat frightening number of onlookers at the airport, which was also related to his thick skin. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to eat and play as if nothing was wrong under the gaze of passersby during his previous trip. This also shows just how thick-skinned he was.

Under the regulation of the law, the onlookers were quite restrained. They mainly just wanted to feast their eyes on what the legendary ship girls actually looked like and broaden their horizons. As for taking photos recklessly or harassing the ship girls, they didn't dare to do so. Thanks to the government's long-term propaganda, they also knew how serious the consequences would be. The guy who secretly filmed Fletcher's live stream in Fuzhou and wanted to become famous did indeed become famous for a while, but after netizens had had their fill of seeing the ship girls, he was arrested by the police and reportedly received a heavy sentence.

"Hey corrupt official, when are we leaving?"

Ruyue felt a chill run down her spine from looking at the dense crowd. Timidly, she tugged at the commander's sleeve and asked, her pitiful appearance drawing even more attention from the onlookers.

"We can leave after our guide, Lin, has arranged our luggage and car. Be good."

After coaxing Ruyue, Lin Dong picked her up and gave her a big kiss on the cheek, which made the hearts of the surrounding loli lovers almost break, and they were extremely envious.

"Commander, I want a hug too!"

Mutsuki, who was biting on a lollipop, raised her hands high and shouted. She was usually not clingy at all, but she would always get jealous when she saw her younger sister being pampered by the Commander.

Just as Lin Dong picked up Mu Yue, a young man in a suit and tie approached him respectfully.

"General Lin, welcome to Tianfu. Secretary Wu asked me to apologize for not being able to pick you up in person. Please feel free to call this number if you encounter any problems here."

After the young man finished speaking, he handed over a business card with both hands.

Lin Dong took the business card and glanced at it before he understood. In Donghuang, the administrative government and the military were two completely different systems. This top official from Sichuan Province had done this to avoid suspicion but was also afraid that Lin Dong would feel slighted. After all, most of the current high-ranking officials in Donghuang knew that the Security Bureau was now in a semi-independent state. In addition, with the recent propaganda campaign, people in every system didn't mind showing goodwill to this rising major general and adding icing on the cake.

"Please thank Secretary Wu for me. Please pass on a message to him that you have received my thanks."

Lin Dong naturally reciprocated the other party's politeness.

With the young man gone, Guide Lin finally finished arranging things, and then everyone headed towards the underground parking lot.

...

Inside the hotel room.

Lin Dong had just put down his luggage when there was a knock on the door.

I did not call room service.

Lin Dong opened the door and asked the waiter outside with a puzzled look.

"Hello, Mr. Lin!"

After the waiter finished speaking, he opened his palm to reveal a cross badge.

……

Happy New Year to all commanders! May the new year bring you boundless good luck, and may you effortlessly complete every event.

Chapter 154 The Eighteenth Journey to the Eastern Empire

Inside the hotel room.

Lin Dong asked the man dressed as a waiter sitting on the opposite sofa with some doubt.

"Are you a Predator?"

"Yes, just an Asian, Mr. Lin, there's no need to be surprised."

The man, who called himself Ironblood, explained with a light laugh.

"Asian, huh...?"

Lin Dong murmured thoughtfully. As someone who was ignorant about history and World War II, Lin Dong still knew about the infamous Nazis. Shortly after the end of World War II, the world was attacked by the Sirens, leaving various countries preoccupied with their own problems. Lin Dong had been fantasizing about whether the current Ironblood was still a Nazi remnant who had escaped trial. However, seeing that this Asian man held a high position in the Ironblood organization, Lin Dong guessed that the Ironblood was no longer under Nazi control.

What brings you here?

After a haphazard analysis, Lin Dong asked again.

"The main purpose of this trip is to invite Mr. Lin to join our Tiexue team. We guarantee that the compensation and benefits will be more generous than those offered by Donghuang."

The man got straight to the point, saying that approaching Lin Dong this time was quite risky, and with time running out, he didn't dare to delay too much.

"Let me think about it. Leave me your contact information."

Lin Dong naturally couldn't give up the hard-won foothold in Donghuang and then drag his family to Tiexue, but Lin Dong, who always liked to leave himself a way out, didn't completely rule out the possibility of future cooperation.

"Okay, then I won't bother you any longer, Mr. Lin. I hope you will consider this carefully."

The man had no intention of continuing to persuade him; he hadn't come with high hopes, only wishing to plant a seed in Lin Dong's heart and wait for it to sprout. After speaking, he left a business card, then pushed his cart out of the room.

