Siren Commander, a mole in his own port

Is there some special mechanism at this convenience store? Why does a random ship girl appear every time I come here?

Owari smiled innocently. "I'm here to make a delivery. As agreed, I provide your convenience store with fresh fruits and vegetables every week. By the way, I want to express my gratitude to you..."

"It's just a small favor, and the person you should really thank is Binjiang. I didn't do anything big." Luo Yun asked casually, "How is the renovation of your shop going? When do you plan to open it?"

"Thanks to the help of the Jiujiu construction team, we've actually been open for two days." Owari was afraid that Luo Yun would misunderstand, so he quickly explained, "I came to see you the day before the opening, but unfortunately you weren't there, and I didn't have your contact information. I didn't mean to not inform you!"

Due to various coincidences, although Owari and Luo Yun had many interactions, both of them forgot to exchange each other's contact information. Luo Yun was purely careless, and Owari, as a ship girl, of course knew Luo Yun's account, so she subconsciously ignored the matter. When she needed to use it, she found that she had no suitable excuse, so she could only let it go.

"So fast?" Luo Yun was surprised. "Sorry, sorry, my question. I forgot to pay attention to this matter... How is the customer flow? Is it profitable?"

It's normal that the commander is too busy with his duties to show his support. Owari didn't care about such trivial matters. She nodded vigorously, her pretty face filled with unconcealed joy. "The fruit and vegetable shop is very popular. There are a constant stream of customers coming in and out every day. Several major clients have signed long-term supply contracts with me. I've never seen so much money in my life... Luo Yun, all this is thanks to you!"

Luo Yun shook his head and evaded the question, "You grew the fresh fruits and vegetables, and Sister Binjiang was in charge of the shop and decoration. I didn't contribute anything from the beginning to the end. If you continue to praise me like this, Sister Binjiang will cry."

"You don't understand. Actually... okay." Owari stopped insisting and turned to another matter. "Luo Yun, I have a gift for you. Please accept it!"

What Luo Yun said was true, but the most important thing in running a business is the source of customers. Owari had thought about starting her own business before, but her market research results showed that a fruit and vegetable store could not be opened at all. Most ship girls did not have the hobby of cooking for themselves. Until the commander arrived at the port, everything quietly changed drastically.

As the saying goes, if you want to capture a man's heart, you must first capture his stomach. In order to gain Luo Yun's recognition and become a truly good wife and mother, many ship girls began to learn cooking. Fresh ingredients are the cornerstone of making delicious dishes. As a result, Owari's fruit and vegetable stores ushered in unprecedented prosperity. It is no exaggeration to say that it was all attributed to Luo Yun.

"What gift? I can't accept anything too expensive." Luo Yun looked around. Apart from the box of fresh fruits and vegetables that Owari brought, there was nothing else special in the convenience store. He smiled and asked, "Is it this box of fruits and vegetables? You're too polite. To be honest, there's no way I can finish so much by myself."

Owari shook his head slightly, twisting his hands together unconsciously, and then said cautiously, "Well, actually... I bought this convenience store."

Chapter 188: Change job?

"Oh, you sold the convenience store... What?!" Luo Yun's eyes widened suddenly, and his voice unconsciously rose a few notes. "You bought this convenience store!? Where did you get so much money? No! What do you want this store for? Are you going to open a branch?"

Luo Yun initially thought he was hallucinating, but when he saw the shy smile on Owari's face, he realized she was not joking. This was the first time in his two lifetimes that he had seen someone give a convenience store as a gift.

"Money is not a problem. The deposits paid by those big customers are enough for me to buy this store. Although there is not much left...but if you lose money, you can earn it again." Owari showed a silly smile and looked at Luo Yun expectantly. "Luo Yun, with this store, you don't have to work anymore. Do you like this gift?"

Luo Yun's expression was a little stiff. "In fact, you might as well just give me the money. I can probably live off it for the rest of my life... No, this gift is too expensive. I can't accept it. Can I return it after I buy it?"

"Binjiang once told me that it's better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish. Living on idleness and waiting for death will only lead to exhaustion. Only by owning a real business can you have a secure life." Owari raised his hand and gestured, saying seriously, "Besides, if you want to withdraw, the entire process will cost you at least 30% of your capital, roughly that amount."

