As a commander, I will never meet a heavy female ship girl

"Gravel?" Burgundy didn't understand at first, but soon she caught up with Lorraine's train of thought.

"It's just...ah!" Lorraine was thrown to the ground by Burgundy on the soft sand.

"So the commander has taken a fancy to me so early..." Burgundy stroked Lorraine's lips with his fingers.

Hmm, it’s really soft. I really want to kiss it directly, but unfortunately, according to the plan, I have to be patient~.

"Really, be careful." Lorraine hugged Burgundy.

"Oh, you wouldn't dare not catch me anyway~" Burgundy narrowed his eyes slightly and whispered in Lorraine's ear.

The warm breath is really irresistible.

But Miss Burgundy gently broke free from Lorraine's arms and said, "I am a knight of the Holy See. I cannot behave like this."

She took two steps back, tilted her head slightly to look at Lorraine, and put her hands behind her back.

There was still a smile on her face.

"You, you..." Lorraine shook his head, stood up and shook his coat.

The white coat embroidered with golden patterns faintly reflected the moonlight.

Just like the person in front of him, he illuminated the world in Burgundy's eyes.

"Fortunately, no sand got in." Lorraine curled her lips.

"I'm sorry." Burgundy stuck out his tongue and took Lorraine's hand again.

Miss Knight is still wearing a black dress today, just like when we first met.

“If life can only be met for the first time, all the good times will be seen again.”

Fortunately, the anger in my heart was not completely extinguished that winter.

"Bang! Bang!" Fireworks exploded in the sky above the port area.

This is an annual tradition.

"Speaking of setting off fireworks this year, have you reported it?" Lorraine watched the fireworks explode.

"No, but who cares?" Burgundy leaned on Lorraine.

"That's right. Anyway, it's the Governor who has to bear the pressure." Lorraine thought about it and didn't care.

Anyway, Azur Lane doesn't have the courage to attack its own port area.

The two of them just watched like that until the fireworks with the words "Merry Christmas" completely dissipated in the air, then they turned around.

At this point, everyone should be singing Merry Christmas.

But Lorraine was not in a hurry, as she had agreed to stay with Burgundy all night.

"Hey." Burgundy turned around, bringing with him a scent of iris.

She leaned forward. "Now, is it time to say 'Merry Christmas'?"

"uh-huh."

"Merry Christmas, then, Burgundy."

Miss Knight smiled even more brightly, took a step forward and put her arms around Lorraine's neck.

Even though she has been wearing the ring for almost a year, Burgundy still feels a little shy like a girl every time she does this.

"Well, Merry Christmas, Mr. Lorraine."

She winked and pulled Lorraine closer to her.

Lorraine took the opportunity to put his arms around her waist.

The two of them looked at each other ambiguously.

Burgundy stretched out a finger and pressed it to Lorraine's lips.

"Don't be anxious, Commander, have you forgotten something?"

She narrowed her eyes, as if to give the person in front of her some time to react.

"Of course." After being together for so long, how could Lorraine not understand what the other party meant?

Besides, Miss Knight’s thoughts are really easy to guess.

He released Burgundy, who pushed forward.

"So, would you like to dance with me, my lady knight?"

Lorraine straightened his coat and extended a hand like a gentleman.

"It's my honor, my lord." Burgundy stretched out his lace-gloved hand and placed it in Lorraine's palm.

The fireworks faded and everything was quiet.

Only the waves, moonlight and stars are my companions.

Lorraine hummed a tune softly and held hands with Burgundy ten fingers.

One black and one white, dancing together under the moon.

In the eyes of the two, there was only each other.

The girl, who had nothing, broke free from her restraints and, under the guidance of the Lord, met her destined man.

So, the two of them set out on a journey together.

After going through all sorts of things, they gradually understood——

"Where you are is where I belong."

Lorraine pulled gently, and Burgundy fell into his arms and hugged his neck.

Finally, a kiss fell.

Chapter 144 Prelude: Storm is Coming

Time: 4:33 p.m., November 17

sunny

People: Lorraine, Burgundy, Republic

Mission: Help Burgundy complete the hull deployment

It’s still the familiar tram, and it’s still the familiar three people.