'knock knock'

Before the waiter had left, Lin Dong's door was knocked on again.

“Zeppelin, come in and sit for a while.”

Upon opening the door and discovering who it was, Lin Dong greeted the woman in black stockings with enthusiasm.

Zeppelin nodded slightly and walked into the commander's room in her high heels.

"Zeppelin, are you hurt in your hand?"

Lin Dong noticed the blood-stained towel that Qi Bolin was using to wipe his hands and asked nervously.

"I encountered a bloodthirsty bug on the road and killed it without thinking."

Zeppelin replied casually, then tossed the towel into the trash can.

"..."

After silently mourning for the Ironblood guy for three seconds, Lin Dong started making tea for Zeppelin. Having read the official character description, he knew that while Zeppelin hated the world, she hated the Ironblood organization that created her even more. Anyway, he had already obtained the Ironblood's contact information, so whether that unlucky guy lived or died was actually none of Lin Dong's business.

"Come, have some tea."

"Commander, have you reached any agreement with Sangvis Ferri?"

Zeppelin accepted the tea offered by the commander and asked coldly.

"No, I just left my contact information."

Lin Dong took out the business card left by the man earlier, waved it in his hand, and then said something flirtatious.

"How could I dare to cooperate with Ironblood without the consent of our Zeppelin?"

The mature woman in black stockings rarely smiled; in her great pleasure, she pulled the commander standing to the side to sit on her lap.

"It seems like it's backwards, isn't it?"

Lin Dong, who was being held by Qi Bolin, protested.

Zeppelin pulled the protesting commander into his arms and silenced him.

...

Inside a teahouse in Kuanzhai Alley, Tianfu.

"Commander, let's go, I'm so bored."

Z19, resting his chin on his hands, urged on listlessly.

"Here, take the money and go have some fun. The commander is too old to play anymore."

Lin Dong was sleeping on Maya's lap, enjoying Atago's massage service. After lazily finishing speaking, he used his toes to hold his wallet and placed it on the table in front of Z19. Before leaving, he pinched Z19's cheek with his toes.

Z19 first disgustedly wiped the spot on her face where the Commander had touched her with his toe, and then grabbed her wallet and ran out of the teahouse with her sisters.

Kuanzhai Alley is the only remaining ancient street from the previous dynasty in Chengdu. It consists of three parallel old-style streets: Kuan Alley, Zhai Alley, and Jing Alley. The blue brick walls, courtyards, tall gate towers, and flower-patterned wainscoting of various ancient buildings make visitors feel very comfortable.

"Atago, do you know how to clean your ears?"

Lin Dong suddenly remembered that before his guide Lin left, he mentioned a special profession here called "ear cleaner," which is a profession that specializes in cleaning tourists' ears. Seeing the guests at the next tea table having their ears cleaned by an ear cleaner and looking like they were having an orgasm, Lin Dong couldn't help but feel a little itchy.

"I...I'll do it."

Before Atago could reply, Maya, who had always wanted to fulfill her duties as a wife, volunteered.

"Ahem... Well, I'm suddenly feeling a bit sleepy, I'm going to take a nap."

Fearing he would become disabled, Lin Dong quickly closed his eyes and pretended to be dead.

"Humph!"

Feeling looked down upon, Maya punched the commander sleeping on her lap in the chest.

"Cough cough cough..."

Chapter 155 Journey to the Eastern Empire, Part Nineteen

Sichuan Panda Base.

'Smack smack smack'

An adult giant panda was happily eating tender bamboo shoots with its bottom on the ground, while it kept a watchful eye on the humans sitting directly opposite it.

Santiago frowned in confusion, picked up a bamboo stalk from the ground, and was about to put it in his mouth.

"Roar!!"

This action immediately displeased the giant panda, who stopped eating and roared at Jin Ke La.

"Shut up, the commander said that you can't grow tall if you eat alone."

After saying that, Santiago slapped the panda on the head, and then imitated it by tearing off the outer skin of the bamboo and biting into the tender part of the bamboo.

"Pah! You can actually enjoy eating this kind of thing? You're such an idiot."

After casually tossing away the bamboo, Santiago couldn't help but make a sarcastic remark to the trembling panda before humming a little tune and leaving.

...

"Commander, how about we get one?"

Ford opened her big, bright eyes and said to the commander in a coquettish tone. At this moment, a small panda keychain was hanging on her leg. The immature panda seemed to have taken a liking to Ford and kept biting at her thigh.

"We can't afford to raise them."