"Hiss~ So much? From what you said, I can only wait for it to pay off?" Luo Yun rubbed his temples and felt a headache. The loss back and forth was actually more than the money he earned from working hard for a whole year. Although the responsibility was not his and Owari's savings had little to do with him, Luo Yun really couldn't bear to see this honest girl suffer such a big loss.

Owari nodded. "I've inquired about it. Based on the current turnover, it will only take ten years to recoup the investment. After that, it will be pure profit. It's much better than putting it in the bank..."

Luo Yun frowned. "Ten years? Why does it take so long? I remember that a business like a convenience store usually pays off in two to three years."

Owari blinked in confusion. "Huh? But Akashi told me that this was already fast. She said this is a prime location. If we move to a more secluded place, it would take twenty years to recoup our investment."

"...Akashi? Okay, I think I understand what's going on." Luo Yun sighed. He heard the name he least wanted to hear. He didn't expect that after getting rid of Akashi, Owari would be tricked by her again.

In Luo Yun's opinion, Owari had undoubtedly made a deal that cost him nothing, but in fact this was probably the most profitable deal in the history of the port area. Before Owari, no one had ever realized that they could take over this store and get close to Luo Yun.

"Did I do something wrong?" Noticing that Luo Yun looked strange, Owari asked anxiously.

"You... well, how should I put it, Owari, have you ever considered a very realistic question?" Luo Yun chose his words carefully. "If you use your main capital to invest in convenience stores with extremely long payback periods, what will happen to your orders from major customers? If you can't deliver on time, the sky-high penalty for breach of contract won't be enough to pay even if we sold both of us together."

Owari tilted his head, a puzzled expression on his face. "How could that be? The port area provides considerable subsidies and technical support to farms, from seed subsidies to agricultural machinery technical support... The entire process costs almost nothing. All I need to put in is sweat and hard work. After deducting the 50% of sales revenue that Binjiang takes, the rest is basically pure profit."

"It's a no-cost business? If I had known this, I would have gone farming... No, this takes a lot of time, and only you can do it." Luo Yun muttered to himself, "If that's the case, there won't be any big problems, but this deal is still not worth it... Wait, so I'm working for you now?"

"Is that so?" Owari was startled at first, then his eyes slowly lit up, a smile unconsciously appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his voice became a little lighter. "Oh, right, you haven't accepted the gift yet, and I'm still the nominal store manager. Hehehe, I'm actually the boss lady of Luo Yun. It feels so strange."

My boss lady? Isn't that a bit of a problem?

Luo Yun pinched his brows and insisted, "No, I can't accept this gift no matter what. Just think of it as a ten-year deposit. Tsk, I feel like I need to change jobs. Otherwise, what's the difference between me and being supported by you?"

The biggest advantage of unmanned convenience stores is that they sell goods 24 hours a day. It doesn't matter whether Luo Yun is there or not. He just intercepts part of the profits. If the store manager is Akashi, Luo Yun will not feel guilty even if he abuses his power for personal gain. But if it is the honest and simple Owari who is the store manager, it is a different story.

"Being supported by me...? That sounds good, it seems pretty good, hehe..." Owari patted his cheeks lightly to prevent himself from showing a crazy smile, and then he remembered something, "Ah, speaking of work, Luo Yun, since I have to run back and forth between the store and the farm, I'm really too busy in the store... Well, if you don't mind, can you help me look after the store? As for the salary and benefits, we can discuss it!"

It was understandable that he had not realized that this matter concerned the commander's work before, but now Luo Yun had pointed out the interests involved to his wife. If he did not seize this opportunity, Owari would be ashamed of his instinct as a businessman.

If she could recruit the Commander as an employee in her store, even if it was just to be his mascot, she would never have to worry about customers. Moreover, she could spend every day with the Commander. It was a profitable business no matter how she looked at it. She would not be too much of a stretch even if she bet her entire fortune on it.

"Well... although I'm both working for you, the latter isn't exactly a gigolo." Luo Yun rubbed his chin thoughtfully. "I appreciate your kindness, but you also know I have too many chores to do here, so it's hard for me to work in a fixed place. The convenience store job is quite suitable for me. At worst, I can change to another one..."