"The hull is deployed..." Burgundy glanced at Lorraine worriedly, "Commander, are you really okay?"

"Don't worry, it's all mental energy that's being consumed. In other words, it's all about the brain." Lorraine smiled and shook his head.

"Miss Kitchen Goddess's medical examination showed no problems, so what could possibly happen?"

"Having said that, I still suggest that you be cautious, sir." Republic glanced at Lorraine.

"After all, the commander's health is worse than before."

"Okay, okay." Lorraine said with a smile, "I know what I'm doing."

"Ding, next stop is the gymnasium. Students who need to get off, please get ready. Next stop is dock 1."

The three of them said no more. Lorraine looked out the window and adjusted his state.

Deploying the hull is not an easy task, and not all ship girls can succeed in one go.

They need to face their past and see what they truly fear and hate deep down.

Until they resonated with the cold steel behemoths in history and pulled them back into reality from the long-lost history.

What the commander has to do in this process is to face all of this together with his ship girls and serve as their stable anchor.

Fortunately, the attempt to unfold the hull can be repeated.

Although every time you fail, the hope of success decreases.

After all, not everyone can endure that kind of heart-wrenching pain.

Although Burgundy is a post-war design, if you look back, you won't encounter the great fear of sinking in battle.

But people's expectations may be even heavier.

The tram lurched to a stop and the doors opened.

Lorraine turned his head as if he had caught a glimpse of an acquaintance.

It is Dongfang Ming and Massachusetts.

"Good afternoon, Luo Bao."

After Bai Jiu left, everyone seemed to realize something - they felt a sense of urgency and were all very busy.

"Good afternoon, Ming-chan," Lorraine greeted. "It feels like I haven't seen you guys much lately except in class."

"You guys aren't usually this busy."

Dongfang Ming didn't expect Lorraine to talk about this kind of thing right away.

After a slight pause, she smiled bitterly and said, "Fang Xiang is right for once. You really don't have any self-awareness at all..."

Lorraine didn't understand what she said for a moment.

"Everyone is chasing you. You may not even realize how dazzling you are, Tianhai Rising Star."

"Ah this..." Lorraine could only scratch his head.

"I'm going to replace Massachusetts's secondary guns. What about you?"

"Burgundy will unfold its hull today." Lorraine said honestly.

Dongfang Ming was a little surprised.

"So soon? I guess you knew about the changes to the final exam?"

"Huh?" Lorraine was completely confused. "What the hell?"

"Sure enough, I expected too much from you..." Dongfang Ming was speechless.

"I almost forgot that you and Burgundy hardly ever read the news. It's all up to the Republic to sort out the notifications."

This sound made all the students in the car look over.

Miss Ming’s information is absolutely firsthand.

She shook her head and began to explain.

Simply put, Tianhai has reached a cooperation with Azur Lane Donghuang Headquarters this year, and a number of maritime tasks will be assigned to the students.

The difficulty and rating of the tasks completed by the students will serve as their final grades.

"Ah, this..." Luo Lin digested the information for a moment, "Principal Zhenhai is really going big this time..."

"The principal must have her own plans for doing this." Dongfang Ming could only shrug.

In fact, it is not difficult to understand that the pressure on major war zones has been increasing in the past two years.

Lorraine sighed.

When he went to see Instructor Wichita two days ago, he heard the instructors arguing—

"Cooperating with the Maritime Administration...this is going to send these kids to the battlefield early." Wichita's tone sounded very bad.

"The situation is urgent now. Even if seven or eight of us don't want to, we must be prepared to send these children to the battlefield in advance."

This is what Germany said.

"You're committing a crime!" Instructor Mogami shouted. "This is irresponsible to the children. They haven't experienced anything so far..."

"That's enough!" Germany interrupted Mogami rudely.

“They do.”

Germany said coldly.

"When they were able to repel the Purifier and the fleet she personally commanded while being cut by the Mirror Sea, they already wielded the sword and even fully mastered it."

"But so what? They're still kids!"

"They are at least 18 years old. They have chosen this path, so they should be prepared." This time it was Xiang who spoke, and she supported Germany.

"Wichita, say something!" Mogami was really anxious.