"I don't need you to be there all the time!" Owari raised his voice eagerly, then realized he was too excited. He quickly slowed down his tone, clasped his hands together, and looked at me with pleading, "Just one or two days a week will be enough. No! Half a day is enough. Except during the busy farming season, I don't need to go to the farm frequently. Luo Yun, please, give me a chance to repay you!"

I have already rejected Owari's kindness once before. It would be too unkind to refuse again. Besides, I also need a stable job that is not too blood-sucking. Instead of working for those bosses with unknown backgrounds, I might as well choose Owari. At least this girl is an honest person, and her appearance is also to my liking.

"...Okay, it's settled. When will you report in, Owari Manager?"

"Now! Right now!"

Chapter 189: What Happened in the Fruit and Vegetable Store

Later in the evening, Commercial Street.

Binjiang is wealthy and her assets are no less than any other ship girl. Therefore, with her strong support, the fruit and vegetable store easily took over the prime location in the commercial street. As soon as Luo Yun stepped into the commercial street, his eyes were attracted by the "Owari Fruit and Vegetable Store" on the corner.

To be honest, Luo Yun couldn't help but feel a little bit out of place when he saw a fruit and vegetable store suddenly appearing among so many fashionable shops full of feminine atmosphere.

However, what made him feel even more uncomfortable was that this fruit and vegetable store was actually more prosperous than the surrounding shops. Although it was not crowded, there were still a constant stream of customers, making it particularly eye-catching.

"Are there really so many customers?" Luo Yun exclaimed in surprise, but soon he noticed something unusual, "Huh? Why do I only see people going in but not coming out?"

"Huh? That shouldn't be the case. I clearly... Wahhhh!" Owari suddenly let out a sharp explosion and rushed towards his shop with his head in his hands. "I forgot to open the self-checkout system! Sorry, sorry, I kept you waiting. There was an accident just now..."

"Although it sounds abstract, it does fit your usual personality." Luo Yun muttered to himself with a subtle expression, "Even so, are there still a bunch of customers willing to wait for you to come back? No matter how fresh your produce is... why does it feel like it's been mixed with ice?"

Luo Yun's feeling was correct. No matter how much people liked fresh ingredients, they would not waste a lot of time queuing here to buy them. The port area cafeteria was not a vegetarian, and the quality of the ingredients was not much worse than Owari. The reason was still related to Luo Yun.

Since Luo Yun's whereabouts were almost transparent, as soon as he decided to go to the fruit and vegetable store with Owari, many ship girls immediately got wind of it. It was almost dinner time at that time, and if they happened to meet the commander in the fruit and vegetable store, they might inadvertently leave him with the impression that she was virtuous, or at least get to meet the commander.

Not to mention Luo Yun, even Owari didn't realize the twists and turns here. She thought she had forgotten to turn on the self-service checkout system, but in fact some ship girls had taken the initiative to turn it off, waiting for Luo Yun and Owari to fall into the trap.

"I'm so sorry to trouble you!" Owari stood in front of the cashier counter, skillfully helping the customer peel and weigh the food with her hands, while apologizing continuously. This accident happened not long after the business opened. Although there were reasons for it and the impact was not big, it was still due to her carelessness.

"No, I just got here too, um..." A plump older sister wearing a red hat and with long silver-white hair responded with a chuckle.

She wore a one-shoulder sweater with a black collar around her neck, a red jacket, black high heels and a black hip skirt, which outlined her curvaceous figure and exuded a gentle and mature temperament.

Owari obviously recognized the visitor. She smiled innocently and said, "Madam Maid, are you planning to show off your skills in front of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth? How about trying papaya? It's very good for your health~"

"I'm on vacation now, so I'm not the head maid. You can just call me Belfast." Belfast shook her head slightly. "Your Majesty doesn't like these things. I just wanted to buy some to practice. I've been busy with work lately, and my cooking skills have been a bit slack."

As the captain of the Royal Maids, Belfast likes to take care of things and strives to do everything to the best of her ability. Therefore, she has strict plans and excellent abilities, and basically everything can be completed in an orderly manner.

However, although she is a maid, Belfast is not very humble and has a strong self-esteem. Even if the other party is Queen Elizabeth, she will definitely fight back firmly if provoked.

Owari suddenly realized, "Oh, so that's how it is. I thought... um, everything has been weighed. Please scan the code here to pay."

Belfast caught a glimpse of Luo Yun entering the store and said calmly, "Put it there for now. I'll go buy a few more things and pay for them together later."

"No problem. Miss Befa, what else would you like? These are all fresh seasonal ingredients. The ones near the wall are greenhouse vegetables, and... Oh, right! I strongly recommend you try the kudzu root. It just came down a while ago..."

Speaking of fruits and vegetables, Owari immediately burst into great enthusiasm and introduced several kinds of vegetables to Belfast in one breath. Belfast sighed softly and said helplessly: "Miss Owari, leave it alone. I will come to you if I need it."

"Huh? Oh, oh..." Owari was slightly taken aback, then he followed Belfast's gaze and seemed to realize something. His enthusiasm instantly disappeared, and he smiled awkwardly, "Then, then I won't bother you. There are still many customers waiting for me to pay... right?"

As soon as Owari turned around, he found that the long queue had already dispersed, and the ship girls were all picking and choosing in the store, and many girls took the initiative to come up to Luo Yun and ask questions.

However, Luo Yun was a lazy man in his previous life. If he was asked about some common vegetables, he would know a thing or two, but Owari liked to grow some strange seasonal vegetables with special effects. Luo Yun had never even heard of them, let alone introduce them to others.

"Well, you've got the wrong person. I'm not a clerk in this store... No, no, no, I'm not here to buy groceries... Are you coveting the boss lady's beauty? What are you thinking? I'm just a temporary worker at best. I haven't started my official job yet... Don't get me wrong, I'm only in charge of the cashier."

After rejecting another ship girl who came up to him, Luo Yun wiped the non-existent sweat off his face, and his expression became visibly tired.

Although he often encountered such customers in convenience stores, there were more of them today. Moreover, they were just like ordinary housewives, all of them had burning gossip spirits, and they almost asked about his embarrassing childhood stories.

"Luo Yun, is that you?"

Suddenly, a soft female voice came from behind. Luo Yun turned around and said in surprise: "Sister York City, why are you here too?"

The gentle and graceful sister, well, now you can also call her a wife, Yorktown smiled helplessly. "My sister, Qiqi, is a picky eater. I heard that Miss Owari's shop has rare vegetables, so I thought I'd buy some to help her improve her picky eating habits."

"Enterprise... that stern-faced white-haired girl? She looked like a soldier to me, and I thought she was the type of... well, I'm not saying anything bad about her."

Yorktown sighed and complained, "You're absolutely right. I look too much like a soldier, even carrying a can of military food every day... Oh, Luo Yun, what do you think I should do?"

Chapter 190: York City's Heartache

Whether it was love at first sight or lust at first sight, when Luo Yun first saw Yorktown, he decided that this girl was different from most ship girls and would definitely become a truly virtuous wife in the future. Luo Yun just happened to like this type of girl the most.

At first, Luo Yun didn't have much thought about Yorktown, but as more and more ship girls had relationships with him, his ambition gradually expanded. When he heard the observer recommend that he take down those so-called ship girl leaders, the first thing Luo Yun thought of was Yorktown.

However, before Luo Yun could take action, Frederick brought him unexpected good news. After that, things developed more smoothly than he had imagined. Luo Yun had the opportunity to experience the enthusiastic and proactive side of York City with almost no effort.

Yorktown was worthy of being the virtuous wife he recognized. Even when she was drunk, she still retained her unique reserve and gentleness. However, Luo Yun did not want to leave any regrets in the hard-earned intimate moment, so he secretly exerted some strength and completely embraced Mrs. Yorktown in his arms, leaving his unique mark deep in her heart.

Although York City repeatedly emphasized that the experience that night was just an accident and hoped that both of them could put it behind them, Luo Yun was the first and only man in York City's life, so how could she easily forget him?

No matter how York City pretended to be calm and tried to hide her true thoughts, that unique emotion would always inadvertently reveal itself in her behavior.

Just as Luo Yun quietly approached York City's delicate body, she seemed unaware of this, still holding her cheek, and complained to Luo Yun in a slightly distressed manner about her two troublesome sisters:

"Even though Bumblebee has a playful personality and eats whatever he can get, he's never picky about what he eats. Enterprise, on the other hand, prioritizes efficiency above all else. He constantly insists that any food that provides enough energy is good enough. The cans in his room are practically piled high..."

Luo Yun comforted her, "It's true that eating canned food all day isn't a good thing, but as far as I know, with your physical fitness, canned food shouldn't affect your health, right?"

Yorktown smiled wryly and shook her head slightly, saying, "That's why I can't bring myself to force Enterprise to change her picky eating habits. Even eating the canned food is a small matter for us, let alone the food inside. But... eating is a lifestyle. How can we be perfunctory about it? We will suffer in the future."

Yorktown knew that as the most gentle wife of White Eagle, she would never have trouble finding a husband, so she did not spend too much energy on dressing herself up. Instead, after experiencing love between a man and a woman, she devoted more of her attention to her two younger sisters.

As a veteran of the port area, Enterprise was once the undisputed strongest ship girl. Although her strength cannot be underestimated today, she is not as important as before. Moreover, the war between the Sirens and the ship girls is about to end, and it is difficult for her to gain the favor of the commander by relying on military merits.

As a girl, Qiji's performance is quite poor. Her personality is too rigid and serious. She lacks the gentleness and agility that a girl should have. She knows nothing about housework. It is good enough that Luo Yun does not have to spend extra time taking care of her, let alone becoming a qualified marriage partner.

Therefore, in Yorktown's eyes, Enterprise has no competitiveness compared to other ship girls, and is even inferior to her lively and cheerful sister Bumblebee. As her sister, Yorktown sees it and feels helpless and anxious. She knows that if she doesn't make changes, the future will probably become more and more difficult.

"Sister York, there's no need to be so anxious. I met your two sisters last time. They seemed a little reckless, but they weren't unreasonable either. They probably have their own considerations. Maybe they just need a little time."

Luo Yun slowly extended his hand, gently placing his palm against the back of Yorktown's jade-white hand. He then said in a gentle voice, "Besides, the ship girls are not ordinary people. Sister Yorktown has the ability to keep them under your protection forever. If it's not necessary, why force them to endure hardships? Isn't it better to let them be happy?"

"Luo Yun, you don't understand. I'm doing this for their own good. If I don't change, sooner or later, they'll suffer greatly... Ah! Luo Yun, w-what are you doing!?" York City exclaimed, withdrawing her hand as if she had been electrocuted. Her cheeks flushed crimson, her eyes dodged in panic, and her voice was a little shy. "Please, please respect yourself. I clearly said before... this won't happen again."

No explicit refusal means consent. Luo Yun kept this principle in mind and took the initiative to step forward, forcing York City into a corner, staring at her cheek with burning eyes: "Sister York City, I know what you are worried about. I can't forget the experience of that night no matter what. After all, Sister York City was so enthusiastic and proactive, and..."

"Okay, okay, stop talking!" York City reached out her hand in a panic and covered Luo Yun's mouth, but then realized that this action was too ambiguous and quickly retracted her hand. She tried to put on a stern face and pretend to be angry, but her slightly flushed cheeks made her look like she was just acting coquettishly. "If you do this again, sister will be angry."

Seeing the elder sister's cute expression, Luo Yun couldn't help but chuckle: "Okay, okay, I won't say anything. But even if there are some things that I don't say out loud, Sister York City should know about them. I will find a way to help you solve your worries, and I hope Sister York City can let go of her worries and open her heart to me."

To be honest, Luo Yun was really afraid that York City would be so cruel as to attribute what happened that night to an accident, but it was obvious that he was not the only one who could not forget it. York City was just suppressing the throbbing in her heart for the sake of her sister. If Luo Yun had been tougher, she might not even be able to put up a decent resistance and would have obeyed Luo Yun's words.

York City's eyes lit up and he said, "You mean... can you help my sister deal with the bad habit of being picky about food at the company?"

"Well, I can't guarantee it, but I don't think it's a big problem, provided that Sister York City can trust me. Without your cooperation, no matter how ingenious my plan is, it will be nothing but a castle in the air."

Although he was unsure, Luo Yun agreed without hesitation. The ship girls never asked for too much, and a good attitude could solve 99% of the problems. After all, being picky about the company would not cause any adverse consequences. If you look into it, this is just a concern for Yorktown.

"Of course, as long as it can help the company, I'm willing to do anything for you..." Yorktown paused, lowered her head shyly, and murmured, "Yes, anything."

Chapter 191: Unexpected Gains

After confirming that Luo Yun had started the side quest called "Attack the Enterprise", Yorktown did not stay for too long. She found an excuse, checked out and left the fruit and vegetable store. Although she also wanted to stay with the commander for a while longer, she knew that too much is as bad as too little, so she chose to leave at the right time.

While Luo Yun was testing whether Yorktown had feelings for him, Yorktown was also testing whether she was attractive to Luo Yun. She had already given her precious first experience without reservation. If the commander lost interest in her, let alone helping her sister, she would probably have no chance of even achieving her own happiness.

This was undoubtedly a big gamble for Yorktown. Fortunately, the commander's interest in her was obvious, enough for Yorktown to maintain a distant attitude and properly whet Luo Yun's appetite so that he would take the initiative to attack the sisters.

Yorktown is not unaware of the great risks of doing so. The port area is not short of ship girls who take the initiative to show goodwill to the commander. If they are not careful, the sisters will become invisible and will never catch the commander's attention again.

But with Enterprise's rigid and serious personality, it would be harder than climbing to the sky to get her to actively pursue the Commander. Yorktown would rather place her hopes on the Commander's desire to conquer. This is the only way she can think of to make Enterprise a marriage ship.

What Yorktown has to do next is to seduce Luo Yun from time to time, but not let him really succeed, hoping that the commander, who has tasted the sweetness, will eventually not be able to resist the double temptation of the gentle wife and the sisters, and catch them all in one fell swoop.

"Enterprise...?" Looking at Mrs. Yorktown's soft and plump back, Luo Yun couldn't help but fall into deep thought. He was not a fool. Yorktown's hint was obvious enough. They were a pair of sisters who shared happiness and hardship together. They were worthy of being a ship girl. They were never vague when it came to sharing men.

Luo Yun had only met the enterprise once, and all his knowledge of her came from Yorktown's description. It sounded like that girl was a straight woman who knew nothing about matters between men and women. The difficulty of conquering her by himself should be... unexpectedly easy?

After all, Luo Yun has always used every possible means to conquer the ship girls. He doesn't care about the emotional intelligence of the enterprise. As long as she is a girl, there is no way she can escape from his clutches. He uses hypnosis, mind reading, drugging, getting her drunk... He uses all kinds of tricks in turn, and he is not afraid that the enterprise will not surrender.

...No, when did he become such a devilish man? It was clearly a commission given to him by an older sister who had a crush on him. His original intention was to hope that her sister would be happy, not let her experience the joy of being a female and then fall into depravity.

Should he pursue Enterprise in the normal way? The problem is that he has never pursued a girl before. His experience in pursuing shipgirls is all based on the fact that they have a high degree of favorability towards him. He is a straight-laced woman from the beginning. Isn't it too difficult?

“Ahhh, it was clearly calculated by the computer, why did it get the bill wrong again!!” Owari held his head in his hands and cried out in grief, “Someone please save me… Luo Yun! You used to work as a cashier, so you can definitely help me!”

Luo Yun put away his chaotic thoughts and looked up at Owari, only to see a silver-haired beauty standing quietly in front of the counter, her expression neither happy nor sad, while Owari was standing beside her, looking at her apologetically.

"Let me see what's going on." As his boss's only employee, Luo Yun naturally couldn't stand idly by while she was in trouble. He quickly walked to the counter, took a look at the computer screen, and smiled confidently, "This system is exactly the same as the one at the convenience store. Leave the checkout to me. Owari, you can go and take care of other things."

Owari looked at Luo Yun with tears in his eyes and said gratefully: "Wow, Luo Yun, thank goodness you are here, otherwise I really don't know what to do."

"It's my job, no need to be so polite." Luo Yun looked at Belfast, "Madam, please wait a moment, let me check again... Hmm? Have we met somewhere before?"

Belfast gave Owari a subtle glance, then raised the corner of his mouth, revealing an elegant smile. "Yes, on the day you arrived at the port, I accompanied Her Majesty the Queen to greet the candidates at the port."

Luo Yun recalled carefully for a long time, and asked uncertainly: "Your Majesty... Are you saying that you were one of the maids at that time?"

Belfast performed a standard skirt-lifting salute, then smiled faintly and said reservedly: "Exalted, please allow me to introduce myself. I am Belfast, the second ship of the Edinburgh class, the largest cruiser of the Royal Navy, and therefore I serve as the head maid."
